Second Sister Nongmen has space

Chapter 421 Top Grade Dowry
As the carriage staggered forward on the grassland, Nanny Xu closed her eyes and rested her mind.

Beside her, two palace servants covered their chests with their hands, frowning tightly, as if they were in pain and about to vomit.

The other two servant girls were also pale.

Although it had been two months since they set off from the capital, it was not difficult to stop and stop on the road.

But since going to Suijin Town and then to the Grassland Tribe, it's like going from heaven to hell.

I am not used to eating and living, and now the carriage is driving on the grassland, and it is even more uncomfortable.

Sitting on the left side of Nanny Xu, the servant girl wrapped in a concubine-colored cloak frowned and said, "Mama, I heard that Mrs. Wu Ya lives far away, and it will take half a month for us to go there. to drop."

They have only sat for an hour, and their buttocks are already hurting from sitting.

Another servant girl also interjected: "Mama, why don't you send some more cushions, so that we can be more comfortable."

Nanny Xu opened her eyes, looked at the two of them coldly, until their scalps were numb, and said calmly: "You are going to be slaves, and you can't bear this kind of hardship, so go ride a horse, or else you can go on a horse ride." Live in the desert with your parents."

The faces of the four maidservants changed. They were not ordinary picking girls, but the offenders and officials who had been cleared out by the new emperor.

All the men in the family have been assigned as frontier guards, and these unmarried girls are naturally taken as official slaves, and now they are sent to the Di clan.

Although this is a barren land, at least it is to serve the tribal leader, which is much better than being a military household for a lifetime.

If you don't come to the grassland, you will also enter the Jiaofang Division as an official concubine if you stay in the capital.

It's just that they used to be delicate daughters of thousands of gold, and it was already the limit to be able to support the grassland, so how could they ride horses.

It was still a servant girl who had been silent all this time and said, "Mommy, calm down, the servant girls know they made a mistake.

It's just that my body was not honed before, and when I first encountered this situation, I was afraid that the tribe would be unbearable and unable to serve my wife. "

Listening to her sincerity, Mother Xu also knew that these noble ladies in the past really couldn't bear the long-distance fatigue, so she said in a cold voice: "Hold it now, wait until the carriages and horses stop to rest, and then mention it to the young lady!"

Even though she was already on a slow journey, she still wanted the carriage to go more slowly, otherwise these palace maids who couldn't ride horses would really die.

young lady!
The four of them exchanged glances, and they were all refreshed.

They were sent to the grassland tribes as dowries, but none of these "dowries" had ever met their masters and brides, so they might not be easy to get along with.

Half a day later, the team stopped to eat and rest. When Song Liyun found Madam Xu, several women were competing with beef jerky.

After eating dry biscuits, in order for them to adapt to the life of the Di people as soon as possible, Madam Xu asked them to eat dry beef and drink milk tea like everyone else.

The four noble ladies had to hold the hard and dry beef with their hands, trying to tear off a little bit before stuffing it into their mouths, so as not to bite with their teeth.

Beside them, there were eight rough envoy girls who were lighting a fire with cow dung. Although they were not skilled in their movements, they could barely see the light of the fire, but there were ashes everywhere.

"Grandma has worked hard!"

Song Liyun walked into the tent and saw this scene, and couldn't help laughing.

Nanny Xu put down the beef jerky that had gnawed teeth marks, and said a little embarrassingly: "Young Madam made me laugh, this old slave is not used to it at first, so I have to suffer a little bit."

"You guys came here to meet the young lady!"

The other maidservants had already put down their hands to eat, and came over to salute one after another.

Someone boldly looked up at the newlywed, and saw that Song Liyun had fair skin and a well-proportioned figure. Although she didn't wear makeup or gold and silver jewelry, her bright eyes and a string of bright red agate stones on her forehead made her very imposing.

"Young Madam, Ann!"

Some bowed their heads in salute, while others looked up. Song Liyun naturally took in the expressions of these people.

After saluting, Song Liyun said to Madam Xu: "Mama, you don't have to work so hard, just order those knights outside to come in and do things like lighting a fire and making tea."

As soon as she finished speaking, all the women present changed their faces.

The faces of the noble ladies turned purple, and they turned their heads as if they had been insulted.

But no one spoke provocatively.

They are all daughters-in-law carefully raised by their families, and they are all smart and clever.

Knowing that she is a sinful woman, and now she is a palace servant, coupled with Madam Xu's reminder, no matter how angry she is at this time, she will hold it back and don't act like a bird.

Nanny Xu waved her hands again and again: "It's not allowed, servants and others are meant to serve Madam, and they can't have contact with men."

Although the Wu Dynasty could not forbid men and women to communicate, the high-ranking families did not allow their female relatives to go out easily.

Mother Xu still had something to hold back in her heart, but didn't say it.

The dirty-looking army soldiers wrapped in fur robes outside were even more untouchable untouchables in the eyes of these women.

Song Liyun squinted her eyes, this is embarrassing, these women are gifts from An Guogong to his wife, they can't have contact with men, she can't make decisions for his wife.

It's just that these women don't know how to fill their stomachs on the road, and they will starve to death after a few days.

Elder Shan didn't bring a maid with him when he came to welcome the bride, so except for Song Liyun and Lady Yun who were women, all the men in the team were men.

I can't ask Mrs. Yun to serve them by myself.

After thinking about it, Song Liyun sat on the felt blanket, pulled out a knife from her waist, and cut the beef jerky that Nanny Xu had bitten into small pieces and poured it into the milk tea in front of her.

"Nurse Xu, the beef is so dry that it's sliced ​​into thin slices, so it's softer when soaked in milk tea."

In the tent, several women looked at each other in blank dismay: You don't use chopsticks to eat, do you use a knife?

Finally, Song Liyun let the women know how to eat through the demonstration.

A palace maid came over, knelt down beside Song Liyun, covered her nose with her hands and said, "Young madam, this servant is from the Wu Dynasty, so I don't care if I eat these stinky things.

Can those people make some stew pancakes please?Even simple pasta and rice porridge with some side dishes will do. I'm not picky about food. "

Song Liyun didn't answer, just looked at her with a smile: "Can you cook?"

The woman shook her head: "The servant girl was taught by her family to be a housekeeper since she was a child, and she doesn't know how to cook food."

She said it a little proudly.

Not many women in the Wu Dynasty could read and write, and the rich family taught the girls to learn the account book, and it was only for the purpose of marrying in the future, and being able to be a housekeeper and host the middle class.

Jingzhong sent a slave who can't cook but can read, interesting!
Song Liyun simply called all her "dowry" over to ask, to see if there was anything strange.

Sure enough, this question turned out to be wrong.

She murmured in her heart that Duke An really had ulterior motives.

The four personal servants are all well-educated ladies.

The eight maids know how to cook with needles and threads, and some of them know how to do medicine.

The eight wives also know how to be female workers and female reds, and the dozen or so servants are also skilled in carpentry, rattan, weaving, gold and silverware, and they are all skilled craftsmen.

It's just that none of these people know martial arts, and none of them know how to forge weapons. Obviously, they were screened when they were sent over.

With these people, the quality of life will be improved several grades.

Technical talents are popular everywhere.

An Guogong wants to make the life of the Wuda tribe better, and he can't be too powerful, and he can't be too public in the court, so he uses his marriage as a cover.

good!good!
A smile gradually climbed onto Song Liyun's face.

Originally, she wanted to listen to Elder Shan's advice, but she suddenly lost all thought of letting these people walk slowly behind.

Talent is more important than anything else, if you can accommodate, you must accommodate.

Song Liyun called Abu immediately: "Abu, from now on, your cavalry will be responsible for taking care of Madam Xu and the others."

Abu was confused.
