Daughter's Portable Space

Chapter 29
The old man of the Luo family gave birth to two sons and one daughter, but the eldest son was born to his first wife, and only the second master and aunt were born to the old lady.The second master is naturally Luo Yunrui's father, and the aunt is Luo Rongzhi.

But the old man of the Luo family moved his family to another place a few years ago, not because he didn't get along with his family, but because he went to be an official in another place.Luo Yunrui is not very clear about the affairs in the officialdom, whether it is the previous life or the present life.She knew that the Grand Master's official position was great, of course this was not the most important thing, the key was that the Grand Master's maternal ancestral family was the real famous family.

Therefore, in the Luo family, the elder's status is very high, even the old lady or the second master will not make things difficult for the elder.Moreover, the Elder Master inherited his biological mother's dowry and received support from his maternal ancestral family. It can be said that the future is truly boundless.His wife, the eldest wife, is also from a famous family, and it is said that she is the daughter of a good friend of his uncle.

In a word, the old man doesn't care about the Luo family, but whether he cares or not, the Luo family's property belongs to him.

If this girl was really served in the master's study before, then no one in the Luo family would dare to let her serve her anymore, especially the second master.

Luo Yunrui knew her father very well. Maybe he looked very capable and resourceful, but he definitely couldn't be compared with the old man.Besides, the second master is not the kind of person who is obsessed with sex, and the girl is not tall enough to confuse everyone, so it is normal for the girl to be delayed.After all, in the current Luo family, only the old master and the second master are eligible to take concubines.

Thinking of this, Luo Yunrui laughed, looking at Xiaolu's puzzled eyes, she explained in a low voice: "My sister is not as good-looking as my sister, and she is younger than my sister, but she married first, and she is still married. It's so good, I really don't know what it's like to be a sister."

Xiaolu was taken aback for a moment, then subconsciously tensed up.

According to the law of this dynasty, if the eldest sister is not married, the younger sisters below are not allowed to marry.Of course, if the eldest brother is not married, the younger brothers cannot marry wives.No one knows the reason why such a law was enacted, but one thing is certain, this law does exist.

In fact, under normal circumstances, not many people would care about such a law.Especially the servants, not all the masters have the final say, let alone care about such things.But Xiaolu is different. Her previous family background was not bad, and her father was a scholar. Although she herself cannot be regarded as talented in literature, she still understands some truths.

Carefully looking at Luo Yunrui, Xiaolu asked hesitantly: "Niuer is 19 years old this year, she is not married yet, I'm afraid..."

Luo Yunrui glanced at Xiaolu strangely, not understanding how she came here.In fact, the law does not stipulate what age must be married, especially the slaves, who are usually betrothed by the master's family, and there is no way to marry at an early age.After all, being in her teens happens to be the time when she can be on her own: "So what? It's not true that she can't get married. If she really can't get married, let Mrs. Zeng report back, and grandma will definitely help arrange the marriage. of."

She is not a capable maid, so there is nothing to be reluctant about.The home-born child is specially paired with the home-born child, and it happens to be betrothed early so that the child can be born again.

Xiaolu hesitated even more, she was a smart girl, she faintly felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't tell for a while.Looking at Luo Yunrui, she didn't seem to have that kind of thought, so she suppressed her own thoughts.

It's not that Luo Yunrui has no thoughts, but she just feels that no matter how much dissatisfaction that girl has in her heart, it has nothing to do with her.However, she also took this matter to heart, thinking that after Bi'er's child was born, she might let that girl take care of it.

This idea is good, but before Luo Yunrui made a suggestion to Mrs. Zeng, something happened to Bi'er again.This time it was because of her cousin, Niu'er.

Luo Yunrui learned about this in the old lady's room, and when she heard Liuli's report, the old lady trembled with anger.The reason is very simple, Niu'er didn't know why, but actually had an argument with Bi'er, and the result of the dispute was that Bi'er was pushed to the ground and fainted again.

When Liuli came to complain, Dr. Li had already visited. Fortunately, Bier's child was saved, but the condition of the child was even worse.This time, Dr. Li made it clear that even if the child was born safely, he would still be a sick child.

The old lady immediately ordered someone to enforce the family law on Niu'er, with a staff of twenty, and enforced the family law in public.Perhaps at first glance, twenty sticks is not too heavy a punishment, but it is a very serious punishment for enforcing the family law in public.

Staff punishment, as the name implies, is to hit the buttocks of the punished with a special long stick, twenty times is not too heavy, after all, the people who punished are only two old women.But the problem is that the Luo family's family law stipulates that the person punished must take off his pants and be beaten with a stick.Thinking of her, a 19-year-old girl, taking off her panties in front of everyone, even if all the onlookers are servants and maidservants, it is embarrassing enough.

Sighing, Luo Yunrui felt that this person might not be able to marry. Although she was not punished by the man, the children of the family were all related by marriage.Think about it, among the servants who were watching, there might be some who need to propose marriage to their son or grandson. After seeing this scene, who else would think so?No matter how beautiful the face is, it can't be worth the lost face.

After being punished, Niu'er was naturally no longer able to serve in Bi'er's house. She was sent to the laundry room to do the heaviest work.

Luo Yunrui also forgot about her after sighing, until Xiaolu secretly told her that day that someone saw Niuer interacting with Aunt Xue's people.

"Aunt Xue? What is she doing?" Niu'er is Bi'er's cousin, and Luo Yunrui always felt that maybe Niu'er was really uncomfortable because Bi'er married better than her, so the two started arguing, but why? I didn't expect that there would be Aunt Xue's business in it.

"I don't know, but someone saw that Aunt Xue's person gave Niu'er a piece of silver." Xiaolu said, and couldn't help but burst into tongues.

There is a fixed amount of silver in this dynasty, usually 5 taels for an ingot, and there are also large ingots of 10 taels and 20 taels.But even the smallest 5 taels of silver ingot is a big amount.You know, Luo Yunrui's monthly bill is only 5 taels, and a first-class maid like Xiaolu's monthly bill is 2 qian.To put it bluntly, Xiaolu can be bought for 5 taels of silver.

And for a maid like Niu'er who has been punished in public, 5 taels of silver is too much for her prostitution money.

"This is getting more and more interesting, but if even you have heard about it, it can be seen that Mrs. Zeng has heard about it."

Luo Yunrui's guess was right, this matter was done in a non-secret manner, almost everyone in the Luo family knew about it, and it was unknown who Aunt Xue had sent to do this matter.Not long after, the old lady called Mrs. Zeng over again, and then a maid saw Ren Yazi coming in, but she didn't bring any children in, but brought Niu'er with her before going out.

What made Luo Yunrui happy was that the old lady not only had Niu'er taken away, but also specially sent Liuli to deliver a message to Aunt Xue.He said that since he is pregnant, he should stay in the yard and not come out if there is nothing to do. It is best to detain his subordinates, even if something really happens, he can send someone to the old lady's yard to talk about it.

What was said inside and outside the box, the only difference was that Aunt Xue was grounded.

Luo Yunrui really wanted to know how Aunt Xue would react when she heard this.Because of this incident, Luo Yunrui's appetite was whetted for a while, and she was in a good mood for a few days, but unfortunately, the good mood completely disappeared because of the visit of the concubine sister a few days later.

This time, Shumei didn't come to ask for trouble, in fact, she came to complain.

"Sister, this is really an innocent disaster! A few days ago, because of my little aunt's affairs, my aunt's body has been uncomfortable, and she couldn't get out of bed for several days, let alone meddling in other people's affairs. Moreover, The maids in Auntie’s yard are not familiar with the people in Bi’er’s side at all, although they are all servants of the Luo family, most of the servants in Auntie’s yard were bought later.”

Luo Yunrui frowned, yes, the number of children in the family is limited after all, and the Luo family has a big business, many of the children were sent to the village or shop as stewards after they were a little older, it is impossible for them all to be there The Luo family serves the master.Therefore, most of the courtyards of the old lady and the Luozhang family were home-born children, and like Luo Yunrui and Shumei, the majority were home-born children before, but later they all changed to maids bought from Ren Yazi.

As for Aunt Xue, she has been in the house for many years. When she first came in, the old lady gave two maids, but the others were bought later.In other words, Aunt Xue is not familiar with Mrs. Zeng at all!

That's right, Mrs. Zeng has always belonged to the Luo Zhang family, and most of her descendants also work under the Luo Zhang family.For example, her husband and son are both in charge of Luo Zhang's dowry shop. If it is said that this matter was ordered by Luo Zhang, it is more convincing than Aunt Xue's order.

However, because of Mrs. Luo Zhang's temperament, and because Luo Yunrui has tidied up the yard these days, the servants in the yard are almost isolated from the world except for going to the kitchen every day to get some servants' meals. up.The old lady would definitely not doubt Luo Zhang, but if it wasn't for Luo Zhang, then only Aunt Xue did it.

"Sister, I'm telling the truth, this matter really has nothing to do with Auntie. Think about it, Auntie and Bi'er don't know each other, and they have no conflict at all. Why does Auntie have to get along with Bier? Besides, Even if this matter has something to do with my aunt, but the matter is over, why would she give money to that Bier's sister?"

The concubine's words were extremely sincere, but Luo Yunrui could tell that she must have been taught what she said.But that's not the point. The point is that what the concubine sister said is really reasonable.

Aunt Xue is not stupid, thinking about the past life, Luo Yunrui will not doubt her ability.Besides, the child in Bi'er's womb was already unstable, even if it was born, it might not be able to compete with Aunt Xue's child, and she didn't know Luo Yunrui's plan, so there was no need to do so.Taking a ten thousand step back, if Aunt Xue really did this, she definitely has the ability to prevent anyone from finding out about it.

But if Aunt Xue didn't do it, who would it be?
