BXBX NOVEL Chapter 209 - 209 Recruit
The leader of the Spiritual Doctors sighed heavily and turned to look at Nie Yin, who was on the bed. “Young Master, please be safe and sound. Otherwise, we’ll all be doomed!”
Nie Yin’s breathing was extremely weak, as if he could stop breathing at any moment and never wake up again.
As Kong Rui sat in the room, she unfolded the kraft paper in front of her and looked at the string of names recorded on it.
“It seems that the people related to the Li family are all on this list!” Kong Rui couldn’t help but purse her lips. “However, the scope of the Li family’s connections really surprises me. It seems that the Li family’s fall from power will indeed affect many people. Without Wen Qiong now, it’s impossible for the queen to leave the Li family alone…”
“Looks like the Li family is going to rise again! It’s time for me to give the Li family a big gift!”
Kong Rui smiled as she took out a small jade accessory from her storage space.
She looked at it carefully before getting up and walking out.
When she walked to the front yard of Fragrant Garden, Kong Rui felt that the atmosphere in Fragrant Garden today was different from before.
She waved her hand and called the procuress over. “Are there more helpers in Fragrant Garden?” Kong Rui asked in confusion as she glanced at a few serious-looking faces in the distance.
...
Those people didn’t look like servants. Instead, they looked very fierce, like bandits.
Even if such people entered the Fragrant Garden, it was impossible for them to be servants.They would have been sent to the backyard early in the morning to watch the courtyard door or be sent to the kitchen to help.
Their intimidating appearances would probably scare away the guests who came!
Now, four to five such ferocious people had appeared in the front yard, so Kong Rui was caught off guard.
When the procuress heard Kong Rui ask about this, she couldn’t help but sigh. She finally had a place to vent her grievances.
“These people came to Fragrant Garden early yesterday morning and said that they wanted to be servants, but look at their appearances. How can I hire them?!”
“I naturally persuaded them to go back immediately. Who knew that these people would insist on staying?! At that time, you were not around. Only the male master had returned, so I immediately went to look for the male master to chase these guys out!”
As the procuress spoke, she tilted her head and sighed again with a dejected look.
“Who knew that the male master only instructed me to let these people stay and chased me out of the backyard? Several guests were frightened away by them!”
The brothel keeper’s aggrieved expression made Kong Rui sympathize with her resentment.
However, since Chao Bai let these people stay, he probably had his own reasons.
...
Since he wanted to let them stay, she would see what these people were here for!
Kong Rui had other things to do now, so she would deal with this in the future!
After comforting the procuress, Kong Rui hurriedly left.
As the few of them watched Kong Rui depart, all of them stretched their necks and widened their eyes fiercely, as if they wanted to see Kong Rui’s appearance clearly.
Seeing this, the procuress pointed a finger at them unhappily. “What are you guys doing? Hurry up and work!”
After the procuress finished speaking, she received a few glares.
The procuress immediately retracted her hand timidly and patted her chest with an aggrieved expression. “Gee! You guys are quite something!”
With that, she snorted and turned to go to the side kitchen to get busy.
When Kong Rui arrived outside the Li family’s residence, she saw that it was no longer as grand as before.
Due to the destruction of the ancestral hall, the Li family’s members were all distraught. Even the servant at the door looked distracted.
After Kong Rui looked around and confirmed that there was no one around, she nimbly threw an oil paper bag along the outer wall into the Li family’s residence.
...
Kong Rui listened to the commotion inside. For a long time, no one seemed to notice it.
She shrugged indifferently.
In any case, they would see it sooner or later. At that time, someone would naturally become anxious…
A worker was moving the materials for rebuilding the ancestral hall. When he passed by the outer courtyard wall, he saw a yellow object in the corner.
Recently, there had been many things to do in the residence. Workers like them were busy from morning to night and didn’t even have time to rest.
Although that bag of things looked worthless, the things in the Li family’s residence were very valuable compared to the things outside.
The greedy worker immediately went forward to pick up the oil paper bag.
