The system asked me to chase his wife
Chapter 17 The Little Maid Becomes a Big Maid
Seeing Wu Wendong glaring at him, Qiao Yuandong spoke softly, "It's been hot lately, and it's easy to get angry. Master Wu, please have some tea."
Wu Wendong is a gangster, but not a brainless one. He knows who can be bullied and who cannot be bullied.
Besides, after all this time, he was almost sober. When Qiao Yuandong tapped him gently, he just hummed and said, "I'm not thirsty!"
It would be strange if I wasn't thirsty. I've been yelling for a long time and my mouth is already dry now.
But Wu Wendong was very angry at the moment and had made up his mind not to eat a single bite of rice or water from the Xiang family!
Qiao Yuandong did not try to persuade him further, and said indifferently: "In that case, I will settle accounts with Master Wu."
Wu Wendong glared again: "What account?"
"Of course, it's the damage to my table, chairs, benches, cups, plates and bowls."
Wu Wendong sneered: "What do I think of it? It's just a little money. Even if I smash your house, I can afford it. Your Duke's Mansion is having a hard time, so it's not impossible for me to give you some money to help you."
"And there is also compensation for the prince's mental damage!"
A crisp voice sounded in the corner. Wu Wendong looked over with gritted teeth. Who else could it be but the girl who had quarreled with him?
Xiang Xiu'an was called out for no reason. He pointed at himself blankly and asked Xia Mang, "What fee?"
Facing everyone's puzzled gazes, Xia Mang said in a clear voice: "You insulted the prince in public at the prince's birthday banquet and even tried to kill him with a sword, causing him irreparable damage.
Mental trauma will most likely cause lifelong psychological trauma to the prince, and he will be responsible for the rest of his life, so he must pay three times the mental damages."
Xia Mang looked at everyone, counted in his mind, and said, "Three hundred thousand taels!"
When these words were spoken, some people could not help but gasp. Qiao Yuandong even glanced sideways, thinking that she was such an ignorant girl.
Three hundred thousand taels are enough to buy a dozen large houses in the capital.
Wu Wendong was extremely angry at Xia Mang's exorbitant demands: "You are blackmailing me! How dare you, you daring slave, to blackmail me!"
When Xia Mang was scolded, he was about to roll up his sleeves and scold back. Seeing this, Qiao Yuandong quickly stopped him.
"Wait a minute, Master Wu. You just need to compensate me for what I just said."
Wu Wendong's expression eased slightly after hearing this.
Qiao Yuandong glanced at Xia Mang obscurely, signaling her not to interrupt again, and then said: "But what should we do if Master Wu holds a sword and wants to kill the prince of our mansion?"
Wu Wendong was unhappy: "Isn't he fine?"
The lady said calmly: "If it weren't for the help of my servants who snatched your sword, it would be hard to say whether my grandson is a good or bad person."
Wu Wendong felt a little guilty. Now that he was almost sober, he finally remembered what he had done just now.
He was too embarrassed to argue with the woman anymore, so he buried his head and looked like he accepted the punishment.
"Okay! I accept what happened today. You two ladies are the only ones who can tell me how to deal with you. Even if you chop me back with a sword, I won't complain!"
"Mr. Wu, you're joking. We are not the kind of people who would always call for fighting and killing." Qiao Yuandong looked at Wu Wendong, and the light in his eyes gradually became cold.
"As long as Master Wu sincerely apologizes to Xiu'an and admits his mistake, this matter can be put behind us."
The lady sitting nearby listened to Qiao Yuandong's decision and nodded secretly. After all, the Xiang family and the Wu family were both noble families, so there was no need to make things too ugly.
To put it bluntly, this was just a fight between the younger generation, and asking Wu Wendong to apologize and admit his mistake would save his face.
Moreover, judging from the injuries of the two children, it was clear that Wu Wendong suffered more.
Wu Wendong was a child who was raised in the palm of the hand of the Loyal and Brave Marquis's Mansion. When had he ever bowed his head and submitted to others?
Qiao Yuandong's arrangement was even more unpleasant than killing him. He immediately glared at the men and said through gritted teeth, "What if I don't admit my mistake today?"
Before Qiao Yuandong could say anything, the old lady spoke first: "If you refuse to admit your mistake, I will have to act like a bad person and take care of you on behalf of your grandfather!"
As soon as he finished speaking, several strong men rushed into the room and surrounded the small Wu Wendong in the middle.
Wu Wendong is about thirteen years old this year. He has always claimed to be fearless, but he also understands the principle that a wise man should not suffer a loss in front of him.
Seeing a group of big men surrounding him, he couldn't help swallowing, and finally had to grit his teeth and swallow the blood.
"I'm sorry." Wu Wendong uttered these words with difficulty. His little face was already red enough to bleed.
The old lady leaned back in a calm manner and said, "I am old, and I didn't hear clearly what Master Wu said. Please speak louder, Master Wu."
Wu Wendong gritted his teeth and looked at the lady sitting at the top, his eyes already red.
"I'm sorry!! I said I'm sorry, did you hear me?! Huh!!?"
Wu Wendong almost shouted these words. Finally, he couldn't stand the humiliation any longer. He pushed away the servants who surrounded him, turned around and ran out.
The servant who had followed him out came back and reported that Wu Wendong had returned in the Wu family's carriage, and the matter was settled.
Qiao Yuandong sent Xiang Xiu'an back to entertain the friends who stayed in the hall, and mentioned in passing: "You were also at fault in this matter. After sending your friends away, go to the ancestral hall and kneel down by yourself."
Xiang Xiu'an nodded with his head down, then walked away looking back every few steps.
The lady saw it all. She helped Ji Tong stand up with her hand, said a few words to Qiao Yuandong, and then went back to the main courtyard.
Before she finished, she did not forget to remind him: "This girl is good, keep her and train her well."
This means that she will be trained for Xiang Xiu'an, and will be sent to his room as soon as Xiang Xiu'an gets married.
Qiao Yuandong naturally understood the meaning of the lady's words. She glanced at Xia Mang, who was not in the right state, and lowered her head to answer yes.
Xia Mang didn't realize that in the blink of an eye, her life was arranged by the two "leaders". At this moment, she was staring at the crazy-growing points on the system panel.
'The system task has been completed, and the reward points have been received. Please check it! '
'Since the host has completed the task perfectly and gained collective favor, the host will receive extra bonus points! '
'Ding! Extra bonus points have been received, please check!'
After two waves of rewards, Xia Mang directly received 1328 points for this mission, which doubled her account balance!
Xia Mang was completely confused. She stared at the points page again and again, and asked the system somewhat unconfidently.
'Is it my eyes that are blurry, or have you made a bug again?'
System: '.The points are true.'
Xia Mang was confused: "This is too much, I didn't do anything, but why is there a round number?"
The system hesitated for a long time before giving a reason: "That's because the host saved the life of the mission target in time, so there will be an excess reward."
Xia Mang nodded and was about to believe what the system said, but his peripheral vision caught sight of an inconspicuous logo in the corner of the panel.
Level two.
'Wait a minute! Was there this before?'
Xia Mang noticed the difference, and then discovered that the entire system panel had undergone slight changes, and it seemed to be a little more refined than before.
She quickly responded: "When did you upgrade?"
The system told the truth: 'Just now.'
Xia Mang's eyes flashed, and she instantly thought of a possibility. She sent a brain wave to the system in her mind in a sinister manner.
"You didn't use my reward points to level up, did you?"
The system clearly flashed an unnatural electric current sound, and then avoided the question: "Host, please pay attention to the external situation."
After being reminded by the system, Xia Mang realized that he had been distracted.
Rongzhu gently pushed her and said angrily, "Madam promoted you, you must be so happy that you are stupid. Why are you just standing there without even replying?"
Xia Mang nodded hurriedly, met Qiao Yuandong's calm gaze, and asked in confusion, "What did Madam say just now?"
Qiao Yuandong: “.”
Rongzhu reminded her unhappily: "Madam has nominated you to be the head maid."
After a brief moment of stunned silence, Xia Mang quickly bowed to Qiao Yuandong and expressed his loyalty in a sonorous and powerful voice.
"Thank you for your kindness, Madam. From now on, I will serve you wholeheartedly, and will do my best until my death."
The only thing that limited her performance was her vocabulary.
Qiao Yuandong looked at her in surprise. He didn't expect that she knew so many words. He couldn't help but ask, "Have you ever been to school?"
Xia Mang thought that he could also recognize the traditional Chinese characters of this era, so he nodded.
Qiao Yuandong then looked at her again, a bright light flashed in his clear eyes, and a look of satisfaction appeared on his face.
"It is just as the lady said. You are a clever person. You should learn more from me in the future."
As he said that, he led Rongzhu to the flower hall next door to take a look. Before leaving, he saw Xia Mang still standing there in a daze, so he instructed again: "Go find Yunxiu and ask her to teach you the rules for a few days."
Rongzhu, who was supporting Qiao Yuandong, heard her assign this task to Yunxiu. She couldn't help but think about it secretly, frowning and then relaxing her brows.
Xia Mang bowed and nodded in agreement. After sending Qiao Yuandong away, she did not rush to find Yun Xiu, but continued to confront the system.
'Tell me the truth, did you deduct my points?'
Xia Mang has always felt that the system rewards are too stingy. Every time you complete a task, you only get fifty at most.
That would be fine, but the prices of goods in the system mall are ridiculously high, which is obviously unreasonable.
Combining all these details today, Xia Mang came to the conclusion that the system secretly deducted the reward points, and the purpose of doing so was naturally to use them for upgrades.
Now that things have come to this, the system has no intention of avoiding the issue any further.
'Upgrading is a necessary procedure, please understand.'
"You" Xia Mang was so angry that he wanted to hit himself on the head.
The system continued to boast: "Besides, a portion of each mission reward is also left to the host."
Xia Mang was shocked: "That's a part? ! ! "
This time, there is an extra reward of 1000 for completing the task. According to convention, the rewards for previous tasks should also be 1000 each time.
But the result?
In the past, the reward for completing each task was only 50!
Haha, this is called a part.
