Zhutian: Since I was a child, I have been happy to be a father

Chapter 924 The Sheng Family Arrives
"My Lord? Isn't that the Earl?"

Before Zheng Yuanyuan traveled through time, she was a student who was about to take the college entrance examination and had a tight schedule. But during the Spring Festival, she had some time and happened to watch a few episodes of the hit drama "Do You Know?"

I was also quite impressed by the characters of Mrs. Liang and Liang Han.

She even knew that the drama had an original novel, but she had never read it carefully and only heard about it from her classmates.

So, she suddenly realized.

'The Great Zhou Dynasty and the capital city, not the Song Dynasty and Bianjing. Is this world based on the original novel? And I accidentally traveled to this world and became Zheng Yuan, and was bought home by Liang Han, a playboy, and changed my name to Yuanyuan because of my round face? This is too bizarre! '

Zheng Yuanyuan had a resentful look on her face. Although she had some interest in costume romance dramas, she really didn't want to travel through time, at least not to come here to receive training in a brothel. After two years and six months of training, when she reached the age of 15, she would have to get married and be combed by any rich man.

She would rather die.

Maybe after I die, I can go back and take the college entrance examination.

She has excellent grades and is also a little beauty. She comes from a wealthy family. Only a fool would be willing to travel through time!

However, she is not willing to commit suicide now because she is very curious about this novel world, especially the heroine Sheng Minglan.

She also learned that Sheng Minglan was also a time-traveling girl in the original novel, and she lived a good life in the end. She became a lady of honor and her husband was also honest.

Although the material conditions may not be as convenient as those of modern people, such as air conditioning and flush toilets, other enjoyments are even better.

Can ordinary families today have maids to order around at will? It is even difficult to find a confinement nanny that suits one's heart.

But the problem was that her status was that of a musician-turned-slave of extremely low status, far inferior to Sheng Minglan, the concubine's daughter of an official family.

Sheng Minglan didn't need to be a maid, but could be the mistress of the house who dominated the maids. But she was a maid, and her ceiling was not high. Even if she became a concubine, her treatment was much worse. For example, her monthly salary was only one-tenth of that of the main wife, and she could forget about the dividends.

As for being a famous prostitute? The ultimate goal is to marry into a wealthy family and become a concubine.

'In the novel, Liang Han also married Minglan's sister Molan. After I become his maid, I may have a chance to meet Minglan in the future. Can I ask this senior to help me? Well, forget it. I can't be exposed in a hurry! Sheng Minglan, the time traveler, may not be good to me. If things go wrong, she may even plot to silence me! '

Zheng Yuanyuan is not a boxer. On the contrary, because of her good conditions, she is often slandered by some jealous female classmates. For example, she looks pure but is actually sultry, and she is like Jinlian who can only be with a man, and she has all kinds of hookups.

What a pity!

The dark circles under her eyes are caused by studying till the early hours of the morning, not by any random shit!

Just when she was thinking wildly in her heart, Mrs. Liang finally stopped worrying about her affairs, but still did not let go of her precious son. She touched Brother Tao's half-cut hair and complained in a low voice:

"It's fine if you practice with the sword, but why don't you be more careful? You're such a grown-up, but you still make me worried."

Of course Chen Tao didn't cut his hair off accidentally, but did it on purpose.

He didn't like having long hair, so he cut part of it, and then naturally trimmed it until it became neck-length, which was barely acceptable.

But by doing this, he scared Mrs. Liang badly.

After all, if you are not careful, you may cut the neck at this position, and then you will be the one sending the young to their deaths.

Chen Tao smiled and comforted her: "Mom, from now on I won't practice with the sword, I'll only practice with the gun and the stick, this way it won't be so dangerous."

Madam Liang warned: "Even an iron spear head can be sharp. You must be careful and don't hurt yourself again."

Born in a noble family, since he did not take the imperial examination through literature, he naturally had to practice skills such as cold weapons and riding and archery.

And Mrs. Liang would not protect her youngest son like Lady Jia protected Baoyu and raise him in a secluded place.

In fact, at the end of the book, Liang Han did fight with the thieves and saved the neighbors nearby.

The Yongchang Marquis Mansion is very close to the imperial city. One can imagine who lives nearby, so there will definitely be benefits.

He is not a weakling like Baoyu.

When it is time to pick up a knife and chop someone, he has the determination and the corresponding ability, otherwise he will not be able to withstand those beautiful women.

Therefore, Molan was not living as badly as outsiders thought. Although Liang Han was a playboy, he still liked her very much. Even if he saw her sending a lot of women, he had to protect her!

She is the mistress of the house.

She is so reasonable and even a scumbag would love her.

It is unreasonable for Gu Tingye to turn over a new leaf and treat Sheng Minglan wholeheartedly!

After leaving Mrs. Liang's courtyard, Chen Tao took Yuanyuan back to his own small courtyard.

Main house.

Aunt Chun Ge, who was building a relationship with the head maid Xiuzhu, didn't take it too seriously when she saw her man coming back with Yuanyuan, whose face was still bruised.

In fact, she doesn't care about anyone except Grandma Liang Si, who has not yet decided on a candidate.

It was not until cousin Tao told Xiuzhu, "This girl is in your care. You don't have to pay her monthly allowance. It will come from the madam," that she became alert.

There is no doubt that this little girl who was beaten by someone is Madam Liang's person, and now she is told it clearly. Is this a warning?

Chun Ge couldn't help but think too much.

This is normal.

As for house-fighting stories, they must have all kinds of conspiracy theories and little tricks, otherwise how can they fight?

You can't just go in and fight with your weapons.

Xiuzhu agreed with a smile, then left with Yuanyuan.

She has a sweet-looking face, but has a pair of well-proportioned long legs, and her skin is white and rosy as if she had been covered with powder. In Chen Tao's opinion, she is really no worse than Chun Ge, but her thinking and ideas are too mature. Just like Xiren, she is very serious and rigid in her behavior, and not as capable as Wan Chun Ge.

Therefore, it is impossible for Liang Han to experience the feeling of being in love.

Of course, this cannot be blamed on her, after all, her status is too low.

Wan Chunge can cry and make a fuss, but it is difficult for Madam Liang to deal with her because, after all, she is also the legitimate master of the relative's family.

Xiuzhu was just a maid, and Mrs. Liang only needed to say a word to decide her fate, so she didn't dare to act rashly and just wanted to live a stable life as a concubine in the future.

Before Zheng Yuanyuan went out, she stole another glance at Chun Ge, and then found an opportunity to ask Xiuzhu about the situation.

After all, this is not the TV version, so there must be many differences. She cannot rely entirely on the TV version to do things. Besides, the Liang family itself does not have many roles and the information is limited, so she still has to take it one step at a time.

After she followed Xiuzhu around and had a general understanding of the yard, she was assigned specific work, which was to stay in Brother Tao's room and serve him.

After all, she is Madam Liang's person. According to future expectations, she will at least be a second-class maid or above, and will not have to do the most strenuous cleaning work. Of course, she is just a low-ranking maid now, and she must first undergo training and pass the test before she can actually take up the job.

Otherwise, she might become a servant girl who cannot even enter the main room at will, and her future would be bleak.

In short, her starting point was low, and too low...

Zheng Yuanyuan took the teacup that Xiuzhu handed to her, walked nervously to Brother Tao, and said haltingly:
"Fourth Master, please have some tea!"

Chun Ge, who was playing Go with Brother Tao, couldn't help laughing when he saw her and said deliberately:
"Why are you so reserved? Can the Fourth Master eat you? I'm thirsty too. Pour me another cup."

What the hell...

Zheng Yuanyuan was secretly unhappy and wanted to splash the tea on her and Tao Ge's faces, then picked up a broom and rushed out, but in the end she did not do anything wrong.

She decided to endure it for a while, and when she could no longer tolerate it, she would do something big!
Chen Tao took the teacup and said with a smile:
"Sister, don't bully Yuanyuan. She was abducted when she was young and her life story is very pitiful. I couldn't bear to see her being bullied by the pimp, so I bought her back. If you bully her, why would I spend this money?"

Chun Ge's eyes turned red and he cried:
"Who did I bully? How dare I bully your girl? This past year, I have been bullied by you!"

"This acting, tsk tsk..."

Zheng Yuanyuan secretly admired.

Chen Tao pretended to be puzzled and said, "Sister, why do you say that? Since you came here, I have loved you enough, how could I bully you?" 'This guy is not an acting skill, he must be a playboy. He doesn't think it's wrong to find another woman, right? '

Zheng Yuanyuan was very disgusted.

Chun Ge said aggrievedly: "Then why do you have to go to the brothel? You have me at home, as well as Xiuzhu and Hongyu, isn't that enough?"

She is different from Molan. Molan would give women to her husband, but she would not. Her possessiveness is quite strong.

Chen Tao took a sip of tea and asked back as if he didn't think he was wrong:

"It's true that I went to the brothel, but I didn't do anything wrong. Didn't I accompany you these past few nights? Madam repeatedly told me not to spoil you too much, but I pushed her back. Doesn't that mean I don't love you enough?"

When Chun Ge heard this, he tactfully wiped his tears with a handkerchief, and then said with a touching look on his face:

"Good brother~ Don't contradict my wife for my sake. I seduced you, so I should be punished by my wife."

Oh, so giegie

Zheng Yuanyuan felt a chill in her heart, but she wanted to continue watching. This was much more exciting than watching TV.

Chen Tao glanced at her and secretly complained in his heart: "This girl might also be a time traveler!"

the reason is simple.

On the way back, she subconsciously said "I'll go", and her expression was not like that of a child.

The weather in Beijing in early May is still relatively cool.

It was about two quarter past two in the afternoon, which was around 2:30.

Chen Tao finished his nap, but was too lazy to get up and do his work.

If Jia Baoyu can ask Bihen to accompany him to take a bath for two or three hours, then there is nothing wrong with Chen Tao asking Hongyu to accompany him to sleep for a while longer.

Although Hongyu is a little thin, she is good-looking with an oval face. She has a weak personality and is not as strong as Caijin.

Cai Jin is also a little beauty.

In general, Xiuzhu's personality is more like Xiren, while Caijin is like a combination of Sheyue and Qingwen. She is stronger than Sheyue, but not as strong as Qingwen.

As for Hongyu, it must be Jia Yingchun!
She did whatever Chen Tao asked her to do.

So Xiuzhu plays the good guy and Caijin plays the bad guy, and they work together to manage the yard.

Being a bad guy is necessary.

After all, wet nurses and old women are not easy to deal with. If you dare to indulge them, something bad will definitely happen.

Anyway, the Liang family doesn't treat their servants as arrogantly as the Sheng family. They beat them to death without hesitation and are not afraid of slave rebellion or murder lawsuits.

After all, we are all human beings, and we will definitely resist if pushed to the limit.

In later generations, some people still asked why they should pay wages to slaves. This is really a lack of common sense.

night.

The marquis's mansion naturally had plenty of candles and lamp oil, which, although not as good as electric lights, could dispel the darkness.

Zheng Yuanyuan, a female student who traveled through time, was very reluctant but still had to work as Chen Tao's foot washer.

In fact, Chen Tao had already taken a shower. He was used as a teaching aid by Xiuzhu to teach new colleagues.

After investigation, Xiuzhu found that Yuanyuan knew nothing, especially didn't know how to serve others. She was also stubborn. No wonder she was always beaten by the brothel owner. How pitiful!
Yuanyuan was washing her feet when Hongyu walked in from outside and said gently:
"Fourth Master, my aunt sent someone to invite you."

Chen Tao smiled and refused: "Let's not go to her place tonight, let's play dominoes!"

Yuanyuan secretly complained: "You did something bad this afternoon, and now you can't deal with your sister Chun Ge!"

She is a modern person, and she is also a college student, how could she not understand? She has even read it!
Smoldering indeed.

After Hongyu left, Chen Tao touched Yuanyuan's head and asked:

"Do you still remember where you live? I can send someone to help you find your relatives."

Yuanyuan's mind raced, and she pretended to be pitiful and said miserably, "I don't remember anything."

In order to prepare for the college entrance examination, she also read the original novel of Dream of Red Mansions and felt that her life experience was a bit like Xiangling.

The person in front of him was obviously not the dull bully Xue Pan, but rather a passionate young man like Jia Baoyu.

Actor Chen sighed softly, "She has no parents, no relatives, how pitiful. Xiuzhu, please don't be too harsh on her, let her live peacefully here with us!"

Xiuzhu agreed solemnly.

Yuanyuan also blinked, trying hard to look touched.

Chen Tao laughed: "Why are you looking at me like that? Wipe my feet."

asshole!

Yuanyuan really wanted to learn from Bao Longxing how he dealt with Sangu and pour Chen Tao’s foot washing water on his head.

But she was timid again.

She is stubborn and timid.

Chun Ge was naturally unhappy when she learned that Chen Tao was unwilling to come and accompany her, so she simply came over with her belly bulging.

Chen Tao didn't chase her away, and the whole family started playing dominoes.

At the hour of Haizheng, which was a little after ten o'clock in the evening, the show ended and everyone went to rest.

Chun Ge didn't want to go back, so he fell asleep next to Chen Tao.

Yuanyuan was sleeping in the small bed in the outer room, dreaming that when she opened her eyes the next morning, she would be back in the real world.

The next morning.

Chen Tao slept in, and after Xiuzhu helped him dress and wash, Mrs. Liang's maid Yunzhi came to invite him.

The old lady of the Sheng family came to visit, and Mrs. Liang invited him to meet her.

'The old lady of the Sheng family?'

Yuanyuan became excited: "Is the plot starting now? It's going to be fun! Hehe!"

It must be said that the environment of the Marquis' Mansion was indeed much better than that of a brothel, and it even made her want to find joy in the midst of misery.

It’s a pity that she, as a little girl, is not qualified to watch it in person.

With a snap, Chen Tao patted her on the head and said with a smile:
"Why are you grinning like an idiot? Come in and change my clothes!"

There is a difference between casual clothes for home and clothes for meeting strangers.

Yuanyuan was flustered and said with embarrassment: "Fourth Master, I don't know how to do it."

Chen Tao had another brainstorm: "If you don't know how, then learn it! I've asked before, you've learned to play the pipa, you still have to practice in the future, and learn to sing songs by the way, or go to the countryside and farm for our family."

"What does Zheng Yuan learn have to do with me, Zheng Yuanyuan? I'm not an art student, how can I understand this!"

Yuanyuan had a sad face, and the remaining bruises made her look funny.
