I was a housekeeper in ancient times

Yu Muliu had lived in the Bo's house for less than three days when Old Madam Yu came over with people, and Meng Xia came with them.

When Yu Muliu heard that Old Madam Yu was coming to the Bo Mansion, he sneaked out immediately and hid in the Qi family.

This made Old Madam Yu so angry that she scolded Yu Muyan, "It's all your fault. You've spoiled Sister Liu like a nobody. You knew I was coming but you still hid? Is that right?"

Yu Muyan just listened to Old Madam Yu scolding, but she didn't care. She just said that Yu Muliu was able to keep her company and talk to her to relieve her boredom in the Bo's Mansion.

"Isn't your elder sister still in the Earl's house? Are you talking to her?"

"My elder sister doesn't like to talk to me."

Yu Muyan said truthfully that since Yu Mubao lived in the Bo's house, the two sisters did not often visit each other, so naturally they could not see each other. Yu Mubao did not come to see her, and sent someone to ask her for whatever he needed, so she was happy to have some peace and quiet.

Old Mrs. Yu didn't like to hear this. She thought that she must be the one who disliked Yu Mubao, and started to blame her again.

Seeing this, Meng Xia left Shuangxiyuan under the pretext of visiting Yu Mubao.

When they arrived at the room where Yu Mubao was, they saw Yu Mubao half-lying lazily, with various fruits and snacks on the table beside him. The clothes he was wearing were brand new and gorgeous, and they could be seen at a glance that they were newly made. On his hair bun he wore a pearl and jade snail hairpin and a silver hairpin with rich cloud pattern, and on his ears were white jade and kingfisher earrings.

I have never seen Yu Mubao wear these jewelries before. I guess she got them after she moved into the Bo's Mansion.

Meng Xia was jealous, she knew what Yu Mubao was like, she relied on her mother's family for everything, and was not even as good as herself. But after this trip to the Bo's Mansion, she was living a life of superiority.

"Hey, Cousin Xia, you're here, come and sit down." Yu Mubao was worried that no one would talk to her. Everything was good in this mansion, except that no one would chat with her. She couldn't chat with Yu Muyan, and she looked down on those maids and women, so she stayed in her room all day, eating and drinking to kill time.

Seeing Meng Xia coming, she quickly stood up and asked Aunt Cai to make tea. "If there are any delicious snacks in the kitchen, just bring them up to entertain the guests."

Compared with her own sisters, she interacts more with this cousin and has a closer relationship with her.

Meng Xia sat beside her and said with a smile: "You are living a really comfortable life."

She said, "What's the big deal? Sister Yan can enjoy it, but I can't? What's the point?"

"Yes, you have a sister who is a countess, and a lady of honor, so you have no worries about wealth and status. Alas, you are nothing like me."

"That's not right, cousin Xia. We are all family, why are you talking so distant? Your elder sister is raised in luxury in the mansion. Compared to her, I am not as good as your elder sister. A while ago, sister Yan called the outside shops to the mansion and asked your elder sister and the other two to choose the jewelry and materials. As for me, I can only wait for their leftovers."

Mentioning Wan Jie'er, Meng Xia's smile froze, "Ah, no wonder Wan Jie'er doesn't get close to me, look at your second sister, she's so good at winning people's hearts."

In Meng Xia's plan, she did everything she could to adopt her younger sister to Yu Muyan, simply because she was attracted by the splendor and wealth of the Bo's Mansion. She was not close to Yu Muyan and they seldom interacted with each other. Yu Muyan was also aloof and could not get close to her.

She couldn't flatter Yu Muyan, so she thought of using Wan Jie'er to get close to the Bo's Mansion. But she didn't expect that Wan Jie'er got close to the Bo's Mansion, but she didn't get any benefits.

In the first few years after her elder sister was adopted by the Bo family, she went to the Bo family every now and then under the pretext of visiting her elder sister, which made the Bo family unhappy. Yu Muyan even privately asked her to come less often, saying that it was for the good of her elder sister.

At that time, she saw that Wan Jie'er was not favored in the Bo's Mansion, and Lu Yuxuan didn't like Wan Jie'er very much either, so she had to endure it and wait until Wan Jie'er had established herself before coming back.

However, who could have expected that when Wan Jieer really became a proper daughter of the eldest wife in the Bo's mansion, she would not acknowledge her as her biological mother. In the end, she not only failed to gain wealth and status, but also lost her own daughter. Who could be more miserable than her?

While eating snacks, the two chatted.

Yu Mubao said, "Hey, don't look at me here, eating and drinking well, but I am still under someone's roof, I have to bow my head and look at other people's expressions. My life is not that glamorous."

Meng Xia sneered in her heart, "No matter how bad it is, it's better than me, right? You don't know how to appreciate the blessing you have."

Knowing that Wan Jie'er had received a lot of jewelry, Meng Xia no longer had the mood to chat. Yu Mubao saw that she wanted to see Wan Jie'er, so he went with her.

Wan Jie'er and Yu Muliu went out to Qi's house, so Fan Jie'er was in Wan Jie'er's yard.

"Hey, where is Sister Wan?" Yu Mubao asked Sister Huan who was serving beside him.

"The third lady and the fourth lady Liu have gone out." Huan Jie'er replied, and when she saw these two people coming, she was full of contempt.

Meng Xia seldom came to Wan Jie'er's yard, and since Wan Jie'er was not at home, she just treated it as her own yard. When she entered, she first looked around and saw that everything was exquisite, and it was many times better than her own home.

Logically, Meng Xia should be happy for Wan Jie'er, but she just couldn't be happy no matter what. Wan Jie'er was able to live such a good life because of her planning, but Wan Jie'er still didn't recognize her as her biological mother, which was ridiculous to think about.

Seeing several pieces of jewelry on the dressing table, she picked them up and looked at them, wanting to take them for herself. In her opinion, it was only natural for her to take things from Wan Jie'er.

This scene happened to be seen by Fan Jieer who walked in. Fan Jieer was young but smart. She often heard the maids and women around her talking about Meng Xia and had a bad impression of her. Seeing Meng Xia actually taking Wan Jieer's jewelry, she childishly said, "You are not allowed to take my sister's things."

The sudden sound startled Meng Xia and Yu Mubao. Yu Mubao said to Huan Jie'er impatiently, "Take Jie'er away quickly!"

Huan Jie pursed her lips helplessly, thinking that this was in Fan Jie'er's own home, did Yu Mubao really treat her as the master?

Sister Fan said, "I won't leave. I'll wait for my sister to come back. You can't touch my sister's things."

Yu Mubao said unhappily: “Your Aunt Meng is your sister’s biological mother, don’t you even let her touch you?”

Fan Jieer went straight forward, snatched the jewelry from Meng Xia's hand, put it back into the jewelry box, and locked it. She said angrily: "No! My sister doesn't like others touching her things. Also, get out, this is my sister's yard, we don't welcome you."

Meng Xia was dumbfounded. Did Sister Fan think she was a thief?

Yu Mubao asked Huan Jie'er to take Fan Jie'er away quickly, but Huan Jie'er pretended not to hear. She was Fan Jie'er's maid, not a maid of the Yu family, so why should she listen?

Yu Mubao and Meng Xia were humiliated by a little kid like Fan Jie'er.

Yu Mubao was very angry and immediately took on the attitude of an elder to teach Fan Jie'er a lesson.

Fan Jie'er was also spoiled by her family. She didn't like Yu Mubao in the first place. When she heard her scolding her, she retorted, "My aunt lives in my house every day. What qualifications do you have to scold me?"
