Chapter 5: Mrs. Li's Heart is Moved
Chunhong saw that her sister had a worried look on her face. Chunxing had always been smarter than her and she was the one who gave Chunhong advice on how to answer the lady's questions.
But no matter how smart you are, what can you do when your life is in someone else's hands?
Chun Xing saw that her sister was really worried and comforted her,
"Don't be so sad, the girl will finish her meal soon, so let's have a couple of bites.
Don't worry, I'm just a maid. The one who should be worried is our silly girl.
My mother told me a few days ago not to think about becoming a concubine.
This eldest girl is marrying off only to hold a place for the second girl. After all, no matter how beautiful our second girl is, she is just a concubine's daughter.
Being a concubine is fine, but being the Crown Prince's wife directly is not qualified enough.
The Ningguo Mansion cannot afford to lose this person.
But Prince Zhao and our Second Miss are in love with each other, and Madam has never shown the Second Miss a date. It is easy to imagine what Madam is planning.
If I dare to become the concubine of Prince Zhao, I will make the second lady unhappy.
Haha, they don’t have a good life in the mansion.
But she didn't think about why I should listen to her.
They raised me for eight years, but just gave me leftovers to keep me from starving, and it didn't cost me a penny.
But during the years I was on duty, I gave them fifty or sixty taels of silver, and I have repaid them for their kindness long ago.
As for the grace of life, I had already returned my life to them when they left me to fend for myself without helping me.
My current life was given by my sister, and I will just remember your kindness."
Seeing Chun Xing's red eyes and biting her lips, Chun Hong couldn't say anything to comfort her.
These words were indeed outrageous, but if Mrs. Li had any love for Chun Xing, this girl would not be so cold-hearted.
The topic they were talking about was really not very appetizing. Both of them had no appetite, so they ate quickly and hurried back to Jiang Xinyu to serve them.
At this time, Jiang Xinyu had also finished eating, in every sense of the word.
The two maids looked at the clean basins and bowls and the plates that had just been washed, and they couldn't control the expressions on their faces.
Girl, this is a starving ghost
Not to mention skipping breakfast, even if you go hungry for three days you won’t get the same effect.
Chunhong cried out and quickly touched Jiang Xinyu's belly.
"My girl, you can't eat like this even if you are very hungry."
Jiang Xinyu was somewhat embarrassed. She didn't want to eat like this, but she just couldn't help it.
The first few minutes were indeed because I was hungry, but the rest of the time it was because I was craving for food.
She also made a new discovery. Although her supernatural powers had not returned, her appetite seemed to have returned.
According to her original memory, she would usually be full with half a bowl of rice, a bowl of soup and a few dishes. No wonder she looked frail and sickly.
She thought she would feel uncomfortable after eating so much all of a sudden, but she didn't expect that the food would quickly turn into energy to nourish herself after entering her stomach, just like when she had superpowers before.
Not only did she not feel bloated anymore, she also felt stronger than last night.
This discovery is really surprising.
If she wasn't afraid of causing trouble, she would have ordered another table of dishes.
It seems that my special ability has not completely disappeared, but it cannot be fully utilized because this body is too weak or there is not enough time to adjust to it.
Although the girl repeatedly said that she was fine, Chunhong was still a little worried.
But as a little maid, she did not dare to take the initiative to find a doctor without the master's order.
There happened to be some commonly used pills in the room, so he took out two hawthorn pills and told the girl to help her digest her food.
Jiang Xinyu didn't waste any time, just took it and put it into her mouth.
Not bad, sweet and sour and delicious.
Chun Xing thought about what she wanted to say and quickly cleaned up the dishes and food boxes.
He then winked at Chunhong and asked her to guard the door, and then he carefully patted Jiang Xinyu's shoulders while telling her about his concerns.
Jiang Xinyu was not an ancient person after all, so she really didn't think about the indenture for the moment.
Seeing that the young lady was not angry, Chun Xing hurriedly said, "I have been following the young lady since I was a child, so I am naturally thinking for the good of the young lady.
You will be getting married in two days, and all of us will follow you in marriage.
To put it bluntly, we servants are also your dowry.
But if you don't have the indenture, it's like giving a house as a dowry without a deed or a farm as a dowry without a deed.
Although you can use it the same way, if there is no contract, the item is not yours after all."
What he said made a lot of sense. Jiang Xinyu couldn't help but look at the girl named Chun Xing again.
In the original body's memory, Chunhong was honest and dull but gentle and considerate, and she took good care of her food, clothing, housing and transportation.
Chun Xing is clever, sweet-spoken and smart, and she is very satisfied with both girls.
But Jiang Xinyu is already in her twenties and has lived through three years of the apocalypse, so her perspective on people is definitely different from that of a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl.
Chunhong seems honest and kind, but in fact she is very selfish and cold-hearted.
She is usually not competitive and would give small favors to others. Everyone in the yard praises her for her good relationships with people, but in fact, she doesn't open up to anyone.
This Chun Xing is even more amazing. Not only is she smart and courageous, but it seems that she later climbed into bed with Zhao Chengye and became his concubine.
Now that Chun Xing suddenly came up with such an idea and seemed so determined to do it, Jiang Xinyu couldn't help but think about it.
Chun Xing couldn't help but feel nervous when she saw the girl looking at her.
She always felt that the girl was different since she woke up this morning.
If she had come up with such a good idea in the past, the girl would have rewarded her with a handful of silver seeds.
Jiang Xinyu looked at Chun Xing for a few times and suddenly smiled. He said it was a good idea and asked her to accompany him to walk around the yard to digest the food.
No matter what Chun Xing's selfish motives are, there are naturally only advantages and no disadvantages for her to go through the indenture contract.
Anyway, she had a natural hostile relationship with the mother and daughter in that hospital, so she would be happy as long as this matter could make them unhappy.
What could be more fun than making trouble for your enemies?
It just so happens that there will be many people coming to the makeup show tomorrow, and she wants to see whether the virtuous Madam Liu will give her a contract to sell her body.
The air in ancient times was really good. Jiang Xinyu strolled leisurely in the yard, smelling the faint scent of grass in the air with a happy expression.
For her, a world without zombies would be such a wonderful place.
It would be even happier if you could have no worries about food and clothing and live in luxury.
She seemed quite content here, totally unaware of how deeply her words in the morning had shocked Li Mingyue and her daughter.
After leaving her place, Li Mingyue hurried back home and even forgot to say goodbye to Jiang Wanqiu.
As soon as she saw her mother, she immediately told him everything Jiang Xinyu had said.
Mrs. Li has been in charge of the household for many years and she is not stupid, so she naturally thinks about more things than her daughter.
But even though she knew that this was not right, she was still deeply moved.
It is inevitable that people have selfish desires in their lives. If she had a son, she would not dare to let her daughter do whatever she wants for the sake of her son's future.
But she only gave birth to one baby, Li Mingyue.
For Mrs. Li, naturally nothing is more important than her daughter-in-law.
As for his master's career and the illegitimate sons in the backyard.
Haha, she doesn't even care about her own life, so why would she care about the lives of those people?
If it weren't for the fact that Governor Xiao was too powerful and escaping the marriage was not an option, she would rather die than let her daughter marry a eunuch.
Now that someone was willing to fill the fire pit for her daughter, Mrs. Li immediately asked someone to prepare a gift.
She wants to meet the eldest daughter of the Jiang family.
