Three girlfriends traveled through ancient times and killed people

Chapter 11 Falling from the Sky 7

In the early morning, everything is quiet. A ray of light appears on the eastern horizon, carefully soaking the light blue sky, and a new day gradually moves over from afar.

Liu Rumei stretched lazily.

She thought she wouldn't be able to sleep in a new place, but unexpectedly she slept soundly.

"Miss, are you awake?" A maid called outside the door.

She was called by the palace's steward to work in the palace today.

I heard that he was serving a girl.

Everyone knows that Prince Xiao is not interested in women. The palace is filled with men only. Now a woman has moved in. Everyone is curious about what this woman looks like and how she can break the prince's habit of not being interested in women.

Liu Rumei thought about the prince's request to find a maid to serve her last night, and thought it must be the one at the door. "Wake up, come in!"

"Your servant Xiaomi greets the young lady." The little girl knelt down.

"Get up quickly, don't kneel to me, I don't want to shorten my life." Liu Rumei quickly helped Xiaomi up.

Xiaomi stood up and glanced at Liu Rumei timidly.

"You are so beautiful, girl." Although the girl was wearing men's clothes, her long black hair hung vertically in front of her, making her look like a fairy from heaven. No wonder Prince Xiao, who hated women, would fall at the girl's feet.

"Thank you for the compliment, you are cute too." Liu Rumei pinched Xiaomi's face.

Xiaomi is about fourteen or fifteen years old, with a chubby face and very cute.

Xiaomi was caught off guard by Liu Rumei's pinch and her face turned as red as a boiled shrimp.

"girl…"

"My last name is Liu Rumei, you can call me Sister Rumei."

"I dare not." The little girl knelt down again.

How could she, a maid, get on good terms with her master and sisters? Moreover, Miss Liu might very well become the Princess of Xiao.

She can't afford it.

"Get up first, and don't kneel down all the time. That's not acceptable here." People in ancient times were troublesome, they would kneel down all the time.

"Yes, Miss Liu."

"The young lady is awake. I am the housekeeper of the palace, Yunshui. The prince ordered me to bring something to the young lady. Is it convenient for the young lady?"

The butler was about fifty years old and had a friendly smile on his face.

When the butler heard that the prince had brought a woman back, he was extremely happy. He had no children and he had raised the prince by himself. He had long regarded the prince as his own child.

It's not that the prince doesn't like women, but that he can't get close to them. He thought the prince would live out his life alone, but unexpectedly, with the blessing of God, there is finally a woman who can get close to him. He is happy for the prince.

"It's convenient. Thank you for your hard work, Butler Yun." There was nothing inconvenient for her.

"It's not hard, it's not hard." Butler Yun smiled happily.

"Bring the stuff in."

The servants waiting outside the door carried all the things in.

There are eight big boxes in total.

"Open."

Gold, silver, jewelry, clothes, shoes, everything is jazzy.

Liu Rumei took a quick look.

I thought to myself, he is indeed a local emperor, very generous.

The housekeeper saw this and thought to himself that the girl was a patient person.

If others saw so much gold, silver and jewelry, their eyes would probably light up.

"Young lady, please take a look at this yard to see if there is anything missing. I will ask someone to get it done right away."

"There's nothing missing. There are enough things." She was only staying here temporarily, not permanently.

"Then use it first, girl. If it's not enough, tell me again."

"Come in."

Four more little girls came in from outside the door.

"Miss, these maids are here to serve you. Why don't you come over and meet her?"

"This servant has seen the young lady."

Several maids were ready to kneel down and acknowledge their master.

"Don't kneel, I can't bear it." Liu Rumei quickly stopped him.

"I don't need so many people here, please let them go back!"

"No, girl, please spare my life."

"Please, girl, spare your life."

The maids' faces turned pale with fright, and they all fell to their knees with a thud.

No, what did she do? Why are these people so afraid of her?

"I'm not going to kill you. Get up first and we can talk."

The housekeeper said, "Miss, you don't know, they were all bought by the old slave. If they are sent back to the hands of the human traffickers, they will die."

“……”In the ancient times, human life was worthless!

"Please, young lady, give us a way out and leave us here!" A maid was the first to kowtow.

The sound, "dong dong dong", made Liu Rumei's heart ache.

When one person kowtows, others will follow suit.

The four maids kowtowed to her together.

"Stop knocking, stop knocking, can't I ask you all to stay?"

"Thank you girl."

"Get up first!"

No one dared to move and they just knelt.

"I told you to get up. If you didn't listen, don't stay." Liu Rumei pretended to be angry.

Upon hearing this, several maids quickly stood up, fearing that they would be sent back if they were slow to get up.

"Miss, this is the indenture of these maids, please keep it."

Liu Rumei took it and held it in her hand. There were five in total, including Xiaomi's.

The indentureship of selling one's body is different in ancient times and modern times. In modern times, human trafficking is illegal and the offender will be sentenced to jail, but in ancient times, human trafficking was indeed a serious business.

"Then I'll accept it. Thank you for your kindness, butler."

This person is the palace's steward, so it's better to be polite.

"Miss, this is serious. This is what an old slave should do."

The more Butler Yun looked at Liu Rumei, the more satisfied he became. This girl was a kind-hearted woman, and a perfect match for their prince.

"From now on, you guys should serve the girl well. Do you understand?"

"Listen clearly."

"Since you all want to stay, I, Liu Rumei, will make a rule for you first. You are not allowed to kneel to me in the future. Do you hear me?" She really couldn't stand these people kneeling at every turn. She was a modern person and she was afraid of shortening her lifespan.

"Yes, Miss Liu."

"What are your names? What can you do? Please introduce yourselves!" Since she was going to stay, she should know their names, right?

"I am a little servant who can do needlework."

"My servant Xiaolian can wash clothes and cook."

"My servant Xiaobei, I am strong and can do rough work."

"My servant Xiaobi can wash clothes and cook."

They are all children from poor families, and children from poor families have to grow up early.

"Is there anyone who can read?" She had to find someone to register this pile of gold, silver and jewelry. When she had money in the future, she could return it to the "local tyrant" and these would be considered as loans.

Several people shook their heads, saying that their family was very poor and had no money to send them to school.

"Is there no one who can read?" Liu Rumei had a headache.

"Miss Liu, I know a few words." Xiaomi stood up. Her father used to be a storyteller. When she was a child, she read the Four Books and Five Classics with her father.

If her father had not offended someone, she would not have been sold.

"That's great. From now on, these gold, silver and jewelry will be in your care."

"Miss Liu asked me to manage the accounts?" Xiaomi didn't dare to question it.

"Yes!"

"Thank you, Miss Liu. Xiaomi will definitely not let you down for your trust in me."

"Ah."

"Can you comb your hair?"

The little girl whose name was called nodded and said, "I can."

"Okay, then you can stay by my side and help me comb my hair from now on!"

"Yes, thank you Miss Liu." Being able to comb the master's hair is the status of a first-class maid.

"Xiao Bi and Xiao Lian will be responsible for the laundry and cooking!"

"Yes, Miss Liu."
