After lunch at noon, the old lady took a nap, and in the afternoon she played dominoes with Mingzhu's granddaughters, and had a good time, until Mama Ma came over to say, "Old lady, Mrs. let people say, Granny Li led a group of girls over, and asked if you want to give long eyes?" ”

The old lady smiled when she heard this, "Go, take it to the small hall, and the children will choose one that fits their eyes, and they will be the ones who will serve you in the future." ”

Jia Xuan pondered that this was an intention to test them, but she was really a little worried, she didn't choose what kind of subordinate she didn't know what kind of person was qualified, which was also very important to herself, to have a loyal subordinate, it would be much easier to do things in the future, if everyone was like Peach, more like a grandmother than her master, what should I do.

Jia Xuan subconsciously cast her eyes on Mingzhu, Mingzhu snorted and glared at her, meaning that you are so stupid eyes, Jiaxuan pouted and reached out to pull Mingzhu's hand and shook coquettishly.

Mingzhu straightened her neck slightly, meaning to look at me.

The old lady saw a few children fighting a lawsuit, and she didn't speak, and the old god was holding the tea.

After a while, the maid came to report, "Old lady, the person has arrived." ”

"Well, let's go and see what's going on." The old lady took Mingzhu's hand and walked into the small hall.

Entering the house, there are two rows of pineapple wood carved moire circle back chairs and a small coffee table, the front is raised, the wall is hung with a famous calligraphy and painting, and there are two circle chairs and a desk table under the hem.

There is a flower shelf in the corner of the east door, on which are placed two pots of daffodils and spring, which are delicate and moving, exuding a shallow fragrance.

To the west is an interstitial screen of purple purlin wood ivory carved plum blossoms, and behind it is a resting compartment.

Seeing the old lady coming, Mrs. Li hurriedly took a step back to the side, and waited for the old lady to sit on the top before she stepped forward and saluted.

"Well, Mrs. Li, you can bring a good one over today, I want to choose someone to serve my granddaughter, I don't want it." The old lady laughed and joked.

"Look at what the old lady said, the eldest lady told me earlier, don't dare to delay your family's affairs, this time the goods are very good, there are so many look decent, they are all girls who fled the flood in the south and sold them, their net worth is innocent, you can rest assured." Mrs. Li smiled with her waist and smiled, making a cool style.

The maid Yinzhu served a cup of tea to the old lady with a tea tray, and also brought a cup of tea to Mrs. Li, "You drink tea." ”

"Oh, thank you, girl, the girl's style is even more handsome than my daughter, in the end, the old ladies and ladies can regulate people, our burnt rolls, we can learn one or two points to eat." Mrs. Li smiled and hugged the old lady.

"You old woman, don't talk about those gossip, bring people to me to see."

Mrs. Li clapped her hands and brought a group of little girls in, pushing and pushing them in two rows, and the eldest lady glanced at it and said, "This is the person you choose to serve, you can choose it yourself." ”

"Well, Mingzhu will come first, one by one." The old lady hugged Mingya, and next to her stood Jia Zhen and Jia Xuan.

Mingzhu took a step forward steadily and observed it, two rows of little girls, different heights, sparse hair, yellow muscles, thin faces, all looked very haggard, and the clothes on their bodies were not very good, they were all linen, and some were very short and did not fit.

"Hold out your hands and I'll see." Mingzhu glanced around, confidently and calmly spoke.

The little girls all stretched out their hands as they said and waited for Mingzhu's inspection.

Mingzhu stepped forward and turned around, observed, nodded slightly, and continued to speak, "If you have a specialty, stand on the left, for example, the female red is good, can make dim sum, can pickle vegetables, etc., even if you think you have a good mouth, you can stand up." ”

Soon the girls crowded next to each other and changed places, and two of them raised their heads slightly, looking very confident and generous.

Mingzhu saw it in his eyes, "Those who can write and settle accounts stand up, and those who have studied medicine and martial arts stand up." ”

This time it was very few, most of the peasant children were illiterate, only three stood up, and one of the girls was obviously a little taller, although she looked thinner, but more than a little better than the other girls, and she looked very strong.

"What's your name? Say something, starting from left to right. Mingzhu pointed at the three men.

The girl on the far left was dressed in a blue cloth dress, she looked beautiful and white, and she was more generous and confident than the other girls when she stood there.

"My name is Wang Sanniang, I can write and arithmetic, and I can also have some female red, not as good as embroidery but simple purse hemming."

After speaking, he smiled a little proudly, and glanced at the girl next to him, which was quite a bit disdainful of them.

Mingzhu nodded slightly, didn't say anything, and couldn't see the expression on her face.

"My name is Li Daya, my family has fled, my father and mother are dead, and my uncle and aunt don't want more people to eat, so they sold me. My father used to be a child, he could write and count, and the female red was generally not brilliant, but I would recognize some medicinal materials, and the mountains behind my house were full of medicinal materials, and we often concocted them ourselves to sell, and I would have some. ”

"I'm the daughter of the dart master called Sun Qian, my father died of a dart, my mother also followed, I was kicked out, sold myself, I also have a sister, I have practiced the basic martial arts skills are quite solid, if you want to buy me, you have to buy it with my sister." This girl was neat and tidy, and before she decided to want her, she made her own conditions.

Mingzhu looked around and pointed at the two or three girls with her hand, "You, the one in red clothes comes out, your eldest girl comes out, I want you Sun Qian and your sister." ”

He turned around and said, "Grandmother, mother, I've made my choice." ”

The old lady showed a satisfied look on her face, hugged Mingzhu and asked: "Good behave, you tell your grandmother, why don't you want the one named Sanniang, I look at her very well, she is generous, confident and polite, and her etiquette is better than others." ”

Jiaxuan nodded silently on the side, staring at Mingzhu's eyes, she also wanted to know, just now she was a little worried that if Mingzhu chose Sanniang, she would not be able to choose such a suitable one, she felt that Sanniang was very good, and the comprehensive su zhì was very good.

It's just strange why Mingzhu doesn't want Sanniang, she thinks Mingzhu is not unable to see that Sanniang is stronger than everyone else, and her sister Monkey Spirit, it is impossible not to see it.

"There are two, one is that I choose a girl to serve me, not to ask my grandmother to go home for me, and second, she has good etiquette and literacy, and the etiquette is more standard and better than others, her nails are round and neat, her fingers are slender and white, and her skin is delicate. Look at what she is looking like for the eldest girl and Sun Qian I just wanted, it looks like she hasn't eaten well for many months, her face and body are all fleshy, and she is tired from wind and frost.

This shows that Sanniang used to live a very good life, I guess it may be the family of the criminal official, maybe it is still a young lady, otherwise how can you look down on them, such a slave must not go home, and he has to cause trouble. The eldest girl is very honest and steady, Sun Qian loves her sister and has an idea in her heart but is not slippery, her eyes are firm and her personality is dull, I like honest people. ”

After Mingzhu finished speaking, Jia Xuan looked at the old lady's expression again, and sure enough, the old lady showed a look of appreciation and satisfaction, and then looked at the red and surprised expression on the third lady's face, she exclaimed in her heart, and couldn't help but praise it with a thumbs up in her heart.

I really didn't pay attention to these points, and it seems that I can't accept it.
