Day after day, toiling away, she was on the verge of collapse!
"Mom, where are you? Dad, where are you? Save me... *sob sob*, Su Han, if you have the ability, come and save me. These guys are a hundred times worse than you, *sob sob*..."
Li Feier cried as she washed clothes.
At this moment, by the entrance of the dilapidated thatched courtyard, several servants were peeking in, finding it immensely amusing.
"Heh heh, I told you, my new handyman girl is pretty, but you didn't believe me. Look, isn't she beautiful?"
"She's beautiful, alright, but I wonder if she has any backing. I heard she was brought in by Steward Li... I heard she has quite a background!"
"Tch, a big background? Would our boss make her wash clothes and do manual labor? Think about it, who comes here without giving a few spirit coins? But she, she didn't have a single coin. Isn't that asking for trouble!"
"So poor! Not a single spirit coin! No wonder!"
Suddenly, as the servants were watching with great interest, someone approached them from behind.
"Hmph, what are you looking at, so engrossed!"
The few men immediately turned around, startled and repeatedly apologizing.
"Hey, hey, Second Senior Brother, spare us, spare us! We were just looking casually..."
"Yes, yes, Second Senior Brother, let us go. We really didn't do anything bad!"
At this moment, a man in purple robes, with a curve of his lips, looked in the direction the men had been peeking. Indeed, he saw a beautiful woman washing clothes in the courtyard.
In the sunlight, this beauty's slender jade hands were washing clothes one after another. Her face was smudged with dirt, and she hadn't even bothered to wipe it off.
"Hiss... she really is a beauty!"
Second Senior Brother was mesmerized and stopped in his tracks.
Seeing this, the servants wisely made way. They knew that this person's status was extremely noble, a prominent figure in the outer sect.
They didn't know who he was looking for in the handyman quarters this time, but judging by his demeanor, Second Senior Brother clearly had his eye on this woman!
"Heh heh, Second Senior Brother, we were just looking. Since you're here, how about I call that girl over to pay her respects to Second Senior Brother!"
One servant said obsequiously.
The man in purple robes curved his lips, asked briefly about the situation, then waved his hand, telling the men to scram.
As for himself, he headed towards the handyman courtyard!
Seeing this, the servants all sighed, thinking it was over. This Second Senior Brother was a notorious womanizer; no woman he fancied ever escaped.
Now, it seemed this beautiful little handyman was also unfortunate...
Soon.
The man in purple robes walked into the small courtyard. Upon seeing the woman washing clothes, he immediately cupped his hands in a respectful bow. "Excuse me, Junior Sister, is the steward Liu Changfeng here?"
Upon seeing the visitor, Li Feier was immediately surprised.
This person looked well-dressed, clearly a person of importance, likely at least an outer disciple!
Li Feier immediately stood up and reported, "Reporting to Senior Brother, Steward Liu Changfeng has gone out. If you have any business, you can come back to find him next time!"
The man in purple robes immediately curved his lips and laughed heartily at Li Feier.
"Well said, sharp little girl! What is this Liu Changfeng? How dare he make me wait... Hmph hmph, I'll sit here and wait for him today! As for you, come and rub my shoulders!"
Upon hearing this.
Li Feier was immediately bewildered. After all, he was a stranger, and she was certainly unwilling to rub his shoulders. However, she could see that strength was respected here.
If she dared to refuse, this man in purple robes could kill her, and no one would seek justice for her!
"This... alright, Senior Brother, please wait a moment. I'll go wash my hands, lest I dirty Senior Brother's clothes..." Li Feier said, intending to leave.
But suddenly, she felt a blur before her eyes and was immediately blocked by the man in purple robes.
"Hmph hmph, trying to slip away? It's not that easy. You little brat, I'm doing you a favor by letting you rub my shoulders, and you're ungrateful. Now, don't blame me for not giving you a chance. Come, Senior Brother will teach you a little bit about the rules on Qing Shi Peak..."
"Ah!!"
Li Feier cried out in terror. After all, in broad daylight, this man in purple robes dared to molest her. This made her, who had been pampered since childhood, mentally collapse!
However, it was a pity that the surrounding handymen dared not come over. Even Steward Liu Changfeng, who had just returned from afar, immediately stopped in his tracks and wisely remained silent...
*Slap!*
In the struggle, Li Feier immediately hit Second Senior Brother with the laundry club she was holding!
Instantly, Li Feier drew a cut across Second Senior Brother's face!
After all, there was a nail on the laundry club for hanging it, and this nail happened to scratch Second Senior Brother!
Although he was a cultivator and the injury was not severe, it was extremely unbearable in terms of pride!
"Damn!"
Touching his face, Second Senior Brother found that he was bleeding. He instantly flew into a rage!
"You damned bitch, you dare to hit me? I'll make you wish you were dead today!"
Second Senior Brother was utterly enraged!
He was about to unleash a "Fei Yun Palm" towards Li Feier. With this palm strike, given Li Feier's strength, she would undoubtedly be crippled for life. But Second Senior Brother no longer cared.
Suddenly!
Just as his palm was about to strike, a cold scoff sounded from the side.
A woman laughed disdainfully!
"Heh heh, I wonder who it is, turns out to be Li Rulin. Using your Fei Yun Palm against a handyman girl is a bit much, isn't it?"
Second Senior Brother Li Rulin immediately looked to the side. He saw a woman in a simple and elegant white dress walking gracefully outside the small courtyard, looking as beautiful as a peony.
"Ha, so it's Senior Sister Gong! Senior Sister Gong, have you forgotten? You owe me three Qi-boosting pills, and you've owed me for months!"
Senior Sister Gong's expression faltered. She shrugged and said, "Li Rulin, Li Rulin, it's just a few small pills. Your uncle is Steward Li. Are you really so petty that you care about these few pills?"
The man in purple robes snorted. Speaking of Senior Sister Gong, he was truly exasperated. He had pursued her for three years, but she always strung him along, only asking for pills, and more pills!
And now, Li Rulin realized that Senior Sister Gong was a swindler!
"Fine, since you dare to ruin my good deed today, I'll deal with you as well..." Li Rulin snorted and, without any warning, pushed a palm towards Senior Sister Gong!
