She scrubbed the clothes one by one and realized that there were also Wang Liya's underwear, underwear, socks, and other personal items. Xia Yufei looked at the gorgeous and soft women's items. She had never washed these for others before. A trace of shame flashed across the depths of her heart.
After a while. Xia Yufei consoled herself. No matter what? Since she had accepted their money, she had to work for them. Besides, he had come to Du Yuan Villa to work, so he had no choice.
Thinking of this, Xia Yufei continued to bathe. After showering for an entire day, she was so tired that she did not even have the strength to eat. She only took a short rest when she ate. Xia Yufei didn't understand why she was so sleepy and tired recently. Every time she ate, it was as if she was chewing wax. Auntie Zhang's thoughtful gaze would stay on her face and refused to move away until Xia Yufei asked her if there was something on her face! She shook her head and left.
In the days that followed, Xia Yufei was busy with Wang Liya and Du Nuoya's instructions. Overload and long hours of work made Xia Yufei's thin body even thinner.
On this day, Xia Yufei was trimming the flowers and trees in the back garden. Even though she was wearing a sun hat, the hot sun still made her sweat profusely.
"Miss Xia, let me help you. You should rest for a while.”At this moment, Housekeeper Xu's deep voice came from behind Xia Yufei. As he spoke, he had already arrived in front of her and took the tools from her hands."I'm sorry! Ms. Xia, I've been sent out by Mrs. Du to handle some matters recently, so I couldn't help you.”As he spoke, his hands were also busy with practice.
Housekeeper Xu said guiltily," When Young Master left, he repeatedly told me to take care of you. I didn't do it well. I'm sorry, Young Master."”It seemed that he knew about what had happened to Xia Yufei recently. However, he was just a butler of the Du family. He did not dare to disobey his master's orders.
"Thank you! Housekeeper Xu." Xia Yufei wiped her sweat and smiled.
"Furen also went to the temple recently. Otherwise, she wouldn't have allowed them to do this.”Housekeeper Xu's face never seemed to smile.
"It's okay, Housekeeper Xu. I'm free anyway. I've done much harder work at home in the past.”Xia Yufei comforted him.
"Housekeeper Xu." At this moment, Wang Liya's authoritative voice was heard. Xia Yufei turned around and saw Wang Liya standing behind them. Why was there no sound today? Usually, it was the sound of her high heels hitting the floor first. Xia Yufei stole a glance at her feet. It turned out that she was wearing a pair of cloth slippers. No wonder there was no sound.
"Have you finished what I asked you to do?”she asked unhappily.
"Yes, Madam." Housekeeper Xu replied. He did not stop working as he spoke.
"I said that no one is allowed to help Xia Yufei. What do you mean by doing this?”Wang Liya was annoyed that he ignored her.
"I don't mean anything. It's just that when Young Master left, he asked me to take care of Miss Xia. I saw that she was too tired, so I just helped her.”Housekeeper Xu stopped and answered her slowly.
"Are you threatening me?" Wang Liya asked.
"I wouldn't dare, Madam." Housekeeper Xu lowered his arms and eyes to show his respect for his master.
Wang Liya was furious at his neither servile nor overbearing manner. She said sternly,"Since Housekeeper Xu is here, Xia Yufei.”She turned around and said coldly to Xia Yufei,""Yesterday, a cart of humus soil was brought from the front garden. Go and use a basket to fill the garden with all the soil and plant the seedlings.”Her expression showed that she was taking revenge on Butler Xu.
"Madam, this job is very difficult for ordinary male workers to bear. Madam, you should think twice. If something happens, it will be difficult for Young Master to explain when he comes back.”Housekeeper Xu was still advising him.
"Is that so?" "Then I'd like to see if I, Mrs. Du, or this outsider girl is more important." Wang Liya sneered.”"If anyone else helps her, don't blame me for being rude." Xia Yufei, I'll give you two days to finish this.”Then, she turned around and said coldly,"Since Housekeeper Xu likes to do things, then trim all the branches and leaves here before eating.”With that, she left without looking back.
"Yes, Madam." Xia Yufei sent her off respectfully. She knew that she couldn't escape, so she could only continue to do it and not give her an excuse to blame herself.
"I'm sorry, Miss Xia. I didn't expect to harm you by helping you like this.”Housekeeper Xu angrily threw the scissors in his hand and said,"No, I have to call Young Master and tell him about this.”
"Don't, Housekeeper Xu." Xia Yufei hurriedly stopped him and said,""If you call Kefeng and start a war again, many people will be unhappy and it will cause them to be at odds with each other. I'm a servant of the Du family. This is what I should do.”
She glanced at the silent Housekeeper Xu and continued to comfort him with a smile,"Look, I made you do so many things. You're the butler of the Du family, so you don't have to do so many things. I'm really grateful to you."
Housekeeper Xu looked at her solemnly and said,"You're a kind girl. Good people will be rewarded.”
Xia Yufei came to the front garden and gasped when she saw the pile of humus in the car pocket that was taller than her. Although she used to do things at home, she had never done such heavy work. Grandma and Mom never let her do anything too heavy. Even if there was, they would do it secretly. But he had never done this before. She gritted her teeth. There was no obstacle that she could not overcome. As long as she persisted, she would be able to move it bit by bit like an ant moving its house.
Xia Yufei picked up the basket on the ground and looked at it. The car was too high and it was not easy for her to operate it alone. Thus, she tied a rope to the basket and prepared to hang it down to the ground.
She threw the basket and shovel into the pocket of the cart and climbed up. She felt a chill run down her spine as she climbed, but she finally managed to climb up with trembling hands and feet. She wiped her sweat and looked down. She felt dizzy and quickly retreated. He was afraid that he would fall.
She thought that since she had climbed up with great difficulty, it would be better not to use the basket. She would shovel the soil down first, then use the basket to carry the soil to the garden. This would save a lot of trouble. Hence, she threw the soil onto the ground. When she was tired, she sat in the car pocket to rest. After a while, her sweaty face was smeared by her hands that were covered in humus soil.
The sky gradually darkened, and the horizon seemed to have been smeared with a brush covered in water. There was a vague light in the faint darkness. The city in the distance was illuminated by colorful neon lights. Xia Yufei looked at the brilliant scene and felt a little envious. Under every light, there was a warm home. At this moment, she missed her grandmother and mother so much. In the past, at this time, her grandmother would definitely be watching her at the door, and her mother would be cooking her favorite dishes in the kitchen…Daguan Time:111420183: 40PM #Cancel review All: wdd201302 Time:111420185: 57PM #
