Chapter 98: Jealousy
"Smack-" With a sound, Lin Ruan's hand slapped on the back of Lin Chunni's hand.
Lin Chunni was slammed back with her hand, and she wanted to cry when she reacted, but when she saw Lin Ruan's gloomy face, she immediately swallowed her voice back.
"Xiuxiu has already said that she doesn't want to play with you guys, can't you hear me? are all little girls from rural families, what qualifications do you have to let Xiuxiu be a maid for you? ”
Lin Chunni wanted to refute, but Lin Ruan glanced at her coldly, and she immediately couldn't say a word.
At this moment, Liu Ya came out of the house, respectfully bowed her head and said, "Big girl, I've cleaned up." ”
Lin Ruan nodded: "After cleaning up, let's take the second girl back over there." ”
"Yes."
Liu Ya turned to Xiuxiu and blessed her body: "Second girl, please come with the slave." ”
Xiuxiu was a little confused, after all, she was a little girl from the countryside, how could she have seen Liu Ya do this?
Lin Ruan helped her tidy up her clothes, "Go, Liu Ya is your maid, and she will play with you and do things for you in the future." ”
Xiuxiu was a little surprised: "Sister, will I be like a girl in the landlord's family in the future?" ”
The landlord is a small landlord in this township, with hundreds of acres of land at home and a business shop in the county, so the life of the family is very beautiful, and the children are equipped with a small girl.
However, the family style of the landlord's family is not very good, and he is very harsh to the maids, and it is common to be beaten and scolded, so the farmers in the nearby villages scare the children, and they always say, "If you are disobedient, you will be sold to the landlord's house as a girl." ”
Xiuxiu had also seen the daughter of the landlord of the field go out with a ring before, so she was impressed, so she took her as an example.
The corners of Lin Ruan's mouth twitched, "Xiuxiu, you can't learn from the girl from the landlord's family." ”
The child has no concept of right or wrong, and she doesn't want that Xiuxiu to refer to the girl of the landlord's family and develop that unreasonable appearance.
can't be everyone's girlfriend, but at least it has to be stronger than Xiaojia Jasper.
Xiuxiu thought for a moment, nodded, turned to Liu Ya and said, "Sister Liu Ya, don't worry, I won't hit anyone." Let's go back to the old house. ”
As she spoke, Xiuxiu stepped forward and grabbed Liu Ya's hand and led her out.
Liu Ya pursed the corners of her mouth and laughed.
Lin Ruan turned his head to look at the two sisters who were completely stunned, and said with a half-blind eye: "There's nothing else, just hurry back to your own house, I'm going to lock the door." ”
Lin Xing'er was so frightened from beginning to end that she didn't dare to say anything, and when she heard Lin Ruan say this, she quickly pulled her sister's clothes, and the sisters turned around and ran.
After leaving the yard, Lin Xing'er asked Lin Chunni, who had not yet come back to her senses, "Sister, does Xiuxiu's stinky girl really have a ring?" ”
Lin Chunni nodded stunned.
"She's a cheap girl with no mother, why can she have a girl's ring?"
Lin Chunni was stunned for a long time before muttering: "Just because she has a good sister." ”
The children of poor families are in charge early, even if Lin Chunni is only eight years old, she already knows a lot of things, although she may not understand how deeply she understands, but she can also understand some general things.
Lin Xing'er was still young, and her thoughts were relatively simple, so she stomped her feet and said, "What's so good about her sister?" It's just a child daughter-in-law who people look down on, why are they better dressed than us, and there are also maid rings. Only the young ladies of the landlord's family can have a ring, and they are not landlords. ”
"What's the ring?"
Lin Xing'er's voice was not small, and what she said was heard by their mother and grandson, who were working in the house.
"Chunni, Xing'er, what are you talking about? Whose maid ring? ”
Lin Xing'er had a fast mouth, and ran into the house in a few steps to learn the things about Xiuxiu's maid ring.
Sun was surprised and bought Yahuan, which was as rare as the sun coming out of the west in the eyes of the farmers who only sold their daughters as Yahuan.
When the strangeness was over, Sun hooked the corners of his mouth again, and said sourly:
"This Lin Ruan, who used to look like a sensible and reliable person, why has he become like this now? That's how much money I can make, so I learned from others to buy a ring. I don't want to think about it, if there is one more mouth in the family, I can eat a lot of food that year. In the future, don't be able to raise a Yahuan, and sell people again, that's a loss of adults. ”
After saying that, the more she thought about it, the more uncomfortable she felt, she used to be such a child daughter-in-law who had settled down in a broken household, but now she not only started to build a house, but also spent money to buy a girl, which made her feel angry no matter how she thought about it, and she had to find a few people to talk to.
So, Sun took half of the soles of his shoes, carried the thread, and told the two girls to watch the door, and then went out to talk to someone.
It didn't take long for Lin Ruan to buy Yahuan, and it began to spread in the village.
Lin Ruan didn't know about this, and even if he knew, he wouldn't care.
She and these villagers have never been on the same level, and what she does doesn't need to be understood by those villagers, let alone considered what those villagers think.
After returning home, Lin Ruan began to plan for money.
The money used to sell ginseng was still one hundred taels after the purchase, and it took about forty or fifty taels to build a house, plus the money for all kinds of furniture, at least sixty or seventy taels to prepare.
At the end of the day, she has no money.
She still owes the money shopkeeper a hundred taels of silver.
Now that people have bought it, then her store should also be opened as much as possible, and now that the weather is getting cooler, it is a good time to open.
There are still a lot of things to be added to the store, and the second floor also needs to be refurbished, and all these aspects cost money.
She'll have to go up the mountain again to trouble the big tiger.
It's really a matter of money when it's spent.
In the evening, when Lin Zhong came back from the field, when he saw the willow buds, he was also stunned for a long time. knew that it was the ring that Lin Ruan bought for Xiuxiu, and pulled Lin Ruan to talk about it.
"We are the Zhuang family, how can we use the ring? Ah Ruan, if there is one more person in this family, the expenses will be a lot more throughout the year, which is too uneconomical. Listen to my father's words, return her tomorrow, our family doesn't like this. ”
Lin Ruan said patiently: "I bought everything, if I return it, the people in the village may laugh at me." Besides, it's just a little girl, how much food can she eat? Isn't one more person in the family equivalent to one more laborer? In the future, when I go to the mountains to hunt, I can keep Xiuxiu at home with peace of mind, isn't it good? ”
When Lin Zhong heard this, he couldn't find an excuse to refute it, but he always felt unsteady. They are authentic dealers, how can any dealers buy Yahuan?
But now that Ah Ruan is in charge of everything in the family, and the money to buy Yahuan is also earned by herself, he doesn't have much to say, for fear that Ah Ruan will feel uncomfortable.
Before the meal, Lin Zhong watched Liu Ya follow Lin Ruan and run back and forth, serving the food and rice, so busy that his feet did not touch the ground, and he also took the time to take care of Xiuxiu, he was very sensible, and he felt a little better.
It seems that it is also a good thing to have a little girl at home who helps with things.
At least Ah Ruan has a foil.
