Transmigrated as A Farm Girl Making Her Family Rich-Chapter 255 - 244 Before Attending the Banquet
Chapter 255: Chapter 244 Before Attending the Banquet
The maids looking after the Lady, though sold to the farmer family as bonded maids, knew nothing when they were originally bought.
It was Young Master Tang, the housekeeper, who was more enthusiastic. He had a maid from the Tang Mansion come over to train the newly bought little maids!
Even some long-term workers, those working at the Ye family, had professionals come in to train them, for instance, chefs and their apprentices were all trained by professionals!
The little maid seemed to have an internal biological clock; even if there was an hourglass in the room, she would wake up at the crow of a rooster in the countryside!
That crowing was not merely loud as it was followed by the barking of dogs. Though the Ye family didn’t raise chickens in their new house, the neighboring old house kept both chickens and dogs.
The little maid got up quietly, tidied up her clothes, and gently opened the door to return to her own room to freshen up, waiting for the two young ladies to wake up so she could help them wash their faces!
Although there were maids in the house, they were only assigned to take care of the two youngest young ladies, and even the youngest young Master had no maid or wet nurse!
Mrs. Li didn’t entrust her youngest son to anyone else’s care. Two years ago, so many children could squeeze into one room, and now the only addition to the room was a baby.
During the night, the couple was affectionate, of course, circumspect since the baby was already several months old. Mengmeng’s expressive eyes seemed to sense some sounds!
Mrs. Li had not yet weaned her youngest son, believing her original milk was the healthiest despite having sheep at home.
The youngest daughter lost her milk at just a month old, a feeling of guilt buried deep within her heart. She planned to let her son breastfeed until he was one or two years old.
It was because the family’s circumstances had improved that the young son only ate a little solid food, receiving four or five substantial feedings of milk a day!
Today, as the family prepared to go offer birthday congratulations, she also felt uneasy about leaving her son at home under the care of the workers and had to bring along the two little maids, worried about what to do if her son needed to nurse during the crowded event.
There was no choice, she would have to find a secluded place to nurse him when the time came!
Today, Ye Shiqi wore the fabric that Tang Shunyan had sent her, which her mother had taken to the tailor to have autumn outfits made for her and her four sisters!
The five sisters wore the same color fabric, varying in size, and the styles differed too; the older sisters wore more mature and steady designs, while the younger ones had more elegant garments.
In the same color fabric, the sisters looked as identical as quintuplets, even their shoes matched, all wearing the same colored embroidered shoes.
Aside from different hair combs and accessories, their style was simple yet lively, their fair skin complemented by pink dresses.
They looked like princesses descended from heaven.
Such thoughts merely flashed through people’s minds and no one would dare utter a word likening them to princesses!
Perhaps they would say they looked as beautiful as fairies. In people’s minds, a fairy not only had a beautiful appearance but also flawless skin.
Mrs. Lai took out her finest dress to wear, adorning herself with all the assets she had accumulated over the years!
Hongji’s father wore his seldom-worn long gown and mandarin jacket. Normally, for convenience and although he had become a rich man, he opted for comfort wearing short sleeves and knee-length shorts.
Hongji dressed just as conspicuously as his father today, his long gown and mandarin jacket made him look like a teacher, not the rich upstart people talked about!
Mrs. Li wore her finest clothes which were specially made for convenience in nursing her child without looking too unsightly!
Her fair and tender skin added to her voluptuous figure made her a very charming woman. If someone uninformed saw her now, they would think she was the young madam of a large family.
Today, bearing gifts and with so many people riding together, the family’s two ox carts were both utilized!
The father and son sat in the cart carrying jars and pots, driven by the long-term workers!
The other ox cart carried Mrs. Li holding her youngest son and her daughters, each sitting on small stools, with two little maids seated on the side as well.
Mrs. Lai sat in the best spot, her ample behind on a small stool, shifting uncomfortably as the ox cart moved!
Initially, she planned to ride with her husband in one ox cart but, seeing the pots on that cart, reluctantly squeezed with her daughter-in-law and the multitude into another cart.
