Quick Transmigration: Can This Kind of Scum Become the Chosen One?

Chapter 272 The Stable Boy Transforms into a General

Because of an accident that happened in Xiao Ma's previous room, the room got flooded.

The housekeeper simply changed Xiao Ma's room.

They moved Little Horse to another place to live with the other servants.

This is where several servants live together.

It's not as spacious as before.

But for Xiao Ma, the room now is much better than before.

There are at least several people living in the room.

Those guys who want to bully him should at least consider others.

However, the people in this room didn't get along well with Xiao Ma.

There was practically no one in the Jiang family who was on good terms with Xiao Ma.

They just weren't as outrageous as those people in the kitchen.

The group wasn't too happy about Xiao Ma moving in.

However, their rooms weren't full, and since Xiao Ma would be doing some chores with them later, they let Xiao Ma move in.

The group made it clear that they did not welcome Xiao Ma.

Don't bother them unless it's important.

Xiao Ma also lay quietly in bed recovering from his injuries.

Because his injury hadn't healed, the housekeeper didn't assign him any work.

However, it is clear that after the pony left the stable, it did some odd jobs.

He made two mistakes while working in the stables, and it was already an extraordinary favor that he was allowed to stay.

Xiao Ma wasn't very happy. The difference in pay between doing odd jobs and being a stable boy this month was significant.

But he has no other choice now.

He can't just do whatever he wants.

Everything is decided by the master.

Thinking of his monthly salary, Xiao Ma felt another pang of heartache.

All the money I had painstakingly saved each month was gone.

Aside from two doctor visits, they took all the rest of the money.

But they said the money was all used to pay for his doctor's treatment, and he had no way to get his money back.

But he won't let it go so easily.

He will remember all the humiliation they inflict upon him.

If he gets the chance in the future, he will definitely take revenge on them one by one.

Now he needs to recover from his injuries first, and then work hard so that his master can see him and trust him again.

Only in this way could he gain a foothold in the Jiang family.

With no one bothering him, Xiao Ma recovered quickly.

However, he still has many scars on his body.

Those red, swollen, and broken areas all left dark marks.

Even Xiao Ma's face had scratches.

Xiao Ma can be said to have been disfigured.

Xiao Ma didn't care; on the contrary, he felt that the scars on his face made him look more intimidating.

That's what makes a real adult.

Xiao Ma is only fifteen years old this year.

Because he was small in stature and thin and weak, he looked like someone who could be easily bullied.

Now he at least looks rather fierce.

Xiao Ma was assigned to empty the swill.

This job was dirty and tiring, and since no one else wanted to do it, it was pushed onto Xiao Ma.

Another dirty and tiring job was cleaning the outhouses.

However, the outhouse is cleaned only once a day, so you can just endure it for a short while and rest at other times.

The swill has to be disposed of three times a day, and we have to wait for the kitchen to finish cleaning up in the evening, which takes a long time.

Xiao Ma had no right to say no; he either had to dump the swill or face the charge of dereliction of duty being brought down again.

If he gets another beating, Xiao Ma doesn't know if he can survive it.

If he can live, of course he hopes to live well.

Only by living can one have the opportunity to climb higher.

Only by climbing high enough can one have enough say.

Only then can they repay the humiliations they once suffered.

However, the job of emptying swill requires dealing with people in the kitchen.

Xiao Ma was initially a little worried, but the people in the kitchen didn't do anything to make things difficult for him or deliberately make things difficult for him.

The two acted as if nothing had happened.

The kitchen staff didn't move because the housekeeper had warned them.

Recently, the master has had very important guests, and there are frequent visits to the mansion.

All servants must be careful in their words and actions, and must never neglect the distinguished guests or delay the master's business.

The servants didn't know who the distinguished guest was, nor did they know about the master's business.

But they knew that if the master made a successful business and earned money, he would give everyone bonuses.

This reward is much more than the usual wages.

We must do a good job.

So the people in the kitchen didn't go out of their way to cause trouble for Xiao Ma.

Little Ma also breathed a sigh of relief.

These guests were people Jiang's father met at the racecourse.

Originally, Jiang's father would not have participated in these activities.

Now, because Jiang's father has learned to ride a horse and shoot an arrow, and he's quite good at it.

His business partner invited him to the racecourse, and he volunteered to go along.

Others were also surprised that Jiang's father was participating in the event this time.

Usually, after dinner, Mr. Jiang would leave first. He would decline any further activities they planned to do.

Everyone learned that Jiang's father had just learned to ride a horse and shoot an arrow.

Let Father Jiang show everyone his skills.

Father Jiang did not refuse and generously showed off his skills.

Anyway, Master Wu said that his skill level, while not the best, was still quite respectable.

Everyone praised Jiang's father's skills, disbelieving that he had only recently learned them and had been hiding his true abilities.

Only then did Jiang's father realize that when others came to ride horses, they would sit on the horse and chat, with someone leading the horse for them.

And archery and such, they were all just playing around.

It's a shame that Jiang's father thought they were all very capable.

Because I don't know anything about this activity, I don't dare to participate.

Of course, I was also thinking of rushing back to spend time with my family.

Looking at it now, it was incredibly hasty.

It's not difficult at all.

Besides the business partners I see regularly, there are also some I haven't met before.

Someone introduced them to Jiang's father.

Those people are not just doing business; they all have powerful backers.

They were all sons of officials.

Jiang's father gained some recognition thanks to his outstanding horsemanship and archery skills.

Jiang's father also connected with certain people.

If they can cooperate in the future, Jiang's father's business empire could expand considerably.

Therefore, Father Jiang attached great importance to this and specially invited them to his residence as guests.

Little Horse was carrying buckets of swill, intending to exit through the back door.

I happened to run into the old man and a group of people near the back door.

They are looking after Jiang's father's horses at the stable.

For convenience, the stables were built near the back gate.

Horses and carriages usually enter and exit through the back door.

Xiao Ma was pushing the slop bucket out the back door.

Upon seeing the master over there, Xiao Ma wanted to go up and greet him.

If he wants to climb the ranks, he can't let the master forget him.

Moreover, he was very familiar with horses.

He can explain things to the guests.

Little Ma had only taken two steps when he was stopped by a guard.

"The master is entertaining distinguished guests. You should empty this slop bucket quickly so as not to disturb the guests."

Little Horse had no choice but to go empty the slop bucket first.

The guard kept his eyes on Xiao Ma until he walked out of the back, then he felt relieved.

There really are people deliberately getting close to the master.

The master is entertaining distinguished guests right now, and no one is allowed to disturb him.

The guards originally thought that everyone would deliberately avoid the place since they knew that a distinguished guest was coming.

They just need to follow behind and show off the grandeur of the Jiang family.

Surprisingly, the young lady was right.

There really are people who haven't heard the housekeeper's urging and warnings these past few days.

The butler emphasized many times that we should not approach the VIPs and should give them a wide berth.

This little horse even deliberately went in front of the distinguished guest.

Fortunately, the young lady instructed them to surround the master from all sides, with him at the center.

Otherwise, if the little horse ran right up to the master, they wouldn't have had time to stop it.

Little Ma's face might scare our distinguished guests.

Moreover, he was a sloppy dung collector, and he smelled strongly of slop.

She even dared to get close to the master; I really don't know what he was thinking.

If the pony really runs up to the master, it will disturb the distinguished guest.

The master will definitely punish them.

I almost got killed by Little Horse.

Fortunately, the young lady had warned them in advance.

Otherwise, it would be a huge mistake.

Jiang He reminded the guards because one of the distinguished guests Jiang's father brought back this time was Xiao Ma's benefactor in the story.

That distinguished guest had a particular fondness for horses.

In the story, the person was encountered when Xiao Ma drove the carriage in through the back door.

The two became acquainted through horses.

Little Ma is so young, yet he knows so much about horses, which is truly admirable.

Later, when the distinguished guest learned that Xiao Ma wanted to learn to ride a horse, he taught Xiao Ma to ride.

That's how the little horse learned to ride a horse.

Later, in the fighting ranks, Xiao Ma met that distinguished guest again.

Although our relationship was only brief at the time.

However, the distinguished guest still took extra care of Xiao Ma.

The distinguished guest got the pony into the cavalry.

The danger is greatly reduced compared to infantry.

It could be said that Xiao Ma's initial survival on the battlefield was thanks to that distinguished guest.

Now that this distinguished guest has been intercepted by Jiang's father, it's impossible for Xiao Ma to see him again.

Jiang's father successfully made contact with the distinguished guest.

Jiang's father's business has also expanded significantly.

When Xiao Ma returned, the stable was empty, which he found regrettable.

It's a pity that I no longer have the opportunity to show my face in front of the master.

After this incident passed.

Xiao Ma's temporarily peaceful life was disrupted by another unexpected event.

When Xiao Ma was carrying the slop bucket in the kitchen, the bucket suddenly cracked open.

The entire bucket of swill overflowed.

Moreover, it happened in the kitchen, and some of the swill splashed directly onto the vegetables.

The other servants were horrified when they saw the swill bucket.

What the hell is going on? Swill has splashed into the food, how are they supposed to eat it?

Little Ma is truly more trouble than he's worth.

Xiao Ma had thought of taking the bucket of swill out since it was already full, but who would have thought that the bucket would crack?

Xiao Ma was the biggest victim, as a lot of the swill was sprayed directly on him.

The shoes and trouser legs were covered in swill.

The kitchen staff were even more unhappy.

It seems the lessons learned were not enough.

That's why Xiao Ma can still disgust them like this today.

The swill was spilled everywhere.

They were responsible for cleaning the kitchen.

Little Ma, you're really great.

Little Ma has already provoked them, so they certainly can't just let him bully them like this.

It just so happens that we haven't finished using the medicine powder yet, so it seems we should let Little Horse taste it again.

Let him know that they are not to be trifled with.

Upon inspection, it was found that the slop bucket had been used for a long time and was worn out, which is why this unexpected situation occurred.

Since it was an accident, no one can be blamed.

The housekeeper then instructed the kitchen staff to clean the kitchen and replace the slop buckets with new ones.

Little Ma should also pay close attention to these swill buckets in the future, and find them in time next time to prevent the same thing from happening again.

Xiao Ma was not punished at all, which made the people in the kitchen very dissatisfied.

I think Xiao Ma did it on purpose.

After dinner, the young pony realized something was wrong with him.

He felt his body become very stiff, and every movement required a lot of effort.

Moreover, he felt somewhat uneasily disoriented; when he tried to raise his hand, it wouldn't respond.

I tried to lift my foot, but it didn't respond.

It takes a lot of effort to control it before you get even a slight response.

Little Horse didn't know what was wrong with him.

She was perfectly fine before the meal.

Xiao Ma looked at the food he had just eaten. Had the food been drugged again?

Xiao Ma looked at the people in the kitchen.

I saw the ill intent in their eyes.

It's them again, it's them again.

Little Horse was angry and a little scared.

What are they going to do?

"Little Ma, come and carry this slop bucket! What are you standing there for?"

The kitchen staff came over and put the slop bucket in Xiao Ma's hands.

The little horse's hands were stiff; it wanted to grasp something, but several of its fingers wouldn't obey its commands.

Finally, the bucket of swill was not held properly and fell to the ground.

Fortunately, the bucket didn't tip over; it just wobbled a little bit out, unlike last time.

"Xiao Ma, how come you can't even hold a garbage can? You look so dazed, did you not sleep well or drink too much? Let me take it out for you, so you don't ruin our kitchen again."

The kitchen staff took the swill buckets out and placed them on the swill bucket cart outside.

The others were also very wary when they saw Xiao Ma like this; last time they had spent a long time cleaning it up.

If Xiao Ma continues like this, they will get angry.

If you're going to do a job, do it properly. What kind of behavior is this, slacking off like this?

Xiao Ma felt like he could control his body again, so he quickly left the kitchen and pushed the swill cart away.

As the little horse passed by the lotus pond, its body became uncontrollable again.

He went back to that stiff state.

The little horse fell straight to the ground like a stone sculpture.

I want to climb up but I can't.

It feels like I can't feel my own body anymore.

At this moment, Xiao Ma sensed someone beside him and tried to look up to see who it was, but his head felt incredibly heavy and he couldn't lift it.

He felt something fall on him.

He thought he heard a knocking sound.

What are they knocking on?

The little horse did not feel any pain.

Then I was lifted up.

Little Horse quickly figured out what they were going to do.

He was thrown into the lotus pond.

The pony was submerged in water.

He wanted to struggle, to swim to shore.

But he can't.

He can't move.

He sank to the bottom of the water like a stone sculpture.

Finally, he could move.

The little horse could move its hands and struggled to swim upwards.

Unfortunately, I still have no feeling in my feet.

However, the lotus pond was not deep, and Xiao Ma managed to swim to the surface by relying on his hands.

There was no one on the shore; those people had already left.

However, Xiao Ma had already guessed who it was.

It's just those few people.

Little Horse's feet hadn't regained feeling, so he couldn't get ashore.

Fortunately, someone happened to be passing by, and Xiao Ma asked them for help.

The little horse was rescued.

But Xiao Ma also realized why he couldn't feel his feet anymore.

His feet were dangling at an odd angle.

His leg was broken. It was broken at the knee.

Little Horse belatedly felt the sharp pain in its foot.

The little horse fainted from the pain.
