Cinderella Innocent and Boss Charming - Chapter 479
Chapter 479 Slapping
Lu Xiaoxian circled around the second floor and didn’t see Lan Kaize’s room, she thought maybe it was on the third floor. She was about to head to the third floor when she heard Lan Kaize say, “Don’t go to the third floor, only Grandpa and I live up there.”
What Lu Xiaoxian really wanted to see was Lan Kaiser’s room, hearing him say that, she couldn’t help but feel a little disappointed, but didn’t want to give up, “Better go up and take a look, in case I’m not looking in the right place?”
“Didn’t anyone tell you? Only three people can go up on the third floor, Uncle Wah, Ah Lieh and Sister Gui.”
This Lu Xiaoxian really didn’t know, she mouthed, “So that’s how it is, then I won’t go up.”
Kaiser Blue asked her, “Know how to get downstairs?”
Lu Xiaoxian nodded, so Lan Kaiser didn’t say anything else and went upstairs.
Lu Xiaoxian stood there and watched until he disappeared from sight before she sighed in relief, after coming to the Lan family for so long, she finally got to deal with him, and it felt as if Lan Kaize didn’t exclude her as much as he did the first few times.
Lu Xiaoxian was a little happy and turned to go downstairs, but where were the stairs? In addition to the main curved staircase in the center of the room, there were many small staircases spread around, each staircase looked like a deep cave, so she did not dare to easily put her foot down.
As she was hesitating, she heard someone speak to her, “Are you lost?”
Lu Xiaoxian twisted his head to see, is a uniformed male servant, not tall, but very sturdy, dark skin, at first glance is the local people, smiled to reveal a mouthful of white teeth, Chinese speaks quite pure, “I see you hesitate here …”
“Yes, I’m lost,” Lu Xiaoxian’s sense of direction had always been poor, and the last time she was at the hotel she met Lan Kaili because she was lost.
“Where are you going?” The maid asked.
Lu Xiaoxian said, “I’ll go downstairs to the hall, I’m afraid if I go anywhere else I won’t be able to turn out again.”
The male maid then gave her directions, “Straight ahead, turn left, then right, then right again and you’ll see the main staircase.”
“Thank you so much,” Lu Xiaoxian thanked and asked, “May I ask if you are …?”
“You can just call me Lie.”
Lu Xiaoxian’s eyes lit up, “You’re the one who can go up to the third floor, Lie?”
“Yes, I’m Lie, who specializes in serving the First Young Master.”
There weren’t many male maids in the Blue House, basically all of them were doing menial work outside, only Ah Lie wore a white uniform and could freely go in and out of all the places in the Blue House.
“Hello, hello,” Lu Xiaoxian held out her hand, “My name is Lu Xiaoxian, I’m new here.”
In Laeo, only the upper class used the handshake salute, and Arlie froze for a moment without reaching out, bowing slightly towards her, “Hello, it’s a pleasure to meet you.”
Lu Xiaoxian snapped and retracted her hand, inquiring curiously, “Why is it that only the eldest young master doesn’t use maids?”
Ah Lie thought for a moment and said, “Maids are very troublesome, they are always making secret glances at the young master, making the young master annoyed, so …” Suddenly realizing that the object of Self’s speech was also a maid, he was busy explaining, “I’m not talking about you , I am talking about some maids.”
“It’s okay, I’ve heard about these things too,” Lu Xiaoxian said with a smile, “It seems like there was once a maid who was thrown out of her room by the eldest young master.”
“Yes. Since then, the young master has stopped using maids, and maids are not allowed on the third floor.”
It turned out to be so, knowing the ins and outs of the matter, Lu Xiaoxian inexplicably rejoiced in her heart, disliking the pestering of women, this point Lan Kaize is very much like Gu Nianbin.
Lan Kaiser went upstairs to take a shower and had just changed when he heard the bell in his room ring, signaling that the dining room was open for dinner.
He took a dry towel and wiped himself haphazardly twice before heading downstairs for dinner; they were a big old-fashioned family, and it would have been unseemly to make the elders wait for the juniors.
When Lan Zufeng was not at home, Lan Xiuhe took the main seat, and his arrival signaled that dinner could begin.
When Lan Kaize arrived at the restaurant, he heard Lan Xiuhe lecturing Lan Xiuming, “It’s been a few days since we’ve been home, and you don’t care, it’s a good thing that Dad isn’t at home, otherwise if his old man blames it on him, I’ll see how you can still protect him!”
Lan Xiuming nodded honestly, “Big brother is right, when Kaili comes back, I’ll definitely teach him a good lesson, it’s just too much!”
Lan Kai Ze sat down next to his mother, Lin Pei Zhi, and said, “It’s so hard to take advantage of Grandpa not being at home before Third Brother gets a chance to have some fun outside, so just let him be, Dad.”
Lin Peizhi whispered, “Kaiser, when dad speaks, you just listen, don’t sing against him.”
“He’s right, I’ll keep quiet.”
Lin Peizhi glanced at her son, but there was nothing she could do, the Lan family family rules are extremely strict, the juniors never dare to violate the superior, only Lan Kaize, in addition to the old master, he does not put anyone in the eyes. But he has this bad temper, but deeply loved by the old master.
Everyone stood with a maid beside them, only next to Lan Kaiser was Ah Lie, ladling the soup and laying out the dishes, the maids retreated to the back and stood quietly, ready to listen to their master’s beck and call.
Lu Xiaoxian hadn’t seen this kind of formation before, carefully observing and watching how the others did it, keeping some small details in her mind, she was arranged to stand behind the third madam, just diagonally opposite to Lan Kaize.
Lu Xiaoxian had been a little worried, but as soon as she raised her eyes, Lan Kaize was in sight, and whether he was Gu Nianbin or not, this face at least made her feel at ease.
A Lie also saw Lu Xiaoxian, blinked at her, Lu Xiaoxian returned a smile, but the afterglow glanced at what seemed to be a sharp flash of light, as if someone was looking at self, fixed clear look, and did not find anyone.
She glanced surreptitiously at Kaiser Blue as the man ate his meal in silence, his gaze bland and not looking at anyone.
Lan Xiuhe coughed and said, “Kaiser, did Grandpa say when he’d be back?”
“If you want to know, call yourself and ask grandpa.” Blue Kaiser didn’t even lift his head and replied faintly.
Lin Peizhi said unhappily, “Kaize, how are you talking to your father.”
Alenda smiled and rounded up the conversation, “Don’t be angry, sister-in-law, Kaiser has this temper.”
Lin Peizhi was angry in her heart and had no place to vent her anger, so she immediately pointed her finger at Alanda, “I’m teaching my own son, is it your turn to speak?”
Alanda had been widowed for many years and was soft, so she didn’t dare to say anything when she was counted out by Lin Peiichi.
A fox-fake father, an overbearing mother, Lan Kai Ze curved the corners of his mouth, pulling up a sneer, really a perfect match couple. Parents’ words and deeds he has long been accustomed to seeing, behind the scenes do not know how many sordid things, see in their own parents on the part, he endured not to say, but also bitter persuasion, but useless, they when the grandfather a set, behind the back of a set, so that everyone on their grievances, can not afford to mess with them all avoided to go.
Lu Xiaoxian looked at this scene and was sensitive to the fact that the relationship between Lan Kaize and his parents wasn’t very good, which was different from Gu Nianbin, who had always been a filial son. But if Lan Kaize was really Gu Nianbin, then Mr. and Mrs. Lan Xiuhe were not his parents.
To prove that Blue Kaiser is Gu Nianbin, the Blue Xiuhe couple should be the breakthrough, Blue Keli said that when Blue Kaiser was injured, he was living in a foreign hospital, and had been taken care of by the Blue Xiuhe couple, who should be the most aware of what happened at that time.
Lan Xiu and the couple’s room was on the second floor, where she had free access, and she intended to take the opportunity to explore it and maybe find some clues.
After a meal, Lu Xiaoxian discovered the situation again, the newly married second young grandmother Qiao Yi Yi always intentionally or unintentionally cast her gaze towards Lan Kai Ze. A few times she saw, panicked to take back her gaze, in the eyes of Lu Xiaoxian is to be a thief.
If it was Du Xiaoxian who had just walked out of Daliang Mountain, she wouldn’t have thought much about it, if it was Lu Xiaoxian after she took over Gu, she would have thought about it, but she might not have thought about it clearly, but now that she was the Lu Xiaoxian who had had her heart changed, she not only had to think about it, but also had to think about it thoroughly.
According to this look, the situation is still a little complicated, if the blue Kaiser is really Gu Nianbin, she not only want to wake up her husband’s memory, but also to cope with the blue Kaiser eyeing the woman, Qiao Yi Yi can not be sure at the moment, but An Yirou should be counted as one, said the size of the family of An intelligent and virtuous, but if it touches on her interests, I am afraid that it will have to be a different story, once upon a time, Xia Xiaoyuan and Xia Xiaowan is a living example.
“Are you deaf? Can’t you hear me when I scream twice?”
Zeng Hong turned around and yelled, and only then did Lu Xiaoxian wake up as if from a dream. Busy stepping forward, “Third Mistress, what do you want?”
“Get me the silver ear soup.”
Lu Xiaoxian gave an oh-so-quiet cry and hurried over to get the silver ear soup, but she heard Lin Peizhi reprimand, “Slap your mouth!”
Lu Xiaoxian froze, what did she do? Why did she have to be slapped? In the afternoon, she was slapped by Missy, and now Madam wants her to slap her! The Lan family is used to beating people up!
Everyone’s gazes shot at her in unison, even Lan Kaiser looked at her, and these gazes included gloating, disdain, indifference, and also sympathy and suspicion.
Lu Xiaoxian quickly calmed down, “First Mistress, what have I done wrong, why should I be slapped?”
Lin Peizhi’s eyes raised, ”By virtue of you asking this, it’s a great disrespect, the Lan family has never had only the master say it and the servant do it, there is no servant to refute it, that’s the rule, as for why you need to slap your mouth, just now how did you reply to the third madam? A word like “oh”, is that what a servant should say? You should have answered: Yes, Third Mistress. Did no one teach you these rules?”
Rather, someone had told her, just a moment of distraction forgot, Lu Xiaoxian sighed, in her opinion this is a small matter, at most get a scolding, which thought that the blue family rules are so strict, not moving to beat people, she is really a little uncomfortable!
Seeing Lu Xiaoxian standing still, Lin Peizhi was a bit angry, this maid was simply challenging her authority, she was the First Lady, who dared to disobey her except the Old Master!
“Can’t you hear me? Slap me!”
Lu Xiaoxian bit his lip, thinking that he was afraid that he would not be able to hold out, his right hand clenched and loosened, and slowly raised …
Just then, he heard Lan Kai Ze faintly say, “Forget it, she’s new here, probably no one told her about this, just remember it next time.”
Zeng Hong also hurriedly said, “Yes, sister-in-law, forget it, a newcomer, just spare her this time, she’ll remember next time.”
Lin Peizhi was so angry that her face turned red, and her son sang against her in public, even Zeng Hong dared to follow her advice, and was about to lose his temper.
Lan Kai Ze said, “Lie, take her out and tell her the rules of the house, and if you don’t teach her properly, I’ll take you to task.”
“Yes, Young Master.” Ah Lie leaned in respectfully and walked over to pull Lu Xiaoxian away.
