095 “Zhao’s Daughter [NP]” Chapter 94

Chapter 94 The world is unfair

Looking at Chuntao’s appearance, Zhao Shuyu felt a little miserable. She couldn’t help but sigh in her heart. In this world where men are superior to women, if her Zhao family had not produced such an outstanding figure as her eldest brother Zhao Xingyuan, the Zhao family’s family fortunes had fallen into decline more than ten years ago. Zhao Shuyu’s ending would not have been much better than Chuntao’s.

Zhao Shuyu waved her hand to little Myolie, who picked up a cloak and walked over to cover Chuntao.

Chuntao was stunned and immediately kowtowed to Zhao Shuyu, “Thank you, Fourth Miss. I beg Fourth Miss to be kind and not sell Chuntao. Chuntao doesn’t want to be a slave girl.”

Zhao Shuyu sighed, “I won’t sell you, but Third Brother’s yard can no longer accommodate you. From now on, you can only go to the front yard to be a sweeper, or I can find an ordinary family and marry you. It’s your choice.”

Chuntao was stunned, she didn’t expect that she could still escape death.

Yesterday, the third young master made it clear that he would not care about her life or death. She was just a slave. Even if she had some beauty, she was no different from an animal in the eyes of his master.

Fighting and scolding are casual, and sales are just a matter of one sentence.

After this night of being detained in the firewood room, Chuntao had thought clearly, and now she no longer clung to those unrealistic dreams. She gathered up her cloak and kowtowed to Zhao Shuyu respectfully, “Fourth Miss, Chuntao is willing to marry.”

Zhao Shuyu nodded, and then asked Xiao Xing’er to take Chuntao back to her yard.

In fact, Zhao Shuyu had already made plans before coming to the woodshed.

The world is unfair to women. She wants to give Chuntao a chance, but she is not a bottomless fool.

If Chuntao is still nostalgic for the wealth of the Zhao family, then she will work as a hard-working cleaning maid in the front yard from now on, and it will be up to her to live and die.

But if Chuntao wanted to live a steady life, she would also give Chuntao a dowry and honor her third brother.

Zhao Xifan had no comment on Zhao Shuyu’s arrangement and just let her be happy.

After Zhao Shuyu settled Chuntao’s affairs, she was in a good mood and looked happy for several days.

Seeing that the New Year was approaching, Zhao Xingyuan sent another letter. The affairs of Hezhou Salt Village were handled smoothly, but he couldn’t come back in time for the New Year and would not return until spring.

This is not the first time that Zhao Xingyuan has not been at home to celebrate the New Year. Zhao Muqing and Zhao Xifan have become accustomed to it.

Only Zhao Shuyu felt a little disappointed. After all, among the three brothers, only the eldest brother doted on her the most, and she relied more on Zhao Xingyuan.

Zhao Xingyuan no longer lives in the house, and Zhao Xifan has been missing all day long. Zhao Muqing consciously shouldered the responsibility of educating Zhao Shuyu and became more and more strict with her.

As the New Year is approaching, there are no classes in the study. This is the most relaxing time of the year, but Zhao Shuyu is stared at coldly by Zhao Muqing every day, reading the three obediences and four virtues, and the precepts and training for women.

The contents in that book were extremely displeasing to Zhao Shuyu.

I even find it unbelievable, why can a man have three wives and four concubines, but a woman has to live with one?

She also argued with Zhao Muqing several times, and even used the “Tao Te Ching” that had confused Gao Xiheng before to argue with Zhao Muqing.

In the end, Zhao Muqing only said that she was biased and sophistry. In the end, he took out a ruler and hit her several times before she shut up obediently.

In just five or six days, Zhao Shuyu suffered so much that one Buddha was born and two Buddhas ascended to heaven.

When she couldn’t bear the treatment anymore, she changed her tune and began to beg softly. Unexpectedly, the more coquettish she was to please, the harsher Zhao Muqing became.

After being beaten several times with the ruler, Zhao Muqing finally beat Zhao Shuyu away one day.
