Chapter 924 The Sheng Family Arrives
‘Master Hou? Not a count? ’
Before Zheng Yuanyuan traveled through time, she was a student who was about to take the college entrance examination and had a tight study schedule. But during the Spring Festival, she also had some time, and happened to watch a few episodes of the popular drama "Knowledge".
And I am quite impressed with the roles of Mrs. Liang and Liang Han.
She even knew that this drama had an original novel, but she had never read it in detail and only heard about it from her classmates.
So, it dawned on her.
‘The Zhou Dynasty and the capital, not the Song Dynasty and Bianjing, is this world based on the original novel? And I accidentally traveled to this world and became Zheng Yuan, and by some strange combination of circumstances, I was bought home by Liang Han, a swinger who changed my name to Yuanyuan because of my round face? This is too bizarre! ’
Zheng Yuanyuan had a sad look on her face. Although she was somewhat interested in costume romance dramas, she really didn't want to travel back in time. At least she couldn't come here. She was trained in a brothel for two years and six months. When she reached the age of hair, she had to go to the pavilion and be groomed by a random rich man. .
She would rather die.
Maybe after death, I can go back and take the college entrance examination.
Her grades are very good, and she is also a little beauty. Her family is rich, and she is willing to time travel only if she is stupid!
However, she is not very willing to seek death now. Because she is very curious about this novel world, especially about the female pig-footed Sheng Minglan.
She also learned that Sheng Minglan was also a time-traveling woman in the original novel, and she lived well in the end. She became the imperial wife and her husband was considered honest.
As for material conditions, although they may not be as convenient as modern people, such as air conditioning and flush toilets. But other enjoyments are even better.
Can ordinary modern families have maids at their disposal? Even finding a suitable confinement nanny is difficult.
But the problem is that her status is an extremely low-status Le Jiji turned slave, far inferior to Sheng Minglan, a concubine from an official family.
Sheng Minglan does not need to be a maid, but can be the mistress who controls the maids. And she is a maid, the ceiling is not high, even if she becomes a concubine, the treatment is much worse, for example, the monthly salary is only one-tenth of that of the main wife, and the dividends are even more unthinkable.
As for being a famous prostitute? The ultimate goal is not to marry into a wealthy family and become a concubine.
'In the plot of the novel, Liang Han also marries Ming Lan's sister Mo Lan. So after I become his maid, I will probably have the opportunity to meet Ming Lan in the future. Can I let this senior give me a hand? ghg! Forget it, don’t be in a hurry to expose it! Sheng Minglan, a time traveler, may not be good to me, or he might try to kill me! ’
Zheng Yuanyuan is not a boxer, but because of her good conditions, she is often arranged by some jealous female classmates. For example, she looks innocent but is actually smoldering. She is said to be like a golden lotus who cannot survive without a man, and she has all kinds of hookups.
What a pity!
The dark circles under her eyes were all caused by studying at night and staying up until the early hours of the morning. They were not caused by random things!
Just when she was thinking wildly, Mrs. Liang finally stopped worrying about her affairs, but she still didn't let go of her precious son. She touched Brother Tao's half-cut hair and complained in a low voice:
"You're just practicing swordsmanship, why don't you be more careful? My mother is worried about such a big man."
Of course, Chen Tao did not cut off his hair accidentally, but deliberately.
He didn't like to have long hair, so he cut off part of it, and then trimmed it naturally until it became neck-length hair, which was barely acceptable.
But what he did frightened Mrs. Liang.
After all, if you accidentally cut your neck in this position, then the white-haired person will give the black-haired person a favor.
Chen Tao smiled and comforted: "Mom, from now on I won't practice swords, only guns and sticks. This way it won't be so dangerous."
Mrs. Liang warned: "The tip of the iron spear is also sharp. You must be careful not to hurt yourself again."
Born in a noble family, since he did not study literature and take the imperial examination, he naturally had to practice cold weapons, riding and archery and other skills.
And Mrs. Liang would not protect her youngest son and raise him in a boudoir like Mother Jia protected Baoyu.
In fact, at the end of the book, Liang Han did fight with the thieves and saved the nearby neighbors.
The Yongchang Marquis Mansion is very close to the imperial city. It is conceivable that there are many people living nearby. It will definitely be beneficial.
He is not a weakling like Baoyu.
When it's time to kill someone with a knife, you must be determined and have the corresponding abilities, otherwise you won't be able to withstand the crowd of warblers.
Therefore, Mo Lan is by no means as bad off as outsiders think. Although Liang Han is carefree, he also likes her very much. Even for the sake of giving away a bunch of women, I have to protect her!
She is the matron of the house.
She is so reasonable, even a scumbag would love her.
It is unreasonable for Gu Tingye to turn back his prodigal son and treat Sheng Minglan wholeheartedly!
After leaving Madam Liang's courtyard, Chen Tao took Yuanyuan back to his small courtyard.
Main house.
Aunt Chunge, who was in the process of communicating with the eldest maid Xiuzhu, didn't pay too much attention when she saw her man coming back with Yuanyuan, whose face was still purple.
In fact, she didn't care about anyone except Grandma Liang Si, who hadn't decided on a candidate yet.
It wasn't until Cousin Tao told Xiuzhu, "You can take care of this girl. You don't need to give me the monthly payment. It will come from my wife's side." Only then did she become alert.
There is no doubt that the little girl who was beaten by someone is Mrs. Liang's, and now she is told clearly. Is this a warning?
Haruge couldn't help but think too much.
This is normal.
As for otaku fighting, you need to have all kinds of conspiracy theories and little ideas, otherwise how can you fight?
You can't just pick someone up and start a fight.
Xiuzhu agreed with a smile, and then left with Yuanyuan.
She has a sweet look, but has a pair of well-proportioned long legs, and her skin is white and rosy as if she has applied powder. In Chen Tao's opinion, she is really no worse than Chun Ge, but her thinking and ideas are too mature. Just like Xiren, she is very serious and methodical in her behavior, and she is not as good as Wan Chun Ge in dealing with things.
Therefore, she can't let Liang Han experience the feeling of being in love.
This is certainly not her fault, after all, her status is too low.
Wan Chun Ge can cry and make a fuss, but it is not easy for Madam Liang to deal with her, after all, she is also a legitimate master of her relatives.
Xiuzhu is just a maid, and Madam Liang only needs one word to punish her, so she dare not act rashly, and just wants to be a concubine in the future.
Before Zheng Yuanyuan went out, she stole a glance at Chun Ge again, and then found an opportunity to ask Xiu Zhu about the situation.
After all, this is not a drama version, there must be many differences, she can never rely entirely on the drama version to do things, and the Liang family itself does not have many scenes, and the information is limited, so she still has to take it step by step.
After she followed Xiuzhu around and had a general understanding of the courtyard, she was assigned a specific job, which was to stay in Taoge's room to serve.
After all, she was Madam Liang's person. According to future expectations, she would at least be a second-class maid or above, and would not have to do the most labor-intensive cleaning work. Of course, she was just a low-class maid now, and she had to undergo training first, and only after she passed the training could she really take up the job.
Otherwise, she might become a rough maid who could not even enter the main room at will, and her future would be bleak.
In short, she started from a low point, and it was too low...
Zheng Yuanyuan took the teacup handed to her by Xiuzhu, walked nervously to Brother Tao, and said stutteringly:
"Fourth, Fourth Master, please have tea!"
Chun Ge, who was playing the Go game with Brother Tao, couldn't help laughing when he saw her, and deliberately said:
"Why are you so reserved? Can the Fourth Master eat you? I'm thirsty too, pour me another cup."
Fuck...
Zheng Yuanyuan was secretly unhappy, and wanted to splash the tea on her and Brother Tao's faces, then picked up a broom and rushed out, but she didn't do anything after all.
She decided to endure it for a while, and when she couldn't bear it anymore, she would do something big!
Chen Tao took the teacup and said with a smile:
"Sister, don't bully Yuanyuan. She was abducted since she was a child. Her life is very pitiful. I couldn't bear to see her being bullied by the slaves and brothels, so I bought her back. If you bully her, why would I spend this money?"
Chun Ge's eyes turned red and she cried:
"Who did I bully? How dare I bully your girl? This year, I have been bullied by you!"
'This acting, tut tut...'
Zheng Yuanyuan secretly admired.
Chen Tao pretended to be puzzled and said: "Sister, why do you say that? Since you came here, I have loved you enough, how could I bully you?"
'This guy is not an acting skill, he must be a playboy. He doesn't think it's wrong to find another woman, right? '
Zheng Yuanyuan was very disgusted.
Chun Ge was aggrieved: "Then why did you go to the brothel? You have me at home, and Xiuzhu and Hongyu, isn't that enough?"
She is different from Molan. Molan would send women to her husband, but she wouldn't. She has a strong possessiveness.
Chen Tao took a sip of tea, and asked back as if he didn't think he was wrong:
"It's true that I went to the brothel, but I didn't mess around. Didn't I accompany you these nights? Madam told me not to spoil you too much, but I pushed her back. Isn't that enough for you?"
When Chun Ge heard this, he wiped his tears with a handkerchief, and then said with a touching face:
"Good brother~ Don't contradict Madam for me. I seduced you, so Madam should punish me."
Ah~ So giegie~
Zheng Yuanyuan felt a chill in her heart, but she wanted to continue watching. This was much more exciting than watching TV.
6◇9◇Book◇Bar
Chen Tao glanced at her and secretly complained in his heart: ‘This girl may also be a time traveler! ’
The reason is very simple.
On the way back with her, she subconsciously said “I’ll go”, and her demeanor was not like a child.
The weather in Beijing in early May is still relatively refreshing.
It was two quarters after noon, which is about half past two.
Chen Tao’s nap was over, but he was too lazy to get up and do business.
Jia Baoyu can let Bihen accompany him to take a bath for two or three hours, so it’s okay for Chen Tao to let Hongyu accompany him to sleep for a while.
Although Hongyu is a little skinny, she looks good, has a melon-seed face, and has a weak personality, not as strong as Caijin.
Caijin is also a little beauty.
In general, Xiuzhu’s personality is more like Xiren, while Caijin is like a combination of Musk Moon and Qingwen. She is stronger than Musk Moon, but not as strong as Qingwen.
As for Hongyu, Jia Yingchun!
She does whatever Chen Tao asks her to do.
So Xiuzhu is the good guy and Caijin is the bad guy, and they manage the yard together.
Being the bad guy is necessary.
After all, those wet nurses and old women are not easy to mess with. If you dare to indulge them, they will definitely cause trouble.
Anyway, the Liang family treats servants not as arrogantly as the Sheng family. They beat them to death as they say, and they are not afraid of slaves rebelling or being involved in a lawsuit.
After all, they are all human beings, and they will definitely resist when they are forced into a corner.
In the future, some people still ask why slaves should be paid, which is too common sense.
At night.
The Marquis's house naturally has plenty of candles and lamp oil. Although not as good as electric lights, it can dispel the darkness.
Although the time-traveling girl Zheng Yuanyuan is very reluctant, she still serves as Chen Tao's foot-washing maid.
In fact, Chen Tao has already taken a bath. He is used as a teaching aid by Xiuzhu to teach new colleagues.
After investigation, Xiuzhu found that Yuanyuan didn't understand anything, especially how to serve others. She was still stubborn. No wonder she was beaten by the madam all the time. How pitiful!
Yuanyuan was washing her feet when Hongyu came in from outside and said softly:
"Fourth Master, my aunt sent someone to invite you."
Chen Tao smiled and refused: "If you don't go to her place tonight, let's just wipe the dominoes together!"
Yuanyuan complained secretly: 'You did something bad this afternoon, and now you can't deal with your good sister Chun Ge! ’
She is a modern person and is of college age. How could she not understand? I’ve seen it too!
Smoldering indeed.
After Hongyu went out, Chen Tao touched Yuanyuan's head and asked:
"Do you still remember where your family lives? I can send someone over to find your relatives."
Yuan Yuanxin was thinking about it, pretending to be pitiful, and said miserably: "I don't even remember."
In order to prepare for the college entrance examination, she also read the original Dream of Red Mansions, and felt that her life experience was a bit like Xiangling.
And the person in front of him is obviously not the stupid overlord Xue Pan, but a passionate young man like Jia Baoyu.
Movie Emperor Chen sighed softly: "It's so pitiful that she has no parents or relatives. Xiuzhu, please don't criticize her too harshly. Let her live with us with peace of mind!"
Xiuzhu solemnly agreed.
Yuanyuan also blinked, trying to look moved.
Chen Tao chuckled: "Why are you looking at me like this? Wipe my feet."
asshole!
Yuanyuan really wanted to learn from Bao Longxing and pour Chen Tao's foot-washing water on his head.
But she was timid again.
She is both stubborn and timid.
When Chun Ge learned that Chen Tao was unwilling to come over to accompany her, he was naturally very unhappy, so he just came over straight away with his stomach raised.
Chen Tao didn't chase her away, so the whole family started playing dominoes.
At Haizheng time, that is, around ten o'clock in the evening, they dispersed and took a rest.
Chun Ge didn't want to go back, so he fell asleep next to Chen Tao.
Yuanyuan slept on a small bed outside, dreaming that she would be back in the real world when she opened her eyes in the morning.
The next morning.
Chen Tao slept in, and after he dressed and washed under Xiuzhu's service, Mrs. Liang's maid Yunzhi came to invite him.
The old lady of the Sheng family came to the door, and Mrs. Liang invited him to meet her.
‘The old lady of the Sheng family? ’
Yuanyuan became energetic: ‘Is the plot starting now? It was fun to watch! hey-hey! ’
It had to be said that the environment in the Hou Mansion was indeed much better than that of the brothel, and it actually made her want to have fun in spite of the pain.
It's a pity that she is too stuck to go and see it live.
With a snap, Chen Tao slapped her on the head and said with a smile:
"Why are you giggling? Why don't you come in and change my clothes!"
The clothes you wear at home are different from the clothes you wear when meeting outsiders.
Yuanyuan was in a hurry and said with an embarrassed look on her face: "Fourth, Fourth Master, I don't know how."
Chen Tao thought again: "If you don't know how, just teach me! I asked you, if you have learned to play the pipa, you will have to practice it in the future and also learn to sing. Otherwise, you will go to the countryside and farm land for our family." "
‘What does what Zheng Yuan learned have to do with me, Zheng Yuanyuan? I'm not an art student, how can I understand this? ’
Yuanyuan had a sad face, and the remaining bruises made her look funny.
