Maid's Survival Manual

Chapter 88
Manman has always believed that fate cannot be counted on others, so at this moment, is she giving up her last hope, or is she dying?Should we stick to our original intention, or change the direction of the wind and show our favor to Chen Yunfang from now on?
She has a lot of time now, so Manman asked the two mothers beside her: "Can you bring me some needles and threads? I am idle and I am idle."

Those two wives are the confidantes of Master Chen who served in the outer courtyard, and their attitude towards Manman has always been neither humble nor overbearing. They did not refuse her request, but said very tactfully: "Young lady is a smart person, I don't think I will embarrass myself, and I will not embarrass the servants. The master has already asked his wife to prepare your dowry. If the girl feels bored and wants to make some gadgets, the servants will be happy to help the girl."

Manman smiled bitterly and said, "Two mothers, don't worry, I have already promised the master, and I won't go back on my word. I'm just idle and bored, just killing time, and I won't commit suicide if I can't think about it."

She also pretended to be shy and lowered her head and said: "I was originally limited in female celebrities, but now it is no different from the past, I always have to make something with my own hands for the third master, the master, the wife, the uncle, and the grandma to express my affection. "

Although the two women were dubious, they still spoke very politely: "You can think so clearly, and the master and wife will feel at ease, and I ask the girl to be calm, and the slaves will go to prepare for the girl. What are you going to do?"

Only then did Manman get a little excited, and said: "Time is short, and I can't make more delicate things, so let's make some small things like sachets and purses." She humbly asked the two women Ask: "I don't know if any mothers have any suggestions?"

The two women said: "Young lady thinks very much. However, since it is a meeting gift, it is natural to please the master and wife. Why don't you make some underwear for the wife and two pairs of shoes for the master... as long as the girl wants If you have the heart, it’s okay for the servants to do it for you, as long as the girl finishes it.” Uh, is this encouraging her to steal and play tricks?
Manman made a gesture of joy: "It would be even better to have two mothers to help."

But in my heart I am not disappointed, this excuse is not valid anymore, Mr. Chen and Mrs. Chen will not let her spare time to fulfill this "filial piety".

The mother-in-law went to prepare by herself, and all she brought over was high-quality cloth and silk thread.

Manman knew that they must have asked Mrs. Chen for instructions, and Mrs. Chen had no objection.

Now that it's here, it's safe, and Manman holds back his temper and does needlework.The two wives were there to accompany her, but instead of doing it for her, they found two other skilled craftsmen to fly needles and stitches beside her, and within two days they took shape. Sure enough, there were two pairs of shoes and two suits. Underwear.

Manman thought that the father and mother of this deity should be here, and sure enough, the two wives came in early in the morning with bright clothes and jewelry, and said, "Girl, these are new clothes that my wife asked someone to buy for you. Try to see if it fits? I don’t know if you have anything to prepare, so please tell the servants, after noon, the master told you to visit your father’s hall.”

Manman tried her best to suppress her heartbeat that was about to jump out, and calmly asked one of the older women: "Mother Chen, I don't know where my father and mother are at the moment?"

Chen's mother said: "This, the servants don't know, and the girl doesn't need to worry, the master will send someone to invite the girl later."

Manman lowered her head and said, "I want to go out of the house for a while."

Chen's mother immediately said with a slightly sullen face: "That's not okay."

Manman understood a little bit that even if she saw her, she would only let Su Manman's parents come into the house to see her. Before she and Chen Yunfang cooked rice, she would not even think about stepping out of this small courtyard. .

Manman then explained: "I mentioned to the master earlier that I have saved some money in the past few years, and I want to take the opportunity of seeing my parents to hand over the money to them, and ask my mother to be flexible."

Chen's mother said: "Young lady's filial piety, the master and wife have known it early in the morning. Girl, don't worry, the master will arrange it."

Manman gritted his teeth angrily.Could it be that if she doesn't show off her power, just treat her as a sick cat?

Manman said angrily: "I don't care what the master has arranged, even if he gives my parents a mountain of gold and silver, it has nothing to do with me. But even if I only save a dozen or twenty taels of silver for my parents, that is My regards."

Mother Chen comforted her and said, "Girl, why do you have to get angry over such a small matter? When the matter between you and the third master is over, you can bring your father as much silver taels or gifts as you want, and no one else will dare to say no." ?”

He waited and waited again, just trying to pinch her weakness, pinch her neck, and let her obediently let them manipulate her.

He tossed all the clothes aside in a manly manner, and said, "What's the matter? Although I'm a girl from a small family, I was raised by my parents after all. The jewel in the palm of your hand, just married in such a muddle-headed way, will I be trampled by you like this even if I repay the little nurturing kindness to my parents?"

While talking and crying, Manman grabbed those jewelry again and was about to throw it on the ground, saying: "What rare troubles, do you think I'm prostitution?"

Seeing Manman being so aggressive, Mother Chen was displeased, but she didn't dare to provoke her, so she hurriedly scolded the two little maids, hugged Manman by the waist, dragged her to a chair and sat down, and said, "My servant persuades the girl It's better to be self-confident, don't make too much trouble."

Reluctantly, Manman got up again, and said: "Identity? What identity do I have? In the past, I was the mud that was trampled under my feet, but now it is my aunt, but I am guarded by you day and night. What's the difference between him and a death row prisoner? If I had known what the master said at the beginning, I would rather die than agree to it."

Manman unscrupulously talked about Mr. Chen, because he was sure that Mr. Chen might not tell the two wives about this transaction.The so-called family ugliness should not be publicized. If it is really said, there is nothing good on the face of the Chen family.

Because of her bluffing and deceit, Mother Chen was really a little suspicious, after all, she didn't know what conditions Master Chen had promised to Manman back then.Even her parents came to pick her up, and bought her a dowry, which is obviously different from ordinary aunts.Since Mr. Chen attaches so much importance to it, it is not out of the ordinary for her to give the money she saved to the second elder of the Su family.

After thinking about this, Mother Chen said: "Young lady said the wrong thing. The master and wife value the girl very much. It's the slave who can't speak. Why don't the slave and maid ask the master for instructions..."

Now Manman calmed down, smoothed out the messy hair on the sideburns during the struggle, and panted slightly: "You don't have to make things difficult, and I won't make things difficult for the master, it's just a small sum in my bank account. As for the silver, you just need to exchange it, it doesn’t take much.”

Mrs. Chen compromised, signaled to the others that Manman was optimistic, and went to talk to Mr. Chen herself.Master Chen snorted, and said, "I'm too lazy to care about her. If she doesn't feel comfortable anymore, let her suffer."

At this moment, Chen Yun was standing aside, and said, "Father, what Su Manman said is true. She did save some money, which was used to redeem herself as promised. The ticket in this ticket number is still her son's money." It's not a big deal. If you ask someone to exchange it for her, it will reassure her. After all, she must be a little bit wronged in her heart. Since you know that she is just using it to make trouble, why bother with Does she have general knowledge?"

Now that Chen Yunyun had already spoken, Mr. Chen was unwilling to haggle over every detail with Manman at this juncture, so he snorted heavily and said, "In that case, why don't you run away."

It's here, the money has been delivered to Manman, but Manman's plan that the shopkeeper of the ticket number will deliver the letter for her has come to nothing. In the dead of night, she listened to the heartless voice of the little girl outside, He sighed and sighed, but he couldn't sleep all night.
