Chapter 41: Fifth Madam Comes to Inquire
The woman kept her head down and didn't notice the eldest lady's abnormality.
Xue Rouer panicked and said, "Mom, what's wrong with you?"
The eldest lady wiped her tears and said, "This woman looks familiar. I wonder if she is related to Lin Yuyan?"
The woman suddenly raised her head and said, "Lin Yuyan is the daughter of this slave. Does the lady know that?"
The eldest lady said: "Lin Yuyan is my girl. Later, she married Mr. Lin to fill a house. It seems that she encountered a difficult childbirth and died."
The mother-in-law said with some sadness: "I didn't expect Yuyan to serve the eldest lady. That is her blessing. This child actually belongs to Yuyan and Master Lin. It is a pity that the young lady was born as a slave."
Xue Rouer finally understood that her relationship was with an acquaintance, and she asked: "Mom, since she is your personal girl, why did you marry an official?"
The eldest lady put away her sadness and said: "Yuyan was actually sent by Mr. Lin's father to be your father's wife, but she had long been friends with Mr. Lin, so she was unwilling and willing to be a girl by my side.
Later, I saw that this girl was an upright person who dared to love and hate. I was afraid that she would get into trouble if she stayed in this house for a long time, so I took her in as my adopted sister. Then I successfully married into the Lin Mansion. It was a pity. If I had known this, it would have been better not to have done it.
Married."
The mother-in-law said: "Madam, please don't blame yourself. It's Yu Yan's poor fortune. No wonder Madam. In that case, I have to thank Madam for her beauty as an adult, which has left some blood in the Lin family."
The eldest lady waved to Qiao'er, and Qiao'er walked over and bowed obediently, saying, "See the eldest lady."
"Good boy, this child looks a lot like Mr. Lin. At least he has a heir." The eldest lady sighed.
Xue Rou'er said: "Mother, what my daughter bought is a slave, not for you to come and recognize her."
The first sentence made the eldest lady's face heat up, and she immediately said: "You girl, you have a really poisonous mouth. That's all. Since you bought it, you can arrange it."
Xue Rouer nodded and said: "Please tell me your name!"
The woman first said: "My slave Tan Hong."
The other two girls said respectively: "My slave is Hong Yan, my slave is Green Liu."
The little widow lowered her head and said, "Slave Du Qinghe."
Xue Rouer asked Du Qinghe: "Where is your husband's family?"
Du Qinghe bit his lip and said, "This slave is the concubine of Mr. Li. After Mr. Li passed away, the big house couldn't accommodate her, so she was sold to Yapo."
Xue Rouer continued to ask: "Have you ever given birth?"
Du Qinghe shook his head and said: "I haven't, actually...actually, this slave is still a virgin. Mr. Li married the slave just to wash himself off, but he never thought that he would leave before the wedding was over."
Xue Rouer smiled and said: "It's a good death to avoid wasting a good girl in vain. Then where is your natal family from? Do you want to go back or stay?"
Du Qinghe's eyes flashed with panic: "I'm willing to stay here and work as a cow and horse, but I'm afraid I'll be sold by my gambling father again if I go back."
Xue Rou'er nodded and said: "Mother Tan will be the steward of this courtyard from now on, and you all must obey her. You must remember that your master is the eldest lady, the head mistress of the Xue Mansion, do you understand?"
"I will obey my teachings." Several women knelt in a row.
Xue Rou'er looked at Qiao'er, she looked very lovable, and said, "Qiao'er, come with me, she just happens to be studying with me."
Tan Hong was immediately overjoyed, and Qiaoer also knelt down happily.
Xue Rou'er continued: "We don't want to be pretentious like other masters. As long as you do your job well and don't betray the master for glory, then your benefits will be indispensable. If I find out that any of them has an affair... Huh, Yihongyuan won't do it.
Send her directly to Goulan Courtyard to be a low-class prostitute."
The three young women were trembling all over. It is said that the women in Goulan Courtyard did not wear clothes for a whole day. When one man left, another man would come and there was no time for her to dress. However, these women did not live long and died in three to five years.
.If he was sold there, he might as well just die.
"Yu Nu, please take them to live in the backyard." Xue Rouer said.
Yunu responded and led the people down.
But at this time, he was standing in the courtyard waiting for Ling Muran to walk in and said: "My nephew wants to say hello to my eldest aunt."
The eldest lady nodded and said: "My nephew is interested, please sit down."
Xue Rou'er looked at Ling Muran. He was only eighteen. At such a young age, it was said that he was already the shopkeeper of several shops. How did he do it?
When Ling Muran saw Xue Rou'er looking at him, he felt happy and thought to himself: "This Xue Rou'er is really playing hard to get, that's all. I won't expose you. Seeing that you look good, I will obey your wishes."
"Young sister Rou, do you have any questions?" Ling Muran said with a smile.
Xue Rou'er smiled faintly: "Brother Ling is so handsome. He is already comparable to his father at such a young age. Rou'er is very impressed."
Ling Muran's heart was so beautiful that she immediately forgot about it: "You're so proud of me, Roumei. I will carry a big sedan chair to marry you when you get hairpins."
Xue Rou'er sneered in her heart: "Huh, if you can produce two sedans in a year, that's your ability. I'm very interested in your shop. Don't forget, you haven't paid back what you owe me."
But on her face, she said shyly: "Then Rou'er will wait and see."
"Brother Ling, you are here." Xue Qing'er came to the door deliberately.
Ling Muran's smile was a little unnatural now. Didn't it mean that Xue Qing'er was not in the house today?
"Sister Qing'er." He smiled perfunctorily.
Xue Qing'er stepped forward and pulled Ling Muran's sleeve out: "Ling Muran, come quickly, daddy is looking for you."
When Ling Muran heard that it was Xue Li who was looking for him, he naturally did not dare to neglect him. He smiled apologetically and followed Xue Qing'er out.
The eldest lady hummed: "What a shameful thing it is to pull and pull."
Xue Rou'er said nonchalantly: "Mom, I don't even care, why are you angry? He Ling Muran is so powerful now, sooner or later I will make him cry."
The eldest lady sighed: "Since you broke off the marriage if you don't like it, why do you need to put on a show? What should I do if it delays your marriage in the future?"
Xue Rou'er said: "Mom, don't worry, Rou'er has her own plan."
The eldest lady stopped talking after hearing this. Now her daughter is much better than her.
Xue Rou'er thought for a moment and said, "Mom, it's almost time to implement our plan."
The eldest lady asked: "What's the plan?"
Xue Rou'er smiled and said: "Of course it's a plan to regain dad's heart."
The eldest lady's face turned red and she said, "Your father likes plump women. He doesn't like my mother's thin body."
Xue Rouer smiled and said: "Don't worry, my daughter is here. We..." She babbled a lot.
The eldest lady asked: "Is it really possible?"
Xue Rou'er patted her chest and said, "Of course it's possible. Mother, just do what your daughter says."
The eldest lady gritted her teeth and said, "Okay, mother, I will listen to you."
