Chapter 675 Housemaid

At dawn the next day, Hui Niang and her husband got up early. Their daughter finally came back and they wanted to cook a decent meal for her.

Lianyi didn't want to wrong herself, so she didn't get dressed until she woke up naturally. She was wearing old gray clothes that Hui Niang had remade. Even so, she couldn't hide the girl's well-developed figure, but she was just too thin.

"Lianyi, get up and have breakfast!"

Hui Niang called from the bedroom door.

"Mom, I'm already up."

Ripple had already put on her clothes quickly, folded the quilt, moved the curtain aside, took her own wash cloth and left the bedroom.

When she came outside the yard, Lianyi stretched out and breathed in the fresh air. She suddenly raised her brows. She actually sensed scattered spiritual energy light spots in the air. Although they were few and far between, they were real and were present. He tried his best to get closer to her, and then slowly integrated into her body.

Now was not the time to sense spiritual power, so she washed her face quickly, brushed her teeth with a willow branch, and then sat at the dinner table.

Today the family had a rare gathering together. The dinner table was set in the kitchen. Each person had a steamed bun, a bowl of millet porridge, a stir-fried green vegetable and a portion of pickles. It was much richer than usual.

Huzi was held in Hui Niang's arms, and was eating millet paste with his little mouth. When he saw Lianyi coming, he showed a shy smile, opened his mouth and called sister, and Lianyi also smiled and narrowed his eyes, responding crisply. Got off.

"Huzi was happy to see you. He didn't scream when he wanted to pee today, he just grunted twice."

Hui Niang said with a smile while feeding Hu Zi.

"That's because my brother feels sorry for me and wants me to sleep soundly."

Lianyi smiled and picked up the dark buckwheat bun on the table, took a sip of millet porridge, a bite of fried vegetables and a bite of the bun. She finished her breakfast in a quarter of an hour, and Hui Niang gave her another boiled egg. eat.

"Keep this for my brother."

Lianyi said according to the original habit.

"There are tiger cubs, you eat yours."

Hui Niang said directly.

Lianyi cracked the egg shell, split the egg into two, and without saying anything, put half into Huiniang's mouth and half into Song Dachuan's mouth.

"You child"

Both complained.

"Father and mother, you eat. Although I work hard in the Dong family, I can still eat one egg a day."

Because Miss Dong Er dislikes the fishy smell of eggs, she refuses to eat them. However, the breakfast in the house is set. In order to help her grow, she has one egg a day. Boiled, poached, fried, and egg custard are all included in the original meal. body belly.

After breakfast, Lianyi quickly cleared the table, refreshed the dishes and put them in the cupboard, and then she and her family sat in the main room again.

"Lianyi, about being a dowry maid for Miss Dong's family."

After Hui Niang put Hu Zi to sleep, she mentioned what her daughter said yesterday, but she didn't know how to persuade him.

"Mom, I heard everything you and dad said last night."

Ripple said simply.

"What do you mean?"

"I listen to my parents and I don't want to be a dowry maid. I will come home when the time comes."

Ripple said directly.

"Okay, come back! Our family is in order."

Hui Niang said quickly.

"Mom and Dad, actually I didn't want to be a dowry maid. I secretly heard the nanny in the house say that the young lady is marrying high, and she has to look at other people's faces when she enters the door. It's incomparable to what she did at home.

Young ladies have to be cautious, and those of us who are servants are even more difficult to become servants. After all, we are not familiar with the situation.

I was willing because the money given by the government could buy land for my family and provide medical treatment for my younger brother. I thought you were also willing, so I thought it didn't matter where I went with Miss Dong Er. "

"Lianyi, it's because your father and mother are incompetent that you shoulder the burden of supporting the family at a young age. The situation at home has gotten better in the past two years, and we have more money. In fact, your father and I are looking forward to your return. Just a simple meal at home”

"Mom, look what you said, simple meals are also the taste of home. It's better than looking at people's faces."

Ripple said nonchalantly.

"Lianyi, if you don't want to be a dowry maid, will the master's family make things difficult for you?"

Song Dachuan, who had been silent, asked directly. This was what he was worried about.

"Dad, you really got the point right. The second lady of the Dong family is not as generous as she seems. She had other motives for asking me to be a dowry maid."

Lianyi lowered his eyes and said.

"She's a young lady, what's her plan?"

Hui Niang asked nervously.

"She kept me because she wanted me to be a maid in the house, and she also planned to let me be her future husband's concubine."

Ripple didn't hide anything and told the truth directly. At the same time, he was still observing the two people's reactions from the corner of his eyes.

Hui Niang's face turned pale, and Song Dachuan stood up directly, raising his voice for the first time and saying:

"I don't agree! Our daughters from good families don't want to be concubines!"

"Yes! Lianyi, don't be tempted by this. You would rather be a poor man's wife than a rich man's concubine."

Lianyi expressed that she was very satisfied with the two people's reactions, but she still asked Song Dachuan:

"Dad, is there anything special about this?"

"I did some work in the town, and also went into the courtyards of rich people's homes. I encountered the mistresses selling concubines. Those concubines were not even as good as us country folk. I heard that the mistresses didn't like them. They were all sold to the brothels and had no good ending.

The second young lady of the Dong family is marrying into a high family. She will not treat her concubine as a human being because of her high family status. You will only be a tool in her hands. "

Song Dachuan sat down again and sighed.

Lianyi felt that Song Dachuan had not been hanging out in the town in vain, and at least he had some knowledge.

"When dad said this, I understood. In fact, when the ladies around me persuaded me, I felt that although their words were beautiful, they looked at me with strange eyes. Now after listening to dad, I understand. .”

"You said that Miss Dong is not a kind person, so how do you reject her?"

This is what Song Dachuan is worried about. They don't dare to go against the Dong family.

"Dad, I will find a solution for this matter, but I won't be able to come back for at least a month or two. And if anyone asks about me, you have to say that Miss Dong values ​​​​me and asks me to be her personal bodyguard." Maid, we have renewed the contract, I will think of the rest."

Ripple said with a smile.

"Lianyi, are you sure? If not, dad should ask Miss Dong! After all, you signed a living contract, and they can't force you to stay."

Song Dachuan still said with the last glimmer of hope.

"Dad, if the Dong family were reasonable, I wouldn't have to worry so much about planning for myself. I will find a way to escape unscathed anyway. You don't have to worry about anything else. Even if you hear something, don't believe it. Everything is waiting for me to come back. "

Lianyi urged again and again.

"Dad, I know. We can't help you, and we won't hold you back."

Song Dachuan finally sighed.

Ripple stayed at home for three days, cultivating a relationship with her family. Early on the fourth day, she carried a small bundle and returned to Dong's Mansion in the town by bullock cart.

See you tomorrow, babies~
