After being reborn in the Mass Grave, she overturned her predecessor's power

"Do you want to go back to the Jiang family?"

"think."

Shen Zhaoyan showed a satisfied look and threw a note to her in a noble and cool manner.

Jiang Xuening took a look and saw that it was the one she took out of the exquisite dice that day.

There is only one sentence on it - "The ledger and list are at Zhou's house."

Shen Zhaoyan knocked on the table, "You go into Zhou's house and help me get the account book and list, and I will take you back to Jiang's house."

Hey, is this because I can't decide whether to ask her for help?

Jiang Xuening trembled instantly and raised her chin, "You owe me once, ask me to pay for it later."

Shen Zhaoyan narrowed his eyes and said, "We'll talk about it after you get the things."

The legitimate daughter of the Lu family married into the Zhou family, and the account book should have been sent in with the dowry. They arrived a step too late, and only found the body of the Lu family's daughter in the mass grave.

A year ago, people in Tongzhou were in dire straits because of a severe drought, and corpses were everywhere. The emperor allocated 50 taels of silver for disaster relief, but it turned out that the disaster money was embezzled by Lu Wen, the prefect of Tongzhou, which involved a lot of forces.

Jiang Xuening asked, "How do I enter the Zhou family?"

Shen Zhaoyan looked her up and down, his eyes resting on the head of her chicken coop, "This is still very easy for you, little beggar."

……

The next day, Jiang Xuening was dressed in tattered clothes, her face was smeared, and her hair was tangled, which matched her skinny appearance.

When the leader of the Beggar Clan comes, he must call him professional. He has completely mastered the essence and is an elite disciple of his Beggar Clan.

Shen Zhaoyan stood far away from her in disgust, "When you fall, remember to do it more seriously, don't be sneaky."

"If you don't speak, no one will think you are mute." Jiang Xuening picked her ears.

Xiao Shi, who went to watch the wind, flew back lightly using Qinggong, "The people are coming, get ready quickly."

Jiang Xuening's eyes flashed, and 180 ways of hugging her thighs flashed through her mind.

Today is the fifteenth day, and it has been a troubled time recently. Mrs. Zhou felt uneasy, so she came to the temple to offer incense and worship the gods, and asked for a fortune.

The maid helped her get into the carriage, which had just taken a few steps.

A little beggar rushed out from the side and fell down in front of the carriage. In just two steps, the horse's hoof stepped on her.

The groom stopped suddenly and the car swayed for a while. Mrs. Zhou was frightened and opened the car curtain.

I saw a strong man chasing her with a whip and cursing, raised his hand and whipped her, "You little bitch, you still dare to run, let's see if I don't beat you to death!"

Jiang Xuening shivered in pain, was it just acting?

In my heart, I scolded the eighteenth generation of Shen Zhaoyan's ancestors for being a dog-like person and being ruthless in doing things.

Seeing that the second whip was about to come off, she rolled forward and crawled forward, "Help, help!"

The strong man chased after him. The pilgrims around him looked over at such a big movement, and the guards of the Zhou family were also alerted and surrounded him.

The strong man grabbed her chicken coop and grinned, "Sorry to disturb my wife. The children at home are disobedient. I will take them back right now."

Jiang Xuening looked at Mrs. Zhou with tears in her eyes and shouted, "That's not true, he lied. I was taken away by him, and he wanted to sell me to a brothel!"

Normally, Mrs. Zhou would never meddle in such nosy matters.

But today this happened outside the temple at the feet of the Buddha. In addition to the lot she drew just now, the eminent monk who interpreted the lot said that she should do more good deeds recently to accumulate virtue.

Mrs. Zhou was moved and said to the guard beside her, "Someone actually forced a good girl into prostitution in broad daylight and arrested her and sent her to the government!"

When the strong man saw that he had kicked the iron plate, he immediately turned around and ran away.

Jiang Xuening kowtowed with tears in her eyes, "Thank you, madam, for saving my life."

Mrs. Zhou looked at her kindly, "Which family are you a child of? I'll have someone take you back."

"Both my parents died of hunger during the severe drought last year, and I have been homeless for a long time." Jiang Xuening was so immersed in the performance that she cried and burped. It was so pitiful.

"You come back with me first." Mrs. Zhou was very kind.

Her outfit was so miserable that even the maids and women in the carriage were unwilling to sit with her.

"Where did this little beggar come from? He's so dirty." A maid said with disgust, "Madam is just too kind-hearted."

Jiang Xuening lowered her head and looked embarrassed, trembling and afraid to speak, as honest as a quail.

Can you be dishonest? The woman next to Mrs. Zhou was looking at her sharply, her eyes as wide as a bull's eye.

She kept her head down at a loss the whole time and was taken into the Zhou Mansion. We made a joke when we got out of the car, and my legs went weak and I almost knelt on the ground.

Aunt Li took her directly to an empty room and looked at her with burning eyes, "Take it off!"

Jiang Xuening was stunned for a moment, then quickly realized and tightened her clothes with shaking hands, and backed away in fear, "I am obedient, please let me go..."

This performance fit her "persecuted girl" persona, and the expression on Granny Li's face softened a little, "Don't be afraid, come here and I will check your injuries."

In the end, she kept her clothes. Aunt Li just opened the clothes for a brief inspection and then looked at her hands and feet carefully.

Grandma Li washed her hands specifically to make sure her body was not contaminated by the strange smell of the little beggar before entering the room to reply.

Mrs. Zhou held a string of Buddhist beads in her hand, "Is there anything unusual?"

Although she brought the person back because of the words of the eminent monk in the temple, the Zhou family was at a sensitive time, and she would not be soft-hearted once she found something was wrong.

"She is skinny and skinny, with old injuries on her body, calluses on her hands from years of work, and blisters on her feet from walking too much. Her accent does have a bit of a rural accent, which basically suits her. The origin of the story doesn’t seem like a pretense.” Grandma Li replied in a clear and coherent manner.

Some things are easy to fake, and some things are difficult. If you meet someone who knows the ropes, you can see through it at a glance.

This is why Shen Zhaoyan left the people around him unused and insisted on using Jiang Xuening to perform this task.

After three years of torture in Qinghe Village, the traces on Jiang Xuening's body cannot lie, perfectly fitting the poor character.

Mrs. Zhou said in a calm tone, "Then leave her here and arrange any job. Don't let her enter the inner courtyard."

Jiang Xuening was led to take a bath and change into the clothes of a maid in the Zhou Mansion. She still looked shabby because she was dark and thin.

Grandma Li asked, "What will you do?"

Jiang Xuening said timidly, "I know how to cook. I have been cooking for my family since I was five years old."

Nanny Li thought for a moment and realized that the people in the kitchen had little chance of entering the inner courtyard, so she sent Jiang Xuening to the kitchen with a wave of her hand.

Jiang Xuening was taken to the kitchen and handed over to the kitchen steward. The steward looked at her with disgust. She was definitely not good at working if she was as skinny as a little chicken.

"What's your name?"

"My name is Xiaoju." Jiang Xuening said thoughtfully, "Thanks to my wife for saving me today."

Even a cat in your wife’s house is more precious. The manager's attitude immediately improved, "Since my wife saved the person, you should stay and work hard."

Jiang Xuening officially started work and became a maid in Zhou's kitchen.
