The news that Shen Wan had selected two roommates for Xiao Yulang soon reached Tang Duanshu's ears.

It was Xing'er, the little girl she served in front of her, who came back and told her.

Living in the Xiao family for the past two years, her mother and she also gained some money by currying favor with the Tang family.Her mother Wu bought a ten-year-old girl for five taels of silver to be her maid.Thinking that all the young ladies of the Xiao family have servants in front of them, Tang Duanshu would look too shabby if she didn't even have one.

Although Xing'er served Tang Duanshu, she still ate in the dining hall of Xiao's maidservants. This was also a kindness Tang gave to Wu's mother and daughter.

Today Jinglan and Cuizhu changed into the water-red bijia and dresses worn by the second-class maids and went to the dining hall to eat. Xing'er was among the more than 100 maids who looked at them and regarded their gossip as if they were serving meals.

Xing'er also heard the discussions of the maids around her, saying that the two new maids were strangers, and they became second-class maids in an instant, and that these two were brought back by the young mistress Shen Wan from the other courtyard of the Shen family. .

Isn't there a special reason for Shen Wan to praise them so much?

Everyone discussed it and came to the conclusion that the most likely special reason was that the young mistress wanted to take a concubine for Young Master Sun.

Since the young mistress married Young Master Sun for three years, the young mistress did not allow Young Master Sun to have a roommate.Before Young Master Sun got married to Young Mistress, he had several maids in the house, but after getting married, Young Mistress also dismissed them.Neither Young Master Sun nor the Xiao family objected to this.

So all the maidservants of the Xiao family understood that it was impossible for them to have the opportunity to climb into the bed with Young Master Sun, and even if they did, they would be sent out, and no one would speak for them at all.

From then on, Xiao Yulang was clean in front of him, and he only had Shen Wan as his official wife.

However, as Xiao Yulang and Shen Wan got married longer and longer, and Shen Wan had no heirs, some of the maidservants in the Xiao family were eager to move, wanting to climb Xiao Yulang's bed.

In addition, in the past half a year or so, there have been rumors circulating in the Xiao family mansion that the elders of the Xiao family wanted to take concubines for Xiao Yulang. Be Xiao Yulang's roommate, even Ming Lu's concubine.

But after guessing and guessing, they never guessed that Shen Wan went to her natal family to pick someone to be Xiao Yulang's concubine.

In fact, this kind of practice can be regarded as the common practice of the main wives of those big families.

But it was surprising that this kind of practice fell on Shen Wan who had been married to Xiao Yulang for three years.

The maids discussed again, thinking that this must be the rumor that Xiao Yulang's elders decided to take concubines and have children for Xiao Yulang. The young mistress, who is the official wife of Young Master Sun, felt the pressure.Rather than letting Xiao's family and seniors take concubines for Xiao Yulang, she might as well choose her own confidants to be Xiao Yulang's roommates.In this way, even if her confidant later gave birth to a child and became a concubine, the new concubine would treat Shen Wan respectfully and would not fight with her regular wife.

Then, the two new girls who have become second-class maids in an instant must be the people in Young Master Sun's room.

After everyone affirmed this idea, the crowd was excited for a while, cursing the newcomers Jing Lan and Cui Zhu for being a vixen at first glance, especially the beautiful Jing Lan who is even more of a show hoof.

They didn't dare to scold Shen Wan, they could only scold Jing Lan and Cui Zhu for venting their anger.

Not for anything else, just thinking that Jinglan and Cuizhu blocked their way and cut off their desire to transform from slaves to masters.Moreover, they also felt that they had been in the Xiao family for so many years, why did they let the two maids from the Shen family take the lead?They are so unconvinced!

Although Xing'er who served in front of Tang Duanshu was young and ordinary-looking, she was also jealous, jealous of the luck of the two new maids, who were about to jump into the dragon gate and become masters.

After returning from eating in the dining hall, she talked about it to Tang Duanshu who had just finished eating with Mrs. Wu, her tone was of course dissatisfied and angry.

Tang Duanshu was startled when she heard this, and hurriedly asked Xinger if this was true?

Xing'er said: "This servant saw it with my own eyes, how could it be fake?"

"..." Tang Duanshu panicked, she gathered herself together, left Xing'er and went to her mother's room next door.

Wu has the habit of taking a lunch break after lunch every day. After lunch, she drank a cup of tea and was about to take off her shoes and go to bed. Seeing her daughter hurriedly pushed the door and entered, she turned around and locked the door.

"Duanshu, what are you..." Seeing her daughter bolting the door in a panic, Wu felt that something had happened, and it was something bad, so her voice was a little dry when she asked.

"Mother, it's not good." Sure enough, Tang Duanshu turned around and said something that made her heart sink before she came to her.

When Tang Duanshu came to her, Wu grabbed her daughter's hand, pulled her to sit beside him, and anxiously asked her what happened.

Tang Duanshu told her mother what Xing'er had just said to herself when she came back from the dining hall.

After hearing this, Mrs. Wu didn't want to believe it at first, and felt that Shen Wan's behavior of being the roommate of Xiao Yulang's maid was too different from usual.

So she asked her daughter again and again: "Is what you told Wei Niang true?"

Tang Duanshu: "It's absolutely true."

Biting her lip, she said that if Shen Wan really brought back two servant girls from the Shen family to be Xiao Yulang's concubines, then what would she do?

Do I still have to wait behind the two maids arranged by Shen Wan?

In case the two maids became pregnant and gave birth to a son and a half, Xiao Yulang might not want her.

Speaking of this, she couldn't help crying.

Mrs. Wu immediately comforted her daughter: "Your cousin Yulang won't deny it. Even if the surname Shen gave your cousin two of her confidant maids to be housemates, your cousin will still love you the most."

Tang Duanshu said: "But my cousin didn't promise me the day before yesterday. He only said that he wouldn't treat me badly. It means that he won't treat me badly. He won't treat me badly if I give gold, silver and property, but what I want is him. that person."

"You and your cousin Yulang have speculated since you were young. Didn't you say that he said that you were the one he wanted to marry before the surname Shen came in?"

"He said it, but he said it as a joke at that time. How could he know that he was not joking."

Mrs. Wu understands what her daughter means. Most of the sons of these wealthy families are people who don't agree with each other. In order to coax the girl to get started, they will say all kinds of sweet words.As long as the girl gets started, she will put you aside.Although his daughter was Tang's niece, Xiao Yulang's cousin, he didn't dare to take advantage of his daughter and throw her away, but he could snub her if he got a new love.

Now, didn't Shen Wan want to give Xiao Yulang's two confidantes little maids as Xiao Yulang's roommates, wouldn't they become Xiao Yulang's new love?

All men are greedy for the new and dislike the old, and Xiao Yulang is no exception. In this way, those two little maids will become her daughter's opponents, preventing her from achieving the goal she has been planning for many years.

So this is really a problem, Shen Wan posed a difficult problem for their mother and daughter.

Wu murmured: "Could it be that the surname Shen noticed something, and she made this move?"

Tang Duanshu said it was impossible, because she and Xiao Yulang had achieved good things on the second day when Shen Wan went to Qixia Temple.

"Mother, don't talk about what's there and what's not, quickly help me figure out a way, I can't just wait for Shen Wan to give those two maids to Cousin Yulang."

"You let Wei Niang think about it."

Wu frowned and thought about it for a long time, but she couldn't come up with a perfect plan. Finally, she said: "Why don't we go to Tanjue Temple tomorrow to meet your cousin Qingyuan, he is very resourceful and will definitely come up with a good plan for you , let your wishes come true."

Wu Qingyuan, Tang Duanshu's cousin, was a monk in Tanjue Temple, and his Dharma name was Huizhen.

This Wu Qingyuan is only 25 or [-] years old, and has been a monk for more than ten years. He is the third son of Wu's eldest brother. Because of his poor family, he became a monk with his fellow villagers.First, I stayed in a small temple in my hometown for two or three years, and then went to Tanjue Temple in Jinling to work as a monk doing odd jobs.Because of his wit and ability to speak, he gradually stood out, and finally became the Zhiguo monk of Tanjue Temple, responsible for receiving the donors who came to Tanjue Temple to offer incense.

Since Wu's mother and daughter came to Xiao's house in Jinling, when they encountered some problems that their IQ could not solve, they loved to go to Tanjue Temple to offer incense and ask Huizhen for advice.As for Huizhen, she can read and write, and she has some experience as a monk and monk these years, so she can really give them some ideas to solve their problems.

Therefore, when Mrs. Wu mentioned this, Tang Duanshu nodded, "Alright, then let's go to Tanjue Temple tomorrow."

……

Jing Lan didn't go to watch Shen Wan's night watch for two days, and she and Cui Zhu were arranged to learn some etiquette and how to comb and wear their hair.

She and Cuizhu took each other as experimental subjects, taking turns combing each other's hair, inserting hairpins and combs, etc.

Jing Lan actually wanted to see Shen Wan very much, and asked her when there was no one in front of her, was she the one who arranged for An Chun to change herself and Cui Zhu into second-class maid clothes?

Since the change of the water-red bijia and dresses worn by the second-class maids, as Cui Zhu said, indeed those maids who are lower than them have more respect for them, and no one dares to refuse to ask anything. answer them.But when she turned her back, she could feel their cold gazes, like arrows piercing through the body, shooting towards her and Cui Zhu's backs.

Jing Lan didn't like being so conspicuous, and was secretly hated by others.

From the south tower, Xiao Ruyu's delicate laughter would float down from time to time, and this kind of laughter lasted for two days.

It was not until the third day that her mother Tang came to the South Tower and took her away.

As soon as she left, let alone the South Building, the entire Mandarin Duck Building became quiet again.

After being pestered by her sister-in-law for two days, she was finally pulled away by her mother-in-law, which made Shen Wan heave a sigh of relief.The reason why she didn't let Jing Lan come to her for night watch these two days was because her sister-in-law wanted to eat and live with her, and it was difficult for her to ask Jing Lan to come up to serve her.

With Xiao Ruyu at the side, she couldn't say anything more intimate to Jing Lan.

However, although she didn't ask Jing Lan to come to her, she still ordered An Dong and An Chun to teach Jing Lan and Cui Zhu something, so that the two little girls would have something to do and not feel bored.

An Chun and An Dong will also report to her how Jing Lan and Cui Zhu have learned.

As soon as Xiao Ruyu left, Shen Wan immediately asked someone to send Jing Lan to meet her.

The two hadn't seen each other for two days, and when they saw each other, they were both a little excited.

Jing Lan saluted Shen Wan, before the salute was completed, Shen Wan had already told her to get up and talk.

When she straightened up, Shen Wan beckoned her over with a nod.

Jing Lan was about to say that she should rub Shen Wan's shoulders, but Shen Wan seemed to know what she was going to say a long time ago, and said: "You can talk to me in the afternoon, and you will bathe me at night. You are on duty at night, you have to make up what you owe me for these two days."

Then she asked Jing Lan to move a drum stool to sit beside her, and pointed to the tea and snacks on the table, letting Jing Lan eat whatever she wanted.

Of course Jing Lan likes the job of eating and chatting with her, especially when facing such a super-looking beauty in front of her.

After happily following Shen Wan's request and moving a drum stool to sit beside her, Shen Wan asked Jing Lan how her two days were going.

Jing Lan told the truth about how she lived, and of course she also mentioned that An Chun sent two water-red dresses worn by second-class maids. She tentatively asked Shen Wan: "Girl, do you really feel that?" Is it appropriate for Cuizhu and me to wear the dress that only second-class maids can wear? Is this really what you mean?"
