296: Li's plan, Aunt Yue's gentleness
The Zhang family’s house is very big. Although the weather is bad now, there are still many green plants in the yard, making people feel very cool as soon as they come in.
In a very tidy and clean courtyard, two maids were standing under the porch. Neither of them spoke, and no sound came from the house.
In fact, someone was talking in the house at this moment, but their voices were not loud, so this quiet yard seemed very peaceful. The weather was hot, making people a little sleepy.
The little maid at the door was sleepy. Although she was standing, she dozed off with her head down. When she was half asleep, she suddenly heard a noise coming from inside the room. The one who was about to fall asleep was startled all of a sudden, while the other one opened her eyes wide.
Hearing no one shouting in the house, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief and looked at each other, wondering what happened. Did someone fall?
This yard belongs to the young lady. She usually has a good temper, so it is definitely not because she lost her temper that she dropped the things. It was probably an accident, so they don't need to worry.
Just as they were thinking about it, a maid who was one or two years older than them came out of the room, holding a tray with a broken tea bowl on it.
"Throw this away and get a good one."
The maid handed the tray in her hand to one of the little maids and watched her leave. However, she did not go back, but stood outside the door.
"Sister Xiaolu, what are the young ladies talking about inside?"
The maid who hadn't left came over to ask, with a curious look on her face. She thought that even the maids beside the young lady were standing guard at the door. Could it be that the lady who came to visit today said something important? She wanted to find out. If she found out something useful, she could tell the concubines in other courtyards, which would definitely bring her some money.
Xiao Lu glanced at the other party. He said softly: "Is this something you can inquire about? As a servant, you still don't know much about the master's family. Chapter 296: Li's advice, Aunt Yue's tenderness is better, otherwise I don't know why Dead."
The little maid shrank her neck and said a little aggrievedly, "I know. Thank you for reminding me, Sister Xiaolu." Although she said so, she felt that there must be something important. She thought about how much money she could earn if she found out. She wanted to earn enough money as soon as possible to redeem herself and go home!
Seeing that the maid stopped talking, Xiaolu stood aside straight. Her expression was calm, but she was thinking about something. What did Madam Li and the young lady say just now that shocked the lady so much that the usually calm lady even dropped her teacup. This was very rare, but the lady looked very happy, and it seemed that it was good news. Unfortunately, Madam Li was close to the young lady's ear when she spoke, and the voice was so low that only the two of them could hear it. She only heard a little bit, and it seemed that she heard the word "village". With just this one word, how could she guess what the matter was? This was really frustrating.
Outside the house, the maids all had their own little thoughts, and inside the house, they also had a lot of thoughts.
Inside the elegantly decorated room, there were two women sitting. Both were in their twenties. They were well dressed, with gold and silver embellishments on their hair. One was thin, the other plump. They sat opposite each other, and they looked somewhat alike.
The plump one was the young lady of the Zhang family, Zhang Baozhu's principal wife, and the thin one was her cousin Li.
Shang was Zhang Baozhu's principal wife. She was in her twenties, which was the prime age for a woman, but for a man of her time, this age was already not young, especially for a woman without children, this age could be said to be too old!
Shang was very good-looking, with a face like a silver plate, thin eyebrows, big eyes, a straight nose, and a red mouth. She looked dignified, and had a plump figure, with big breasts and a nice butt, but a small waist. She looked very fertile. In fact, it was true. When Mr. Zhang wanted her to be his daughter-in-law, he saw that she looked dignified and could be the head of the family. He also saw that she was in good health and could give birth, so he married her to his son.
But wishing is good, but reality is frustrating. Shang had been married for so many years, but she had no children, not to mention having one. Seeing concubines coming in one after another, she was worried. She was worried that the concubines would give birth to children. Although she could take the children in, how could the adopted children compare with her own children? But she was not a cruel person. Although she felt upset when she saw the concubines, she never took action to punish them. Year after year passed like this. The Zhang family had married more than ten concubines, but still no children.
Now, Shang was also anxious. She thought it couldn’t be Zhang Baozhu’s problem!
If there really is something wrong with Zhang Baozhu, then he won't be able to have children even if he marries a hundred women, so he will have no choice but to adopt.
Shang would rather adopt Zhang Baozhu's son born to a concubine than raise a child from another member of the Zhang family. After all, this was a step too far and the consequences could be very troublesome.
Shang was looking forward to her husband's concubines competing with each other and giving birth to a son or daughter. As for herself, she was almost in despair because she was getting older and older. Although she was not yet thirty, she felt that there was little hope. At this time, someone gave her hope. Not only did they say that the Zhang family might have a son, but that the son might also come from her belly. This was simply a huge surprise. She was so surprised that she couldn't even hold the tea bowl in her hand and dropped it directly to the ground. The tea in it soaked her clothes. Fortunately, the tea was not too hot, so it didn't get burned.
"Cousin! What did you just say? Say it again!"
Shang did not even bother to change her clothes, she grabbed Li's hand and asked with shining eyes. She had clearly heard what Li said just now, but she felt as if she did not hear it clearly. In fact, she just did not dare to believe it. When a person is too disappointed, he is already despairing, so when hope comes again, he feels like a dream, and is afraid that he will become a joke when he wakes up.
Li held Shang's skirt in her hand and shouted, "Look at you! The tea is finally not hot anymore, otherwise you would have burned yourself if you were so impatient! Really, you have been very stable since you were a child, why are you getting more and more troublesome as you grow older? Go change your clothes quickly. Xiao Zi, why don't you help your young mistress get clothes!"
Xiao Zi, who was also helping to carry the clothes, heard Li's words and quickly responded and went to get the clothes.
"Cousin, I'm fine. I won't heat the tea anymore. Please tell me what you just said. What's going on? I'm in a hurry now!"
Shang didn't care at all that her clothes were wet, and she continued to question Li.
Li asked Shang to change her clothes before she would continue. Shang had no choice but to turn around and change her clothes in the inner room, then hurried out.
Li asked Xiao Zi to watch the door to prevent people outside from eavesdropping, so Xiao Zi went.
"Sister, you are so careful. Is this true?"
Shang asked with bright eyes, "My sister had just sent Xiaolu away, and now she asked Xiaozi to stay by the side. She was so careful, it seemed that what she said was true! If that was the case, wouldn't she really get what she wanted? That was really God's blessing!"
Li said softly, "It's not true. Your brother-in-law went with the county magistrate and saw it with his own eyes. He was also curious, so he asked the people in the riverside village. The woman surnamed Zhao is very capable. She has a holy beast and an unshakable water eye at home. She has extraordinary medical skills and the medicines she makes are beyond the reach of ordinary doctors. People say that she can make women who can't have children give birth! If you go to see that woman, you may be able to have a child. Then, won't you be able to have the final say in the Zhang family? Your position will be secure!"
The husband of this Li family was the head of the police beside the county magistrate. When the county magistrate went to Hebian Village, he also went there and saw with his own eyes the scene of Su Zhi saving Hua Pozi. At that time, he thought that the pill in Su Zhi's hand was very extraordinary. Later, he heard the villagers praising Su Zhi, so he asked more about it and found out all the glorious things about Su Zhi.
One of the villagers told a story. Su Zhi once treated a woman. After the treatment, she said that she could cure the disease and that the woman would definitely be able to have a baby. The woman was a hen in the village who was notorious for not laying eggs. When Su Zhi said that, she was immediately happy. Sure enough, within a few months, the woman became pregnant.
When Li's husband heard this, he thought of his sister-in-law. Speaking of which, relatives helped each other. Shang became the Zhang family's daughter-in-law, which was of great benefit to them. The Shang family's status was unstable, and they were anxious. Therefore, they all took this matter to heart. Now that they heard such a magical thing, they naturally cared about it.
Of course, the head of the police wanted to ask in detail, so he found someone to ask. The person he asked admired Su Zhi very much and was also a boastful person. He praised Su Zhi's medical skills to the sky. When the head of the police asked about having children, he said Su Zhi was the goddess of fertility.
The captain went home and told his wife about it. Li was delighted when she heard it and hurried to find her cousin. She hoped that her cousin would find Su Zhi and give birth to a baby quickly. At that time, in the Zhang family who were eager to have a child, wouldn't Shang be a great hero? What about those concubines? What about the famous concubine Yue? !
Li told Shang everything she knew, and holding her hand, she said, "Cousin, do you think the person chosen by the holy beast must be capable? Moreover, she has cured people of their illnesses and helped them get pregnant. You should at least give it a try! Maybe with the blessing of the holy beast, you too can have a child!"
After listening to her cousin's words, Shang sat there with the expression on her face changing rapidly.
"Cousin, why are you still hesitating? Let's give it a try! I think this is an opportunity God has given you! You don't want that little bitch to keep doing this, do you?"
The little bitch that Li was referring to was naturally Jia Yue'er. Although Jia Yue'er had always been gentle and graceful, pitiful and proud in front of others, Li said she didn't like her at all. It might be because Zhang Baozhu liked Jia Yue'er too much, which made her feel that her cousin's status was threatened.
Shang also thought of Jia Yue'er, and her brows wrinkled slightly. To be honest, she didn't like this woman either. She also disliked Zhang Baozhu's other concubines, but she felt that they were no match for her. Even if they gave birth to Zhang's children, they would have to treat her as the mistress, and the children would have to be raised by her. She was the mistress of the Zhang family. So although she felt annoyed by them, she didn't take them too seriously. But Jia Yue'er was different. Zhang Baozhu liked her too much.
Zhang Baozhu likes Jia Yueer so much that he is ready to give her everything that a legitimate wife should have. If Jia Yueer gives birth to another child, no matter it is a boy or a girl, it will definitely become a great contributor to the Zhang family. By then, even if Zhang Baozhu does not divorce his wife and makes Jia Yueer his legitimate wife, he will still give her the status of a co-wife!
Shang was sure that Zhang Baozhu would not give Jia Yue'er's child to her to raise. If Jia Yue'er had a child and raised it by his side, she would become the hidden mistress of the Zhang family, not to mention becoming a co-wife. Even if she was still a concubine, she would become the hidden mistress of the Zhang family! What should Shang do?
"Okay, cousin, I will go meet the lady from the Shen family."
Shang made up her mind. She thought maybe the lady from the Shen family could really give her a child. After all, the lady from the Shen family was so smart and magical. She could come up with so many amazing things, attract holy beasts, cure other women's diseases, and help other women give birth. Maybe she could also give her a child!
Li was delighted and said, "That's right. You go see her first and let her take a look at you. If she can give you a prescription in private, that would be even better. After all, it's best if you can keep it a secret from others. Otherwise, those women will go to her for treatment."
Shang nodded.
That night after Li left, Xiaolu hurriedly went to find the maidservant beside Aunt Yue, saying that she had to go to the bathroom, told her what she had heard, and in return she received a small silver coin, and went back happily.
"You mean, Xiaolu heard the word 'village'?"
Aunt Yue was sitting in front of the mirror at this time. What she liked most was sitting in front of the mirror. It was not that she liked looking at her own appearance very much, but she liked looking at herself wearing pearls, jade, gold and silver on her head. As long as she saw it, she felt happy. This kind of rich life was what she wanted in her dreams. Now that she had it, she naturally loved to look at it, otherwise she would feel that it was like a dream and she would not be able to see it when she woke up.
Xiaohong nodded immediately and said, "That's what Xiaolu said. She and I have a very good relationship, so she definitely wouldn't lie."
Xiao Cui also said, "Yes, Auntie, although Xiao Lu loves money, she never tells lies. She wouldn't dare to lie to you, Auntie."
Jia Yueer smiled at them, her red lips raised like a crescent moon, and her bright eyes narrowed. She looked at them and said softly, "You two don't need to speak well of her. I don't trust her, but I trust you. You are my good maids. If I live a good life, I will not let you live a good life. I know you are all smart girls, so I don't need to say anything more. So I trust you."
"Thank you for your trust, Auntie!"
"We will definitely serve Auntie well!"
Xiaohong and Xiaocui hurriedly said that when they looked at Aunt Yue's face, which was not extremely beautiful but seductive, and listened to the sweet words uttered by her gentle voice, they felt extremely grateful. They thought Aunt Yue was such a good person and was so kind to them, the maids. No wonder the young master fell in love with her. She was indeed a woman worthy of being loved.
The two maids became even more loyal to Jia Yue'er, thinking that since Jia Yue'er had a position in the Zhang family, they would also have a position in the future. Even if they were servants at that time, they would be servants with status. They might even be able to escape slavery and become free people! The two were very happy.
Jia Yue'er looked at the looks of the two maids and smiled complacently in her heart, thinking that it was too easy to win over the two maids with just a few nice words.
After a year of hard work, Jia Yue'er has established a firm foothold in the Zhang family. Although she is only a concubine, she has a very high status because she is favored and kind to others. The servants all fawn on her and like her. I believe that if she is promoted to be a lady by Zhang Baozhu in the future, no one will be disgusted.
"You two go help me clean up the bath water. Don't put flower petals in it today."
Jia Yue'er gave the order and watched the two maids leave. She sat there alone, looking at herself in the mirror. She really didn't want to take off the gold, silver, pearls and jade on it. In the end, she still left a gold hairpin on it, and then inserted a rose that the maid had just picked in her hair. After taking a closer look, she thought she was really charming, and then she left in front of the mirror with a satisfied smile.
The bath water was quickly prepared. Jia Yueer soaked in the warm water. Seeing that there were no petals in it, she frowned, but soon relaxed her brows. She began to slowly stir up the water, playing with the water while thinking about her worries.
"Village? The village of villages, right? What did Li say to Shang? It made Shang smash all his tea bowls. There is a word "village" in these words, so it must be referring to a certain village, right? But what's so strange about a village? Could it be that something good or a treasure happened in a village?"
Jia Yue'er thought, she had high aspirations, she was never satisfied with being the fourteenth concubine of the Zhang family, she wanted to be the main wife, but being the main wife was not enough with Zhang Baozhu's favor, she also needed a child, but Zhang Baozhu could not give her a child, no matter how anxious she was, it was useless. At this time, she could only make plans while living, but she didn't want to live like this for too long, because she was afraid that Zhang Baozhu would lose interest in her, and then he would marry another concubine. Even if she was sure to catch his eye, she would be afraid of the worst. And she couldn't tolerate others laughing at her!
She must keep this wealthy life, and there cannot be any possibility that someone else will snatch it away.
"We must be careful of Shang's plans..."
Jia Yue'er thought that Shang was the wife and a smart woman. Although she didn't cause trouble for her, she didn't like her. Shang would never give up her position to Jia Yue'er, so Jia Yue'er could only fight for it herself. Now, she hadn't reached the time to take action yet, so she could only be on guard against Shang taking action.
Jia Yue'er actually sometimes hoped that Shang would take action, so that once she found out, she could instigate Zhang Baozhu to divorce Shang and she could be promoted. Unfortunately, this kind of thing was not easy to happen, because Shang was too stable and not vicious enough. She wanted to frame him, but she didn't find a good opportunity. She wondered what this time was, if only she knew, it would be great if Shang wanted to harm her.
"My dear, you smell so good..."
Zhang Baozhu suddenly stretched out his hand from behind and placed it on Jia Yueer's smooth shoulder, then put his nose on her neck and sniffed hard, smelling the light scent of powder and flowers.
Jia Yue'er was so absorbed in her thoughts that she didn't hear Zhang Baozhu come in. She was startled and covered her heart with her hands. She turned around and glanced at Zhang Baozhu coquettishly, saying, "Grandpa, you scared me!"
Zhang Baozhu looked at Jia Yue'er's charming face, laughed, kissed her and said, "Are you scared? What scared you? Tell me, I will calm you down."
Jia Yue'er patted Zhang Baozhu's hand that was moving towards her chest. Her movements were very light and very seductive.
Zhang Baozhu and Jia Yueer joked for a while and said, "What are you thinking about? You didn't even hear me coming, and you're scared?"
Jia Yueer touched her hair and said, "I'm thinking about Grandpa. I think about how good he is to me."
Zhang Baozhu laughed again after hearing this. He liked Jia Yueer's eloquence. It was a great enjoyment in life to have such a woman who was as eloquent as a flower and said nice things to him at the end of the day, not to mention that she was a woman he liked.
"I miss the moon, too. I miss how beautiful and fragrant my moon is."
"Master, I don't smell good today. I don't have any petals today!"
Zhang Baozhu saw that there were indeed no petals, and said, "Why don't you use the petals? It's good for your skin. We have money at home, so we can't do without some petals from you. Don't save them for me."
Jia Yueer said softly, "Grandpa, this year's drought has affected every household. Many families can't even eat. We are a wealthy family, so we are not afraid, but we must have suffered losses, right? I don't have the ability to help you, but I want to help you save some money! The weather is hot, so there must be fewer flowers in bloom, so I will use less."
Zhang Baozhu was deeply touched when he heard this. He thought that his aunt was really considerate and knew how to save money for him. She was not like the other concubines at all. Those concubines only knew how to ask for favors from him. They were so vulgar! His Yue'er was still the best.
Zhang Baozhu thought to himself that he would have to be better to the person in his heart in the future. This was the fairy sent to him by God! rs!!!
