Xu Yue vacated a room for her cousin Gongsun Yun to live temporarily, so she went with her brother, naturally thinking that Gongsun Yun'er, who was a little older than herself, and her fifteen-year-old maid could take care of herself.

The house is not big, but the two of them are enough.

Gongsun Yun knew that she was here to take refuge, and she didn't ask for anything, even if she had to live alone in a courtyard in Gongsun Wubao before.

Most of the servants of this era did not have their own separate rooms, and the better ones would make a bunk next to the master's bed.

I almost slept directly in the corridor aisle outside the master's room, which was fine in the summer, but in the winter, the cold wind was bleak, and it was really difficult.

And the big girl brought by Gongsun Yun usually sleeps with the master, and she is really close to her service!

This kind of treatment is the top in the rank of servant.

Therefore, Xu Yue only prepared one room, and the master and servant could also live.

But there must be inconvenience, the big girl found that there was no one in the Xu family, and on the first morning when she and the young lady moved to the Xu family, they couldn't find anyone to help them fetch water.

The well in the courtyard of the Xu family is deep, and the rocker pulley is used to draw water, and the big girl doesn't know what this device is for, so she directly uses a rope to put the wooden bucket down to draw water, and naturally it can't be hit for half a day.

Of course, changing to a familiar hand is definitely not the result, but this big girl doesn't have much strength, and she doesn't have to do such rough work at Gongsun's house on weekdays.

The eldest girl felt very aggrieved, but she had to struggle to carry half a bucket of water to boil water for the master to wash.

Then, she couldn't find anyone to ask where the kitchen was.

Gongsun Yun got up early, and when she saw that the maid had not come in with water for a long time, she got out of bed and went outside to look, and found that her maid was looking blankly in the courtyard like a headless fly.

"What's wrong?" Gongsun Yun asked suspiciously.

The big girl didn't expect that she had alarmed her master, so she hurriedly shook her head and said that it was okay.

But Gongsun Yun still saw a hint of something wrong in her reddened eyes, stepped forward and touched the water in the bucket, and asked in surprise, "Why is it still cold?" Didn't get hot water? ”

The eldest maid finally couldn't help but complain softly with red eyes: "Miss, in such a big yard, the slave maid can't find a subordinate, the slave maid has just arrived, and she hasn't found where the fire room is, so she asked the young lady to wait in the house, and she was wronged." ”

Hearing this, Gongsun Yun patted his head and said with annoyance: "I forgot to tell you that my cousin's family has no descendants." ”

"Huh?" The big girl looked at her young lady in disbelief, the Xu family had such a big pomp, and there was no one to serve?

Gongsun Yun looked at her maid's aggrieved appearance, and then caught a glimpse of the wet well in the courtyard, and already guessed what had just happened.

"You've never fetched water from a well, have you?" Gongsun Yun asked softly.

Her voice is always gentle and soft, if she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, the big girl wouldn't have believed that her master would have made a divorce.

The eldest girl nodded honestly, seeing that the young lady looked calm, she was embarrassed to be wronged.

Gongsun Yun thinks about the living habits of her cousin's family, likes to do her own things, and doesn't like others to interfere, so there should be utensils for boiling water in this yard.

Thinking so, Gongsun Yun looked for it in the courtyard, the small courtyard was not big, there were three rooms, and the left and right sides were locked, like a warehouse.

The middle room was where she lived, and Gongsun Yun went back to the room to look for a while, and saw a clay stove behind the door that was up to knees.

And by the stove, there was a bag of charcoal in burlap and chopped short wood.

The flint and steel are on the clay stove.

Gongsun Yun was overjoyed and hurriedly called the big girl to come over and make a fire to boil water.

The master and servant were in a hurry, and finally got the hot water for washing their faces.

It's just, where should I eat this breakfast?

Fortunately, the Xu family did not forget them, and as soon as the master and servant had washed up, a short-haired man named Ah Er walked in and asked them to eat.

In the old mansion of the Gongsun family, no male servant has ever come in the young lady's boudoir, and Ah Er's sudden appearance startled the maid a lot.

Gongsun Yun is okay, she has long known that the Xu family's living habits are different, and she has been to the school before, so she doesn't care so much.

But the accompanying big maid was so panicked that she resented the Xu family, although she couldn't say that the main family relatives were not, but in the matter of male and female defense, the big maid felt that she had a natural moral advantage.

"How can there be adult foreign men in and out of the young lady's boudoir at will." On the way to dinner, the eldest girl couldn't help but complain beside Gongsun Yun that the Xu family's hospitality was wrong.

Gongsun Yun shook his head, "It's okay, Xujiazhuang is like this, there is no such terrible male and female defense here." ”

Terrible?

The big girl nodded, it was indeed terrifying!

But what is terrible is not the defense of men and women, but the fact that Xujiazhuang does not follow etiquette!

Gongsun Yun turned his head and glanced at the big girl, seeing that her face was unacceptable, and suddenly regretted bringing her over.

I knew that this close-fitting big girl was so old-fashioned, she should have come by herself, and no one would bring it.

But Gongsun Yun also knows that this is not to blame the big girl, but the fault of this era.

In this era, women have become monsters who can only follow the rules! And women don't know it, and they are proud of it, so as to gain a part of the right to continue to use this theory to reprimand women who do not obey the rules.

It seems that only when the "world is in harmony" will they, the women who occupy a certain right, feel satisfied.

Thinking of this, Gongsun Yun was a little depressed, and her expression was not very good-looking.

She had never thought of reforming the people around her before, because the books given to her by Yue'er's cousin said that if you want to change or overthrow, you must first master strong capital.

Otherwise, the end must be tragic.

In the backyard managed by Grandmother Yan, she obviously can't get any power yet.

Whether it is the housekeeper mother-in-law sent by Grandmother Yan, or the obedient and docile eldest sister, she has obtained much more capital than her.

The only person she can win over is her brother.

But now that she has grown up, she can't stay with her brother all the time, and they have divided the yard, one in the east and the other in the west, and it is getting harder and harder to meet.

In the past two years of not going to the clan study, Gongsun Yun often wondered whether he was Gongsun Yun or the second lady of the second room of the Gongsun family.

While eating and using what she eats at home, she still wants to get some things for herself, such as continuing to go to school, not making a marriage so early, and learning to be a housekeeper and a royal person.

Gongsun Yun is very conflicted, she doesn't know whether she should be herself, or should she be a filial Gongsun family descendant of the second room of the young lady, lest Grandmother Yan always say that she is unkind, selfish, disobedient, ignorant, and does not know how to dedicate herself to the family.
