However, Madam Hou quickly raised her head and looked coldly at the Second Madam. “Then, does the Second Mistress think that after I go to the southwest, I will be able to survive if I continue to stay in the Shu family?”
Madam Hou understood the nature of the Shu family. In the past, the Shu family had servants to serve them, and they, as concubines and concubines, had better days, but that was all.
When they reached the southwest, there would be no servants or money. Concubines like them would become servants of the Shu family.
Not only did they have to complete the labor work a.s.signed by the government outside, but they also had to serve these people when they returned home. How long could she last like this?
It was even possible that the Shu family would give her to a local rich family to live a good life. It was not like they had never heard of such a thing.
Previously, she had no way to do it, but now, she was no longer.
She had already discussed it with the Sixth Young Lady when she was sitting on the handcart just now, along with the suggestion of the official driving the carriage. They planned to look for Lord Qi when they reached the southwest and beg him for help. They wanted to cut ties with the Shu family and find a better place to go.
This favor was considered returned.
Therefore, she did not want to maintain a good relationship with the Shu
family anymore.
Shu Yu had already come out of the carriage. She was eating the bun slowly while watching.
Second Madam was angered by Madam Hou. The official came to chase her away again, so she could only turn around and leave.
Madam Hou and the Sixth Young Lady got off the cart. Their lunch today was the same as Shu Yu’s, and the food was much better.
Madam Hou took the buns and walked towards Shu Yu. Who knew that they would be stopped halfway?
This time it was the Second Young Lady.
Second Madam was different from the bossy Second Madam. She was the daughter of a concubine of the First household. Previously in the prison, she had already tried to rope in the Fifth Young Lady and Sixth Young Lady who were also concubine daughters.
Therefore, she began to play the emotional card, wanting to make her life better through the young Sixth Young Lady.
However, when the Sixth Young Lady saw her coming, she immediately hid behind Madam Hou.
She had long heard Madam Hou say that the Second Young Lady was not a good person. Her thoughts were deep and she was even scarier than the Eldest Young Lady and the Fourth Young Lady. Previously in prison, she had no choice. If she did not stand with Second Sister, she would be the one being pushed aside. That was why she listened to Madam Hou and temporarily stood on the Second Young Lady’s side.
The Second Young Lady’s plan did not succeed, and she was a little angry out of embarra.s.sment. She looked at the Sixth Young Lady with a gloomy gaze, turned around, and left.
Madam Hou spat softly. “Do you still want to use my daughter? Dream on.”
She took the Sixth Young Lady’s hand, walked to Shu Yu, sat down, and began to eat.
Shu Yu had already finished eating and had also watched the whole thing from beginning to end. She was quite puzzled. “l thought you would temporarily maintain a good relationship with the Shu family.”
Madam Hou was stunned, then she shook her head and smiled bitterly. “It’s not worth it. I know the personality of the Shu family. They are not good people. ”
“But they weren’t wrong. When they reach the southwest, the Second Lord and the Eldest Young Master of the Shu family will come. You are the Second Lord’s concubine and the Sixth Young Lady is his daughter.”
Madam Houi sneered. “So what? Without money and power, when everyone was tortured beyond recognition, a concubine would not be a concubine, and a daughter would not be a daughter. At that time. the Sixth Young Lady and I would only be the lowest-level servants of the Shu family. Do you believe me?”
Shu Yu thought about it. “l do.”
She did not have much hope for the Shu family’s character. Even if there were no servants, they would still create servants..
