Chapter 300 Gongsun Yun is Contradictory
Xu Yue vacated a room for her cousin Gongsun Yun to stay temporarily, and went to work with her brother, naturally thinking that Gongsun Yuner, who was a little older than herself, and her 15-year-old maid could take care of herself.

The house is not big, but it is enough for two masters and servants to live in Gongsun Yun.

Gongsun Yun knew that she was here for refuge, so she didn't ask for anything, even though she used to live alone in a courtyard in Gongsun Wubao.

Most of the maids and servants in this era do not have their own separate rooms, and the better ones will make a floor next to the master's bed.

The one who almost slept directly in the corridor outside the master's room, which was okay in summer, but in winter, the cold wind was bleak, it was really hard.

And the big maid brought by Gongsun Yun usually sleeps with the master, really serving her closely!
This kind of treatment is top-notch among servants.

So Xu Yue only prepared one room, and the master and servant could also live there.

But it must be inconvenient. The eldest maid found that the Xu family had no servants. On the first morning when she and the young lady moved to the Xu family, she couldn't find anyone to fetch water for her.

The well in Xu's courtyard was dug deep, and the rocker pulley was used to fetch water. The maid didn't know what this device was for, so she just lowered the wooden bucket with a rope to fetch water, so naturally she couldn't get it up for a long time.

Of course, changing a familiar hand is definitely not the result, but this big maid is not strong enough, and she doesn't have to do such rough work at Gongsun's house on weekdays, and she burst into tears when she was fetching water from the well of Xu's house.

The big maid felt very wronged, but she still had to carry half a bucket of water to boil water for the master to wash.

Then, she never found anyone to ask where the kitchen was.

Gongsun Yun got up early, and seeing that the maid had not brought in the water, she got out of bed to look outside, only to find that her maid was looking around in the courtyard like a headless fly.

"What's wrong?" Gongsun Yun asked suspiciously.

The maidservant didn't expect that she would alarm the master, she quickly shook her head and said it's all right.

But Gongsun Yun still saw something wrong from her red eyes, went up to touch the water in the bucket, and asked in surprise, "Why is it still cold? Didn't you get hot water?"

The big servant girl finally couldn't help complaining softly with red eyes: "Miss, in such a big yard, the servant girl can't find a servant. The servant girl has just arrived, but I haven't found where the fire room is yet. I asked the lady to wait in the house. I feel wronged." .”

Hearing this, Gongsun Yun slapped her head and said angrily, "I forgot to tell you that my cousin's family has no servants."

"Ah?" The eldest maid looked at her young lady in disbelief, the Xu family is so grand, and there are no servants to serve it?
Seeing the aggrieved look of her servant girl, Gongsun Yun caught a glimpse of the wet well in the courtyard, and already guessed in her heart what happened just now.

"You've never tapped well water, have you?" Gongsun Yun asked softly.

Her voice was always gentle and gentle, if she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, the maid would not have believed that her master would have divorced her.

The eldest maid nodded honestly, and seeing the young lady's calm face, she felt embarrassed and wronged.

Gongsun Yun thought about the living habits of her cousin's family, and liked to do her own things, and didn't like others to intervene, so there should be water boiling equipment in this yard.

Thinking of this, Gongsun Yun searched for it in the courtyard. The small courtyard is not big, only three rooms, and the left and right sides are locked, like a warehouse.

The middle room was where she lived. Gongsun Yun went back to the room to search for a while, and saw a knee-high pottery stove behind the door.

And beside the stove, there is a bag of charcoal packed in sackcloth and chopped short firewood.

The flint and steel is on the clay stove.

Gongsun Yun was overjoyed, and hurriedly called the big maid to come over to make a fire and boil water.

The master and servant were in a hurry, and finally got out the hot water for washing their faces.

But, where should I eat this breakfast?

Fortunately, the Xu family didn't forget about them. Just as the master and servant had finished washing, a short-haired man named Ah Er came in and asked them to eat.

In the old house of Gongsun's family, no male servant had ever entered the lady's boudoir, and Ah Er's sudden appearance shocked the maid greatly.

Gongsun Yun was fine, she knew the Xu family's living habits were different, and she had been to school before, so she didn't care that much.

But the maid who accompanied her was so panicked that she complained to the Xu family. Although she could not say that the master's relatives were not relatives, she felt that she had a natural moral advantage in the matter of male and female defense.

"How can there be adult males coming and going in and out of Miss's boudoir at will." On the way to dinner, the eldest maid couldn't help complaining beside Gongsun Yun that Xu's way of treating guests was wrong.

Gongsun Yun shook her head, "It's okay, Xujiazhuang is like this, there is no such terrible defense of men and women here."

horrible?
The big maid nodded, it was really scary!
But the terrible thing is not the great defense of men and women, but that Xujiazhuang does not follow the etiquette!

Gongsun Yun turned her head and glanced at the maidservant, seeing her unacceptable expression, she suddenly regretted bringing her here.

If she had known that this personal servant girl was so rigid, she should have come by herself without bringing anyone along.

But Gongsun Yun also knew that it wasn't the maidservant's fault, but the fault of this era.

In this era, women are turned into monsters who can only follow the rules!And women don't know it, and they are proud of it, so they can get some rights, and continue to use this theory to reprimand women who don't obey the rules.

It seems that only when there is "one world under heaven", women like them who take advantage of this to occupy a certain right will feel satisfied.

Thinking of this, Gongsun Yun was a little depressed, and her expression was not very good-looking.

In the past, she never thought of transforming the people around her, because the books that Cousin Yue'er gave her said that anyone who wants to change or overthrow must first have a strong capital.

Otherwise, the ending must be tragic.

In the backyard managed by Grandma Yan, she obviously couldn't gain any power yet.

Whether it is the mother-in-law sent by Grandma Yan, or the obedient and docile elder sister, they all get much more capital than her.

The only person she can win over is her brother.

But now that she has grown up, she can't stay with her brother all the time. They have divided the yard, one is on the east side and the other is on the west side. It is getting more and more difficult to meet each other.

In the past two years when she didn't go to ethnology, Gongsun Yun often doubted whether she was Gongsun Yun or the second lady of the second wife of Gongsun's direct line.

While she was eating and using what she had at home, she still wanted to fight for some things she wanted for herself, such as continuing to go to school, not getting married so early, learning how to be a housekeeper and how to control people.

Gongsun Yun is very contradictory. She doesn't know whether she should be herself, or should be a filial second wife of the Gongsun family, lest Grandma Yan always say that she is ungrateful, selfish, disobedient, ignorant, and does not know how to contribute to the family.
