The peasant girl is not strong

Chapter 7 Entering the Tang Mansion

Chapter 7 Entering the Tang Mansion
Acer's rebuttal made Lai very angry, and his son, who has always been filial, began to be disobedient.

"Acer, what are you talking about? Ah! It's not filial to grow up! My God..."

Lai was pretending to cry while talking.

"Mother, don't cry, eldest brother has long been heartless." The three girls were fanning the flames.

Acer's hard face was dripping with more sweat in the firewood, speechless.

……

When the carriage left the house, Mrs. Li cried all the time in the carriage. The old woman in the carriage watched silently. She didn’t have much sympathy for crying like this today. Look at the scenery outside.

The car left the village and arrived in the town soon after. The old woman asked the driver to stop, and asked the driver to buy six hot meat buns from the shop on the street outside.

The driver kept two for himself, and handed the rest to the old woman.

The old woman gave two steamed buns and said to Mrs Li, "Is there any food for you when I come to your house? Fortunately, there is a reward from the eldest grandmother when I come out, otherwise we will all be hungry."

"Is this for me?" Mrs. Li didn't dare to take it. She had never eaten such a big bun since she got married. Before she got married, she made needles and thread for some money, and would buy some buns to try.

Thinking of her poor five children again, what kind of life will she live after she leaves?I couldn't help the tears welling up in my eyes.

"I said, Mrs. Li, if you give it to you, you will pick it up. When you arrive at a rich family's home, you can't be so petty. If you eat it, you will cry. It's bad luck."

The old lady is the one who works by the old lady's side. She has always been a family child. Obviously, she has never endured hardship. After working in a wealthy family for a long time, she has also learned to look down on the poor and behave like a superior.

"Thank you." Mrs. Li didn't pay attention to the expression of the old lady. She lowered her head and took the steamed bun in her hand. She ate it in small bites. She was hungry. She kept working at home, but she didn't have enough food. Breastfeeding a child takes a toll on the body.

However, this pregnancy seems to be a little better than before, and I don't feel the problem of postpartum back pain and headache.

After half an hour, the carriage arrived in front of the high gate of a large blue brick mansion of a wealthy family in the county.

Li, who didn't read much, didn't know the words on the big plaque.

Before getting off the carriage, the old woman said to her:
"This is the Tang Mansion. You are the nanny of the eldest young grandmother. After entering, you should talk a lot and do more things. You should not gossip, talk nonsense, or walk around. The main task is to take care of the young master."

"Yes" Li complied, and the little people were a little afraid, and bowed their heads to listen to the instructions.

"This is the gate of Tang Mansion. We are servants. We shouldn't go in through the gate. The driver brought you here just to let you know what the main gate looks like. We will enter through the side gate in a while."

"Yes"

After the mother-in-law finished explaining, she got off the carriage and walked in front, followed by Mrs. Li, and came to a side door together.

There are guards at the gate and guards at the side door. The guard at the side door is a woman, and the inner courtyard is entered through the side door.

The mother-in-law first took Mrs. Li to find her place. It was the yard of the young master. There were maids in it, and the kid was on duty.

"That room is your room. Your room is outside the little son's room. You can only sleep when the little son sleeps. If the little son is not sleeping, you can't sleep either."

"Yes." Mrs. Li looked at her small room. There were mosquito nets and beds in it. A servant's nurse's small room was much better than her marriage room at home.

They gave birth to so many babies and slept together in a big bed. The little baby and the little baby slept on their feet and the couple couldn't turn.

"Put your things here first, and I'll take you to see the young lady. The young master is there. After seeing the young lady, if the young lady is satisfied with you, or the young master likes you, you can stay, otherwise you must go back. ."

"Yes." Mrs. Li walked with the old lady with her head lowered, not daring to look around for fear of bumping into the nobles.

Silently remember the route in her heart, and you can't rush into the big family. This is a story she has heard a lot in the countryside.

They passed the garden and came to a yard. There was a woman guarding the entrance of the yard. When they saw the woman entering the door with a strange woman, she said flatteringly:

"Mr. Pan, congratulations, you got another beautiful job."

"That's..., that's what Madam and Young Mistress look up to." Madam Pan said proudly.

After Mrs. Pan said these words, she continued to walk in and whispered to Mrs. Li, "This is the Young Mistress's courtyard, Yixin Garden. I should have brought you to see the eldest lady, and then to see the young lady again, but the eldest lady instructed, first. After letting the young mistress and the young master meet, the young master will naturally be able to see the eldest lady when he goes to pay his respects."

"Yes." Mrs. Li didn't know the rules of Tang Mansion, so she took the words of Mrs. Pan in her heart.

"Remember, our eldest young grandma is pregnant, and you can't let the young master pester her. You have to be loyal to the young master and do the errand well."

"Yes"

Madam Pan took Li to the door of a room guarded by a maid, and she said to the maid:

"Have you woken up from a nap?"

"The young master was having a good time, just fell asleep, and the young lady is lying down tired."

"Please go and tell the young grandma, the wet nurse has been invited."

After the report, the maid came out again and let Madam Pan and Mrs. Li go in.

Passing through the beaded curtains, on the open lotus mosquito net bed, there was a young woman with a heart-shaped comb and light makeup lying on the bed. Beside her, a two-year-old boy fell asleep under a thin quilt.

"Young mistress, I brought someone here." Mrs. Pan bowed and saluted.

Li also followed Madam Pan's actions and lowered her head for the first time, not daring to stare at the person on the bed.

With the help of the maid who came in, the young woman gently leaned on the brocade plum blossom pillow, staring at Mrs. Li who came in, her voice was delicate and small, but not majestic:
"Are you healthy and have enough milk?"

Li stooped and didn't dare to get up. She lowered her head and said, "The little woman is well. She has just given birth for a month, and the baby in the family only eats my milk."

From the look on Li's face, the young lady could guess what she said about being healthy. Just when she was about to say something, the two-year-old who had just fallen asleep shrugged her nose, opened her eyes and cried, "Mother, I want to milk."

The young lady beckoned to Mrs. Li and said to her two-year-old son, "Mother's son, my mother has brought you a nanny and let the nanny feed you."

"Nanny?" The two-year-old boy sat up, his short legs crawled over his mother, and was about to go underground, in order to find Mrs. Li.

"Don't come over and hug the young master." Madam Pan commanded.

"Yes." Mrs. Li obediently hugged the two-year-old child.

"Nanny, I want milk."

"This..." Mrs. Li shyly glanced at Mrs. Pan, the young grandmother and the maid next to her.

"Haven't you heard what the young master said? We are all women." Madam Pan reprimanded again.

"Yes." Mrs. Li sat on the small stool on the side, hugging the young master and turning her back.

When the young grandmother saw that her son was eating well, she stopped crying, nodded in satisfaction, and said to Mrs. Li, who turned her back to them, "I will take good care of the young master in the future."
