I couldn't eat a bite of the rice I cooked by myself, it was as embarrassing as a cooked duck flying away.

I was listlessly doing the rest of the work, and kept thinking in my mind: the lord would not be like a pig, eating so much rice in one meal, but that is a small pot, which can hold three bowls!

"Donnie!"

Hearing someone call me, I answered, turned around and saw Talis was standing at the kitchen door looking at me.

"Come with me." After she finished speaking, she left first.

I quickly followed and asked her what was wrong.She didn't say anything, just kept walking up the stairs.

After I followed her to the third floor, she pushed open a door and beckoned me to go in.

When you walk in, it's a small restaurant.A long square table covered with a white tablecloth was placed in the middle of the room, and the lord was sitting at the head of the table.

When the lord saw me coming in, he waved at me and signaled me to go over.

I couldn't help but get nervous.

Fuck, what does he want to do?Should you let me have dinner with him?

I glanced at the small rice bowl on the table, um, there is still more than half of the rice left, as long as he let me eat with him.

I walked over while thinking, and then stood beside him.

He glanced at me, suddenly reached out and pulled one of my hands over, and...

I never expected that he would spit on my palm!Well, it literally spit out something!

Looking at the sticky thing in the palm of my hand, I really want to slap him in the face!

"Next time let me eat grit, pack up and leave!" He glared at me, then stopped looking at me and continued to enjoy his delicious meal.

"Get out." Talis urged me from the side.

I suppressed the anger again and again, and kept saying in my heart: If you can't bear it, you will make a big mess, bear it, bear it, you must bear it!

Eventually, I had to salute him and turn away.

Standing at the door, I looked at the thing in my hand and almost vomited it out.But I can't just paste it on the wall or the ground, I have to hold this thing until I return to the basement floor!

What quality!Is this something a lord can do?What a rascal!

*you!I secretly pointed my middle finger towards the door.

As soon as I got back to the kitchen, Lynn was just about to go out. When she saw me, she smiled and said, "Why, did the lord praise you for cooking good rice?"

"If you don't get out, I'll slap you in the face!" I said angrily.

At this time, she also caught sight of what was in my hand, and immediately moved aside incomparably quickly to make way for me.

I threw the things in my hand into the slop bucket, and then walked to the sink, washing my hands in spite of the cold water.

What the hell, I won't miss rice for a while!

***

In this country, December 12th is also Christmas, but it is not to commemorate Jesus, but to commemorate the sun god.The night before Christmas is a blessing night. The family not only wants to reunite, but also prays to the sun god to bless the family with safety and health.

Don't even think about the reunion with your family, because this festival is very busy, and no one wants to ask for leave to go home.

We were busy from the morning of the 24th until dinner was over.

The lord and his 14 mistresses had a big feast in the hall on the first floor.The tall man sits on the main seat, while his beautiful wives and concubines sit on both sides. That scene is really enviable.

I couldn't help but think to myself: When I go back, I will do it like this again!As for whether the women will fight because of jealousy, it will not be considered for the time being.

14 beauties, he is not afraid of kidney deficiency!

After finishing the masters' dinner, we servants also had a rare meeting.

Since Talis was to accompany the lord, Emilia was the host of the party.She's just saying things, encouraging us to work hard, to serve our lord, and so on.

As soon as she finished speaking, we immediately cheered and officially started the meal.

It was the best meal I ever had here, and besides a small bowl of beef and potatoes, I was given pieces of roast goose and a glass of milk, and the bread was free to eat.

I feel like I'm just a beggar now having a good year.Well, I almost cried with joy.

After filling my stomach and drinking two glasses of cheap wine, my eyes were really wet with tears.

Anna hurriedly asked me if I was not feeling well. I shook my head, my throat was choked, and I said a few words: "It's okay, I'm just homesick."

I really want to go home!Every day here is suffering!Most importantly, if I don’t go back, my family will go to the police station to report me missing!

No matter how wild or crazy I played before, I never stayed home for such a long time. If the old man was worried about me, or said something that shouldn't be said to the mother and child, then the old man would draw it if he couldn't keep it. The house is about to fall into the hands of the mother and son...

"Why don't you and Talis take leave after the New Year to go home and have a look." Anna kindly suggested.

Even if you give me leave, I can't find a way to go home!

I shook my head, stood up and walked back.Anna also went back with me. She saw that I was drunk and depressed, so she helped me.

After returning to the room, I climbed into bed and fell asleep with my clothes on.

Anna sighed and didn't say anything after all. After turning off the light for me, she also went back to sleep on her own bed.

***

In the middle of the night, I had to get up because I was thirsty.

Well, cheap wine not only tastes good, it also makes the mouth thirsty!

I rubbed my temples, and after I regained consciousness, I went to the ground to put on my shoes and look for water to drink.The kettle on the bedside table was empty, so I had to go out and continue looking for water.

The kitchen is locked at night. After much deliberation, I can only go to the laundry room to drink raw water.

In the laundry room, I drank some water from the tap and washed my face, completely awake.

For a while, because I didn't feel sleepy, I didn't want to go back to my room.I decided to take a walk outside the bedroom.

As soon as I got out of the water room door, out of the corner of my eye, I caught a glimpse of a figure flashing by the stairs.

I was startled for a moment, and immediately closed the door gently, and quietly followed.

I want to see who that man is and what he wants to do.

In order not to startle the snake, I took off the shoes and held them in my hand, after all, leather shoes with heels are easy to make noise.

After quietly coming to the second floor, seeing that there was no movement here, I thought about it for a while, and then immediately walked to the third floor.

Intuition tells me that this person is likely to be a thief.As for what to steal, I will naturally know when the time comes.

When I came to the third floor, when I saw the two guards on duty fell to the ground, my back instantly felt chilly.

This thief is very smart, should I follow?

When I was hesitating, I heard a "squeak" from above, as if a heavy door that hadn't been opened for a long time was opened.

Is there room up there?My eyes immediately swept around, and then I noticed that there was a very narrow staircase leading to the top of the stairs.

attic!

I immediately remembered that although the bedroom has only three floors, there is also a very small attic.

The thief went to the attic!What is he trying to steal?Could it be...

I couldn't help being startled, and said in my heart: No way?Would the lord put such an important thing in the attic?

However, there is a saying that "the most dangerous place is the safest", and the attic is not the most dangerous place, because the guards on duty will not allow people to pass through.

Anyway, I'm going to have a look!

I immediately ran upstairs, and I didn't care whether I would startle the snake.

After turning a corner and reaching the end of the stairs, a door that was ajar appeared in front of my eyes.

I made up my mind, and in order to prevent people from plotting against me when I opened the door, I pinched two leather shoes in front of my face with one hand, then leaned down/body slightly—for fear that the other party would suddenly kick me in the lower abdomen, and gently opened the door .

The lights were not turned on in the room, but the field of view was not restricted—the full moon hung high outside the window, and the moonlight shone in through the glass and was refracted several times in the room, making the room bright with snow.

For some reason, there are many, many mirrors in the room!

There are large mirrors that take up half of the wall, full-length mirrors, vanity mirrors on the table, and small round mirrors hanging on the wall... Just like the mirror fair, there are all kinds of mirrors!

At this time, a woman is looking through the mirrors, and she seems to find something in them.

My brain was running fast, and all the information combined told me one thing: I had never heard that the lord had a hobby of collecting mirrors, so he must have created so many mirrors to hide a very important mirror.

What mirror is so important?I can't think of anything else but holy things.

As soon as I thought of the word "holy object", I immediately cheered up.In any case, I can't let this thing fall into that woman's hands!

Through the moonlight, I saw the woman's face. Although her face was covered with a black veil, the left strand of red hair still betrayed her identity—the exclusive handyman Madeleine!

Madeleine hadn't noticed me lurking by the door, she was concentrating on selecting the mirror she was looking for.

She searched around, and when she finally took down a small mirror, she turned the mirror over and carefully examined the pattern on her lower back against the moonlight, then put the mirror in her arms.

Did she find it?I couldn't help but shivered.

Seeing that she really didn't intend to search any further and was going to the window, I lost my composure, and immediately got up and rushed in, shouting, "Madeleine, stop!"

She was startled, and when she turned around to see it was me, she seemed relieved.

"Put down the mirror, or you won't be able to leave!"

I have a leather shoe in one hand, I know it's not a deterrent, but I don't have any other weapons at this time.

She looked at me indifferently, and opened her mouth softly: "Why, are you looking for this thing too?"

I decided to ask what I wanted to ask: "What's so special about that mirror? Why did you come in and steal it?"

She snorted slightly: "You might as well ask me directly if it is a holy object."

Since she said that, it was tantamount to admitting that this mirror was a sacred object passed down from the lord's family.She is related to the lord, so it is not surprising that she knows what the holy relic is.Moreover, I said how her father sent his own daughter to be a maid. It turned out that it was the idea of ​​stealing holy objects.

"Whether it's a holy object or not, don't even think about taking it away!"

At least let me use it first, otherwise she will take it away, where can I find it?
