Chapter 538 Awakening Wu Er
Xu Muhua thought that since Shi Liu had such skills, there should be many other palace maids, or women outside the palace, servants, etc., who had the same good skills.
She could open a workshop and recruit women with good craftsmanship. She would provide drawings and let them make handmade dolls according to them! Ancient Barbie dolls!
There are puppet toys here, but most of them are made of clay, and I have never seen the modern ones. After all, making such a puppet requires cloth, which is too expensive for ordinary people and not worth it.
But for the nobles, this is not a problem at all!
If this workshop can really be opened, it can also help many women and allow them to have a job to make money. Especially some poor people, there are too few jobs for women to make a living.
She never thought about being a living bodhisattva, saving the world or something, but if there is a chance to help others, why not do it? Others can make money to support their families, and she can also make money to live a good life, killing two birds with one stone!
Thinking of this, she could no longer sit still. She stood up and walked to the table under the window and sat down. "Wu'er, come and grind the ink for me!"
If you have any ideas, you should write them down quickly and then organize them slowly, so as not to procrastinate and forget to write them down. After a long time, I am afraid that I will lose interest in writing them.
Wu'er was used to it, so he walked over, rolled up his sleeves and started grinding ink for her.
Xu Muhua buried his head and wrote down the ideas that came to his mind one by one on paper. Wu'er glanced at it and then looked away.
She couldn't understand it. She knew how to read, but she didn't know why. She couldn't recognize the words written by the empress every time, which made her doubt herself. She wondered if she knew too few words, so she couldn't recognize any of the words written by the empress.
Wu'er wondered whether he should make good use of his time and learn more when he had free time, so as not to be squeezed out by others in the future.
In the past, she didn't want to stay in the palace, thinking it was too scary. But now that the young lady has entered the East Palace and become the prince's concubine, she must at least become a concubine in the future, and she will have to stay in the palace for the rest of her life.
Then she is the young lady's personal maid, and she will have to follow the young lady in the future. Following the young lady, she is willing to stay in the palace, after all, it is the best to serve the young lady. She has no worries about food and clothing, and as long as she does not make principled mistakes, the young lady will not punish them.
And the lady has such a cute animal, life is so interesting!
So, as long as she follows the young lady and does things for her, her life will be comfortable in the future! Then she will never be outdone by others!
"By the way, Your Majesty, that..." Wu'er suddenly remembered something and wanted to ask, but after she said it, she remembered that Your Majesty was doing serious business. Would she disturb Your Majesty by doing this?
"What's wrong? Is there something wrong? Just tell me!"
"Ahem, it's just... I just want to ask about Shi Liu... Didn't she say before that Shi Liu and Liang Ming are similar..."
At that time, they said that they would talk about it after the young lady got married. Now that the young lady has become a concubine in the Eastern Palace, will Shi Liu's marriage be arranged as well?
Thinking of this, Wu'er felt a little reluctant.
There weren't many people serving the Empress, and the only maids were her and Shi Liu. Although Shi Liu seemed to have some misunderstandings about her when she first came, the misunderstandings were soon resolved, and they had always gotten along well.
If Shi Liu got married, she would really be reluctant to let her go.
Xu Muhua paused as he finally remembered this matter. "Oh, look at me, I was so busy that I forgot about this matter! You have a good relationship with Shi Liu, have you heard any news from Shi Liu recently?" Xu Muhua turned around to inquire about the news.
Wu Er thought about it seriously and said, "It's all good."
As she spoke, she lowered her voice, "I heard from Shi Liu before that Brother Liang told her that he would find a chance to talk to the queen about their affairs. It seems that Brother Liang is thinking about marrying Shi Liu back home."
Wu'er couldn't help but cover her lips and laugh.
Although she herself has no intention of getting married now, she is happy for her good sisters who have found good marriages.
Xu Muhua nodded: "Liang Ming is not young anymore, it is indeed time for him to consider marriage. Shi Liu is also about the same age, if they are in love, I, as their master, will definitely help them."
After she finished speaking, she turned her head and looked at Wu'er, "Wu'er, what about you? Do you have any ideas?"
Wu'er shook his head honestly.
Xu Muhua paused and said, "Wu'er, I'm not afraid to tell you the truth. If Shi Liu and Liang Ming want to get married, I plan to return Shi Liu's indenture contract to her and let her be a good citizen in the future."
"You and Shi Liu are both my trusted maids. If Shi Liu gets this treatment, then naturally you will get it too."
Wu'er fell silent and said nothing.
She understood what the queen meant.
If she wanted to be free, she had to get married like Shi Liu did, and then the queen would return her indenture contract to her, so that she could get rid of her slave status and become an ordinary citizen.
In the future, the children she gives birth to will no longer be slaves and can even study and obtain official titles.
But she really has no intention of getting married at the moment!
"Of course, if you really haven't found someone you want to marry, but don't want to serve me anymore, I can let you leave the palace." Xu Muhua said. She was not afraid that Wu'er would become wild after hearing this.
Wu Er quickly shook her head and said, "Your Majesty, if I leave the palace, my life may not be better than staying with you. Although I am a servant, you have never treated me badly, let alone abused me. This kind of life is actually much better than the life of many ordinary people."
She and Shi Liu's food, clothing and daily expenses are comparable to those of some young ladies from small families! How can they live such a comfortable life outside the palace! She is not stupid!
Maybe one day in the future she will get tired of life in the palace, but definitely not now!
Xu Muhua smiled and said, "You can see it clearly."
He was quite sober and did not blindly pursue freedom or eager to escape from slavery.
Of course, even if Wu'er really wanted to escape slavery, she could understand it.
No one wants to be a slave for the rest of their life. No matter how good the master is, they are always inferior to him.
But compared to Shi Liu, Liang Ming is not a servant of the Duke of Chengguo's mansion, he is a good citizen. If Shi Liu marries him, it would be best if she gets rid of her slavery. But Wu Er doesn't have such a person around him, so now is not the right time.
When she thought about this problem before, she was worried that Wu'er would feel bad and have wild thoughts when she knew that Shi Liu's slavery was lifted. Now it seems that Wu'er is much more sober than she thought.
