The mistress of the Hou family worked herself to death, and she did not serve after her rebirth

Wen Rong suddenly felt a little depressed.

Fortunately, the sky is endless.

Gu Yuzhi appeared out of nowhere, and when she saw her, she rushed over, "Aunt, are you okay? I heard that the Marquis saved you, but it was rumored that you two were hugging each other, Aunt? If you don't marry the Marquis, will you be drowned in spit?"

Gu Yuzhi said this while winking gently at Wen Rong.

Wen Rong nodded quickly, "No, I can't. How can I do that when the Marquis only has the Madam in his heart? But if I don't repay the favor of saving my life, I will feel guilty..."

As if he had heard it clearly and made up his mind, Wen Song knelt down in front of Liu with a plop.

"Aunt, my life was saved by the Marquis. My aunt taught me since I was a child that I should repay a drop of kindness with a spring of water. I must repay it, but I know that my status is humble. I don't ask for anything else, I just want to stay by the Marquis' side, even if I can be an ordinary maid, so that I can have the opportunity to serve my aunt at any time..."

As she spoke, she kowtowed to Liu several times.

This series of actions completely confused Liu and everyone around her.

Finally, it was the nanny beside Liu who spoke up to persuade her. "If you have anything to say, stand up first."

Liu nodded, "Get up first and tell me in detail what you just said."

Mrs. Liu had so many things to take care of recently that she was a little overwhelmed.

Finally, Wen Rong explained the whole story hesitantly, and Liu finally understood.

But she always felt that something seemed wrong.

But before she could react, the people around her advised, "Old Madam, you don't want to take care of these account books anymore. In fact, it would be a good thing if Miss Wen Rong could come to the mansion."

Liu nodded slightly.

Then he asked someone to invite Pei Jiuniang

Pei Jiuniang had just picked up Gu Yu from work when she heard the news that Liu had invited her.

Ever since Gu Lanzhi's request for the position was unsuccessful, Liu has become much more obedient.

She knew without asking that Liu had been busy managing the household recently.

Without her dowry, the family would have to save a lot of money.

Liu was used to living a luxurious life.

She heard that Liu was still living her previous extravagant life, but the income from the mansion could not support it at all, so Liu cut the monthly wages of the servants in the mansion by half, which caused complaints from the people in the mansion.

But this has nothing to do with her, as she has always been responsible for the people in her yard.

Recently, people in the mansion have been particularly respectful to her when they see her.

She was very puzzled. When she was the housekeeper, she gave them money to supplement their monthly wages, but they pretended to obey her but actually disobeyed her. Now that she no longer cared about it, they became respectful to her instead.

What is this called?

However, she still found time to visit Liu.

I didn’t expect Wen Rong to be there too.

"You came at the right time. The news has spread everywhere. Why are you still pretending that nothing happened? It's not Rong'er's fault that something like this happened. Now, if you don't marry her, how can she live? I think you did it on purpose, Pei Jiuniang, tell me the truth today. Do you allow Rong'er to enter the mansion?"

Before Pei Jiuniang could stand still, Liu started talking rapidly.

This made Pei Jiuniang confused.

She waited until Liu finished her endless chatter before she couldn't help asking, "Can you explain it more clearly? Why can't she survive? Is she suffering from a terminal illness?"

Pei Jiuniang glanced at Wen Rong, who looked haggard but seemed to be stronger. She couldn't tell that she had a terminal illness. Besides, if she had a terminal illness, why would she look for her? She was not a doctor.

"You? You're still pretending not to know..."

Liu scolded.

"I really don't know. I'm either at home or at the Imperial College every day. I don't have so much free time. If you..."

Hearing this, Liu was also a little confused.

In fact, she hadn't heard about it either, but Wen Rong said that it was widely spread outside, so she shouldn't have heard about it?!

Thinking of this, she glanced at Wen Rong.

Wen Rong was also a little annoyed. She gave the silver to the storytellers and beggars, and then hid for a few days. Could it be that?

Thinking of a certain possibility, Wen Rong felt a little embarrassed and annoyed.

But it was obvious that the arrow was on the string, so she had no choice but to continue.

He had no choice but to kneel down and hesitantly said what he wanted to say. After he finished speaking, he waited quietly for Pei Jiuniang's reaction.

Pei Jiuniang couldn't help but sneer in her heart.

Wen Rong's words were widely spread, but she didn't hear them at all.

Not only her, it seemed that no one else had heard of it.

So, what's all the buzz?

That’s obviously what Wen Rong thought.

She felt that Wen Rong was eager for the news to spread.

Thinking of this, there is nothing left to understand.

Isn't it just thinking that I agree to let her enter the mansion?

Compared to her previous life, Wen Rong seems to be a lot worse.

No.

In fact, Wen Rong has not changed.

But without her help in managing her career and taking care of her children, her life seemed to be no longer comfortable.

Right now, becoming a concubine in the mansion is her only chance.

Wen Rong, oh Wen Rong, in your previous life, you were the one who looked down upon being a concubine the most. Even in the end, you entered the Marquis's Mansion as a second wife and the child's aunt.

In this life, you finally lost your patience.

Pei Jiuniang didn't say anything, and Wen Rong's heart began to tighten.

"Madam, please don't think too much. It's just that in the eyes of outsiders, I am already... I only ask you to give me a name to the outside world. Internally, I am willing to be your slave and serve you..."

"Is this true?"

Before Wen Rong could finish her words, Pei Jiuniang interrupted her.

Wen Rong was stunned. Looking at Pei Jiuniang's serious expression, she nodded hesitantly.

"In that case, I will make the decision and agree to sell you as a slave. According to the price, a slave of your appearance would cost about 80 taels. I will give you 100 taels. From now on, you will belong to the Marquis' Mansion, whether you live or die, you are mine..."

Wen Rong was stunned when she heard this. She suddenly widened her eyes and couldn't believe that Pei Jiuniang had let her...

How is this possible? !

Liu was also confused. Although Wen Rong said that she could be a slave, it did not mean that she really wanted to be a slave.

"you?!"

"I was just joking. Wen Rong is your niece after all. How dare I humiliate her like this? But you have to know that if you enter the mansion as a concubine, you will be a slave in the mansion. From now on, you will no longer be a cousin, nor the aunt of the two children, but a servant in the mansion."

After hearing this, Wen Rong was stunned.

She only knew that a concubine was also the Marquis's woman, his bedmate, and half the master of the mansion, but she forgot that a concubine's status was not much higher than that of a servant.
