After her fate was taken away, she was favored by her five brothers.

Wei sighed and said, "What can I do? It's all my fault that my stomach is not doing well."

"She was brought back by the master, and the master has already accepted her. How can I beat her to death?"

Mother Zhang continued, "Madam, it's good this way. As long as this little bastard is here, the master can come to our yard more often. Madam, you never know if she will get pregnant with a little master."

Wei also thought so. As long as she could get her pregnant, what would be the big deal in accepting this adopted daughter? She was just a girl.

After a few more days, Liu's body had almost recovered.

One day, she had just taken out the embroidery frame and wanted to do some more embroidery to sell, when she realized that the colored silk thread was gone.

She could only put away the embroidery frame for the time being. She also needed to go to town to buy some daily necessities and find a job.

"Qian'er, Fu'er, I'm going to town. Will you come with me?"

When Yun Fu heard this, her eyes suddenly lit up. She had been stuck at home for a few days and was looking for an opportunity to go to town to try her luck. Now here she was.

"Mom, I want to go."

Yun Zhiqian was worried about his mother's health: "I'll go too."

Just as the three were about to go out, there was a knock on the door.

"Is Sister Liu home?"

Judging from the voice, it’s Sichuan Hong.

Through the fence wall, you can see the carriage parked outside.

"Mom, it's the Xie family."

Liu frowned: "What are they doing here?"

Yun Fu: "He must be trying to persuade mother to go back to the Xie family to work."

Yun Zhiqian: "That's right, mother, don't pay attention to them, I'll go and chase them away right now."

Yun Zhiqian was about to open the door to kick the man out, but Liu stopped him.

"Qian'er, let's first listen to what other tricks they have."

Yun Zhiqian nodded and went to open the door.

At this time, three people walked in.

Chuan Hongyunfu knew the other two people. One was old, and Chuan Hong called her "Mom" all the time. She should be the housekeeper of Xie's house. The other one was dressed as a maid.

"Sister Liu, I came to see you. Are you feeling better?"

Before Liu could answer, Yun Zhiqian snorted coldly and said unhappily, "My mother has been tortured to death and you still have the nerve to come here."

A trace of embarrassment flashed across Chuanhong's face. It was indeed her fault for not doing things carefully enough. Mother Zhao had even scolded her for it.

Now he comes to me with such shamelessness.

Mother Zhao smiled and spoke softly, "I just found out about what happened before, and it was indeed Chuan Hong who did something dishonest.

I brought Chuanhong here just to vent Liu Meizi's anger. You can beat or scold Liu Meizi as you like today. If she dares to be unhappy, I will report to the old lady when I go back and drive her to the compound to do rough work."

Chuanhong's face changed again and again.

She knew that what Mother Zhao said was true.

Mother Zhao was the old lady's dowry. She remained unmarried all her life just to serve old Madam Xie. Now she is old and can no longer serve the old lady. All she can do is accompany her.

Everyone in the Xie family knows that Mother Zhao can represent the old lady, and her words are the old lady's words.

Even the master, mistress and several young masters and young ladies of the Xie family had to be courteous in front of Mama Zhao.

Liu also recognized the other maid among the three. She was the maid assigned by Old Madam Xie to Madam Zhao, and she was specifically there to serve Madam Zhao.

This shows how much importance Mrs. Xie holds Mother Zhao in her heart.

Mother Zhao glared at Chuanhong fiercely: "Why don't you apologize to Sister Liu?"

Chuan Hong's cheeks flushed, and she lowered her head and said, "It's all my fault for not being sensible. I beg Sister Liu to forgive me."

"louder."

"I'm sorry, Sister Liu. It's all my fault. Please forgive me, Sister Liu."

Chuanhong gritted her teeth and said it again in a louder voice.

Things had come to this point, so Liu no longer had any more thoughts and thought it was better to have less trouble.

"Well, it's over, there's no need to mention it anymore."

Mother Zhao: "Go get the supplements from the carriage and give Liu Meizi some good nourishment."

"Yes, Mom."

After receiving the instructions, the maid hurried back to the carriage to get it.

"Mother Zhao, since this sister Chuanhong has apologized and I have received my wages, I don't need the supplements anymore. I will have nothing to do with the Xie family in the future."

Knowing the purpose of their visit, Liu had no intention of letting them into the house for tea.

"Sister Liu, you see I have come all the way here, and I, an old woman, shamelessly ask you for a cup of tea."

Although Mother Zhao had a smile on her face, she had already cursed Liu eight hundred times in her heart. She knew the purpose of their visit, but still spoke like this. It was really ungrateful.

Liu said, "Mother Zhao, you are joking. You can see that our humble house has no place to entertain you, and we don't have money to buy tea."

"In that case, you have to make more money. Madam said that as long as you are willing to serve the old lady, you will be given a monthly salary of three or four yuan, and you don't have to sell your body.

Even though I have been working in the Xie Mansion for so many years, I only get three taels of silver per month, and this is already the highest salary in the Xie Mansion."

Mother Zhao observed Liu's expression.

She should be content.

Liu showed no emotion, but was already making plans in her mind.

If I had these three taels of silver, I could solve the child's tuition fees, and I could also buy some meat and vegetables for the child from time to time to supplement his nutrition.

And Qian'er can also return to the academy to continue his studies.

Liu quickly apologized with a smile, "Mother Zhao, please come in."

Seeing that there was hope of convincing Mrs. Liu, Mother Zhao smiled and nodded.

Alas, it’s their old lady’s fault. She’s so picky and difficult to serve now that she’s old.

She is too old to serve the old lady, but she wants to find a successor like her. However, she has not found one that satisfies the old lady over the years.

The old lady was quite satisfied with the fact that they finally met Liu. However, she did not expect that she was of good family background and came to Xie Mansion only to be a maid. She was not a servant of Xie Mansion who could be beaten, scolded or transferred at will.

I originally wanted to spend a lot of money to get Liu to sign the contract, but I didn't expect that Liu would disagree. Life has become like this already, I don't know why I should be so noble.

So, in the end, the Xie family gave in and agreed not to sign the contract as long as they could serve the old lady well.

Mother Zhao entered the house, and Chuanhong also showed an angry look behind her.

Why can she get three taels of silver per month, while I have been serving the old lady for two years and only get two taels of silver per month?

Yun Zhiqian's face was darker than the bottom of a pot. Could it be that his mother had forgotten that she was almost tortured to death by the Xie family a few days ago? Now she let them into the house.

But his mother had already told them to go into the house, so he had no choice but to follow her in to prevent her from being bullied.

"Mom, you also know what happened in the past few days."

Mother Zhao said, "I was ordered by the old lady to bring Chuanhong here to apologize to Liu Meizi. Madam has also fined her three months' salary. For the sake of the old lady, I hope Liu Meizi will give me a way out."
