Transmigrated into a female county magistrate during a famine, leading her country to prosperity

But before the marriage was finalized, the other party fell seriously ill and almost died, so she was said to be a "husband-killer".

God swears, the marriage hasn't been settled yet, and she hasn't married yet. Even if she wanted to bring bad luck, I'm afraid God wouldn't agree, right?

But the marriage fell through because her parents actually listened to the other party and thought she was unlucky and were afraid that she would bring bad luck to her younger brother.

After the two of them discussed it, they sent her to the election.

Fortunately, their ancestors had never committed any crime, and the Dai family was a respectable family in the local area, so she entered the primary election without knowing it.

That night, her parents allowed her to sit at the table and eat with her brother for the first time.

Her mother also put some meat in it for her.

My mother said that she was pretty and if she could be selected, she would be willing to climb up.

If she could become a formal palace maid, she would have it all her life. There were so many noble ladies in the palace, and any bit of what they showed through their fingers would be enough for her to enjoy for several years.

Her mother also said that if she did a good job in the palace, she might be released when she got old.

By then, you will have money and face, and what else do you want?

But her mother never seemed to have thought that she was just an elected girl and she would never be able to become an official palace maid no matter how hard she tried. Even if she was lucky enough to become an official palace maid, she might not live to see the day she left the palace.

Mother didn't say anything, and she didn't say anything either.

If she could really be selected, she only hoped that she could be given a good family by the palace. It didn't matter if she was beaten or scolded, as long as she could live to old age.

Later, she was really elected and the Dai family received a sum of money, but she seemed to be getting further and further away from the life she wanted.

At the beginning, she was considered outstanding among the elected women.

Because she was not afraid of strangers and was good at handling things, she had helped others get things done twice. Over time, she became famous among the elected women.

But she became more and more afraid.

She was afraid that she would be noticed by her superiors and become a formal palace maid, so she began to shrink into the crowd and no longer showed her hair.

Until that day, it was heard that the eunuch who served the emperor had arrived.

He was a figure from heaven, a powerful person who could take their lives with just one word.

Although she shrank back, the other party seemed to be well prepared.

——"Dai Liunu".

She was called by name.

There was no time to feel sad, the eunuch smiled and said, "Pack up and prepare to go to the Shen Mansion."

She was given an official position?!

She was extremely surprised and asked in her heart, which Shen Mansion is it?

The eunuch seemed to have heard her question, and said to the four lucky girls, "This is the residence of Lord Shen Zheng, the first female official of our Great Zhou. After you go there, you will no longer be elected women, and you will have to cut off your ties with your family. From now on, you will only be maids beside Lord Shen, and you can only be loyal to Lord Shen."

Lord Shen!

The lady-in-waiting, Mr. Shen!

Her face suddenly felt hot, and when she touched it with her hand, she found out she had been crying.

"You are useless." The eunuch scolded her, "But you don't want to? If you don't want to, there are other candidates on our list."

For a moment, the eyes of the other girls who were not selected lit up.

How could she let go!

"I want to! I want to!" She shouted in a hoarse voice, "I want to dream about it. Eunuch, please let me go to Lord Shen's house. From now on, my life belongs to Lord Shen."

"You don't need to give me your life." The eunuch said, "Just serve Master Shen well."

Just like that, they followed Grandma Gu to the Shen Mansion.

The mansion is very big, and when the master is not at home, Nanny Gu has been teaching them.

She was the master's personal maid, so she could enter the main courtyard. When she was free, she would sit at the gate of the main courtyard and look at the road leading to the main courtyard.

The flowers on the roadside are in full bloom, and they were picked by her.

She took good care of the flowers every day, hoping that her master would praise them when she returned.

When someone praises the flower, she thinks that he is praising her.

I waited and waited, I don’t know how long I waited.

The master is back.

Fortunately, the flowers have not yet withered.

"Do you have a name you like?" the master asked her.

"I don't have one." She lowered her head, "Please give me a name, sir."

The names given by scholars should be nice to the ears.

She was looking forward to her new name in her heart.

Her father was also a scholar, and he gave his younger brother a nice name that sounded like a scholar. But she and her five older sisters were called Dai Yi Er San Si Wu Liu Nu.

If you can't even bother to give them good names, how can you take good care of them?

Shen Zheng had just thought for a moment when the other three maids said in unison: "Please give me a name, sir."

Before, Shen Zheng always felt that a name was very important to a person. Perhaps it was the most earnest expectation of the family and parents for their children, so they respected it.

But she also understood that under the class system, slaves could hardly even protect their human rights, so how could they care about their names?

And not all parents love their children.

After asking them, Shen Zheng no longer hesitated.

"The name of a charming smile is called "燈" and the name of a jade pendant is called "Nuo". She said to Dai Liunu, "You have a nice voice, so let's call you "Peiyu".

Adults praised her for her beautiful voice...

In order not to be impolite, Pei Yu pursed her lips tightly.

Wear jade.

Wear jade.

Wearing jade...

She chewed over her new name several times in secret.

Before she had time to thank him, another sentence reached her ears: "Take my surname Shen, Shen Peiyu."

She looked up suddenly, her eyes full of surprise and disbelief.

The Lord not only gave her a name, but also gave her a surname?

Almost everyone knows that maids do not deserve to have surnames.

There are only three types of maids with names: one, the maid who serves the master in the same room; two, the maid who has made great contributions, such as saving the master's life; three, the house slave.

But she is neither.

And Nanny Gu, who was standing next to her, was surprised for a moment, then suppressed the admiration in her eyes.

These maids can indeed take the surname Shen, because they are maids bestowed by the emperor and represent the emperor's grace. They are not comparable to the ordinary purchased slave maids.

However, many officials would not give surnames to their slaves after receiving rewards.

Because if the slaves had the same surname as them, they would feel disgusted and would feel that it lowered their status.

And today, Lord Shen did this...

Grandma Gu lowered her eyes.

Whether it is to express gratitude to the emperor or really pity these maids who have no name or surname, it is always a good thing.

Then, Shen Zheng named the other three maids according to her ideas.

The maidservant on the left looked the most calm, with very majestic facial features; her name was Mu Qing.

The second maid on the left had a ruddy complexion and looked very healthy, so she was called Wodan.

The last maid, who looked more reserved and spoke in a low voice, was called Gan Tang.

"Shen Peiyu, Shen Muqing, Shen Wodan, Shen Gantang, all of them have my last name, Shen."

After thinking for a while, Shen Zheng rubbed his temples.

She was actually not good at naming, but she also knew that she should give them a name today, and it had to be a decent name, with a name and a surname.

How can a person live like a cat or a dog, with no name or surname?

She can’t control other people’s families for the time being, but she has the final say when it comes to her own family.
