Five-year-old little girl: Mom has thousands of acres of material space

Chapter 295: Taking on a Servant
Jiang Xiaoxiao frowned after listening to the whole story. She felt that the group of people were really heartless and did not care about other people's lives for a little money.

"So..." Jiang Wei's eyes swept over Jiang Xuelian's tightly clenched fingers, "Are you coming to this suburb to seek death?"

Jiang Xuelian bit her lip and said nothing.

She didn't come here to commit suicide, but to find a knife to cut off her sixth finger.

But how is this different from committing suicide?
In that era, she was penniless and had no relatives or friends. The pain from the severed finger could easily lead to inflammation and infection, leading to death. There was no one in this wilderness who could save her.

"What's your name?" Jiang Wei looked at the girl in front of him and suddenly asked, "What kind of chores do you usually do? Can you clean and cook?"

Jiang Xuelian was stunned for a moment, then nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, yes! My name is Jiang Xuelian, I can do any job."

Not to mention cooking and cleaning the house, she is even willing to do dirty and tiring work like washing toilets.

As long as someone could give her a job, she would be grateful profusely and would not dare to complain.

"That's fine." Jiang Wei pointed at the carriage next to him with his chin, "Then get in the carriage and follow me to work at my house. I'll pay you 20 cents a day, and provide food and accommodation."

"Ah?" Now it was Jiang Xiaoxiao's turn to be stunned.

Her mother just kidnapped the girl like that?

Jiang Wei glanced at her and said, "Our two-story villa is still in need of a cleaner, and she is just the right person."

Makes sense.

Jiang Xiaoxiao nodded. Her mother was busy in the soap workshop all day long. If she went back now, she would probably be even busier. She was too young and short, and it was difficult for her to climb onto the table. The family really needed a servant.

This little girl named Jiang Xuelian is about fifteen or sixteen years old. She looks quite honest and is a suitable candidate.

At this moment, Jiang Xuelian was stunned by the 20-cent salary and free food and accommodation offered by Jiang Wei.

She opened her eyes wide in disbelief, and it took her a long time to react. She waved her hands and said, "I, I don't want any wages, as long as I can have something to eat..."

Halfway through her words, she suddenly realized that her six fingers had been exposed in front of Jiang Wei. She was so scared that she quickly covered her sixth finger, bit her lips tightly, and dared not speak, for fear that Jiang Wei would no longer want her.

However, Jiang Wei just glanced at her fingers calmly, without any emotion in his eyes, and his tone was as indifferent as always: "Don't stand there like an idiot, get in the car."

After saying this, without waiting for Jiang Xuelian to speak, she got on the carriage.

This was probably the first time Jiang Xuelian met such a cold and arrogant person. She was stunned and even forgot to cover her fingers.

"Your name is Jiang Xuelian, right? Then I will call you Sister Xuelian from now on." Jiang Xiaoxiao walked forward with a smile and pulled Jiang Xuelian up. "Don't kneel down. Get on the carriage quickly. My home is in Yong'an Town, which is far away from here. It will take several days to travel."

"No, no..." Jiang Xuelian waved her hands, "How can I ride in a carriage? I can just walk downstairs."

At this time, Jiang Wei stuck his head out from the front of the carriage and glanced at her coldly: "If you keep wasting my time with such nagging, I really don't want you anymore."

"I-I…I'm sorry!"

When Jiang Xuelian heard this, she panicked immediately. Without caring about anything else, she immediately picked up Jiang Xiaoxiao and jumped onto the carriage.

The speed was so fast that even Jiang Xiaoxiao couldn't react.

After realizing what was happening, Jiang Xiaoxiao looked at Jiang Xuelian with a pale face and breathing slightly, and couldn't help but laugh out loud.

But it must be said that when facing someone as inferior and sensitive as Jiang Xuelian, her mother's words are indeed the most effective.

As soon as the two of them sat down, Jiang Wei, who was sitting in the front, flicked the whip in his hand and the carriage started moving immediately.

The roads in the suburbs are bumpy and not as smooth as the bluestone roads in the city.

Jiang Xuelian, on the other hand, looked curious. It was her first time riding in a carriage. Even though she was still a little nervous, she couldn't help but look around.

She touched the soft blanket with her fingers, and then lifted the curtain to look at the scenery passing by. Her skinny face was filled with uncontrollable excitement.

Jiang Xiaoxiao wanted to laugh when she saw this. She took out two pieces of yam cake with date paste from the box on the coffee table and handed one to Jiang Xuelian with a smile.

Jiang Xuelian subconsciously wanted to wave her hand to refuse, but just as she was about to speak, Jiang Xiaoxiao quickly stuffed the date paste and yam cake into her mouth.

The soft, sweet pastry melts in your mouth.

Jiang Xuelian's eyes widened, she held the pastry in her mouth, her throat moved, and she subconsciously put it into her mouth.

It’s so delicious!
She had never eaten such delicious cakes.

Jiang Xuelian's face was full of surprise and joy, as if she had forgotten her previous restraint and was intoxicated by the delicious taste...

Seeing this, Jiang Xiaoxiao smiled and stuffed two more pieces into her hand, then took two more pieces of cake and went to the front.

She opened the car curtain, sat down next to her mother, and handed the cakes to her.

Jiang Wei glanced at the cake and said coldly: "I don't like it, you can eat it by yourself."

Jiang Xiaoxiao curled her lips: "This jujube paste and yam cake is obviously delicious, sweet and sticky..."

After saying that, she stuffed a piece into her mouth.

Her mother is really something, why doesn’t she like sweets? It’s obvious that sweets can make people feel better.

Jiang Wei looked ahead and said, "After leaving Xuzhou City, we can reach the nearby town in a few dozen miles. You can eat whatever you want there."

Jiang Xiaoxiao ate the jujube paste and yam cake and said incoherently: "Aren't we in a hurry to get on the road? Should we rest there for a night?"

"Let's wait and see." Jiang Wei said.

It doesn’t matter whether they rest or not, the main thing is that the horses need rest, water and food.

There was food for humans in her space, but no fodder for horses.

Jiang Xiaoxiao thought about it and said, "Let's rest in the town for a night, Mom. Or we can find another driver. It's a ten-day journey. If you drive the carriage alone..."

Before she finished speaking, Jiang Xuelian poked her head out from behind her and said hesitantly, "Well, well... Actually, I can drive a carriage, why don't you let me try."

"You?" Jiang Wei turned his head and looked at her suspiciously.

……

Half an hour later.

Jiang Xiaoxiao and her mother sat in the carriage, still feeling a little unbelievable.

The carriage moved forward steadily, at a speed only faster than the one driven by Jiang Wei.

Jiang Xiaoxiao couldn't help but lift the carriage curtain, leaned out and asked Jiang Xuelian in front of her: "Sister Xuelian, isn't this your first time riding in a carriage? How come..."

Jiang Xuelian held the whip in her hand and drove the carriage skillfully. She even turned back and smiled at her, "This is indeed my first time riding in a carriage, but I have seen people driving carriages on the street before, and I don't know how I learned it."

Jiang Xiaoxiao: "..."

What a genius.

Just watch it once and you'll get it.

She didn't even have to do any practical work; she just got the hang of it.
