Chapter 229
Others were taking care of things, and Chen Xi suddenly came out as an idler. They all wanted her to rest and rest, and she also wanted to clear her mind and prepare her own career.

It's just that people are lazy after winter, and she is still wandering around all day long, checking the bills from time to time, and seeing what everyone is doing in the house.

every morning.

Mrs. Zhang will be full of energy and lead the women to clean the courtyard.

After Chen Xi got up, he was too lazy to go for a run, so he only went for a walk in the morning, and when he met her old man, he would stop to chat with her, and she was also very happy.

"Thanks to you, girl, we all depend on you for this day."

Although Mrs. Zhang's hair is gray now, she is serving delicious food and drinks. Her energy is completely different from before, and her complexion is ruddy.

She was also wearing thick clothes, which Fuzhu had ordered early in the morning, and everyone in the winter house also had new clothes, and her fabric was especially better.

Thinking of that lovable child, her old man was also so happy from ear to ear.

Chen Xi and Mrs. Zhang sat and chatted in the courtyard for a while, and the other little maids brought refreshments, and then they quietly withdrew to keep watch without disturbing them.

The round table is full of tea fragrance, which is a very elegant floral fragrance mixed with other tea leaves.

Chen Xi doesn't know much about tea, but she also knows that it's not bad. The tea leaves in Ping An's house are all brought by the old lady, and the others are also gifts from others when they moved house.

The circle is destined to be extraordinary, and the people who come here are either rich or expensive, and the things are naturally high-quality. Chen Xi likes to drink some small tea when he has nothing to do, and he is eloquent.

Looking at Mrs. Zhang's smiling and satisfied expression, she knew that her life was indeed good, and no one in the safe house would dare to make her angry.

Chen Xi still took a sip of scented tea, smiled lightly and said, "Grandma, as long as you live well."

Mrs. Zhang held a cup of fragrant tea and said with a cheerful smile: "Okay, everything is fine. I just accompany them to work every day, but they won't let me touch my hands. They respect me. This daily meal The wearability is excellent! In the past, I would never have dared to imagine this kind of life, and it was full of fine grains."

The old man gave her a detailed analysis of the four aspects of food and clothing, and said how difficult it was in the past, but how good it is now. The most important thing is that the young master is better than her, and she feels comforted in her heart. The mood is beautiful, and the whole person feels much more energetic .

In fact, Chen Xi and Mrs. Zhang sat down to have a serious talk this year, but it was not many times. The previous few times were in the east courtyard. She still remembered the old and decadent face of the old man. Comparing with the current appearance, she also felt comforted in her heart. .

After all, it is no longer empty talk that good people get good rewards, and her loyal servant has finally made it through. It is really not easy, God knows how hard she was in the past.

It was rare for Chen Xi to be free, so he became interested in gossip and started asking.

Seeing that she was interested, Mrs. Zhang also smiled and said: "Success, the girl likes to hear these things. My old woman can't do anything else, but it's okay to tell you these stories. Are we low-level servants really good?" suffering."

"I remember when I first entered the mansion, I worked day and night, and I didn't dare to see people, because I couldn't look directly at people, and my waist was so sore all day long that I couldn't straighten up."

"Carrying loads, moving and moving, there are no outsiders in the back house, and it is impossible for the master to do the work. Those heavy, tiring, and dirty jobs are all done by rough envoys and servants."

"It's nothing to do the most tiring job, but I'm afraid of being bullied! Those are big fish eating small fish, and small fish eating dried shrimps, leaving no bones."

"Changing ways to get money from you, but if you get some rewards, you can't keep it without any ability! How hard life is, we can eat some soup when the boss is happy, if the boss is unhappy or something goes wrong, Let's designate the first to suffer!"

Mrs. Zhang was also full of bitterness when talking about the past, but now that her life is good, she feels comforted in her heart. After all, those things are in the past, and she no longer clings to them. When she said it, she felt much more relaxed.

After all, it is absolutely impossible to go back to this kind of life. The magpie girl is so capable, and the little maids are also very competitive, and my young master is so cautious and reliable, and his ability is also great. Everyone will only get better and better in the future. the better.

Chen Xi listened to Mrs. Zhang talking about the past on the other side of the heat, and unconsciously immersed herself in it, and seemed to experience it personally along with the story she described.

She felt terrible when she thought of having to carry a pile of dirty clothes to wash in the cold winter months, because to save firewood, the water for washing clothes could not be hot, and besides, how could all the clothes of so many people be washed in hot water? ?
Mrs. Zhang said that their hands were all frostbitten, and some of them who couldn't work would be sold to those dirty places. They said that they were the cheapest places. They're all rough men who can't get a wife.

Because of this kind of coercion, even the poor maidservants and younger wives tried their best to endure it, for fear that life would be worse than death.

Chen Xi felt emotional, and originally wanted to ask, how can he work if his hand is broken?Wouldn't it be a waste of labor if the hand is broken?

But then she thought about the medical system here. It is impossible to spend a lot of money to treat them. Sometimes they themselves are not worth as much as a bottle of good medicine, so how could it be possible to waste this to treat them?

They are like livestock, they can be used as long as they can be used, and if they can't be used, they can squeeze out the final benefits, bloodletting, plucking their hair and eating meat, and they will be thrown out of the mass grave in the end.

Pitiful.

sad.

Chen Xi was silent.

In the past, she knew how miserable it is to be a slave, and she also learned it from other people.

But she was surrounded by a lot of second-class maids like her, and even Chunhong was on guard at that time, so she didn't talk about it in detail, and she didn't know that the low-level servants were so miserable, starving to death or being beaten. There are many deaths.

Very bleak.

Chen Xi suddenly felt chilly, luckily her appearance was okay, not the worst, if she really got to that point, she would really have to take off a layer of skin if she wanted to stand up.

Scary.

Chen Xi thought back to the days when she came here, if something went wrong, she would not be able to sit here enjoying tea and snacks now.

It's really dangerous.

God treats her well.

Mrs. Zhang also repeatedly lamented that she is a brave girl, she actually thought of something that others dare not think of, and she dared to think and do it. Today, except for her better luck, it is really due to her courage and wit .

Chen Xi saw that she praised him repeatedly, so he smiled embarrassingly, and said: "Where, like you said, in today's world, no one can do without it, and there is no unparalleled road. God made way for us."
