Chapter 70:

"Zhou Guan, today's account book." The servant handed the account book to Qiuniang.
Qiuniang sits on the warm Kang, with a small table on the Kang, she sits cross-legged on her head, her knees are covered with a quilt, and she has a cup of hot tea in her hand. Now she is also a small job, taking care of a district. people.
Yun Niu came in from outside the house. It was snowing outside. She shook off the snowflakes on her clothes at the door, and touched her head twice before walking in. She still carried a small frame of carbon in her hand, and said with a foolish smile: "This year's The carbon is better than last year! There is not much smoke when it burns! It is almost the same as silver carbon!"
Qiuniang greeted her quickly: "Come here and sit down. The kang is burning and warm."
"There are so many things today?" Yun Niu stood not far from the door, rubbing her hands, and said, "I'm cold, and wait for me to go over."
Qiuniang walked down from the Kang, poured a cup of hot tea for Yun Niu, handed it over, Yun Niu held it with both hands.
Yun Niu smiled at Qiuniang: "It's so warm."
Qiuniang asked her: "Do you live a lot today?"
Although Yun Niu was originally Qiuniang’s personal girl, it was the one with the thickest hands and feet among the four close girls. Originally it was just the material of the rough girl, but Qiuniang was young and had a kind heart. When she was bullied in the room, she was promoted to be her own personal maid.
Yun Niu was clumsy and did a lot of things, and it was Qiuniang trying to protect her.
Being bullied by other maids and hungry, it was Qiuniang who distracted others and told her to eat her own food.
Qiuniang is very smart. She knows that if the maids know that they are good to Yun Niu, they will only bully her even harder. Yun Niu is stupid, and if she doesn't know the complaint, Qiuniang can only think more of her.
After all, Qiu Nian is a young lady, not a young master. If it is a young master, Yun Niu can still be taken into the house.
She couldn't always look at Yun Niu.
Later, those maids probably discovered that Yun Niu was indeed a fool, and stopped bullying her, so Yun Niu's life was easier.
But Yun Niu herself didn't think so. What she said most often at that time was: "I am living a good life now!"
"Miss! Yun Niu ate meat today!"
When she was at home, Qiuniang protected Yun Niu.
Something happened, Yun Niu protected Qiuniang.
The two masters and servants just walked over with their arms all the way, and they survived with all hands and feet.
Because Yun Niu had clumsy hands and feet, she was returned after working in the needle and thread bureau for a few days.
Then she went to the nursery to take care of the children-she was not good at dealing with children, was not careful, and was returned.
The current Yun Niu worked in the back kitchen, cutting vegetables, but she was able to continue her work without being returned.
"I don't have much work today." Yun Niu drank a sip of hot tea and smiled at Qiuniang, "I was also praised! The chef said that I have the best hands and feet! I did a better job than the new one."
Yun Niu was so happy, she almost jumped up and down.
Qiuniang was also very happy for Yun Niu, and Chong Yun Niu waved her hand and said, "Come here, I will teach you how to read."
Yun Niu slumped in an instant, she said half coquettishly and half weakly: "Miss, I can't learn it."
She always felt that the characters were strange. In her eyes, the characters were strange and distorted paintings. She couldn't match the number at all. It was too difficult, and only a clever person like Miss could learn it.
Qiuniang persuaded: "When you are literate, you can go to the exam, maybe you can find a transcription job, which is easier than in the big kitchen."
Yun Niu whispered: "It's better to relax in the big kitchen."
Qiuniang looked at her.
Yun Niu lowered her head and said, "I'm learning, can't I learn?"
"This is Sun, your last name." Qiuniang taught Yun Niu to write her name.
Yun Niu looked at Sun Zi: "It looks so strange."
Qiuniang sighed, "I will write it to you again."
Yun Niu couldn't learn the word until Qiuniang had to start reading the account book.
Qiuniang was helpless and could only continue to settle the accounts. Yunniu was sitting next to organize their things. They will have to move tomorrow. Originally, this house was built temporarily. The area under the management of Qiuniang is a new area, composed of refugees, and the expenses of the refugees It's huge-they don't have their own belongings, furniture or daily necessities. They are alone, and everything must be solved by Qiuniang.
After reading the ledger and confirming that there was no problem with any expenses, Qiuniang went to fetch water and wash her face and feet.
Yun Niu has heated up the water, and seeing Qiuniang go down the kang, she hurried over to pour the water.
Qiuniang couldn't compete with her, and said anxiously: "You are no longer my maid, I can fetch water by myself, don't serve me!"
Yun Niu didn't agree with her. She opened her round eyes and said seriously: "Why am I not Miss's maid?"
Just as Qiuniang was about to speak, Yun Niu had already poured the water into the copper basin and tried it out: "It's just right! It's not hot anymore."
"Miss." Yun Niu watched Qiuniang wash her face, and said sullenly, "Don't say anything like that anymore. The servant girl is uncomfortable listening."
Qiuniang glared at her, and Yun Niu quickly changed her words: "I sound uncomfortable."
"Miss is Miss."
"I have to serve Miss forever!"
When she was at Zhou's house, the happiest day was when the mother above told her to serve the young lady.
How happy she was then! That's Miss!
Yun Niu felt that it was a pie in the sky. She went home and told her parents that they praised her for her success. She used to do a lot of work at home, even if she was a maid at Zhou's house, she still had to do it when she returned home. To live, she wants to go to the ground, take her brother and sister, and give all her monthly money to the family.
As a little girl, you have to take part of the monthly money to honor your mothers, otherwise the girl below will bully her.
But Yun Niu couldn't honor them, so she did the hardest work in Zhou's family, and the dirty and smelly ones belonged to her.
Later, when she went to the lady's house, the mothers stopped bullying her and would tell her nice things. Although she didn't understand them, they must be nice things! The mothers are all laughing at her!
The rough girls who had bullied her before gave her gifts and begged her to mention them before the lady.
When she got home, her parents didn't urge her to work with her younger siblings.
Although Yun Niu was stupid, she was not stupid. She knew that the young lady brought her all this.
So she is grateful and feels that Miss is the best and most right person in the world.
The way of the world began to change. Miss something happened, Yun Niu carried her on her back, wading through mountains and rivers to escape. She was stronger than other girls. She had been doing rough work since childhood, so that her feet had a layer of calluses. Yun Niu had never been so grateful to God, if she If she is thinner, she may not be able to protect her.
They couldn't find anything to eat, and there were men who always looked at the young lady with lewd
evil eyes. Yun Niu knew such a person, she was from the bottom, and she knew what men thought.
So she said to the man, "Do you have anything to eat?"
The man licked his lower lip, touched his crotch, and said to her: "You want as much as you want."
Yun Niu told him: "You give me food and I will sleep with you."
That night, Yun Niu lost herself in the woods for the first time. She heard the cry of a lady not far away and felt the pain in her body. She told herself not to cry. She had to find something to eat. She wanted to satisfy the man. , So he will look for her next time.
Yun Niu got a hare and a handful of dandelions.
They survived.
Once, a man kicked her away after he had done something with her.
He was walking towards her and the young lady's shed, and he said, "I haven't tasted the big lady, I don't know how it is different from you."
Yun Niu was crazy. She got up from the ground and hugged the man by the waist. She begged him: "You don't touch her! You me, I'm not afraid of pain, you can hit me, don't touch her!"
The man kicked her again: "I'm so tired of you, you bitch, how can you compare to a delicate young lady."
Yun Niu rushed over again. She hugged the man’s leg and stretched her neck to bite the man’s flesh. She bit her mouth full of blood. She didn’t know whether she was her own or a man. The man’s pain was another kick. This time Annoyed the man, he punched her on the head, and Yun Niu thought he was going to die.
It hurts so much that she can't hear anything and her eyes are blurred.
Seeing the man walk into the shed, Yun Niu didn't know where she got her strength. She stood up swayingly, picked up a stone from the edge of the grass, and walked into the shed.
The man had already succeeded. He pressed the young lady's body, Yun Niu could see his muddy bottom.
She lifted the stone and smashed it down fiercely, again and again, until it became bloody.
"Miss." She said to Qiuniang with her last strength, "Don't be afraid, Yun Niu will protect you."
Then she fell down, remembering nothing.
"The days are so good now." Yun Niu spread the quilt and lay on the kang with Qiuniang. She whispered, "Miss, when we move the house, let's go and bring a child back."
Qiuniang injured her body and could no longer bear children.
Yun Niu had lost a few children herself and couldn't give birth.
They had talked about it before, and they all decided not to get married or to find a man, so it would be nice to live a lifetime.
Qiuniang nodded: "Bring a girl back."
Yun Niu smiled and said, "I will make her clothes."
Qiuniang: "Your needlework is terrible!"
Yun Niu was not convinced: "I'm going to learn, Aunt Zhao said she taught me."
Qiuniang snickered: "Aunt Zhao laughed at you last time."
"She didn't laugh at me." Yun Niu pouted, "Aunt Zhao said that I can sit still and I will definitely learn well in the future."
Qiuniang yawned and turned over and said, "Then you go and learn, and you will make me a suit later." She will not dislike Yun Niu's craftsmanship.
Yun Niu was happy: "I will make you the best looking body!"
The two of them talked about what to buy after the child was picked up, when to send the child to school, and discussing how old the child was. They talked and talked, and they were not sleepy, and they talked until late at night.
"After going to bed, I won't get up tomorrow morning without going to bed." Qiuniang patted Yun Niu on the back.
Yun Niu nodded, pulled the quilt, and covered it more tightly, and the two fell asleep together.
It was snowing outside, and the wind was bitter.
The kang is burning in the house, and the four seasons are like spring.
