rich concubine

Chapter 1663 asked two stupid questions

Seeing that the little maids didn't know how to speak, Qiu Xin took a step forward and answered for them.

"Ma'am, don't be surprised. It's not that these little maids have stage fright. It's just that they are all girls and they are young. Whenever they go out, they definitely don't go out to drink. Occasionally they come back to buy some trinkets and makeup. If they say they go out to drink, I'm afraid they I do not understand."

Only then did Rong Yi think about it. She had been struggling with this problem for a long time and had not even thought of this problem.

At this time, Qianxi said: "Girl, maybe these sisters don't drink. I sometimes drink a little when I'm not busy. It's just that I'm not an alcoholic! I just drink a little occasionally, so as not to delay my work!"

Seeing her confessing and hurriedly explaining herself, Rong Yi smiled, waved her hand, and said, "I'm not asking you this today to check you. Why are you nervous? You have always done a great job since you served me." Okay, it’s okay to drink a little occasionally, but you are really still young, so it’s better to drink less. It was my question that was strange just now. Let’s put it another way, if you were asked to go out to eat at a certain restaurant, how would you choose? "

Qian Xi was embarrassed for a moment. Seeing that the little sisters around her didn't know what to say, she said, "Girl, don't be ridiculous. Although the slaves serve girls in the Chang's Mansion, their monthly salary is higher than that of ordinary people." Moreover, in addition to the daily rewards from the masters, they can get a lot of money every month, but the slaves have to save this money to honor their parents when they return in the future, or... to make dowry."

The last sentence was said a little shyly, and after mumbling, he added: "Slaves don't dare to wander around in an ordinary big restaurant in the capital. A bowl of water might cost an ingot of gold."

This little maid is not exaggerating, but for them, such a large restaurant is really out of reach. They only know that most of the people who usually hang out there are people with some background, like them, who serve people. A low-class person, she was afraid that she would be kicked out before she even entered.

Because of the unknown, you will be afraid and dare not touch it.

Rong Yi was stunned. For a moment, her mood was complicated. She really asked two stupid questions in succession today. She thought that she had also come up step by step in this way, but she was still different from them.

In any case, his father was the general manager of the Duke's Mansion at the time, and his family situation was much better than that of most common people in the capital. However, the people of the Fu family had always upheld the virtue of frugality. Although they were not careful about spending money, they were never I won’t teach my family members to be extravagant, for fear that others won’t know that this is a wealthy family.

However, at that time, among the maids, I lived the most honorable life, not only because of my status as a good citizen, but also because I had a rich father. At that time, I was young and had an unstable temperament. The father was afraid that if he gave his son too much money, he would learn bad things. After all, at that time, he liked to hang out with others even if he had no money. If he had a lot of money, he didn't know what he would do.

There were four members of the Fu family, and the poorest one was Fu Hezhong. His father’s money was naturally his mother’s money, but at that time, although his mother was not good to herself, she never let anyone down in terms of maintaining the family’s finances and being frugal. So many years later, except for Fu Hezhong, who was unknown at the time, everyone in the family was very low-key, and it was hard to tell that they were a wealthy family.

Rong Yi's pocket money is far more than her monthly salary when she was serving Qin Dailong. Her father raised her richly. At that time, his father always joked that his son must be raised poor to be successful. , My daughter needs to be rich, and she will not treat herself badly if she has plenty of money, so I can have a long-term vision in the future.

Therefore, when Rongyi was a girl, it was normal for her to go to some expensive teahouses and restaurants to eat some side dishes and drink some famous wines.

On the other hand, Chunliu at that time was the same as me, and her monthly income was not much different, but she was not as happy with money as she was. Every money she spent was planned clearly. To be honest, Although the relationship with her was not very good at the beginning, Rong Yi himself benefited a lot from what he learned from her.

Chunliu is the eldest maid and has not yet been able to use money freely, let alone Xiao Guanyun and others who are waiting in the courtyard. Qianxi is no different from them.Thinking back on this, Rong Yi sighed again. She was still too narrow-minded. She didn't consider many things comprehensively because she had never experienced them. She was occasionally sad before and felt that she was unlucky and had never had a good time. But now Looking back, I don't know how much better my life is than others, and I don't need to moan unnecessarily.

Looking at the little maids in front of me, I should be satisfied.

After thinking about this matter, Rong Yi also knew that she was going in the wrong direction. It was inappropriate to ask this kind of question to the maid cleaning her yard. She should be asking those outside who could afford it.

Thinking of this, she immediately took action. Instead of asking them one by one, she thought of a way. With pen, ink, paper and inkstone waiting for her, she put the pen on the paper and wrote down a few questions.

Then he asked: "How many of you can write?"

In fact, asking is just a try. They were sold into the mansion at such a young age, so it's really...an unexpected surprise that they can learn to read.

But she didn't expect that the girl named Qianxi could really do it. She proudly said that her father was once a scholar, but it was a pity that a cold winter took him away, and her mother passed away long ago, leaving her an orphan. In order to survive, she also happened to have this opportunity to come to the Changfu to serve her. She knew a lot of writing and reading.

There was also a relatively reserved little maid who also raised her hand. She was originally serving girls in a scholarly family, but at that time, when the regime was changing and the court was in turmoil, thugs were rampant and would rob anyone who dared to break into a house. A scholarly family like theirs would naturally suffer disaster, but she just happened to go home to visit her parents that day, so she escaped the disaster.

She had been serving a young lady who had poetry and books, and she also learned from her. She knew a lot. However, something unexpected happened later and she was resold several times. Her luck was bad or not. For a little girl to encounter these things is not much experience. So, Damn it, but it's good to say that even though she was resold many times, she was never sold to those vulgar places, let alone sold to others as a concubine. All the misfortunes in the past were probably just to send her to the Chang's Mansion. Come on, maybe it's because she has encountered so many things, so she usually just keeps her head down and doesn't talk much.

Now that she could raise her hand, Rong Yi was also surprised. She just asked the two of them to come over and write a few words for a look. Seeing that they looked serious, they were like test takers and their written words were all good. The word "Xianxi" was "Scholar Dad" The master taught me to write well, and Bao Huan also wrote fine handwriting neatly. It was obvious that he had put in hard work.

Rong Yi put the piece of paper she had written on in front of them and asked them to copy it down.

The two of them had serious faces, and they took the task that the girl suddenly handed over to them very seriously.

Rong Yi looked at the two of them, and then at the other maids who were at a loss. She suddenly sighed, turned around and walked out, then called Granny Bai over and whispered: "These girls in my yard, Many of them are illiterate, and when they are old enough to be released from the government, if they do not know a single Chinese character, their time in the government will be in vain."
