Several girls nearby looked at Mu Sijiao with strange eyes.
It turns out that being a maid is so miserable!
"Some time ago, I went to the city to find my aunt, and I happened to see a young lady and a maid coming to my aunt's shop to buy something. The maid seemed to have said something wrong, and the young lady asked her to slap her face. Her face was swollen."
"How terrible! If you say something wrong, you will be beaten like this. If you make other mistakes, wouldn't it be..."
Mu Sijiao listened to the comments next to her and felt that she couldn't bear to lose face.
"No. The maid was beaten because she did something wrong. If she had done nothing wrong, how could she be beaten? The Li family is an official and they are the most reasonable. They never beat or scold the maid casually."
"Oh." Mu Siyu said calmly, "Then I wish you will rise higher and climb into the bed of Master Li as soon as possible."
"You!! I'll tear your mouth apart." Mu Sijiao's thoughts were revealed, and she angrily threw herself at Mu Siyu.
Mu Siyu hid aside, retreated into her yard, and stuck out her tongue at Mu Sijiao: "Isn't this what you are thinking about? Isn't that why you haven't married in these years? Why are you pretending to be so stupid?
?”
Several girls lowered their heads and smiled sullenly.
Originally they were quite envious of Mu Sijiao, but when they heard that the 'maid' was so miserable, that envy disappeared.
As Mu Siyu said, even if they are poor all their lives, they are still good family members and do not have to work for others. Thinking of this, it is happier to be simple like them.
"Siyu, I heard from my mother that your cooking skills are very good. My brother is going to get married soon and will treat the villagers to a wedding banquet. Can you help us? Don't worry, our family won't let you go to waste.
To help.”
"Brother Zhuzi is getting married? That's great! I will definitely help when the time comes. Needless to say, we grew up together, so this little effort is nothing."
Originally, these girls all revolved around Mu Sijiao. Now that they see that Mu Siyu is really not as sarcastic as before, and she is so easy to talk to, they suddenly feel a little closer to her.
Mu Sijiao has always been the envy of girls in the village. She doesn't have to do too much work, and she wears beautiful flowers every now and then. Her clothes are also the neatest and cleanest, without even a patch. She tidies up a little.
Suddenly, she was the most beautiful girl in the village. Not only her village, but also the neighboring village had many young men surrounding her, which greatly satisfied her vanity.
The trend has changed today. Mu Sijiao is going to be a maid. The girls in the village were quite envious of her at first. But after Mu Siyu explained it, they felt that Mu Sijiao was weird and she was not the same as them.
When Mu Siyu returned to the courtyard, Mu Sijiao yelled angrily and walked away angrily.
"You are good at irritating people." Lu Xuan said from the window: "When I met your cousin before, I was like a quail and didn't dare to say a word. Now I know how to fight back."
"Who asked her to recruit me?" Mu Siyu continued busy with the work in hand. "I will not offend others unless they offend me. If someone offends me, I will retaliate. If you don't want to be angry, then don't make trouble!
"
Mu Sijiao followed her cousin to the city that day.
Old Mrs. Jiang said everywhere that her granddaughter was going to enjoy the blessings, and she would get monthly silver every month from now on. With such a proud look, those who didn't know thought that Mu Sijiao had married into a wealthy family instead of being a maid.
However, in the eyes of Mrs. Jiang, Mu Sijiao has almost half-stepped into the wealthy life. In her opinion, her granddaughter is so beautiful, is it only a matter of time before she becomes an aunt?
"Ms. Han'er, what are you talking about?"
Mrs. Tong passed by carrying a basket of vegetable seedlings, and the woman coming back from the fields said hello.
"I opened a piece of wasteland and planned to plant some vegetables." Ms. Tong was a little shy and her voice was as thin as a mosquito. If it weren't for the close distance, you wouldn't have been able to hear what she was saying.
"Sangmenxing." Mrs. Jiang walked over from the opposite side.
When Mrs. Tong saw Mr. Jiang, her face turned pale.
When the woman who greeted her saw this, she quickly said to Mrs. Tong: "I saw your daughter going to your house just now. Go and have a look!"
Jiang originally wanted to go forward and cause trouble for Tong, but after hearing what the woman said, she gritted her teeth and looked at Tong trotting away fiercely.
Speaking of Mu Siyu in the past, she was the dog around Jiang, who would do whatever she was asked to do. But things are different now. The bitch didn’t know what stimulation she received, and she actually turned into a mad dog and bit them back.
"Huh! I'm waiting for you to cry one day."
When her eldest grandson passed the exam and became a high official, he would put them all in jail.
Mrs. Tong returned home, put the vegetable basket aside and patted her chest.
"Mom, what's wrong?" Mu Zhenghan came back carrying firewood.
Tong quickly followed up: "It's nothing."
"Sister asked us to go to her house for dinner." Mu Zhenghan said.
"Should we not go? We go to your sister's house every now and then to eat and drink. Even if your brother-in-law doesn't say anything, we can't keep causing trouble to them." Ms. Tong hesitated.
"It seems like sister has something to say." Mu Zhenghan moved firewood into the kitchen.
I came out of the kitchen and wiped my sweat.
Lu Yi came to invite him personally, but Tong and Mu Zhenghan went anyway.
When he saw the wild goat screaming miserably in the yard, Mu Zhenghan's admiration for Lu Yi became even more passionate.
At the dinner table, Mu Siyu mentioned that she and Lu Yi would go to the city early tomorrow morning and asked Tong and Mu Zhenghan to take care of the house.
Mrs. Tong agreed wholeheartedly, her eyes exuding a light she had never seen before.
The sense of satisfaction of being able to help her daughter without becoming a burden to her is probably what she has been missing during this time.
Lu Xuan shrugged.
How does he need others to take care of things at home? But...
He didn't say anything either.
Although Tong is cowardly, he is not annoying. This kid Mu Zhenghan has suffered a lot at a young age, which makes him feel like he is in the same boat, and his attitude toward him is much better than Mu Siyu.
The next morning, before dawn, Lu Yi picked up the wild goat and Mu Siyu picked up her treasure box and walked towards the town.
Lu Yi walked behind, always paying attention to what was going on in front.
The last time she entered the city, Mu Siyu was tired and stopped after walking only a few steps. Today, she didn't complain about being tired, and she walked quite steadily.
Everyone is usually busy with their own business, but they don't notice that she has lost a lot of weight. Look at the clothes she wears, they are actually baggy.
At dawn, there are more and more pedestrians on the road.
"I'm so tired." Mu Siyu found a place to stop. "You're carrying two hundred kilograms of stuff without even taking a breath. It's so annoying."
Lu Yi took her backpack and said calmly: "You will get used to it after walking a few times."
"How far is it?"
"Well..." Before Lu Yi could speak, voices came from behind.
"Brother Ziyi!" a man called him. "What a coincidence! We met here."
