She had run too fast just now and didn't know how far she had run. Lin Yuxi looked around, her mind was blank about this place. She probably had never been here before.

After walking for about a cup of tea, they arrived at Xiyuan, her residence.

Lin Yuxi was at a loss whether to laugh or cry as she looked at the house that was about to collapse. Although she had prepared herself mentally, she did not expect that the situation would be worse than she had imagined.

Is this the Xiyuan where Lin Yuxi has lived for more than ten years? It's simply a slum!

It sounds nice to call it the West Garden, but in fact it is just an abandoned garden far away from the main house.

Luyun helped Lin Yuxi walk into the small courtyard..., first wiped the stone bench with her sleeve, then let Lin Yuxi sit down, and then made tea for her.

After Lu Yun left, Lin Yuxi closed her eyes and reorganized the information in her mind.

The 21st century is a world that emphasizes science, and the stories of ghosts and gods are all fictitious. She has never believed in this, but she didn't expect that she would actually encounter one!

She laughed to herself.

Forget it, just make the best of it!

Lin Yuxi, fourteen years old, was born to Aunt Song, who had a difficult delivery. Although she was finally born and survived, she became ill due to excessive blood loss.

After holding on for two years, he finally passed away.

When Aunt Song was still alive, she might have felt a little warmth, and others would have respected her as the Second Miss. But since Aunt Song's death, Lin Yuxi has been known as a jinx and a jinx.

Because of this, her relatives disliked her and arranged for her mother to live with her in the remote Xiyuan.

At the beginning, I had a mother-in-law to take care of me, so life was not so hard.

However, when she was six years old, her mother died of illness, and she became a nobody.

It is conceivable how miserable Lin Yuxi's life was afterwards.

Luyun was also assigned to her at that time, and her life did not change after she came.

It was hard for Luyun to follow her. She suffered a lot of bullying and insults, and even the original owner beat and scolded her a lot.

This girl is also a loyal one. No matter how hard or wronged she was, she never had any unfaithful thoughts. Thinking of this, Lin Yuxi couldn't help but feel a little relieved for the original owner.

After a while, Lu Yun came back with a bitter face, holding a set of tea sets in her hands. She looked at Lin Yuxi with an apologetic look:

"Miss, I'm sorry, we are out of tea in the garden. I have boiled some water. I..."

Green Cloud's voice became quieter and quieter, until it was almost inaudible.

Lin Yuxi couldn't help but smile after hearing this. It was not a big deal, just that there was no tea. Besides, she didn't have the habit of drinking tea. Look how aggrieved she was.

I couldn't help but shake my head: "It doesn't matter."

Considering the years of oppression the original owner had suffered, the good things in the West Garden must have been stolen long ago, so it was already good enough to leave behind a set of tea sets.

Lin Yuxi picked up the clay teacup that Luyun had filled for her. It was clay in color, roughly made, and had a crack on the rim.

He sighed in his heart and took a sip of water.

Lu Yun stood nervously aside, wanting to see Lin Yuxi's expression, but she didn't dare to do it openly and could only observe her out of the corner of her eyes from time to time.

She was afraid that Lin Yuxi would blame her for being useless, and she was relieved when she saw that Lin Yuxi did not show any dissatisfaction from beginning to end.

But soon she felt awkward again. This was the first time she and her master had been together for such a long time, and she was a little uncomfortable.

Moreover, Lin Yuxi's silence made her feel a little uneasy.

"Sit down"

Lin Yuxi saw Luyun twisting her clothes with her hands, looking frightened, and smiled at her.

After hearing this, Lu Yun waved his hands and shook his head like a rattle:

"The slaves dare not."

How could a servant like her sit on an equal footing with her master? That was disrespectful! She wouldn't dare to do that even if she had a hundred guts.

Seeing her frightened look, Lin Yuxi did not force her, but just frowned at her self-proclaimed title. For a moment, she could not accept such a deep-rooted class concept.

"Miss, are you hungry? How about I go and get you some food?"

Lin Yuxi raised her eyebrows and looked at her steadily. After a long while, she said:

"No need, just stay by my side."

In fact, she was indeed hungry.

But those people in the kitchen who looked down on her always made things difficult for her and even maliciously withheld her food.

It would be strange if Luyun could get anything good if he went there.

Lu Yun had been very good to her, and she wouldn't let her be trampled under someone else's feet. Lu Yun naturally knew what Lin Yuxi was thinking, and she couldn't help but feel moved.

Looking at the skinny Lin Yuxi, Lu Yun felt distressed.

"You are thirsty too, drink a glass of water first."

Lin Yuxi picked up another cup and filled it up for her herself.

Lu Yun was flattered: "I am not thirsty."

After saying that, he swallowed hard.

Lin Yuxi saw that she was thirsty, but the concept of being a servant constrained her. It has always been slaves who serve their masters. How could a master pour water for a slave?

Knowing that Lu Yun would not dare to break the rules, her face immediately darkened:

"I told you to drink, so you drank. Why are you hesitating?"

Seeing that his master was angry, Luyun dared not be negligent anymore and quickly drank the water. After a sip of water, his throat was no longer dry.

After thanking Lin Yuxi, he stood beside her with his head lowered, waiting for his master's instructions.

At this time, an uninvited guest came over, it was a woman.

"Ouch! I was wondering why you had missed so much work today. It turns out you've been hiding here to be lazy."

The woman entered the small courtyard, glanced at Lin Yuxi with disdain, and without any greeting, she went to pull Lu Yun and pinched her secretly.

Looking at her clothes, with her sleeves rolled up to her arms and some water stains on the hem, Lin Yuxi knew her identity.

"I...I'm going to work now, miss..."

In fact, she had wanted to tell the young lady a long time ago that she had only washed half of the clothes today.

If she couldn't finish today's work, she would have no food. She wanted to tell the young lady, but she couldn't open her mouth.

Lin Yuxi narrowed her eyes. Seeing that he dared to do something in front of her, she immediately poured the tea that she had just filled over there, and it landed right on the back of the woman's hand.

The water had just boiled and was still scalding hot, and the woman's hands immediately turned red.

The woman screamed in pain and stared at Lin Yuxi. She wanted to take revenge, but was hampered by her identity.

"Miss!"

Luyun was also startled and couldn't help but worry.

This is Mrs. Zhang from the laundry room. She is a hot-tempered and vengeful person, and she is also the wife of Chef Zhang.

The master has offended her now, and he will never get what he deserves in the future. If she whispers something in Chef Zhang's ear again, they will have to starve.

Lin Yuxi waved her hand to shut her up, then smiled at Mrs. Zhang and said:

"Luyun is my maid. I don't remember what work I assigned to her?"

Lin Yuxi was right. Luyun was her personal maid, so it was not their turn to order her around.

However, the original owner, Lin Yuxi, had been a good-for-nothing for so many years and had to rely on working to survive, not to mention that she was just a girl.

Normally, she never cared about Luyun's life or death, and they were used to ordering her around.

Now that Lin Yuxi asked him this, he was speechless for a moment.

"It's Luyun's turn to be on duty in the laundry room today. It's her turn to finish the work."

Mrs. Zhang knew she was in the wrong, but she was not afraid of Lin Yuxi, so she just fought back, feeling very justified.

Lin Yuxi blinked her big round eyes in an innocent manner and uttered "oh" meaningfully, with the elongated tail tone expressing her doubt.
