Because there was something to do in the yamen the next day, Yao Chengcai took Yaoniang to Aunt Wang's house after a day.
Afraid that this would fail, and also to let Aunt Wang speak well from the middle, Yao Cheng specially prepared four kinds of fruits and planned to take them to Wang's house.
These four kinds of fruits are all fashionable items in Taoyuanzhai, and the price is not cheap. Anyway, with Yao's family background, they have never bought such expensive fruits to eat by themselves. In order to find a good place for his sister-in-law, Yao Cheng also took great pains.
Early in the morning, Yao Cheng drove Yaoniang to Wang's house in a mule cart that he borrowed from someone.
Wang's house is in Liushu Alley, some distance away from Yao's house. Yao Cheng knew that Yaoniang was going to take Xiaobao and would not be able to sleep much at night, so he asked her to close her eyes for a while, and called her when the time came.
Yaoniang closed her eyes obediently, but she couldn't sleep at this moment, her mind was full of some things that happened in Jinwang's mansion in her previous life.
The Wang family is also a generation of officials. Father Wang was injured when he was a policeman in his early years, so when his son Daniel became an adult, he gave up his position to his son. The Wang family has a son who is a policeman, and Aunt Wang is also good at helping people deliver babies, so they live a very prosperous life.
Halfway into the house, the big tile house with blue bricks and black tiles, the front of the door is clean, one can tell at a glance that the mistress of the family is hardworking.
As soon as he stepped into the gate of Wang's house, he saw a carriage parked in the yard.
Horse-drawn carriages are a rarity for ordinary people. Even if an ordinary person buys a car at home, it is a donkey cart or a mule cart. Horses are expensive, and a horse must be dozens of taels larger, and they must be raised with good materials.
Just by looking at this carriage, one can tell that Aunt Wang's sister must be decent in the palace.
But Yaoniang knew that Liu's mother was actually just an inconspicuous woman in Jin Wang's mansion.
Because she was immersed in self-pity and self-pity in her previous life, Yaoniang couldn't remember how she was attracted by Liu's mother when she came to Wang's house. This time, because of her different mentality, she was in the mood to observe the situation around her.
It was her brother-in-law Yao Cheng who entered the house while she was standing in the yard waiting.
Inexplicably, there was a feeling that someone was watching her.
In fact, Mother Liu didn't take what her sister Aunt Wang said to heart.
From her point of view, what kind of outstanding talents can this remote Linyun County have. You must know that the nanny she is looking for is not an ordinary nanny. It's just that it's not easy to say this in front of her sister, and seeing her sister so attentively speaking for the other party, she just wanted to just take a look, so it's time to find an excuse to perfunctory.
So when Yao Cheng came in to talk to Aunt Wang, she didn't even give him a straight look.
Until she saw the girl standing in the yard—
Say it's a girl, it doesn't feel like it, but it's still dressed like a girl.
Mother Liu is an experienced person, so she naturally knows the difference between a young girl and a woman. No matter how beautiful a girl is, she is reserved and restrained. The shoulders are tucked, the eyebrows are not opened, the waist is thin but stiff, the hips are pulled inward, and the two legs are timidly brought together in one place, tightly seamed.
Even the pair of Nuozi are like the jade bamboo shoots that have just emerged, they are flower bones, flowers that have not bloomed, they are pretty and lively, but they are half in their mouths.
But the girl in front of her was like a juicy peach. There is still a little immature and delicate look on the bright and white little face, but it also exudes a kind of inadvertent flattery.
How would you describe that feeling? It's as if a lot of sweet juice can flow out with just a light poke.
stunner!
Mother Liu thought for a long time before she came up with such an adjective.
She didn't care to listen to her sister and others chatting anymore, thinking about what she had just heard, she hurriedly asked: "The one who wants to go to the palace to work as an errand, but is that little woman standing in the yard? Let someone come in and let me take a look." look."
After Yao Cheng was taken aback, he hurried out.
Seeing the girl walking towards her slowly, Mother Liu seemed to have acquired some kind of treasure, with obvious joy in her eyes.
Aunt Wang looked at her sister with some doubts, and couldn't figure out why she was so happy.
Could it be that he has taken a fancy to Yaoniang
Thinking of this, she was also very happy in her heart, this child is a miserable person, and she also hoped to find a way out for her, otherwise why would she talk so much.
Yaoniang felt more and more sharp, why did Mama Liu look at her as if she saw gold.
She remembered that she didn't feel this way in her previous life, but she didn't have time to think about it in a flash, because Mother Liu had already held her hand and asked.
"Just had a baby? Why do you want to be a nanny? Are you willing to leave your man?"
Yaoniang had talked to her sister and husband about these questions at home, so it was not difficult to answer them.
"I just left when I was pregnant with a man. It's really hard to live, so I think of a way to find a way for myself and my child." She lowered her head and said in a soft voice.
When she heard that the man had died, Mother Liu's eyes lit up even more, but no one noticed it.
"It's a child with a hard life. Being on an errand in the palace is different from other places, but the rules in the mansion are strict, unlike at home."
"This Yaoniang understands, she will abide by the rules of the house, and will not cause trouble."
Mother Liu took her hand and looked at her white face, which looked like an egg that had been peeled off its shell, pretty and fresh, tender and smooth. In terms of being prettier than this girl, it's not that Mama Liu has never seen someone, but from the first time she saw this little woman, she knew that this was the kind of person Mama Li was looking for.
It's an inexplicable feeling.
She felt more and more satisfied, so she talked more and more: "However, the monthly money in our mansion is quite generous. If you can choose, not to mention other things, there will be ten taels a month. The rewarded money is enough for you to work for a year and a half."
After a pause, she said again: "I'm afraid you don't know, this time we choose a nanny in the palace, it is for the little princess. If you have a good milk and are liked by the little princess, it is not a bad idea to stay as a nanny." Impossible. At that time, you will be decent, and it is not an exaggeration to say that you are half a master. When the little princess grows up and gets married, you will go with the dowry. Blessing."
This mother Liu is extraordinarily attentive, as if she really wants Yaoniang to agree to this matter. But mother Liu never said these words to Yaoniang in her previous life, and Yaoniang was a little strange about her intentions.
Could it be that the palace is short of nanny? That's why mother Liu, who has always been powerful, is like this
But at the same time, she also thought about some experiences in her previous life, and subconsciously said: "Being a nanny is also a servant, what kind of blessing is this?"
After the words came out, she realized what she had said, and her heart tightened, for fear of offending Mother Liu.
Unexpectedly, Ms. Liu was not annoyed at all, instead she looked at her like an ignorant child, and said, "What a silly girl! But it's true, you are from a small family, so naturally you don't know how to deal with a big family. Let me tell you, there is a difference between this servant and servant. As the saying goes, the seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister's door, not to mention the nanny of the little princess of the palace. This is different from ordinary nanny, it can be regarded as the upper half A foster mother."
Seeing everyone looking at her, Mama Liu felt a sense of superiority, so she said it very carefully: "The little princess is your grandson, so she listens to you in everything, not only is she very respectable among servants, but also in The masters also have a sense of dignity in front of them. At that time, with the back of the mountain of Prince Jin's Mansion, the whole Jinzhou can be walked. Take me as an example, if something happens to Linyun County, I will go to the county The name of Prince Jin's Mansion is listed in the Yabao, even your county magistrate will have to give the old lady some face."
Yao Niang smiled wryly in her heart.
She naturally understands this truth, but she knows better that it is not so easy to be a servant of the palace.
It's as if in her previous life, she entered the mansion to be a nanny, but she was almost kicked out because of someone's design. It's not easy for the princess to miss her, so she was left to be a servant. Who would have thought that she would be forced to climb out of bed because of the troubles made by Concubine Hu one after another.
And her bad luck in her previous life started when she climbed the bed. Although Yaoniang didn't know why she died in her previous life and who killed her, she still had a vague object in her mind. If anyone in the Jin Palace hated her the most, it would probably be Concubine Hu.
Thinking of Hu's concubine's methods, Yaoniang felt shuddering, and at the same time she was a little bit depressed.
But things have come to this point, and she also knows that she has no other way to go.
Of course, she could have a thick skin, endure Li Shi's insults from time to time, and stay at Yao's house. But Yaoniang knew that staying in the Yao family was not a long-term thing, her brother-in-law was right, the Yao family could support her and Xiaobao for a year or two, could it be possible to support them for a lifetime? Little Treasure will grow up one day. Does she want her son to live in such a humiliating environment
And my sister, she can't just take care of herself and spoil her sister's good life, so she has only one way to go.
Mother Liu said some more words, but Yaoniang didn't listen to her at all because her mind was flustered.
All in all, it's settled.
Because Liu's mother was rushing back, she had to leave the day after tomorrow, which meant that Yaoniang had only one day to leave Xiaobao and go to Jincheng.
Jincheng is not far from Linyun County, that is, more than a day's journey, but it is not so easy to get out after entering the palace, which means that she will never see Xiaobao again for a long time.
After going back, Yaoniang showed no joy on her face, she greeted her sister, and then went into the cubicle to see Xiaobao.
Hui Niang was stunned for a moment, thinking that the matter would not work out, she was about to go in to persuade her younger sister not to think too much, but her husband stopped her.
"It's done, I'm leaving the day after tomorrow, Yaoniang probably doesn't want to part with Xiaobao, let her stay alone with the child for a while."
Hui Niang's eyes became sad, and she sighed heavily.
Xiaobao just woke up and was lying on the bed, looking around with his little head.
When he saw his mother appearing in front of his eyes, his eyes were very different, as if he also knew that this was his mother.
Yaoniang felt sad, and couldn't help crying while hugging Xiaobao.
After crying for a while, she wiped her tears, opened her clothes and fed Xiaobao.
Xiaobao didn't eat for a while, and he was very greedy, but he sucked vigorously. Yaoniang looked at him full of love, and stroked his little head that had just grown a layer of fluff.
For the next day, Yaoniang just hugged Xiaobao and didn't go anywhere. She used to know to help the family with some work, but now she doesn't.
Mrs. Li was scolded by her son the other day, and she has been keeping a low profile for the past two days. Mother Hui has to take care of Brother Ming and Brother Hong, so naturally she has no time to do housework. He was so busy with the daily housework that he couldn't help but yelled and cursed in the yard.
Yao Cheng wasn't there, now Hui Niang didn't want to put up with her, so she raised the curtain and stood at the door looking at her coldly.
"Stop scolding, Yaoniang will leave tomorrow."
small theater:
King Jin: "Uh-huh—this king is dead?"
Yaoniang: QAQ At that time, I really thought you were dead...
King Jin: Then now
Yaoniang: You are alive, and you are one of the good ones. (QAQ, pointing fingers, crying, complaining)
