Chapter 329 Willing to be the Junior
Wang Laozhu was truly taken in by the mother-daughter duo of Old Granny Zhang, believing their act, "Nonsense, our family has just started to live well these past few days, and now you want to buy servants? Even if we have money, this is not the way to squander it. Send the trafficker away at once. We country folk just need to live honestly. Look around, who needs servants? Don’t make us a laughing stock."
"Head of the household," retorted Old Granny Zhang, "listen to you, this is Laosan showing his filial piety, buying someone to serve us. It’s just like using an object, isn’t it? And what’s wrong with being country folk? Don’t we deserve to have servants too? Since we’ve already made the purchase, let’s use her for a few days first. Let her do all the dirty and tiring chores around our home, and after that, it’s not too late to send her back!" Old Granny Zhang had other plans in mind.
Wang Yonggui listened uncomfortably to his parents arguing about how to use the servant, thinking he should explain something, but firstly, he found no opportunity to speak up, and secondly, as he glanced at Lady Jiang’s frail appearance, surrounded by her three children, he suddenly felt it difficult to utter a word.
At this moment, a gentle cough came from within the carriage curtain.
Following that, a woman’s delicate hand stretched out, her skin fair and clearly unused to labor, her fingernails were dyed red, making the hand look even softer and more attractive.
Upon seeing this pair of hands...
The Wang Family Courtyard fell into an absolute silence.
Even the least insightful among them knew this was no servant’s hands.
What kind of servant has such tender, fair hands with long fingernails that are dyed bright red?
