Alien landlady

Chapter 3 Accepting Employment
After crying like venting, Bai Tongtong didn't know when she fell asleep again. When she woke up, it was already dawn outside the window, and there were various sounds of people coming and going in the corridor. After washing, she went downstairs to have breakfast, and then went to Shoe store to see how her shoes are doing. Yesterday the shoemaker said they could pick them up in the morning.

It was already bright daylight on the street, the sun was as dazzling as yesterday, and I was sweating after walking a little. The shops were already open for business at this time. Bai Tongtong walked into the shoe store, and the little apprentice took her new shoes that she had just finished from the workshop behind. Come out, get down on one knee and help her change.

Bai Tongtong took out the cloth bag she bought yesterday and put away her outdoor boots, paid the balance of the shoes, and walked out of the shoe store.

Aimlessly walking back and forth on the main road of this town, Bai Tongtong finally found a small table in an open-air restaurant that could not be exposed to the sun. He wanted a glass of drink and asked for a long time. Except for water, it was wine, the most expensive What is honey water.

What else can Bai Tongtong say, she can only ask the waiter to give her a glass of honey water, and if she wants to add a spoonful of honey, she will have to pay more.

Honey is a luxury, Bai Tongtong firmly remembered this cognition.

Taking a sip of the honey water worth half a silver coin, Bai Tongtong was thinking about what to do next as he watched the crowds of people coming and going on the street.

She has no purpose in life here, and sooner or later the little money on her body will go to waste, so she can't be turned into a bandit, right?

Bai Tongtong drank the honey water with some melancholy, she had to find a job.

Bai Tongtong, who was too immersed in her own emotions, lost her vigilance to the outside world. Just when she felt that the sunlight in front of her eyes had dimmed a bit, she realized that there was a group of people standing in front of her.

The four men headed by Aix had the marks of several fights on their bodies. The archer carried his broken bow on his back, and the heel of his left thigh was bandaged. The four of them stared at her as if She is their enemy.

Bai Tongtong waved his hand calmly and grinned, as if he wasn't frightened by their cannibalism, "Hey, you guys came out with delicious fruits? Would you like to sit down and have a drink? It's hot enough today."

But that group of men finally crawled out of the forest, saw the culprit who caused him such misery, and all they wanted was revenge.

It really hurts their face to be tricked by a woman, not to mention that this woman stole their money, leaving them with no money for a hotel.

"You shameless bitch, you don't know what to do if I let you go in the forest." The captain who was wielding a two-handed giant sword still waved it with one hand, and the giant sword stretched out in front of Bai Tongtong with a whistling sound. The point of the sword pointed straight at the tip of her nose.

Immediately, idlers gathered around to watch the excitement on the street, including soldiers and civilians, men, women, old and young.

Surrounded by three floors inside and three floors outside, they are very sensible not to get too close, so as not to hurt themselves.

"Thanks to you gentlemen, when you talk, you gnash your teeth. You decide what is right and wrong? Did I provoke you? Why don't you tell them which part of the forest you let me go?" Bai Tongtong raised his arm With a wave, the onlookers were still dragged into the water, "Come on, say it loudly, tell them where we met in the forest?"

The onlookers booed vigorously based on the common principle of the universe that watching the excitement is not a big deal. Many people vaguely felt that it must be the fault of this group of men. They bullied the female mercenary in the forest because they were alone. What shameful things did they do? , was retaliated against by others.

Bai Tongtong's action made all the men speechless. If they said that they met in Yeguogou to fight for fruit, the matter in front of them would be over, and they would be constantly harassed by others to snatch them away and bring them out. the results.But in fact, it would be good for them to come out alive.

Under the premise of not being able to recognize Yeguogou, this group of men didn't have the IQ to quickly make up an excuse to get away with it, and Bai Tongtong didn't intend to give them this chance.

Bai Tongtong took out a silver coin to pay the bill from his pocket, shook it to the waiter and slapped it on the table, don't use the change and use the rest as a tip, drank the honey water in the glass in one gulp, licked the corner of his mouth and stood up, baring his teeth With a smile, "Gentlemen, let's have some fun in such a fine weather, goodbye."

The onlookers were blown up again. They saw Bai Tongtong's white teeth smiling just now, and directly put her in the ranks of high-ranking nobles, and mercilessly ridiculed those men who didn't know what to do. With a voice imitating Bai Tongtong's accent, he said "gentlemen", which made more people laugh.

Bai Tongtong ignored the sharp sword point in front of him and walked away from the other side of the chair.

The crowd of onlookers thought that the excitement had come to an end, and they were all about to disperse one after another.

At this time, the mercenaries who were hung on the wall behind them and couldn't get off the platform suddenly made an attack, and heavy weapons rushed towards the back of Bai Tongtong's head with the sound of wind.

Under the unanimous exclamation of everyone, Bai Tongtong's short body avoided the blow to his neck, put his hands on the ground, touched the ground with his toes, squatted down and rotated half a circle, facing the one who swung his sword and prepared for the second blow The captain rushed forward.

Her weapons were all in her purse, so it was obviously too late to get them at this time, and it was a very stupid way to fight for weapons. She saw their weakness in relying on their own weapons, so she fought them in close combat.

Amidst waves of cheers and exclamations from the audience, Bai Tongtong beat her opponents helplessly. She clung to each opponent, attacking the most painful and vulnerable parts with her elbows and knees, It made their teammates unable to assist with weapons, because if they were not careful, they might hurt their own people. Although the archer stretched his broken bow nervously, he couldn't shoot a single arrow.

When only the archers were left standing on the field, the crowd was suddenly pushed aside, and a new team came out from behind the human wall, and it was the mayor who brought people over.

The chunky mayor didn't ask anything, but directed his own staff to expel these troublemakers from the town, then raised his head, pointed at Bai Tongtong's nose, and warned her to be quiet.

Bai Tongtong nodded and bowed, apologizing and thanking her. His neat and beautiful white teeth softened the mayor's stern attitude. In the end, he taught him a few words and led the people to leave.

After a fight just now, it didn't hurt the store's things much. Bai Tongtong found a shady seat and sat down again. He snapped his fingers and called the waiter. He ordered another glass of honey water. After a while, he brought it up and drank it. The sweetness was even stronger. , and after seeing that Bai Tongtong was very satisfied, the waiter withdrew with a courteous smile.

It is a pleasure to order sweets after exercising. Bai Tongtong sipped this not-so-cheap drink, leaned on the back of the chair with half-closed eyes, relaxed his muscles, and had a good rest.

She was enjoying herself in the gentle breeze, when she suddenly smelled a fragrant wind, and then stopped beside her and did not leave.

Bai Tongtong sighed, opened her eyes helplessly and raised her head to see who disturbed her peace.

What catches the eye are two tutu skirts, one of which is covered with layers of lace.

Bai Tongtong sighed again, raised her head, and smiled politely, "What is this noble lady doing?"

Standing next to Bai Tongtong were the noble lady and her senior maid who were forced to eat at the same table last night. After one night, the maid still had a haughty look on her face, and the lady still looked weak and pitiful, but her eyes Shiny, with a look of anticipation.

The hairs on the back of Bai Tongtong's neck couldn't help but stand up quietly, taking precautions.

"May I sit down?" the noble lady asked politely, with a very sweet smile, her pronunciation was indistinctly nasal, and she had a different accent.

Bai Tongtong raised her eyebrows, this was the first time she heard this young lady speak, and she didn't hear her complete speech last night except for screaming.

"Miss, it's a great honor. Please sit down."

The noble lady immediately sat down on the opposite side of the table, with a straight posture, neither crooked nor toppled, coughed lightly, and formally introduced herself.

"I'm the daughter of Steve *** family, my name is Rose, Rose? Seiya? ***, you can call me Seiya, Rose is the name of the family."

Bai Tongtong had a sip of honey water in his mouth. After listening to the other party's introduction of his family's surname, he had no time to take a breath, so he quickly swallowed it down, regardless of the pain in his throat, and asked, "***?!"

"Yes, ***? Have you heard of it?" Seiya was very excited.

"Oh, this is really... a good surname, a very good surname." Bai Tongtong felt a sharp pain in his throat, grabbed the cup and took a few sips of water slowly, taking a break.

Seiya didn't hear the shock in her words, she was glad that her family was known to strangers.

"Actually, my family is just a hereditary low-ranking nobleman, not that famous."

"No, your family's surname is quite famous, really." What could Bai Tongtong say, she could only insist on her own statement, "This surname is very famous, although it is a low-level nobleman, it depends on the temperament of the young lady's conversation , you know how profound this family has, and only such a family can raise such an elegant and charming young lady."

Thanks to the eloquence honed by chatting on QQ, swiping Weibo, and rolling up sleeves, Bai Tongtong is so quick-witted.

Seiya laughed more and more happily, and even her maid's expression softened a little.

"Then, Seiya, why are you looking for me specifically?"

"That's right." Seiya lowered her head slightly, a faint blush appeared on her face, and the girl was seductively shy, "I'm leaving home this time to go to Fort Chamington to marry my fiancé."

"Oh, congratulations, beautiful lady." Bai Tongtong nodded slightly, "Don't tell me, it's just you and your maid on this trip?"

"There is also a coachman." Seiya added.

"Three." Bai Tongtong probably knew what the other party's intentions were, "Miss Noble Married Far Away, Doesn't She Even Have an Escort Knight?"

"Our *** family is just a small nobleman in the countryside, and the only knight in the family is less than ten years old." Seiya smiled slightly, with a little uneasiness, "Fort Chamington was a military fortress at first, and later became a large one. Cities, where there are many people, there are more nobles."

Bai Tongtong listened quietly. Seya, who was nervous about the future, could inadvertently reveal a lot of useful information to her, and there was no need to interrupt her narration that was getting more and more off topic.

"My fiancé's family name is Galti, and he is a vassal of Viscount Steve Fasaias. Of course, you must know that Viscount Fasaias is also his vassal. My fiancé arrived a few years ago. Fort Chammington went to work for the Viscount's nephew, but he couldn't come back to get married, and the Viscount generously subsidized my dowry and travel expenses, allowing me to go to Fort Chammington."

"Why didn't the generous and kind viscount sponsor your two knights again? I thought it was also the responsibility of the vassal, and the children of the vassals are also the children of the lord." Bai Tongtong started talking nonsense, and the conversation must go on. Can't be less.

"Well, the viscount originally wanted to lend me two knights, but unfortunately, the viscount had other needs and sent them out early. There is only the basic manpower to guard the mansion, so there is no way to lend them to me. I can only do this Get on the road."

Bai Tongtong had nothing to say, she was just talking nonsense, it could be a blind cat or a dead mouse.

"It must be very important to let the Viscount send out more than half of his knights."

"Hmm..." Seiya nodded, and just as she was about to continue, her maid interrupted suddenly, "Miss, let's get down to business, we have to hurry."

Seya smiled embarrassedly at Bai Tongtong, "I'm sorry, I'm too excited, let's get back to business."

"My dear lady, don't feel any uneasiness, just tell me what you need."

"If you're fine right now, can you please be my guard and take me to Fort Chamington?" Seiya finished speaking in one breath, watching Bai Tongtong nervously waiting for her reply.

Bai Tongtong smiled secretly in his heart, but narrowed his eyes slightly, pretending to be a little hesitant, and said in a tone, "My dear lady, do you know how far Fort Chamington is from here?"

Sure enough, Seiya misunderstood and thought it was a hint to negotiate the price, "The viscount gave me a lot of dowry, I can afford your price, you are so powerful, I feel at ease with you escorting me all the way, from Xinxin Town to Chaiming It will take about half a month for Tonburg, how about I give you a gold coin a day?"

Bai Tongtong certainly has no idea about the various prices at present, but since Seiya is so excited, it must be considered a good price, at least it is easy to earn, as long as this noble lady is protected from unnecessary harassment, and she arrives in Chamington safely Fort, and delivered it to her fiancé.

"If you are willing to go to Fort Zammington with me, I can also introduce you to other noble women and serve as their guards. It is far easier to make money than being a mercenary. At least it can save a lot of money for buying medicine." Seiya Fearing that the other party would not agree, another tempting condition was thrown out.

The corners of Bai Tongtong's mouth turned up, and he smiled cheerfully, "What the noble lady said is right, why should I be a mercenary who lives and dies when I can serve as a guard for noble women."

Seiya smiled even more happily, "Great, you agreed."

"So, when will the next itinerary depart?"

"Early tomorrow morning. There will be room in the carriage, and you won't have to squeeze in front of the driver."

"Okay, that's it." Bai Tongtong stretched out her right hand, signaling Seiya to do the same, and she took the initiative to hold her hand and shook it, "The agreement has been reached. By the way, let me introduce myself, my surname is Bai, and my name is Tongtong." , the honorable lady can just call me Tongtong."

"Okay, Tongtong." Seiya pointed to her maid, "Her name is Fen, and the driver's name is Laurie, she is her husband."

Bai Tongtong stood up and stretched out her right hand to Fen, "Does Fen need my protection?"

Fen imitated Seiya's action just now, stretched out his right hand to hold Bai Tongtong, and squeezed tightly, "Don't think this is us begging you, don't forget how the mayor just let you go, otherwise you will have to Get out of town."

Knowing that the mayor let him go because of Seiya's efforts behind the scenes, Bai Tongtong raised his eyebrows, but every yard counts for one yard, and sincerity belongs to Chengqing. I shook it back.

Fen suddenly felt pain, so he relaxed first, and Bai Tongtong let her go, withdrew his hand, and then turned around to thank Seiya.

Seiya didn't accept this kind of affection, but instead said it was a thank you for last night.

The two went back and forth politely for a few times, and finally stopped talking, and parted ways. Seiya went back to the hotel to rest, and Bai Tongtong made preparations for the long-distance trip and bought some things needed on the way.
