"Thank you for the old lady's help! The slave and maid must be loyal to the old lady! The little girl kneeling on the ground raised her head, and a touch of resoluteness on her face made it impossible to ignore! She took the silver from Mother He's hand and whispered to Mother He, "Thank you, Mom!" When the little one goes back to bury his master, he will come to work, and ask his mother to tell me the address of the old lady's house. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info" Mother He looked at this girl who was small, but had big ideas and courage, and couldn't help but feel pity, and said: "The place where we live is far away from here, and the seventh courtyard of Wutong Lane in the western suburbs is. Where is your master now? Is it okay for you to be alone? The little girl said, "My master has already placed people in Yizhuang." All I need to do now is to go over and buy him a coffin, ask someone to do a ritual for him, and let him be buried in the ground. There are special people in Yizhuang to do these things. Now that I have the silver, I can get it done. Mother He couldn't help but be secretly surprised when she saw that she was talking, and asked, "Little girl, how old are you this year?" What is your name? Where is your owner from? The little girl said, "Mom, I'll go and get down to business first, and then I'll report them one by one!" As he spoke, he solemnly kowtowed three more times before getting up. Seeing that the little girl was gone, there was no excitement to see, and the crowd around her soon dispersed.

Looking at the figure of the little girl walking farther and farther, the coachman patted his thigh and said, "Old lady, you just gave the money to this little girl?" Aren't you afraid of a scammer? This little girl has been here for several days, and everyone says she is pitiful, but no one has really helped. At most, people just give a few dollars and let her mix a full meal. The old lady smiled and said, "I think this woman is firm-hearted, young and old, and she doesn't seem to be a treacherous person." Even if I deceived her, I was just kind, not malicious. It's just a matter of doing another good deed. The coachman nodded again and again, and said, "The old lady is kind and kind! As he spoke, he was about to move on, but he heard He's mother say, "No need to go." The old lady was a little tired. Let's just walk around here for a while and then go back! The driver stopped on the side of the road as he said.

The old lady and Mother He took An Niang and Cuihuan out of the car, and An Niang looked at the surrounding shops and felt that it was very strange everywhere. The old lady took the group straight into a nearby garment store and said to Mother He: "Come up in a hurry, the weather is so cold, and the New Year is approaching." The family will have to ask someone to make clothes for a while, and I'm afraid I can't. Let's buy a dress in this ready-to-wear shop first, and relieve the hunger and cold in front of us! Hearing the old lady say this, Mother He's eyes turned red all of a sudden, she was an old servant of the Meng family, so she naturally knew the details of the Meng family. In the past few years, in order to provide for Young Master Yingqi to catch up with the exam, the old lady has already emptied her family. This time I went to Beijing, so to speak, I brought all the softness with me. The cost of Jing on this journey is not a small amount, although Young Master Yingqi took the lion's head, the old lady secretly posted some of it. Before leaving, the second master secretly gave the old lady five hundred taels of silver, but the old lady was going to keep it for the young master to marry his wife. Although the young master has a real shortage now, but the money is fixed, and there are so many people in the family, and so many entertainments have been added recently, the old lady's hands should be even more cramped. Thinking of this, Mother He hurriedly said: "There are new clothes every year. Old lady, I don't want to add it. You can't finish what you rewarded me in previous years, and I added it to the bottom of the box. She said as she winked at Cuihuan, suggesting that she was following her. As soon as Cuihuan entered the store, he was hooked by the room full of gorgeous clothes, and his eyes were full of amazement. Besides, at the age of thirteen or fourteen, which is the age when I love to dress up, when I heard my mother's words, my first reaction was to pretend not to hear it. However, An Niang, who was beside the old lady, turned back to Mother He and smiled sweetly, and said, "Mom, I also have a lot of new clothes." It's just that my grandmother said that the style of our clothes is very different from that in Beijing, and I am afraid that those guests who come to the door will be criticized. Mother He was stunned when she heard this, but she didn't expect that An Niang was only seven years old, and she was so eye-catching and sensible. In comparison, it seems that he is too petty and has no vision. I can't help but feel a little ashamed. But I heard Mrs. Meng's voice: "Ziqing, I know your good intentions." But don't worry, we're not here yet. Let go of your eyes and help us pick a good two. You and Cuihuan should be okay too. People want clothes, and Buddhas want gold. The old adage is still to be used. Mother He smiled and said, "I'm confused!" Not yet Miss saved. ”

So she let go of her mental burden and quickly chose several sets of clothes in this shop. The style, the fabric, all fine, the clothes and the people are also very compatible. The shopkeepers who have always been snobbish in the store couldn't help but admire, and couldn't help but come forward to inquire about their identities. When I heard that Mrs. Meng was the mother of Xinke Tanhua, the shopkeeper was even more respectful. When it came to the final checkout, he even proposed not to collect money, as long as Meng Tanhua took care of one or two in the future. Meng Mu naturally wouldn't ask for such a bargain. After paying the price of the clothes in full, an additional reward was given.

When she went home, Mother He accompanied the old lady to talk about the customs of the capital, Anniang was a little sleepy because of her young age, but Cuihuan was immersed in the joy of the new clothes, and told Anniang about the new clothes she had just bought today, which color was good-looking, which one was novel, and which material she had not seen before. The room was filled with her chattering voices. In the end, Mother He couldn't listen to it anymore, so she sent her to help in the kitchen, and then gave An Niang a quiet room.

After going out for a day, An Niang quickly got tired. I ate something hastily with the old lady and went to bed early. And the old lady was just about to rest, when she heard Mother He come to report that the little girl she had met during the day had come to the door.

The old lady asked Mother He to take her to eat something, and then she met someone in the living room. I saw a slender and thin figure standing in the shadow of the lamp, with a straight posture. If it weren't for her own claim that she was a slave before, the old lady would definitely think that she had seen a lady from a big family. Although she was uncertain in her heart, her face did not reveal half of it. He just calmly asked, "Now can you tell me who you are?" Whose slave are you? Who is the head of your house? What happened? If you have something to hide, please forgive my family for not keeping you, the ten taels of silver, even if I gave the temple incense money. When the little girl saw the old lady, she knelt on her knees and said, "Since I have sold myself to you, I am your slave." To tell you the truth, my master is none other than Lord Zhou Licheng, who went to the Yellow River for disaster relief some time ago but was impeached! He was ordered by the emperor to raid his house, his family wealth was scattered, and he died of illness on the street, but no one cared about him. I am a slave maid who has been adopted by Lord Zhou and his wife since I was a child, named Qingyu. The family was ruined, and I couldn't bear to see the head of the family die tragically, so I voluntarily sold myself. Lord Zhou didn't make a deed of sale with me back then, although our name is the master and servant, in fact, we are like father and daughter! ”
