"That's right, Miss Niu is still the best!"
When Xuanyuan Yu heard these words, her face didn't change in the slightest. It was as if she was deliberately speaking with such generosity in front of everyone. However, this accusation had fallen on her. If the Prime Minister's Estate could help her understand what hell was, then this place could help her understand what human nature was. He could clearly see that side of human nature.
He stood up, wiped the corner of his mouth and walked out gracefully. He couldn't help but feel sad for the people here.
Looking at the gazes from the surroundings, everything seemed so ironic.
If there is one good thing about it, it will make you look like a god. If there is one bad thing about it, it will attack you. However, it was moving along with his emotions. He could risk his life for that one acre and three acre worth of land. Usually, he would laugh at others, laugh at himself, and take out those few bundles of copper coins. He was living a lowly life. There was no so-called ideal, no so-called dream, only existence. Can such a person be called a living person? Survival!
But could he mock them?
Obviously not.
It was because the environment created people.
If she, Xuanyuan Yu, had lived in such a place since young, her family would have been in debt from a young age. He was then sold here to be a servant girl. For the sake of his family, for the sake of getting that little bit of money, he must have sold himself! Sell your soul. When your belly is hungry, when your loved ones are worried about living. All your dreams are worthless.
The smile on his face was so bleak, so pale. So ironic, so cold.
"Mother, do you think her words can be trusted?" Cai Ruomeng asked doubtfully. After she told her mother about what the ugly girl said just now, her mother didn't have much of an expression on her face. This made her feel perplexed.
Madam Cai smiled faintly. "Eat."
Cai Ruomeng put down her chopsticks, looked at her mother, and asked anxiously, "Mother, aren't you in a hurry? Tomorrow was the wedding day. It would have been fine if Young Master Wang hadn't discovered him, but now, for some reason, he had issued a death warrant. I must get that ugly girl. Mother, what do you think we should do!? Right now, I am truly confused. Would that ugly girl really let the second young mistress of the Wang family go and be willing to leave? But I also feel that she doesn't dare to lie to me? Mother? What do you think we should do after all? Would she believe what she said or not?!
Lady Cai put down her chopsticks and shook her head. "Mu Er, how many times have I told you to stay calm? No matter what happens, you have to stay calm. "You are in such a hurry, in such a hurry, that you can't calm down, what can you do?"
Cai Ruomo shook Madam Cai's sleeve, "Mother, your daughter knows. But this time, the situation is really serious, so your daughter is worried."
Mrs. Cai glared at him and spat out two words coldly, "Eat your food." After saying that, he picked up the chopsticks and slowly savored the taste.
Cai Ruomeng swallowed whatever she wanted to say, picked up her chopsticks, and took a bite out of them. The normally delicious food tasted like chewing wax, and what was even more exaggerated was her mother's speed, which was two times slower than usual. As she ate till the end, Cai Ruo Mu couldn't help but calm down and slowly chew the food.
Lady Cai looked at her daughter with admiration.
The two of them had eaten for an entire hour and the food had almost cooled down.
Lady Cai then put down her chopsticks.
Shuang Mei came in to clean up the dishes. Xiao Lian had brewed the tea and warmed their hands.
"You guys can leave first!"
"Yes." After the two of them left, they couldn't help but feel suspicious. What had the young mistress and the Madam been talking about recently? Could it be that even the daughters that were going to be married off were like this?
Lady Cai smiled at the dignified and virtuous Cai Ruo Mu and the teacup and asked, "Are you still in a hurry?"
Cai Ruomeng smiled back, put down the cup, and then said, "Of course I'm worried. It was just a fake calmness!
Lady Cai smiled. "This is the proper room. No matter the circumstances, you should maintain a calm and dignified demeanor." At the same time, there is another good thing about calming you down, which is to let you know what you're doing better. Do you know why I didn't stop you from bullying the maidservants? Now you learn to be demure "?
Cai Ruomeng looked at her mother in confusion.
Lady Cai sighed and said, "If I had taught you how to be a proper person since you were young, you would have been like that when you grew up. You wouldn't have returned the favor even if you were bullied. All you wanted was dignity." Therefore, your temper and personality have long been deeply embedded into your bones. No one dares to bully you, and no one dares to bully you either. Therefore, since you were young, I have made you look upon kindness, and made you go to see him often. This way, you have also learned how to endure, and now I will teach you how to calm down, and also let you see so many things, and also let you understand, that the world will always be cruel, and you can no longer feel that your life will be good again. He had to be a good person, without even the slightest bit of malice. I want you to see the most fundamental thing about human nature, and you will understand what it means to live, how to live, how to live better, and not be fooled. "
Cai Ruomo held her mother's hand excitedly and shouted, "Mother!"
Lady Cai patted her hand and smiled. "Good child, no one will ever tell you these things. In the eyes of the world, it's fine as long as you let your daughter understand what is good, but it's all wrong. Mother won't be able to protect you anymore. You have to learn how to fly, and instead of letting you be reborn from the flames, Mother will tell you everything now. At the very least, you won't have to experience the fear of dying from happiness or death. "
Cai Ruomeng moved her nose and said emotionally, "Mother, daughter will remember your teachings."
Lady Cai smiled and nodded. "Then let's talk about this ugly girl now."
"Okay." Cai Ruo Mu wiped a tear from the corner of her eyes and said resolutely.
"I'm afraid that this girl is not as simple as we thought. However, since she has said so, you can do it without Niu Mei. Furthermore, since she said so, it seemed that she had also thoroughly investigated the situation of the beef plum. If she disappeared. We helped her, too, helping each other out, and that was the best thing that could happen if she tried to hurt us. "Then even if we don't marry into the palace, we absolutely cannot let her off." Lady Cai said coldly.
"Yes mother." Cai Ruomeng answered respectfully.
"We'll deal with it when it's time." You don't have to worry at all. " Mrs. Cai raised her tall head and said proudly.
"Mother, daughter is not worried, such a small role is not worth daughter's worry. His daughter was going to marry into the palace, become a Young Mistress, and control the Wang Clan. How could he be worried? There were a lot of things to worry about in the future. If my daughter had been afraid, she would not have taken this step now ".
"Child, it's good that you understand."
"Fussy Plum. "Xiao Lian, you guys come in." As soon as he said that, two people walked in. He lowered his head respectfully.
"Madam, what can I do for you?"
"You can go and inform all the servants. "All of you, gather in the main hall, I have something to tell you."
All of them had a premonition that something big was about to happen every time they gathered.
"Yes." Both of them backed out.
Cai Ruomo abruptly pulled on her mother's sleeve.
Lady Cai just looked at her calmly.
"Mother, let's go together." A faint smile hung on her face.
Mrs. Cai patted her hand. The two of them walked out together.
While Xuanyuan Yu was speaking with all the maids in the room.
I suddenly received this news.
Everyone was stunned. However, they all understood that something major had happened again.
Niu Meili secretly asked, "Did something happen this time?"
She shook her head and went to inform the others.
A smile appeared on Niu Mei's face. It seemed like the poison had taken effect.
Xuanyuan Yu looked at Niu Mei's back and the things here. He smiled faintly. It was time to leave. It was time to end it all.
Looking at the sunlight shining from outside, Xuanyuan Yu's heart was filled with mixed emotions. She hadn't been in the mansion for long, it hadn't even been a month! But why did it feel like centuries had passed? From the initial fright to the later encounter with the Wang family's young masters, as well as the change in his opinion of Ouyang Lengxie. Seeing the word "love" hurt him. He had also seen events that involved the next generation due to the previous generation not managing their relationship well. These things might take a person many years to experience, but Xuanyuan Yu had already experienced so much in a single month.
But the story that belongs to her has not yet begun, what personality a person can develop, it is not a personal decision, I believe it is the environment creator.
They followed everyone else to the hall. The last time they were here, they had been tricked for the sake of Myrtle. This time, they were going to pull Myrtle down from her horse. The world had changed. So fast.
Cai Ruo Mu walked over slowly, holding Lady Cai's arm. An aunt and two concubines followed.
Elegant, beautiful, and confident.
Standing there, Xuanyuan Yu realized that this person's change was even greater than she had imagined. It turned out that he wasn't the only one who had changed!
As soon as Mrs. Cai sat down.
All the maidservants, wives, and attendants saluted in unison. "Greetings, Madam! Greetings, Eldest Miss!"
