Chapter 909 This is the woman’s confidence

It's a long journey. The sandstorms in Tiema City are raging, how can it compare to the prosperity and comfort of the capital?

It is natural for wet nurses to be unwilling to go along as their own children are still young.

Shi Anxia didn't force it.

But who would have thought that several wet nurses would actually express their willingness to follow.

In fact, in the past year, they have all received the princess's favor to varying degrees.

Some people were taken care of and their lives were much better than before; some people's children had high fever and almost died, and were saved only because the princess sent doctors to treat them; and some people, who were treated harshly by their mother-in-law, felt comfortable living with the princess, for fear that they would be sent home to be tortured again.

The nurses all knelt on the ground and said respectfully, "We servants are willing to follow the princess."

Shi Anxia didn't really want to change people, but she was worried that they would be separated from their families and feel sad in the future, so she said solemnly, "Are you sincere? If you regret it after you've made up your mind, I won't let you off easily."

The nurses kowtowed one after another, saying firmly, "We will never regret it!"

Shi Anxia nodded and said in a gentle voice, "In that case, let's all get up."

He added, "Although the Iron Horse City is not as good as the capital, we will not treat you unfairly. From today on, your monthly salary will be tripled, and you will get two sets of clothes for each season. In addition, you will be given fox fur to keep you warm in winter and ice silk to keep you cool in summer. If you do a good job, you will get another reward at the end of the year."

Upon hearing this, the wet nurses were all filled with gratitude and expressed their gratitude in unison.

"Thank you, Princess, for your kindness!"

"We will do our best and will never let the princess down."

Where there is reward, there will naturally be punishment.

Shi Anxia changed the subject and his voice became a little stern. "If anyone pretends to obey but actually disobeys, and has other thoughts," his eyes slashed through the crowd like a blade, "then the reward will be heavy, and the punishment will be even heavier."

The nurses trembled all over. Nanny Zhang dropped the handkerchief on the ground, but she didn't dare to pick it up.

They were shocked to realize that the princess, who was weak after giving birth and always spoke softly, now had powerful eyes, and a single glance from her could make people tremble with fear.'

The princess was gentle for so long that people began to think she was truly a gentle person.

Before everyone arrived at Iron Horse City, they could already feel the raging sandstorm of Iron Horse City on the princess.

"So, are you still willing to come with me?" Shi Anxia asked for the last time.

This question was like a spring breeze melting snow, but it made everyone's heart tighten suddenly, and they all knelt down again, "We are willing."

Shi Anxia was satisfied and gave Bei Hui a look.

Bei Hui came forward carrying a lacquer tray. The snow-silver ingot in the tray was dyed by the twilight and shone brightly in the sunset.

It makes people's eyes wet and their hearts warm.

The maids narrowed their eyes and vaguely saw the faces of their own children. If they took the silver back, their mother-in-law would feed them half an extra bowl of meat soup, right?

Bei Hui gave out silver coins one by one, 10 taels per person. Nan Yan then stepped forward and gave out several silver notes, 40 taels per person.

The total amount is fifty taels of silver.

The severance pay is small, but the "growth money" given to the mothers-in-law is large. But this is not a reward, it is clearly a chain to control people's hearts.

The lotus pattern carved on the edge of the lacquer plate floats in the light and shadow, just like the corners of Shi Anxia's smiling lips.

She knew too well the weakness of these wet nurses: in the eyes of most husbands-in-law, they were just walking milk bags. Only by letting the husbands-in-law know that this "milk bag" was the key to the princess's success, could the wet nurses' children who stayed in the capital be treated well.

The wet nurses knew what was going on and held the reward money with gratitude.

The princess was thoughtful and even thought of this.

Bei Hui held up the lacquer tray, in the secret compartment of which were the indentures of the six wet nurses. "After discussing among yourselves, take turns going home to say goodbye to your families today and tomorrow. We will set off the day after tomorrow."

In this way, the wet nurses settled down and Shi Anxia finally put her mind at ease.

When Mother Wang and Mother Zeng learned that their daughters-in-law were going to Tiema City with the princess, they couldn't help but smile.

Mother Wang said, "Go, go, go. If you go back, you will become the princess's confidant. You should be more calm and put the little princess first in everything. Also, be more sincere. People are all made of flesh and blood. You don't have to show off everything. The princess will see it with her wise eyes."

Zeng's mother also said, "Oh my God, you are so lucky. You are really a blessing to our Zeng family. If you are willing to follow the princess to Iron Horse City, the princess will remember your kindness. You should watch more, think more, and talk less, and pay attention to everything the little princess does. Don't listen to others' instigation and have thoughts that you shouldn't have."

The daughters-in-law all agreed one by one, wishing they could engrave their mother-in-law's words on their foreheads.

The two mothers-in-law also reminded, "If the master rewards you, you must be extremely grateful. If the master does not reward you, do not feel resentful. Because they are giving you monthly wages, do you understand?"

Mother Wang and Mother Zeng had been with the princess for a while, so they naturally knew the princess's style of rewards and punishments.

She would not be like many wealthy families who rewarded a little when they remembered or were in a good mood. She would remember everything in her mind and wait for the right opportunity to reward generously at the same time, giving people a surprise.

It is said that each of the princess's personal maids has a house in the capital.

It’s really enormous wealth!

"Remember, when you serve the princess, you must take what is yours and don't be greedy for what is not yours."

The two daughters-in-law nodded promptly and handed over all the silver the princess had rewarded them with.

The mothers-in-law were all smiling.

Mother Wang took out ten taels of silver and stuffed them into her daughter-in-law's hand, "Take this to keep with you in case of emergency. When you go out, you can't be without any silver."

The daughter-in-law hesitated, "I am with the princess, so I don't need it."

"Take it, take it. A woman will feel confident only when she has some private money. You didn't have much dowry when you came to my house. Didn't you always feel uneasy? Save it. When you save more, you will feel confident. If my son says something harsh to you, just raise your head and leave the house. Don't pay any attention to him! This is a woman's confidence."

When the daughter-in-law took it shyly, there was tenderness in her eyes.

Wang Shun, Wang's son, smiled helplessly, "Mom, I am your son!"

"So what if you are my son? If you treat your wife badly, I will not acknowledge you either."

"Don't dare!" Wang Shun hugged his son and smiled, tapping his forehead. "When you grow up, you must be filial to your mother. Remember that she earns money to support you. Otherwise, your grandmother will be the first to beat you."

The room was filled with laughter and joy, which diluted the sadness of parting.

Zeng's mother also gave her daughter-in-law ten taels of silver for her own use. "Save the rest for you. When you come back from Tiema City, I'll give you some more silver, and you can buy a house for yourself and move there."

The daughter-in-law was delighted. "So I am not the mistress of my family now?" Hehe, she was happy. There was hope.

Another wet nurse, Madam Su, went home and gave some silver to her mother-in-law.

The mother-in-law was also smiling, but she asked worriedly, "Is that all?"

Nanny Su's heart trembled, and she clenched her hands involuntarily, "Yes, the princess is very generous."

The reward was fifty taels of silver, and she withheld thirty taels.
