Xiao Ling burst into tears.

She also said she wanted to go with the madam, but the madam didn't take her with her now. Was she going to leave her behind?

Shen Qingci reached out and stroked Xiao Ling's hair.

"You are still young, so that place in the capital may not be suitable for you."

"But……"

Xiao Ling actually wanted to say that she is a child now and will grow up in the future.

But Shen Qingci didn't seem to want to hear anything. He just held the fat fox in his arms and entered the house, leaving behind a eager little spirit.

Bai Mei, who was standing aside, couldn't bear it anymore.

"Stupid girl," she poked Xiao Ling's forehead directly, "How can you rush to be a servant to others? What's so good about being a servant?" It's like her, who has been a servant all her life. Although Madam has never regarded her as a servant, she is now the most powerful lady among Madam. Not to mention the palace, even the large and small palaces in the capital treat her with some respect.

But servants are servants. The day they sold themselves into slavery, this status was already determined for them. Even if they no longer have a bond of sale, they are still innocent people. However, if they are slaves on this day, they will be slaves for the rest of their lives. Such an identity cannot be erased.

"But……"

Xiao Ling pursed her lips, "If I don't follow Madam, who should I follow?"

Does she want to go back to the village?

If she goes back, if others know that she was kicked out by Madam, she will be embarrassed, and her family and grandma will be hurt.

"Stupid."

Bai Mei poked her again.

He is really too young and careless. He is not very smart in normal times. How can he be so stupid now? Really, this temperament is really not suitable for staying in that place in the capital.

Their house is a piece of pure land, but it is impossible not to leave the house and do other things for the rest of their lives.

"Madam brought you here to stay in this shop. From now on, let the shopkeeper take care of you."

Xiao Ling's eyes lit up immediately.

"Aunt Bai, you mean..."

Is this going to make her the lady in charge in the future, just like Baimei and Daxiang?

"As long as you know."

Bai Mei made a sound, "I can only understand it, but I can't explain it in words. It's so good here. Not only can you make money, but you don't have to leave your parents. When you grow up, you can find a good family to marry."

In that part of the capital, men can make a career for themselves, but as a woman, what do you want to do with so much ambition? If you learn some skills well and earn yourself a good dowry, you can be a good person in your husband's family and no one dares to bully you. This is the best fate for a woman in her life.

Just like their wives.

Living like this is wanton and happy.

Xiao Ling nodded quickly. Actually, she really couldn't live without her parents and grandma. But now that she is staying here, she likes it here more than going to the capital.
