Gu Xiaoli nodded without hesitation, "Yes, you should get married quickly, and then you can move to the city to enjoy life. Or you can move to my house, my mother will definitely take good care of you." The important thing is that in her house, her mother will definitely not let her master work.
Gu Xiaoli had a very beautiful dream and had already begun to imagine Bai Ruozhen marrying him. "Don't worry if you go to Yancheng with my fifth brother. I won't live in the school then. I will go back to work for you every day. I will wash your clothes and vegetables, and you just need to cook." If it weren't for the fact that his fifth brother couldn't cook and it would be a shame for her master, she really wanted her master to never have to do housework.
"Stop talking nonsense." Bai Ruozhen blushed at what she said. She hadn't even agreed to date yet, so why was he talking about marriage? She was only seventeen in a month, and getting married at seventeen here was not an option, it was too early.
Gu Xiaoli grinned, "I just want you to stop working as soon as possible." She glanced at Bai Ruozhen's hand and exclaimed, "Your hand."
Bai Ruozhen pulled his hand back and said, "I'm doing the laundry, it's okay."
"You said it was okay." Gu Xiaoli pulled her hand over and said with concern, "It's a little rough."
Bai Ruozhen was embarrassed. In fact, she herself didn't realize that the original owner used to do labor, and she also did some work after she came, but in fact, her hands were much better than others.
Gu Xiaoli said pitifully, "Master, I'll go wash your clothes." Then she stuffed the schoolbag in her hand to Bai Ruozhen and ran to the backyard regardless of Bai Ruozhen's attempt to stop her.
"Xiaoli." Bai Ruozhen ran after her, carrying his schoolbag. Gu Xiaoli was already fetching water. Then she sat on a small stool, rubbing clothes while crying, "Why do you leave the work of washing clothes to me? Why do you wash clothes for me?"
Bai Ruozhen looked at her mumbling accusations, squatted beside her and poked Gu Xiaoli with his hand, "What's the big deal? It's just washing clothes. I can light the fire and wash vegetables now."
"Ah?" Gu Xiaoli was startled. "Washing vegetables and lighting a fire?"
This is not what her master should do!
Gu Xiaoli stood up and said, "Master, why don't you obey?"
"Uh," Bai Ruozhen touched her nose awkwardly, "Call me Sister Zhenzhen."
Gu Xiaoli pretended not to hear and continued, "Let others do this kind of dirty work. You can just touch the big spoon."
Bai Ruozhen reached out and pinched her angry face, "I'm not the Queen now, how can I be so delicate." Thinking about how she used to pretend to be pitiful and ask others to help her, it was quite embarrassing.
Others can do things better than I do, and others have things better than I do. If she knows everything, she doesn't need anyone to take care of her, and she doesn't have to worry about what to do if others don't care about her anymore.
But these words sounded different to Gu Xiaoli. She was struck by lightning. Her poor master had been pushed to such a point that he could even use such vulgar words. He was not like her previous master at all.
"Master, what's wrong with you?" Gu Xiaoli suddenly threw the bed sheet and rushed over to hug Bai Ruozhen, "What's wrong with you?"
Bai Ruozhen patted her back, feeling both amused and helpless. "I'm fine, please let me go first."
Gu Xiaoli let go of her pitifully, "Master, it hurts me to see you suffer."
Bai Ruozhen pinched her face again, "Society is progressing, and we have to progress too. This is not the Great Zhou anymore, and you can't always be with me. If I want to live a good life, I must become strong myself. Don't you think I'm right? Others don't have what I have, and others can do what I can't. I know how to do it myself, so why should I rely on others to treat me well? Wouldn't it be better for me to treat myself better?"
Gu Xiaoli was stunned for a moment and said blankly, "It seems to be true." Then she added in her heart: But she still couldn't bear to see her master suffer.
Bai Ruozhen smiled, then sat on the stool, picked up the sheets and started washing, "Look, I can wash clothes too." Although she didn't wash them clean and they were a mess, she washed them herself after all.
"Master..." Gu Xiaoli pouted, "But I'm not someone else. I'm your Xiaoli. It's my duty to wash your clothes and do your work." As she said that, she went over to grab the sheets and started washing them.
Bai Ruozhen squatted aside and thought, forget it, let her wash if she wants to. She probably won’t change her previous thoughts in a short time.
After Bai Ruozhen finished washing the clothes, it was still early, so Gu Xiaoli went to the kitchen to clean up the food that Bai Ruozhen was going to cook in the afternoon before going home with her schoolbag.
When they got home, Qiu Lanying asked, "Did you go see your sister Zhenzhen?" After the previous incident, Bai Ruozhen was always embarrassed to see her, and over time, she visited less and less. Gu Xiaoli, on the other hand, always had to go to the educated youth center to see Bai Ruozhen before returning from vacation. She was closer to her than her own mother. Sometimes she even suspected that she had adopted her daughter and that she and Bai Ruozhen were biological sisters.
Gu Xiaoli said sullenly, "Yeah." Then she looked up at Qiu Lanying and said, "Mom, I feel sorry for Sister Zhenzhen."
Qiu Lanying paused what she was doing and said, "Poor thing?" Could it be that Xiaoli knew what happened last night?
"Yeah." Gu Xiaoli said, "Now I not only have to wash my own clothes, but I also have to wash vegetables and cook. How pitiful."
Qiu Lanying rolled her eyes. "I, your mother, wash clothes, make fire and cook every day, and still have to worry about you debt collectors. I'm pretty pitiful."
Gu Xiaoli: “…” I didn’t hear anything.
