As expected, I was lifted up by a large hand…

After a moment, it was put down again. "Don't test my patience anymore. Don't think that Ling 'er can protect you. I'm more terrifying than her, understand?”

When my feet landed on the ground, my heart finally relaxed. I glared at her.

Holding Lan Zhi's hand, we walked forward without looking back. Finally, we came to the street. I could feel myself again. I was no longer a frozen Iceman.

I took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat on my forehead. I immediately felt Ling 'er jumping on my shoulder. I quickly grabbed it and brought it in front of me. I turned it over and over to find its wound, but I couldn't find anything." It was clearly bleeding just now. Why can't I find its wound now? Could it be that the beggar was injured? If you knew, why would I be afraid of him?"

" Sigh." I sighed. "That's not right. There's no wound on his body. How is that possible?”I fell into deep thought again.

"Girl, what are you thinking about? I'm so envious of your brave performance just now. You're so smart! My good sister!"

" I was forced to do so at that time, so I suddenly thought of this idea. It was purely an accident. Who would have thought that the leader of Beggar's Sect would be so petty? He only gave me a bowl, but he never stopped. Fortunately, he met someone like me who liked to keep things peaceful. Otherwise, he would definitely spread everywhere that he was petty, domineering, and could not afford to lose. He always bullied small animals and never helped the old and the young. Of course, the old is me, and the young is my Ling 'er.”

"You're the one who can't afford to lose. What support the old and the young? What are you talking about? You still dare to go around talking nonsense? Be careful, I'll poke your acupuncture point and make you stand from morning till night. I guarantee that you won't even have to blink your eyes. Do you want to try?" The Beggar King pursed his lips and said.

"If you dare, Ling 'er won't be afraid of you. Right? "Ling 'er, I promise you, Ling' er." She gently stroked its head and demonstrated to the beggar.

"Ling 'er, although I didn't expect it to recover so quickly, can it also protect Lan Zhi with its life?”He smiled smugly.

"Damn beggar, you're despicable and shameless! "You little bastard, you petty bastard…" I cursed loudly.

However, he swallowed his words halfway.

Suddenly, two fingers appeared on Lan Zhi's neck." Alright, I won't say anymore. Then, may I ask this honorable leader, why are you following behind an ugly monster like me?" Are you waiting for an opportunity to take revenge? Or…"

"Do you think I'm blind like you? I, Zheng Jun, have always been a man of my word. I have never gone back on my word. A loss is a loss. I'm not a coward! Don't look down on me. You dare to slander me? I won't give you the chance to talk nonsense. Dream on!" As he spoke, he knocked my head heavily.

"So you want to be my servant for three years? Are you kidding me? "Stingy beggar." I looked at him hesitantly.

He looked at me silently and playfully, as if I would be played to death by him.

He's very wrong. The possibility of him playing me to death is not high. I'm not that easy to mess with. Bring it on! I'll show you the power of a twenty-first century girl. Just wait and see. I couldn't help but smile proudly.

I stood in the yard, looking up at the blue sky and took a deep breath.

……

" A beautiful day has begun. My good Ling 'er, don't always mess with my hair." As I said that, I carried Ling' er back to my head and raised her high above my head again.

" Girl, you're up so late, and you're still making a fuss." Godfather had already stepped over the threshold, and the sun shone on his smiling face.

" Godfather, I was busy the whole day yesterday, that's why I woke up late. I won't dare to do it again." I smiled at Godfather with a flattering face.

"Let's go, let's start!”Godfather said as he walked out of the door.

I followed after him and began to fulfill my promise.

On the night when I recognized my godfather and godmother, my father said that I was a genius in martial arts and that my body was a little weak. I had to train well. He wanted me to promise that I would practice martial arts with my father every morning in the future. So I started my morning exercises and gave it a nice name.

I clumsily learned the rough martial arts routine. First, I followed up with a series of random strikes. Next, I followed up with piling, which was said to be the most basic movement. In the end, he had to circle around a big tree stump for a hundred times.

After two hours of exercise, I was so tired that I saw stars and my legs went weak. I touched the wall and walked back to my bedroom.

Just as he wanted to go back to sleep, he was pulled up by Lan Zhi's gentle little hand.

"Hurry up and eat breakfast! "We're all starving from waiting," Lan Zhi said with a face full of resentment.

I came to the hall and saw the little gang leader knocking on the bowl. His face was still covered in black dust as he sat leisurely on the chair.

When I saw his sloppy appearance, I was really angry. I was about to speak but was stopped by Lan Zhi.

"Stop talking and eat! I only have the strength to curse after eating. Lan Zhi saw my anger.

I turned my head and looked at the few unique dishes on the table. An excited smile immediately appeared on my face. I forgot about my previous displeasure and didn't care about my eating manners. I ate in big mouthfuls until I patted my stomach and almost burped.

She slowly looked up at Lan Zhi beside her. She was really an elegant lady. Her eating movements were very elegant.”I thought to myself.

I also inadvertently glanced at Zheng Jun. Although he was eating casually, his actions were very particular and gentle, like a noble son." Pretending to be ignorant " was another evaluation of him.

After waiting for a while, the two of them had already finished eating.

I straightened my body and said seriously,"A country has its laws, and a family has its rules. Now we have to set up our family rules. Sister Lan Zhi, bring a pen and ink and record it. In the future, the three of us must act according to the rules."

Lan Zhi quickly took a pen and ink and began to record.

"First, Lan Zhi and I are sisters. Zheng Jun is a servant and will only be a servant for three years. However, everyone in our family is equal. There is no distinction between master and servant.

Second, as a man, Zheng Jun, I'll remember it later. Zheng Jun, how old are you? Where is your hometown? I suddenly remembered this person's background.

"Why are you asking? You just said something about 'everyone is equal', and now you're asking me about my background. What do you want?”Zheng Jun's face was clouded with worry.

"Nothing. I just want to know how old you are so that I can consider how you usually address us. As for the details, if you don't understand, I'll explain them one by one after I'm done."

"Forget it, isn't it just age? "I'm fifteen years old. My master didn't tell me where I was born, and I didn't ask either. I don't know," he answered decisively.

Looking at his serious expression, I temporarily believed what he said was true. Besides, we only have a three-year agreement. According to my experience, the less I know, the less dangerous it will be. After all, he is a gang leader. I don't want to offend him. Keeping a low profile was the only way to avoid trouble.

"Okay, the second rule: As the only man in the family, you must protect everyone in the family. Because you are the youngest, you can call me Sister Lan Zhi and Sister Wang in the future! You have to call me that." I emphasized my last sentence.

"Third, Zheng Jun is in charge of all the physical work in the house, such as: Carrying water, chopping wood, buying rice, buying noodles, and…" I thought for a moment and then continued," I also have to plant flowers, help with some heavy work, and so on. Zheng Jun was paid monthly. Was Lan Zhi's current servant paid at this price?”I turned my head to Lan Zhi and waited for her answer.

" A male servant of a normal family usually pays three wen a month." After Lan Zhi finished speaking, she nodded to confirm.

"Alright then, six coins a month? I don't like to take advantage of others."

Zheng Jun was stunned at first, then his face was filled with disdain.

" Fourth, everyone in the family must bathe once a day in the summer and once every three to five days in the winter. Those who do not comply with this rule will be punished by not eating for one day and can only stand facing the wall. The third time, he would be punished to stand at the door and shout for three days,"" I'm a baneful ghost. I don't bathe, so I'm punished to apologize here for three days." He shouted until he admitted his mistake and promised not to do it again. This rule could not be changed.”I thought of this rule in the time it took me to eat a meal. It was also the original reason why I set this family rule.

"Fifth, state your opinions first and discuss them after I finish speaking. The men in the family must listen to the words of the older people and can express their own opinions. However, the principle of majority voting is to vote by a show of hands. I will explain the specific method at the end.”

" I didn't say that I couldn't. Why did you have to emphasize it? I heard it," Zheng Jun said disdainfully.

" Sixth rule: I'll pay for all the expenses in the house. Sister will take care of the cooking at home. Zheng Jun will be in charge of the cleaning of the yard and outside the house. He was also responsible for his own clothes and everything in his room. He had to keep the room clean and tidy. We will supervise each other and check each other every seven days. Those who fail will be punished by cleaning the toilets once. Zheng Jun will be in charge of the hygiene of the toilets! "Because we are both women…" I revealed a flattering smile and looked at him.

" That's a little too much. How can I, the sect leader, clean the toilets? If others find out, I'll become a laughing stock. This can't be done." Zheng Jun's face was so red that it was about to bleed.

"Then let's take turns. This won't be considered losing face, right? We'll do it together. You can't take advantage of us two women, right?”Lan Zhi and I looked at him at the same time.

" Alright, I admit defeat. I met a jinx like you." He bit his lips tightly, almost grunting.

" Seventh rule: From today onwards, we are a family. Of course, you will be free in three years, but in these three years, I hope you can treat this place as your home. Since they were family, they had to trust each other, care for each other, and treat each other sincerely. This is the minimum requirement for family members. I hope that each of us can do our best to fulfill it.”

"Eighth rule: Although our family is not a big family, we must still do it: Five lessons, four beauty, three love. To be specific, one must not use vulgarities when speaking, such as: Be polite: When you see your neighbors, you must be amiable and not quarrel with them. Try not to cause trouble. Pay attention to hygiene: Be it when you go out or at home, you must be clean and tidy. You must not lose the face of your family. A person must be moral, not swindling, must be trustworthy; Under special circumstances, they could be particular about it, for example, for the sake of their family's image. The Four Beauties: A beautiful heart, beautiful behavior, beautiful speech, and appropriate clothing.‘The last and most important rule is that you can only have one person you love the most in your life. You can only have one wife or husband."

Just as I said that, the two of them looked at me in surprise. I seemed to have become a rare animal, a freak. I naturally wouldn't bother with them. He continued,

" The ninth and final rule. If you violate the above rules, you will be kicked out of the house and given a corresponding punishment. As for what punishment you will receive, it can be decided by everyone according to the situation at that time.”

" Alright, just these ten. It's not too much." I sat back down steadily.

"Then what is equality and voting?”Lan Zhi was the first to ask.

"Everyone is equal, which means that we are all the same people, regardless of master or servant, noble or humble. In this family, our status is the same, and we have the same rights. A vote by a show of hands: When the three of us are discussing something, if there are different opinions, those who agree will raise their hands. If two of us agree and one of us disagrees, then the minority will obey the majority and the decision will be made according to the agreement. If one person who agreed raised his hand and the other two raised their hands, the person who disagreed would be dealt with.”、"Do you understand?"

"I still have to think about it?" Lan Zhi said slowly.

" I understand. It means that I'm the same as you on the surface. It's just that because I'm a man and younger than you, I have to work more and listen to you. I understand. I'm just putting on an act." The corners of his mouth curled up, obviously unconvinced.

"That can't be helped. Who asked you to lose? Serves him right! I don't care if you're the leader or the king, I'm not afraid of a stingy price. "These rules were set for you, and you understand them quite well." I thought happily in my heart, but there was no smile on my face. Instead, there was a little anger.

" It's hard to be a human, but it's even harder to be a good person. You're really a dog biting Lu Dongbin. You don't know how to appreciate a good person's heart." I deliberately said things that they didn't understand, trying to anger him to death.

" Alright, who asked me to lose? I admit defeat. It's up to you. I'm going back to sleep now." As he spoke, he turned around and was about to leave.

"Wait, I still have something for you to do.”I immediately stopped him.
