Chapter 27 Trembling(1/2)
Although I had already guessed his extraordinary status after being reminded by my wife, I really didn’t expect him to be so extraordinary. The old man’s home wasn’t very eye-catching either.
The girl looked stunned, and her parents outside were already dumbfounded.
My dear, no one in Jiangzhou Prefecture would dare to offend even the lowest servant from such a family.
The Cheng family is different from the Zhang family, and being a maid is different from being a cook.
A girl can't be a cook for a lifetime, but a cook can be a cook for a lifetime.
Those good cooks raised by wealthy families have a high status in the family, and they can also rent them out. It is extremely shameful to hire a good cook and prepare a good banquet.
Not to mention the rewards received.
The girl's parents outside the door can no longer sit down.
If my daughter goes to such a family, even if my own family is not lucky enough to go with her, they will still be blessed endlessly in the Cheng family.
"Of course I am willing." The old woman couldn't help but kowtow and shouted happily, "Thank you sir and madam for caring about me. Thank you madam for caring about me."
On the other hand, he simply knelt forward and reached out to push the girl who was still in a daze.
"Thank you quickly, Master and Madam. When you get there, be nice and don't embarrass Master and Madam, and don't forget your last name." She shouted in a low voice.
The girl was pushed forward and fell forward, holding her hands on the ground in a panic.
"Master, madam, slave..." she said in a trembling voice.
"Okay, don't say those words. After you pass, stick to your duties. From now on, you will be a member of the Zhang family. Don't worry about the Cheng family anymore." Master Cheng said.
"No, Master." The girl said hurriedly and kowtowed, "Slave, you can't go."
There was silence in the room, and Master Cheng and his wife were a little surprised.
What?
"You damn girl, what are you talking about? This is not the time for you to act pretentious. Just listen to what the master and his wife say." The old woman pushed the girl hard again and shouted.
"Mom, you don't know, don't talk nonsense." The girl turned around anxiously and said, then looked at Master Cheng Er and his wife, "Master and Madam, I don't have any skills. These slaves were taught by my wife, so I don't dare to go.
You are showing off your humiliation in front of the old man."
Here it is again…
Mrs. Cheng Er was in a daze.
This, this is not made by me, my wife taught me...
The girl kowtowing in front of her seemed to have changed into the girl she once was, with a generally panicked expression and generally... talking nonsense.
"Do you think your surname is Zhou?" Mrs. Cheng asked with a sneer.
The girl looked up in confusion.
"I called you here to tell you that you will go to Mrs. Zhang's house tomorrow. I didn't come to ask you if you would like to go." Mrs. Cheng Er said, looking at her condescendingly.
In the evening, Guanzhu Sun and the child hurried to the Taiping Palace.
"What? Miss Banqin hasn't come back yet?" she asked.
The Taoist nun guarding the door nodded nervously.
"It's almost dark, why haven't you come back yet?" she said.
"Didn't you say you were going to the city to deliver mooncakes to my father-in-law? I guess he should be back long ago." Guanzhu Sun said, rubbing her hands anxiously, "You call a few senior sisters to go to the city to welcome him."
The Taoist nun responded and walked away quickly, while Sun Guanzhu led the child into Cheng Jiaoniang's yard.
When I entered the door, I saw Cheng Jiaoniang standing on the porch, looking up at the sky.
"Madam." Sun Guanzhu hurriedly saluted and shouted, "Miss Banqin may have gone a long way to buy groceries and hasn't come back yet."
Cheng Jiaoniang retracted her gaze and looked at her.
"No," she said, "She won't be back tonight."
Guanzhu Sun was stunned for a moment, then breathed a sigh of relief.
"It turns out that the lady knows where she is going, she scared me to death." She said, calling the boy to call the senior sisters back.
Cheng Jiaoniang didn't say anything, she just raised her head and continued to look at the sky.
Guanzhu Sun has seen her like this every time he has been here, and he can't help but be a little puzzled.
"Madam, what are you looking at?" She couldn't help but look too.
The sun is setting in the west, and the autumn twilight is thick.
"Look at the sky." Cheng Jiaoniang said.
"My God, what's there to see?" Sun Guanzhu asked.
"It's nothing." Cheng Jiaoniang said, looking away, "It's just that I seemed to like watching it in the past."
before?
Guanzhu Sun was a little confused. Then he saw that Cheng Jiaoniang had turned inward. Although this woman was not a fool, she was always a little weird and different from ordinary people. Guanzhu Sun hurriedly followed her.
"Madam, Miss Banqin is not here, what do you want to eat? I'll let them do it," she said.
"Okay." Cheng Jiaoniang said, holding the table and sitting down on the mat, "I want to eat steamed pork with lotus root, mushrooms and lilies, Qibao vegetarian porridge, and manchurian cakes."
What, what, what? Master Sun was confused. Do you want anything to eat?
This heart-stopping name sounds as dizzying as the music of heaven.
My dear, what does this lady do every day?
"Madam, Madam." Sun Guanzhu shouted hurriedly, looking at the woman who had already sat down with a bit of embarrassment, "I, I don't know how to do it."
"No." Cheng Jiaoniang raised her head and looked at her, "You can learn. Food, clothing, housing, transportation, and food first are the simplest and easiest things."
This is what food, clothing, housing and transportation mean?
Sun Guanzhu seemed to understand but not quite.
When the sky got bright, two Taoist nuns hurriedly walked out of Xuanmiao Temple.
"I said I should stay there, but Master is still worried and insists on guarding it by himself."
"Where did Miss Banqin go? I didn't say a word."
"That's right. Although we don't care about her coming or going, that lady is an idiot. She just left her without saying anything."
"Last night's meal was so exhausting that my arms were still sore from pounding the meat and vegetables."
"What you're doing is just steaming it. I'm going to have trouble making biscuits."
"But it's really delicious. Rich people really know how to eat. How did you come up with it..."
"Go quickly, I don't know what weird things we are going to eat in the morning."
The two of them were talking and walking, and when they were about to climb the mountain, they saw a group of people in front of them.
"What a bad luck. It's only been a few days and there's been another change?"
"Hey, I'm not unlucky this time. That Qingmei is lucky."
"Yes, she is not unlucky, but we are unlucky and have to serve this fool."
"Hey, if you think about it, then Qingmei got this opportunity by following this silly girl, so coming here is not unlucky?"
Two of the girls were laughing and talking in a low voice.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, the group turned their heads to look.
"Good man." The two Taoist nuns saluted.
The group of people ignored it, turned around and continued moving forward.
The two Taoist nuns looked at each other, said nothing, and followed slowly behind.
Soon the group arrived in front of the Taiping Palace. A child in front of the door looked around and was a little dazed when he saw this group of people. When he saw the two Taoist nuns behind him, he came over happily.
"Is Sister Banqin back?" she asked hurriedly.
"You haven't come back yet?" the two Taoist nuns asked back.
After hearing this conversation, the group of people came over.
"Ban Qin?" One of the steward-looking men looked at the three of them and said, "She won't come back."
The two girls in the yard looked around with a bit of disdain, and murmured together from time to time.
"These are the two new girls." The steward said, looking at Guanzhu Sun in front of him.
Guanzhu Sun and the disciples behind him looked surprised.
"What about Miss Banqin?" Sun Guanzhu asked.
"Her, I sent her to Mrs. Zhang's house," the steward said, with a hint of pride.
Slaves at home are objects that can be disposed of at any time. It is normal to sell them or give them to each other.
Guanzhu Sun was silent, feeling a little sad in his heart.
