Quick Wear: The Bad Girl is Reborn and No Longer Confused
Chapter 396 The Maid Who Pushes Away 2
She thought of many strategies but none of them worked. After all, the man had a wife and held an official position, so it was not her turn to plot against him. After trying for a year, she had to give up.
By the time she wanted to settle for the fourth young master, it was too late because she had to accompany the young lady to her wedding. Thinking that the young lady's fiancé was not bad, she seduced him shortly after the young lady's wedding.
The other party is not a good person either. He came to her on his own without any seduction. He took her away and refused to admit it. After all, his wife's family is of higher status than his. It is a happy thing that the maid is willing to give it to him, but it would be a bit embarrassing for him to ask for it in private.
She was not the type to suffer any loss, or perhaps the lady's favor made her lose track of her own identity, and she even sought help from the lady in a disheveled state.
Wen Ruyi was heartbroken by Xu Tao. If she had just asked her openly if she wanted to be a concubine, would she have refused? She had been trying to find a suitable husband for Xu Tao, but she couldn't find anyone suitable.
She looked down on the servants and how could some officials marry a maid as their wife? She originally planned to find a suitable opportunity to let her out of the house in a few days and then beg her mother to adopt her as her adopted daughter. By then, she would be qualified to be the wife of some minor officials.
But it was all her own wishful thinking. The other person didn't want her. If she wanted to be his concubine, then she could be his concubine.
Xu Tao got the result she hoped for but was not happy. The man was lustful by nature and she was not a peerless beauty, so he would not come back after the novelty wore off.
But she refused to admit defeat and always wanted to stand out. However, she had no children, so it was difficult for her to win over those beautiful women, and she ended up in failure.
Xu Tao sighed deeply. What was wrong with her before? She had played a good hand of cards badly.
Lord Wen is the prefect, and her father is a marquis. She is just here to gild her reputation. If she is honest and dutiful, and has been saved by him, she will have no problem eating and drinking well with the rewards. Why does she have to be a concubine, and a concubine of her own husband? She must have been kicked in the brain by a donkey.
Wen Ruyi was really good to her. When she was in a coma, he was worried about others, so he specially transferred her good sister Chen Guihua to be with her. The two of them were from the same village and came to the mansion together, so naturally they had a good relationship.
Secondly, after he took her in as his maid, he didn't let her do any work. She just ate and drank every day, and she was given three or two taels of salary every month.
"Oh, I really don't understand."
After sighing, Xu Tao fell into a deep sleep. When she opened her eyes again, she saw a pair of round almond eyes, and she was startled.
"You're awake! I've found a doctor, and he's right outside. Hehua, go call Doctor Luo in."
"Yes, ma'am."
After a while, an old doctor with a long beard came in, took the patient's pulse for a while, and frowned slightly.
Wen Ruyi's heart tightened, and she quickly said, "Doctor Luo, is there something wrong? Tell me what you want to eat, and I'll get it for you."
"Fourth Miss, this girl is already weak, and after soaking in the lake for a while, I'm afraid it will affect her ability to have children in the future."
"What? That won't work. Doctor Luo, please think of a solution quickly."
Wen Ruyi was extremely anxious, but Xu Tao was very calm. In her previous life, this young lady felt very guilty towards her, so she often mentioned it in her ear and showed a regretful expression from time to time. If she were to say it now, it would be "AUP".
Lost in her own thoughts, Xu Tao didn't even know when the old doctor left. When she came back to her senses, she met a pair of apologetic eyes and smiled, "Fourth Miss, I'm fine."
"How can it be possible that there is no problem? Giving birth is such a big deal for a woman. I know you are trying to comfort me, but don't worry, I will definitely find a way to cure you."
"Fourth Miss, you are so kind."
"Why is it my fault? If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be standing here now."
Recalling the feeling of suffocation on the verge of death, Wen Ruyi shuddered, sat there for a while and then yawned. She was not fully recovered yet but wanted to come and see the person in person, so she came over.
Xu Tao hurriedly persuaded the other party to go back. It was a bit funny when others left. She didn't know how Mrs. Wen raised her child. She raised him to be innocent. This was not a good thing nowadays.
"Huh~ Taotao, the fourth young lady is finally gone. I didn't even dare to breathe just now."
"You're not good at climbing trees and catching birds. You've never been like this when you beat people up before."
"That's different, Taotao, how are you? Are you still feeling bad? You're so stupid. Your life is the most important thing. What if you sink into the lake? In the future, you..."
Xu Tao felt warm in her heart as she listened to the other person's chatter. Thinking about how the other person died for her in the previous life, she wanted to slap herself twice. She had to make do with blue porcelain when she didn't have the diamonds.
Chen Guihua felt uneasy when Taotao looked at her gently. Shouldn't she have interrupted her impatiently at this time? Why did she look at her as if she wanted to drown her?
"Tao...Taotao, are you out of your mind?"
As he said this, he knocked his head with his hands and shook it a few times. He felt relieved when he didn't hear the sound of water.
Xu Tao pushed the troublesome hand away and rolled her eyes in annoyance.
"Hey, that's right~"
Xu Tao was speechless. After a moment of silence, she said, "Guihua, do you want to leave the house?"
"I don't want to. Why would I leave the house? Will I be sold out by the Ding family again if I leave? They wouldn't dare to force their way in here. If I leave, they'll always find a way to make me surrender. I'm very glad to be sold to the Wen Mansion."
Chen Guihua's mother suffered heavy bleeding during childbirth. The Ding family didn't like girls, and they thought she was unlucky in marriage, so they wanted to drown her. However, she was saved by the lonely old widow, Grandma Chen.
The Ding family was also scoundrels. They told the other party that if they wanted to rescue the child, they could take him home and raise him, otherwise they should stay out of their business.
Grandma Chen took the baby back home. When they passed by an osmanthus tree, she named the baby Guihua.
Although Guihua didn't have enough food to eat when she lived with her grandmother, she was able to grow up at least. Later, as her grandmother grew older and lost her ability to move, little Guihua had to support the family by herself, and she could easily go to the river and climb trees.
But when she was twelve years old, Grandma Chen passed away. Before leaving, she hastily arranged a marriage for her. She didn't ask for any dowry, as long as she treated Guihua well. She did it in such a hurry because she was afraid that the Ding family would have ideas about her.
Unfortunately, she overestimated human nature. The Ding family had a betrothal gift of several taels of silver, so how could they be willing to give it up? She took a group of people to Guihua's fiancé's house to make a scene and demanded that they give the betrothal gift.
The family originally wanted to marry a daughter-in-law for free. Otherwise, why would they give up a good girl and marry a tomboy who was not loved by her father and mother? So they directly broke off the engagement.
Seeing this, the Ding family sold Guihua directly. No matter what the village chief said, it was useless, as it was only natural for people to sell their own children.
Guihua was too lazy to resist. Since her grandmother had passed away, she might as well consider it as repaying the Ding family for giving birth to her. She would have nothing to do with the Ding family from now on.
She also changed her surname, and from then on she was the dignified Chen Guihua.
