Being a Lady of an Influential Family

Leng Sa walked into Mrs. Fu's courtyard, only Mrs. Fu and Zheng Ying were sitting in the quiet flower hall, and Fu Yucheng, who had just married Yan Er, was also missing. Zheng Ying sat respectfully at the lower head of Mrs. Fu, with her back straight, except for her buttocks, there was absolutely no place to lean against the back of the chair or the armrest behind her. Although it is polite to sit upright in front of the elders, as a pregnant woman, looking at this cold posture makes her feel uncomfortable.

Zheng Ying lowered her eyes slightly, with a submissive and graceful expression. Leng Sa came a step late and didn't know what the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had just said, but she could tell at a glance that Zheng Ying was not in a good mood at the moment.

"Mother."

Madam Fu put down the teacup in her hand and nodded towards Leng Sa, and said calmly, "Sit down."

Leng Sa walked over to Zheng Ying and sat down, "Is there anything else you want to say, mother?"

Madam Fu was startled slightly by the coldness, but her expression remained the same. Some casually said: "It's not a big deal. I never cared about the things in the courtyard of Yingcheng and Pingcheng. But you two just married into the Fu family. The eldest and fourth are my own. It’s different after all, I have to say a few more words. You young people, don’t think I’m an old woman nagging.”

Zheng Ying quickly said, "Mother, where did you go? It's an honor for me and my sister-in-law that you can guide us."

Leng Sa showed a standard professional smile.

Madam Fu glanced at the two of them, her expression softened a lot.

"A Ying is going to give birth in a few months, and the fourth son's overseer also told me that he will not be able to go to school for two years, and go to the army for two years of experience first. After that, he will continue We don’t care about studying, learning or other things.” That being said, in fact, both of you present here know that Madam Fu can’t really care about what Fu Yucheng will do in the future. In fact, in Madam Fu's eyes, Fu Yucheng had only one way to go, otherwise he wouldn't be allowed to drop out of school at this time.

"Aying, you can take good care of your baby at home and take care of your fourth child. When I get older, I need someone to help with these things at home. While I am still energetic now, I can also teach you. When I have grandchildren in the future Son, I can embrace my grandson and enjoy myself.”

Zheng Ying lowered her head shyly, "We all listen to mother." Her suspension of school had already been booked, but Mrs. Fu's words made Zheng Ying's originally uncomfortable heart feel better. If she can become the mother-in-law's right-hand man, it is naturally more important than studying in school for many years and two years.

Both the Fu family and the Zheng family are not waiting for her to go out to work and earn money by relying on her education.

Madam Fu looked at Leng Sa, "Where's Ming Yue?"

Leng Sa smiled, "Mother, forgive me, you also know that I am not used to handling those trivial matters. I will continue to study according to the previous discussion. When I graduate in the future, I will just find a job and stay idle."

Zheng Ying looked at Leng Sa in surprise, apparently not believing that Leng Sa was not interested in the power of the Fu family. You must know that although it is difficult for Mrs. Fu to intervene in government affairs and military affairs, Governor Fu seldom manages family affairs. The power in Mrs. Fu's hands must not be underestimated.

The inner house affects the previous dynasty, and women affect men. This is a rule that has been in force since ancient times.

And Leng Sa's performance during this time, it is also difficult for Zheng Ying to believe that she is a foolish and sweet person who has no intentions.

Madam Fu looked at Leng Sa and frowned, obviously not satisfied with the answer.

There was a moment of silence in the hall before Madam Fu said in a deep voice: "Fengcheng has inconvenient legs and doesn't like servants to take care of him. Who will take care of him when you're away all day?"

Leng Sa was a little puzzled, "Mother, Fu...cough, Fengcheng's legs and feet are just inconvenient, he is not a disabled person, he can take care of himself, and he has never asked anyone to take care of him every step of the way."

"Isn't it your responsibility as a wife to take care of your husband?" Mrs. Fu said.

"..." Don't you know how tough your son is?

"Mother, this matter...I thought I had discussed it before and reached a conclusion."

"So, no matter what I say, you won't change your mind?" Mrs. Fu asked.

Leng Sa nodded, "Yes."

Mrs. Fu sneered and said: "It stands to reason that you are the eldest daughter-in-law of the Fu family. After you get married, I should slowly hand over the family affairs to you. Since you insist on refusing, then that's all. I The two sons under my knees are married to daughters-in-law. It makes no sense that I, a mother, have to work hard to manage these trivial matters at home. After Ah Ying has given birth, these things will be handed over to her. Don't tell me when the time comes. I'm biased."

While speaking, Mrs. Fu stared at Leng Sa steadfastly, as if she was sure that she would see a look of remorse and unwillingness on her face.

It's a pity that Leng Sa's performance was not as she expected, she just curled her lips slightly, "Mother is serious, why would I miss you so much? You will definitely be the most just mother in the world."

"..." The last is just forget it, and I added a last. Although Mrs. Fu didn't feel that she had done anything wrong, she still knew what she was partial to, so she had to suspect that Leng Sa's words were mocking her.

The atmosphere in the hall was a bit condensed, Zheng Ying sat on the side and looked at Leng Sa with complicated eyes.

It stands to reason that Leng Sa and Mrs. Fu are the beneficiaries of fighting against her, but looking at Leng Sa's appearance, she knows that Leng Sa really doesn't care. She had suffered all kinds of grievances and wanted to fight for it, but her opponent didn't care about it. Zheng Ying felt deeply disappointed.

"Forget it, since I can't control you anymore, you can go back." Mrs. Fu unceremoniously issued the order to evict the guest.

Without any surprise or fear, Leng Sa stood up, "Then mother, I'll go first, brother and sister, see you later?"

"Sister-in-law, go slowly." Zheng Ying said hastily.

Leng Sa walked out of the hall slowly, and the sound of porcelain falling to the ground soon came from behind.

Tsk, today is a day when mother-in-law is in a bad mood.

Back in the yard, Fu Fengcheng was not there, and two strange girls greeted her.

Leng Sa looked curiously at the two girls in front of her. The two girls seemed to be a little older than her, and they were both handsome, but their temperament was not like an ordinary girl.

Leng Sa was different from Zheng Ying who married in with several girls, there was no one around her.

Even in Leng's house, Jin Lan is her girl in name, but in fact she is more like a housekeeper who is convenient to dispatch. Even when Leng Sa is at home, she will not always be by her side.

But in a place like the Fu's house, not to mention such a big yard, if there is really no one around, even a little thing every day can make her lose her legs.

Leng Sa doesn't like the job of being a personal girl. Apart from vague reasons such as the so-called human rights and freedom, the most important thing is that she doesn't like being around people, but it doesn't mean that she doesn't like convenience and has to do everything by herself.

Therefore, she was touched by Fu Fengcheng's thoughtfulness for half a minute.

The two girls stood in front of her with their backs straight, their expressions were respectful but not humble, and even faintly curious.

Taller girls have a calm demeanor and bright eyes with determination, while shorter girls with round faces are much cuter.

"You... aren't the servants of the Fu family, are you?" Leng Sa raised her eyebrows and asked.

The round-faced girl blinked, "Mrs. Hui, we are."

"I don't think so." After all, being a servant is still a job of serving people, no matter what era it is. The only difference is that the treatment and personal safety and freedom are more guaranteed, and there is no need for the older generation to be servants, and the younger generation can only be servants with more choices.

But even so, there are not a few who are still willing to choose their sons to inherit their father's business as servants in big families.

The temperament and conversation of these two girls are obviously different from those of Fu's servants, but more like those female students in Leng Sa's school.

The round-faced girl said with a smile, "Young Madam, we are really servants of the Fu family. We have signed a contract with you. My name is Xu Lanjing and I am twenty years old. It is good for the young lady to call me Lan Jing. I graduated from Beijing Medical University."

The tall girl followed suit, "I am Yuan Ying, 21 years old. I graduated from the Department of Foreign Languages ​​of the National University. I am proficient in three languages ​​and four Anxia local dialects. I can also fight and martial arts."

Leng Sa was speechless, "Talents like you... come to Fu's family to work as servants? Why?" Don't you think it's overkill?

"Because Young Master Fu's salary is high." The two replied in unison.

After graduating from university, one needs to find a job. Even if they are all college students, it is not easy for girls to find a job with satisfactory salary and benefits these days.

In this world, there are not so many bosses who are more generous than Mr. Fu and who don't make unreasonable demands.

Leng Sa was stunned and couldn't help laughing. Master Leng, who had solved the employment problem in his youth, couldn't understand the distress of finding a job for fresh graduates. However, every time it was graduation season, I heard Lanhu pull out a bunch of news about the most difficult graduation season on the Internet, and I knew that it was probably really not easy.

"Don't you feel wronged?" Leng Sa asked. College students are quite rare these days, and their arrogance is naturally a bit more than that of Leng Sa's previous life.

Xu Lanjing's round face was full of smiles, "No, my family doesn't allow me to be a doctor. I ran away from home to apply for a medical university. Now I have run out of money but I want to continue my studies. I'm still young. I just want to help the university. I can earn enough money to study abroad after working less for three years, so I will treat myself as a private doctor and do part-time odd jobs." Moreover, Young Master Fu also provides graduation assignments.

Yuan Ying nodded in agreement, "My father owes a lot of money. Compared to being sold to pay off the debt, working for Young Master Fu is an easy job. As long as I work for five years, I can pay off the money that Young Master Fu paid for me. , no one dared to trouble me when I was a servant of the Fu family. If I went to find a job by myself, it would take at least 20 years to pay off all the debts. Some money."

She wasn't worried that Young Master Fu had any other plans for her, after all... In terms of appearance, even though she was a woman, she had to admit that she was not as good-looking as Young Master Fu.

If you really have any ideas, it's hard to say who will suffer.

Leng Sa nodded to show she understood, "Well, it's fine if you don't feel wronged."

The two girls looked at each other, and Xu Lanjing said pleasantly, "Young Madam, are you willing to want us?"

Leng Sa smiled, "How dare I refuse such an outstanding talent."

Leng Sa knew in her heart that it was impossible for Fu Fengcheng to find such two girls for no reason, just to serve as servants. These two girls can be regarded as excellent talents no matter where they are placed, and their presence in front of her must be enough to reassure Fu Fengcheng.

This also shows that Fu Fengcheng obviously does not trust the servants of the Fu family, and there may be some other reasons.

Fu Fengcheng and the Fu family are really getting more and more interesting.

The flood season in the south this year is quite serious. When I read the news, I suddenly remembered the feeling of squatting on the sofa alone in fear but powerless during the heavy rain in Sichuan two years ago. Friends in the south should pay attention to safety. I hope it passes soon and everyone is safe and sound.
