Soft-waisted little maid

Chapter 1 Why can’t the time-traveling woman lie flat?

The weather in Mingzhou Prefecture is always rainy in summer.

No, it has been raining for three consecutive days now.After finally seeing some sunshine today, the group of little maids in the yard hurriedly took out the bedding, clothes, etc. of the owners of each house, and hung them in the yard to dry one by one.

Xue Ke also mingled with this group of busy maids, helping out from time to time, fanning herself, chatting with her, and chatting casually.Most of them were talking about which one in the house was about to be released, which one fell in love with another, and which one lost his temper again a few days ago. Just talking like this, another morning passed in the blink of an eye.

She's not lazy, it's not her job.It's just that it hasn't been long since she traveled through time, and that's when her curiosity is at its peak.What's more, she also had the ability to read minds, so she just wandered around the house for a few days and got a rough idea of ​​the situation she was currently in.

This is located in Yin County, Mingzhou Prefecture.The owner of this mansion, Mr. Sun, once served as the Minister of the Ministry of Industry and the Master of the Hanlin Academy. When he got old, he returned to his hometown and had four sons.Except for the masters of the eldest and third wards, who were both serving in the capital, there were only three elders left in the house, the masters of the second ward, and the fourth master, who was over 20 years old and had not yet married.

Xue Ke is wearing the clothes of an ordinary maid from the Sun Mansion.

She was originally a "silly girl with a bad mind" - this was the exact words of her godmother, Nanny Shang, who had adopted her since she was a child.

She was thrown on the street in front of the Drum Tower when she was still in her infancy. She barely survived because she was picked up by Aunt Shang who was out shopping on a snowy day. Now that she is older, she is with Aunt Shang in the house. My concubine waited on me.

In addition to herself, Aunt Shang also had a biological son. After the man died early in her life, she put all her efforts into her son. Unfortunately, he was a bastard who could not be taught well, and everyone in the Sun Mansion also had a son. Things you know.

After she traveled through time, people around her immediately noticed that she was much smarter than before. In addition, she had a lively personality and cheerful appearance, not to mention her ability to read people's hearts.Now not only the concubine, but also the always picky master and old lady were very fond of her, because she had been promoted to second-class maid a few days ago, so she no longer had to be responsible for such menial tasks as washing and sweeping.

"Get out of the way, hurry up."

An impatient male voice came from outside the crowd. Xue Ke looked over and saw several servants carrying a maid here.

Xue Ke followed the others and stood up, raising his feet and looking outside the crowd.

I saw that the maid was already lying limply, covered with a coarse cloth, her little face was pale, and no injuries could be seen.It's just that the blood on the body - I don't know where it came from, just kept dripping blood, flowing all over the floor, and even the bodies and hands of the servants were covered in blood.

She felt sick to her stomach and couldn't help but move her eyes away, but she was so close that she accidentally heard the thoughts of the little maids around her.

"It's so miserable. This must be the fourth time this month."

"Second Mistress is too ruthless. With her methods, who would dare to get close to Third Brother? I'm afraid she will be wronged again."

"You're pitiful."

Xue Ke listened briefly.

In fact, she had learned a lot about the rumors about the second room in the past few days, but what she knew alone was enough to scare her to the point where she would never want to set foot in the courtyard of the second room in her life.

The second wife now has a family of four, the second master, the second mistress Xue Shi, the third young master Sun Zan and the fifth miss Sun Yuzhu.

In fact, this second gentleman is quite good. He is the chief envoy of Zhejiang Province. He works in the nearby Hangzhou Prefecture and is usually away from the government.But Second Grandma Xue is a stickler. Even if you just look at how Second Master Sun has not dared to find a concubine for so many years, it is not difficult to imagine her personality.This is also reflected in her discipline of the third young master.

In this Sun Mansion, any maid who comes close to him, no matter who she is, will be regarded as a thorn in Xue's side. If she goes out of her way a little bit, even if she just speaks a few words to the third young master, she will treat her Punish him severely.

Originally, according to this statement, no one would dare to go to the second room.

But this third young master is a "disaster".

It's not an exaggeration, he does look like the person in the painting. Among the ordinary-looking masters and gentlemen in the Sun Mansion, he is like the phoenix flying out of the henhouse.If he doesn't pay attention, people can't help but look at him twice.

Even last year, an official from the capital came to visit as a guest. He drank too much and drank too much during the banquet, making a fuss and clamoring to take him away no matter what.

Therefore, the maids in the second-bedroom courtyard were changed one after another.There were even cases where the front foot was just put in in the morning and slapped out in the afternoon. This is considered a minor injury.It's just that now, it's not just some unlucky guy who has to fill the vacancy of today's maid.

Xue Ke did not intend to get involved in these troubles, so she put away her eyes and continued to sit back on the one-foot-high wooden stool. She picked up the fat beads used by the maids to do laundry. Study it.

This is the fruit of a plant. Since there is little acacia in Zhejiang, this fruit is often used instead. After being exposed to the sun, it looks round, black and fat, like a blackcurrant or a longan core.

While she was concentrating on studying, someone came from the old lady's side and called her.

"Girl, you are actually here. Please let me find you easily. The old lady and concubine are waiting for you to come back."

Xue Ke immediately agreed, turned around and put down the "novel toy" in his hand, said goodbye to several maids, and followed him with a smile.
.
Mrs. Wang, the old lady of the Sun family, was half leaning on the Taishi chair with her eyes narrowed.On both sides of her body stood a maid, fanning her constantly.

She has been getting fatter since she returned to Yinxian County with Mr. Sun. It is best to eat a mouthful of Sanbei Bean Crispy Candy. She must eat it twice a day in the morning and afternoon, accompanied by white tea. In addition, she does not like to move as she gets older. , in less than two years, there are already three layers of meat on his neck.

Therefore, the sultry weather now made her even more upset and agitated.

Mrs. Lin, her concubine, sat beside her, not daring to express her anger.

She comes from a small family, and her father is a scholar who has never been admitted to the official position. After marrying into the Sun family, her only credit was giving birth to the fourth master, and she could barely gain a foothold in the family.

Seeing that Mrs. Wang was visibly upset, she anxiously poked her head out, and when she saw the shadow of the maid Xue Ke at the door, she immediately felt as if a savior had arrived, and hurriedly said: "Madam, Xue Ke is here."

Wang opened her eyes slightly when she heard the noise, and the wrinkles that had been piling up unfolded, and she raised the corners of her mouth: "Oh, this little girl has become more and more courageous. Now she dares to ask my old woman to wait for her. I can't turn back. You have to tell her mother to go."

Seemingly hearing the teasing in the room, the snow guest outside laughed: "I'm late, my wife, do you want to punish me?"

Then, a beautiful woman wearing a snow-green coat and a moon-white satin double-breasted waistcoat walked in slowly.
