Dress up as a farmer's wife from the Wang family and fight for the best with space
Chapter 692 Sending Away the Wet Nurse
The village head's wife shook her head and said with a smile, "She did come back once, but my husband found her and immediately sent someone to tie her up and send her back to Liantang Village."
"Her father, Ren Gaoshan, felt ashamed, and within two days he secretly found a man for Ren and forced her to marry him."
"That man, eh, I heard he's an old widower whose wife died, but he has no children."
Gu Yunxi and He Feng were stunned and asked, "Is Ren willing too? She won't resist?"
The village head's wife shook her head: "Of course not, she made a big fuss! She said she would never marry that old widower, and if she had to marry, she would marry her brother Shuanzi."
"Oh, Brother Shuanzi is her adulterer, the one we caught before. But Shuanzi has a wife at home, and her family is a butcher. Shuanzi looks at his sturdy brothers-in-law, so how can he dare to say anything?"
Gu Yunxi felt relieved after hearing this. Ren had taken the wrong path from the beginning. Brother Yuancheng was so good to her. If she had been more content and taken Brother Yuancheng to see a doctor, perhaps Brother Yuancheng's illness could have been cured!
To put it bluntly, she just didn't love Brother Yuancheng. Seeing that Brother Yuancheng was not capable, she had an affair with her childhood sweetheart behind Brother Yuancheng's back.
This fickle woman with no moral bottom line deserved to end up like this. Gu Yunxi didn't feel sorry for her at all.
She smiled and said, "Aunt, this is retribution in this life. I raised a good man like my brother, but Ren Shi is not lucky enough to enjoy his kindness!"
The village head's wife was very pleased to hear this. She nodded and said, "That's right. I know that Ren's father married an old widower. I feel relieved."
What Ren had done before had brought shame to her son Yuancheng and had also brought shame to their family in the village. Now that Ren had married, she would never bother them again, and the village head's wife felt relieved.
The village chief's wife chatted with Gu Yunxi and others about family matters for a while before taking Zhongsheng home, saying that it was time to have lunch.
Gu Yunxi and his friends enthusiastically invited the village chief's wife to have dinner with them, but she refused and said she would come again next time.
Seeing this, Gu Yunxi had no choice but to give up. They had just returned and there were indeed many things to do at home.
For example, today we have to arrange for three wet nurses to go home.
After lunch, Gu Yunxi asked Xiao Cui to call out the three wet nurses, intending to settle the twelfth month's salary with them respectively, and also give them an extra sum of silver.
"You have indeed worked hard to take care of our children. Now that the young masters are over one year old and have not been weaned, they don't need so many people."
"The extra reward I promised you in the capital is all in here. You have been away from home for more than a year, and now it is the New Year. Go back and spend a happy New Year with your family."
After Gu Yunxi finished speaking, he asked Xiao Cui to give each of the three wet nurses a package, which contained their monthly salary for the twelfth month and an extra sum of silver.
Two of the three nurses showed joy and excitement on their faces, and immediately thanked Gu Yunxi: "Thank you, Madam. You are a good person. It is our blessing that you can come to the mansion to take care of the young master."
"Come on, let's pack up and go home. My kid must be missing me so much!"
"My daughter is the same. Oh, she was so young when I left home. I don't know if she will recognize me if I go back now..."
The two nurses chatted and could no longer contain their excitement to go home.
The remaining nurse didn't seem happy at all, but rather a little disappointed? Gu Yunxi saw this and asked, "Nanny Lin, are you dissatisfied with anything? You can tell me."
Nanny Lin bit her lip. She originally thought that the young master was already one year old, and the young mistress in the capital had not said anything about sending them home. She thought that she could stay in the Lu family and accompany the young master to grow up!
If I could stay here and accompany the young master as he grows up, I would be his wet nurse in the future. If I tell others about it, it would be extremely prestigious.
Otherwise, if she goes home and faces a lazy husband and a mean mother-in-law, her good days will be over.
Nanny Lin gritted her teeth and asked, "Young Madam, can I stay and continue to take care of the young master?"
Gu Yunxi had anticipated that she would say this the moment she fell silent, and immediately said with a cold face: "When you came to the mansion to be wet nurses, I told you very clearly, right? After the young master is one year old, you will go home."
She had thought about this before: what if those women with evil intentions became wet nurses? When the children grew up, what if the wet nurses used the kindness of feeding them to blackmail the children?
Therefore, Gu Yunxi was determined not to let the wet nurse stay.
Upon hearing this, Nanny Lin knelt down and cried, "Madam, I beg you, please let me stay. I really can't bear to leave the young master."
Xiao Cui, who was standing next to Gu Yunxi, saw this and her eyes widened. How could this nurse be like this? Isn't this moral kidnapping of the young lady?
She still said that she couldn't bear to part with the young master. The young master wasn't born by the wet nurse, she just fed him with milk, so why could she be reluctant to part with him? Besides, didn't the wet nurse have children at home? Didn't she miss her own children?
"Nanny Lin, you said you can't bear to part with our little master, so don't you miss your own children? If I remember correctly, you seemed to have said that your daughter is about the same age as our little master?" Xiao Cui asked mercilessly.
Nanny Lin's face froze, she looked a little flustered, and her tears fell even harder.
Nanny Lin cried, "Madam, my daughter is just a worthless life, how can she be compared with the young master? If you let me stay and take care of the young master, I will be happy even if I don't have to pay the monthly salary!"
Gu Yunxi's eyes turned a little colder. This Nanny Lin really dared to say that!
She ordered in a hoarse voice: "Really? That's not impossible, Xiao Cui, go call He Dachun over and ask him to write a contract of sale, saying that Nanny Lin wants to sell herself to our family."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Cui didn't ask any more questions and was about to walk out.
However, Nanny Lin, who was kneeling on the ground, was panicked. Did the young lady mean to ask her to sign a contract to sell herself?
Nanny Lin was startled, her face turned pale, and she shouted hurriedly, "No, Madam, I, I won't sell my body."
"Oh, if you don't want to sell yourself, then why do you stay in our family? Our family has no shortage of wet nurses now. If you want to stay and take care of the young master, won't you be a slave? To be a slave, you have to sell your body." Gu Yunxi said lightly.
Nanny Lin was so frightened that her lips were trembling: "No, I don't want to be a servant, I won't stay, Madam, I'll pack my things now."
The way she fled in panic made Gu Yunxi feel even more disgusted.
When she was in the capital, she knew that Nanny Lin was not a person who would settle down peacefully.
