39. Headache
The second old man turned around hatefully, and refused to even ask the doctor to treat Aunt Zhou's injuries, and because Aunt Zhou had a wound on her head, the cane punishment to be beaten was also sent. The carriage of the Liu family carried Aunt Zhou and a mother-in-law who helped Aunt Zhou enter and drove to Zhuangzi. Later, I heard that no one in Zhuangzi was willing to pay for Aunt Zhou's injuries to be treated by a doctor, and he was even reluctant to bandage her a little. Later, there was no news from Zhuangzi's side, but I heard that Aunt Zhou still couldn't survive in the end......
Liu Man'er instinctively sensed that things were not good, although Liu Dong'er often cried when she was a child, she has been much better in the past two years. Even if you cry, you only skim a few tears, but the environment where tears can't be stopped like this has never been there.
Frightened, she wanted to reach out and touch her face, but Liu Man'er felt that she had no strength in her body, her body was soft, and her stomach was empty, so hungry that she couldn't feel hungry for a while. Subconsciously parted his mouth and wanted to beg for food, but he didn't want to separate his mouth just now, and a stream of liquid flowed down his cheeks, and Liu Man'er was stunned.
Liu Dong'er's tears fell again, this time she hid her face and cried sadly, crying while also saying some incoherent words: "Aunt Zhou, damn it! My sister is a good person, it's always bad to see her...... Such a person is simply dead, so as not to come back to trouble others! Woo woo, girl...... You are only eight years old, what can you do in the future? Unfortunate sister, grandmother has already promised the Zhang family to withdraw from the marriage...... How will I live my life after this......
Liu Man'er's mind was blank, although she could hear what Liu Dong'er said, but it seemed that she could understand every word of these words, and when they were connected together, they were really words.
Whether the marriage of the Zhang family was annulled was not caused by the wife of the Zhang family, but by the old lady who sent someone to say it. Moreover, the old lady did not agree to Liu Man'er's marriage with the second young master of the Zhang family, only saying that the previous marriage was invalid. made Mrs. Zhang's family nervous for a long time after getting the information, for fear that she would be blamed on the Liu family. In the end, under the confrontation of the old lady of the Zhang family, Mrs. Zhang still handed the second son's Geng post to the Liu family, saying that she had to marry the Liu family for everything.
It's the end of the year again, I'm afraid it's the most complete time the Liu family has arrived in recent years, but there are not a few complete years left.
After the New Year, the lobby sister is a thirteen-year-old lady, even if Liu Dong'er is still young, then she is ten years old. Girls are fifteen years old and will generally marry out in the same year as they are married, so that the lobby sister can stay for two more years at most, and Liu Donger is five years.
Because the two young ladies of the Liu family were engaged, the dowry was also put on the table.
In fact, whether it is the eldest wife or Liu Zhang's family, they have already prepared for the dowry in the early years, which is the difference between a concubine and a concubine. As a concubine, she has her biological mother to take care of her, even if the public does not give the dowry money, her mother can also give a set of expensive dowry. Even like the eldest lady and Liu Zhang, they don't look down on the idea of marrying the princess at all.
But what if it's a concubine? Don't keep saying that your mother treats her harshly, everyone will love her own children, and there is no one in ten thousand who can treat everyone equally. As for the descendants of the concubine, it is already thankful that there is no poison. As for the concubine's dowry, the one in the princess must be indispensable, and the objects next to it can also have the kind-hearted mother-in-law to add one or two pieces to fill the pomp, but any more is the expectation.
In addition to this dowry, the housekeeper's skills must also be learned first. Naturally, this is talking about Liu Dong'er, the lobby sister has already learned the housekeeper director a few years before returning to the Liu family, although it may not be good, but it is no problem to get started. Besides, although the lobby sister is also married to the son of the grandson, but which family's new daughter-in-law is the first to take care of the family as soon as she enters the door? This is to learn some in the mother's family in order to get started more leisurely in the future, as for learning, you have to wait for the marriage to learn with the mother-in-law.
It's just that the lobby sister has already been able to get started, but Liu Donger doesn't have any experience in this area.
Some things have some truth, think about it carefully, those smart people can understand it after thinking about it once or twice, and Liu Dong'er can figure it out after thinking about it a few more times. Like the housekeeper director, if there is no one to teach you and try it on your own, I am afraid that it will be really difficult.
looked at the lobby sister with admiration, the eldest lady was born in a century-old family, and she has learned a good skill. It's a pity that Liu Zhang's nature is weak and he doesn't have any skills, let alone teaching the housekeeper's resume, if you let her take care of the house by herself for a day, she can make a big mess for you. Fortunately, Liu Dong'er didn't admire it for too long, because the old lady opened her mouth.
is related to the granddaughter who grew up, the lobby sister is naturally nothing in the old lady's mind, and the old lady also knows that this is not the time to blame the eldest wife, no matter how much she is dissatisfied, the eldest Taiyuan is always the inheritor of the Liu family, and no one can erase this.
Watching the eldest lady teach the resume and secrets of the lobby sister housekeeper director day by day, and teaching it hand in hand, and Liu Dong'er just watched from the side every time, the old lady felt very uncomfortable in her heart. Have the heart to take her personally, but the old lady doesn't feel like she has the energy. Also, she is old, and she has hurt a lot of gods for Liu Man'er's affairs before, and she holds on to power, where can she still teach Liu Dong'er a lesson? In desperation, she can only compromise with the eldest wife.
Divide part of the housekeeper's authority to the eldest wife, provided that she helps teach Liu Dong'er a lesson. The eldest lady naturally didn't agree, not only did she agree, but also said a lot of good things to flatter the old lady, but she smoothed out the injustice in the old lady's heart.
Naturally, Liu Donger also got her wish and first learned to be a housekeeper with the eldest wife.
Although this housekeeper seems to be quite easy, it is really difficult to learn it.
Liu Dong'er is literate, literacy does not mean that he can understand the account book, and many things have to be learned again. Fortunately, Liu Dong'er has this perseverance, although she is not smart herself, but God cherishes stupidity. When she encountered a word she didn't know, a problem that wasn't clear, she ran to the void space and thought to death, and she had to find out if she searched for dry intestines. Although this learning method is so stupid, I have to admit that this method is quite effective for Liu Donger. After a while, even she was aware of it, her mind was spinning faster and faster, her thoughts about the problem became clearer and clearer, and the mysteries that she had spent a lot of time pondering and meditating on became more and more forgetful, and almost remembered them.
After seeing Liu Dong'er's speed increase, even no worse than the lobby sister, the old lady finally felt at ease, she didn't know how much effort Liu Dong'er put in behind her back, she only felt that the eldest lady was not hiding her selfishness, and her heart recognized this eldest daughter-in-law who was not close to her. Slowly, little by little, the old lady transferred the authority at hand to the eldest lady. In addition to being pleasantly surprised, the eldest lady also first gave the lucky star Liu Dong'er some small authority, such as managing the Liu family's needlework room and the like.
The Liu family has a needlework room, and there are also maidservants who are good at female popularity that they specially bought. Every season, the Liu family will let the needlework room add clothes to the masters, of course, the people also have it, but it is not so dense.
Of course, if you are not satisfied with the needlework room of your apartment, you can also pay for it yourself, the old lady has never stopped this before, only that if you have money, you will be done yourself. This made Aunt Zhou, who was quite favored at the time, the most dissatisfied, she had no money but she didn't want to see Liu Zhang's and Liu Dong'er walk over with heavy makeup every time. In her previous life, this state continued, until Liu Zhang was afraid of her, so she either didn't go inside to make clothes, or she did it with Aunt Zhou's share.
It's just that something like this will never happen again in this life.
Liu Dong'er took over the sewing room, mainly not for the master's clothes every season, the master of the Liu family is not much, and it is still very idle to make such a few sets of clothes every season, and no one dares to fool the master. You must know that the master does not wear the clothes made in the needlework room, but there are personal maidservants around the master. Those handmaidens are the most eye-catching, even if the master is not porridge, they must be carefully investigated one by one, and once they notice a flaw, they will not be accommodating.
Don't dare to fool the master, it doesn't mean that you don't dare to fool the servant girl. There are many descendants of the Liu family, and there are many children in the family, and the relationship between them is intertwined. There are also those self-righteous sons of the family, relying on their noble status, and they are the first to bully the newly bought subordinates. Those subordinates who bought from it generally do not have a high status, and they have no relatives and no reason in the Liu family, and they are the most casual when they are bullied. Therefore, there are often times when the seasons change, and there are new clothes under the hair, but you can often see people wearing old clothes.
What Liu Dong'er has to do is to do this part of the matter, to tidy up the sewing room.
Therefore, the eldest lady handed over the matter of the sewing room to Liu Dong'er, which also had her considerations. The sewing room is not as good as the kitchen, and the oil and water are enough to do things, and they are all old people. In this sewing room, there are generally people under the age of 30, there is no way, once this person is over 30 years old, his eyes are much worse, and there is no way to continue to stay in the sewing room. You must know that even if you don't do it yourself, you must have enough vision to check whether the clothes made by this person are good.
In addition, the oil and water in the needlework room is really almost gone, even if Liu Dong'er takes all the blame for everything here, they will be sent to other places at most, maybe those people will be grateful for Liu Dong'er! In this way, Liu Dong'er will not be troubled by the servants in the future.
Overall, the eldest lady is quite good, provided you don't get in her way, of course. Suppose one day, you have a conflict with her strengths, it will be terrible, the eldest lady is ruthless, and she will not lose to Liu Dong'er.
What makes Liu Dong'er worthy of honor is that the eldest lady is a friend and not an enemy with her at this time, otherwise it would really be enough for her to have a headache.
