Before Su Wan opened her eyes, she heard her mother sobbing softly.
But wasn't her mother dead?
"Awake, this is awake."
"The fourth girl is awake, go and call the master over!"
In addition to these noisy voices, Su Wan also heard a gentle and familiar voice: "Good Wan'er, it's all because of your uselessness and your inability to fight."
Aunt?
What kind of name is this? What is this if you don’t fight for it?
When Su Wan opened her eyes completely, she was shocked by what she saw.
An ancient and somewhat shabby room, with a familiar figure beside him wearing ancient costume?
Just as Su Wan was about to call for her mother, the door of the room was pushed open.
Wow, they’re all ancient costumes?
Su Wan didn't have time to do anything and fell asleep again.
When she woke up again, she already knew her situation.
In her previous life, she had just received an admission letter and was preparing to go to the cemetery to sweep the grave of her deceased mother. On the way, she encountered a runaway truck and died on the spot. It seemed that she saved a primary school student before she died?
Whatever the case, he's definitely dead.
The only regret is that I didn’t tell my mother the news that I was admitted to a good university.
She was as frail and sickly as her mother. Before her mother passed away, she often said that it was her poor health that caused Wanwan's poor health.
But Su Wan never thought so. She felt that her mother was the best, most gentle and the one who cooked the best meals in the world.
In this life, she traveled to an unknown dynasty in a place called Tianxiang Country. The customs and habits were somewhat similar to those in ancient China, but not exactly the same.
My original name in this life was also Su Wan. I was a concubine’s daughter of the Su family in Anhua Street, Chongnanfang, Kyoto.
The Su family has some skills in making pasta, which was fine in the early years, but in recent years all their shops have been sold.
The master of the Su family also went to other restaurants to work as a pastry chef.
Even with such a financial situation, Mr. Su, the original body's biological father, still married a wife and two concubines and raised one son and three daughters.
The son among them is the eldest son out of wedlock.
It can be seen that this family is a mess and not a peaceful one.
The Su family has one son and three daughters.
The first wife gave birth to the second daughter, who is seventeen years old this year.
The second concubine gave birth to the eldest son, the third daughter, one eighteen and the other fifteen.
The third aunt gave birth to the fourth daughter, Su Wan, who is twelve years old this year.
The wife wanted to send the second concubine's fifteen-year-old daughter to the palace, stay there for five or six years, and then leave the palace at the age of twenty-one or twenty-two.
He also forced people to enter the palace on the grounds that the list had already been submitted to the palace and it was difficult to change it.
It just so happened that the imperial palace was recruiting palace maids this year, so it was an excellent reason to select female officials. They also said that the family's livelihood was not good and they could not support so many people.
If the second concubine's daughter could become a female official in the palace, then their Su family would have an easier time outside the palace.
The master of the Su family was originally persuaded, and besides, the list had been reported and it was really difficult to change it. No matter what, someone had to be sent in.
But how could it be easy to get along with an aunt who gave birth to a concubine's eldest son and then gave birth to the third daughter of the Su family?
In the end, I don’t know how the master of the Su family was told, but the person who entered the palace was changed from the fifteen-year-old third daughter of the Su family to the twelve-year-old fourth daughter of the Su family.
At the age of twelve, she was sent to the deep palace to work?
It's a relief that they could think of it.
But the second concubine said with a smug face that the fourth girl was young and could stay in the palace for six years and then get married.
By the time the news reached the ears of the third concubine in the small room, the master of the Su family had already sent people to make arrangements to remove the name of the third lady of the Su family and replace it with the fourth lady.
The third concubine was the original body's biological mother. She used to be a maidservant beside the main wife of the Su family. She was timid and cowardly, and was originally going to be sent away to marry, but she was possessed by the master of this family, so she stayed.
Although she said she would stay, this family was not wealthy, and she was still working as a maid.
Although she lived in fear on weekdays, at least she had a daughter, which gave her some comfort.
When the news came, the original fourth daughter of the Su family, who was as timid and cowardly as her biological mother and in poor health, developed a high fever at night.
When she woke up again, the core of her body had changed. She was now Su Wan from modern times, not the fourth girl Su from this family.
Su Wan sorted out the information and tried hard to digest the relationships between the characters.
What a coincidence.
She is just like her original self, both of them are frail and sickly.
And their mother has the same voice, appearance and smile.
So just now, in a trance, she mistook the third aunt for her own mother.
At this moment, Su Wan was leaning against the pillow. The third aunt's eyes were red and swollen, but her voice was gentle and soft: "Wan'er, drink some more porridge? You need to eat more, so that you can get better."
As she spoke, Third Aunt's tears began to fall again.
Su Wan couldn't bear to see people with the same face as her mother crying, so she tried to eat half a bowl of porridge and couldn't eat any more.
When Su Wan felt better, the people who should come came.
It was nothing more than to see if she was feeling better and to tell her when to go to the palace.
Because she had a family-inherited skill, she was sent directly to the Shangshi Division to be a maid when she entered the palace. She did not have to wait for unified assignment and was treated slightly better than ordinary maids.
The person who came to deliver the message avoided looking around. It was obvious that he knew that the fourth girl was still in bed, and it was really too much to ask her to leave early tomorrow morning.
But so what if it's excessive? Everyone knows that the fourth girl and her aunt in this family are the easiest to bully.
Wait for the messenger to leave.
The third aunt cried again, and the look she gave Su Wan was so gentle that Su Wan couldn't help but think of her mother.
After all, Su Wan was not a real twelve-year-old child. She gently wiped her tears and said, "Don't worry, I'll be fine. The matter is already settled, there's no point in saying anything else."
"Besides, if things are like this at home, there are more options for going out."
After Su Wan sorted out the information in her mind, she already had a plan in mind.
In her opinion, rather than being a concubine who is bullied by everyone in this family, it is better to enter the palace and find a way to make a living. It is worse than staying in this family anyway.
The wife of this family can send her concubine's daughter to the palace to deliberately delay her marriage age. It is not impossible that she will force her to marry an old man to pay back the money later.
This is not a respectable family.
The third aunt looked at Su Wan and always felt that she seemed a little different.
He was still the same person, but he seemed much more resolute. Although he was only a twelve-year-old child, his words were very methodical.
Su Wan looked at the sky outside and it was already night.
Since she is going to enter the palace, she must make some preparations.
"Aunt, I want to meet the master. Can you help me tell him?" Su Wan said.
The third aunt nodded subconsciously, but then asked, "What do you want to do with your father?"
Su Wan smiled: "Don't worry, I'll be fine."
Although the third aunt is not capable enough, she does care about her daughter and is a good mother.
Since she used the original body, she would be filial to the original body and try her best to make the Third Aunt live a better life.
When Su Wan saw the master of the Su family, her original father, she had a smiling expression, but also had the ignorance that is typical of a little girl.
Whether this father is good or not has nothing to do with her.
But some things must be made clear first.
Su Wan returned from her room and reached her aunt's room in just a few steps.
This family is strange. They are obviously very poor, but the concubine not only lives in the servants' room, but also continues to work as a maid. There are only a few servants in total, and the house is not big, but their airs are comparable to those of rich families.
Su Wan also knew something about it. It was simply that the Su family had good ancestors but had only fallen into decline in recent years.
What does this have to do with her?
As soon as Su Wan came back, someone came with new bedding and new window paper to renovate the house for the Third Aunt.
Without waiting for the Third Aunt to ask, Su Wan smiled and said, "Aunt, from now on, you should do your own thing. You don't have to serve your stepmother anymore, nor do you have to work for the Second Aunt."
"Don't worry, I've said it all."
In the main house, the wife of the Su family was furious. She pointed at the master of the Su family and cursed: "She doesn't work? Then the family needs to hire someone else. We don't have the money!"
"You said you had no money, but you still married so many concubines. What's the point?"
The Su family master immediately said, "Only two, is that too much? Besides, my family has a shop that collects rent. If you run it well, isn't this enough to spend?"
"You're the one who started this. Why did you send your daughter to the palace for no reason? Now that she's in the palace, can't you treat her biological mother with respect?"
These quarrels have nothing to do with Su Wan.
As long as she stayed in the palace, no one dared to blame the Third Aunt.
According to what she said to Master Su just now, "Now that I am in the palace, I can file a complaint at any time. Even if I can't file it to the emperor, I can still file a complaint to the female official. There will always be someone to come and administer justice."
This is not a scare tactic.
Su Wan meant what she said, and if she was really angry, she would dare to file a complaint directly to the emperor.
Since she wants to help her original self support her biological mother, she will definitely do it.
It's not easy to live a new life, she is a person who cherishes her life very much!
Seeing Third Auntie who was very uneasy about using the new bedding, Su Wan smiled and comforted her, "Don't worry, Auntie, no one dares to say anything."
The third aunt, who had done rough labor for half her life, didn't know what to say for a moment and could only hug her thin daughter and cry.
Her fourth daughter is so thin, it's so pitiful.
Su Wan was a little stunned by this embrace, but she was still young and had just talked about many things with the master of the Su family, so she couldn't help but fall asleep.
In her dream, she seemed to be in her mother's arms, feeling particularly warm.
When Su Wan woke up the next day, she still felt a little embarrassed.
But the third aunt patted her gently, her eyes were red, and it was obvious that she had not slept all night.
"Fourth sister, hurry up and pack. Someone from the palace is here to pick you up. Hurry up, the ladies-in-waiting are almost here!"
There was a knock on the door and Su Wan had to get up.
The person who called her was the third daughter of the Su family, the one who was originally going to enter the palace.
At this moment, Su Wan pushed open the door. She seemed a little guilty. Finally, she stuffed a purse into her pocket, turned around and ran away.
Su Wan saw dozens of copper coins inside.
Yes, giving money is the most practical way, and she accepted it.
When the twelve-year-old Su Wan was waiting for the female official to come at the door with the package, the third aunt started crying again.
Her Wan'er is twelve years old, but looks like a ten-year-old girl. What should she do when she enters the palace?
On the contrary, little Su Wan was very calm. She turned her head to look at the master of the Su family, the Su family's first wife, and the second concubine next to her.
Su Wan said, "Please treat my aunt well, otherwise I will not forgive you when I become a female official."
Even though Su Wan tried hard to keep her composure and make her voice sound less childish, her voice still made the approaching female officials laugh.
What an ambitious little girl, but she is too short, like a tiny kid.
The laughter made little Su Wan look over. A group of female officials in official uniforms were looking at her with smiles, obviously having heard her bold words just now.
Finished!
Before I even started working, my boss heard that I wanted a promotion!
So embarrassing.
