If you do well, you will have plenty of food and beautiful clothes.
If you don't do well, starvation is just the simplest punishment.
Those who educate them encourage them to compete with each other, and the winner with more powerful methods will be promoted and rewarded.
Mrs. Meng said at the right time: "You are so smart and capable, you must be the fastest promoted among them."
Aunt Yang was slightly pleased with herself: "That's because the old slaves work hard and are the most obedient. They like beautiful and good children."
She probably felt uncomfortable because she had held something back for too long.
Once the conversation started, it couldn't be stopped.
Halfway through, she stopped and asked for food and drink.
Mrs. Meng only gave her a little porridge: "I've been hungry for a long time and can't bear to eat too much at once. Drink porridge first."
Nanny Yang drank less than half a bowl of porridge and became even hungrier, so she had to rack her brains to think of important things to say.
"When I was over ten years old, one day they called me over and said they would send me to Lanjing to enjoy their happiness..."
Those people discussed in front of her that if she wanted to be a slave, she would have to be young to be trusted easily.
When you get older, firstly, the host family will worry about not being able to keep you, and secondly, because you haven’t grown up with someone who has watched you grow up, it is not easy to gain trust.
So they arranged for her to beg for food near Meng Mansion. She really begged for food and endured hardship.
After living like this for about a month or two, when she was being bullied, she finally fell in love with Mrs. Meng.
Because she was beautiful, smart, and smart, she was particularly miserable at the time.
Mrs. Meng was immediately impressed. From then on, relying on her wit and talent, she has been able to survive to this day.
Those people didn't ask her to do anything before. As long as she tried every means to gain the Montessori couple's trust, she only considered everything for the Montessori couple.
Every once in a while, they would give her a sum of money, and they would also send someone over to meet her and teach her some skills.
The purpose is to remind her not to forget who she is and why she is here.
When she turned twenty, she also thought that she might as well get married if nothing happened.
Someone was sent over there, and one of her legs was broken, almost disfiguring her appearance. They also beat her with a whip and made her lie in bed for several months.
Mrs. Meng was shocked when she heard this: "So that time was not an accident?"
At that time, Grandma Yang was out on business, and she broke her leg when she came back. She said she spooked the horse and the carriage overturned.
She didn't think about anything else, it was unexpected that this was the case.
Aunt Yang lowered her head and said, "Yes, they come here and whip me every night, but I still can't get better. My skin and flesh are all rotten, stinking and pus-producing, and my whole body is black and swollen. I almost thought I was going to die..."
It was Old Madam Meng who asked the imperial doctor for her and asked for the best medicine for her injuries, but no one knew that besides using it on her legs, she also used it on her back.
It was after that time that she completely accepted her fate.
No matter how powerful Prime Minister Meng's Mansion is, and no matter how kind Mrs. Meng is to her, they can't compare to those elusive and ruthless people.
Grandma Yang said: "Some things, once they become a habit, you won't find it difficult."
In the past ten years, those people began to make demands on her.
At first, she just wanted some information, but later she asked her to try to drive a wedge between Meng Xiangfu, Gu Fenglin, and the Priest Palace.
Grandma Yang said: "In the previous ginseng case, they asked the old slave to tell the Qian family that Mu Yunhan had given us a century-old ginseng, and hinted that she still had a lot of it."
