Chapter 003: Laundry Bureau

She entered the laundry bureau with all the female dependents, and was forced to work on the first day, without even resting, and kept working, and there was a special person to watch them, and if they were lazy, they would be beaten.

In this kind of life, they don't treat them as human beings, they beat them when they want, scold them when they want, and they don't have any self-esteem and personality protection at all.

Eh, in ancient times, there was no personal security, let alone any dignity and status.

Thinking of this, I was indignant in my heart, but there was no way, who called Wu Meiniang just a woman, without any power to refute.

Besides, this is the territory of the palace, where the masters of Ouchi are checked at all levels, how can she be allowed to go wild easily. Moreover, her identity is very special, and all kinds of ugly signs on her face make her particularly conspicuous, so her every move is watched.

A few days later, she spent a dark day with the person who had been relegated to the rank of maidservant, either beaten and scolded, or kept working, and even did not get food, and the most hateful thing was that there was food, but it was disgusting.

She slowly got used to such days, isn't it just hardship, she hasn't eaten, she is not Wu Xiangguo's daughter now, but a little ant who can be strangled to death at any time.

Wu Xiangguo has long been killed because of his rebellion against the new emperor, although he is not Wu Xiangguo's own daughter, but the owner of this body is Wu Xiangguo's personal daughter, and he will feel uncomfortable after all.

Ay! This is fate, the joke God played on her is too big, let her travel to ancient times, but let her go through these things, is this favoring her, or punishing her.

Curled up in the firewood room, she was full of disarray, no, she wanted to find a way to escape from here, she couldn't be locked up here for the rest of her life, her life was constrained by others, her days were stared at, even pigs and dogs were not as good.

How can she say that she is also a person who has traveled through the 21st century, how can she be willing to do this kind of life of strong men and low women, she is unwilling, so she thinks of a way to escape from the long-term plan.

Bow your head and ponder, now, it is necessary to let these people stop imprisoning her, and she must be free, only when she is free, everything will be easy to do.

Suddenly, there was a cough next to her, and she turned her head to look at the person who was coughing, it was a very young girl, her whole body was dirty, her thin body was weak, and she could fall down at any time.

She stood up and walked to her side, and asked with concern: "Close your body to the firewood, and the whole person will be curled into a ball, so that it will be warmer and don't get cold." ”

Then he sat down next to her, took her head into his chest, and took a deep breath; "If you get cold, no one will help you, and you will be the one who suffers when the time comes."

She kept the little girl's body close to herself because she could warm herself and pass on the warmth of her body to her so that she wouldn't catch a cold. Now their identity is that they have a cold, and no one will care.

"Thank you." The little girl looked at her gratefully, then closed her eyes and rested.

She looked around blankly and sighed, this is really a bottomless pit, it's easy to get in, but it's hard to get out!

Close her eyes and rest, tomorrow she should come or come back, she should accept or accept, she has to have a good attitude to face those difficulties in life.

After several days of detention and supervision, gradually, they were all handed over to Mama Rong, the housekeeper who washed the clothes, to be in charge of laundry.

"Hurry up, are you still grinding? Do you really think you're still the eldest lady now? Everyone knows how to eat and drink, but they don't care about work, and tell you that if you are lazy, you won't even want to eat today. ”

Mama Rong roared sternly, and she was holding a long whip in her hand, which made people daunting, if anyone moved slowly, they would be whipped mercilessly, so no one dared to slack off.

"Hurry up, you're grinding, I'll let you finish washing all the clothes here, if you can't finish washing, don't think about eating today, don't want to go out."

Mama Rong saw the little girl rubbing on the side, so she whipped the whip mercilessly on the little girl's body. The little girl screamed twice in pain.

Due to her young age and physical discomfort, it was normal for her to move slowly. When she saw this, she quickly walked over and picked up the little girl.

Because this little girl is the one who slept in her arms last night. That's why she wanted to help her.

"Eh, you ugly woman, do your own thing, don't be a good person, don't hear me." When Mama Rong saw her, her face changed, and she shouted angrily with a serious attitude.

"She's not feeling well, don't hit her, okay?" Wu Meiniang can't see anyone being bullied, she is also a woman, and she has a soft heart, how can she look at it dryly and not help.

"It's uncomfortable, you really think you're here to enjoy it, I don't care if you're comfortable or not, when you enter here, you have to do things seriously, if you don't take it seriously, this is the end."

Rong Mama scolded angrily, and as soon as the words fell, the whip hit Wu Meiniang's body mercilessly, again and again.

"Hmm..." Wu Meiniang gritted her teeth and endured the labor pain from her body, she couldn't say that Rong Mama's strength was really great, every time she hit, her body was like being pricked by a needle, and it hurt on the tip of her heart.

"Let you get ahead, call you kind, do you really think that you are the queen of Zhao State, or the daughter of a family, just like you, give it to others as cattle and horses, and others don't want it."

Rong Mama didn't know where the hatred came from, the whipping became more and more ruthless, and the beating and scolding of her became more and more severe.

And Wu Meiniang also noticed that this Rong Mama seemed to have a great hatred for her, and while beating back, she was chanting a scold that she didn't understand, anyway, she offended Rong Mama, and now Rong Mama is beating her hard.

"Sister, get out of the way! Don't do this, if you keep going like this, you'll be killed. The little girl saw that she was protected in her arms by Wu Meiniang, her eyes were full of tears of gratitude, but she said distressedly.

"Don't be afraid, I'm fine, don't talk, you be nice." Wu Meiniang smiled weakly, this little beat is okay for her, isn't it just a little sin, the big deal is death, and if you die, you can go back to modern times, why not.

Anyway, she just can't see anyone being bullied, and she would rather the suffering of those innocent people come to her.

"No, sister, if you go on like this, you will be killed." The little girl began to get anxious, really afraid that Wu Meiniang would be beaten to death.

And Wu Meiniang also felt that her body was like being split in half, half of the pain had no intuition, and half of it was still adhering to firm confidence, always telling herself that if she wanted to hold on, she was Wu Meiniang.

Just kidding, Wu Meiniang is a famous figure in history, a generation of empresses, no matter how hard and tired she is, no matter how painful she is, she has to persevere, no matter how she says it, she must be worthy of the name Wu Meiniang.

"Oh, such a hard bone, I can't imagine that you can afford to fight so much, then well, I see what else you can resist." Seeing that she was still protecting the little girl in her arms, Mama Rong put away her whip and said with a sneer.

Looking at the clothes around her, Mama Rong commanded coldly:

"Don't think about sleeping and eating today, since you like to get ahead so much, then you will wash everyone's clothes here today, and if you can't wash them tomorrow morning, you are ready to come to see me."

After Mama Rong finished speaking, she turned to the maid behind her; "Xiao Zhen, you are optimistic about her, if there is anything wrong, tell me immediately."

"Yes, Mama." The palace maid Xiaozhen bowed her head and replied. looked at Wu Meiniang's eyes, more smug and sarcastic.

"All right, all go down! Someone has done the work for you today, and you can all enjoy it today, but some people will suffer, but this is all her own doing. ”

Mama Rong announced loudly, everyone lowered their heads, and no one dared to accuse Mama Rong of her orders.

"Wu Meiniang, I want to see how you finish washing these clothes?" Mama Rong dropped a mocking word, then turned around and left arrogantly.

And the others also left, not wanting to get into trouble with her.

Wu Meiniang smiled helplessly, looked at the little girl in her arms, and said with concern: "You can go back too!" Remember to take a good rest, don't get tired, your body can't help but be tired anymore. ”

"No, sister, I'm going to accompany you." The little girl wept and wept and was reluctant to leave.

"Silly girl, I'm fine, obedient, you go quickly." She shook her head and refused, Mama Rong spoke and asked her to wash alone, where would she be willing to let others help.

"Obedient, remember, in this kind of place, if you want to live, the first thing you have to do is to be obedient, you know?" She told the little girl, hoping that the little girl would understand her good intentions.

The little girl nodded as if she didn't understand, then stood up with her head bowed and walked away reluctantly.

And she also breathed a sigh of relief, although her body hurt a lot, but there was sweetness in her heart, because she helped someone. This is the happiness of giving oneself and helping others!

"Empress Wu, get up quickly! If it's late, you can't finish washing, and you can eat this pain. The palace maid Xiaozhen walked up to her, pinched her shoulder with her fingers, and urged her to get up quickly.

She didn't cry out for pain, because she knew that this little Jane was not a good person. can follow a cruel person like Mama Rong, and can still be a cronie, how can it be an ordinary good type.

"I know." She endured the discomfort and got up and began to work. Looking around, there are so many clothes, and if you want to wash them all tomorrow morning, it seems that you have to refuel.

Under the sun, her petite body was constantly busy, washing clothes here for a while, drying clothes there, and fetching water for a while.

She is the only one in the huge laundry bureau, and the hot sun is still ruthlessly enveloping her, even if she is an iron body, no matter how powerful her mind is, it is difficult to hold on.

Finally, she couldn't resist the limits of her body and fell to the ground, she wanted to speak, but the corners of her chapped mouth opened and closed again.

"Get up, don't play dead, get up quickly, if you can't finish washing, you look good." When Xiao Zhen saw her fall to the ground, she didn't have any sympathy, but kicked her waist with her foot.

"Hmm—" she endured the pain in a muffled voice, her already unconscious consciousness awakened by the sudden pain. She gritted her teeth again and got up, strong enough to face everything in front of her.

"Hurry up and wash, don't rub anymore, you have time to rub, I don't have time to rub with you, keep rubbing, the whip in my hand is not vegetarian."

Zhen'er ordered viciously, and she didn't know when there was an extra whip in her hand, which was obviously the one in Mama Rong's hand before. Wu Meiniang glanced at it lightly and began to wash clothes. No matter how hard you work, you can't ask for help, and you can't be cowardly.

It was getting dark, and she was still scrubbing by the laundry pool, not eating anything, not even drinking water. Even when she was dizzy, she was warning herself to persevere.

"Eh, I'm telling you, you wash well, you can't rest, tomorrow morning you haven't finished washing, you will feel better." It was already the middle of the night, and Zhen'er on the side couldn't support the yawn, obviously tired, and left after giving her instructions.
