Chapter 115: New Members
By the time Xiao Ming and An Po came out, Yi's mother was already waiting in the yard with her son Yi Feng, grandson Yi Xuan, and the little girl Li'er, each carrying a burden in their hands, as if they had already known the result.
Seeing Xiao Ming, Yi's mother took a step forward first, and only stopped when Xiao Ming was three steps away, and curtsied: "Say hello to Miss." ”
The other three followed, saluting their new master.
"Mother Yi, please get up." Xiao Ming hurriedly helped Yi's mother to stand up, and asked Yi Feng and the others to get up: "You don't have to salute like this in the future, we don't have so many rules in our family, we will be a family in the future, as long as I do things for me loyally, I will not treat anyone badly." “
"Yes." Despite this, Yi's mother still adhered to etiquette and stood aside in an orderly manner, her face was calm, and she couldn't see her joy or anger, while Yi Feng on the side was as silent as ever, deathly silent, and the little girl Li'er and Yi Xuan looked at the young new master curiously.
"Sister, we're back." Xiao Han and Xia Xiaoba came in with two small ones, each carrying a lot of big and small things in their hands, it turned out that when Xiao Ming and An Po were talking in the house, Xia Xiaoba took Xiao Han and the two small ones to buy materials when he had nothing to do, Xia Xiaoba bought some bird's nest for the Song family, he bought a few more boxes, in order to honor and please his own mother, there are a lot of miscellaneous things.
Xiao Han bought all books, a thick stack, and he almost blocked his face in front of him, and he had to turn his face to see the road ahead.
Of course, there are two small ones that buy all things to eat, what cakes, dates, everything, Xiao Yu also handed the peach crisp in his hand to his aunt to eat: "Auntie, this peach crisp is delicious, you can taste it." “
"It's too sweet, aunt don't want it, don't eat too much, be careful of worms on your teeth." Xiao Ming refused, and went into the city today to eat too many sweets for them, and she was really worried about their teeth.
"My aunt I know, if she has worms, she will have to pick out her teeth, I only eat this little, these are all bought for grandma and Sister Yunling." Xiao Yu finished the peach crisp in his hand and showed his aunt the three packs of dim sum in his hand.
Aunt Yi raised her eyes and looked at the three packets of dim sum each of the two small ones in their hands, on which there was a diamond-shaped red paper mark posted by the most famous pastry shop in Pingcheng, and a pack of dim sum cost two taels of silver, and Aunt Yi just skimmed it lightly and looked away.
"Brother, you eat." Xiao Yu took out the pastry and handed it to Yi Xuan and Li'er who were standing on the side.
"Thank you, young master." Li'er happily took a bite and didn't forget to speak: "It's delicious." “
She had never eaten such a delicious pastry.
Yi Xuan waited for his grandmother to nod before catching it with both hands.
"Thank you, young master."
"You're welcome, I've got a lot more here." Xiao Yu's eyes narrowed with laughter.
"Good sister, you can go with peace of mind, your good days are still ahead." Before leaving, An Po held Yi's mother's hand and was happy for her.
"Come back and see me when you're free."
"Hmm." Yi's mother didn't say much, and she changed her master and didn't know how to live in the future, I hope it's good! She doesn't care, she just wants her children and grandchildren to be well.
An Po looked at Yi's mother with an indescribable feeling in her heart, she originally thought that she was more pitiful than herself, but when she thought about it, she was the most pitiful one, she had children and grandchildren, and now she followed Xiao Ming; But what about her? There is nothing, the man is gone, the son is dead, and she lives alone with her silver, so her good life is still to come?
An Po looked at the pear eating pastries on the side, ready to tell her a few words, but looking at this girl, she was so angry, hating iron is not strong, this dead girl her mouth has not stopped, in a short moment, a bag of two taels of silver pastries was eaten by her alone, two taels, worthy of the countryman's chewing for half a year.
Why was she unlucky enough to meet this greedy girl, sold it and was returned, and lost the silver, was she sent by God to treat her?
This time I finally sent it out, but don't come back.
"You dead girl, give me some restraint, and if you are sent back, I will sell you far away, and you will never be able to eat." An Po threatened in a low voice, and her ears were mentioned, but she only roared in her ears.
"Uh-huh." Li'er wrapped a pastry in her mouth, and still held a piece in her hand, eating happily, listening to An Po's words and nodding like pounding garlic, only she knows whether she listens to it or not.
Xiao Ming rejected An Po's proposal to send a carriage to send her, it is difficult to repay the debt with good money, it is better to buy another carriage than to owe favors, although it is a little late, you can't buy ready-made, you can also rent a carriage to go back, why owe favors.
On the way to the horse market, Xiao Ming and Yi's mother walked at the end, Xiao Ming looked at Yi's mother all the way without saying a word, thinking that she must be unhappy in her heart, suddenly changed the master's house, and it was such a young master, she must not be able to adapt to it for a while in her heart.
"Mother Yi." Xiao Ming called.
"Miss, please speak." Mother Yi turned to look at the little master beside her.
"No need to be polite, just call me Xiao Ming." In ancient times, it was a very noble title, but in modern times, it has gradually evolved into a different meaning, and she will recall it every time she hears it.
"Etiquette is not costly, no matter how good the girl is to us, we can't forget the duty of a slave, the girl is the master and I am the servant, you can't call the girl by her name." Yi's mother noticed Xiao Ming's resistance to Miss and immediately changed her name to the girl.
I have to say that the girl's title is good, and she shouted to Xiao Ming's heart.
"Mother Yi, I'll just say it directly, we are a well-off family, we have assets, we are not a rich and noble family, and we may not be as rich and glorious as you used to be, but I, Xiao Ming, promise here, that I will never treat anyone who is loyal to our Xiao family."
Xiao Ming's reassurance, Yi's mother was very moved, all she wanted was to be stable and have a place to live in this situation, Xiao Ming could attach so much importance to her and not dislike her son, what reason did she not contribute her loyalty.
"Since the girl can be so open to us, we must do our best to be allegiant."
Xiao Ming pursed her lips and smiled, and said: "Mother Yi doesn't have to be so restrained in the future, our peasant family doesn't have so many rules and regulations, there are only me, Xiaohan, Yu'er, and Godmother in the family, two children Wang Tiandong and his sister Yunling, that's Xia Xiaoba, he is our neighbor." Xiao Ming said and pointed to Xia Xiaoba, who was walking in front.
"I hope that Mother Yi can treat us as her own home in the future, and don't dislike it."
The girl laughed. The population is so simple, how can she be disgusted.
"There are only 100 acres of land in the family now, three plots of land are planted with vegetables, two plots are planted with chrysanthemums, and the rest are all planted with fruit trees and medicinal herbs.
