"In the city capital, although Master Zhu Hou is not in any court officials, nor does he have any strong political background, but in the whole Capital, the Zhu House is the richest House. That is an existence that everyone will know and take note of. Many of the supplies that the Imperial Court used, not only they are manufactured and produced under the name of Zhu House, but even the daily meals of the Emperor of Ning Dynasty were specially prepared by the chefs from Zhu House. So, don't mention the small potatoes citizens, even the officials in the Court must give their barest respect [1] where the people of Zhu House are concerned."
This is what Zhu Wuxin managed to hear after she woke up, the information that is part of the background from a maidservant.
And Zhu Wuxin, with much luck, is a part of this Zhu House. Not as a maidservant, and not as a small concubine, but a proper position as the House Fourth Miss. Although Zhu Wuxin just woke up, realizing that she shared the same name of the original body and that she's from a noble family, she can't help but get a bit excited inside.
But at the next moment, she lost the will to laugh out. It was because she is a child without parental love. On the outside, she is Zhu House Fourth Miss, on top of her in the sibling branch are two older brothers, and an older sister. Below her is another sister. But no one in the whole House had ever treated her as one of the Miss of the House. To be honest, it was because she was a daughter of a Concubine that even maidservants can bully her. Anyone also can use her to release anger. In the Zhu House, she was not more worthy than a maidservant. As a matter of fact, take a look at the maidservant who was sent to wait on her. She is enjoying herself, basking in the sunlight, while biting sunflower seed.
Zhu Wuxin called out at the maidservant for half the day, but she has the nerve to let Wuxin leave her on her own. Zhu Wuxin was so enranged, she jumped out of her bed and ruthlessly served the maid a tight slap, "Look properly, who is the Miss here!"
The maidservant was surprised by Zhu Wuxin's slap, because she never expected Wuxin to get angry. Taken half the day to recover from shock, the maid covered her red face and went to call the doctor for Wuxin.
The previous Zhu Wuxin was a living punching bag for others to release anger. But the current Zhu Wuxin, is not someone easy to be bullied. She is the Miss who would not be summoned. [2] Ever since she was sent back to Zhu House yesterday, if it's not because Master Zhu came back and found her looking unsightly by the front door, no one will actually take the initiative to carry her back inside. Because of that, she had been lying at the Zhu House's front door for a whole day, with clothes barely covering her body. After she woke up, she held in a stomach full of anger, as she was unable to vent and her personal maidservant was also killed by the red-haired man yesterday.
Not sure where this current maidservant sent to serve her was transferred from. If she haven't been called Miss by the maid, she wouldn't know who is actually the master here.
Zhu Wuxin was down with a fever ever since she came back, the wounds on her body either discharging pus or still bleeding but no one cared. As if they can't wait for her to die. She went back into her room, again lamented the injustice by Buddha. Not one benefit from transmigrating was given to her at all, but the unfortunate ones were served to her completely. And also, she was already an anger-release punching bag, how does she manage to encounter the maniac red-haired killer?! Couldn't be she does not want to live anymore, that she took the initiative to look for him, to let him end her, right?
Oh my Buddha, there's a lot of strange things happening now, this year especially more than ever.
