Our Second Master

Our Second Master Falls I'll

Everyone was stunned, including me. Who dared to accept Second Master's head? Not even speaking of myself as a maid, everyone here had something to ask from Second Master, even more they did not dare to receive this and quickly got up. But no one was able to predict this scenario, so no one dared to open their mouths. Second Master rose up, his expression did not change as he poured another cup of wine. He announced, "I, Yang Yi Qi, only rely on three things when I do business --- courage, brains and trust."

Second Master's voice was deep and his gaze was bright, "The mistakes I had committed in the past, Heavens have punished me. If everyone is willing to give me this chance, to trust in me again, from now on, we will share in the prosperity and earn money together. Yang Yi Qi will not treat all of you badly." Second Master is truly Second Master. He knows how to speak, just a few lines and quite a few people here were crying.

"As for you," Second Master looked at Wang Zhi, he pointed his thumb with the jade green ring at me and said in a low voice, "Do you remember her?"

Wang Zhi looked at me and nodded. Second Master lightly said, "Kowtow to her three times and pray she will always be alright. Then, we will forget about that day."

Wang Zhi walked in front of me and dropped down on his knees. He kowtowed three times. I anxiously looked at Second Master but he did not have any expression.

I tried to say, "It's fi...fine"

Wang Zhi rose and Second Master nodded at him.

On the way home, Second Master called me into the carriage and said,"You have suffered." I was shocked. I said it was the first time I was kowtowed to by a gentleman, I did not suffer. Second Master laughed and said, "Sit closer." I leaned closer and did not dare to look at Second Master. My head remained lowered.

Second Master said, "Your head is always lowered, what are you looking at?"

I quickly made up something, "Looking at the ring."

Second Master took down his thumb ring and placed it in my palm, "Do you like this? You can have it."

How can I dare accept this? I shook my head, "I was only.. only looking at it." Second Master took my hand and placed the thumb ring in my palm. Dark green, still carrying the heat from Second Master's body.

I carried it in my palm and did not dare to speak. This time Second Master returned and stayed. Second Master bought another big house, about the same as the previous Yang Manor. Old Mistress Yang and the misses were brought back. The manor became crowded again. The previously unfavoured Second Master has now become the Manor's owner.Besides Old Mistress Yang, everyone called him respectfully Master. Since there were more people, the housekeeper hired more maids. I saw at one glance that they were to be sent to Second Master's courtyard. I sat at the courtyard that day for very long and stared dazedly at the moon.

I've calculated in my heart how much money I had presently. After counting for half a day, I calculated a pleasant outcome. It turns out that after all these years, I could be considered a rich person. No, a rich monkey.
