After the Legend Chapter 199: Dig the wall

S? ! Ming Na's eyes widened: "You are from Grandma Mei Li..."

Marcie smiled: "I'm her youngest sister." She looked at Ming Na carefully, her eyes softened: "Your chin looks like your eldest sister, all the children in our family look like this. Chin" just after she finished speaking, she suddenly realized that what she said was inappropriate, and hurriedly said: "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that, please forgive me, Miss Minna"

But Ming Na was very angry when she heard this: "What's there to apologize for?! Why do you call me Miss? You are my great-aunt, you should call me Minna!"

Marcy covered her mouth gently, her eyes already filled with joy: "Okay, Minna, that's what I'll call you"

"That's right!" Ming Na smiled and touched her chin, "My mother always said that my chin looks like my father, and my father looks like my grandma, but I have only seen the one in the portrait. Grandma, is it really similar?"

Marcy nodded with a smile. Minna rolled her eyes and took out a small jewelry box from the storage ring. She found a necklace from it, and looked in the mirror at the small portrait of Mei Li on the pendant. , looking back at Marcy Marcy has been smiling, her eyes gradually blurred, as if remembering the past

Ming Na took the photo for a while, and suddenly remembered something: "You said just now that the aunt asked you to come? Why did she do this?!" : "I remember passing through Gutenberg with my grandfather when I was a child. My uncle was already in charge of the local Xiao family branch. Didn't your whole family move here? Why are you still working as a maid in Kado?"

Marcy hesitated for a long time before she told the truth under Minna's repeated urging

It turns out that Mei Li's father, Old Jones, is a very stubborn person. He can't accept that his family is expelled from Cardor in disguise, even though his son has become a branch manager in Gutenberg and wants to pick him up Fortunately, he also refused to leave the Cardo estate, and before dying, he wrote to Mirabell and Ilu asking them to let the Jones family return to the Cardo mansion

Mirabell couldn't refuse the last request of the old man who had grown up with him before he died, so he had to agree, and handed the matter over to his son Yilong. His grandfather's family was treated as a servant, which would only destroy the relationship between brothers. It happened that he had a conflict with the stewards of the Xiao family business, and finally managed to get back a few trading houses, but he could not find a credible and capable person to manage it. Several brothers in the Si family have experience, so they simply asked them to come back to help. Therefore, most of the men of the Zhong Si family worked in the trade house, while the female family members stayed at home and did not enter the Kado mansion as servants

Ming Na heard. Here, she didn't understand: "Then why did you come?"

Marcy smiled bitterly: "I don't know the reason why Mrs. Lilith suddenly sent someone to inform us today that my cousins ​​and sisters in your business have been recalled to Mrs. Said it was because there was no one around Miss Ditang in Maiton to serve and specially let us come to work"

Ming Na suddenly stood up when her head was hot: "She is trying to humiliate me! Damn!" After that, she rushed out to find Lilith to settle the account, and Marcy quickly stopped her: "Don't be angry, don't be angry with me. Miss Di Hao, after all, we are still servants of Kado, can't we refuse the master's request and say it's not good to just serve you? It's better than serving others"

Ming Na bit her lip and said with red eyes, "But she did this clearly to tell me that my grandmother and mother are all her servants, she can do whatever she wants, isn't she hateful?!"

Marcy smiled helplessly: "In fact, we are indeed her servants

The things the elder sister did in those days cannot be said to be correct as a servant, but a servant must consciously forget her identity and only bring pain to herself and her family"

Minna frowned and was a little dissatisfied: "My dad wrote you a letter asking you to come to Maiton if he asked, and my uncle wouldn't disagree. Why wouldn't you? If you agreed then, you won't now. I'm so angry"

Marcy smiled wryly: "It's hard to change the old man's thoughts, and the brothers did a good job in the business, and they didn't even want to start over in the north"

Is it true? Ming Na doesn't believe that even a person who has been a servant for generations has the opportunity to stand out, how could he give up? So she asked, "You said just now that your aunt called you back, how many people are there?"

"Me, and my second sister-in-law, she does chores in the kitchen, and two nephews, one is a horse, one is a driver, a niece is in the laundry room, and a cousin is a gardener. The boys were originally studying in the business, but they were called over because they were not regular shop assistants.”

Minna squinted her eyes and said tentatively, "It sounds like I have a lot of cousins ​​and a lot more? Why don't you go to Maiton and try it? They stay in Ito or Gutenberg, at most they are A steward, but in Maiton, he can do whatever he wants. Cousins ​​can join the army, study in the Knights, work as a clerk in the administrative office, or open a business to do business. With my father here, no one will bully you. , are you really not going?"

Marcy hesitated: "But...I heard that the place in Maiton is very shoey and poor..."

"How could it be? Maiton is very big," Ming Na said with a smile. "It's a very rich place in the north, and now we are doing business with the Nuojia people. Animal husbandry is prevalent in our place, business is also very developed, and there are canals and arsenals. Foundry, it's very lively and people here don't know the truth, so they say it's poor, if you don't believe it, you'll know it yourself!"

Marsie was silent, but Minna could see it

After being tempted, even if they stay in Yidong and have the opportunity to become Yilong's subordinates, going to Maiton will mean a change in the family identity. also shaken

Ming Na decided to give Marcy some time so that she could discuss with her family, so she changed the subject and chatted about the two family members and some interesting things. Seeing the smile on Marcy's face, Minna secretly despised Lily in her heart Si, what a foolish woman, to humiliate her husband's capable subordinates for a trivial matter, wait until she abducts the Zhong Si family and see how you cry!

She slept extraordinarily sweet that night, and dreamed of Lilith being scolded by Elon, she couldn't help laughing out loud. When she opened her eyes the next morning, she saw a fat man suddenly appearing in front of her. Face, first startled, then overjoyed: "Winnie! Oh, my God, Winnie!" She hugged the fat babysitter and shouted, "Why did you come so early? I thought you won't be there until at least noon. !”

Winnie said cheerfully: "The captain of the guard named Herbie is in a hurry to come back. We were on the road for a day yesterday, and we almost didn't eat in the carriage." She suddenly looked solemn: "Miss, You don't know, there are so many robbers in the central part, and we met three times again! The eyes of the two captains were red, and two robbers' dens were burned down. It's terrible! But I think it's the officials who really deserve to be damned! There are so many robbers in their own jurisdiction, they don't care!"

Ming Na laughed dryly, thinking that those robbers are not necessarily robbers. Except for the officials who colluded with the queen, the others seem to be quite innocent?

Marcy came over with a pot of warm water sprinkled with fragrance, and smiled: "Are you going to get up? Today's breakfast is very rich, with fresh fish cakes"

Ming Na was busy introducing Winnie to her. Unexpectedly, the two of them had already greeted her and chatted for a while before she got up. Marcy pointed to the water in the basin: "This is what Winnie taught me, Sprinkle with your matching wood fragrance, and your face will feel refreshed after washing."

Ming Na smiled. She got up to wash up, put on her regular clothes, and then sat down and asked Marcy, "Did you discuss it with others after you went back last night?"

Marsie paused, nodded and said: "I asked. What do you mean by a few children, a few boys are willing to go, but Jenny, your cousin, her sweetheart is a local, so if she wants to stay, I plan to ask for leave in the afternoon Go see the brothers and ask them what they mean..." She hesitated and said, "Jenny reminded me that the brothers have been working in the firm for so many years, and it is impossible to let them go. If you let the children go, I want my family to separate my..."

Minna was silent, twisting the corners of her clothes and didn't say anything. When Winnie asked curiously what was going on, Minna said one by one, and added: "I don't really have to let them all come. Mayton go, I just...they stay here, they will be bullied by the auntie"

Winnie thought for a while, then clapped her hands: "This is easy to do! Let Lord Elon cancel their servant contract and hire them instead! The lady can let them leave Kadoor, but not necessarily They leave Ito Castle!"

Minna was confused when she heard it: "What do you mean?" If they left Cardo and didn't go to Maiton, what's the point?

Winnie said: "Our old lord also did this kind of thing before." She was referring to Ming Na's grandfather, Viscount Zhufa, "At that time, the Zhufa family also had a house in Yidong, the place was not big, it was for the old lord. Ye lived in Yidong temporarily. When Miss Dora went to socialize, she lived in that house. At that time, there were a few employees in the old man's business. The son he gave birth to was very smart, so the old man sent them to Yidong. Look at the house, and when they are adults, they will ask someone to find a job for them. One of them joined the army, and now he is a baron! There is also a secretary in the Legal Affairs Department. I heard that they did a good job, and another opened his own business. The firm is now the big boss! They visit the old man every year, but then the old man decided to retire in Matt and sold the house."

She talked a lot~IndoMTL.com~ but Minna understood it, she suddenly became enlightened and jumped up: "That's right! If our family also bought a house in Ito, You can ask your uncle to release the Zhong Si family and let them take care of them. If you want to stay in the business, you can continue to stay. If you want to join the army or become a clerk, you can ask your father to write a letter! He also has friends in Yidong, or…” After a pause, she reluctantly said, "It's okay to ask the security agency for help..."

Winnie nodded happily: "That's what I meant, the lady is so smart!" Marcy looked surprised, but quickly got up: "It's not cheap to buy a house in Ito, will it... Too much money?"

"It's alright!" Ming Na hugged her affectionately, "Dad comes to Yidong every year to report his work. Instead of staying in a store every year, it's better to buy a room. We don't want to buy a big one like Kado. The house, we can afford this money.” It’s not her boasting, Maiton already has a lot of money every year just from the business tax, road tax and river transportation tax, and their family, as the lord of Maiton, has How could a few hundred hectares of forests and fields be poor? Their family is just not used to living a luxurious life

Winnie had been thinking about it long ago: "Let me think about it...the house only needs twenty or thirty rooms, and there is also a yard, garden, and horse shed... It would be nice if there was a grand ballroom in the house. , you can have a dance in there!"

Minna retorted with a smile: "The dance will be avoided, Winnie, it's inconvenient for Dad to be here with other people!"

The more she thought about it, the more she felt that this was a good idea. She got up and went downstairs. When she arrived at the door of the restaurant, she saw from a distance that the Elon family was looking over at Lilith, with a hint of sarcasm. She held back the smile on her lips. I mean, strode towards them
