Chapter 2 New gossip 2
Ma Siniang thought that the fish was worried about herself, so she quickly said, "You don't have to worry about me. Dad and mother won't vent their anger on me no matter how much they make trouble. The two new aunts are still respectful to me. Besides, we are not the only family with concubines in our village. It is not a rare thing that rich people will raise a few concubines at home.
Ma Siniang said this, and the fact that it has been ignored by the fish is now clearly placed in front of the fish - although Xiaoqi Village is a rural place, there are still several families with good families in the village. These families may have small businesses in the city, or their ancestors are landlords. Although these families are It's not as good as the rich people in the city, and the family is not as big as the people in the city, but it can still afford to raise a few concubines...
Therefore, in the families of several relatively wealthy people in Xiaoqi Village, the male owner of the family really raised two or three concubines. It's just that most of the people who socialize with the fish family are not too rich, so there are no people with the status of "concubine" in the fish's life circle. And people who have not appeared as "concubines" for a long time have almost forgotten the rule that ancient men could have three wives and four concubines.
Li Erniu, who is optimistic by nature, will not think as long as Yuer. After she took a sip of water, she immediately took over the words: "Yuer, if you know how Aunt Ma and the two concubines of the Ma family fight, you will definitely find it very interesting! The seven aunts and eight aunts in our village have been talking about the fight between Aunt Ma and two concubines every day these days. I think your family is too busy to hear these new things!"
The fish quickly pierced the needle and asked casually, "Are they really making trouble? I didn't expect that there would be a scene of wives and concubines competing in a small place like our Xiaoqi Village.
Li Erniu nodded and said, "It's really a mess! Those two aunts have been second-class maids in the rich people's family in the city since they were young. Although they are not as good-faced first-class maids, they are not comparable to those rough maids. I heard that they have not done any heavy or rough work with their previous masters. Although they are maids, a pair of small hands are whiter and tenderer than the little ladies in our village!"
In her previous life, Yuer watched a lot of TV series and novels. Although she did not have the opportunity to contact a large group of maids in this life, she knew that the maids of large families were divided into three or six grades. Except for the first-class maids, the most honorable one was the second-class maid. These second-class maids are usually close to serving in the masters' rooms, and most of them do some trivial things such as delivering tea and water, running errands and passing on words...
None of these things are rough and heavy work. In addition, the things that the maids of large families eat and wear are much better than those of the poor families, so it is not surprising that these maids are eventually raised white and tender. If these maids are all the same as rural maids, with rough skin and black faces, how can there be those first-class and second-class maids being looked up by the male protagonist and then accepted the house?
Therefore, Li Erniu said that the two maids of the Ma family were as tender as green onions and fish were not surprised at all. They just patted the enviable Li Erniu angrily: "If you envy other people's white and tender hands, you can just go to the city to be maids for others!" Look at your un promising spirit! No matter how good the maid is, she will always be a maid, isn't she?"
Li Erniu said admiringly, "I'm envious by the way! But I only envy their small hands, but I don't envy their maidservant status! I'm a good citizen who shouldn't be a slave to others. Am I stupid?"
The fish slowly pulled out the color line and pierced the needle, urging: "Okay, don't go far, just go on! I'm still waiting for the next article!"
Li Erniu was urged to quickly turn to the topic and came to the fish and said, "Although the two concubines of the Ma family are maids, they have never done the rough work that we are used to doing in the countryside. Even passing by pigsty and thatched houses have to cover their noses and hide far away! After Aunt Ma knew about this, she came up with a way to toss them, and one of them gave them a broom to clean the pigsty..."
It turned out that Aunt Ma had been looking at the two concubines in the family, but she couldn't think of any way to toss them, and she dared not beat them blatantly to angrily.
And when the second aunt Ma was struggling to think of no way to tosss the two concubines, she happened to hear several maids chewing their tongues and say that the two concubines were not only often poor and exquisite, but also very afraid of approaching the pigsty and the hut, so the second aunt Ma immediately came up with a plan to send the two concubines to clean the pigsty as the mother of the family, and deliberately chose her. Let them do what they avoid!
There are several servants in the Ma family who are idle, but Aunt Ma wants to let the concubine who is half the master to clean the pigsty. In addition, even the rough maids under the same eaves before do this kind of work on weekdays, not to mention the two delicate second-class maids, Cuiyan and Cuiyun, so Cuiyan and Cuiyun are now I went to make a theory with Aunt Ma.
But at that time, the man in charge of the Ma family happened to be absent, so Aunt Ma arrogantly gave two concubines a sentence--if you want to stay in the Ma's house, you can listen to the words of the mother-in-law and work hard. Their concubines in the countryside did not have to enjoy happiness in vain and have to help share the housework. If you feel that life can't continue, you can do it immediately. Sell them to people's teeth!
In the Northern Song Dynasty, the wife had the absolute right to deal with the concubine, and if Aunt Ma had not been afraid that Ma Ershui would come back and punch her, she would have sold the two concubines while he was not there! But although Second Aunt Ma can't sell concubines, she can ask them to work. After selling this broken concubine to others, most of them have no good life? Besides, although Aunt Ma is not good to Cuiyan and Cuiyun, Ma Ershui is still good to them...
So Cuiyan and Cuiyun finally had to hold their unwillingness for the time being, took the broom to clean the pigsty, and looked forward to Ma Ershui returning home as soon as possible.
But these two second-class maids, who only do light work in the city, really can't do the dirty and smelly work of sweeping the pigsty, so they pretended to sweep outside the pigsty for a while. They threw the broom to the little maid who followed them and let the little maid work for themselves.
The two little maids were bought by Ma Ershui to serve Cuiyan and Cuiyun, so they obediently did what Cuiyan and Cuiyun ordered. But how can Second Aunt Ma let Cuiyan and Cuiyun's wishes start?
The two little maids had only been working for a while. Aunt Ma deliberately asked the two little maids to do something else, and sent a message to Cuiyan and Cuiyun that they had not cleaned the pigsty after another cup of tea, and would not give them food at night, so Cuiyan and Cuiyun could only clenched their teeth and picked up the broom again and stared at the pass. Seven or eight pigs and the stinky pigsty are reluctant to enter.
Cuiyan and Cuiyun were very reluctant to sweep the pigsty, so they came together to discuss the idea of dealing with Aunt Ma. In a while, they really came up with a good idea. Cuiyan and Cuiyun walked to a woman with a smile and stuffed a handful of money into the woman without saying a word. In the hands.
The woman was sent by Aunt Ma to monitor Cuiyan and Cuiyun to work, so although she knew their intention to stuff the money, she still pretended to be stupid and asked, "Why did the two aunts suddenly reward the old lady?"
"Aunuch Zhang, we know that you are best at doing these farm work, so we want to ask you for help," Cuiyan flattered Mrs. Zhang with a smile, and then added: "Don't worry, we know that you can finish the work in a short time, and we will never let your wife find out, and we will not Tell others that you have helped us a lot!"
Mrs. Zhang listened to Cuiyan's words and touched the money in her sleeve, and her heart was a little moved, but in order to blackmail Cuiyan for a little more money, she deliberately said with an unhappy face, "My aunt gave me so much money, just want my wife to disobey my wife's meaning?"
Cuiyan and Cuiyun have got a lot of reward money from Ma Ershui these days, so when they saw that Mrs. Zhang wanted to help, they immediately stuffed another handful of money for her. Anyway, this money was given by Ma Ershui in the final analysis. If you don't have any more ideas, just ask for it.
When Mrs. Zhang saw that the two aunts readily added money, she was very happy. In addition, the woman was a native countryman, and the job of cleaning the pigsty was a piece of cake for her, so after receiving the money from Cuiyan and Cuiyun, she immediately picked up the broom and got into the smelly pigsty pigsty. Just clean up the pigsty.
When Cuiyan and Cuiyun saw that Mrs. Zhang cleaned up the pigsty that made them difficult in a short time, they went to Aunt Ma happily and replied, thinking that Aunt Ma would let them go back to rest. Unexpectedly, Aunt Ma was not a good fool. As soon as she saw that Cuiyan and Cuiyun's dresses were still clean and there was no embarrassment on her body, she guessed that someone would work for them.
The second aunt Ma did not expose Cuiyan and Cuiyun on the spot, but immediately summoned the servants of the family together the next day and issued a death order as soon as she opened her mouth - if anyone dares to quietly help the two aunts work, she will immediately sell them far away!
No matter how greedy the Ma family is, the deed of selling his body is also in the hands of Aunt Ma, so they dare not accept the benefits of two more aunts to help them work. Cuiyan and Cuiyun were immediately sent by Aunt Ma to clean the dirtier and smellier thatched hut. After cleaning, they had to put the accumulated feces in wooden barrels and pick them out to water vegetables in Ma's field.
There are many fields in the Ma family. Usually, the rough work of picking manure and watering vegetables is also done by the long-term workers, but the second aunt Ma sent this work to Cuiyan and Cuiyun, which made it clear that they would suffer more.
