"I will definitely take care of Sister Xin's marriage, but as for you and your wife, after you and your husband come to me after you have negotiated it, I will not give you any justice. Okay, go back and I will come after you."
gas."
After driving Uncle Yao away, Gu Qingling's chest felt blocked for a long time.
Fortunately, she had a "smell-smelling space". If this kind of thing happened a few more times, she felt that she would be pissed to death by Uncle Yao.
After driving the maids out of the house and leaving the eldest maid Chun Chun alone, she began to complain: "What kind of brain do you think he is? He has already gone to the capital to be an official, why is he still so 'stupid'? Do you believe what others say?"
At this time, she began to miss Li Wenchong. If he was around, she would still have someone to talk to.
Although the eldest maid Chun Chun is also tight-lipped, she is a servant after all, and it is not easy to tell her directly if there are things you want to say.
The eldest maid Chun Chun comforted her: "How can it be so serious? The uncle is quite capable. Otherwise, he would not have been safe and stable in the capital for so long. Moreover, the "Da Ming Daily" that the uncle is in charge of is not very good.
? What does this mean? It means that the uncle is capable..."
"Don't stress that he has the ability. If he had the ability, he wouldn't have made such a big mistake. You can find out about Master Jing by just asking around. Why didn't he ask? He must have been blown away by someone.
He really takes himself seriously. He doesn’t even look at it. He can sit in that position and get promoted in three or two years. Why on earth...if I hadn’t worked hard from behind, he thought he could get there?”
"Then you have to be capable, so that when the old lady exerts all your strength, the old man can get up. This time, the uncle ignored it. But don't be too angry, old lady. It's such a foul thing, and it doesn't matter to others.
I won’t run up to the uncle and tell him that he’s not in Jinling all year round, so it’s not surprising that he doesn’t know about this..."
"What about when he was in Aurous Hill?"
"Don't they call Mr. Jing the 'Mr. Duanxiu'? I guess when he heard it, he didn't recognize it for a moment. Others will still give the Jing family some face, and they won't expose it in front of the Jing family.
.”
…
Gu Qingling glared at the eldest maid Chun Chun angrily: "Just speak for him. Are you mine or his?"
"Of course I belong to the old lady," the maid Chun Chun stepped forward to beat Gu Qingling's legs and said with a smile, "It's because I belong to the old lady, so I know that the old lady has a sharp mouth and a tofu heart.
Even though you are scolding me so fiercely now, he is still a piece of flesh that has fallen from your body. It’s okay that he is fine. If you really want something, why don’t you worry about it? I still know who is closest to you.
.”
"Yes, yes, you know best that no one around me can live without you, but I can't live without you." Gu Qingling sighed, "But you are old again, and I don't know how many more years I can keep you."
The eldest maid Chun Chun was stunned for a moment: "The old lady wants to drive this slave away? Did this slave do something wrong?"
"You are already eighteen, and all the eighteen-year-old maids are married. If you stay here any longer, I'm afraid I will keep you as an old girl." Gu Qingling looked at the eldest maid Spring, took her hand, and put it on her knee.
He said in a serious voice, "You are just a little older than Sister Xin. Sister Xin is my granddaughter. In my eyes, you are almost the same as my granddaughter... Seeing that you are getting older, do you think I can have no worries?"
I have raised you like a deputy young lady, and I want to choose a good family for you to marry, but I have been wondering for a long time and don’t know who to choose..."
The maids around him would be released when they reached their age. Gu Qingling also released one or two batches, but when he released each batch, he didn't mention the spring.
But Gu Qingling knew well that according to the standards of this era, Spring was actually too old.
This is going to stay...
I’m afraid I’ll have to be an old girl in spring!
The eldest maid's heart moved in the spring, and she rested her head on Gu Qingling's knees: "Then I won't get married. I will accompany the old lady. The old lady will get married in the future. I am not worried. I want to follow the old lady."
Taijun, serve the old lady, I want the old lady to be safe throughout her life."
"I haven't told you anything about my childhood, right?"
"When I was born, I already had three older sisters. The second sister was given away, and the third sister died right after she was born. When I was born, my grandmother almost threw her into a dung bucket and suffocated to death."
"Later, slave's father was still reluctant to let go, saying that he would give it away if the worst happened, so slave could survive. When slave was three or four years old, slave's eldest sister was sold, and then slave's family built a new house. My parents
I have a younger brother."
"At that time, the slave knew that the next one to be sold might be the slave. Not long after, the slave was indeed sold. It changed hands several times in the hands of Ren Yazi, but she was always considered too young."
"Later, the Yao family didn't mind and bought the slave. Later, the slave came to the old lady."
…
Although the rules around Gu Qingling are very strict, the eldest maid Chun Chun said that she could only live a "human" life when she was with the old lady Gu Qingling.
It's the same as serving people, but the old lady will see that she is hungry or cold, and urge her not to miss meals, and to put on more clothes when the weather is cold.
"Old lady," Gu Qingling's eyes turned red, "to be offensive, in my heart, you have been my grandmother for a long time. It was you who made me feel warm. And by your side, I have learned a lot.
We arrived at a lot of things. I also saw..."
I saw that Gu Qingling was working hard to improve the status of women, so that women from every household could show their faces in the world of Jinling and earn money to support themselves.
She is a maid. Although she spends most of her time in the house, she occasionally goes outside and interacts with the poor and humble people.
She comes from a poor and humble background, and she knows very well what kind of life the girls in the poor and humble community live.
However, under the influence of the old lady, the girls in the experimental village were able to do farm work, pick vegetables, and make money with their own hands, and their confidence at home became stronger.
If she is a well-spoken girl, she can enter Baixiang Pavilion, receive distinguished guests, and become the mainstay of the family.
If you are proficient in writing and calligraphy, you can work in the Yao family's bookshop, or you can contribute to the Yao family's newspaper...
Because the Yao family's newspaper often held "literacy competitions", the ordinary people at the bottom of the family would also encourage their children to learn literacy through the newspaper.
Originally, it was just the son who was learning at first, but one day, a girl from a certain family took the lead and won a prize in the competition. It was a surprise - it turned out that girls can also learn calligraphy and participate in the competition.
As long as the girls do not delay their work and learn to read from the newspapers, and their families no longer stop them, more and more girls will participate in the literacy competition.
Later, when the various shops opened by the Yao family wanted to recruit people, they liked to recruit these literate girls.
The eldest maid Chun Chun said: "You don't know, I am so happy when I see so many girls changing their destiny, watching them stand up without knowing it and developing a proud body. I can't say too many things."
It makes sense, but I know that what the old lady did is definitely right. I am willing to stay with the old lady for the rest of my life, and I am willing to watch the world become what the old lady wants to become..."
