Chapter Ninety-Six: Brothers of the Single Family
The two young men are both good-looking, white and clean, neatly dressed, looking at the calm and clear-eyed temperament, not much like a small guy or a hawker who came to ask for goods, but like a young master of any family. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
But right now, the two of them are doing what only the little guys do!
Yu Chongtian had just hugged several large folded oiled paper bags placed in the carriage into his arms, and the two teenagers hurriedly took the oiled paper bags from his hands.......
Yu Qiao watched quietly, fanning the wind with a fan while waiting for Yu Chongtian to introduce them.
"These two are ......" Bai Shi saw that her husband brought back two strange young men with extraordinary bearing, and her face was also full of confusion, and she asked Yu Chongtian on the spot.
"Brother Xuan, you take these two brothers to the kitchen to put things away." Yu Chongtian didn't answer her first, but bent over and patted his youngest son's back with his eyes full of affection and explained slowly.
"Well, you come with me, my family is big." Yu Fengxuan shook the big pu fan in his hand and finished speaking, then turned around and walked on his short legs, and ran away in three or two.
When the two teenagers saw it, they bowed to everyone and said hello, and then followed Yu Fengxuan to the backyard kitchen.
"These two children are also pitiful." Yu Chongtian looked at the backs of the two teenagers, sighed with regret on his face, and continued: "After I finished buying spices, when I went out of the vegetable market, I happened to meet a group of officials selling a large family, and there were dozens of people in the family. The prices are very cheap, and some women ...... Don't mention it. I saw that no one wanted this brother and a half, so as not to go astray, and I thought that there was a shortage of manpower at home, so I bought it back. ”
"Servant selling? What happened to their family? Yu Qiao listened, and his heart jumped.
If you offend some powerful people, you must not take them in just out of a moment of pity.
Although the family's business is good now, it can only be regarded as a little bit of family foundation, but it can't withstand the unguarded difficulties of some powerful people. For the sake of the stability of the family, it is necessary to inquire about the reasons inside before we can talk about whether to accept it or not.
"On the way, I heard from them that the family used to be in the coal mining business, and my uncle was still an official in the capital. It was the uncle who had an accident, as if he had written some kind of poem, and then was told by the imperial history that the saint said that he had the intention of pro-dynasty, and the saint was furious and immediately ordered to behead his uncle. Fortunately, the saint has always adhered to the rule of virtue, and spared their family members, but they were demoted to slavery and confiscated their family property. Yu Chongtian recalled the words of the slightly older young man and replied.
"Confiscation of family property?" Yu Qiao muttered this, and his heart was dumbfounded.
It seems that the family is also unlucky.
Judging from this behavior, it is clear that the informant took a fancy to his family's property, so he came up with such a harmful method and plotted to rob his family's property.
Since the future is not big, then you can stay.
"These two brothers, I look a little similar, are they brothers? What's the last name? "Even if the Bai family doesn't like to gossip, the woman's family always likes to inquire about some parents.
"The surname of the family is Shan, they are cousins, the older one who looks older and the taller one is called Shan Heli, and the younger one is called Shan Heyi." Yu Shigeta replied.
"Then their parents ....." Bai asked again.
"It shouldn't be in Dongyang Mansion at this moment, their family has been sold almost when I leave." Yu Chongtian frowned and said regretfully.
At this time, Yu Fengxuan led the two brothers out of the backyard kitchen.
"Sir, madam, the things have been put away." Shan Heli's face was indifferent, and his words were neither humble nor arrogant.
When Yu Qiao heard this, he turned his head to look at Shan Heli, Shan Heyi.
The two brothers are not very old, and they look like they are about thirteen or fourteen years old. Shan Heli's figure is thinner, standing straight at the door like a straight bamboo pole, and his blue straight jacket is slightly loose, but the length is extremely suitable, obviously he has suddenly lost weight in the past few days.
It seems that the changes in his family have dealt him a heavy blow.
It's no wonder that whoever is in the middle of the road, from the son of a scholarly family who had no worries about food and clothing, suddenly fell to the bottom of the era and was degraded to slavery, and he was unwilling to accept it in his heart.
Compared with Shan Heli's enlightenment, Shan Heyi obviously hasn't adapted to his new identity, he stood there quietly, pursed his lips, didn't say a word, with a hint of pride in his eyes, but he also seemed to understand his current situation, and followed Shan Heli in every move.
His appearance is more handsome than that of Shan Heli, and there is still childishness between his eyebrows.
"Hmm" Yu Chongtian nodded, suddenly looked at Yu Qiao and asked, "What kind of work do you think is better for the two of them?" ”
When the brothers of the single family heard this, their eyes invariably looked at Yu Qiao.
On the way here, Yu Chongtian didn't ask anything other than asking about their family. They thought that this was the style of the landlord of the peasant family, who was calm and informal, and did not want to think that the actual person in charge of the owner's family was a girl who had not yet reached the end of his life!
This girl is about twelve or thirteen years old, with a ruddy face like an apple, her exposed neck is as white as snow, her facial features are delicate and cute, and she is wearing a lotus-colored narrow-sleeved skirt.
When his family was wealthy before, there were also women in the family who were in charge of business, but most of them were elderly elders, and there was no one as young as the one in front of him.
Thinking about it, Shan Heli's gaze at Yu Qiao added respect.
In the past, he may have thought that a woman's lack of talent is virtue, let alone a strong person in charge of such a thing that damages the family's face in business, but the poverty and embarrassment he experienced in the past few days led him to deeply feel that it is a sad thing to be poor and white, and to be slaughtered by others!
Yu Qiao was slightly stunned, and subconsciously said: "It depends on what they will do." Then her heart moved, and after a moment of silence, she raised her head and asked the brothers of the Shan family: "You should all be literate, right?" ”
"I know, my brother and I were enlightened at the age of five." The reply is still a congratulatory gift.
"Hmm." Yu Qiao nodded, already knowing in his heart, and looked at Yu Chongtian squarely: "Our business is getting busier and busier, and we have to go to school after the autumn harvest." I'm still busy managing the accounts on my own, and it's hard to say anything about the future. Let's take precautions, let the two of them follow my brother to learn to keep accounts and open bills in the next few days, and when my brother goes to school, they should be able to start working alone. ”
"It's fine." Yu Chongtian looked at the two brothers' weak, thin-skinned and tender bodies, and nodded approvingly.
Yu Qiao and Yu Xi have been working with them early in the morning and working in the dark for many years, and now they are still young, and there is not much gossip about showing up, and it will not be a matter of waiting for another year or two after all, and it is not a good thing to retire early.
