Noble Lady

Chapter 11 You are the next one

The lady's partiality and favoritism in the past six months made her forget that she had always been an unpopular "money-loser" in the He family.

When someone treated her well and pulled her out of the mud pit, she became proud and not only did she not thank the benefactor who pulled her out of the mud pit, but she also turned against him.

The only person who treats her well will pounce on her and bite her, so she will suffer in the future!

Thinking of this, Xiaocao couldn't help but sigh. The lady was really miserable. She had done so much for this family, but she didn't expect that they were such a terrible bunch.

……

Xue Chenyu didn't know that someone was speaking up for her, but she had heard about He Ruyi's experiences.

When the people who knew He Ruyi went to the kitchen to ask for some delicious dishes to be prepared, they were told that there were no ingredients and could not make them. They were asked to figure it out themselves and were then kicked out, which made He Ruyi very angry.

But she had expected this kind of thing.

The He family is known as a family of integrity. The old lady gave all the good things to He Min alone, but was extremely harsh to her daughters.

There are four girls in the He family, and three of them are from the eldest wife.

The eldest daughter He Chengxin is He Minzhi's eldest sister. Since she got married, she has almost never returned to her parents' home. In her previous life, she had been married to the He family for many years, but she had only seen her a few times.

There is no need to say much about the second girl, He Ruyi. She is impulsive, irritable and brainless.

The third girl, He Shuang, is from the second wife's house. Although they don't have much contact, her temperament, character and appearance are like the old lady from the second wife's house, and she has a petty and opportunistic air.

The fourth daughter, He Jixiang, was born to the concubine of the late Master He, and is also He Minzhi's half-sister. It is said that she went to the nunnery to pray for her father and her aunt since she was a child. She did not come back at her wedding with He Minzhi, and has not been seen since then.

"The He family is such a mess, it's probably not that easy to get a divorce."

The candlelight was dim, and Xue Chenyu tapped lightly with her fingers on the carved round Huanghuali wood table, humming thoughtfully.

The girls of the He family might be her breakthrough.

Xue Chenyu didn't sleep well because she had too many worries on her mind.

The next day she got up early, washed her face and found that she looked not good, so she asked Qiuhua Dongyue to put on makeup for her.

In the diamond-shaped mirror, the girl in her twenties has sparkling eyes, is as pretty as a peach or plum, and is breathtakingly beautiful.

Speaking of which, He Ruyi learned to rename Chunhua and Qiuyue after hearing her maids were called Qiuhua and Dongyue. At first, she named them Dayu and Xiaoyu.

"Girl, the boy has arrived."

Yuzhu reminded softly from outside the curtain.

Xue Chenyu nodded and asked her to call Su Zhi over.

Ever since Suzhi came to the He family, she has been used to being lazy and gluttonous. She will not get up until the sun is shining. Now that she was called up by Yuzhu, she looked dissatisfied.

Yuzhu sneered, "Miss, you are kind and always treat us kindly, but that doesn't mean you can do whatever you want."

A servant should behave like a servant. What kind of person is Su Zhi if she behaves like her master every day?

"You are loyal and devoted to the master, but you are addicted to being a servant, right? You deserve to be a servant all your life." Su Zhi also couldn't stand her loyalty to Xue Chenyu and retorted.

"you!"

"What do you mean? Aristocratic families have always had the practice of promoting maids who came with the dowry to concubines. You are so loyal, why didn't the lady tell you that she would promote you to a concubine?"

How shameless! How could she, an unmarried young woman, have the nerve to say such things?

Yuzhu was so angry that her face turned red.

Besides, who would want to be a concubine to a heartless bastard like He?

"The girl said she would find me a good family and let me be the first wife!"

Once a concubine, always a concubine. I can't hold my head up high, and my children won't be able to hold their heads up high in the future. I won't be so useless as to want to be a concubine."

Now Suzhi's face turned red and then green, and then green and then red.

"You, what do you know? If I find you a peasant, you'll have to dig for food in the fields for the rest of your life."

Yuzhu was speechless. They all grew up in the backyard of the marquis's mansion, and their mothers served the lady. She didn't know what she had been through to be so short-sighted.

Which girl from a good family would be eager to become a concubine?

But she was too lazy to argue with Suzhi. Everyone had to pay the price for their actions.

Those who followed the girl out of the Marquis' Mansion were no exception.

Because Su Zhi was dawdling, when they arrived, Xue Chenyu had already finished her breakfast and was holding a cup of tea and slowly skimming off the tea foam.

There was also a woman in her forties standing next to him, serving him with a smile on her face.

She was wearing a gray-brown dress, her hair was tied up in a simple bun, with only a silver hairpin as decoration, and her makeup was also very simple.

They don’t look like people from the Marquis’ Mansion or the He family, they look very unfamiliar.

"Miss, here comes Suzhi." Yuzhu bowed politely.

Xue Chenyu nodded, and the woman next to her immediately brightened up her eyes.

"Girl, is that her?"

"It's her." It was Yuzhu who answered, "Please, Madam Qian, take a look."

The girl called Madam Qian nodded repeatedly, looking Su Zhi up and down. She became more and more satisfied, and her mouth was grinning from ear to ear.

This waist, this chest, this butt, you can tell at first glance that she is good at giving birth.

This is top quality stuff, you'll definitely make a lot of money from it.

She looked at it as if she were looking at a commodity.

Suzhi finally realized the seriousness of the matter, her face changed drastically and she turned around and wanted to leave.

But he was stopped by Qiuhua Dongyue.

"The girl didn't let you go. Where do you want to go?"

Su Zhi shouted at the top of her voice, "I am the son of the Marquis's family. Madam, you cannot sell me out."

"Oh?"

It was the first time that Xue Chenyu heard that a master could not sell out his servants.

Su Zhi was afraid of the absence and continued, "My mother was the Marquis' wife's dowry, and I was also the dowry that the Marquis personally selected for you. If you sell me out for no reason, I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to explain it to the Marquis' Mansion!"

Xue Chenyu: People will laugh when they are speechless.

Their mother had always been kind to the servants in the mansion. Influenced by their mother, they and their siblings had never been harsh on the servants and had even treated them very well.

But their kindness could become a tool for others to exploit? Dream on.

And you're using her mother to pressure her? Even if they're family, there's still a difference between close and distant relatives, not to mention that Suzhi's mother is just her mother's maid.

Doesn’t Suzhi understand such a simple truth?

"Even if your mother had all the power in the world, she couldn't reach me. Besides, I'm her own daughter, and she wouldn't allow any servant to get ahead of me."

Xue Chenyu put down the teacup again, the sarcasm on her lips was self-evident.

Yuzhu was also furious and said, "Why do you think that the young lady and the lady would become enemies over a maid like you? Don't forget, your mother is just one of the lady's maids."

Su Zhi glared at Yu Zhu, "What are you so proud of? Wasn't your mother also a maidservant during the dowry, and aren't you also a maidservant during the dowry? Do you think you are superior to me? If you are proud now, you will be the next one!"
