After watching Song Dujuan leave, she went inside.
Qiao Lian'er had just gotten up when Zhu Xiang helped her wash her face and said, "Just now Gui Lan asked whether the Qiao family was bought by the Princess Zhenguo or bestowed by the Emperor. Although it sounds ordinary, she was a bit too talkative. I still need to report to the Princess Zhenguo."
"Just answer her questions truthfully."
Qiao Lian'er has nothing to be ashamed of in climbing to this position; it's all based on solid achievements.
Zhu Xiang looked thoughtful.
When Wang Guilan first entered the mansion, it seemed that the mansion took special "care" of her.
She endured far more hardship than other servants who had just entered the household, and this was certainly not a coincidence.
However, the household still promoted her to a second-class maid, which was hard to understand. Was this because they valued Guilan and wanted to train her, or did the household have other plans?
She received no instructions or hints, so she treated Guilan like any other ordinary second-class maid.
Qiao Lian'er's lips curled up. Why did Song Dujuan ask that? Because she wanted to take over the entire Qiao family, or perhaps she had even more wicked ideas.
Such ambition is great and aspirational, but whether she can succeed in achieving it depends on her ability.
"Dujuan has become a second-class maid, and she's getting closer and closer to Qiao Lian'er." Song Qijin and Song Guangdi shared a room and secretly discussed it.
At first, they didn't dare to say anything in private, but as time went on, it seemed that it was no big deal, and it was safe to say anything, so they started to open up.
"Yes, she'll soon become a first-class maid. Then, it will be much easier for her to introduce members of the Song family or do other things while she's by Qiao Lian'er's side," Song Guangdi said smugly.
He has truly raised a good daughter.
Song Qijin: "However, Qiao Lian'er already has four maids, Mei, Lan, Zhu, and Ju, each with their own responsibilities. We won't add any more, will we?"
"That's not necessarily true. My daughter is clever, so making an exception isn't out of the question."
The tung oil lamp slowly burned out, and the two, filled with great anticipation for the future, went to sleep.
Song Dujuan is very diligent every day and tries her best to perform.
But seeing that everyone in the Qiao family was a master, with men and women enjoying endless glory, and many people could step on her head, she felt very resentful.
Being a servant is undignified; you have to be subservient to others and watch their every whim. But a master can be high and mighty.
Her current forbearance is all for future glory. She will repay the suffering and grievances she endures now with all the lives of the Qiao family.
That's a huge profit.
Three months passed and Song Dujuan still hadn't been promoted. She was getting impatient. If Qiao Lian'er only allowed four first-class maids to serve her, then she basically had no chance.
She couldn't wait any longer.
The Song family needs two more members; they're getting impatient outside.
After much deliberation, Song Dujuan approached Butler Chai.
"Your uncle and your aunt both want to work at the Qiao family mansion?" Butler Chai asked, somewhat surprised.
He remembered that Guilan was introduced by Wang Fu, so why was she bringing two more?
He felt as if these people were all connected, as if they were tied together by a rope.
Song Dujuan said, “My uncle and aunt came to the capital to look for me, but they lost their travel money and are now wandering around the capital without a place to stay. Meanwhile, I am living a good life in the Qiao family. I feel uneasy about this.”
