Travel through the farmhouse leisurely

Chapter 252 The Busy in the Plain (1)
"Grandma Huang, this Mr. Lin is my good friend, just let the good ones out today, and don't just pick up crooked melons and cracked dates to fool me." Fang Yajia knew that the Lin family was very concerned about this matter. Seeing that he didn't have any ideas, he spoke first.

After hearing this, Grandma Huang put on a big smile and said, "Boss Fang brought it here in person, my old lady knows it well! All the ones standing in my yard are good, and I did them a few days ago It’s just received, it’s not just been trained, it’s about to find the master’s hand!”

"Masters and ladies, you can choose carefully. If you want to ask questions, or whatever, please feel free to do so." This yellow toothmaid is also very winking, she can see that Lin Erniu and the others are a little cramped, I don't know So rough, he reminded me aloud.

Lin Xiaoqiao and the others were also indifferent after hearing this. If there was anything else, maybe Lin Xiaoqiao would have jumped out first, but she really didn't know where to start with the matter of buying someone.

Just when the few of them were at a loss, Widow Zheng had already silently observed the dozens of people standing in the yard, and she saw that they were almost there, so she took the two sisters Lin Xiaoqiao and walked forward : "Look at it now and learn a little bit."

Widow Zheng picked out a dozen people, asked some simple questions, then looked at their hands, and picked four girls in their teens and a couple in their forties according to what everyone had agreed upon. aged couple.

After selecting people and negotiating the price, Mrs. Li paid 30 taels of silver and took their deeds of sale. Lin Xiaoqiao and the others took these people and went home.

After returning, Widow Zheng gave these newly bought servants a training call. Lin Xiaoqiao looked at Widow Zheng's majestic look from the side, and was a little intimidated.

After finishing the training and seeing the trembling faces of these servants, Widow Zheng asked Lin Xiaoqiao to name them.

Lin Xiaoqiao was a little dumbfounded, and didn't know what to name, so he randomly named the four girls "red bamboo, green bamboo, lotus leaf, lotus flower". As for the old couple, they just followed their original names. The son called "Uncle Lu, Aunt Lu".

The two girls, Red Bamboo and Green Bamboo, are both eleven or twelve years old. When Widow Zheng picked them, she picked them for Lin Xiaoqiao and sisters, so they will follow the two girls from now on.

As for the two girls, He Ye and He Hua, who are a little older, they are both thirteen or fourteen years old. From now on, one of them will follow Mrs. Li, and the other will follow Widow Zheng.

As for Uncle Lu and Aunt Lu, one of them is in charge of the gate, and the other is in charge of the Lin family's kitchen. Besides, they will also be responsible for some trivial matters of the Lin family in the future.

Originally, Lin Xiaoqiao also wanted to buy a servant for his father, who would always follow him, but Lin Erniu felt uncomfortable, so he refused.

As for Dalang and Erlang, they didn't buy a book boy to accompany them because Lin Xiaoqiao felt that he didn't want to give them these foolish things at all right now. .

The two brothers, Dalang and Erlang, also agreed with their younger sister's approach, and they didn't feel unhappy about it.

There are a few new people in the family, Lin Xiaoqiao feels that he doesn't need to do anything himself, he just needs to talk about it.

The little girl who followed her was called Luzhu, she was diligent and clever, so she could basically do things according to her wishes. Lin Xiaoqiao has enjoyed this kind of life more and more, being able to order others to work .

As for Li Shi and Lin Xiaoxi, they were not used to it at first. There was always a little girl by their side. The mother and daughter always felt that way, very awkward and uncomfortable.

Moreover, Mrs. Li has developed the habit of doing everything by herself, so she is not used to ordering others to do things.

However, Li Shi's appearance made Li Hua, who followed her to serve, always a little panicky at first, thinking that Li Shi had a lot of dissatisfaction with her, and that's why she was like this.

One day, she knelt down in front of Mrs. Li and pleaded guilty: "Madam, I don't know what I did wrong, can you tell me directly. After I know, I will definitely change it. Woooo—— "

While wiping her tears, Lianhua had the courage to say these words. Seeing her crying so miserably, one feels a little pity.

However, Mrs. Li felt that He Hua's behavior was a bit inexplicable. She thought about it for a while, and asked herself that she seemed to have never abused this girl before, why would she kneel down in front of herself and say these words inexplicably today? Come on?
Mrs. Li couldn't figure it out, so she asked, "What are you doing? When did I say you did something wrong? Get up quickly!"

After He Hua heard this, she cried more vigorously: "Madam, please tell this servant bluntly. If it is not that this servant did something wrong, then it means that Madam hates this servant? If this is the case, this servant only begs Madam not to sell her." Or drive out, the servant can do any job. Or the servant can go to the kitchen to help, or just do any chores, the servant promises that she will never appear in front of the madam and make the madam unhappy."

Mrs. Li was even more puzzled when she heard her crying and saying a lot of strange words, but she still said patiently: "How do I hate you? Who did you listen to say this? In fact, I am quite I like you."

"Ah—is it true?" He Hua was also a little confused. She used to work as a maid in another master's house, but she made a small mistake and was sold again.

Based on her experience, if she hadn't done something wrong, or didn't please her master, how could she have been left in the cold and not allowed to do things.

Seeing the tears in this girl's eyes and the puzzled expression on her face, Mrs. Li felt pity instantly. She thought that this girl was only 14 years old, and she was older than her eldest daughter. I'm two years old.

It's pitiful that she has a small face and looks pretty, but she has been reduced to being a servant of others, being ordered around by others.

Looking at the lotus, Mrs. Li suddenly thought, if her family is not prosperous and her life is as poor and poor as before, will her children face such a fate one day?

The more Li thought about it, the more she felt cold and afraid. If Lin Xiaoqiao knew her mother's thoughts, she would definitely despise her a little in her heart. I can't afford to be hurt, especially this old woman who has become a mother, even more so!
Why, I like to think of everything on myself, and the more miserable it is, the more inexplicably it will be drawn on myself.I really don't understand!
