Bing Tang and Ji Yun had been watching Pang Xiao's performance in silence. They saw Fu Xue's performance clearly and were annoyed.
After receiving the order, the two naturally didn't bother to make arrangements. They had seen too many people like Fu Xue who wanted to climb up the social ladder. Maybe the young master of the Lu Family sold her because of this.
Bing Tang said angrily, "Come with me."
Fu Xue hadn't recovered her attention from the young master. Hearing the voice, she reluctantly looked over. The two maidservants in front of her, one tall and the other short, were nearly 20 years old, and their skin was dark. No matter how beautiful their facial features were, they didn't look good on such dull faces. Fu Xue had a plan in her mind.
Fu Xue smiled and saluted to the two, "Hello, sisters. May I know how to address you?"
Bing Tang said, "You flatter me. I'm Little Hong, and that's Little Green. We serve Mrs. Ning. Come with me."
She turned around and walked to the servant's room at the back of the boat.
Fu Xue didn't expect that Little Red and Little Green were so unfriendly. On second thought, Mrs. Ning named her personal maid so crudely. She thought that Mrs. Ning must be illiterate and only had a beautiful face. Such a woman was just comfortable to look at for a while.
Her opponent was such a person. Fu Xue's confidence that had been hit just now came back.
When they arrived at the servant's room, Bing Tang arranged a room for her in the corner, the same room as the cook.
Fu Xue looked at the narrow cabin and was dissatisfied.
But she didn't dare to say more. There was a narrow bed on both sides of the room, a corridor in the middle, and a small flat window facing the door. If she didn't listen, she couldn't even hide her fart. How could she live here?
"Well? Are you not satisfied? " Bing Tang curled her lips and said, "Remember your identity. You were bought by my young master to do manual labor. You can only live in such a cabin. There are few rooms on the gaily-painting boat. This is good enough. Otherwise, I'll arrange a bed for you. Do you want to go?"
Fu Xue hurriedly shook her head and waved her hands. "Sister Xiao Hong, please don't be angry. How would I dare to be dissatisfied? I will listen to Sister's orders."
Bing Tang glared at her and turned to go out, leaving Fu Xue sitting on the edge of the bed sulking.
Back in the cabin, Ji Yun couldn't hold back her laughter. She pinched Bing Tang's face and said, "Little Red, Little Green? This name of yours is too casual. Aren't you afraid that those ignorant people will doubt Master's ability to name things? "
"You didn't see her eyes. The moment she saw Wang … Young Master, it was as if she had eaten bee shit! She couldn't wait to hang her eyes on the young master and looked down on Mrs. Ning. Who was she? Did she deserve to be married? Bah! "
Ji Yun was calmer than Bing Tang and said, "But Master also calls us by our real names outside. It's not good for that girl to know. Although she has the intention of seducing Young Master, it's her fault, but we can't act on our own and ruin Master's plans. "
Bing Tang took a few deep breaths and said, "I know. It's okay. The people on the ship are all Young Master's people. Later, let Huzi give the order and we will tell Master. Even if she knows that I lied to her, it's okay. At most, she will misunderstand that I didn't care about her and deliberately coax her. "
Ji Yun thought about it and said, "That's right. Anyway, she is under our eyes. She can't do anything."
The two returned to the cabin and went to meet Pang Xiao and Qin Yining.
Qin Yining couldn't help laughing when he heard it, "I know. I will be careful in front of her in the future. But this is also good. You can deliberately give her some information in the future. For example, I am a skinny horse that Master bought outside and became a concubine. The old lady at home doesn't like me and has already discussed the matter of Young Master's second wife."
Pang Xiao pinched Qin Yining's face and said, "Don't talk nonsense. What second wife! Hurry up and take a few bites. Stop talking nonsense! "
Qin Yining covered his face and laughed, "This is also nonsense. I am just testing his character. I think this woman is not a well-behaved person. If she can still be well-behaved after giving her some information, I will make good arrangements for the rest of her life so that she will not have to worry about food and clothing. "
The few of them understood Qin Yining's unfinished words.
If this woman did something overboard, then she could only bear the consequences and couldn't blame anyone.
Bing Tang thought for a while and said, "That's good too. Since I've already played the role of the good guy, I'll let Yuanyun play the role of the good guy. "
Ji Yun smiled and glared at Bing Tang. "You really know how to do it. You annoy her, but don't I annoy her?"
Bing Tang chuckled and said, "Good sister, who asked you to be more mature than me? You are the most suitable to play the good cop."
Qin Yining and Pang Xiao laughed as they watched from the side.
After Ji Yun and Bing Tang left, Qin Yining turned to Pang Xiao and said, "What do you plan to do next?"
Pang Xiao chuckled and leaned close to Qin Yining to bite her lips. "Haven't you already thought of it? Why are you still asking me?"
Qin Yining blushed at his actions and pushed him away. "Stop fooling around. We are talking about serious matters."
"What can be more serious than this?" Pang Xiao scooped Qin Yining up with his big hands and strode towards the bedroom.
Even if Qin Yining had thousands of calculations in her mind, she couldn't care less at the moment.
The next morning, before dawn, there was a layer of fog on the surface of the Jade Green Lake. Not to mention the boats in the distance, even the nearby shore couldn't be seen clearly.
Fu Xue hadn't slept enough when she was called to help in the kitchen by the cook in the same room. She had been in the Lu family since she was young. Although she wasn't the child of a servant, she was beautiful and eloquent. She hadn't suffered much since she was young. When she was older, she became a third-rank servant and became the head servant of the eldest young master's study.
Who would look at her? She had never done such rough chores as chopping firewood and picking vegetables. Her hands were as delicate as those of a young miss. She was slow at chores and was despised by the cook.
When it came to meals, she had to hold a bowl and stand by the stove to eat. What she ate was the leftovers that were going to be thrown away by her masters.
This was simply not a life for humans!
Fu Xue was depressed. She didn't want to suffer, so she had to climb up. She began to worm her way into being friends with the cook and others to find out more about the eldest young master's family.
However, these people were personally selected by Huzi. They were the most reliable ones. Their mouths were as tight as clamshells and they were unwilling to reveal anything.
Fu Xue worked for half a day, but there was no progress at all.
In the afternoon, she saw Little Green, the servant of Mrs. Ning, come.
"Sister Little Green, why are you here? Do you have any orders from the master? "
Ji Yun smiled kindly and said, "Yes, the eldest young master said that he wanted to take Mrs. Ning out for a walk, but Mrs. Ning said that there was nothing fun to do outside. The master stayed on the boat today. Mrs. Ning wanted to eat some snacks and buy some things, so she asked me to go. I thought that since you are a local, it would be good to take you out."
Ji Yun winked and whispered, "Go out for a walk and relax. Don't be bored on the boat. It's boring."
Fu Xue was secretly happy. It seemed that Little Green and Little Hong didn't get along well.
"Yes, thank you for taking care of me, Sister Little Green." Fu Xue agreed with a smile.
The temperature in Danzhou City in September was good. The afternoon sun was just right and it was very comfortable to shine on people.
Ji Yun and Fu Xue walked side by side on the street. Ji Yun was like countless young girls who came to Danzhou City for the first time. Everything she saw was new to her.
Fu Xue seized the opportunity and introduced Ji Yun with a glib tongue. She tried her best to make Ji Yun happy. The relationship between the two was suddenly much closer.
Ji Yun saw the opportunity and said with a smile, "Your former master was also from a big family, right?"
"Yes. The Lu family of Danzhou City is a century-old prominent family. "Fu Xue's tone was not without pride.
Ji Yun said with a smile, "Our Wan family is also a big family. We do business and develop in all kinds of fields."
Fu Xue sneered in her heart. What Wan family? She had never heard of it. It was just an ordinary business family.
But on the surface, she sighed with emotion, "So powerful! The master of the Wan family must be very powerful. "
"Yes." Ji Yun saw that she took the bait and began to talk nonsense, "Our master is very good at doing business. It is said that he has many friends in the imperial court. Eldest young master is the master's favorite and is the eldest son of the first wife. In the future, the family business will be passed to our eldest young master …
"Eldest young master is good in everything, but eldest young madam has a hard life. She died early without leaving a son or a daughter. Before we came out, the master and madam were arranging for the eldest young master to remarry."
Fu Xue's heart skipped a beat. So that person was going to remarry!
She was trembling with excitement. After a while, she said, "What about Mrs. Ning? I see that the eldest young master dotes on Mrs. Ning very much. If the eldest young master remarries, Mrs. Ning must be the first choice, right? "
Ji Yun said, "She …"
Seeing that she seemed to have something to say, Fu Xue held Ji Yun's arm and begged, "Sister Xiao Lu, please tell me. I just came to the manor and know nothing about it. I am afraid that I will go the wrong way in the future. Don't worry. I will never let a third person know what you said. "
Qi Yun frowned and said in a low voice, "Originally, we servants shouldn't say this, but I see that you and I hit it off very well. Forget it, I'll tell you, but you can't say it out loud."
Fu Xue nodded quickly, "Sister, don't worry."
Ji Yun said slowly.
"Mrs. Ning is actually a thin horse given to the young master by his friend. The master and madam will choose a wife for the young master's second wife. Naturally, they will choose a wife of equal social status. At least, she must have a clean background. Although Mrs. Ning is beautiful, she may not be qualified. "
"What about the young master? The eldest young master likes Mrs. Ning.
But the master and madam love their son very much. So, they must agree. "
"Well, you don't know. For a big family like the Wan Family, the superiors are too lazy to care about concubines and tongfang. But the madam of the clan won't mess around. I don't think Mrs. Ning has much chance. But the eldest young master really dotes on Mrs. Ning now. Mrs. Ning will definitely be a concubine in the future. "
Fu Xue was happy in her heart. It turned out that Mrs. Ning didn't even have the chance to be a concubine. No wonder they all called her wife instead of concubine.
