Chapter 238 Loyal Maid 2
Chapter 238 Loyal Maid Part
Linlang naturally noticed the coachman's hesitation and felt warm in her heart. The eldest lady was so kind to the original owner. She was afraid that the original owner would encounter danger on the road, so she specifically instructed the coachman to send the original owner back. No wonder the original owner was willing to repay such a good person with her life.
Linlang smiled at the coachman, "Don't worry, this is in the town, not in a remote place. Nothing will happen on the country road. If I really run into trouble, I will definitely go to the mansion for help. I hope you can help me and let me go see my distant relatives. I haven't seen them properly in so many years since I left."
The groom nodded slowly, "Okay, where is your distant relative? I'll take you there."
Linlang pretended to be frightened and said, "Please don't do that. If I went there in a carriage with so many things, people who don't know me would think I was doing some shady business outside.
Besides, the master will be back from the government office soon, so go pick him up quickly."
The master was an honest official who lived on his salary, so there were few people in his family and only one carriage. If I used a carriage to take myself to the countryside today, the master would have to walk back.
The groom scratched his head and finally let Linlang go. Before leaving, he said, "If you encounter any problems, remember to go to the mansion for help. The master and the mistress are thinking about you."
Linlang smiled gratefully. After seeing the coachman off, she went to the pawn shop with her bags of things and pawned everything she had accumulated over the years.
She put the silver she pawned into her bag, then threw it into the space, then turned around and went to the pharmacy to buy a lot of medicinal herbs. After doing all this, she hired a shabby little carriage and asked the other party to take her to the capital.
Linlang is not a fool. The original owner's parents sold her twice in the previous life. If she goes back this time, she will probably be sold by them again. Fortunately, she is a free person now. From now on, she is far away from home and no one can control her.
"What? You want to sell yourself?" The housekeeper looked at the little girl in front of her with shock. She had a round face and curved eyebrows when she smiled. She looked likable and had a calm personality. She was a good candidate to be a palace maid, but the prerequisite was... Who would be so idle as to sell themselves and then enter the palace to be a slave? The palace was a cannibalistic abyss and one could be crushed to pieces if one was not careful.
Linlang nodded firmly, "Mammy, I know you have a little granddaughter who is old enough to enter the palace this year. Your family only has this little girl of that granddaughter generation. If she enters a place like that in the palace, she will probably never be able to get out. But it's different for me. My parents have already sold me once. If I go back, I will probably be sold to that dirty place by them.
I thought about it and decided that the safest place in the world is the palace. Although I would be a palace maid, as long as I worked hard, I could stay in the palace for the rest of my life and enjoy endless delicious food...
Mammy, this is a deal that has the best of both worlds. Of course, I can't enter the palace for nothing. There is no such thing as a free lunch in the world. I asked someone and found out that it would cost at least fifty taels of silver to buy off a person to enter the palace. But I don't want that much. Thirty taels is enough..."
The nanny thought it was a piece of cake, or that this little girl was up to something, or was doing something bad in the palace. When she heard that the other party wanted money, the nanny laughed immediately.
It seems that the other party was just afraid of being sold by her parents again, and wanted to find a way to make a living in the palace, so she found me. However, this was also a good thing for me. I only had a little granddaughter, but my family had a quota for her to enter the palace. She couldn't bear to let her granddaughter do that kind of work. There were many families like theirs, all of which had jobs in the palace or worked on the imperial farm. The family had to choose one person to serve in the palace. Girls were fine, but boys had to be eunuchs. Many families couldn't bear to give up their children, so they would buy them from outside or find someone else to replace them.
Mammy was actually a little hesitant. She looked at the age and the child was really good. He also had a household registration. It was obvious that he was from a good family and would not have done anything. The most important thing was that the money was low...
"Forget it. You and I are destined to be together, and you were introduced by someone else..." The nanny gritted her teeth and nodded vigorously, "But you can't bring any messy things into the palace."
Linlang agreed with a smile. It was not easy to find this nanny. After coming to the capital, she had been trying every means to enter the palace. However, entering the palace was not as easy as she chose. Every maid who entered the palace was either purchased from other places or selected from good families. She had no connections and didn't know other people, so she came up with this idea. Asking for money was also to dispel the other party's suspicion.
Yes, Linlang came to the capital just to enter the palace. As long as she entered the palace, she would be able to find the young lady. Then she would find ways to transfer to the young lady's side to serve her. Relying on her modern memory, she would ensure that the young lady would be able to thrive in the harem. Even if they could not gain the favor of the young lady, they could still live safely in the harem.
During the whole journey, Mammy always looked at Linlang with suspicion, fearing that he was here to cause trouble. It didn't matter if he died alone, but if their whole family was implicated...
Linlang was not a fool, so she naturally saw the other party's suspicion. She touched her face and said, "Mammy, I am not bad looking. I heard that the palace held a beauty pageant some time ago. If I were not from the countryside, maybe I could become a queen in the palace."
The nanny showed a look of disdain, thinking that this was just a sparrow who wanted to fly up to the tree and become a phoenix. She immediately dispelled all her doubts, sent the man into the palace, and stuffed the silver that she had promised before into his hands.
"Since you have taken the silver, you should know what to say and what not to say. After entering the palace, you will be a servant in the palace. Don't cause trouble for your family. When you enter the palace, serve the master well. Don't be too ambitious, or your life will be as fragile as paper.
Madam, I have served in the palace for so many years and have seen many peerless beauties. Even if they were favored, they would die in a few years. The harem is not something that ordinary women can afford. You need good looks, but if you don’t have them, you need family background. If you don’t have family background, you can just be your little maidservant…”
Linlang caught the angry look, and before she could finish her words, the nanny turned around and left without any courtesy. Before leaving, she added, "I also know a lot of aunts in the palace. You'd better not do anything weird, otherwise I will punish you in many ways."
Linlang immediately showed a look of fear. After the others left, Linlang followed the eunuch into a Huangzhuang. The selected palace maids could not enter the palace immediately. They had to be taught the rules outside for a period of time, and then their hair was shaved. This was mainly to prevent lice, which would be bad if they were infected to the masters in the palace.
After studying for two months, Linlang deliberately controlled her speed so as not to stand out too much. When she was finally about to enter the palace, Linlang took out twenty taels of silver and stuffed it into the aunt who was in charge of affairs, hoping that she could be assigned to a good place.
