The wonderful life of modern women in ancient times

"Ying'er, you should have a good rest. Dad will go check on the thief now and will definitely catch him and avenge you!"

When Mr. Li saw that his son looked drowsy after drinking the medicine, he spoke to him in a gentle voice.

Li Ying nodded drowsily and fell asleep!

"Take good care of the young master!"

Mr. Li gently tucked the quilt for his son and gave instructions to Liu'er, the maid who was serving on the side.

Then he turned and left the inner room.

Mrs. Li glanced at Li Ying lying on the bed, then followed her husband.

"Mother, I will go investigate Ying'er's case now. You have been here for a long time. Go back and have a good rest. Don't tire yourself out!"

After Mr. Li came out of the inner room, he bowed and gently advised the old lady.

The old lady nodded to her son and stood up with the help of Nanny Li!

She glanced towards the inner room, then said to all her grandchildren, "Don't bother your eldest brother these days. Let him rest quietly for a few days. Now go away!"

After saying that, he turned around and instructed Li Ma Ma who was standing beside him, "Li Ma Ma, you stay and serve the young master. When the young master is fully recovered in a few days, you can come back to serve in my courtyard!"

Nanny Li was her dowry maid and was loyal to her. She could only feel at ease knowing that she was looking after her eldest grandson for the next few days!

"Old slave, you obey!"

Nanny Li bowed to the old lady and escorted her out of the yard before turning back and going into the room to look after the eldest young master.

Everyone bowed in front of the courtyard gate, saw the old lady off, and then returned to their own courtyards.

A quarter of an hour later, in the open space in front of the study in the front yard, all the servants, except for the servant who served the master personally last night, gathered here.

Everyone knelt on the ground, not daring to move or speak, for fear that the master would vent his anger on them because of the eldest young master's matter.

Master Li sat firmly in his chair, his face livid, and he squinted his eyes at the servants kneeling in front of him for a while.

Then he winked at the butler standing beside him.

The housekeeper understood, stepped forward, stood in front of everyone, cleared his throat, and shouted loudly: "Anyone who left your room last night, please stand up!"

After waiting for a while, no one moved, and Mr. Li frowned unhappily!

Seeing this, the housekeeper immediately said, "If you take the initiative to come forward, after the master orders people to investigate, if the young master's matter has nothing to do with you, I will let you go! If you don't take the initiative to come forward and I find out, no matter whether you have anything to do with the young master's matter or not, I will never let you off easily!"

Upon hearing this, the people kneeling on the ground looked at each other, and gradually some of them stood up, walked out of the crowd trembling, and knelt aside!

The follower who poured the night fragrance yesterday seemed not to have heard the housekeeper's words. He knelt in the back corner, as if he was stuck to the ground, with his head lowered, motionless!

No one saw him when he came out last night, so he wouldn't stand there like an idiot!

A quarter of an hour later, the housekeeper saw that no one moved, so he asked, "Are there any more?"

After waiting for a while and seeing that no one came out, he said, "These people stay, and the rest of you can go away!"

"and many more!"

After hearing what the housekeeper said, everyone was about to get up and leave, but when they heard the master ask them to wait, they quickly knelt back down.

Then he heard his master say coldly: "The man who patrolled yesterday stays!"

Li Da and his companions felt a jolt in their hearts and knelt where they were without moving, while the others bowed and retreated.

Mr. Li sat on the chair, without saying anything, tapping his fingers on the armrest!

There was silence all around!

All I heard was the sound of Master Li knocking on the armrest!

This sound seemed to knock on the hearts of Li Da and others!

Sweat kept flowing down their foreheads and falling onto the stone floor in front of them. One could almost hear the sound of the sweat hitting the ground!

They were drinking secretly last night and didn't patrol seriously!

The master never takes the lives of his servants seriously. If he gets angry this time and pursues the matter, it is very likely that their lives will be lost!

Thinking of this, Li Da and his companions became even more frightened. They trembled all over and almost fell to the ground!

Although the followers around were nervous, they just went to the toilet at night and it had nothing to do with the young master's matter, so they did not feel guilty.

They were just afraid that the master would vent his anger on them, so they just knelt quietly on the ground, unlike Li Da and his companions, who were trembling all over. After a while, sweat kept dripping down their faces and necks, and the ground in front of everyone was wet!

"Li Da, do you have anything to report? Did you find anything unusual during your patrol last night?"

Master Li looked at their guilty expressions and asked coldly.

"Master, we didn't find anyone sneaking in last night. Everything is normal!"

Li Da spoke tremblingly. He was the leader of the group.

"Oh! Everything is fine! No one broke in! How did the young master get out? Could he have flown out by himself and landed in the dung bucket, then flew to the tree and hung himself there? Did the dung in front of the mansion gate also fly over by itself and form that sentence? Hmm?"

Mr. Li suddenly became furious, his eyes widened, his beard raised, he slapped the armrest of the chair, stood up, pointed at Li Da and the others and shouted angrily.

Seeing Li Da and his men lying on the ground, trembling all over, they didn't say a word!

Master Li shouted angrily again, "Are you all mute? Tell me! How did you patrol yesterday? You didn't even notice that a living person was taken out! I paid you to be a cooking bucket!"

"I know I was wrong! I know I was wrong! I shouldn't have drunk while on night patrol and messed up my work! Please forgive me this time, sir. I won't dare to do it again! I will do my job well!"

Li Da and his men kowtowed and begged for mercy! After a while, their foreheads were broken and bloody!

The people kneeling nearby looked at the blood-stained ground in front of Li Da and the others and felt cold all over. They lowered their heads and eyes, not daring to look over there again!

"Forgive you? My son has suffered so much, and our Li family has lost so much face, and you still want me to forgive you?"

Whenever Mr. Li thought about his son being hung on the tree in the morning, naked and smelly, and being seen by so many people in the city, he couldn't suppress his anger!

At this moment, I just want to chop these sneaky servants to death to vent my anger!
