Thanks for the invitation: In ancient times, people shared children

Chapter 173

The eunuchs in the palace are the most special group of people.

There are only a dozen of them, not many people, not high-ranking officials, but a lot of things to do.

And according to Zhang Fengci, most of these people were sent here because they could no longer make it in the palace, or they offended someone they shouldn't have offended.

Most of the time, it is impossible to go back in your lifetime.

There is no possibility of achieving anything.

Logically speaking, they should be honest.

But they are not willing to suffer any loss in their work and want to get all the benefits. No one in the mansion dares to mess with them, and some people are even afraid of them.

It’s not that they are so powerful, but because they come from the palace and represent the emperor’s face, so no one dares to bother with them.

When the children heard people gossiping, they talked about them, saying that they were also the emperor's eyes and ears, and would write down what happened in the palace and send it back to the palace.

If anyone dares to provoke them, something big will happen, and even the prince may die.

So what does it matter if everyone just looks at their faces? The masters are all afraid of them.

The words sounded so real that the child even went to ask Zhang Fengci about it.

Zhang Fengci's face turned black at that moment, and he angrily said, "What nonsense are you talking about? Do you know who the prince is? He is the emperor's uncle. Don't you think the emperor doesn't trust him and trusts us instead?"

What he said makes a lot of sense.

But the next day, the two gossiping cooks disappeared.

Mrs. Chai said they did something wrong and were kicked out.

But the evasive look and stiff smile made the child realize that she might have done something wrong.

Oh, there's no end to this kind of thing.

Let’s get back to the point. No matter what the rumors are, Lian Li is just a servant and has no official position.

Following Chen Dianshen, he served tea and water, even though he was wearing a blue brocade robe.

Zhang Fengci said that there was no need to be afraid of him, and he was always teasing children, so of course the children were not polite to him.

Every time I see them, I call them Lianli, Lianli.

Although he always pressed the child's head, the child felt that he was not really angry, so he was inevitably bolder.

When she returned home, Aunt Yu was still waiting for her in the small main room with a lamp lit as usual.

There were a handful of peanuts and two pieces of cake on the table.

Aunt Yu said that she had taken it from Chef Li's house and had already eaten it, so she asked the girl to share in the good news and find a good husband in the future.

The children have eaten the food, so forget about the joy. Any ideal husband would run away when he hears about the bill for one thousand taels.

"That means this man isn't good enough," Aunt Yu said smoothly. "Don't say that, young lady, or you'll ruin your chance of marriage. We only live for one thought in this life, so regardless of whether it comes true or not, just think positively. Maybe one day we'll find someone rich and handsome, and by then, this little debt will be repaid in the blink of an eye, and there will be countless more riches to enjoy."

She was folding clothes, and suddenly she gathered them in her arms, thinking more.

"Then I'll follow the young lady and take advantage of her. I'll do nothing but sit there and order the maid around with my mouth..."

The child sniffed her closely and asked worriedly, "Auntie, how much did you drink? You didn't tell anyone about this, did you?"

Children still want to have some dignity.

Aunt Yu: "Go away, silly girl, you thought I was drunk. I am your aunt and I am sober. Let me tell you, this person's fate is strange. If he is really lucky, he will become rich overnight. Money will run home like long legs. He will enjoy it for several lifetimes..."

Then overnight, he was targeted by a thief, and his head moved away like long legs, rolling all over the ground, and his life was over.

As Aunt Yu was talking, she started talking about the past.

"My former master was also a scholar, a serious official. No scholar or student could compare to him. The girls in his family are well-educated and well-mannered..."

Aunt Yu couldn't continue, choked up, and grasped the child's hand: "Of course, you're not bad either. Look at you... You have a good body, a strong physique, and you know those cultivation methods. You will definitely live a long life in the future."

She fell on the bed crying and wiped her face with the child's clothes. She also said that the handkerchiefs used to wipe the face were all made of silk and satin.

Child:……

I might as well find a rich family and sell her to them.

Aunt Yu was really drunk. Perhaps today's wedding banquet reminded her of the girl she was before, that nice marriage and the good days in the past.

So she held the child and cried for a long time, then fell on the bed, resting her head on the pillow, leaning against the pumpkin and fell asleep. After a while, she sat up with a start and rubbed her face:

"Girl, why aren't you asleep yet? I've told you so many times that staying up late is bad for your hair. It can cause hair loss."

The child's eyes were filled with disbelief.

Pumpkin raised his cat head and looked at the two people irritably, snorted, and fell back.

Maybe he regretted coming back with his child.

But a mother will never mind if her son is ugly, and if a son complains about the noise at home, he will easily get beaten, so just make do with it.

An eleven-year-old child would never think about what Aunt Yu said.

She only cared about how long she could sleep tonight, whether she should practice, and what the chef of Zhang Fengci's family would cook tomorrow morning.

Oh, yes, and Uncle Feiming, the kids want to deliver lunch to Lianyintai tomorrow.

At least that's what the child thought before dawn.

Then in the morning, with two big dark circles under her eyes, she was like a broken soul, not thinking about anything. She numbly got up, dressed, washed up and ran to Zhang's house.

She knew that she should practice, but she also wanted to sleep. She hesitated for a long time, and when it was almost dawn, she closed her eyes and fell asleep, as if she had not slept at all.

Aunt Yu might have remembered something, and she rarely stopped nagging her.

Zhang Fengci was not polite: "Where have you been? You have dark circles under your eyes. Are you going to go up the mountain and be a bear? I told you to go home yesterday. Did you go home, or did you run off and have fun?"

Child:……

"I'm home."

"You're lying. You have dark circles under your eyes when you get home. Did you go to the market again?"

Child:……

"I didn't, I only went once!"

There is no curfew on the first and fifteenth days of the lunar month in Suicheng, and the child wanted to join in the fun, so he went to play after finishing his work at Zhang's house. As a result, he ran into Zhang Fengci, who asked the child to go home. The child agreed with some grunts, then turned around and ran away again.

I had a happy night of fun, but had the misfortune of meeting him again on my way home. The next day, he was like a ghost and I scolded him.

The child still feels aggrieved. She didn't delay her work, so why scold her?

"Who would believe that? Just have fun. You'll be lucky if a human trafficker comes and steals you tomorrow."

Zhang Fengci pointed at her and cursed her viciously.

Child: I’m so mad!

"Ah!!!! I didn't! I just didn't! I already said no! And you're still cursing me!" The child, who hadn't gotten enough sleep and still thought he was right, grabbed his hair, threw a tantrum, and started howling while sitting on the ground.

"Hey you!"

Zhang Fengci stretched out his finger, but seeing how wide her mouth was, he quickly retracted it, fearing she might get bitten. He felt a bit lost and said, "What's the use of this?"

"If there's nothing, then there's nothing. Why are you crying like a crybaby?"

Child: He still scolds?

"Wow!!!! You're still cursing, why aren't you done yet?"

The child kicked his legs and pounded the ground.

Zhang Fengci: ...

"Neither of us is done yet." He muttered softly, and the child cried even harder.

"Oh, no, I'm a grown-up girl. It would be ugly to cry like this. Why don't you be a little more polite and speak a little softer?"

Zhang Fengci looked around, trying to persuade her, but it was a little too late.

The neighbors have heard it.

Chen Dianshan: "Mani, you're beating the child so early in the morning?"
