Jiujiu coughed softly and said, "Get up, Mammy Li. In the future, I need your advice about my yard."
"Thank you for your appreciation, Miss. I'll do anything for you until I die."
After finishing her words, Mammy Li got up decisively.
Seeing that Jiujiu had met Mammy Li, Marquis Su was relieved. He patted Jiujiu on the shoulder, told her to have a good rest, and then left.
After Marquis Su left, Jiujiu looked at Mammy Li carefully.
Mammy Li was wearing a dark lined jacket, and her hair was combed to the back of her head. Her eyes were firm, and it was obvious that she was a well-behaved person.
"Please help me up, Mammy Li."
Hearing Jiujiu's order, Mammy Li hurried to Jiujiu's side. After helping Jiujiu up, she put a soft pillow behind Jiujiu's waist and adjusted the height to make Jiujiu more comfortable. Then she stepped back to the bed and suggested, "Miss, you just woke up. Do you want to eat something before you sleep?"
Jiujiu had slept for a day and a night, and her stomach was already empty.
Jiujiu nodded, "Then I'll eat something."
With Jiujiu's affirmation, Mammy Li said again, "Miss, you have just recovered from a serious illness. It's better to eat something light. How about shredded chicken porridge with light side dishes?"
"It's all up to you."
Jiujiu had just recovered from a serious illness, and she was weak all over. After talking with Mammy Li for a while, she felt sore all over. At this moment, after giving the order, she immediately closed her eyes to rest.
Mammy Li left very obediently.
After a while, Mammy Li served the fragrant and sticky shredded chicken porridge and the crisp and refreshing side dishes.
At the same time, Mammy Li also brought back a message.
Previously, the nanny who served Qingcheng asked her to pass on a message, saying that she wanted to see Jiujiu.
Although Marquis Su was angry, no matter what, the nanny was Qingcheng's wet nurse. She had stayed by Qingcheng's side when Qingcheng was still a baby. Even if her negligence caused Qingcheng to fall seriously ill, if he really left her to fend for herself in the woodshed, it was hard to guarantee that Qingcheng would be dissatisfied when she woke up.
Marquis Su still wanted to rely on Jiujiu for promotion and wealth in the future. He could not afford to offend Jiujiu at this time.
Therefore, even though she was extremely annoyed with the nanny, she still sent the nanny to the woodshed the next day and invited a doctor to treat her.
In this situation, if it was someone else, they might have completely recognized their own problems and turned over a new leaf.
As for the nanny who took care of Qingcheng, she didn't know if it was because she had heard too much about Qingcheng being a favored concubine from Marquis Su or because she had brainwashed herself too thoroughly.
On the first night when she was thrown into the woodshed, she indeed cried bitterly and swore that as long as she could get out, she would definitely turn over a new leaf and serve her master well.
But when she was released by Marquis Su the next day and even asked a doctor to treat her, the little illusion in her heart began to cause trouble again. Soon, she brainwashed herself to be the wet nurse of a favored concubine and half a mother-in-law of the Emperor.
When she thought that she was the mother-in-law of the Emperor, her smashed buttocks didn't seem to hurt anymore. Instead, it was replaced by anger in her heart.
She was half a mother-in-law of the Emperor. Marquis Su was so bold that he even dared to hit her.
Moreover, not only did Nanny bear a grudge against Marquis Su, she also bore a grudge against Jiujiu.
Why didn't you faint earlier or later? Why did you faint in front of everyone when you got off the carriage? Wasn't it obvious that you wanted to make her look bad?
When she thought that her buttocks had been hit 20 times because of Jiujiu's fainting, the nanny couldn't wait to pull Jiujiu over and hit 20 times as well.
The nanny had been recuperating for a day. When she heard the servant say that Jiujiu had woken up, her mind immediately became active. She hurriedly sent someone to find Nanny Li and asked Nanny Li to pass the message that she wanted to see Jiujiu.
When she heard the servant pass the message that the nanny wanted to see Jiujiu, Nanny Li almost said, "How dare you!"
Not to mention that Jiujiu was going to be a favored concubine, even now, Jiujiu was the legitimate Miss of the Marquis's Mansion.
A wet nurse.
The master gave you face and treated you as half a master. If he didn't give you face, you would be trampled on by others.
Nanny Li had heard before that the wet nurse of Miss Qingcheng was even more arrogant than the master, but she didn't take it seriously at that time.
After all, she was just a servant. No matter how arrogant she was, most of it was just a rumor spread by the servants.
Seeing was better than hearing a hundred times. At this moment, she heard the words.
Only then did Mammy Li realize that this wet nurse was much more powerful than what she had heard in the rumors.
A servant just wanted to see the master. The master was really easy to talk to. She really thought of herself as a big shot.
Although Nanny Li had just met Jiujiu, she felt that Jiujiu was a little better than the old lady she had served before. She couldn't help speaking her mind. "Miss."
Jiujiu was eating with the servant girls. Suddenly, she heard Nanny Li calling her. She raised her hand to signal the servant girls to feed her later. Looking at Nanny Li's hesitant expression, she said, "Nanny Li, just say it."
Nanny Li said, "Since you allow it, I'd like to say it.
Since ancient times, I've heard that it was the master who called the servant, but I've never heard that the servant wanted to see the master.
I know that the wet nurse is the master's wet nurse. The master has always been kind and respected her. However, a servant is a servant. No matter what her identity was before, she is a servant after all.
The most important task for a servant is to take good care of the master.
In my opinion, the wet nurse went out with the master and made the master come back with a serious illness. It was a dereliction of duty. When Master Hou questioned her, she was shouting at Master Hou. She didn't follow the rules.
She's just a servant who can't take good care of her master and doesn't know her place. Only Young Miss and Marquis are kind enough to keep such a servant. If she was in someone else's house, she would have been beaten and sold. "
See?
It was such a simple truth. Any wet nurse could see it, but Qingcheng couldn't.
In the end, the Su Family didn't suffer a loss.
Jiujiu looked at Nanny Li with appreciation, "Nanny Li, aren't you afraid that I'll be angry?"
After all, on the surface, that granny was Jiujiu's wet nurse. She had taken care of Jiujiu since she was a child. The relationship between the two of them was not something that an ordinary person could compare to.
Mammy Li knelt on the ground and kowtowed, "Miss, of course I'm scared. That wet nurse has been serving you since you were a child. Naturally, I can't compare with the affection between the two of you.
However, compared with your anger, I'm more afraid that you will be deceived by that wicked person. "
Nanny Li said, "Miss, you are the master. Maybe you don't know the dirty things between servants. I was sold to the Lord Protector's Manor when I was a child. I've been used to the intrigue of servants in the Lord Protector's Manor since I was a child. Therefore, I know better than you that a man's heart is never content.
