Li Ziyu took the handkerchief and saw that although the handkerchief was a coarse cloth, the pink lotus embroidered on it was lifelike.

A lotus flower on the top stands on the green lotus leaf, as if it has life, and wants to fly away in the air.

At this time, my aunt came over, and when she saw this handkerchief, she exclaimed, "What an embroiderer!" Not bad! ”

Cai Ling bowed down and thanked: "Mrs. Xie praises!" ”

Li Ziyu and her aunt glanced at each other, nodded and said, "Okay, you can stand over." ”

Cai Ling bowed down again and said, "Miss Xie!" ”

picked four big girls, and Li Ziyu was not ready to pick again. She discussed it with her aunt and decided to give each of her younger brothers a little maid, and her aunt and her side used the four maids she had just picked out, and then how to match them when they went home.

Also, do rough work and pick some older, stronger men and women, and better yet, if you have a family.

So, Li Ziyu told Wang Yapo what she meant, and Wang Yapo happily recommended three families to them and asked them to come over to meet them immediately.

The first to come was a couple with three children, dressed in coarse cloth shirts with patches on top of them, and shoes on their feet with almost bare toes. Everyone was full of vegetables and sluggishness, and it looked like they had just been sold.

However, the man of this house is tall and strong, and he knows at a glance that he is a good worker.

At this time, Wang Yapo came over and handed Li Ziyu a piece of information, which recorded all the circumstances of the three families in detail.

After Wang Yapo's introduction, the male owner of the first family to come over was called Lin Guotian. Chinese New Year's Eve is thirty-four years old. The daughter-in-law, known as Sister-in-law Lin, is Chinese New Year's Eve two years old today, with a yellow face and rotten muscles. The body is thin and weak, and at first glance, it looks like he has just recovered from a serious illness.

There are three children in the family, the eldest daughter Lin Sisi, who is fifteen years old this year, is quite tall and looks beautiful and quiet. The second son, Lin Zhu, is thirteen years old this year, and his body may be pumping. Appears tall and thin. The youngest son, Lin Qiu, is ten years old this year, short in stature, and looks like he is seven or eight years old.

The three siblings all looked malnourished. Especially the smallest one, which can be blown away by a gust of wind.

Lin Guotian's family is from the south, because the south flooded the fields and houses last year, and they can't survive in their hometown. took his wife and children all the way to the north. Originally, I could barely make ends meet by working part-time jobs on my own. But after the year, the youngest son and daughter-in-law both fell ill and contracted a cold, and they had no money for treatment, so they ruthlessly sold their whole family.

Li Ziyu asked the Lin family and his wife a few words, and learned that Lin Guotian was good at farming, especially mountains and forests, fruit trees, and when his daughter-in-law cooked good vegetables, he agreed to buy their family.

After the Lin family stood aside, the second family dragged the family over.

Judging from the information, the family's surname is Xue. The man's name is Xue Manchu, and he is seven years old Chinese New Year's Eve today. Sister-in-law Xue is Chinese New Year's Eve and 6 years old.

They are also three children, the eldest son is named Xue Jiawang, who is twenty years old this year. The second son's name is Xue Jiacai, and he is eighteen years old this year. The youngest daughter's name is Xue Lingling, and she is fourteen years old this year.

This family, both adults and children, is very strong, and they are very healthy at first glance.

This made Li Ziyu a little puzzled. If the family is healthy and healthy, with hands and feet, why sell themselves?

If you sell yourself here, you will leave a stain that cannot be washed away, men cannot be selected for the imperial examination, and their status is also the status of slaves, and the next generation that will be burdened by marrying a wife and having children is also a slave.

A woman can only choose the same slave object in marriage, and her children will also be slaves in the future.

Could it be that this family has any secrets or grievances?

Li Ziyu groaned and didn't speak for a long time.

Xue Manchu saw that Li Ziyu didn't ask them as usual, and his heart was raised. He glanced at Wang Yapo pleadingly, and motioned to say good things.

Wang Yapo sighed, leaned in front of Li Ziyu and said, "Miss Li, this Xue Manchu has no criminal record, it's just that his family offended the big landlord in the local area, and the family couldn't afford to provoke it, so they escaped." This family is all good players, and all of them can take the lead. ”

Li Ziyu asked a few more questions about this family, and from one question and one answer, she learned that this family is honest people, who can not only plant crops in the field, but also drive a car to be a young man or something, so he agreed to buy them.

The Xue family kowtowed gratefully and stood aside.

The third family that came over turned out to be a sister and brother, the elder sister looked old and twenty-seven or eighteen years old but not married, and the younger brother looked like he was fourteen or fifteen years old. The two siblings were silent, and they didn't even dare to raise their heads, so they just stood there.

My sister's name is Su Nian, and my younger brother's name is Su Sheng. Not to mention, the sisters and brothers look quite similar, they both have long eyebrows and clear eyes. If it weren't for the bad complexion, the appearance of the sister and brother would be the dragon and phoenix among people.

After inquiry, Li Ziyu learned that Su Nian's needlework was good, and Su Sheng still knew a few words, so he agreed to buy them and let them stand over.

After buying these people, Li Ziyu and her aunt bought five rough mothers-in-law and five strong men to do rough work at home. I also bought five clever boys, aged between seven and ten.

These people, the four big maids each have five taels of silver, the three families, the Lin family and the Xue family have twenty taels of silver, the Su family sisters and brothers have fifteen taels of silver, the five rough mothers-in-law have three taels of silver each, the five strong men have five taels of silver each, and the five little guys have three taels of silver each, adding up to a total of one hundred and thirty taels of silver.

Li Ziyu gave all the silver to Wang Yapo, and Wang Yapo gave Li Ziyu the deed of sale of these people. The contracts of these slaves have been kept in the official office, and if it is not for the master to redeem them, then they will be slaves for life.

Li Ziyu and Wang Yapo settled each other's silver taels and the deed of sale, and then took the slaves they bought out of Wang Yapo's house and prepared to go home.

However, thinking that there was no place to place them at home, Li Ziyu took them back to the shop he bought today.

On the way, Li Ziyu bought 31 sets of bedding at the cloth village along the street, and 31 straw straw at the grocery store, and asked them to send them to her newly bought shop.

Their group amazed the eyes of everyone along the street, the team was so spectacular, it was difficult not to get people's attention.

Li Ziyu also knew that she seemed to be too high-profile, so she didn't stop on the street anymore and went straight to the shop.

When he arrived at the shop and opened the door, Li Ziyu asked the newly bought slaves to come in, stood in the shop and said a few simple words, and by the way, let them recognize the master of the family.

Li Ziyu first introduced her aunt and cousin, and she and her younger brothers also let all the slaves visit one by one.

In the slaves' "I have seen my aunt and grandmother, I have seen Miss Cousin, I have seen the eldest lady, I have seen the second young master, I have seen the third young master, I have seen the fourth young master, I have seen the fifth young master, and I have seen the sixth young lady", and the slaves finally got to know the masters seriously.

In the end, Li Ziyu pointed at Wang Qiuyue and said, "This is Aunt Chai, and she is also my elder, I hope you will also treat her as a master." ”

So, the slaves shouted in unison, "Meet Aunt Chai!" ”

Wang Qiuyue didn't expect the eldest lady to introduce herself like this, she was both surprised and moved, and hurriedly said: "Don't be polite, everyone, I am also serving the masters, but I am a little earlier than you, if you don't understand anything in the future, just communicate with each other." ”
