Ma Ya was beaten this time, she first endured it according to what her mother said, but Ma Ya's patience was limited, and she couldn't bear it before she cried.

Before Ma Ya was seven years old, before she came to Sun's mansion, she didn't know that she had to hide from being beaten, because she had never been beaten, and she had never seen any child beaten.

However, after she tasted the first time she was beaten, she realized that it was so painful to be beaten!

Ma Ya cried, but Ma Ya's desire to survive made her know that she couldn't patronize and cry, it was useless to cry, in order not to be beaten, she had to do things well.

In the past two months, Ma Yaxue has worked very hard.

For example, Ma Ya learned to wash clothes, she watched from the side of the adults, and then reached into the bucket with her little hand to help the adults wash and learn to wash together.

Ma Ya knew that it was better to be beaten than to fight, Ma Ya didn't understand it before she came to Sun Mansion, but after she came to Sun Mansion, she knew that it would be so painful to be beaten.

Before that, my mother once told her that after arriving at someone's house, she must be diligent, only hard work can save her life, and she must be cautious.

Before her mother took her to the street to intercept the uncle of the Sun family that day, she had already explained to Ma Ya and asked her to stay in the Sun Mansion, and now, only she is the safest in the Sun Mansion.

Mother asked Ma Ya not to mention her past to anyone, tens of thousands!

So Ma Ya chose to be taciturn, where she could not speak, she tried not to speak.

Ma Ya's mother is thirty years old and is not Ma Ya's own mother.

But in order to let Ma Ya accept from the bottom of her heart that she is Ma Ya's mother, this woman named Feng Qinghui is under the bridge every night, or lying in an abandoned broken temple, instilling in Ma Ya that she is Ma Ya's mother.

"What's your mother's last name?"

"The surname is Feng!"

"What's it called?"

"It's called Feng Qinghui!"

"That's not right!" The emaciated woman said to Ma Ya: "You must remember, if someone asks, you will say that your mother's surname is Feng, and you don't have a name, do you know?" Don't mention my name! ”

"Hmm!"

"No matter when, who asks you what your name is, you must not say that your name is Wan'er, you know?"

"Hmm!"

••••••

Ma Ya was in Sun's Mansion, and after being beaten, she began to learn to observe words and looks, and she knew that she would act according to other people's faces!

Wu's mother looked at the teapot, she poured tea for Wu's mother, and when Wu's mother walked out of the yard, she opened the courtyard door for Wu's mother.

Wu's mother said: "If you are a subordinate, you must have a job in your eyes!" ”

Ma Ya took it all to heart.

Two months passed, and on this day, Ma Ya got up early, washed up, swept the floor in the courtyard of the house, and wiped all the tables.

After breakfast, Wu's mother came, and Wu's mother explained to Ma Ya again, telling her to take her to see the eldest grandmother or other masters later, and she must make a big salute and kneel, and Ma Ya wrote it down.

Wu's mother took Ma Ya to the eldest grandmother, and was told by the little maid that the eldest grandmother had gone to the old lady, and Wu Ma took Ma Ya to the old lady's place.

Ma Ya stood at the door, and when she looked up, she was facing a gray-haired old lady sitting on the right hand chair opposite.

Ma Ya and the old lady looked at each other for about a few seconds, and were discovered by Wu's mother, who felt that she was rude, and pulled her into the hall with her hand, and lowered her head.

The moment she lowered her head just now, she swept it with her peripheral vision, and there were probably a dozen women in the hall, focusing their eyes on her.

"Whose child is this?" The old lady sitting at the top asked.

"The little girl that the uncle bought!" Mother Wu stepped forward, lowered her hands, and replied with a smile.

The old lady sighed, drooped her eyelids, picked up the teacup on the table, took a sip of tea, covered it, and still put it back in its place!

Ma Ya was already on her knees on the ground.

"It's the old lady sitting on here, please say hello to the old lady!" Mother Wu looked at Ma Ya kneeling on the ground and introduced in a stern tone.

"Greetings to the old lady!" Ma Ya kowtowed busily.

The old lady sighed, turned to the grandmother standing below, and said.

"How many girls did you buy in the house?"

"This is not specially bought in the house, old lady!"

Before the grandmother could speak, the lady who was sitting in the first chair below interjected.

She was dressed in homely casual clothes, in her forties, turned her head to the old lady and explained with a smile: "This is what the uncle met on the road, their mother and daughter stopped the uncle's horse and kowtowed to the uncle, begging the uncle to take her in, you know, the uncle is kind-hearted, and he thinks she is pitiful, so he spent five taels of silver to buy her!" ”

"Oh!" The old lady sighed, raised her head, and looked at Ma Ya carefully: "It looks like Zhou Zheng, but she has lost some weight!" ”

When everyone saw the old lady say this, they all looked at Ma Ya and nodded slightly in agreement.

Mother Wu laughed and said, "Don't tell the old lady that when she came, she was even thinner, and it was dark!" ”

"Even if she is begging with her mother, the wind and rain, and the sun, how can this not be dark?!" The eldest lady said.

"That's it!" The old lady said to the horse who was kneeling on the ground, "Get up!" ”

Mother Wu was stunned for a moment when she saw Ma Ya, looked at herself, and said, "The old lady asked you to get up, and you got up to talk!" ”

Ma Ya got up from the mat and stood beside Wu's mother with her head down.

"What's your name?" The old lady asked.

"Ma Ya!"

"It's called 'Mom'? Oops, mom, what's the name?! Standing behind the eldest lady was a young grandmother, in her twenties, brightly dressed, she was the grandmother who managed the family, she teased.

The old lady laughed, and the old lady said: "Don't make fun of her, small families and small families, girls generally don't have names, what are they called, big girls, two girls, three girls or something, don't scare her!" ”

Everyone laughed, and the eldest lady turned around and glanced at the eldest grandmother, but she couldn't help it, poofed, laughed, and smacked her: "It's not a good shape!" ”

The old lady asked Ma Ya again.

"How old are you this year?"

"Seven years old!"

"Who did you come out with? Where is your home? ”

"I came out with my mother, my family is from Chenjiagou!"

"Chen Jiagou? Who knows where Chenjiagou is, and asks you where the big place is? The grandmother chimed in.

Ma Ya glanced up at the eldest grandmother, and immediately lowered her head again.

"Huh?" When the old lady saw that Ma Ya was silent, she looked at Mother Wu suspiciously.

Wu's mother hurriedly smiled: "I also asked her, and she knew that she was from Chenjiagou, and she couldn't tell which province, which state, and which county she was from!" ”

"Oh!" The old lady nodded, and then asked, "What about your father?" ”

"Daddy is sick!"

"What disease?"

“••••••”

"I heard it's tuberculosis!" The eldest lady said.

"Tuberculosis?" The old lady frowned.

"Old lady, I also asked, the uncle said that their mother and daughter have been out for a long time, if she was infected, she would have been infected a long time ago, and his father should have been isolated!"

The old lady nodded, and didn't ask anything more.

Mother Wu looked at the grandmother, and the grandmother said to the old lady and the three ladies sitting in front of her.

"Xiaocui with Lian'er is also older now, and it should be out of the cabinet this year, otherwise, let her fill Xiaocui's vacancy, and put her in Lian'er's room in the future?"

The three ladies didn't say anything, so the old lady glanced at the third lady and said, "It's okay, Lian'er also lacks a companion!" Third wife, what do you think? ”

The third lady smiled and said, "It's all up to the old lady to decide!" ”

"Well, that's it!"

The old lady turned to the horse in the ground again.

"After you pass, you have to serve your master well, and you have to listen to the sisters in the house, do you hear?"

"Hear me, old lady!" Ma Ya whispered.
