I was a housekeeper in ancient times

The weather was hot and stuffy, which easily made one lose appetite. So Huang Niangzi cooked three kinds of wontons, mung bean and millet rice, stir-fried Chinese cabbage, fried eggs with wild vegetables, and a plate of spicy radish, and found a shady wooden shed to eat.

Mrs. Huang held Yanyan in her arms and also called Lin Weiqiao and Hong Luo.

Yanyan had been kept in the mansion for just a few days, and her little face had become a little rosier. Lin Weiqiao also found a few clothes that Fan Jie'er didn't wear and dressed her up nicely. She no longer looked like a child from a poor family.

During the few days they spent together, Huang Niangzi loved Yanyan so much that she would always give Yanyan first everything she needed to eat and drink.

As for Yanyan, she only sticks to Huang Niangzi and doesn't even want to get close to her biological brother Mugua. She would cry if Mugua hugged her.

Lin Weiqiao saw that Yanyan, such a young child, needed motherly love the most.

Yanyan has many children in her family and her biological mother is sick, so the love she can feel is very little. Now there is someone who treats her wholeheartedly. To Yanyan, that person is like her biological mother.

Moreover, it can be seen that Huang Niangzi and Yanyan really get along well.

Just after taking two bites, Chef Huang came with a few dishes. "I caught some fish and shrimp from the river this morning. The fish were not big, so I fried them. The shrimp tasted okay. There are so many of you, so it's just right. But river fish has many bones, so you can't feed them to the children. This steamed meat with egg is for the two children."

Chef Huang prepared the food enthusiastically, making the originally simple meal suddenly more rich.

Lin Weiqiao said: "I will hang out with you two from now on. I can't say anything else, but I guarantee that you won't go hungry." Seeing that there was so much food and they couldn't finish it, she asked Hong Luo to go get Xiaohan and the others.

Chef Huang smiled innocently as he watched Madam Huang holding Yanyan and feeding her. He felt a lot of emotion and his nose felt sour as he smiled.

Not to mention Mrs. Huang, even Chef Huang was looking forward to having a grandson so that they could enjoy family happiness.

He only has one daughter, Huang Niangzi. Huang Niangzi and her husband are unable to have children. He cannot complain or say anything, because he knows that Huang Niangzi is feeling more miserable than he is.

Now that Yanyan was here, he was envious. Such a young child, and close to his daughter, this was the best thing. But...

Lin Weiqiao knew the difficulties that the father and daughter faced, and she just didn’t believe how difficult Kang Ming could be to deal with. She was determined to be the Goddess of Fertility today!

After dinner, she went to Huang Niangzi's house with Huang Niangzi, Yanyan, and Papaya.

She has made up her mind that if the soft approach doesn't work, then she'll use the hard approach!

Kang Ming was sitting in the house drinking tea. When he saw a group of people coming, he was a little confused. "Mother Lin, you are visiting my humble home. Is there something important?"

She hugged Yanyan and explained her purpose. "What do you think? I know it's too much trouble for you, but I really can't let others go. You two are the ones I trust the most. Your home is close to the mansion, so I can take care of you."

Mugua also said sincerely: "My family is not in a good situation. Yanyan was bought by Mother Lin. Mother Lin lives in the mansion, so it is not easy to keep Yanyan by her side. If you have any difficulties, we will not force you."

Lin Weiqiao said: "Yes, raising a child is indeed a bit troublesome..."

Kang Ming looked at Huang Niangzi, who didn't want to show too much willingness, so she just said, "I'll listen to you."

Kang Ming was in a dilemma. It was rare for someone to ask him for help, and it was not a big favor. If he didn't help, he would seem petty. If he helped, this was a living child, and he always hated seeing children.

Lin Weiqiao saw that he was not very willing to do so, so she deliberately played the victim, “Alas, poor Yanyan, she can stay with us in the house during the day, but at night, she can only find a corner to sleep. It’s also my fault. I only knew how to save you from being a child bride, but I didn’t have the ability to settle you down. Madam Huang, Mr. Kang, we understand that you don’t want to help. Really, you don’t have to take it to heart, let alone feel guilty. She just doesn’t have this blessing…”

This made Kang Ming feel very uncomfortable. He looked at Huang Niangzi helplessly. Huang Niangzi said that he could make the decision. He hesitated again and again, and said helplessly: "Mother Lin, then you can stay at our house for the time being."

Lin Weiqiao immediately put on a smile. She was afraid that Kang Ming would treat Yanyan badly, so she gave Huang Niangzi some money in front of everyone and asked the couple to take good care of Yanyan.

Before leaving the Kang family, she was still worried that Kang Ming would vent his anger on Huang Niangzi because of Yanyan's matter, so she added: "I asked you to help take care of this child. If you and your wife have a conflict because of this matter, then it will be my fault and my sin. If you have any problems, just come to me. If it really doesn't work, I will take the child away and dare not disturb you two."

Kang Ming said with a smile: "Mom, what you said is too serious. Am I the kind of person who can't tolerate others? He is still a child, who would be hard on a child? Besides, I think this child is also well-behaved, so don't worry, Mom."

After leaving the Kang family, Mugua was still worried, "Everyone knows that Mr. Kang doesn't like children and often beats Mrs. Huang. What if he beats Yanyan?"

She said, "No, you see Kang Ming is always polite to everyone and is easy to talk to. Neighbors say he is a good person, except that he beats Huang Niangzi. I have already told him clearly that I bought Yanyan, so she is mine. He doesn't have the guts to do that, and he won't be so mean to a child, right?"

Having said that, she still couldn't help but murmur that leaving Yanyan in Kang's house seemed to have planted a hidden danger for Huang Niangzi. But Huang Niangzi loved children so much that she knew that there was no way to build something without breaking it. It was still unclear whether this would be a blessing or a curse.

Before returning to the Earl's house, I saw a young woman in the distance. She was dressed simply, carrying a bag, and asking someone about something.

Perhaps the woman had been walking for a long time and was too tired, so she stumbled as she walked and almost fell.

Papaya was quick and quickly held him up.

The woman thanked him repeatedly, "Thank you very much, little brother."

When Lin Weiqiao saw the woman for the first time, she felt that she looked familiar, as if she had seen her somewhere before. She saw that the woman looked pale and exhausted, and looked pitiful, so she asked, "Sister, are you looking for someone?"

The woman nodded, "Do you know where the Pingrong Marquis's mansion is?"

Lin Weiqiao and Mugua looked at each other, and Mugua asked, "Are you looking for someone in Bo's house?"

The woman was startled and stammered, "No, I'm just asking."

"The Bo Mansion is just ahead, just around the corner."

"Hey, good."

After thanking him, the woman continued to drag her heavy body forward.

When they returned to the mansion, they could still see the woman looking around across the Bo's house, as if she was looking for someone, but she didn't come to ask.

"Do you think that person looks a little familiar?" she asked Papaya.

"Yes, a little bit. I think I've seen it somewhere."
