Help!The icy grandpa has moved my heart

Chapter 9
Sister Yueyuan sent a message last time, and now that Qu Fulan has prepared the medicine for the old lady, she will not do other odd jobs during the period, and stay in the house to learn needlework from Haixia.

Qu Fulan didn't want to learn, she wasn't interested in sewing, but last time sister Yueyuan asked her to learn more sewing in her spare time and stop going out to do odd jobs, she also said that the old lady valued a good sewing girl more.

Old Madam Pei naturally had everything she needed to wear, but some things like wiping her forehead, shoes and socks had to be tailored by her personal servant girl, and it would be more comfortable to sew them herself.

The old lady asked Yueyuan to support Qu Fulan, and Yueyuan also cared about it, and she mentioned everything that should be mentioned.

Qu Fulan also lived up to Yueyuan's high regard, anyway, he did not overwhelm himself with too many skills, so he learned from Haixia.

Although Haixia's personality is out of character, her needlework is not bad. It is common for women in this era to know needlework. After all, many people sew their wedding dresses by themselves.

I was learning needlework here, but there was a sound from the tea room next door.

It was Hai Xing's voice: "The old lady wants some tea, hurry up and take it there, remember to say something nice to the old lady, to make her happy."

Immediately came Haichun's excited voice: "I'm going right away!"

Then there was a movement, the sound of Haichun's footsteps leaving the tea room.

Hai Xing now spares no effort to support her sister.

Haixia could see it all.

"If she works down-to-earth and uses her real ability to gain face in front of the master, I won't say anything. Look at what she has done. For the sake of her sister, except for the work in the tea room all day, I won't say anything. Besides, I don’t do any other work, even the chopping of firewood in the tea room is done by another servant girl, and when the tea is ready, she takes the ready-made tea to sell to the master, it’s so shameless.”

"However, for a job of delivering tea, it is not certain whether you can get close to the master. Unlike Sister Haitang, you deliver medicine to the old lady every day, and you can get close every day. Let me see, who can replace that in the end? The location is not certain yet."

It is true that the tea delivery person may not be able to get close to the master, otherwise what would the first-class maids around the old lady want to do?

At most, the third-class maids would just bring the teapot and put it away, and they were about to come out. Serving tea and pouring water was something only the first-class maids could do.

Haixia didn't know that the old lady asked Yueyuan to bring Qu Fulan more, she only guessed based on what she saw.

Qu Fulan didn't intend to gossip around, after all, the matter has not yet settled, he just said: "Let's do what we have to do. Whether it is good or not, the masters have their own considerations."

Haixia nodded, fully agreeing with Haitang's point of view.

After two days of embroidering, Qu Fulan finally embroidered a purse. Although the needlework looked awkward and the shape was strange, it was her first work and it was very commemorative.

Haixia didn't hit her hard either, and praised her for being able to embroider like this for the first time.

"When I embroidered for the first time, my family couldn't tell what it was."

Qu Fulan said modestly: "It is you who taught well."

Haixia smiled embarrassedly.

Then they talked about the latest developments in the mansion.

"A few maids were released from the second room of the eldest room today, and they were all crying so badly that they were very reluctant."

Qu Fulan was puzzled: "Why are they crying, what are they reluctant to bear?"

Haixia said: "I can't bear to be treated in the house." After she finished speaking, she looked around and whispered when she saw that there was no one left, "You can see that starfish, she will go out to get married when the time comes, And I don't want to part with the good jobs in the mansion, so I let my younger sister come in as a substitute, so that life at home is still easy, which shows how many people don't want to go out when they're due."

After Haixia said so much, Qu Fulan only heard one sentence - how many people don't want to go out after their expiration date.

She was so stabbed that she wanted to vomit blood.

There is a saying that others don't care if you get what you want so hard.

But maybe everyone has to look forward to Shu.

Those maids who don't want to go out may not be happy if they really sign the death contract.

Who doesn't know that a maid who has a death contract will not be free for life, and the marriage is entirely up to the owner. If you marry a chicken, you will marry a dog.

There are only two final fates of a maidservant under a dead contract, one is to be regarded as a concubine by the master, and the other is to be assigned to a servant at home.

I can't think about it anymore, I will suffocate if I think about it any more.

Qu Fulan became more and more determined to get promoted quickly to accumulate merits, and achieve the goal of getting the contract of sale as soon as possible.

But it was said that the second lady of the third bedroom of the Pei family had returned home for several days, and she rarely left the door of the third bedroom except to greet the old lady on weekdays.

It's not that the second lady is introverted and doesn't like to go out. The second lady was not like this before she got married. She has an idea at that time, and she can also assist the second wife in housekeeping. She has been very prestigious at home for a while.

Now that I have only been married for half a year, my whole person's spirit is different from before, and I look haggard a lot, and I don't want to go out anymore.

The third wife held back for several days, and now she couldn't help but ask: "Lan'er, have you been wronged at your husband's house?"

Otherwise, why would he look haggard?

Pei Lan originally went home to complain, so she didn't hold back. That's not her character, so she said, "My daughter can't do anything about it. This time, I came back to find a helper."

The third wife knew the seriousness of the situation as soon as she heard it, and said immediately: "What is so serious?"

Only after Pei Lan told her, the third wife knew the whole story.

It turned out that Pei Lan's husband looked good at the beginning, he said that his family style was strict, and there was a saying that he would not take a concubine within three years of marrying a wife.

As a result, not long after she got married, her husband had an affair with the maid.

What can Pei Lan do?It's normal for this man to have three wives and four concubines, but can he stop his husband from taking concubines?In order to show the magnanimity of the main house, he offered to take a concubine for her husband.

I thought that the husband would appreciate his generosity and treat her well, but he turned around and brought a woman back from outside.

"That's a vixen, who spends all day trying to provoke my relationship with my husband. If I don't think of a way, I'm afraid there will be no place for me in the manor in the future."

Although the third wife felt sorry for her daughter when she heard the words, she complained that her husband's family did not keep their promises, and agreed not to take concubines for three years. This wife took two concubines not long after entering the house, isn't it a face to the wife?

"Although the Liu family is not kind, but now that it's done, what else can we do?" said the third wife.

She herself came here like this. Before her husband married her, he had been ambiguous with a few maids, but after the incident, the old lady dealt with it severely, and directly sold those maids to others, which can be regarded as a new introduction. The daughter-in-law is a decent one.

The Pei family has a rule that a concubine cannot be born before a legitimate son, so concubines are not allowed before the main wife gives birth to a legitimate son.

Later she became pregnant, and the doctor diagnosed it as a son, and the husband immediately found someone else. The third wife was pregnant and could not serve her husband, so she turned a blind eye.

Second Miss is not like her mother who just sits and waits to die. She is used to taking the initiative in her own hands.

"It's just some concubines who can't get on the table. I don't object to him taking concubines, but I just don't want to see that bitch rampant. If she gives birth to a child before me, it will be extremely detrimental to me."

"But you are returning home now, isn't it just to give her a chance?" The third wife was puzzled.

The second lady said: "I'm not afraid of it. Our master was injured before and has been taking a blind medicine. That medicine is not conducive to having children. Now that the medicine is stopped, it will take half a year to return to normal. It is enough for me to plan."

The third wife said: "What do you want to do?"

The second lady said: "I'm coming back this time, and I want to choose a servant girl from home to be our master's concubine. She has to be more beautiful, and she has to be a dead bond girl, so that I can control her for the rest of my life."
