The Love of Passerby A

Chapter 834 The Housekeeper's Daughter Watching the Young Master's Love (Ancient Times) 5

In the kitchen, Su Xiangran, who was looking for plates for Erya, had no idea about this. Although she knew that Nanny Yu was not "online" for long, she didn't know when she would go offline!

"Xiao Ran, what are you doing?" Li Niang had already gone out, and when she came back to look for something, she saw her daughter rummaging around there.

Su Xiangran didn't even turn her head and answered directly: "Mom, I'll find a plate."

Erya immediately became worried when she saw Li Niang's expression. She knew Li Niang, who was the manager of the big kitchen. She couldn't help but feel a little scared when looking at her, so her face turned pale.

Having been in this world for many years, she knows very well how much people in this era value boys over girls.

Erya has four siblings in her family. She has an older brother, an older sister, and a younger brother.

Because she was the second daughter, she was named Erya. Her elder sister was sold a year earlier than her! It was said that she was sold to a very far place.

Moreover, most people in their village don’t like girls, so when Erya heard Su Xiangran calling her “Mom”, her heart tightened. She didn’t want this girl to be punished by the steward for helping her.

Who knows

"How can you know what kind of plates are there?" Li Niang walked over and rubbed Su Xiangran's head with a smile, "I have taught you before, what kind of plates should be used for what kind of things, and what kind of plates should be used for what occasions.

So what should you understand before you look for a plate? "

"Oh! I know." Because Su Xiangran was born with a congenital anomaly, she was more or less influenced by the rules of this world, and her behavior was more like that of a ten-year-old girl.

Su Xiangran said while counting on her fingers: "First, it is used to hold daily snacks, then it is sent to the young lady's room, and most importantly, it is used to hold the jujube paste cakes, so a blue-and-white glazed auspicious cloud plate will be enough."

"Well! That's right." Li Niang nodded approvingly, "But you forgot that the young master brought his friends home today, so the set of plates was taken away."

Su Xiangran remembered this after her mother said that, and quickly said, "Then I'll change to a pink and white glazed pumpkin plate!"

Li Niang nodded with satisfaction.

Su Xiangran packed the date paste pastry and handed it to Erya: "Here! Hold it carefully this time and don't drop it again!"

"Thank you, sister!" Erya looked at the mother and daughter with some envy. This is the way relatives should get along with each other. It seems that not everyone in this world is like her parents!

As Erya walked out, she could still hear the other person talking. Although she couldn't hear it very clearly, she could roughly guess that it was the steward who was saying that her daughter was meddling in other people's business, but her daughter was speaking softly and coquettishly.

Shaking her head, Erya sighed and said, "Same person, different fate!"

She was originally an ordinary high school student in the future world. Due to a car accident, she came to this era and became a country girl named "Erya".

Less than a few years after arriving here, she saw with her own eyes her sister being sold, and her parents used the money from selling their daughter to buy meat for her brothers.

From that day on, she knew that her life would be difficult.

Sure enough, after her sister was sold, her job was given to her. After being "tortured" for several years, Erya herself was also sold.

Fortunately, this time her parents asked someone from a regular dental clinic to take her away, otherwise she might have been sold to an unknown place like her sister.

When I left home, my mother was pregnant again. I didn’t know whether it was a boy or a girl this time. I guess if it was a girl, she would still be sold!

Erya, who has received modern education, actually does not understand the logic of this couple. They are already so poor that they have to sell their daughter, so why do they want to have a child?

If it is for the purpose of continuing the family line, they already have two sons, isn't that enough?

You have to know that they are tenant farmers, and the land they own is rented. Even if they have more sons, they cannot afford to support them, and they have nothing to pass on.

At the most critical moment, the cost of my son’s marriage will be a huge expense.

When she first came, she would ask her sister these questions, but after her sister shut her up several times, she didn't dare to say it anymore.

"Er Ya, I know you feel uncomfortable." Her sister advised her, "But this is how the world is. Don't say these things anymore. If your parents hear them, you will be punished again."

At first she refused to listen, but after being hungry for a few days, she became much more obedient.

"You are just full and have so many random thoughts." Erya's mother put away the bowl of rice. "I will punish you by not having food for two days, and then you will behave yourself! You are a girl, how can you have so many thoughts?"

During those two days, she survived only on water and the little bit of coarse bread that her sister secretly saved.

Later, Erya understood that her sister had said these things to her before, not because she had really accepted her fate, but because she had to learn to obey if she wanted to survive.

Don’t say you will do this and that when you grow up, because if you don’t learn to be patient, there is a high possibility that you will never grow up.

Thinking of this, Erya couldn't help but feel a little envious of the steward's daughter. Just by looking at the handkerchief she had just taken out, she knew that she was a favored one.

While thinking, Erya stepped into Miss Su Shangru's yard.
