Chapter 631 Burns' Maid
Chapter 631: Burns' Maid
Perhaps to express her lingering love for her husband and to prove that their feelings did not end with the death of one of them - Ms. Burns continued to live in the Field old house for a long time after her husband passed away.
She often attends various banquets and accepts invitations of different levels: last time she spent two thousand pounds to buy a piano that was said to have extremely high historical value, and the next day, she spent three hundred pounds to invest in a goldsmith's "crazy fantasy".
In the eyes of those who are "seeking something" and have dreams, Ms. Burns is a generous and "polite" investor: perhaps the best investor in the City of London.
She rarely participates in decision-making in investment projects, meddles in matters she does not understand, and never pretends to be a wise man and talks to professionals - she only requires that her money be spent where it should be spent, regardless of whether the result is a profit or a loss.
Women envied her, but men thought highly of her.
- Although they said privately that Burns was not generous and considerate, she was just not smart enough to pay special attention to her own wealth after investing in each project.
But on the surface, she is welcome.
Compared to the Secret Party, she is closer to the Gray Party.
Those parties composed of businessmen and young new scholars.
'If we're going to get in there and find her husband's privy vault, we'd better catch a tongue first.'
Sometimes, even the master knows where his servants live day and night better than they do.
Rose said this to Halida.
then.
Early morning to late evening.
An unfortunate elderly fellow was knocked unconscious in the filthy alley leading to the fish market.
The woman's name was Benny.
Her husband's surname not only gave her a nice family and two pairs of children, but also an opportunity to serve a wealthy family - as a "powerful" bank teller, Mr. Binnie met many noble people in his career.
With his honey-tongued tongue that could even talk about forest suitability when seeing a brown bear, he soon found an opportunity for his wife to get close to him - the cousin of the lover of the younger brother of the wife of a client of a friend's boss in the salon.
He was like a spider slowly spinning its web, patiently bringing himself closer to his goal step by step.
soon.
His wife was introduced to Mrs. Burns' house as a maid after going through many selections.
Maids were nothing special; they were second only to slaves who could disappear at night in the most raped, underpaid, and abused profession of the day—but the Burns maids were different.
hostess.
A mistress who inherited the property of three husbands.
"If you can become her personal maid, or even have a say... you know Burns has a good relationship with many of the masters in Paloyemed..."
Her husband's teachings enabled her to always maintain a high level of enthusiasm for this job, and her good mental outlook stood out among the servants.
not to mention.
Her husband works in a bank.
This is much better than those servants who were sold all day long, had no father or mother, and didn't even know a word - Ms. Burns put her in charge of the kitchen, the most important part of the whole mansion.
This is also a reward for 'relationship'.
From that day on, the Binnies' expenses became smaller.
At least in terms of food and clothing, there was no need to go to the store to buy many things - there were always all kinds of cakes or relatively new cloth that inexplicably appeared in the wardrobe and kitchen cover at home...
It was also from that day that Mrs. Binney felt that her husband was interested in her again...
"That's not what I want to hear, ma'am."
A woman wearing a wide hood squatted in front of her, and the blade in her hand rubbed lightly against her face, almost ready to cut her to blood - her hands and feet were tied and she was taken to a haystack behind a rotten wall that no one visited.
robbers.
The bloated woman struggled and sweat broke out all over.
"Answer my questions, Benny. Then you can go home to see your children and husband." The woman screamed in fear: "Let me go! I won't tell anyone!"
"But you've said a lot," the man in the hood chuckled, grinning in Binny's ears. "Does your wife know that you steal cakes and new cloth to feed your children and make clothes?"
She suddenly stood up and stepped on the place that could miraculously satisfy people.
Grind it hard.
"You shameless liar! Your master hired you, but you took money out of her pocket to feed your children and husband! You don't have an ounce of morality! Now, you're still talking to me about morality?!"
Benny struggled even harder, and argued loudly: "What I said is, the things that Madam doesn't want... those should be thrown away..."
boom.
The bamboo basket next to the haystack was kicked away.
Some scattered pieces of strawberry sea cake cut into small triangles fell into the mud.
"We followed you all the way, thief. You left Field House and headed for the East End - but we didn't see you go into any pastry shop... These cakes, your silly wife didn't want them, too?"
"Now, what's the difference between us?"
The woman squatted down again and patted her face with her palms.
"How about writing a letter and then throwing you to the patrolman?"
It turns out.
A maid is supposed to know her own residence better than her master.
Under the threat of two thugs, Binny 'reluctantly' revealed the secret: detailed information about the Field old house.
The function and location of each room, the direction of the corridor, the number of servants and the approximate route of the night watchman - including those gentlemen who "didn't know what they were used for" and who stood guard around the villa with a stern face all day long.
and also.
Master Field's private vault.
"In the lady's bedroom. After the master died, some paper rolls and unpacked wooden boxes were packed into the lady's bedroom... There wasn't much."
Binny said.
"It'll fill a closet at most."
She began to realize that these two people were not the thieves who wanted to steal candlesticks or lampshades to sell as she had guessed - they had a bigger plan, and they might even take Mrs. Burns' life...
"Please!"
Benny rolled over, twisted around like a maggot wriggling in a haystack, and lay down at the man's feet, sticking his butt out and wailing:
"Do not kill me!"
She no longer dared to look up into the black and wide hood, and even feared that the other party's ears were not working well, and she shouted again and again, shouting "I told you everything" -
Rose was delighted.
Obviously, Burns could not have hired a ritualist. Rose was happy about the "location" of the ritualists mentioned by Binnie - if the owner did not allow the ritualists to enter the room, this could only prove one thing:
She hates or is wary of these "supermen" who possess great powers.
If that's the case, why would she hire them?
Is it her own idea, or is there some other reason?
Burns was closely monitored for a period of time by Scotland Yard police and Inspectorate detectives...
Who would attack her?
For Rose, every adventure begins with curiosity...
And the excitement behind the curiosity that makes the heart pump wildly.
"Let me see, what secrets are you hiding..."
