Rebirth is not a dream.
Chapter 60 Holly
Su Yue has been taking care of the little guy Fubao wholeheartedly these days. However, despite her efforts and love, Fubao is still very afraid of others approaching him. Every time someone tries to get close to him, he shrinks back involuntarily, appearing particularly timid and cowardly.
Su Yue was filled with worry when she saw Fubao's reaction. She knew that it would take more time and patience for Fubao to regain his confidence and courage. It was indeed relatively easy to raise a child, but it was not so easy to raise him to be a healthy child physically and mentally.
Taozi watched Su Yue work so hard for Fubao, and she couldn't help but feel dissatisfied. When she made Su Yue's bed, she couldn't help but complain: "Miss, that Marquis's wife is really troublesome! That young master Fubao looks difficult to take care of. It's only natural to take good care of him. If you don't take good care of him, it's all your fault."
At this time, Su Yue was sitting in front of the dressing table, taking off the jewelry on her head, and responded: "So what? After all, Fu Bao is our third room's child. If he is not left with me, where else can he be sent? If he is sent to live in the manor with his mother, I am afraid he will not survive the end of this year."
When Taozi heard this, she said indignantly, "How can a biological mother abuse her own child like this? After all, this is her own flesh and blood that she carried for ten months."
Su Yue was full of doubts and puzzlement. She really couldn't understand why Aunt Cheng would treat such an innocent little life like this. Was it just because this child didn't let her fulfill her wish? Could it be that this child really wasn't Aunt Cheng's biological child? Su Yue couldn't help but sigh, how great it would be if there was DNA identification technology in modern society! In this way, blood relationship can be easily determined to avoid any doubts and disputes.
Thinking of this, Su Yue also understood why the ancients imposed so many restrictions and constraints on women. After all, in ancient times, the purity of bloodline and the continuation of the family were of vital importance, and any factors that might lead to impure bloodline must be strictly controlled. Perhaps it was for this reason that the ancients formulated a series of rules to regulate women's behavior to ensure that the family bloodline would not go wrong. After all, how could the ancestral family business be easily handed over to others!
Su Yue: "Take good care of it first, and think about the future later! After all, who can know for sure which will come first, tomorrow or an accident?" At this moment, Su Yue couldn't help but recall these words she often said to her customers when she was busy with business in the past. Now thinking about it, it seems quite appropriate to use it here!
After Taozi made the bed, she came over lightly and helped Su Yue to untie her long hair that was as beautiful as a waterfall. She gently combed each strand of hair and said worriedly: "Miss, no matter how much you care about the young master, you can't do everything yourself. It's too tiring! You still have to find him a few more maids."
Su Yue smiled slightly and responded gently: "It's okay, but we do need to find a few maids to help. However, it may be a bit troublesome to find new maids, after all, we are used to the current ones. By the way, who selected the two maids, Dongqing and Ginkgo?"
Taozi thought for a moment and replied, "This servant knows something. The holly was specially sent by the old lady, and the ginkgo seemed to be randomly assigned by the second lady."
Su Yue couldn't help but fall into deep thought, muttering to herself: "Didn't I intervene in this matter at the beginning?"
Taozi quickly explained, "When Aunt Cheng first came into the mansion, the young lady once asked the third young master about the aunt and the concubine. The third young master said at the time, 'You don't have to worry about these things,' so from then on, the young lady never asked about such matters again."
Su Yue was really speechless. She muttered to herself, "This little Su Yue has been able to live in such a large and complex mansion for three years. I guess the people in the mansion have no intention of doing anything to her. Otherwise, with her way of dealing with the world and attitude, I'm afraid she would have died without a burial place." Looking at that concubine Cheng, you can see at a glance that she is not a good person, but she is so laissez-faire. In this courtyard, the mistress is too innocent and the concubine is extremely stupid. Facing such a mistress, she was actually sent to the manor. Su Yue couldn't help but wonder, how did this concubine Cheng grow up in the Weiguo Marquis Mansion? Could it be that the palace fighting stories she had seen in the past were all fictional? The real house fighting is not so fierce and cruel? But the facts do not seem to be the case! After all, aren't classic works such as "Thirty-Six Stratagems" and "The Art of War" written by ancient people? Even until the 21st century, people still use the wisdom and strategies of the ancients. So, the house fighting in reality should not be so simple! “Thinking of this, Su Yue became more and more confused and puzzled.
Su Yue slowly walked to the bed, lay down gently, then turned to Taozi and said, "Let Madam Tao observe Dongqing. If she is still useful, bring her back. Fubao still relies on her a lot." Taozi nodded and said, "Okay, miss. But do you really not need me to keep watch?" Su Yue smiled slightly and said gently, "No, really. You should go to rest early too. You have to get up early tomorrow... uh, no, it should be said to go to work." Su Yue almost said go to work. She was still not used to this era.
Taozi hesitated for a moment, but seeing Su Yue's determined eyes, she no longer insisted. She said softly, "Well, Miss, you have a good rest. If you have anything, just call me." After that, she quietly left the room and closed the door.
Su Yue lay on the bed, her thoughts drifting away. She thought of Dong Qing, the maid who used to work in the mansion. Although she had some minor flaws, she was generally diligent and efficient. Especially for Fu Bao, she seemed to have special care and patience. Su Yue secretly thought that if Dong Qing could be used, returning to the mansion to work again might be a good choice.
As she thought about it, Su Yue's eyelids became heavier and heavier, and she fell asleep unconsciously. In her dream, she saw Fubao smiling happily, and Dongqing taking care of him carefully. This scene made Su Yue feel extremely relieved, and she knew that this was the future scene she expected.
Madam Hou was also talking about Dong Qing with her capable maid Lu Ying. Lu Ying was gently removing the delicate makeup from Madam Hou's face and asked carefully, "Madam, Dong Qing was sent by the old lady to Master Fu Bao, but now we have sent her to the laundry room. If the old lady comes back, will she blame you?"
A hint of surprise flashed across the eyes of the Marquis's wife, but she quickly regained her composure. She looked at herself in the mirror and said thoughtfully, "Oh? Why, did Dong Qing come to see you again?"
Lu Ying quickly replied, "Madam, it was not Dong Qing who looked for me, but Nanny Han from the old lady's courtyard who looked for me."
Madam Hou frowned slightly and asked, "What is the relationship between Dong Qing and Nanny Han?"
Lu Ying answered truthfully, "Madam, they are from the same hometown. When the old lady was looking for a new bride, it was Nanny Han who personally selected Dong Qing."
After hearing this, the Marquis's wife was silent for a moment, and thought to herself: "It seems that there may be some inside story... Well, in that case, let's do her a favor. It shouldn't be a difficult thing to do." After the Marquis's wife rested, Lu Ying quietly left the room and waited outside in case there was anything that needed her attention.
Su Yue woke up from her nap, and unexpectedly, Dong Qing was already waiting for her outside. Su Yue walked outside and asked Taozi, "What's the matter with Dong Qing?"
Taozi: "It was Meixiang who was with Madam Hou who sent the person here. She said that Madam Hou wanted Dongqing to serve the young master."
Su Yue sat on the small couch and said, "What Madam Hou meant, let her take care of the young master."
Taozi: "Miss, don't you want to warn Dongqing?"
Su Yue shook her head. "No need. Some things are not good to point out. Besides, after what happened before, she should understand the interests involved."
Dong Qing was filled with gratitude and knelt on the ground with a plop. "Thank you for your trust, Third Young Madam. I will do my best to take care of the young master in the future."
Su Yue helped Dong Qing up, "Well, get up and talk. As long as you take good care of Fu Bao, I won't treat you unfairly."
Taozi led Dongqing out of the room lightly, while Su Yue fell into deep thought. She didn't seem to care much about the opinions of other people in the mansion, but why was that? Was it because she had lived a transparent life? Perhaps not, but she had not yet truly integrated into the life here. She always felt that the people in the mansion were like ancient relics, suitable only for viewing from afar, but she never realized that this was the real life.
However, when Su Yue gently touched the teacup filled with hot water, she could also feel the stinging pain from the heat. At this moment, she suddenly realized that if someone stabbed her with a sharp blade, she would not be spared and would also face the threat of death. This is the reality of life, whether she is willing to admit it or not, she cannot stay out of it. Because she is already in this situation and cannot escape.
When Su Yue was lost in thought while holding the teacup, Qin Yi came in from outside. Seeing Su Yue leaning on the couch in thought, he called her softly, "Madam!" Su Yue did not respond, so Qin Yi called again, "Madam, what are you thinking about?"
Su Yue heard Qin Yi's voice at this moment, looked up at Qin Yi and said, "Why is the Third Young Master here? Don't we have to go to the academy today?"
Qin Yi: "I'll be there in a minute. What are you thinking about, madam? You didn't even hear me calling you?"
Su Yue: "I didn't think about anything, it's just that Fubao is a child..."
Qin Yi: "As long as you keep her, you will have maids and servants. You don't have to worry about that."
Su Yue: "What does the matter between adults have to do with the child? The child is innocent. He is so young now, how can you treat him like this? If you treat him well, he will definitely treat you well. If you treat him badly, he will definitely treat you badly. If you treat him coldly, he will definitely be a cold and heartless person. Since you raised him, you have a responsibility to him."
After hearing this, Qin Yi looked at Su Yue thoughtfully, sighed and said, "How could I not know these truths? It's just that sometimes when I see him, I will think of his biological mother..."
Su Yue held Qin Yi's hand and comforted him, "Let the past be the past. Fubao is innocent. We should give him a warm home."
Qin Yi nodded. "You're right. I was too stubborn. I will try to be nicer to him in the future."
Su Yue smiled and said, "That's right. Let's work together to make Fubao grow up healthy and happy."
The two smiled at each other, and the atmosphere became warm. Su Yue wondered if she was a little saintly, so she just let it go and see what happened. After having breakfast with Qin Yi, Su Yue sent Qin Yi out of the yard and took Taozi and Chenxiang to see Fubao. She was really a nanny now, taking care of the big ones and the small ones. But the days went by like fireworks.
