Chapter 418
Just when Zhuxiu finally felt that he might be able to relax in the future.
The brother and sister-in-law calculated that she was almost at the age of marriage, and if she was allowed to marry, she would have to pay for her to buy a dowry if she stayed at home.
So I simply found someone to sell her into the Xu Mansion as a girl. It is still a long-term worker, so that you can get more silver.
The brother and sister-in-law are extremely calculating, calculating the last bit of value she had left in that cold home, and also calculating the only remaining feelings she has for that family.
Xingyu smiled and said softly: "What is not worthy, just say some stupid things."
My young lady said that everyone deserves something better. ”
Alas, although she and Zhuxiu are both maids, Xingyu feels that she is still much happier than Zhuxiu.
At least I grew up being loved by my father and mother since I was a child. Even now with Miss, Miss treats her like a sister, and she has always been very happy.
And Zhuxiu's appearance is obviously that he has not felt a little pampered since he was a child. That's why I was moved by someone else's words of concern for one or two words.
In the end, people who have lived a hard life since childhood will feel that they are not worthy just because of one sentence.
Zhu Xiu's eyes were full of tears, and he only lowered his head and didn't speak again.
She was afraid that as soon as she opened her mouth, tears would not help but fall.
If you can't help crying, Sister Xingyu is such a kind person who treats her so well. will definitely bother to comfort her, then she will cause trouble for Sister Xingyu.
I'm already so useless, so don't cause trouble to others.
Xingyu patted Zhuxiu's shoulder and said, "I see that you got up early this morning, why don't you go back to the room now to make up for sleep?"
Rest assured, there's basically nothing to do during the day. If you want to sleep, just sleep in peace.
Miss, I can serve you alone, you don't have to worry about it. If you're asleep, I can feed you the rabbits.
Look at this book in my hand. It was my young lady who just sent me out. Said they wouldn't let me wander around the house. would argue with her to read, so she gave me a copy and asked me to come back and read it. ”
In fact, last night, she heard Zhuxiu sobbing quietly next door to her.
Although she could hear it, Zhuxiu was afraid that she would hear it, and she was already trying her best to hide herself from making a sound, but in the quiet night, there was an intermittent sobbing sound. Still woke her up.
No way, she has been sleeping very lightly since she was a child. That's why she dared to sleep back in her room by herself at night, instead of keeping vigil in front of the lady's door.
For she would wake up at the slightest movement in the night, and if Miss wanted to look for her, she would have to call her name out loud.
Zhuxiu is probably really sad, she listened to Zhuxiu's somewhat suppressed cry for a long time, and she didn't feel irritable, but only felt a little sorry for her.
After all, people who don't even dare to cry out loud. really digested all the grievances by himself.
When she used to cry, she always had to cry in front of A-Niang, so that A-Niang came to coax herself in distress before she stopped.
And Zhuxiu is a person who has no one to coax. So I could only cry secretly in the middle of the night.
But she wasn't going to tell Zhuxiu about it.
Otherwise, according to Zhuxiu's character, he would definitely feel guilty and blame himself. I don't think I should cry in the middle of the night.
So Xingyu never mentioned it, pretending not to know anything.
Zhuxiu looked at the carefully bound notebook in Xingyu's hand, and said with some envy: "It turns out that Sister Xingyu still knows words?" It's amazing.
Ever since I was a child, my family was poor, and I didn't read much. I don't know a single big word. ”
Her family is indeed very poor, so even a patriarchal person like Daddy did not send her brother to study in a private school. She's a useless girl in Daddy's mouth. Don't even think about reading.
After all, the money Daddy earns as a coolie is only enough for their family's daily expenses, and they can barely buy some rice and noodles to make ends meet. It's good not to be hungry. Reading was a whimsical for their poor children.
Xingyu smiled and said proudly: "That's right, I read books when I was a child."
Our Shen family has set up its own private school, and all the subordinates and children who work in the Shen family can go to the private school to study for free.
My father and aunt have always worked in the Shen family. So I was able to go and read too.
After a few years of study in a private school, we were judged by the gentlemen according to our respective strengths. Arranged in the Shen family's industry, a variety of positions.
If you read books exceptionally well, you can go to the Shen family's shop to be a bookkeeper or something. If you have a flexible mind, you can speak, and you can read. Maybe you can go to the Shen family's inn restaurant to be a housekeeper. It's amazing.
It's a pity that I've been an elm head who can't read books since I was a child. The mind is not very flexible, and the mouth is not very pleasing, so he can't do all kinds of exquisite things.
Therefore, I can neither be a bookkeeper nor a restaurant manager.
After reading in a private school for so many years, I can only barely understand some words. ”
When her father and aunt sent her to the Shen family's private school to study, she was full of joy and hoped that she could study and make a name for herself and give herself a good future.
In any case, it is much better than serving people day after day.
It's a pity that she is really not the material for reading, after all, dragons give birth to dragons, and phoenixes give birth to phoenixes. The son of the mouse will make holes. Daddy and Auntie are the ones who can't read books. Naturally, she is not much stronger.
After so many years of private schooling, she can recognize some words. That's it, Mr. Erti ordered them to read and write every day. Otherwise, she may not even recognize these words.
As for the plan to settle accounts or something, she has taken classes as if she has never attended. I don't know anything about the numbers. I can't even dial the abacus. Not to mention any reckoning.
So she still failed to fulfill Daddy and Auntie's wish, and she couldn't be a bookkeeper. I can only do this kind of work of serving.
Fortunately, her luck is not bad. Since childhood, I have learned some self-defense moves with my father. This year, because of some kung fu, I was fortunate to be selected by the eldest prince and arranged to serve the young lady closely.
It's much more comfortable than being a bookkeeper. Staying by Miss's side, you don't have to think much at all.
All the big and small things around the young lady were properly arranged by several sons. She just needs to wait for the young lady to freshen up every day.
