Zhulan thinks it's very good, there are just two little ones in her family, the girl follows Xuehan, and the little boy follows Mingyun, of course, she only follows first, and whether she will continue to follow in the future depends on the understanding of the two children.

Zhulan asked Yazi, "How much silver?" ”

Zhulan knew in her heart that some slaves had relatives and friends at home, and when something happened, someone ransomed them, and those who were left behind were either unrelated or cut off from their relatives, which was better and could avoid a lot of trouble.

Yazi looked happy, "Madam, these are all slaves from the official family, although they are older, the price cannot be cheap, this family is eighty taels." ”

Zhulan pursed her lips and didn't say a word, her teeth were looked at uncomfortably, "Seventy-five taels is the lowest." ”

Zhulan really didn't understand the price, and waited until her teeth bit the price before she said, "Their slave contract needs you to exchange it, and I won't pay the money." ”

Yazi paused and said, "Yes, please come here." ”

Zhulan and Zhou Shuren followed Yazi, this side is the official messenger is in charge, and there is no need to go to the yamen to handle the formalities, there is a special place to go through the formalities here, and they handed over the silver in exchange for the deed.

Zhulan's family also has slaves, Zhulan and Zhou Shuren didn't take anyone home, they took someone to the hospital first, and let the doctor take a look, but fortunately, the old lady was malnourished and not well-rested, not sick.

Zhulan went to buy some gray and dark fabrics again, and then took people home.

After returning home, Zhulan arranged for the family to be in the empty house in the front yard, these slaves who were escorted and sold by the official messenger had nothing on their bodies except for what they were wearing, Zhulan found the old quilt at home, and some old wooden barrels for the boss to send over.

There is firewood in the front yard, there is also a kitchen in the front yard, boiling water and washing by yourself, there are fabrics, needles and threads, Zhulan is not in a hurry to see people, and the family is packed up.

Li Shi didn't mention how excited, "Mother, do we really have a slave in our family?" ”

Zhulan, "Yes." ”

Li's heart is beautiful, "Mother, will I be the eldest wife in the future?" ”

Zhulan, "........ You're the eldest lady, how about me? ”

Li asked knowingly, "Mother is naturally an old lady." ”

Zhulan, "........"

She knew that it was this title, she maintained it obviously and didn't look old, yes, she bought it back, and the title at home was naturally going to change, in order to distinguish it, she really had to add an old word, her heart was stuffed, and it hurt to look at Li's head!

Li Shi saw her mother-in-law close her eyes, she didn't understand what she said wrong, "Mother." ”

Zhulan closed her eyes and pointed to the door, "Get out." ”

Li shut up, her mother-in-law has a little mood again, she found that her mother-in-law has a little mood from time to time, just shut up and be obedient at this time.

At lunchtime, Zhulan asked Li to send some cakes and vegetables to the front yard.

When Zhulan got up for lunch break, the family she bought was already standing in the backyard, and the family had changed into newly made clothes and cleaned up.

Zhulan sat on the chair brought by the boss, raised her eyebrows and looked at the newly made clothes, from the time she came back with someone to the present, two and a half hours before and after, five hours, and listening to the boss, this family has been standing for almost half an hour.

That is to say, within two hours, four hours, in addition to the time of boiling water and bathing, you can also make clothes that fit eight bodies.

Although Zhulan didn't pay attention to the front yard, everyone who should know also knows that everyone in the family has a clear division of labor!

Zhulan opened her mouth and said, "Who is good at female red?" ”

The older old lady stepped forward and said, "Madam, I am good at stubble and female popularity, and later I went to Zhuangzi to be a mother-in-law when I got old." ”

Zhulan snorted and continued, "You all told me one by one what work you were responsible for before? ”

The old man took a step forward, "I used to raise horses, and I was a gatekeeper in the Zhuangzi when I was old." ”

The son continued: "I drove the car for the master's house. ”

Daughter-in-law, "I first washed vegetables in the kitchen, and then learned needlework and did needlework. ”

The two older boys, the older 19-year-old were the horse boys, and the younger 17-year-olds were the errand boys.

There are two little dolls left, the little girl has been learning the rules since she was ten years old, and she is ready to be a third-class girl, and the boy is also learning the rules, and it has not been arranged yet.

When Zhulan heard it, none of this family was in the center of power, and this family was not a particularly smart person, but it was a duty.

What the Zhou family needs now is someone who does his duty.

Zhulan asked, "What's your name?" ”

The old man stepped forward, "The villain's surname is Ma, and the name was given by the original owner's family, Ma Qiang." ”

The old lady stepped forward, "I'm Ma Wei." ”

Two husbands and wives, the man's name is Ma February, and the woman's girl who has sold herself since she was a child, has no surname and the name is also taken by the original owner's family, Xinghua.

The children did not say their names.

Old man Ma stepped forward and said, "Please also ask my wife to name the child." ”

Zhulan was silent, she really accepted the Ma family by taking the name, which is very important to the Ma family, looking at the expectant eyes of several children of the Ma family, Zhulan scolded the ancient times of the pit father in her heart, and still gave the name.

The surname has not changed, Zhulan will not take any name, she is not a talented girl, according to the twenty-four solar terms, the nineteen-year-old boy Lichun, the seventeen-year-old rain, the ten-year-old girl is stunned, and the eight-year-old boy is the spring equinox.

Then Zhulan arranged for several people.

Zhulan said according to the abilities of these people: "We are going to the capital to catch the exam, this time with February, apricot blossoms, Lichun and stunning, Ma Qiang and Ma Wei will stay with rain and vernal equinox." ”

Dong pressed the corners of her upturned mouth, although her mother-in-law left an old lady, at least she was a slave, and she finally didn't have to work by herself.

The Ma family accepted the arrangement of the main family well, although the new main family is not an official body, but the new main family is a family, and it looks like they are going to enter Beijing to catch the exam.

If the new owner has a jinshi in his family, their family is still an official slave, which is much better than being bought by a businessman, and the anxiety in the hearts of the Ma family is long gone, and only joy remains.

The Ma family is not stupid, the new master's family has not made a fortune, they are the first batch of slaves, as long as they perform well, they will definitely be reused.

For dinner in the evening, the Ma family cooked it themselves in the front yard, and Ma Wei's cooked it.

Zhulan's family is the Li family's cooking, and the apricot blossoms are here to wash the vegetables, and the Dong family and Xuehan don't have to do it anymore.

The Ma family adapted for two days, and the day for Zhulan and Zhou Shuren to set off also came, this time hiring five carriages, Zhulan and Zhou Shuren sat in one, Zhou Shuren didn't want Xuehan to be a light bulb, Xuemei and Li took Yulu and Jingzhen to sit in one.

Boss Zhou took Mingteng to sit in one, and the remaining two cars were loaded with quilts and other luggage, and the other was loaded with mountain goods and food.

Ma February, Xinghua and Xinghua take care of one, and Lichun takes care of one.

Wu Ming only hired a carriage, and he didn't bring much luggage, so Zhao Bo hired more carriages.

The Zhao family has a house in the capital, this time Zhao Bo did not go by himself, Zhao Bo took six people to the capital, and there was a lot of luggage, and Zhao Bo hired four carriages by himself.

On the contrary, Wu Ming was able to use people, and Wu Ming only bought a small servant to follow.

There are two convoys that go to the capital, and the convoy that went to the capital this time is not very many, there are no dragged trucks, and the speed of driving is very fast.

This time I went to the capital not in a special hurry, I had enough time during the day, and I would stop and rest in advance at night.
