Chapter 324: Find someone who loves her wholeheartedly
The couple sighed. How proud their daughter was before, how miserable she is now. She studied and studied until she became a nerd.
"Think about it carefully. If this marriage doesn't work out, no one will be there to help you with your future marriage."
After they finished talking, the two of them left the house without waiting for her to speak. If they stayed, they would still quarrel, so it would be better to let her calm down.
If the Marquis's wife hadn't thought her daughter was too much trouble, I'm afraid she wouldn't have intervened. This ungrateful fool is still not satisfied.
"Miss!"
After everyone left, the maid took out a wet towel and applied it to her face.
Xiao Yiran's eyes were red and swollen from crying. She was really sad. She didn't understand what she had done wrong. Was it wrong for her to not be as mercenary as them?
She didn't care about fine clothes and delicious food. She cared more about the harmony of souls than physical pleasure.
"Xiao Yu, how can I get rid of the shackles of home?" She was a little envious of the life of the poor outside. They were free, rising and setting at sunset, and their husbands and wives were harmonious and their children were filial.
The maid rolled her eyes in her heart. If you were born into an ordinary family, you would still be so tired. Don't you see how she lives and how you live?
"Miss, I think this marriage is very good. Why don't you consider it? You have seen the county magistrate's son. He is very handsome." The maid persuaded kindly.
"It's just a surface shell, what's the use of it?"
"You have a good family background. If you study hard, maybe you can become Mrs. Shangguan in the future." The maid tried to bribe her. She knew her master well, and she was a vain person at heart.
To put it bluntly, the reason for all this fuss is that they look down on the county magistrate's son and want to climb up the ladder.
"What happens after I become his wife? He is busy with mundane affairs, thinking about how to get promoted every day. I have wasted my whole life in the backyard, taking care of everything for him. Am I his nanny?"
Maid: ... "The husband is honored and the wife is noble, so you will be very proud when you go out."
"I just want to find a man who can recite poems and paint with me every day, who will be by my side and who only has me in his heart."
Xiao Yiran felt that men would become bad when they had power, and would definitely not be considerate to her after the novelty wore off. It would be better for her to find someone with a good family background, so that they could eat, drink and have fun together for the rest of their lives.
The maid died.
She was really convinced!
"Miss, what do you eat and drink? What will happen to your children in the future? What do you think? You have to serve your parents-in-law."
So please wake up and stop daydreaming!
"Then find a woman whose parents died young. Wouldn't the child still have the support of the Marquis' Mansion in the future? I've seen the dowry list. If you use it frugally, you can have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of your life. Besides, it's impossible for my future husband to be without any wealth."
So no matter who she marries or what their family background is, she will not be too short of money, what she lacks is a man who is devoted to her.
The maid's three views exploded. This kind of man is just the useless waste that the old marquis talked about every day! How can the young lady have a good future if she follows such a man?
Looking at her master who was immersed in her own thoughts, the maid lowered her eyes.
Such a master, no matter who she married, would have a hard time living a good life in the future. If the master was not good, she, as a servant, would be even more miserable.
Looking at her hands that were cracked by the cold in winter, she thought that when her master got married, she would have to live the same life as a dowry, and it might even be worse. Given her master's personality, she would definitely not have an easy life after getting married, and her second half of life would be ruined.
Xiaoyu couldn't help but shiver.
No, she doesn't want to follow such a crazy and selfish master!
"Go boil an egg and put it on my face."
Xiao Yiran looked at her still red and swollen face, frowned slightly, and said unhappily.
"Yes."
How can I get rid of the lady and avoid being arranged to have a dowry?
It’s not that she is unfaithful, but that her master is really out of touch with worldly affairs and doesn’t understand the hardships of his servants.
After serving her for so many years, she really had never received any monetary reward except for the share from the mansion.
She did receive a lot of verbal praise, and would occasionally be rewarded with food that she couldn't finish on weekdays, but other than that, there was nothing else.
Look at the servants in the prince's courtyard. They often receive rewards. It would be a lie to say that you are not envious.
"My Lord, when will my parents return to Beijing?"
"next month."
Lin Xiaomi nodded, the spring plowing was over and it was time to set off.
"What do you usually eat on your way to the capital?"
"Cakes and dry food. If there is an inn, you can eat something good and replenish supplies."
"Are there many inns along the way?"
"If you take the official road, you can actually stay in an inn every night. The main thing is the lunch. In order to hurry on the road, most of the food is dry food." Xiao Ran explained.
That’s quite a lot.
