A lazy bum transmigrates and marries a eunuch – it's awesome!

No one can avoid going crazy at work, especially when your boss and their spouse are at odds and bring resentment to the office.

You'll soon find that your already less-than-pleasant workdays become even more unbearable.

Xiao Yuan's bad mood affected the entire Eastern Depot.

From the head of the gang to the gatekeepers, everyone was tense and looked miserable, and even the prisoners in the jail were living in dire straits.

Good moods may not be contagious, but resentment is definitely contagious.

Today, the Eastern Depot is almost like a mass grave. Anyone with spiritual power could feel the overwhelming resentment inside just by passing by the entrance.

Jiang Xinyu, who was slacking off at the Eunuch's mansion, was having more and more fun, teaching a few maids how to play mahjong with a newly made set of tiles.

Who can resist the allure of mahjong? After playing a few rounds, several maids got their hands on it and were immediately captivated by this novel game.

Especially the clever July, after becoming familiar with the rules, even knows how to feed cards to her wife. With this emotional intelligence, she would definitely be a candidate for a domineering CEO's special assistant in modern times.

The other head maid, Jiuyue, may not be as versatile as Qiyue, but she is a natural-born accountant, calculating numbers quickly and accurately like a human computer.

Jiang Xinyu gave it high praise, even thinking that if she could bring the two of them to the modern world, the three of them could start a company and make a fortune.

The group was having a great time when suddenly the steward came over to report that Madam Wang from the Qian family in Jiangnan was visiting and asked if she wanted to see her.

Normally, a merchant visiting the gatekeeper of the governor's mansion would not be given a prior notice, but this lady said that she was the maternal aunt of the governor's wife.

The gatekeeper dared not delay and reported to the steward, who quickly came in to inform him.

Upon hearing that her aunt had arrived, Jiang Xinyu quickly said, "Please come in quickly," feeling both happy and a little guilty.

She was confused; since she didn't have an aunt in modern times, she overlooked Madam Wang's matter.

She said that she felt like she had forgotten something these past two days, and it turned out that she had forgotten about her aunt who had come from afar.

People came all the way to see her off on her wedding day, but she ended up getting a different groom without even telling them.

This is a big deal!

Although Jiang Xinyu hadn't spent much time with Madam Wang, she sensed that the Qian family seemed to care a lot about this niece. They probably knew she had gone from being the wife of a prince to the wife of a eunuch's aunt, and they were probably quite anxious about it.

It's her fault, it's her fault. That pig-brain only thinks about food.

Jiang Xinyu's prediction was correct; Madam Wang cried bitterly after hearing that Jiang Xinyu had married an old eunuch.

I was anxious, angry, and heartbroken, yet helpless. I haven't been able to eat or sleep well these past few days, and I've become haggard.

Back when Jiang Xinyu's mother, Qian, was unmarried, she had a very good relationship with her sister-in-law. Wang was able to quickly integrate into the Qian family and take charge of the household affairs thanks to this younger sister-in-law who mediated between them and spoke well of her.

Madam Wang also adored her sister-in-law, Madam Qian. She extended her affection to her niece, even though the niece wasn't close to the family, and always kept her in mind.

This time, he traveled a long way to the capital to support her so that the child could get a bigger dowry and live a better life. Unexpectedly, fate played a trick on him, and he accidentally fell into a den of wolves.

A virtuous person deceives others with principles, while a hypocrite deceives others with reputation.

Someone like Chief Supervisor Xiao, who is ruthless and doesn't care about his reputation, is a tough nut to crack. Unless you have absolute power over him, there's nothing you can do about it.

But what power did the Qian family have? They couldn't even do anything to a fourth-rank official in Jianghuai, let alone the powerful head of the Eastern Depot.

What kind of life does her poor niece have? Even if she is beaten to death, they have nowhere to seek justice.

Lady Wang's maids and servants could only try their best to comfort their mistress, saying that everything is predestined and nothing is up to us.

The lady has already done enough for Miss Wang. The governor's mansion is not something they can touch. She wholeheartedly advises Wang to return to Jiangnan as soon as possible.

But Madam Wang couldn't bring herself to do it. She sent servants to inquire about the situation while waiting for things to calm down so she could find a way to meet her niece.

Everyone says eunuchs are greedy, so if she could, she would like to persuade her niece to take out her dowry and give it to Eunuch Xiao along with tens of thousands of taels of silver.

She only asked that Supervisor Xiao treat her Yu'er as a decoration and not beat, scold, or humiliate her.

However, as more and more information came out, Madam Wang realized that things weren't going too badly.

Especially yesterday when she returned to her parents' home, it was clear that Chief Supervisor Xiao was supporting his wife by slapping Liu. Many people said that Miss Jiang's complexion was rosy and she didn't look like she had been wronged.

On the contrary, the young lady from the Li family, who was originally supposed to marry Governor Xiao, looked haggard and seemed to be having a hard time.

Not only did she not have a smile when she entered, but Prince Zhao also didn't wait for her when she left. When he chased after her, he looked disheveled and seemed to have been crying.

To ensure the accuracy of the information, Madam Wang had her clever shop assistant buy a lot of peanuts and melon seeds and chat with all the gatekeepers on the street where the Jiang family lived for a long time.

The overall message is that the eldest daughter of the Jiang family seems to be doing quite well.

Madam Wang finally calmed down and her head wasn't hurting so much anymore, so she quickly had gifts prepared and rushed over the next day.

Women have a hard life; they have to follow their husbands wherever they go, even if it's just a chicken or a dog.

If the bride's family is powerful and influential, that's fine; otherwise, she'll just have to endure a lifetime of hardship.

Although the information gathered suggests that my niece doesn't seem to be suffering, we still need to wait and see what the truth is.

Lady Wang was relieved that Yu'er was able to enter the mansion quickly and smoothly, which meant that Supervisor Xiao had not restricted Yu'er from contacting the outside world.

Upon seeing Jiang Xinyu's rosy complexion and joyful expression, Madam Wang's eyes immediately welled up with tears.

That's good. It seems the rumors were true. Her Yu'er doesn't look like she's been wronged.

Jiang Xinyu warmly took Madam Wang's hand and kept apologizing, saying that she should have sent a letter to her aunt earlier, and that she had caused her aunt to worry about her.

Lady Wang had a thousand questions she wanted to ask, but seeing that there wasn't a single maidservant around her who looked even slightly familiar, she stopped herself from speaking.

After making some formalities, he tentatively asked, "Where is Chunxing by your side?"

These maids look unfamiliar. Did Liu replace them with your dowry maids?

"No, it's a long story."

After the maid brought the tea and snacks, Jiang Xinyu waved her hand and said, "You may leave now. I'll keep my aunt company for a while."

In July, they quickly bowed and left the house, standing guard at the courtyard gate. Madam Wang couldn't help but nod in approval.

This distance ensures that they can't hear the conversation inside the house, yet they can still come in immediately when their master calls. It seems these maids are very well trained.

only……

"These girls don't look like they could have been trained by Liu Shi. Could they be from the Governor's Mansion?"

Jiang Xinyu smiled reassuringly, "Auntie is truly insightful. The maids and servants around me were all Liu's spies, and most of them were sent to the estate by Xiao Yuan."

Chunhong and Chunxing are both injured and still in the manor; it's estimated they'll have to be sent away eventually.

The maids in the Eunuch's mansion are obedient, capable, and perceptive; I find them quite easy to use.

Madam Wang shook her head disapprovingly, "You child, how can you call Supervisor Xiao by his given name?"

Even in private, one should be careful; what if it slips out of your mouth?

Jiang Xinyu looked puzzled. "Our Great Jin has a law that forbids calling one's husband by his given name directly?"

Aunt, don't worry, Xiao Yuan doesn't care about these things.

Now Madam Wang was even more worried. "You are young and naive. This is not a matter of whether he cares or not."

You can't trust what men say. When they like you, they'll compromise on any principle, but once the passion fades, that's all a woman's original sin.

The rules that you young girls hate are not only constraints but also a form of protection.

A man's promises and affections are too fleeting to guarantee your lifelong peace.

But if you follow the rules meticulously and strictly, you'll still have a way out even if a man rejects you.
