Chapter 489 My Lady's Footbath Pool Is Open for Three Days
"Yuzhu greets the master..."
"Hmm? What did you say?"
"...I, Xiaoyu, greet the master, and greet the young lady...I have offended the two masters without knowing the real master. Please forgive me!"
Mrs. Yuzhu trembled all over and knelt in front of Lu Yu and Yang Chudie. This was extremely humiliating for her as a former mistress, but she had to do it obediently.
Seeing this, the demon clan subordinates around them couldn't help but show disbelief on their faces, quietly climbed up from the ground, and scattered like birds and beasts.
Lu Yu did not stop her, but just shook his head: "Is this the mistress? Xiaoyu, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but the subordinates you have are too bad, right? They just abandoned your mistress and ran away?"
Mrs. Yuzhu lowered her head: "They are not my subordinates..."
"Not your subordinates?" Lu Yu looked at her strangely, "Then they still obey you?"
"I am a demon spirit that has recently surrendered to Lord Hu Zun. I was just named the mistress not long ago, and I don't have my own subordinates, so Lord Hu Zun borrowed his people to me... I am here today to select my subordinates, but I didn't expect that the first person I chose would be the master!" Mrs. Yuzhu replied.
"Tiger Lord? Who is that?"
"Lord Tiger Lord is the governor of Dulong Port. He has extraordinary abilities and has the final say here."
Lu Yu couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "So, these people didn't run away? Instead, they went to ask for help?"
Mrs. Yuzhu was shocked and kowtowed quickly, saying: "It's all my fault. I have implicated the master. I didn't mean it. Please forgive me... If the master feels embarrassed, I can go and plead with Lord Tiger Lord. I will never implicate the master..."
As she spoke, her eyes rolled around.
Lu Yu knew that Mrs. Yuzhu was not convinced, so how could her little tricks be hidden from his eyes?
He didn't say anything at the moment, but just laughed: "It's not difficult. My young lady is here. Even if Tiger Lord comes in person, it's just one more servant, just right for you to make a pair... Miss San, don't you think so?"
The crowd around was shocked by Lu Yu's tone.
Even Madam Yuzhu felt troubled. She didn't expect that even the name of Tiger Lord couldn't scare these two guys. So where did they come from?
Yang Chudie heard Lu Yu asking for her opinion, so she said: "Do you really plan to keep her by your side?"
"If Miss doesn't want to use her, then I'll kill her!" Lu Yu said indifferently.
Madam Yuzhu was startled and immediately kowtowed again and again: "Miss, spare me, miss, spare me! Xiaoyu will serve you wholeheartedly in the future and will never have any second thoughts. Please be merciful!"
Yang Chudie glanced at her, weighed the pros and cons in her mind, and said: "Our vanguard has only arrived here not long ago, and it is estimated that they have not had time to take root yet. It is not impossible to use her, but how can we guarantee that she will not play tricks and have no second thoughts?"
Lu Yu immediately understood.
On the surface, her words sounded like she was questioning Madam Yuzhu's loyalty, but in Lu Yu's ears, she actually tacitly allowed him to take advantage of this.
"Miss, don't worry, I will let her find a way to prove her loyalty!"
He pulled Madam Yuzhu up from the ground and said with a smile: "Xiaoyu, don't say that I didn't give you a chance. Now whether you can get the trust of my lady depends on your own performance!"
"Thank you, master..." Madam Yuzhu said in shock.
"Why call me master? Since you are my lady's maid, it would be a mess if you call me master. How about this, you can call me Brother Ming from now on!" Lu Yu said kindly.
"...Yes, yes, Brother Ming..."
Mrs. Yuzhu always felt that Lu Yu's eyes were malicious, and she couldn't help but become more and more trembling.
"But... Brother Ming, Xiaoyu doesn't know what to do specifically?"
"Don't you know how to serve people?" Lu Yu said impatiently, "It's getting late now, you should arrange a comfortable place for our young lady first!"
Mrs. Yuzhu was relieved immediately. It turned out to be such a simple request. Now she finally has nothing to worry about...
"Yes, yes, Xiaoyu will arrange it for the young lady and Brother Ming... How about you two temporarily stay in my house tonight?"
"Your house?"
Lu Yu frowned and sneered: "Our young lady is a rich woman, how can she live in the house of a lowly maid like you? Who do you think our young lady is?"
Mrs. Yuzhu choked, silently swallowed her anger, and said: "It's my fault... How about you two temporarily stay in Chunfeng Tower? It's the best inn in the whole Dulong Port. Many masters who come from the immortal world have settled there..."
"Inn? How can that be possible?"
Lu Yu shook his head repeatedly and said, "Our young lady's family is prominent, and there are rules for food, clothing, housing and transportation. In the past, when she was in the Beifeng Dynasty, she had to drain the water in the pool for washing her feet for three days... After all the tiring journey on the boat, there was no way on the sea before, so how could she squeeze into a shabby inn with a group of rural villagers on land?"
This remark caused the crowd around to exclaim repeatedly. They didn't expect that the human young lady in front of them actually had such a prominent family background, and the luxury and pomp in her life were beyond imagination!
Yang Chudie couldn't help but twitch her mouth.
Washing feet for three days? Is this a compliment to her pomp, or a satire on her smelly feet?
"This... Brother Ming, then what do you say?" Madam Yuzhu couldn't help but be dumbfounded.
Lu Yu looked at the crowd around him, and suddenly asked in a loud voice: "Excuse me, which house in Dulong Port is the best?"
Everyone was stunned and didn't understand.
But there were still some people who answered sparsely: "The best house is naturally the Governor's Mansion of Lord Hu Zun..."
Hearing this, Lu Yu suddenly smiled, then turned around and looked at Madam Yuzhu with a smile.
"Then let's reluctantly arrange it in the Governor's Mansion for the time being! You can go with us to inform Lord Hu Zun and ask him to vacate the mansion first and let our young lady live there for a few days!"
The whole audience was silent again.
Everyone was shocked.
Madam Yuzhu suddenly realized at this time that the other party would not let her off easily. This was clearly asking her to submit a letter of surrender!
If she wanted to survive, she had to break up with Lord Hu Zun first!
