Chapter 369 The little girl takes action but doesn't talk
The next afternoon, Lu Qiniang was dressed in new clothes.
Seeing this, the women working asked her if she was going to someone's house for a banquet.
This matter was not set in stone, so Lu Qinniang just tried to get around it with vague answers, feeling very nervous, as if she had a rabbit in her heart.
When they were about to set off, Daya suddenly said she had a stomachache and asked Sanya to accompany her.
Lu Qiniang was nervous while asking people to call for Doctor Hu.
"Mom, I'm fine. I just had something cold at noon and got an upset stomach. You can take my third sister with you. It's nothing. Don't forget, it's Aunt Sang."
"Here, here...okay."
This is forcing the issue.
Lu Qiniang was worried because Daya didn't go.
"You can do it."
Lu Qinniang knew how to drive a carriage, so she didn't need anyone else to help her and drove the carriage by herself.
San Ya also refused to sit in the carriage and sat outside with her, and the mother and daughter headed towards the palace.
On the way, Lu Qiniang worriedly warned San Ya, "We're at the palace gate. If you speak a little louder, everyone in the palace will hear you. So, you should keep your loud voice to yourself, and I, too, should never speak carelessly. This is a big deal for your elder sister. If you don't behave properly, you'll be laughed at in the future."
San Ya made a gesture to seal her mouth, "Mom, don't worry, I will lock my mouth and become mute."
"That won't do either. You should be polite, okay? Just do whatever I tell you to do."
"I understand. Don't worry."
Lu Qiniang touched her twitching left eyelid and muttered to herself, "Left eye twitching means good fortune, right eye twitching means disaster. I'm going to get rich today. This is a good omen."
"I saw magpies when I went out today. It's a good thing." San Ya said while shaking her legs, begging Lu Qiniang to let her drive for a while.
"Go slower." Lu Qiniang handed the whip in her hand to her.
You know what, San Ya learned it quite well.
"What's so difficult about this? I've even learned how to ride a horse." San Ya said proudly, "It's just that I'm too short now. When I grow taller, I'll be able to get up and down as easily as Aunt Jiang."
Jiang Yi is San Ya's future self.
Time passed quickly as they were talking. When the mother and daughter arrived at the palace gate, they were stunned when they saw so many carriages.
Lu Qiniang said that she knew there would be competition, but she didn't expect it to be so fierce.
But on second thought, a lot of people have been released from the palace, and maybe everyone has different requests, so we should be optimistic.
So Lu Qiniang quietly looked at the people around her.
She found that there were roughly two types of people around her.
One type of people are obviously the well-known maids from wealthy families. They should be the ones who come to invite people on behalf of the master family.
The other type of people were similar to her, ordinary people in the market, and they should be here to pick up the family members coming out of the palace.
The palace maids who entered the palace in this dynasty were all daughters of ordinary families.
Entering the palace is similar to "gilding". Starting at the age of 20, you can apply to leave the palace every year.
It is easier for those who have seen it in the palace to get married when they return home.
Lu Qinniang and San Ya mingled with the crowd, and others thought she was just there to pick up her family, so she wasn't noticeable.
Lu Qiniang thought that losing weight would have its benefits.
In the past, with her weight of 200 pounds, wherever she stood, she would be the focus.
After waiting for a while, a group of young women carrying packages walked out of the palace gate.
"Here it comes!" someone shouted.
Everyone rushed forward, craning their necks, anxiously looking for the person they were looking for.
Lu Qiniang didn't know Aunt Sang, and it was not appropriate to shout loudly at the palace gate. She was a little at a loss for a moment.
"Let me go, I won't go with you!" A woman's sharp cry suddenly came from the crowd.
Everyone was shocked.
Lu Qiniang is no exception.
She was tall, and when she stood on tiptoe to look over, she saw a young, fair-skinned girl with an oval face being pulled by two women.
The two women seemed to be still fighting over her.
Lu Qiniang was surprised.
Oh my god, these two families are fighting over someone and they’ve even made him angry?
"Mom, mom," little San Ya was squeezed in the crowd, jumping anxiously and unable to see clearly.
"Give up! I won't go back with you." The girl was filled with grief and indignation. "My parents are gone, and I have no home. You say you are my elder and younger sisters-in-law and are thinking about me, but in reality, you just want to sell me to the old man for silver."
Lu Qiniang suddenly realized that this was an "unequal distribution of spoils."
This girl is so pitiful.
She had just come out of the palace with strict rules and hadn't even had time to catch her breath when she was about to be sold.
The guards at the palace gate heard the commotion and came over to disperse the crowd. "Go, go, go, everyone! This is a restricted area of the palace. No one is allowed to make noise here."
"Let me go!" the girl shouted angrily. "Even if I'm jailed today for making a noise, I won't let you two black-hearted people succeed!"
Seeing this, Lu Qiniang couldn't help herself and stepped forward to scold the two women who refused to let go and argued until their faces turned red and their necks became thick, saying: "How can a sister-in-law be so shameless!"
She pulled the girl behind her and said, "If you guys make trouble again, I'll take her to Shuntian Prefecture to file a complaint."
"What does our family affairs have to do with you?"
"That's right, less dogs catching rats, more busybodies."
The two people who were originally fighting for something are now standing on the same front.
"If she's willing, then that's your family's business. If she's not willing, then you're forcing her into prostitution."
San Ya blinked her eyes, feeling that the word "mother" was not quite right.
But as long as people can be saved, who cares?
She wanted to join in, but she remembered Lu Qinniang's instructions.
Oh, this is the palace gate, and her mother doesn't let her speak.
Forget it, she won’t say anything.
Then everyone suddenly saw a tanned, strong and healthy little girl like a calf, rushing towards one of the women, knocking her so hard that she almost fell to the ground.
Without giving anyone a chance to react, the little girl did the same thing again and pushed another woman away.
Then, this "stubborn" little girl touched her head, looked up at the person who looked like her mother with an expression of seeking praise.
Lu Qiniang lowered her voice and said, "Little Ancestor, this is the palace gate."
San Ya felt aggrieved, "I didn't say anything."
Lu Qiniang: "...Ancestor, I told you not to speak, and you attacked me?"
"I didn't do it with my hands. I moved my head." San Ya said unconvinced.
Lu Qi Niang: "Forget it, forget it, I won't say anymore."
She looked at the two women again and warned them, "If you continue to act recklessly, I will take your sister-in-law to Shuntian Prefecture to file a complaint. Then I will take you and beat you with a stick first."
The two women were naturally dissatisfied and came over cursing.
"What is this for?"
