Chapter 14: Longtan? Ventured? (b)

Tianxin's philosophy has always been a good learner, and he believes that there is no accident in this world, only necessity. At this moment, the first thought that came to her mind was, what is the relationship between all this and Xiao Yiqing? Could it be that you caused the trouble? I'm afraid not, Tianxin won't overestimate himself so much, besides, if it's really related to himself, why would he ask, why are you here. She was secretly calm, but she was just a teenager of twelve or thirteen, and she was dizzy from crossing through.

"Young Master Xiao, Wanfu." Tianxin saw Mama Tian staring at her, and knew that this rule had to be spoken.

"What about you?" Xiao Yiqing still asked.

How do you say "slaves and maids are here ......"? Tianxin really doesn't know. Looking up at this Mama Tian, she must be able to explain a thing or two.

"Young Master, she came with Yabao, and every yard has to add people." Mama Tian really helped explain.

Xiao Yiqing remembered that on the second day of the Lantern Festival, he asked someone to check the life experience of this girl, and he knew that she was happy and happy in the West Market, why did she sell herself into slavery in a blink of an eye? But looking at the situation in front of me, I am afraid that I can't ask anything. only asked Mama Tian: "Where did she receive it?" ”

"It's not decided yet. It's not a big kitchen that runs out of water, and it doesn't stop all morning. Mama Tian bent her old waist to reply to Xiao Yiqing, which shows that this eldest young master is the master in the Xiao family.

"Well, I was about to go over and say I had died." Xiao Yiqing said as he paced towards the burning place.

Mama Tian followed behind Xiao Yiqing: "I heard that it is the silver crane in your house." The slave and maid don't know the details......"

"Who's in charge of the big kitchen now, and what's going on?" Xiao Yiqing's tone was obviously dissatisfied.

"It was only recently handed over to Mama Chen. The slave and maid took the words of the eldest lady and came to inquire about it. The fire was extinguished, and the slaves and maids had no time to examine it carefully. The slave and maid are derelict in their duties, and after a thorough investigation, they will definitely go to the eldest lady to confess their crimes. Mama Tian seemed to be trembling, but Tianxin intuitively felt that she was a scheming person, although she said something like confession, she was not really afraid in her heart, as if she was already confident.

"Brother Qing, don't worry, Wan'er will share your mung bean crisp." As she spoke, Wan'er took out a pack of dim sum and handed it to Xiao Yiqing. Xiao Yiqing frowned almost invisibly, if it weren't for Tianxin staring at him, he really ignored it.

"I don't like to eat, you can hide it and eat it yourself." Xiao Yiqing tried not to be too stiff in his tone, but he clearly showed distancing.

As he spoke, he arrived at the big kitchen that was on fire. When the first cadre saw the eldest young master and Mama Tian coming together, they all saluted separately. They were all subordinates, and they didn't see the master present. One of the mothers-in-law stepped forward and knelt down: "The slave maid just took over the errand in the kitchen, and this disaster happened, and the slave and maid begged the eldest young master and Mama Tian to punish her." "This is Mama Chen. Although she is a woman, she looks five big and three thick, she looks far less shrewd than Mama Tian, she is a little tough, she looks like a girl and a man, her clothes are clean, but there is no embellishment in the details, and her hair is only a bone hairpin.

Xiao Yiqing ignored her, and walked into the large kitchen that collapsed the small half, Mama Tian didn't say a word, and followed in, this Tianxin couldn't help but be curious, and took the opportunity to follow them, and that Wan'er naturally followed Tianxin.

The house on fire had not yet been cleaned, the beam at the door had collapsed, blocking the exit, and the charcoal on the floor was wet because of the watering. Xiao Yiqing stepped into the house, the shelves were crooked, all burned beyond recognition, the cabinets and the like were vaguely still in their original shapes, and the stove burned particularly badly, probably because of firewood. After going straight to the innermost part, a pile of debris staggered from side to side, I saw a corpse lying on its side, leaning between two benches, facing the wall, already charred......

Before she could take a closer look at the scene, Tianxin suddenly remembered Wan'er who came in, and immediately turned sideways to block Wan'er's sight and pushed her out of the kitchen with half her in her arms. If this kid sees a corpse or something, I'm afraid it will leave a shadow forever......

"Wan'er wants to see it too!" Wan'er was unwilling to be driven away and shouted.

"That's not what you're supposed to see. Get back to your house! Tianxin was a little annoyed, regretting that she didn't pay attention in advance, and she was also annoyed that so many people didn't stop this doll!

"That's not what you should see!" Xiao Yiqing's voice sounded coldly behind him.

"The slave just followed Mama Tian. The slave and maid did not know the way in this house, and they were afraid that they would lose it. Tianxin replied to him without humility or arrogance. Xiao Yiqing looked at the girl in front of him, he didn't feel like a girl at all, the word slave and maid came out of her mouth, and it was not a good match, which reminded him of that yen night again, this girl put his way several times, and the sly smile and shining eyes always made him feel special.

"Tell Yinhe's family to come and get the body. Make up a few more taels. Ask clearly, and clean up. You can't just use the small kitchen all these days. Let the field steward do the repairs. Xiao Yiqing confessed a few words, raised his feet and left. When this young man saw a dead man, he was as if he was commonplace, without the slightest surprise or fear, and he was even better than Tianxin in these two lives. Tianxin sweated slightly, he was not even as good as a teenager, he was really shocked just now, although he had seen the tragic condition of his parents, he couldn't see the corpse indifferent. Thinking of Wan'er who was grabbing again, he hurriedly followed: "Did the eldest young master leave with Miss Wan'er, after all, ...... here?"

"I'm here to play with you!" Wan'er is not only a chatter, but also a clingy ......

Xiao Yiqing paused, but still turned his head and said to Wan'er, "Follow me." Hearing this, Wan'er obediently let go of Tianxin, pouted and followed Xiao Yiqing, and unwillingly turned her head and grimaced at Tianxin, so she gave up.

After tossing for a long time, Tianxin was tired and hungry, still holding her urine, just now at the scene of the crime, her curiosity was supported, Xiao Yiqing and they left, her curiosity was satisfied, and the discomfort came up.

"Trouble Mama, can you send someone to take me to the toilet......" Mama Tian looked at the girl in front of her, speaking in a crepe manner, no matter how she looked at it, she didn't look like she would be sold to be a rough girl, but she didn't dare to disobey, and she couldn't help but have a snack, so she sent a third-class girl and took Tianxin to the thatched house.

After coming back, the outside of the big kitchen had been cleaned, and Mama Chen, who was originally kneeling, was no longer visible, and Mama Tian was waiting for Tianxin. Seeing her coming, he led her to walk, and said as he walked: "Yabao brought people to fill the outer courtyard today, I arranged for you to be a girl sweeping the garden, I see that you are also small, just in time to catch up with this water business, so I arranged for you to come to this kitchen to do errands, you have to be well-behaved, the kitchen is no better than other miscellaneous people, if you do well, you will not be hungry." The others all have a deed of sale, so you should first follow the steward to sign the deed of sale. ”

Mama Tian's words sounded heart-wrenching. She didn't have to have such an attitude towards a little girl, but she always felt that Tianxin was different from an ordinary girl, and she looked a little similar to Sister Wan'er, and her origin was unknown...... Selfishly thinking that maybe I can achieve first-class and second-class in the future, keep some relationships and make it easier to do things. This kind of mother-in-law is well-informed, and she always does not forget to take some benefits for herself.

When he saw Tian Steward, Tian Xin's original suspicion was confirmed, this Tian Steward was afraid that it was the man of Tian Mama's family, no wonder Tian Mama always looked like she was dependent, and the couple were both in the top positions in the house, so they were naturally a few points higher than ordinary people. Steward Tian didn't have the same blue eyes for Tianxin as Mama Tian, but just took the contract and asked Tianxin to press her handprint. Tianxin was not busy, so he took the contract and looked at it carefully, every time he signed a contract in his previous life, he was such a habit. Tian and his wife saw that this girl could actually read, and glanced at each other, the people sent in on weekdays are also literate, but they are all thirteen or fourteen years old, such a small doll reads the book seriously, this is the first time.

After reading it only once, Tianxin knew that she couldn't sign this contract, this was a death contract! She made another gesture and whispered to the steward of the field: "There is a steward of Laotian, this is a death contract, I was entered into the house, it was for a reason, I must not sign the death deed for this life, please ask the steward to trouble it, change it for a living deed." Tianxin wanted to ask, is there an annual contract, but naturally he doesn't dare to export this, this is ancient times.

"Most of the girls in the house are death deeds, which is not in accordance with the rules." Steward Tian said, squinting at his mother-in-law, Tianxin's words made him confused. Tianxin naturally deliberately said it secretly, Mama Tian's attitude made her feel that there was an opportunity, and this Tian steward seemed to know the details at all. Fishing in mixed waters is a must.

"Mama Tian, look, you have to help me with this." With a faint pleading, Tianxin tried her best to behave pitifully.

"Isn't there still a five-year living deed, sign it for her first." Mama Tian bit her lip and helped her man make a decision, anyway, the living deed was signed, and it was not a matter of words to transfer the death deed. She also wanted to get to the bottom first, "It's just that the silver taels of this living deed are much less." ”

"It's okay, there's Mama Lao, there's Lao in charge! Tianxin must remember this kindness. "I wanted to take a purse out to thank you, but after thinking about it, now I am here to be a rough girl, this kind of behavior may be self-defeating, so naturally I will thank you again later. Tianxin didn't expect to make a fortune with this little monthly money, five years is much better than a lifetime!

Although he knew that the monthly money was small, but when he saw the living deed that Tian Steward took, Tianxin still scolded secretly in his heart, and the people who were so picky about the door only gave half a month of hanging money! It's really not enough to stuff your teeth. The steward of this field spoke: "This is a lot of money in the living contract, and the first-class girl in the eldest lady's house is only a penny of monthly money." If you sign the death contract, you will have an extra silver tael! ”

Still not dead? With such a little money, I want to buy my aunt and grandmother for a lifetime, and it is whimsical. Tianxin was very indignant, but he didn't dare to show it on his face, bowed and thanked him, pressed his handprint, and reluctantly sold his youth for five years to this inexplicable Xiao family!
