Grandma Shen is worthy of being the grandma who once managed the family. Once she decided to give up Wang Ma and her daughter and keep a low profile in the Shen family, she acted very quickly.

After Shen Wenjiao strolled around and attended classes with Mo Ge'er and the others for two or three days, she returned to her own courtyard and no longer saw Wang Ma and her daughter. Instead, an old woman with a weathered face and very dark and rough skin came into the courtyard.

At the same time, the kitchen in the courtyard was officially completed. From now on, Shen Wenjiao could live with Grandma Shen and be self-sufficient in the Shen family!

"Mom, who is she?" Shen Wenjiao looked at the old woman curiously. My goodness, she must be at least 50 or 60 years old based on her appearance! Her hair was a little gray. How could her mother, who was so smart, choose such a person?

Grandma Shen sighed. She didn't expect that she would meet someone familiar when she went to buy someone this time. Life is so unpredictable!

"Come here, Qingye, come here. Jiaojie, this was your mother's maid before she got married. She met the wrong man afterwards. Oh, forget it. There's nothing to talk about with a four-year-old child like you. Just call her Aunt Feng from now on~"

Qingye was sold to the Feng family as a maid when she was young, and then she ended up with the unmarried Shen grandmother by mistake. The master and the servant still had a deep bond, so before she got married, Shen grandmother released her indenture contract and even found a matchmaker to introduce her to a good family.

Qingye had been a maid since she was young, so she had no family and no bound feet. She was not outstanding in appearance, but fortunately she was practical and hardworking. With the help of a matchmaker, she found a farmer with a fairly good family background, which meant they did not care whether a woman had bound feet or not.

Foot binding was very popular in Datong, and girls would bind their feet if their families had the means. Before marriage, it was better to look at the feet than the face and character. As a girl without bound feet, Qingye's marriage was obviously very good.

Qingye still had the money she had saved as a maid, so as long as the couple managed their lives well, they wouldn't have a hard time. How could it end up like this? You know, she got married at about the same time as Grandma Shen, which means she was a few years older than Grandma Shen. Now she looks like she is a generation older.

"Hello, Auntie Feng~" Regardless of the idea of ​​respecting the elderly and loving the young, or out of consideration for Grandma Shen's own mother, Shen Wenjiao was quite respectful to Auntie Feng, and called her crisply and sweetly.

Feng Ma, also known as Qingye, looked at the little girl born by the young lady. She was a little at a loss for a moment, rubbed her hands, and smiled hard, saying, "Okay, okay, young lady, school is over now! Do you want to eat anything? I, your servant, will make it for you."

Grandma Shen looked at Qingye, who was no longer as lively as before, and sighed deeply in her heart. The luck of the master and servant was really amazing. They both married into enviable families at the beginning, but in the end, neither of them had a good ending.

"Qingye, don't call yourself a slave anymore. You are employed by me. Save money and you will be able to support yourself in the future. Okay, go make me some yellow cake first. You have made the best cake in all these years."

"Okay, okay, grandma, just wait. I'll make it now. Everything is ready and it will be done in a short while!" Aunt Feng went to the kitchen quickly with red eyes. With grandma's words, she would not have to worry anymore.

As soon as Feng Ma left, under Shen Wenjiao's understanding gaze, Grandma Shen really told Qingye all of Feng Ma's experiences, cursing at her.

Qingye's life was relatively easy at first. Although she married a farmer, his family had a lot of land and was quite wealthy. Although the couple was not in love, they respected each other and Qingye soon became pregnant and gave birth to a child.

Unfortunately, Qingye's luck was obviously not good. She did not have a child to gain a firm foothold in her husband's family. She gave birth to a girl as her first child. Originally, this was not a big deal. After all, no wife could guarantee that she would only give birth to a boy! This was her first child, so it was normal for the flower to bloom before the fruit.

But in the next ten years, fate obviously did not favor Qingye. She gave birth to six girls in a row, not a single boy. The continuous births and the hardship of life easily destroyed the spirit of this ordinary woman. Especially after the last child was born, Qingye, who had not gotten pregnant again for three years, was obviously abandoned by her in-laws.

Soon, Qingye, a woman who had no support from her natal family and had not given birth to a boy, was kicked out of her husband's family.

"It was just a coincidence this time. If I hadn't happened to meet her, Qingye wouldn't know what to do! The Li family is just a small farming family. They really gave them face. A husband and wife are bound by a hundred days of grace. Qingye has worked hard for their family over the years, even if she has no merits! As soon as they saw that she couldn't have children, they turned hostile and even wanted to sell her off. I don't believe that there will be a girl from a good family willing to marry me in the future..."

Grandma Shen cursed fiercely, but she knew in her heart that she was not right. Qingye had been married to the Li family for more than ten years and had not given birth to a boy. No matter what the Li family did, it would not make outsiders feel excessive.

Shen Wenjiao listened to Grandma Shen's chatter with lifeless eyes. At this time, she clearly understood the huge gap between Grandma Shen and her thinking.

Although Grandma Shen complained about the Li family's lack of humanity, she also lamented that Qingye was unlucky and couldn't give birth to a boy. In her mind, giving birth to a boy was the duty of women after marriage, and if they couldn't give birth, it was their own fault.

Grandma Shen herself did not really value her own existence, nor did she value the value of women. This idea was the saddest part for Shen Wenjiao. No wonder it was said that it was women themselves who valued men the most and ignored and despised women the most.

"Qingye will have the same surname as me, Feng, from now on. Jiaojie, just remember to call her Aunt Feng." Grandma Shen muttered a few words indignantly. She let the matter go. It was their bad luck that both the master and the servant didn't give birth to a boy!

"Mom, what about Aunt Feng's six daughters?" The mother, the Li family, wanted to sell them without hesitation to get the money to marry new wives, so one can imagine the fate of the six neglected girls.

"Sold~ I don't even know where Qingye was sold~" Grandma Shen also sighed. The Li family men were really too cruel. Could it be that the girl was not of the Li family's bloodline? It was too easy for them to sell the child! Alas~ I don't know how much water the matchmaker had mixed in when introducing her.

The word "sold" made Shen Wenjiao shudder for no reason. She was a little scared. What should she do if she fell into such a situation? She looked at her short stature and had no fighting power at all. If she met a human trafficker, she would be like a meat bun hitting a dog and there would be no return.

I had originally wanted to sneak out for a walk but I gave up completely. There is no such thing as 110 to call the police in this era!
