‘Huh?’
Gu Yundong almost laughed out loud at her words. Redeem her? It would be good enough if she did not force her to be a servant girl in the Peng residence. Redeem her?
However, Gu Xian’er did not see her expression. She looked up at the room that was twice as big as the one she used to have in the Gu family and said excitedly, “This room is not bad. Let me stay in it in the future. When the time comes, I want a big carved bed and a dressing table. There have to be a few cabinets over there. Oh right, there are also vases. Rich families have to put vases in their rooms. That’s how the Peng family is.”
She had already planned to get Gu Yundong to buy her a few silk flowers and cut a few pieces of cloth with a better color to make clothes.
Living in such a house and wearing new clothes, wasn’t she like a young lady?
“Gu Xian’er.” Gu Yundong interrupted her thoughts and asked with a sneer, “How long have you been a servant in the Peng Manor?”
“Why are you asking this? It’s been less than two months,” she replied impatiently.
“Less than two months.” It seemed that she came to Yongfu Village a little earlier. Gu Yundong nodded. “That’s not a short period of time. Why? Have you not learned how to bend your knees after being a servant for nearly two months?”
Gu Xian’er was stunned. “W-What do you mean?”
“Where did a servant get the confidence to order people around in my house?”
“Gu Yundong, how dare you talk to me like that?” In the past, Gu Yundong did not dare to refute her at all. Even if she was scolded or beaten by her, she would only cry and hide. Now, she was so bold?
“Why wouldn’t I dare? This is my house. Are you out of your mind to stand on my territory and order me around?” Gu Yundong looked at her as if she was looking at a fool.
“You’re the problem. You’re really bold. Aren’t you afraid that I…”
“What’s there to be afraid of? Are you afraid that you’ll complain? Go, go, go. Go find the grandpa and grandma who sold you. Go find your lazy parents.” Gu Yundong began to roll up her sleeves. “Or are you afraid that I’ll hit you? Come, let’s see whose fist is stronger.”
Gu Xian’er was horrified. Gu Yundong had really changed. She was no longer afraid of her and even dared to hit her?
No, she must have seen that she had no backing. Her grandparents were not around, so she was the king.
Seeing Gu Yundong like this, Gu Xian’er was still a little afraid. She could not help but take a step back. She braced herself and said, “You, aren’t you afraid that I’ll go out and shout at others, saying that you don’t care about your cousin’s life and death, that you have a cousin who is a servant in someone else’s house and you won’t save her?”
Gu Yundong did not care. “Go. Let’s see what the nanny who brought you here will think when she hears your words. Oh, she will probably realize that you think the Peng family is a tiger’s den. If I don’t redeem you, I will leave you in the lurch?”
Gu Xian’er’s expression changed. She didn’t dare.
She had only been in the Peng Residence for less than two months and was just a servant girl. Today, Granny Qian happened to see her cleaning the courtyard and brought her along. It was said that she had this opportunity because those second and third-grade maidservants refused to come to this countryside.
Along the way, she had already seen Nanny Qian’s strictness. If she heard these words, she would definitely suffer when she returned to the Peng residence.
In fact, she had improved a little in the two months she had been in the Peng residence. It was just that she had suddenly met Gu Yundong and was used to her previous way of doing things.
Now that she saw that Gu Yundong was not easy to bully, she did not dare to be too arrogant.
This was something that bullied the weak and feared the strong..
