After entering the third room, to his surprise, there were three old men in their fifties sitting inside. All of them were wearing the same blue robes and small hats as if they were afraid that others wouldn't know that they were servants.
The three of them were shaking their heads. When they saw Lin Wanrong come in, they stopped talking and looked at him.
After waiting for a long time, these old men still didn't say a word. They didn't ask Lin Wanrong to do anything and just stared at him with a playful look in their eyes.
What did this mean? Lin Wanrong was puzzled. He carefully looked at his body. Other than the dirty clothes from fighting with Dong Qingshan's group, there didn't seem to be anything attractive.
Is it because I'm handsome? I quite agree with this point, but I want to attract girls, not shriveled old men like you.
Lin Wanrong saw that these old men were staring at him. Their eyes didn't move at all as if they were watching monkeys in the zoo. He was a bit angry in his heart. Dead or alive, say something.
The arrogance in his heart rose, and he stared fiercely at the other three people. The four of them stared at each other, staring at each other, and no one was willing to relax.
In the end, Lin Wanrong arrogantly moved a small stool and sat in front of the three old men. His eyes were even fiercer than the three old men in front of him.
"This kid is shameless …" After an unknown amount of time, one of the old men finally spoke with a hint of appreciation in his eyes.
"This kid is extremely shameless …" The second old man said with the same appreciation.
The third old man looked at Lin Wanrong and nodded: "Your shameless appearance is quite similar to my style in the past."
Lin Wanrong suddenly felt that his face was too thin. In front of these extremely shameless seniors, he was so small.
"Shamelessness is the basic element of being a senior servant. Boy, you're really ruthless. From you, I seem to see my past self. A new star is slowly rising in the world of servants. Believe me, you will become an outstanding servant. "The first old man said shamelessly.
Lin Wanrong spat lightly. These guys were completely crazy.
The second old man continued, "Congratulations, you have passed the test. As long as you're willing, you can become an honorable servant of our Xiao Family at any time. "
"Wait, wait," Lin Wanrong hurriedly called out, "Which big brother can explain to me what is going on?"
The third old man chuckled and said, "No problem. What you want to ask is, how did you pass these three tests? Hehe, listen to me slowly. For the first test, we want servants who can read and write, we don't want illiterate people. For the second test, we want servants who are quick-witted and flexible, we don't want retarded people. For the third test, we, the three most outstanding servants of the Xiao Family, will be overseeing the test. Hehe, this is the most important test. First, we want to look at the candidate's appearance. You also know that the Xiao Family is a famous and influential family. Those who are ugly must first go for plastic surgery before coming here. Second, we want to look at the candidate's character. For those who are extremely honest and sincere, we need them to guard the storehouse. This way, we can rest assured that they won't steal what they're guarding. As for people like you, hehe, you're exactly the kind of elite talent that we're looking for. Apart from the storehouse, you can go anywhere. "
F * ck, this old man is clearly saying that my character is corrupt. Lin Wanrong's face showed a trace of resentment. The old man hurriedly said, "Don't worry, we're not doubting your character. For people like you, we won't judge you based on your character."
"You mean that I have no character?" Lin Wanrong said angrily.
"Hehe, I didn't say that. Actually, we haven't seen such a thick-skinned talent like you for many years. When we saw you just now, we had a feeling of shock. It was as if we saw ourselves in the past. We believe that, after careful training, you will definitely become the most dazzling star in the world of servants in the future. His future is truly limitless, and he has great potential. "
After the old man finished speaking, he even laughed a few times in an extremely exaggerated manner. He had an expression of "I'm a talent scout and you're a good steed".
Lin Wanrong sighed helplessly. It seemed that he had to continue practicing the Divine Skill of Thick-Skinned. Looking at the expressions of these three guys, he was afraid that as long as he mingled in the Xiao Family's mansion in the future, he would definitely be eaten by them.
The three old men introduced themselves one by one. It turned out that they weren't bragging. They had mingled in the Xiao Family for thirty or forty years. They had been following the Xiao Family since the time of the Old Master. The first old man was the champion of the Xiao Family's culinary competition for ten consecutive years. The second old man was a craftsman. He was proficient in carpentry and tiling. He was the winner of the Xiao Family's "Luban Gold Medal" several times. The third old man was known as the Flower Addict. He was good at planting flowers and trees. He was the winner of the Xiao Family's labor medal.
The three old men were very interested in Lin Wanrong. They all clamored for him to follow them so that they would have a successor to carry on their unique skills.
Lin Wanrong was not interested in any of these things. He just wanted to stay here for a year and repay Old Wei's kindness. Then, he would leave.
Seeing these old men arguing for him, Lin Wanrong said impatiently, "What are you arguing about? Who's in charge here?"
The third old man chuckled. He was the most thick-skinned among them. He said, "Your shameless look reminds me of my demeanor back in the day." This sentence made Lin Wanrong the most angry. Through the introduction just now, Lin Wanrong knew that he was called Uncle Fu.
Uncle Fu said, "As long as you pass the first two tests and the three of us, there won't be any problems. We just need to report to Young Madam, and you can sign the contract directly."
The Young Madam they were talking about was Lady Xiao. These three old men had followed the Xiao Family's Old Master. Naturally, they were very senior. They had watched Lady Xiao get married and had always called her Young Madam.
"Indenture contract?" Hearing these three words, Lin Wanrong's heart skipped a beat. "Erm, erm, indenture contract. Does that mean I have to be sold to the Xiao Family as a slave for the rest of my life?"
"Of course." Uncle Fu said confidently, "As long as you sign the indenture contract, you will be a glorious servant of the Xiao Family. You will have a golden rice bowl for the rest of your life. You will belong to the Xiao Family for the rest of your life. You will be a member of the Xiao Family in life and a ghost of the Xiao Family in death. This is the glory that countless people dream of. Madam will also give you the surname Xiao. You will not be called Lin San, but Xiao San. "
"Xiao San?" Lin Wanrong was shocked. "And for the rest of my life?"
Lin Wanrong had calculated everything, but he had forgotten that he had to sign the indenture contract to become a servant of someone else. In other words, he would belong to someone else for the rest of his life. There was no such thing as a one-year contract.
Damn it, he had to change his surname to Xiao. For a male chauvinist like Lin Wanrong, this was absolutely unacceptable.
"Then, can I be a contract employee?" Lin Wanrong rolled his eyes and said.
"Contract employee?" The three old men exclaimed together, "What the hell is a contract employee?"
