The carriage drove another half a cup of tea and stopped in front of an old mansion covering an area of more than 100 acres.

"Girl, get out of the carriage."

As soon as Lin Zhiqi got out of the carriage and stood still, a familiar sense of intimacy came to her face.

The memories of the original owner kept coming back, and here, "she" spent the happiest time of her life.

"Girl, don't cry, I'm going to have a headache again after a while." Wang's mother comforted.

Lin Zhiqi raised her hand and wiped her face, only to find that she was in tears. However, she is not averse to this involuntary reaction of the body.

This is the most real instinctive emotion of this body, since she has become this "Lin Zhiqi" living in this world, then, she must completely accept these, because this emotion also carries her thoughts about that time and space.

Yang Wu, who came here the day before to make various arrangements, saw that Lin Zhiqi had already collected her emotions, so she stepped forward and said with a smile, "Miss is all the way?" ”

"Alright, alright." Lin Zhiqi replied briskly, raised her feet and walked into the door.

"The yard where the young lady used to live has been cleaned up, did you go directly to rest?" Yang Wu pointed to his shoulder behind the shadow wall.

"I want to go first." Lin Zhiqi said, "You can tell me about this side of the matter!" ”

So, a small guy led the way in front, and the shoulder followed at the end, Yang Wu maintained a position one shoulder behind, and gave Lin Zhiqi a brief introduction to some of the situation of Anping's old house.

"Wu Heng has always been in charge here, just call him Lao Wu, he is the old man who followed Old Lady Lin when he was still alive, and now he is almost sixty, so he can be regarded as a pension here." Because every year the old man will come back to stay for a few days, so only the family and the little maid are left here. This time, the young lady came over, and found some people from Zhuangzi to come to help, they all volunteered to let their daughters come to be maids, although the temporary signing is only the employment contract, but when the young lady goes back, if she thinks who agrees, she will take it away, and then sign the deed of sale. ”

"Wouldn't that be nice?" Lin Zhiqi hesitated.

She remembered that Mother Wang said that because the people in Anping basically farm for the Lin family, they are actually quite self-sufficient in life, not wealthy, but food and clothing are absolutely no problem, and there should be no idea of selling children and daughters.

Yang Wu saw her concerns and explained, "The signed deeds are all living deeds, and when it comes to getting married, as long as their family says hello in advance, they can directly bring their daughters back, it's just a formality." ”

Lin Zhiqi nodded and didn't ask any more, she remembered that she seemed to have seen in some novels that the daughter of a farmer's family was sent to a big family to be a maid, and she would marry better in the future. Since everyone is willing to do so, she doesn't have any reason to refuse, after all, this society is like this.

Walking and stopping along the way, Lin Zhiqi also corresponded the bits and pieces in her memory with everything she saw.

Finally, after walking nearly a cup of tea, they came to Zhiyuan.

Zhiyuan is where Lin Zhiqi lived when she was a child. Although it has just entered spring, there are already some flowers and bonsai in the yard, and it feels like spring has been coming for a long time.

In addition to the flowers and plants, there were also a number of people standing in the courtyard, an old man with gray hair, three women, and a dozen or so little girls of seven or eight years old, the oldest of whom looked to be no more than fifteen or sixteen years old.

Lin Zhiqi was taken aback, she thought that at most she would add two or three maids, and there were so many people.

As soon as they walked in, the old man greeted him, presumably he was the old Wu.

It's just that what Lin Zhiqi didn't expect was that when this old Wu walked a few steps away from her, he knelt down directly in front of her.

Your sister, this will be a long life! Lin Zhiqi hurriedly avoided it.

Yang Wu hurriedly stepped forward to help, "Old Wu, what are you making trouble with!" Look, the young lady is scared of you. ”

"The old slave's fault is the old slave's fault, and the old slave didn't take a good look at the young lady and the little lady back then." As he spoke, Lao Wu burst into tears.

Seeing this, Mother Wang stepped forward to convince her: "Old Wu, it was an accident back then, and Miss didn't blame you for not." Don't talk about these sad things again, so as not to make the girl sad. ”

Hearing this, although Lin Zhiqi still didn't understand it very clearly, she probably guessed that it should refer to her injury and the death of her own mother, what happened that year? She suddenly became a little curious.

However, Lao Wu had been persuaded by Wang's mother and Yang Wu, and the group entered the main house of Zhiyuan.

Lin Zhiqi sat alone on the top, and Lao Wu began to introduce her to a few resident populations.

"This is the third daughter-in-law of my family, this is Wang Gui's family, and this is the eldest daughter-in-law of the Qin family." Lao Wu pointed to the three women and said, "They are responsible for the big and small meals in the house on weekdays, and the little lady will send someone to the kitchen to tell them what she wants to eat." ”

It turned out to be a chef! It's about building a good relationship. Lin Zhiqi smiled at them in a friendly manner, and the three of them were a little flattered.

Lao Wu's daughter-in-law stepped forward and said respectfully: "Say hello to the little lady, we usually make some home-cooked food, I am better at making noodles, Wang Gui's braised pork is the most delicious, and Qin Lao is the best at making fish." ”

As she spoke, she beckoned to the two little girls who looked stronger, "This is Erya and Fat Girl, who usually work in the kitchen." ”

Then, she walked up to the three older girls, "The three of them, I will take care of your daily life by the little lady's side in the future." You've come and seen Little Miss. ”

"My name is Momoko."

"My name is Hua Niu."

"My name is Brother Zhao."

After the three of them made a somewhat awkward salute and introduced themselves, Lin Zhiqi realized that Lao Wu's daughter-in-law was introducing personnel to her instead of Lao Wu, and hurriedly sat up straight and listened seriously.

However, after a circle, Lin Zhiqi found that she was a little blind in her name, that is, her name did not match her face.

The main reason is that the names of poor families are convenient, especially daughters, who are called "XX family" or "XX daughter-in-law" after marriage, and it is easy to recognize it, how convenient it is at home, how to call it, big girl, second girl, girl, eldest daughter, call Zhao brother, there is a brother on XX sister, and when the neighbor meets outside, it is also a few girls who are in the family.

Therefore, among the twelve little girls, there are three younger brothers, two second girls, two Niu Niu, and two who are directly called younger sisters.

Yes, all names have more than two people except Peach, Chubby, and Flower Girl.

Just when she was struggling with how to try to distinguish people again by size and age, Lao Wu's daughter-in-law smiled and said, "Little Miss, you might as well name these little girls again!" ”
