Saying that, Chen Xiaoshu looked at the two sons behind him again, and said: "Although the tiger and leopard are fierce, they are easy to hurt people, so change it to Tang Cheng, Tang Xin, I hope you brothers keep the word integrity in mind." ”

Chen Xiaoshu finally looked at Tang Zhong's youngest daughter, the girl noticed Chen Xiaoshu's gaze, and subconsciously wanted to hide behind her mother, but for some reason she still stood in place and didn't dare to move.

Chen Xiaoshu said: "You will call it Qiuyi." ”

Qiu Yi nodded timidly, and then curtsied: "Qiu Yi thanks the eldest lady for her name." ”

In addition to this family, Boss Wang also recommended several little maids and maids to her.

Chen Xiaoshu looked at the girls standing in a row in front of him.

The youngest was no more than twelve or thirteen years old, and the older one was only fifteen or sixteen years old.

Chen Xiaoshu put down the teacup and looked at the eldest and said, "What's your name, how old are you this year, and what are you good at?" ”

The girl hurriedly knelt down and said, "The slave's name is Chunque, and she is sixteen this year, and the slave is the best at needlework." ”

The girl named Chunque lowered her head and didn't dare to look at Chen Xiaoshu.

"You look up." Chen Xiaoshu said.

Chunque was a little nervous, but remembered the teachings of Boss Wang's wife, and raised her head slightly.

Chunquesheng's small face is only delicate at best, and it can be seen that she is very nervous.

"Sixteen years old, are you married?"

Chen Xiaoshu asked.

Chunque hesitated when he heard this: "When the slave and maid were at home, their parents had ordered a family affair for the slave and maid, but then the slave and maid's family were in trouble, and this family affair was not counted. ”

Chen Xiaoshu nodded and did not speak, then looked at a girl next to her.

Sensing Chen Xiaoshu's gaze, the girl hurriedly knelt down, with a sweet smile on her face, and said: "The slave's name is Scarlet Niang, fourteen this year, she is the best at tea art, and she has never been engaged. ”

Chen Xiaoshu nodded and did not speak, and continued to point to a round-faced girl and asked, "How old are you this year and what is your name?" ”

"Hui, Hui, nobleman, slave maid, slave maid is thirteen this year, named Fang'er."

Chen Xiaoshu looked at these little maids, and then looked at the small girls in the back row.

Chen Xiaoshu looked at it and pointed to a black-faced little guy: "What is your name, how old are you this year, and who is there at home?" ”

The black-faced little guy knelt down and said: "The little one's name is Nanga, fourteen this year, and the little one is a refugee who fled back from outside the border, and he was separated from his family, and he still doesn't know whether he is alive or dead." ”

After Chen Xiaoshu asked one by one, the maid chose Chunque, Fang'er, and as for the little girl, in addition to the one called Nanjia, Chen Xiaoshu also chose one called the big dog.

Chen Xiaoshu was about to go out, but the scarlet girl suddenly rushed over and hugged Chen Xiaoshu's thigh and said, "Lady, why didn't the lady choose me?" ”

Chen Xiaoshu frowned, Boss Wang hurriedly motioned to his little guy to talk about the scarlet girl to get away, and Boss Wang stepped forward and arched his hand: "Mrs. Chen, I'm really sorry, this little girl hasn't been trained well." ”

Chen Xiaoshu shook his head indifferently and said, "It's okay." ”

Scarlet Niang was covered with her mouth, but a pair of eyes and movements showed that she was unwilling.

Chen Xiaoshu just glanced at her coldly, and then walked out of the door, the coachman brought the carriage over in advance, and Sister-in-law Tang stepped forward to hold Chen Xiaoshu's arm with a look of eyes, and gave her the strength to help her into the carriage.

The coachman glanced at them curiously, and saw that the group of people just quietly followed the carriage and did not say much.

All the way back to Gonghe Lane, Sister-in-law Zhang opened the door, and when she saw so many people outside the door, she also thought of something, and her face was a little delicate.

Because working here is not too tiring, the salary is a lot, and the owner will let her bring some things back every once in a while, and she still wants to continue to work.

But I didn't expect Chen Xiaoshu to buy so many subordinates in one go.

"This is Sister-in-law Zhang, who works as a domestic helper at home."

Chen Xiaoshu said a word and walked straight in.

Sister-in-law Zhang is just an ordinary woman, and she can't hide her emotions well, and her unhappy mood is quite obvious.

Tang Zhong bowed slightly to Sister-in-law Zhang when he heard this, and then said to the coachman: "Please ask this little brother to put the carriage back first, and I will ask the eldest lady how we should arrange it." ”

Chen Xiaoshu returned to the main hall and sat down, but he kept paying attention to what was going on outside.

I saw Tang Zhong come in with a group of subordinates, and bowed to Chen Xiaoshu: "Dare to ask the eldest lady how to arrange for us." ”

Chen Xiaoshu looked at the people who were a little worried, and said, "Tang Zhong is in the front yard first, and Tang Zhong's family is watching in the backyard and kitchen." ”

Chen Xiaoshu said and looked at the small ones, and said: "Nanjia changed his name to Chen De, you and Tang Cheng will run errands with the uncle, the big dog changed his name to Chen Yi, and took care of it in the front yard with Tang Xin, Chunque changed his name to Qiu Nong, followed me, led the monthly money of the second-class maid, Fang'er changed her name to Qiuluo, and did some sewing and sweeping work in the backyard with Qiuyi, and received the monthly money of the third-class maid." ”

"Yes."

Everyone saluted in unison.

Chen Xiaoshu continued: "Tang Zhong, you first took the little guys to the inverted room in the front yard to settle down, and you of Tang Zhong's family also took a few of them to the back ear room in the backyard to settle down, and when they are settled, come to me to receive the fabric, and make a spring dress and a summer dress for each person." ”

"Yes, thank you, lady."

When everyone heard that there were new clothes, their hearts jumped.

Tang Zhong came out of the main hall, although Chen Xiaoshu didn't say it explicitly, but Tang Zhong felt that Chen Xiaoshu was testing himself.

Whether you can seize this opportunity or not depends on now.

Thinking of this, he grabbed his mother-in-law's sleeve and said in a low voice: "After a while, we will receive the fabric, and if we don't take the little girls to stay up late and light the lamp, we have to make a dress for everyone." ”

Tang Zhong's family naturally understood, and said: "Don't worry, tomorrow will definitely not make people sloppy and sloppy appear in front of the lady." ”

After Tang Zhong finished instructing his mother-in-law, he said to his eldest son Tang Cheng: "The eldest lady asked you to follow the uncle because she took a fancy to you, you kid must work hard and serve the uncle well, did you hear?" ”

Tang Cheng nodded again and again when he heard this: "Dad, don't worry, I know that I will definitely serve my uncle well." ”

Tang Xin said on the side: "That is, the eldest lady bought grandma, but she never arranged work for grandma, this is clearly kindness, we must serve the eldest lady and the uncle well." ”

Tang Zhong's family nodded approvingly, and they all agreed with Tang Xin's words.

The grandmother of the Tang family is already sixty years old, her hair is all white, and her body is slumped, even if Chen Xiaoshu is hard-hearted, she can't bear to arrange work for such an old man.

Even if she is raising Chen Xiaoshu for nothing, she is also willing, not to mention that it is not for nothing, her sons, daughters-in-law, grandchildren and grandchildren are now working for Chen Xiaoshu!

Chen Xiaoshu turned out the fabrics from the warehouse, all of them were fine muslin, comfortable and wearable to wear, the clothes of the little maids were mainly gray, and the maids' clothes were mainly light green.
