Chapter 504: I’ll Choose Her

“I’ll choose her.” Second Qin nodded and said dryly, “It just so happens that this young master killed one of my quarters’ servant girls that overstepped her boundaries two days ago. She’ll take her place.”
The senior manager’s jaw was about to drop to the floor. “This? Young Master, I fear this may not be appropriate. She just entered the estate, so she doesn’t understand anything. How can she go serve in the young master’s quarters? She’s better suited as a watering and sweeping maidservant in the outer yard!”
Your entire family are watering and sweeping maidservants! Qiao Mu poked her head out from behind the wide, chubby girl and glared icily at the senior manager.
The senior manager: …
“I choose this stoic face. Send her to my court later.” After giving this order, Second Qin turned around and walked into the interior of the estate.
Phooey! Who wants to go to your bullsh*t court!
Qiao Mu shivered inwardly and was about to slip away outside, but two servants ran up and said to her with eyes full of benign envy, “Little Miss, follow us inside!”
I don’t want to!! She only came to the Qin Estate to secretly investigate the exact relationship between this Qin Estate and the Holy Water Sect incident back then.
But now, she actually bumped into that terrifying person!
She of course didn’t want to continue staying in this hellhole, not to mention running away. Who wanted to go to that whatever young master’s court!
However, if she left just like this, wouldn’t all her efforts of standing in such a long line and taking that d*mn test all go down the drain!
Was the Qin Estate connected to the Shuntian Prefecture or not? Did that Liu Yizhi have some relation to the Qin Estate?
“Please, Little Miss!” The servants gazed in puzzlement at this indecisive little lady that had anchored herself to the entrance.
This really was a strange girl.
In the Qin Estate, which little lass wouldn’t be ecstatic from being informed they had been chosen by Eldest Young Master or Second Young Master? Why was this person’s reaction so peculiar? It almost felt like she was about to run away any second now?
The servants quickly and deftly blocked our dear Qiao Mu’s way out, and they invited her into the Qin Estate with both the carrot and stick approach.
Qiao Mu was led to Second Qin’s court in bewilderment.
When she entered the garden, she saw quite a few red-crowned cranes fluffing their feathers with lowered beaks. They strolled leisurely through the courtyard, as if there were no one else present.
Qiao Mu looked up overhead at the lacquered plaque: Crane Garden.
She recalled those large cranes on the Holy Water Sect’s snowy peaks. When the Holy Water Sect was exterminated, those large cranes had either died or fled.
Qiao Mu automatically walked up to a red-crowned crane and stretched out a small hand, wanting to stroke that crane’s feathers, when she heard a crisp, ill-mannered, and angry rebuke enter her ears abruptly. “Insolent!”
Turning her head around, Qiao Mu saw a female draped in a white ferret-fur cloak. Half of that woman’s small and glossy face sunk into her white fur collar, revealing only a small, exquisite nose and animated eyes.
“Greetings to Miss Song.” Two servants hastily bowed in greeting towards the miss, not daring to slight her at all.
Qiao Mu’s movement halted only momentarily before she continued and stroked that red-crowned crane’s feathers. She kept a stoic face and didn’t bother one bit with the fuming Miss Song by the side.
“Who allowed you to touch it? Someone, come and chop off both her hands for me!” Miss Song’s darkened face emitted a dense and dangerous scent.
Just as she spoke, two body cultivators immediately stepped out from behind her and promptly reached for Qiao Mu’s shoulders.
“Song Yingxiu, you’re too full of yourself! Who gave you the guts to act so wantonly in my garden?” Second Qin’s frigid voice sounded from his quarters, and a chilly wind assaulted the two body cultivators, immediately toppling them to the ground.
