In order to repay Mrs. Xue, Mrs. Cao rejoined the Xue family.

Mrs. Xue saw that she was careful and steady, and that people in the Xue family would inevitably point fingers at her behind her back, so she simply sent her to serve Xue Yingying and do some chores.

Chu Yin sighed: "Since they treat you like this, why do you still keep your husband's surname?"

"I know that my concubine has a bad reputation, so I beg my wife to tell the public that I am a widow..." Madam Cao covered her face, feeling that her worst side had been exposed in front of others.

She told Chu Zhiwen that she had given birth to three children and had extensive confinement experience, so Chu Zhiwen personally spoke and asked her to serve Xue Yingying in the house.

On the contrary, Xue Yingying didn't have a deep impression of her, because Xue Yingying was only in her teens when she got married, and it was her mother, not herself, who was favored in front of Mrs. Xue at that time.

However, there were many people serving in Xue Yingying's room. In fact, Madam Cao didn't need to do much every day.

The original nanny of the two children had been dismissed by Xue Yingying because she accidentally heard the two nannies talking bad about Chu Yin behind her back.

But I didn't tell anyone the truth, I just said I didn't like them.

She emphasized several times in the room that anyone who chewed the master's tongue behind his back would be kicked out.

Mrs. Cao did not dare to say anything in front of Xue Yingying, but because she was thinking of Mrs. Xue's kindness, she felt that she was doing Xue Yingying's good, so she came here today.

Chu Yin shook his head slightly.

Qinghao couldn't help but sarcastically said: "Living longer doesn't mean you know more!"

Madam Cao's face was filled with shame and she lowered her head deeply.

Chu Yin thought for a while and said: "I think it's your first time offending, and your starting point is for your sister-in-law's good. I won't be the same as you.

"Your illness is not particularly serious, but because you have not been able to have a good confinement period after several births, it has taken a great toll on your body. You need to be kinder to yourself in the future."

Lady Cao burst into tears of gratitude when she heard that she wanted to treat her illness. She slid to the ground and kept kowtowing to Chu Yin.

Chu Yin ordered someone to help her up, "Since I need to be treated, I'm afraid I won't be able to serve my sister-in-law in a short time."

Madam Cao hurriedly said: "I will go and tell the young lady that the young lady is kind, and that I actually spend most of my time eating idle food..."

The more she spoke, the more she blushed, and quickly added: "My slave is not useless. I am good at embroidery and good at starching. I am willing to be a rough mother-in-law by my side from now on."

Chu Yin couldn't help but laugh: "Don't talk about other things for now. For the convenience of treatment, I will go and talk to my sister-in-law and ask you to move to my place.

"Your illness... requires a combination of acupuncture and decoction in the past few days.

"I have a lot of things going on here, so it's not convenient for me to move back and forth."

Madam Cao hurriedly said: "Everything is up to the arrangements of the young lady. If... if the young lady is willing to take pity on me, I am willing to deed my body to you. Madam took pity on me and did not let me rejoin the slave status."

Qinghao said coldly: "What do you mean by this? If our lady is willing to accept your body contract, is it not pitying you enough?"

"No, no, no," Madam Cao waved her hands hurriedly, "This is not what I mean!" She said and knelt down again.

Chu Yin glanced at Qinghao and said, "Just say a few words and you go arrange a place for her. I'll go to my sister-in-law's place right now."

Du Ruo breathed a sigh of relief. After all, Madam Cao was sent by his wife. Even if they looked down on each other, they couldn't go against her.
