Transmigrated into a concubine, the main task is to make money

Chapter 144: No room for concubines

After the meal, Lin Yuxi brought water for Yang Chenchuan to rinse his mouth, and Cuiping came to report: "Madam, Zheng Laoshi is here."

Her mouth was puffed up, and one could tell at a glance that she was angry with Zheng Laoshi. This was understandable, as the maids had a very good relationship with each other, and they felt sorry for Cuizhu when she was wronged.

Now Zheng Laoshi's mother looks down on Cuizhu, which means she looks down on herself and the young mistress, so her good impression of Zheng Laoshi has been greatly reduced, and naturally she is not in a good mood.

It was not convenient for a woman like Lin Yuxi to meet a stranger alone, so she asked Yang Chenchuan to accompany her. She asked the maid to put away the table while she talked to Yang Chenchuan about Cuizhu, and then asked someone to bring Zheng Laoshi over.

Zheng Laoshi walked in sweating profusely, and knelt down when he saw Lin Yuxi: "Madam, I'm here to beg you to let me see Mai'er."

The wheat he mentioned is naturally the green bamboo. The original name of green bamboo is winter wheat, which is a name that farmers would give it, either hoping for a good harvest of winter wheat or for the good growth of the seedlings.

"Since you have made a promise to your mother, why are you looking for her now? My Yang family does not want unfilial people."

She said with a cold face that what Zheng Laoshi's mother said was naturally hateful, but it was also the normal psychology of people. No matter which family, they would not marry a slave as a wife. Lin Yuxi knew this, but she was not angry with his mother, but with Zheng Laoshi.

I was angry that he clearly had Cuizhu in his heart, but he still promised his mother that he would no longer care about Hongling.

Well, since you've already agreed, why are you pestering me again now? What are you trying to do?

Zheng Laoshi was choked and couldn't speak for a while. He knelt down with his neck choked. Seeing that he was not getting the point, Lin Yuxi didn't want to waste time with him, so she said, "Go home. Don't worry about the shop. I will find someone to take over. Just take care of your injuries."

Zheng Laoshi got anxious when he heard this and said quickly: "Madam, please be kind enough to let me meet Cuizhu. I have something to tell her."

"What else do you have to say to her? The relationship between you has been severed since the moment you made a promise to your mother. Although my maid is a slave, she is more noble than your family and will never allow herself to be looked down upon." Lin Yuxi didn't even look at him and called for someone to drag him out.

"Young Madam, listen to me. I like Cuizhu. I know my mother's character. I just wanted to ease her anger, but I didn't expect Cuizhu to leave without saying a word."

The two servants came to pull him away, and Zheng Laoshi didn't care about anything else and told everything.

Lin Yuxi still refused to listen to him. "You can't afford to marry my maid. Since your mother doesn't want you to marry Cuizhu, it's useless for you to like her. I can tell you clearly that my maid will not be someone's mistress. You should go home and be a filial son."

"No, no, I never thought of letting Cuizhu be my mistress. I wanted to marry her as my wife." Zheng Laoshi explained quickly.

This was true to Lin Yuxi's heart, but she was still angry and sneered: "If you want to get married, why are you here alone? You are the only one who has the final say in getting married? You have no right to any of the parents' orders or the matchmaker's words. Without a matchmaker or a concubine, you are a concubine. Even a seven-year-old child knows this."

Zheng Laoshi knew he was in the wrong and his face turned red with shame, so he couldn't answer for a while. He just kept mumbling for a long time but couldn't put together a complete sentence.

Yang Chenchuan, who was sitting at the side, took a sip of tea and said, “Your parents don’t approve of you marrying Cuizhu. Even if you force yourself to marry her, your family won’t treat her well. Why don’t you go back and persuade your family and find a matchmaker to propose marriage.”

Yang Chenchuan suggested this kindly, and Zheng Laoshi also knew this was the truth, so he took the initiative to say goodbye and left in a hurry.

After Zheng Laoshi left, Lin Yuxi asked him, "Do you think it's appropriate to pair him with Cuizhu?"

Yang Chenchuan knew that she loved these maids very much, and he also knew that she would definitely not want to give them to others as mistresses. He saw that Zheng Laoshi was an honest person, but he was just stupid. Filial piety is a good thing, but foolish filial piety is not advocated, so he said to her: "If he can really convince his parents, it may not be a bad thing."

Lin Yuxi nodded, that was exactly the truth.

After Zheng Laoshi left, she called Luyun, Cuizhu and Cuiping to come over. Looking at the three of them, she felt emotional, remembering how they had helped her a lot when she was in the Lin family. She was grateful.

He wanted to tell them that he did not intend to trap them in the Ye family for life, but he was afraid that if he said this, they would become disloyal, so he said, "I am not partial to anyone. If you have served me well in the past few years, I will change your death contract into a living contract and let you become maids. How about that?"

The three of them were stunned, and then looked at Lin Yuxi in disbelief. Lu Yun didn't rush to be happy, and asked first: "Second Young Madam, what does it mean to serve well?"

Lin Yuxi thought for a moment and said, "Be loyal to the master, help the master solve his problems, be diligent, and so on. And, as you all know, I cannot tolerate concubines. And I hate those who are scheming the most."

After hearing these, the three of them felt that they could definitely meet these requirements, so they were really happy, clapped their hands and cheered a few times, knelt down and kowtowed, saying in unison: "Thank you, Madam."

Seeing how happy they were, Lin Yuxi couldn't help but shook her head. She glanced into the inner room and saw that Yang Chenchuan was already yawning, so she told them to go back and rest.

Lu Yun went out and closed the door. Lin Yuxi bolted the door and walked into the inner room to undress Yang Chenchuan. Yang Chenchuan hugged her and went to the bed to rest.

After sleeping for most of the hour, she woke up and found Yang Chenchuan staring at her. Her face turned red. Yang Chenchuan stroked her face and said with a smile: "My lady, has anyone told you that you like to talk in your sleep?"

Lin Yuxi's face fell when she heard this. She hit him with her hand and cursed: "I told you not to make fun of me!"

Yang Chenchuan's mouth was grinning from ear to ear, and he didn't take her fancy moves seriously at all. He didn't even try to dodge and let her hit him to her heart's content.

Seeing that he failed to teach him a lesson and his hand began to hurt, he became angry and stopped.

Cuiping, who was guarding the door outside, heard the noise inside the house, knocked on the door hurriedly, and said softly: "Is the young lady awake?"

At this time, Yang Chenchuan was pressing Yu Xin, taking advantage of her. Lin Yuxi couldn't resist, and Cuiping just happened to save her. She glared at him fiercely: "Be serious!"

She pushed Yang Chenchuan away, stood up, tidied her clothes, and then called Cuiping in.

Cui Ping pushed the door open and walked in. She secretly glanced at Yang Chenchuan on the bed, then glanced at Lin Yuxi. Her face slightly reddened, and she turned around and said, "The Madam sent someone to call you just now. I wonder what it is."

Lin Yuxi was stunned for a moment, then nodded and asked Cuiping to go out first. Then she turned around and looked at the person lying on the bed pretending to be dead, and said, "I don't know what tricks they are going to play. How about you go with me?"
