The King's Concubine_The Masked Feast【Complete】(6)

Mrs. Li shouted from the side: "Su Huiniang, hurry up and send your sister to the official. She actually killed someone..."

Su Huiniang was already in a mess, and her mother-in-law was still adding to the chaos. She yelled: "Shut up!" She pulled Yao Niang to the bed, "You pack up and take Xiaobao away quickly. I'll let your brother-in-law take care of you." Send you to the countryside and hide for a while..."

Yao Niang wanted to cry and laugh at the same time, and couldn't help but pull her sister, "Sister, I didn't kill anyone..."

"You will definitely have to suffer in the countryside, but it is better than going to prison..." Su Huiniang suddenly reacted and asked: "What did you say? You didn't kill anyone, then she..."

"I scratched her with scissors, and she seemed to be bleeding..."

Yao Niang never expected that Mrs. Zhu would faint from blood. No wonder she never used the knife herself when killing chickens and fish at home, but always had others do it.

Su Huiniang came to Zhu's side, put her hand in front of her nose and touched her chest before finally confirming that she was really not dead. She breathed a sigh of relief. Thinking of what her sister had just said, she suddenly felt angry. She picked up the tea on the table next to her and threw it on Zhu's face.

"Mrs. Zhu, you actually want to give Yaoyao as a concubine. I tell you, as long as I, Su Huiniang, are here, don't even think about it!"

Mrs. Zhu thought she was dead, but she never expected to come back to life again. At this moment, she also knew that she had suffered from dizziness, and she was extremely ashamed and angry. She was about to shout and say something, but suddenly she saw Yao Niang waving the scissors in her hand at her, and she immediately jumped out of the room in fright.

"Su Yaoniang, I'll ask your father and your eldest brother to take care of you. Just wait for me!"

After saying these harsh words, Zhu ran away.

Seeing that Zhu was fleeing, Li didn't dare to stay any longer, so she took advantage of the chaos and went back to the house. The two sisters tidied up the room, put Xiaobao to sleep, and then sat down to talk.

After listening to her sister's story, Su Huiniang said with some discomfort: "It's not too late for you to understand, how did my family treat me back then? If your brother-in-law and I hadn't fallen in love at first sight, you might not know what kind of life we ​​are living now. In the eyes of father and mother, only the eldest brother is the most important. Now that we have Zhu and Brother Dong, there is no place for us anyway, as long as we think about it. "

Brother Hong started crying in the main room. Su Huiniang left these words and hurried over, leaving Yao Niang sitting alone in the room, silently thinking about her thoughts.

Although he escaped Zhu's plot this time, the matter is not over yet. The Yao family won't be able to stay here for long, and the Su family may come to visit at any time. Could it be that she will have to work as an errand in Prince Jin's Mansion like she did in her previous life?

But whenever she thinks about her unexplained death in her previous life, Yao Niang's heart is filled with a sense of resistance.

She really didn't want to go to Prince Jin's Mansion anymore, but where should she go?

In a daze, I heard another quarrel between my sister and Mr. Li coming from outside.

My sister was not like this before. She was a very gentle and virtuous person, but now she has become like this. No matter how bad Ms. Li is, she is still her brother-in-law's biological mother. It is impossible for her brother-in-law to give up his own mother for the sake of his sister. But as long as she is still at home, it is impossible for her sister to have a peaceful life.

She couldn't selfishly only care about herself and mess up her sister's life.

As soon as Yao Cheng stepped into the house, he was faced with the quarrel between his wife and his mother, and his heart was full of exhaustion.

But thinking about what was on his mind, he patiently persuaded the two of them to leave, and then pulled Huiniang into the room.

"Hui Niang, do you still remember Danu Niu's Aunt Wang? She was the midwife who delivered your and Yao Niang's babies." Yao Cheng said suddenly.

Huiniang didn't know why he mentioned this and looked at him doubtfully.

"Aunt Wang's biological sister works as an errand in the palace. She came back a few days ago and said that the palace needs a nanny. Aunt Wang took it seriously and mentioned Yaoniang to her sister. The other party said that she had to meet her before she could decide. This issue."

Huiniang was listening quietly at first, but she exploded as she listened.

"Yao Cheng, do you want to drive my sister away?"

Yao Cheng smiled bitterly: "My aunt, how dare I have such thoughts. I just thought that Yao Niang didn't want to remarry, and she was dragging Xiao Bao with her. Our family could support them for a year or two, but we couldn't. For a lifetime. You know my mother is always looking for trouble, not to mention things like this. Yao Niang is not happy staying in the Yao family. It is better to change her environment and earn some money in the future. With a few years of money, I can buy a family property to raise Xiaobao and marry him a wife in the future.”

"Can……"

Yao Cheng spoke softly and analyzed the pros and cons in detail: "The palace is a very wealthy place. Being a servant there is dignified and the wages are high. Don't you know the situation of your natal family? Look at the commotion your sister-in-law has made today. Come out, your father and mother will probably come to your door in less than two days. When that day comes, our family has no right to stop her. Instead of doing this, it is better to go to the palace, which is also a way out. "

Huiniang didn't say anything, obviously she was a little moved.

At this time, the door in the inner room was suddenly pushed open, and Yao Niang came out. Her pretty face was full of determination, "Brother-in-law, I am willing to go." Apparently she had been listening inside for a long time.

Huiniang stood up and said anxiously: "Yao Yao!"

Yao Niang smiled and said, "Sister, Yao Yao is willing to go. My brother-in-law is right. Instead of being sent to be a concubine for landlord Na Hu, I would rather work as an errand in the palace."

"Can……"

"Yaoyao doesn't want to get married anymore. She just wants to raise Xiaobao and take care of him in the future. Now there is such a good opportunity to make money. I will be a wet nurse for a few years, earn some money, and then start a small business or something, so that I can raise Xiaobao without relying on others."

As she said, she looked at Yao Cheng lightly: "Brother-in-law, the salary in the palace should be quite high. If it is less, I won't go."

Yao Cheng hurriedly said: "Brother-in-law has asked Aunt Wang, the salary is very high, ten taels of silver a month, not counting the reward."

"That's really a lot, ten taels a month, one hundred and twenty taels a year. A wet nurse is not a job that can be done for a long time, but as long as I can do it for a year, the money I earn is enough for me to buy a small yard, and then do some small business to make a living."

Yao Niang murmured to herself, and she seemed to be more and more excited the more she thought about it. She excitedly stepped forward and took Hui Niang's hand, "Sister, you see, such a good thing, it's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."

Since it came to this, Hui Niang could only agree.

In fact, from the current situation, this is indeed the best choice. You don't have to look at people's faces in the Yao family, you don't have to worry about being sold to others as a concubine by your elder brother and sister-in-law, and you can earn a lot of money.

Except Xiaobao.

If Yao Niang goes to be a wet nurse, what will Xiaobao do?

Obviously, under the pressure of reality, some things have to be given up. Fortunately, Hui Niang and Yao Niang gave birth one after another. Hui Niang has enough milk. With her help to take care of Xiaobao, there is no need to worry about the child having no milk to drink.

Now that the matter has been decided, it is necessary to go to Aunt Wang's house for people to see. If people don't like it, it will be useless.

But Yao Niang knows that this trip will definitely succeed.

Because it was successful in the last life.

Chapter 5

Because there was something going on in the government office the next day, Yao Cheng took Yao Niang to Aunt Wang's house the next day.

Fearing that this matter would not succeed, and also wanting Aunt Wang to say something good, Yao Cheng specially prepared four kinds of fruits to take to Wang's house.

These four kinds of fruits are all fashionable goods from Taoyuanzhai, and the price is not cheap. Anyway, with the family conditions of the Yao family, they have never bought such expensive fruits for themselves. In order to find a good place for his sister-in-law, Yao Cheng has also spent a lot of effort.

Early in the morning, Yao Cheng drove the mule cart that he specially borrowed from someone and took Yao Niang to the Wang family.

The Wang family is in Liushu Hutong, which is a distance away from the Yao family. Yao Cheng knew that Yao Niang would not sleep much at night because she had to take care of Xiaobao, so he asked her to close her eyes for a while and call her when she arrived.

Yao Niang closed her eyes obediently, but at this moment, she couldn't sleep at all, and her mind was full of some things that happened in the Jinwang Mansion in her previous life.

The Wang family is also a family of officials for generations. Father Wang was injured when he was a constable in his early years, so when his son Daniu came of age, he gave up his position to his son. The Wang family has a son who is a constable, and Aunt Wang has a good skill in helping people deliver babies, so they live a very prosperous life.

The house is halfway through, with a large tiled house with blue bricks and black tiles. The front door is clean and tidy. You can tell at a glance that the hostess of this family is diligent.

As soon as I stepped into the gate of the Wang family, I saw a carriage parked in the yard.

Horse carriages are rare things for ordinary people. Even if ordinary people buy cars at home, they are donkey carts or mule carts. Horses are expensive. One horse costs dozens of taels and must be raised with good feed. Ordinary people can afford it or not.

Just looking at this carriage, you can know that Aunt Wang’s sister must be a decent woman in the palace.

But Yao Niang knew that Mama Liu was actually just an inconspicuous woman in the Jin Wang Mansion.

In her previous life, because she was immersed in self-pity, Yao Niang couldn’t remember how Mama Liu liked her when she came to the Wang family. This time, because of a different mentality, she was willing to observe the situation around her.

It was her brother-in-law Yao Cheng who entered the house first, while she stood in the yard waiting.

She had a feeling that someone was looking at her.

Mother Liu actually didn't take what her sister Aunt Wang said to heart.

In her opinion, what kind of outstanding talents could there be in this remote Linyun County. You know, the wet nurse she wanted to find was not an ordinary wet nurse. But it was not easy to say this in front of her sister, and seeing that her sister was so concerned about speaking for the other party, she wanted to just take a look and find an excuse to perfunctorily pass it over.

So when Yao Cheng came in and talked to Aunt Wang, she didn't even look at him.

Until she saw the girl standing in the yard——
