Chapter 279 Selling Twin Lotuses

Shuanglian really did come back with Yu Sanbao - well, it couldn't be said that they came back together, because Yu Sanbao rode his horse fast, so she trotted all the way, trying to enter the Yu family's door just behind Yu Sanbao.

Mrs. Wei stood at the entrance to the main courtyard behind the screen wall, watching coldly.

Yu Sanbao was stunned for a moment, then called out "mother".

Mrs. Wei nodded to Yu Sanbao and said, "Go and do your thing."

Yu Sanbao responded and led the horse to the stable in the backyard.

Shuanglian obviously heard the voice of Mrs. Wei from behind. She walked around the screen wall reluctantly, lowered her head and called out "Old Madam". She explained in a somewhat obvious way: "...I just wanted to go out to the village to buy some things, and I happened to meet the Third Master..."

Mrs. Wei looked at Shuanglian for a while and said calmly, "Shuanglian, come with me."

Shuanglian felt a little guilty, but not much.

She knew that although the old lady could be harsh at times, she was kind-hearted and would not punish her.

Shuanglian followed Mrs. Wei to the main house without any psychological burden.

As a result, Mrs. Wei said, "Shuanglian, pack up tomorrow, and I will ask Sanbao to take you to the human trafficking shop in the county. Don't worry, I will find a reliable human trafficker for you, and I will not sell you to such a place."

Shuanglian was so shocked by these words that her face turned pale. She knelt down immediately and said anxiously, "Madam, have I done anything wrong? Why are you chasing me away?"

Mrs. Wei stared at Shuanglian: "Don't you know what you did?"

Shuanglian's heart skipped a beat, and she anxiously and helplessly argued: "...Madam, are you talking about why I'm going out today? I wanted to go shopping..."

Seeing that Shuanglian was still trying to make excuses at this point, Mrs. Wei lost all her last bit of sympathy.

She looked at Shuanglian coldly: "Buying things? You spent half an hour shopping, and all you bought was the piece of tofu you were holding?"

Shuanglian was speechless.

"This is not the first time." Mrs. Wei recalled the incident when Shuanglian disappeared and Xingxing almost got burned while pouring hot water. She became even more furious and didn't want to save Shuanglian's face. "I'll tell you the truth. Other things are fine, but there's just one thing. We in the Yu family cannot tolerate a maid who has other ideas about you!"

Shuanglian's body was shaken!

Mrs. Wei's words were like stripping off her clothes, exposing her secret thoughts to the public, exposing them under the scorching sun for everyone to see clearly!

At this point, Shuang Lianzhang blushed and said excitedly: "... Madam, if the Third Madam can do it, why can't I?... I have a clean family background and I am efficient at work. I will never serve the Third Master like the Third Madam does, who always gives the Third Master the cold shoulder..."

Mrs. Wei showed a look of disgust on her face and shouted, "That's enough! No matter what, the third son's wife is still the daughter-in-law of my Yu family who was married to me through formal matchmaking! She is not like you, shamelessly trying to seduce other people's men! ... There is no need to say anything else. Tomorrow I will let the third son send you to the pawnbroker!"

Mrs. Wei's obvious disgust made Shuanglian sway again and again.

Mrs. Wei did not give her any chance at all, and just looked at her coldly: "Shuanglian, I have never treated you badly since I bought you in. I heard that people in the county all give monthly wages to their maids, so I also give you monthly wages, and I also let you take a day off every month... I ask myself, I have a clear conscience towards you. What about you? I bought the maids back to make my daughters-in-law live more comfortably, not to make you a troublemaker."

"Go back and pack your things, and we'll part ways in peace."

Shuanglian seemed to be stung and broke down crying: "... Old Madam, I, I know I was wrong, please don't send me away, I will never do this again in the future..."

However, at this point, Shuanglian's crying would be of no avail.

The next day, Mrs. Wei asked Yu Sanbao to send Shuanglian to the county's dental clinic.

On the way, Shuanglian wanted to take off her clothes and crawl into Yu Sanbao's arms, crying and saying that she was willing to serve Yu Sanbao. Yu Sanbao tied Shuanglian up tightly without any hesitation, stuffed a handkerchief in her mouth, and sent her directly to the pawnshop, where he sold her at the same price as when he bought her back.

But at this moment, Shuangyun was helping in the third room, while Mrs. Wei and the others in the main courtyard were without a maid to help them.

Yu Sanbao then bought another maid who looked honest and quiet but was very skillful.

I heard that the girl had given birth to a pair of boys and could not afford to support them, so she sold her eldest daughter to earn some money for the New Year.

Yu Sanbao took her back, and Mrs. Wei was very fond of her. She thought that this maid was an honest person and very much to her liking, so she named her Shuangxi.

Nanny Xia quickly gave a lecture to the couples of the Yu family, telling them that although the Yu family was the most generous, they still had to follow rules. If they violated the rules and still refused to change, they would not be blamed for being rude.

When the time comes to sell it, it is hard to say where it will be sold to and what kind of owner it will meet.

The couple took it as a warning and dared not have any other thoughts.

…

Two days later, the Zhao family held a funeral for Zhao Youcai and buried him in the back mountain.

Many families in Nantuo Village are buried there. A fortune teller said that it is a blessed land. If it is used as a yang house, the family will be safe and prosperous. If it is used as a yin house, it can protect descendants and make them rich and powerful.

When the thin coffin was put into the pit and filled with soil, Zhao Meng's mother, Pan, cried bitterly. The scene and the emotion moved many villagers who came to help with the funeral. They felt that although Zhao Youcai was a worthless person, Pan was really loyal to him and was a loyal and good woman.

Zhao Meng also cried bitterly, but fortunately he was still young, and Zhao Youcai usually beat and scolded him and his mother, so he was upset for a few days, but it passed.

Ju Ge'er treated Zhao Meng better because he lost his father.

Usually, if there was something delicious, Ju Ge'er would give it to Xing Xing first, and then he would share the rest with Zhao Meng.

Sometimes, Brother Ju even invited Zhao Mengqiang to stay for dinner.

Zhao Meng's mother, Mrs. Pan, was naturally very embarrassed and did not want to take advantage of the Yu family, so she brought over half a basket of eggs and two fish.

Mrs. Wei refused to accept him, so Mrs. Pan insisted, "If you don't accept him, I won't be able to let Ah Meng take Ju Ge'er's food. They play together, and it's not good for one to suffer the other. Although our family's conditions cannot compare, we must still give something within our ability."

Pan looked at Mrs. Wei with an earnest expression: "...Ju Ge'er saved A Meng before, A Meng likes Ju Ge'er very much, and I also want them to stay together for a long time."

Mrs. Wei felt that ever since Zhao Youcai was gone, Mrs. Pan seemed like a different person and lived a more transparent life.

Mrs. Wei no longer refused and accepted the eggs and fish. She would force Amon to stay for a meal every now and then.

Through these interactions, Zhao Meng and Ju Ge'er became closer and closer, and the two brothers were as close as if they were wearing the same pair of pants.
