It was after the incident at that banquet that Jinyan gradually became willing to leave her yard. It was also at this time that she saw Jinyan and knew what she looked like.
In the past ten years, not only her, but everyone in the house has been missing Jinyan's past.
Ever since she had the suspicion, half of Mrs. Hou thought that Jin Yan might be her daughter.
Madam Hou was eager to know about her past.
That's why he was so rude to Xiaochun.
He also knew that the maids around Jinyan were reliable, so he dared to ask.
Xiaochun was also a little confused. She didn't know why Mrs. Hou suddenly asked these questions. She thought that maybe the young lady was really nice. The old lady liked the young lady. Madam Hou probably also liked the young lady. As an aunt, she was also Mrs. Hou's aunt in Zhenbei.
.
If you like the lady, it is also a good thing for the lady.
Madam is not trustworthy at all.
In the future, if a young lady talks about getting married and is bullied at her husband's house, there will always be someone to help her.
Xiaochun also became enthusiastic.
Looking at Madam Hou, she began to ask: "Mrs. Hou, do you want to know when did the young lady get here?"
After all, it was more than ten years ago.
Too many things.
Xiaochun never thought that Mrs. Hou would want to know everything.
"Let's talk about it from childhood?" Mrs. Hou forced herself to calm down.
Xiaochun thought for a while: "Then I'll start talking when I get to the lady."
Mrs. Hou nodded.
Xiaochun recalled: "When the slave came to the young lady, the young lady was almost four years old. The young lady was seriously ill at that time. The four slaves were with the young lady at that time. The doctor said that the treatment must be in time, otherwise
She is so feverish that she is confused. The servants dare not be careless and carefully take care of the young lady."
"The young lady has been coughing for two months and is as thin as a two-year-old child. However, the young lady has a good temper and treats the slaves well."
"After the young lady recovered from her illness, the madam was very strict with the young lady. She said that she wanted to train the young lady and let her learn to work hard. The food in Zhangzhu Pavilion was very strict. Three meals a day.
The meals are mostly clear soup with little water, and there are very few snacks. Sometimes if the lady wants to eat sweets or snacks, she will be beaten and scolded by the madam."
Mrs. Hou felt really distressed and panicked when she heard this.
A little child seemed to appear in front of his eyes. For such a small child, eating sweets and snacks is a normal thing, but he was beaten and scolded when he wanted to eat.
Ordinary families would not treat their children so harshly.
When Jinyan was at the old lady's place, he seemed to like eating snacks, but he was very restrained. After eating a few, he stopped eating.
Neither Jin Yu nor the concubine ladies of the Hou Mansion were willing to touch these snacks when they went out.
Jinyan is so cautious.
Xiaochun felt that something was wrong with Mrs. Hou's expression, and she was still wondering whether to say anything.
Madam Hou motioned for her to continue.
Xiaochun continued: "Miss has been raised thin since she was a child, but the ones given to her by Zhangzhu Pavilion have never been large. If the slaves get delicious food outside, they will give it to the lady, and the lady will be very happy.
.I don’t know what the ladies in the Gaomen Courtyard are like. I just feel that today, the young ladies are worse than the ladies born in the household, or to put it bluntly, worse than the servants.”
Saying this, Xiaochun is really worried.
The young lady at the back is older.
"When the young lady got older, the master wanted to ask his wife to teach the young lady music, chess, calligraphy and painting. The madam refused, and with a stern face, she said that if the young lady did not reject the master, he would never see her again. The young lady put away her curiosity and refused.
Come on, sir."
"The madam did not let the young lady learn piano and chess at the academy, but asked the aunts to teach her how to be a virtuoso. When she was in the madam's yard, she did maid's work, serving dishes, serving the madam's meals, and cleaning the madam's clothes in the winter.
."
"The madam said this was filial piety, but the young lady did not dare to refute, otherwise she would be punished by kneeling down and being whipped with a cane."
"Several slaves think that if the young lady learns to be a popular girl, she doesn't go to the madam's place early in the morning and only stops after dark."
"Madam sometimes feels bad, and she doesn't care about the cold weather in winter, so she asks her to kneel in the yard." Xiaochun said, becoming increasingly unable to continue.
Her eyes were a little red: "Mrs. Hou, the lady treats the young lady badly, but our young lady is very good. She herself is in dire straits, but she tries her best to let us live a good life."
"You are the young lady's aunt, and I ask you to take care of some young ladies from time to time, and at least give me a better person when you get married in the future."
"The young lady has lived a hard life for more than ten years. I hope that the young lady can live a better life in the future."
Mrs. Hou kept nodding.
Then Jinpa covered his eyes and went out.
Xiaochun didn't know why Mrs. Hou asked these questions.
It would be a good thing if Miss Zuo can have one more person to care about.
Xiaochun returned to Gu Jinyan and tucked her in. During this period, the young lady was taken care of by the old lady. The master also specially hired a cook to nurse the young lady back to health. After a long time, she was no longer so timid, and she was fucked by the madam again.
Poison, this pale look makes Xiaochun feel uncomfortable.
No wonder Madam Hou asked so many questions.
Mrs. Hou is a kind person.
He must feel sorry for the young lady. The young lady should have more people who care about her like this.
Life will be smoother in the future.
Mrs. Hou held back her tears and walked all the way back to the house before bursting into tears.
She didn't dare to cry when she was outside just now. It wasn't until now that she felt a little better.
She felt sorry for Jin Yan from the past.
I also blame myself for why I didn't ask and see clearly back then.
If she had never let go of her doubts, wouldn't this be the case?
I won't let Jin Yan suffer so much.
Mrs. Hou thought about this, and it took a long time for her to feel better.
She can't give up on her own, she must be careful and do everything well.
besides.
Now it's just an introduction to suspicion.
What if I make a mistake?
Therefore, Jin Yan must not let Jin Yan know about this matter. If she is wrong, it will cause further harm to Jin Yan. Regardless of whether Jin Yan is her own child or not, she cannot hurt Jin Yan again.
Mrs. Hou thought of that thin and frail figure.
Even if she made a mistake, she thought she would treat Jin Yan well.
Madam Hou made up her mind and became more clear in her heart.
When Hou Zhenbei came in, he saw Mrs. Hou's moist eyes and was furious: "What did Jin Yu do again? She is getting more and more outrageous now!"
Although Jin Yan's matter sounds like it has nothing to do with her, Jin Yu's handwriting is indispensable in it.
