Chapter 263

Early the next morning, Captain Qian commanded a group of soldiers to call up the Marquis house.

Simply eat some dry food and start a new day's "journey".

"Zhongliang, don't make yesterday's mistakes today. You must be prepared!"

Before leaving, Mammy Zhao pulled Feng Zhongliang aside, with a cold face and a low voice.

"...." wriggled his lower lip. Feng Zhongliang wanted to explain: Aung, I didn't make a mistake yesterday. I did it for the eldest lady.

However, accustomed to being obedient in front of a strong mother, Feng Zhongliang didn't dare to speak in the face of mammy Zhao's serious face.

Feng Zhongliang nodded in a muffled voice. Although Feng Zhongliang recognized his mother's reprimand, he left some gloom in his heart.

"By the way, where's your daughter-in-law? Let her bring the eldest lady quickly!"

Mammy Zhao rubbed her shoulders. The pain in her muscles made her show her teeth.

Although mammy Zhao is a servant of the Marquis, she hasn't done hard work for many years.

To put it mildly, her days in the Marquis were actually more comfortable than the wives of some officials.

You don't have to do hard work, just take care of Mrs. Zhang.

When she didn't give orders, she stopped, and there were little servant girls waiting on her.

Back home, the Feng family also had women and servant girls. And Gu xiuniang's daughter-in-law.

It can be said that mammy Zhao is called a slave and maid, but she has always lived a life of dignity and excellence.

Over the years, she has been reluctant to leave the Hou house. Of course, there are reasons why she can't let go of Mrs. Zhang, but the rich days of the Hou house are really nostalgic.

After Hou's house was in trouble, the whole family was escorted to Beijing. Only then did mammy Zhao really suffer.

For example, Wei yuanniang, a four or five-year-old child, can't go by herself. Basically, it's carried by her parents or servant girls.

At the beginning, Mrs. Zhang was surrounded by a group of servant girls.

However, during the journey, either the officers and soldiers humiliated and killed themselves, or died of fatigue and hunger, or were simply sold by several masters such as Mrs. Zhang

In less than a month's effort, the journey was only half. Mrs. Zhang was left with only mother Zhao, a big servant girl and two or three concubines who had given birth to children.

Without sufficient manpower, Mrs. Zhang would not personally take care of Wei yuanniang. Only grandma Zhao had to bear the burden of serving the "eldest lady".

Grandma?

Ha, what if mother Zhao is Wei yuanniang's blood relative?

It's just a girl's film. Do you really want to offer it as your ancestors.

That is to say, I'm afraid that being too harsh on Wei yuanniang will cause others' suspicion and eventually ruin the event of my wife, otherwise——

Mother Zhao is a loyal servant. She can bear the pain to give up a cheap granddaughter, her husband and her son.

In fact, mother Zhao's husband really died for the Savior.

Mammy Zhao is Mrs. Zhang's nurse. After Mrs. Zhang married to Pingnan Hou house, Mammy Zhao's family became her escort.

Mother Zhao's husband helped Mrs. Zhang take care of the dowry Chuang Tzu. She was very capable and was highly valued by Mrs. Zhang.

A few years ago, the Duke of Pingnan led troops to clear up the barbarians. Nancheng's troops were empty and besieged by a group of mountain people.

Seeing that the situation was critical, Mrs. Zhang took Mrs. Tai, Mrs. two, Mrs. three and other women's dependents, ready to hide outside the city.

As a result, on the way, I met the mob.

It was mother Zhao's husband who led Zhuang Zi's young and brave villagers to the rescue.

However, in the chaotic war, in order to protect Mrs. Zhang, Mammy Zhao's husband was stabbed in the chest by the mob and killed on the spot.

After her husband died, Mammy Zhao cried bitterly, wiped away her tears, and continued to work beside Mrs. Zhang.

The death of her husband was not without any effect. At least it made Mrs. Zhang trust mammy Zhao more.

Therefore, when Mrs. Zhang encountered difficulties, she didn't even tell her parents or husband, but secretly discussed with mother Zhao.

Mrs. Zhang has a clear class boundary in her heart, but it is undeniable that mammy Zhao is the person she trusts most in the world.

Mrs. Zhang trusted mammy Zhao, who naturally regarded Mrs. Zhang as the only one.

For Mrs. Zhang, Mammy Zhao could even give up her own life.

It's just a little bitter now. It's not really anything, is it?

Mother Zhao rubbed her shoulders again. Alas, the dead girl is not fat. How dead.

Yesterday was just a long time on her back. Mammy Zhao was tired, her back was aching, and her shoulder became like a stone.

It's hard to force me to serve this little ancestor today.

At the thought of the boundless officialdom and a layer of blisters on her feet, mother Zhao was a little frightened.

"Mother-in-law, the eldest lady seems to have a fever. The situation is not very good."

He Tiantian came over with Wei yuanniang in her arms, and Feng Yanting followed her skillfully.

She looked at mother Zhao and said with some worry, "I think I'd better take care of her."

"First, it's easier to sit in the carriage. It won't be exposed to the wind and sun, and the eldest lady can suffer less."

"Second, mother-in-law, you are old and in poor health. It's difficult to take care of yourself. It's not good to serve the eldest lady again!"

He Tiantian's words are reasonable. Even the honest Feng Zhongliang can't help nodding.

Yes, let the eldest lady ride in a carriage, not only for the eldest lady, but also to make mother Zhao more comfortable.

These days, I often see my mother's old age, but she still has to serve Mrs. Zhang and carry the eldest lady on her back. Feng Zhongliang doesn't say it, but it's also painful inside.

But his brain is stupid and his mouth is more stupid. He will only feel silly and distressed. Unlike his wife, he thought of a way to have the best of both worlds.

Mammy Zhao:... If you say so, it makes sense, but it just feels strange.

But for a moment, Mammy Zhao couldn't tell what was wrong.

Mrs. Zhang and her family members were expelled from the post station and cheerfully stepped onto the official road.

Feng Zhongliang drove the carriage and followed him not far or near.

Mrs. Zhang used to look for Feng Yanting. As a result, in the old pony car, she saw not only Feng Yanting, but also Wei yuanniang.

Mrs. Zhang's face suddenly changed.

Because she found that Feng Yanting was also sitting in the carriage, while Wei yuanniang was held in her arms by "Gu xiuniang"!

How can this be?

Shouldn't Gu xiuniang serve Yanting well?

Her Yanting court is the young master of the Marquis, who is held and served by others.

What is Wei yuanniang?

Does she deserve to ride in the same carriage with Yanting? And special treatment?!

Mrs. Zhang suddenly felt angry. She turned her head and scolded mammy Zhao angrily, "... How did yuanniang sit in the carriage?"

Mother Zhao felt Mrs. Zhang's anger. Although she didn't know why, she subconsciously admitted her mistake because of her habit for many years.

"It's all the old slave's fault. It's the old slave's thoughtlessness. He only considers that the eldest lady is injured, but ignores others!"

As for what she had overlooked, Mammy Zhao really didn't know.

However, as a slave, the master was angry. He must have made a mistake.

So, first plead guilty, others, and then listen to the master's signal.

"You know you're wrong?"

Mrs. Zhang endured her anger and lowered her voice. "The Hou house is now a body of guilt. She can allow Feng Zhongliang to help secretly. She already has some conscience surnamed Qian."

"As the eldest lady of the Marquis, Yuan Niang should have been with the people, but she ran to take a carriage. Isn't this an inch? It provoked the dissatisfaction of the officers and soldiers?"

"In addition, the Marquis house is not only a child of Yuan Niang, not to mention several concubines in our big house, but also young children in the second room and the third room. However, Yuan Niang takes a carriage alone, but other children walk. You say -"

"When something happens to the Marquis, the whole Marquis house will be blamed. The second room and the third room have complained a lot about our big room. Now with the raft of yuanniang, they don't know how to make trouble!"

Mrs. Zhang was right. Just as she took mammy Zhao to scold, the second and third ladies had pulled their youngest children close to the carriage.

"Feng's family, our Sanniang, Qilang and Jiuniang are too young to walk. Why don't they go up to accompany yuanniang?"

The second lady said politely. In fact, they were secretly rubbing a reminder: Wei yuanniang can take a carriage. Other children of the Wei family, and others younger than her, should also take a carriage.

He Tiantian didn't take the second lady's words, but suddenly came up with such a sentence: "second lady, although my mother-in-law is on duty in the Wei family, my man has long been freed from slavery."

"My husband is not a noble man, but he also has some skills. When you go outside, everyone will politely call him uncle Feng."

After saying this, he Tiantian didn't speak again.

The second and third ladies blushed.

They are not stupid. Of course, they heard what he Tiantian meant.

People think they shouldn't call each other "Feng's".

Although the title "Feng's" does not mean any insult, it is also somewhat arbitrary.

Like those women in their Hou house, they are basically called "XX family".

But "Gu xiuniang" is not a servant of Hou's house.

Although my mother-in-law works in Hou's house, others also have some faces outside.

Needless to say, now the Marquis house is in trouble. Ladies like the second and third ladies are worse than ordinary people.

Guilty body, but still so lightly call a "rich grandmother" as "Feng's". No wonder people will be unhappy.

But, but

While the second and third ladies blushed, a violent anger suddenly appeared in their hearts.

What a petty whore.

Why didn't you pick a reason when you came to Hou's house to greet you?

Now Hou's house has been accused. She is shaking up as a slave who has taken off her nationality?!

However, before the second and third ladies had an attack, he Tiantian seemed to think of something, covered her mouth and said with a smile: "the words just said by the two nobles are also inappropriate."

"My mother-in-law serves Mrs. Hou. Our Feng family has been greatly favored by Mrs. Hou. Therefore, even if we wronged our own flesh and blood, we should take good care of Mrs. Hou's only daughter!"

Just at this time, a group of people went uphill.

Feng Zhongliang listened too much to his mother's words. Mammy Zhao asked him to buy an old carriage. He also bought a car with an old horse and a broken car.

There was no carriage, only a shed, and it didn't matter if the carriage was broken.

The point is, the horse pulling the cart is too old.

The flat road is nothing. Once there is an uphill slope or sink into a mud pit, it can't be pulled up by the pull of the horse alone.

At this time, the people on the carriage have to jump down and reduce the load of the carriage even if they don't help push the cart.

In the past, Gu xiuniang, the original owner, loved her son. She got off the bus and left her son in the carriage.

But now——

He Tiantian gently put Wei yuanniang on the board and wrapped the bedding.

He jumped out of the carriage and greeted Feng Yanting: "come, Yanting, come down and help my father push the cart with my aunt!"

Although Feng Yanting was surprised, he was very sensible.

He nodded obediently, got out of the car carefully with the help of he Tiantian, and then helped push the cart with he Tiantian.

Seeing this scene, the second and third ladies had to shut up.

What else did they say?

Mother Zhao's son and daughter-in-law, like mother Zhao, are Mrs. Zhang's staunch henchmen. Oh, no, they are Tianda's loyal servants.

In order to take care of the daughter of the benefactor's family, even his own flesh and blood can be wronged.

Not to mention a lady in distress who has nothing to do with the Feng family and the Gu family, like the second and third ladies.

Although the second and third ladies can see clearly, they also have some understanding.

But, in the end unwilling.

Holding the child, he returned to the army and deliberately crowded around Mrs. Zhang.

The second lady said bitterly, "if you don't cry, it's your sister-in-law. You're a lady of the first grade. The people you teach are close."

The third lady quickly agreed, "no, it's nothing to manage before and after. For the only blood of your master, sister-in-law, you don't even care about your own flesh and blood!"

"Oh, in the past, some people always said that we were inferior to sister-in-law. Today, we really can't compare!"

"Yes, sister-in-law, you are so powerful. Please teach us more in the future. I also hope you can help us two rooms and three rooms more!"

Mrs. Zhang:... Her eyes are bloodshot with anger.

Good Gu xiuniang, bitch dare!

I drove my Yanting out of the car and let your dead girl lie down.

And want my son to push your daughter?!

You, you!

Mrs. Zhang clenched her fist, and her fingernails left several crescent shaped pinch marks in the palm.

However, there were two ladies and three ladies in front of her. No matter how much anger Mrs. Zhang had in her chest, she didn't dare to reveal anything.

She also whitewashed Taiping's smile and apologized to them, "they are all vulgar and ignorant people. If you offend your two siblings, please don't worry about them!"

"Oh, in the future, we have to rely on Uncle Feng and grandma. How dare we argue with others?"

The second lady and the third lady continued to run in a strange manner.

After the run on Mrs. Zhang, the second lady looked at mammy Zhao again. "Mammy Zhao is so lucky that she has raised a good son and married a good daughter-in-law!"

Mammy Zhao:

She looked at he Tiantian, who led Feng Yanting's cart, and then turned her head to steal a peek at Mrs. Zhang's cold face.

Suddenly, she finally understood what was wrong in her heart.

"Gu xiuniang" holding Wei yuanniang to take a carriage is definitely not a small matter, let alone the best of both worlds.

It's a serious challenge to Mrs. Zhang's authority, reversing her dignity!
