"Do you know? The maid who serves the twelfth lady was chosen by Master Six to be his aunt. She is so lucky that the crow flew on the branch and became a phoenix." An embroiderer cried. A group of daughters-in-law got the news and had a heated discussion there.
"Sixth Master is a talented person, and Sixth Grandma is also a famous philanthropist. This maid has a good life. She will wear gold and silver for the rest of her life, and she will have no worries about food and clothing." Another embroiderer sighed.
"Peach Blossom, Aunt Hu asked you to be her maid. What's going on?" Qiao Xiu Niang walked in and looked at Wen Wan with an ugly face.
Wen Wan is inexplicable.
"You don't know?" Qiao Xiu Niang looked at Wen Wan and asked with some disbelief. Wen Wan nodded blankly, then shook his head.
"Let's go, clean up, and follow me to Aunt Hu's place." A mother came and ordered condescendingly. Wen Wan hid behind Qiao Xiu Niang in fear. I can't even pull it.
"You don't want to go to Aunt Hu's place." Qiao Xiu Niang was stunned. Wen Wan nodded.
"You said you don't want to be Aunt Hu's maid?" The mother who came asked Wen Wan in disbelief. Wen Wan immediately made it clear to Qiao Xiu Niang that she did not want to leave the embroidery room.
Qiao Xiu Niang was very happy after hearing this. There were many people who wanted to serve her master. Wen Wan said she wouldn't go, and she was nominally Qiao Xiu Niang's apprentice. Even if Hu Bo was her aunt now, she couldn't force him to take her away. Wen Wan didn't want to go, so she didn't need to go. She said a few words to the mother, who looked at Wen Wan doubtfully.
Wen Wan looked at her mother¡¯s surprised look and nodded, indicating that she didn¡¯t want to go. I just want to learn embroidery and become an embroidery girl in the future. The maids in the mansion were all vying to get close to their master, and there was no shortage of such a maid. If Wen Wan disagrees, of course there will be no problem. There are plenty of candidates.
When I returned to my residence, I found that Shanshan¡¯s bed was empty, which was very strange.
"Why don't you work as a second-class maid next to Amber?" Lianzi asked strangely. Wen Wan looked at her strangely, shook her head, and made a few movements to express that she liked embroidery very much and did not want to leave the embroidery room.
"Seeing that you are timid and timid, you are actually smart. How can it be so easy to be an aunt? Moreover, normally, Amber is just a girl with a common room at most. She can only become an aunt after giving birth to a son. This will happen suddenly I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse to be promoted to aunt. You're right not to join in. Shanshan is the one who thinks that she can rise to the top. How can those ladies and young ladies be so easy to get along with? Yes. Grandma Six said it was charity, but she is not easy to bully. I hope Amber understands!" Lianzi sighed.
Wenwan drew a few strokes and asked strangely why she took a fancy to him. Didn't Amber despise her? Why would he ask her to come over and be her maid? I didn't go, so I changed to Shanshan.
"You think that when you are an aunt, you have to serve whoever you want. How can such a good thing happen? She chose you because you have no foundation. You seem to be obedient, gentle and gentle. If she trains you well, you will not be hers in the future. Confidant, loyal to her. As for Shanshan, she definitely didn't want it. She probably chose someone else in our house to take your place because you didn't want to go." Lianzi looked at Wen Wan and was very patient. This is his analysis.
Wenwan asked, why isn¡¯t my aunt the master?
"Auntie is a master to us, and to the madam, grandma, young master and young lady in the mansion, she is also half a slave. As for the wives, they are also slaves, and some of them are not as dignified as the capable maids around the madam." Wen Wan Half-knowledge, but trying hard to absorb this knowledge.
Lianzi discovered that Wen Wan is a very eager to learn, and she usually asks for advice humbly when it comes to things she doesn¡¯t understand. She nodded secretly in her heart. This peach blossom looked timid and cowardly, but she was actually a smart child. Then she thought about how she could make Qiao Xiu Niang stand up for her if she wasn't smart. But thinking about it, it is not easy to be willing to hide one's intelligence in the mansion, starting from the lowest level. I felt more pity in my heart. Tell her as much as you know, let her know more, and you will have more insurance in the future.
Wen Wan was surprised, she didn¡¯t expect that being an aunt is not so easy. The most surprising thing is that Lianzi looks silent, but is the most transparent person inside. After that, he became a lot kinder to Wen Wan, and sometimes he would even say a few words. The relationship between the two gradually improved.
Because of this, and because Wen Wan took the monthly payment, everyone was filial to Qiao Xiu Niang. And usually, I also help Qiao Xiu Niang make some branding, do some private work, and earn some extra money. Qiao Xiu Niang's attitude towards her has improved a lot, and she even scolds her less. The people in the embroidery room were secretly amazed.
"That child is definitely not a simple one." Mrs. He's wife looked as gentle as before, and she was still very respectful to Qiao Xiu Niang, which was strange. Mrs. He's wife always felt something was wrong.Yes, but I can't tell what's wrong. It was hard to say this to others, so I kept it in my heart.
As soon as Wenwan returned to the room, she saw Lianzi lying on the bed like a turtle. My forehead was sweating all the time, and my face was twisted in pain. Wen Wan was frightened and rushed up to ask what happened. When I walked in, I saw that my butt was swollen.
"Master Sun fell down from the rockery and broke his arm. All the maids and ladies who were serving him suffered. The two personal maids and the maid who was serving him were beaten to death. Fortunately, I am the rough maid. It wasn't me who was on duty by Master Sun's side that day, and my cousin went to beg for help, and I was able to save my life. Don't worry, my mother-in-law took it for granted. For my cousin's sake, I didn't use much force, it only took a few days to heal." Lianzi was lucky. Wen Wan lowered her head and shuddered. Take good care of the lotus seeds.
"Taohua, thank you." Lianzi thanked her sincerely.
"No need." He wrote gently. The two of them were bored while sleeping, so Wen Wan asked about the situation in the house. Lianzi knew that Wenwan had no foundation in the house, and it was understandable to want to know something. Whatever the gentle strokes are, she will tell you when she knows. Of course, I can¡¯t understand or care about it. The one Wenwan pays most attention to is naturally the Taira family. But because I couldn't go out of my way, it wasn't too obvious, but I also learned some small news.
A few days later, something happened in the embroidery room. Wen Wan entered the embroidery room and was puzzled when she saw the sad people in the embroidery room. After asking, I found out that the daughter of an embroiderer named Ping was beaten to death by Miss Ten because she bumped into her.
"Wherever Biyu collided with Miss Ten, she clearly had a grudge about what happened last time. The last time she entered the palace, Concubine De praised Miss Ninth's beautiful clothes. Miss Ten hated that she would not give her such good clothes, and deliberately Looking for trouble." Mrs. He shook her head and sighed. Everyone else also lowered their heads, which meant that it was basically true.
"You beat someone to death when you say you beat them to death? Yabo beat people to death, after all, they became runaway slaves. This, beating people to death just for a piece of clothing, isn't it too scary?" Wen Wan opened her eyes wide.
Wen Wan was affected by this incident. She was worried about what would happen next.
"What's wrong with you, why are you so depressed when you come back?" Lianzi asked Wenwan strangely, and Wenwan simply expressed the matter.
"What can I do? As a slave, you have no rights. The master wants you to die. It's just a matter of words. But as long as you do your job well, you should be fine." Lianzi looked at Wen Wan and felt depressed. Comforting.
"Slave, do you have no human rights? Life and death are only between those people's thoughts?" Although Wen Wan knew it, she still couldn't get over the hurdle in her heart, so she was gesticulating.
"Slaves are slaves. People like us have been slaves for generations, and our descendants will continue to be slaves in the prince's mansion. Five generations of our family have been servants in the prince's mansion, and we don't know when it will end. Moreover, within three generations, we have to work as servants in the prince's mansion. Close relatives who have slaves are not allowed to participate in the imperial examination. Even if it is concealed, once it is known, the qualification will be deleted. Even if it is retained, everyone will look down on it.
??Here in Anle Mansion, the life of a slave is as worthless as an ant. In this inner house, a careless person with some power could kill her. If she regains her identity, not to mention anything else, just the fact that she is the emperor's niece can ensure that she has no worries about food and clothing, and a safe life. Even those who want her life must weigh their own weight.
If you want to harm her, if you are not careful, you will cause trouble to the family. After all, the blood of the current emperor remains in Wen Wan's body, which can be regarded as the emperor's direct bloodline. Not only the royal family, but also the Su family. In the previous dynasty, the Su family was a famous family in Qiantang River. It has a history of more than 400 years and is one of the most prestigious scholarly families in the court. The younger generation are also rich in talents. In every generation, one or two people will go into officialdom, and those who do so are all talented people.
But the strange thing is that the Su family has a family rule that as long as you want to be an official, you must sever ties with the family. The family will not provide any help, and you must rely on yourself for everything.
Not to mention my father¡¯s family, the family that contributed to the founding of the country. She was also a scholar before, but she found her ancestor as a strange target and followed Taizu to conquer the country. Received a hereditary title.
Therefore, regardless of whether Wen Wan comes from her father's family, mother's family, or maternal family, to the world, Wen Wan is a real noble lady. After Wen Wan understood, she curled her lips, saying that any noble had fallen to the point where any ant could crush her to death. Everything is fake.
That Anshi must have made some arrangements. If he wants to regain his identity, seeking his father's clan is seeking death. You can only find the mother clan, and you must get the protection of the mother clan, otherwise, it is all in vain. But no matter how difficult it is, we must do it. Don't live such a life of fear.
Wenwan was in a daze facing the moonlight reflected outside. It is difficult for a maid and a woman in a deep house to go out. Even if you go out, people are watching you. In this case, how should we find the Zongren Mansion? Could it be that I really have to be a maid for the rest of my life? Just kidding, in less than two months, she has already deeply understood how different the levels are here and how important identity is.
It¡¯s just that when will this opportunity come, I am so worried every day.
Fortunately, Lianzi's injury healed quickly. After she recovered, her cousin gave her a new job and transferred her to Master Ting in the mansion. He is said to be the third master's eldest son.
I don¡¯t care about these gentlenesses. Because they come in and out of their house too frequently, the mother in charge has not arranged for anyone to come in for the time being. Just two people living there. Ever since Wen Wan took good care of Lian Zi while she was recovering from her injuries, Lian Zi has become more and more kind to Wen Wan. Every time she comes back, she always brings her some good things to eat. Gentle and polite, enjoying it happily. The relationship between the two is getting better and better.
