Chapter 98: Servants

When Li Tian saw him chasing after him, he ran directly into the room without thinking, and Gou Wencai behind him also chased after him.

There was no way to run, but Li Tian didn't panic at all and took out the small sword just given by Hou Qingbai from his arms.

"Brother Wencai, don't come any closer, be careful of my treasure having no eyes!" Li Tian waved his small sword and threatened with a smile.

Unexpectedly, Gou Wencai was not frightened at all. He had just heard that this small jade sword could only be used for self-defense, not against the enemy.

He stepped forward and grabbed Li Tian's small sword, then sat down on the bed, holding the small sword in his hand and looking at it carefully.

Hey, I took it away from you? Li Tianxin said.

To be honest, he was also very greedy for this treasure. Who wouldn't be greedy for a cultivator's treasure? But since he had already given it to Li Tian, ​​he didn't think about it.

He raised his head and looked at Li Tiandao with a hint of envy, "I'm so lucky to have been stepped on by you. The master of the palace actually gave you such a treasure."

With that said, he threw the small sword back to Li Tian, ​​"Keep it well and don't show it off in front of others. Be careful of bad people's intentions."

Li Tian chuckled, took the small sword and put it back in his pocket, then looked at Gou Wencai.

"Since they gave me a treasure, it means you also have it. They will definitely not favor one thing over another. Please take out your treasure and show it to me."

He was not stupid, and he immediately guessed that Gou Wencai must also have treasures donated by Hou Qingbai and others, so he asked.

Gou Wencai did not hide it, so he took out the bracelet Qing Miaoer gave him.

He complained, "It's far inferior to yours. I'm just an ordinary bracelet. My wife asked me to give it to my future wife."

Li Tian laughed loudly, "It turns out it's a woman's thing. It can't be considered as a gift to you. It's just for you to keep."

He revealed it unceremoniously.

Gou Wencai curled his lips, a little unhappy, "Qiang, you are their adopted son, I am redundant."

Feeling his emotions, Li Tian grinned and said, "Show me your bracelet."

Without hesitation, Gou Wencai handed over the bracelet in his hand, not knowing what he wanted to do.

Li Tian took the bracelet and felt a cold touch in his hand, followed by a hint of warmth.

The small sword is as sharp as Hou Qingbai, but the bracelet is as gentle as Qing Miao'er. This is Li Tian's feeling.

Then he took out the small sword from his pocket and threw it to Gou Wencai.

Under Gou Wencai's confused expression, he continued, "I like this bracelet very much. I'll exchange it with you."

"Ah?" Gou Wencai couldn't believe it.

Li Tian was actually willing to exchange that precious little sword for an ordinary bracelet, which he never expected.

"How can this be done? This is a treasure! Are you stupid and want to trade it with me?"

Of course Li Tian also knew that this was a loss, and it was the blood mother's loss, but one still has to have a beginning and an end. After all, it was because of Gou Wencai that he got this treasure.

"Although the treasure is a treasure, it's useless for me to ask for it. I won't fight with others, but you, after becoming the master of the palace, if someone doesn't like you, it's good to have a treasure to defend yourself.

, Besides, it’s not because of you that I got this thing, so don’t be polite to me. Anyway, I like this bracelet very much. It doesn’t look cheap. It’s a sure-fire way to flirt with girls. Jie Jie Jie.”

Tian Bao said with a wave of his hand, and then put the bracelet in his pocket.

.

Gou Wencai was stunned. He also understood what Li Tian was thinking. That was what he said, but it was another matter that he was really willing to exchange.

"This... is not good..." Gou Wencai silently put the small sword into his pocket...

"Okay, in this case, let's just think that your talented brother owes you a favor. If you need anything in the future, just tell me!"

Seeing him accept the small sword, Li Tiansui nodded and couldn't help but sigh in his heart for his selflessness.

At this time, he also thought that it was time to get to the point.

He sat down next to Gou Wencai, put his hands on his shoulders and said with a smile, "Let's stop talking politely. By the way, where do they live? Look how good they are to us.

When we have time, we will buy some gifts and go visit them."

Now is the best time to jump in. Gou Wencai will definitely tell everything he knows.

Just as Li Tian thought.

"They live in a large manor in the far west of the town, but they are expected to leave in the next two days. Today they came to see me for the last time." Gou Wencai said slowly, his tone still a little downcast.

Li Tian was confused, he didn't know about Hou Qingbai's plan to leave.

"Leave? Why should we leave?" he couldn't help but ask.

"Who knows, they just said they wanted to go out for a walk. After all, they are not ordinary people. After all, the family property of the Marquis Mansion is just an external possession to them." Gou Wencai shook his head and replied.

Li Tian suddenly fell silent, as if he was thinking about something.

There is no need to complete the mission? Even the main owner has left, so this mission should be automatically canceled, right? Thinking of this, Li Tian is still a little excited. Not only can he earn a bracelet from this trip, but he can also join the Academy of Excellence when he returns.

What a blessing to the beautiful world!

He should be able to pack his luggage and prepare to go back that night. Thinking of this, he wanted to tell Zhao Yinyun and the others the news, so that they would not have to waste any more thoughts and save unnecessary trouble.

"Okay, since you are taking over the Hou Mansion, you must have a lot of things to do, so I won't bother you anymore and go out for a walk." Li Tian said and stood up.

He thought that he didn't seem to have seen Zhao Yinyun and the others today, and he didn't know where they went to work.

Gou Wencai nodded after hearing this, saying that he really had something to do. He wanted to find Director Jia to take over the affairs of the house, so as to save him from being in a hurry.

Then they went out separately. Gou Wencai went to find Director Jia, while Li Tian went to find Hou Fang.

He walked to the yard, looked at Hou Fang who was sweeping the floor absentmindedly, and quietly approached behind him.

Then he reached out and patted him on the back, "Brother Fang."

Hou Fang turned his head in excitement and saw Li Tian with a smile on his face.

"It's you, you scared me." He breathed a sigh of relief, stretched out his hand and patted his chest.

"What are you doing? Why are you so absent-minded?" Li Tian walked to him with a smile, and then took the broom in his hand.

"What else can I do? I'm just thinking about your brother." Hou Fang said directly without treating Li Tian as an outsider.

"Haha, you're talking about Brother Wencai becoming the master of the palace. Isn't this a good thing? Then you will be able to work more easily in the future, and he won't be too strict with you." Li Tian quickly helped Gou Wencai.

Some kind words.

Hou Fang nodded in agreement, "That's what I said, but why is your brother like this?"

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

Why did you become the master of the palace? I just can't figure it out. Logically speaking, it should be handed over to the chief manager. Of course, I'm just curious and I'm not saying bad things about your brother. Don't complain later."

Seeing his appearance, Li Tian laughed out loud, "How can you bear to lose this palace to that general manager? How could I remember that someone ran away as soon as they heard the name of the general manager last night, hahaha."

Hou Fang scratched his head in embarrassment. He was indeed a little scared, but who wouldn't be scared when he saw the general manager? Only people like Li Tian who had never seen the general manager were not afraid.

"It's actually quite good to be in your brother's hands, hehe, but I think I can also fight for it..." Hou Fang said weakly.

Li Tian knew. It turned out that he was not questioning Gou Wencai's becoming the master of the palace, but he couldn't understand why he, who was also a servant of the Hou family, did not have this opportunity.

"That's easy to say. I'm going to talk to Brother Wencai now and let you be the master of the palace for two days." After saying that, Li Tian turned around and walked towards Manager Jia, pretending to go there to find Gou Wencai.

But Hou Fang had quick eyesight and quick hands to stop him.

"Tsk, I was just kidding, you really want to go." He rolled his eyes at Li Tian, ​​feeling panicked.

"Hehe, I'm kidding you too." Li Tian said with a smile.

At this time, Hou Fang suddenly became nervous again, slowly approached Li Tian, ​​and whispered, "My dear, I want you to help me with something."

"What's the matter? Just tell me." Li Tian was curious about what Hou Fang wanted to do and what he could help with. Most likely it was related to Gou Wencai.

Hou Fang rubbed his hands and felt a little embarrassed, "Hey, it's like this. You also know that we were sold to the mansion. We have room and board in the mansion, so we have no money to work every day. It's not like

Your cousin Wang Sanshi has a salary like that, but... can you help us and give us a little salary, even one silver coin a month."

Li Tian really didn't know about this. It turned out that the servants who were sold to the Hou Mansion didn't even have any income. Compared to the people in Pingan Town who couldn't afford to eat, Li Tian felt that they had more human rights than them.

At least they are still free.

"Why don't you just talk to Brother Wencai? You two usually have such a good relationship." Li Tian asked doubtfully.

"Isn't he already the master of the palace? I'm embarrassed to say this, so just do me a favor..."

From the moment they were sold to the house and signed the deed of sale, they already knew that they would never be able to raise their heads again in this life. When Gou Wencai was still a servant with them before, he could still talk to each other and make friends as equals, but

Now that Gou Wen has become the master of the palace, they are no longer qualified to bargain with their master. To be more serious, their status is not even comparable to that of dogs.

This is the servility that has been engraved in their bones, and it is also the concept that the General Manager has been instilling in them before. Therefore, they are so afraid of the General Manager.

Li Tian couldn't help but feel sad in his heart. Although he had been in poverty since childhood, at least he still had hope, while Hou Fang and the others didn't even have hope.

Fortunately, it was Gou Wencai who took over the Hou Mansion, and Li Tian knew that he would not treat Hou Fang and the others badly.

He reached out and patted Hou Fang on the shoulder, and said with a smile, "These are all trivial matters, just take care of them on me."

Hou Fang smiled happily when he saw this. He felt that his brothers were finally coming out. They didn't talk about being superior to others. They just wanted to be ordinary people. "You don't have to force it too hard. You can just mention it casually."

,hey-hey."
