"Daidi, where have you been? What's wrong? You're still thinking about your father who works for a rich family! If you are really capable, take you back home. My Fan family can't afford an unlucky woman like you. Bah, a hen that can't lay eggs." An old woman with inverted triangle eyes and a mean face came over cursing. Seeing that there were still a lot of unwashed clothes left in Daidi's washing basin, the dissatisfaction on her face was obvious.

Oh, no wonder Shen Wenjiao didn't recognize her. She was still a young girl when she was kicked out of the Shen family with her brother. Now it seems that she has been married for many years and has been worn out.

"Mom, I'm almost done. Don't hit me, don't hit me, I still have to go to work tomorrow~"

"Bah, I think you are a cheap bastard who likes to be lazy if you don't have a beating. Remember, you are not allowed to hide the wages, otherwise I will beat you to death~" The old woman was concerned that the brother wanted to work as a maid, so she changed the merciless beating to pinching him several times, and finally gave him a warning.

In the past few months, the wages have been less each time. This bitch said nicely that she paid tribute to the manager in order to get more good work and earn more in the future. But it has been several months and I haven't seen any return money. The old woman guessed viciously in her heart that it is very likely that this bitch wanted to hide it.

"Mom, mom. I didn't do it. I wouldn't dare to do it~" The younger brother had become accustomed to being beaten and scolded by the old woman over the years. He didn't dare to even make a single move of resistance. He was strangled and trembling all over, but he didn't move at all.

A scoundrel-looking man in a baggy cotton jacket walked into the small courtyard with a happy look on his face, but when he saw the scene of beating and scolding, he frowned.

"What are you doing! Mom, what did Daidi do to make you angry? If it really doesn't work, just starve her for a few meals. Why bother beating her?" The man was worried that if Daidi was beaten, the family would have to pay for her medical treatment, and it would also affect her ability to go to work to earn money.

Dai Di originally saw a little hope in the man's eyes, but after hearing these words, her hope dimmed instantly. Why is her life so miserable! She married such an irresponsible man and had a wicked mother-in-law at home.

"Son, you're back. Go, don't you see your husband is back after a hard day's work? Why don't you go and cook? I warn you, don't steal food for me. The food in the house is limited."

When the old woman saw her son coming back, she knew that she had a clue to what she was talking about. How could she have time to take care of this daughter-in-law who disliked her? She quickly sent her son to cook.

Dai Di nodded quickly, and ran to cook without saying a word. She got married when she was fifteen or sixteen years old, and she had given birth to children during that time. At first, she gave birth to two girls, and they were naturally sold by her husband's family who favored boys over girls.

Actually, it sounds good to say that she was sold. Who would not sell a boy if they have money? Who would want a girl who has just been born and has not been raised? In all likelihood, she was drowned by her mother-in-law. Dai Di knew this very well, but she didn't care.

After several failed pregnancies, the old woman naturally scolded Daidi for not being lucky enough to give birth to a boy. If the family conditions were not so bad, and Daidi was needed to work to increase the family income, he might really be sold by this family.

To be honest, it wasn't that the Gu family didn't take a good look at Dai Di in the beginning. This man from the Fan family was pretty good at the beginning, and like Gu Qingfeng, he worked as a servant for a middle-class family. The good thing was that he was still a free man, and was considered an employee.

Who knew that the world was not peaceful now, and the men of the Fan family followed their master's family and came to Shanghai to seek refuge. Well, the Songhu War had caused the master's family to lose a lot of money, so naturally they could not afford too many servants. People like the men of the Fan family who did not have a contract to sell their bodies were naturally the first to be abandoned.

The old woman looked at Daidi who had obediently gone to the kitchen, and asked in a low voice, "Son, how did the discussion go? Although Daidi is no longer a virgin, she is only in her 20s, still young!"

"Tsk~ Mom, I don't even like my brother, how much can I sell him for? There's someone else working for him at home, why are you in such a hurry to sell him? I've found a new job that can make money, you just stay at home and wait for your son's filial piety."

The man was not reluctant to part with Dai Di. After giving birth to many children and working hard, Dai Di, who was in her 20s, looked almost and had no feminine charm. What was there for him to care about? He just thought the selling price was too low and it was not worth it. If he kept Dai Di at home, there would be someone to help with the housework. Besides, Dai Di could earn a lot of money every month by working as a maid and doing laundry.

"My son is capable and he will listen to you. He will stay with me for now. When you find a new wife and have a son, he can help take care of the family." The old woman agreed with a smile. Having a son gives her confidence. Look, she can now enjoy the blessing of her son.

"By the way, Mom. I need some capital for this. Please give me the money at home first." The man seemed to have thought of something. He sniffed and stretched out his hand to ask his mother for money as if it was a matter of course.

The old woman didn't doubt it at all after hearing this. She just looked towards the kitchen warily, then quickly went back to her room and rummaged through the drawers for a while.

"Son, this is our family's last savings, you have to be careful with it." In fact, the old woman also hid some of the pension money, but this is the last savings, and she will not touch it unless it is absolutely necessary.

"Okay, got it." The man weighed the wallet with a look of disgust, then quickly stuffed it into his arms.

Dai Di, who was busy in the kitchen at this time, had no idea what was happening outside. What she was most concerned about now was when the master of the Shen family could come to Shanghai.

If Mr. Shen came, the little western-style house of the eldest lady would belong to the Shen family, and she would be able to work there. Considering her merit in tipping off the enemy, Mr. Shen might give her more money as a reward!

Haha, I wonder if the young lady can still live as comfortably as she does now. It would be great if Mr. Shen could marry the young lady off casually. She wants to see how the young lady can live.

Dai Di didn't know why she was like this. To think carefully, the time she was with Shen Wenjiao was the best time of her life.

The eldest lady was very good to her at the beginning. She always remembered to share some of the good food with her and even thought about teaching her to read. Usually, she just cleaned the house and washed the eldest lady's clothes. It was really an easy job.

When did she change? It's been so long that I can't remember it sometimes. Maybe it was when she first stole something from a young lady out of greed, or when she watched a girl who looked like a young lady being abducted out of jealousy.

Or maybe when she was obsessed with stealing the property of the master's family. Who knows! Anyway, she and her brother are now fed up with the eldest lady's comfortable and smooth life.
