LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 193 But you are a good person
The old man in front of him had a dark complexion, as if he had washed his face with ink.
The guard who went to call the door was shocked.
Although it was said that it was going to be dark at this time, it was not yet dark after all. The abnormal expression on the old man's face was not surprising.
"O-Old man!" the guard greeted, "My master and his family are passing by here. It's getting dark. I want to use the precious land to have a meal and boil some hot water."
Seeing that the old man was about to shake his head and refuse, the guard quickly said, "Don't worry, old man, we bring our own food. Even if we borrow some water and firewood, we will still leave some money."
Unexpectedly, the old man smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"There is also firewood and water. I will have it delivered to the guests in a moment for their own use." The old man said, "It must be that I am ungrateful. It's really... ugh."
At this time, the old lady also got off the carriage, holding Yingying in one hand and Long Baoer in the other, and walked over slowly.
There was also the housekeeper at home.
This young steward Chen is the son of the old steward. Because the old steward is old, he did not come with him this time.
On the other hand, Butler Chen looked like a tall man who was calm and had a faint glint in his eyes.
He is now in his thirties, and he grew up with the brothers Chang Maozhi and Chang Maoming. Not only did they study together, they also practiced martial arts together. They even went to the battlefield with the old uncle Zhen Yuan at the request of the old housekeeper.
Now in the name of housekeeper, he is actually in charge of the family's security team.
When she knocked on the door just now, he did not follow her, but always followed the old lady's carriage.
When he is not at home, his first priority is to protect the safety of his family.
At this time, following the old lady, the young steward Chen looked at the old man without leaving any trace, "Old man, this is my old lady."
Seeing Mrs. Chang's appearance, he knew that she was a noble person from a wealthy family. The old man quickly saluted, not even daring to look into Mrs. Chang's eyes.
The old lady comforted him a few words and chatted with him a few more words.
The old man smiled bitterly and shook his head, "You really can't enter. My house... Hey, this old lady, let me tell you the truth. It's not that I don't want to, but that I can't. My family is an ominous one."
"But grandpa is a good person?" Long Baoer suddenly tilted his head and said.
With Long Baoer's words, everyone's eyes suddenly changed when they looked at the old man.
Who doesn't know that their young lady is the apprentice of Yuntai Guanyun City, and also the disciple of the mysterious Ma Daoye?
Accepted as a disciple by these two Taoist masters, their young lady is very powerful. She even made a furnace of elixirs a few days ago.
Their little lady is only four years old!
There is no such a powerful little girl in the whole world.
Moreover, most of the servants who can stay in the Chang family are sons of the family and have been loyal servants for generations.
So I know a lot of secrets that outsiders don't know. For example, their little lady is called the little saint who protects the country, and she has something magical about her!
Children are the best at distinguishing good from evil, especially their little lady.
So Long Baoer said that the old man was a good person, and everyone believed it without any psychological burden.
"Ah, this..." The old man didn't know how to explain it. Being ominous has nothing to do with being a good person.
Unexpectedly, Long Baoer seemed to have heard his subtext, and immediately followed, "How can a good person be unlucky? Grandma said that good people are rewarded!"
The old lady touched Long Baoer's head lovingly and said with a smile, "Yes, good people are rewarded."
"Alas." The old man sighed softly.
"Grandpa, you are a good person, and we are also good people. We are all good people and will be rewarded. Don't be afraid." Long Baoer said innocently.
"Yes, father-in-law, my old lady and Miss Xiao are not afraid anymore. Just let us take a rest in Guibao Land for a while."
"Since you don't care, please come in quickly." The old man opened the door and shouted twice inside. Soon an old woman and two other little girls came out.
Judging from her dress, this old woman must be the old man's wife, and there are two little girls following behind her, the older one is Twelve San, and the younger one is only four or five years old.
Sure enough, the old man and the old woman whispered a few words, and the old woman stepped forward to salute them, and then invited them in.
This family is on the edge of the village and seems to be a well-to-do family. The old lady waved her hand and said, "It's very cool outside. Just sit outside and don't dare to disturb them too much."
Butler Chen next to him said, "Please, please prepare some hot water, and we have brought our own tea. Also, pick up some firewood and let us cook a meal."
The old man and the old woman hurriedly went to make arrangements, while the young lady took a teapot and several tea cups, washed them carefully and brought them over.
Originally, Butler Chen wanted to explain that they had brought their own teapot and teacups, but Mrs. Chang looked at him and swallowed her words.
Butler Chen took out the tea leaves, and the old woman brought boiling water. A pot of tea was brewed, and the aroma suddenly filled the air.
I called the long-term workers at home to help bring the firewood. When I turned around, I smelled a refreshing aroma. I couldn't help but praise, "This tea smells so good."
Mrs. Chang smiled and said, "If you don't mind, you two can sit down and taste it together."
Long Baoer also came out of Mrs. Chang's arms and took the two of them to drink tea.
The old man and the old woman couldn't resist, so they sat down. Butler Xiao Chen poured a cup for everyone, and the tea was filled with fragrance.
After sitting and drinking two cups of tea together, the conversation gradually opened up. Faced with Mrs. Chang's kind inquiry, the old man hesitated and told everything about his family.
