After speaking, he looked at Mei Xiaotong with tears in his eyes.

Mei Xiaotong had a good impression of Yang Zaizhao at the beginning, but now that she has fallen to this point, Yu Yuli can pull her hand and ignore it.

It's just a matter of a few taels of silver.

However, some things still need to be made clear in advance: "If you want me to buy it, you can!" I'll give you two options. You think about it carefully and then answer me, one, I will buy you, and then I don't want your deed, and I will send you and the deed to your third sister together. Second, I bought you, you will be my person in the future, and the life of the family is in my hands, and what fathers and sisters and brothers and sisters are behind our family, can you do it? ”

Yang opened her mouth to answer again, but Mei Xiaotong stopped her: "Don't be in a hurry to answer first, think clearly." I'll give you a day, you've figured it out thoroughly, you've made a decision, and you can't regret it! ”

Yang Zaizhao looked at Mei Xiaotong with some puzzlement, looking at her serious face, and then he understood that Mei Xiaotong really asked her to think about it, not a joke.

Yang Zaizhao was a smart girl after all, and she seemed to have smacked something, nodded silently, and was no longer in a hurry to express her position.

Mei Xiaotong got up at this time and pulled Mrs. Wang to the side to say a few words to you.

From the time Mrs. Wang heard that the girl knew the showy lady, she guessed that she was afraid that a showy lady would buy this girl today.

Sure enough, I didn't shout a high price at the moment, I bought it for five taels of silver, and these children ate, drank, and trained for ten taels of silver.

Mei Xiaotong happily took out the silver and took the deed.

Mrs. Wang likes such a patron, and she is not inked.

Huan happily took the money and went back with the rest of the girls.

Mei Xiaotong then instructed Mrs. Wu and Mrs. Ding to boil water and let Yang take a bath again, change into clean clothes, and no previous things were needed.

For the time being, I will live in a room with Mrs. Wu and Mrs. Ding.

Mrs. Wu and Mrs. Ding listened to that voice before, and the newly bought little girl seemed to know her own lady, and she had a bottom in her heart.

didn't take a big one, but took the opportunity to give Yang Zaizhao a bath and get clothes, and chatted with Yang Zaizhao for a few words, thinking about the little girl's words, but I didn't expect Yang Zaizhao to be tight-mouthed, so he just didn't make a sound.

Mrs. Wu and Mrs. Ding became more and more afraid to underestimate her.

When she washed up and changed into clean clothes, Mrs. Ding took a bath for Yang Zaizhao, she saw that she was pitifully thin, her hair was yellow, and the amount was insufficient.

When asked, he said that he was twelve years old, but he looked less than ten years old.

But he moved a little soft-hearted, and cooked a pot of porridge for Yang Zaizhao, they are subordinates, although the master is filial piety, but they are not eaten.

Therefore, he boiled a pot of porridge for Yang Zaizhao,

Yang Zaizhao has been so old since he was born, except for the taste that Yang Zhaodi can occasionally taste after marrying into Yingzigou, he has never eaten it in the Yang family.

Especially such a delicious porridge, one person who is in the wind and clouds will kill a pot.

The sallow little face is a little bloody.

In the back room, Mrs. Zhang was asking about Yang Zaizhao, and Mei Xiaotong also said something roughly.

Mrs. Zhang hated so much that she only patted the kang: "These ruthless fathers and mothers-"

On the other hand, he said: "If this girl is a good one, she is just waiting for you!" ”

Mei Xiaotong smiled: "This can't be forced, it depends on her creation." ”

When An Huahao came back in the evening, he saw that there was an extra maid in the family, so he didn't ask much, just nodded and instructed: "Just serve the lady well!" ”

Yang Zaizhao lay in the warm futon at night, as if in a dream.

She couldn't sleep, and she always thought about Mei Xiaotong's words in her head, broke them, crumpled them, and chewed them word by word.

I didn't dare to turn it over, for fear of waking up Mrs. Wu and Mrs. Ding.

finally stayed up until dawn, Yang Zaizhao listened to Mrs. Wu and Mrs. Ding wake up, and pretended to be asleep and closed his eyes.

Mrs. Wu and Mrs. Ding didn't notice it, but whispered, "Let's be lighter, don't wake up that girl!" Let her sleep a little longer, poor thing—"

Although Yang Zaizhao didn't say anything, his skinny body, yellow hair, and sallow face said it all, and the two mothers-in-law looked at such a little girl, and they rarely had a trace of compassion.

Waiting for Mrs. Wu and Mrs. Ding to go out lightly to work, Yang Zaizhao got up and finally made up his mind. Because of the decision, Yang Zaizhao didn't sleep anymore, and cleaned up the house before he got off the kang and folded the quilt before opening the door.

Mrs. Wu helped Mrs. Ding boil the washing water, and as soon as she got out of the door of the stove house, she heard the sound of brushing.

When I looked up, Yang Zaizhao was holding a broom taller than her and was trying to sweep the yard.

Immediately smiled, and was a little satisfied in his heart, it seems that this newcomer is a discerning one, not the kind of person who will take it because he has an old relationship with the master's family.

By the time Yang finished sweeping the yard, everyone got up.

The old rule is that Mrs. Zhang, Mei Xiaotong and An Huahao eat in the house, and Mrs. Wu and Mrs. Ding plus Yang Zaizhao eat in the stove house.

By the time An Huahao had breakfast and went to the academy, everyone was busy with their buddies.

Mrs. Wu had to wash her clothes, and Mrs. Ding went grocery shopping.

Yang Zaizhao looked left and right to see if there was nothing to do, and cautiously approached Mei Xiaotong's side.

Mei Xiaotong saw Yang Zaizhao's performance in the morning and guessed it.

Seeing her coming, he didn't deliberately tease her, and asked straight to the point: "Have you thought about it?" ”

Yang Zaizhao nodded, with a determined look on his face: "Xiucai lady, I've thought about it!" Buy me! In the future, I will be a lady's person, and I will do whatever the lady wants me to do! ”

Mei Xiaotong and Mrs. Zhang exchanged glances, and Mei Xiaotong said slowly: "Are you sure?" You must know the death deed of sale, even if something happens to the family in the future, the master family does not agree, and you can't go back. You can't put the main family behind your parents and siblings! In the future, there will only be the main family, only our family, can you know? ”

Yang Zaizhao nodded without hesitation: "I know!" Xiucai lady, I've thought about it! You and the old lady can rest assured, although I am a woman, I also know that if I say it, I will never regret it! ”

Mei Xiaotong was satisfied, but she still asked more: "Otherwise, I'll ask the third sister to bring a letter over, see what the third sister says, and then make a decision?" “

In the end, she is still just a little girl, and this important choice in life is better to discuss with an adult.

Yang Zhaodi is upright and a good person, for Yang Zhaodi's sake, she is also willing to give Yang another chance.

Yang Zhao hurriedly waved his hand when he heard this: "Please don't tell my third sister!" She is now pregnant with a child, if she hears that I was sold by my father, she can't go to my house to reason with my father, what if she has fetal gas? My third sister has always loved me the most, if this is because of me, what is so good, how can I have the face to see her in the future? ”

This is for the sake of Yang Zhaodi.

Mei Xiaotong thought in her heart, don't blame this Yang Zhaodi for Yang Zaizhao's best, and Yang Zaizhao has a conscience.

Just as she was about to speak, Mrs. Zhang spoke, she looked Yang Zaizhao up and down: "I heard Xiaotong say that the third sister was married to Yingzigou, and now the people in Yingzigou are rich, why don't you let my sister redeem it?" If you are worried about the third sister, we can also tell your brother-in-law! This is a maid for people, life and death are pinched in the hands of others, how can it be worth being at home, although it is more difficult, but the good life is your own, isn't it? ”

Yang recruited a little girl again, and showed a wry smile: "So that the old lady knows, let's not talk about whether my third sister's family has so much money, even if there is, isn't there still a third brother-in-law?" Now that the third sister has a body, she is about to give birth, and it is the time to use the money, if she uses the money to redeem me, what if the little nephew who was born wants to use the money? ”

"The third sister finally married a brother-in-law who loved her, if it was because of me, the brother-in-law had an opinion on the third sister, and the two of them would not have a good life in the future, wouldn't it be my sin?"

"Besides, even if my brother-in-law doesn't care and really buys me back, will it be difficult for me to live in the third sister's house for the rest of my life? You still have to send me home. Send home, what good can I do? I can't say that I will be sold again. Where will I have such good luck next time to meet a good person like Xiucai Niangzi? ”

Mei Xiaotong looked at this Yang and took another look, but he was bright-eyed.

Although Mrs. Zhang was satisfied, she still asked with a straight face: "This kid is also a little ruthless, right?" Anyway, that's also a father, and after raising such a big one, I don't miss them at all? ”

Yang gritted his teeth again and knelt in front of Mrs. Zhang: "Old lady, let me tell you the truth to your old man, I have been helping the family work since I can remember, and I have no complaints." My father and mother always scolded our sisters for losing money, saying that we will all be people from other people's families in the future, and we will raise us for nothing, and everyone who can provide for them in old age. ”

Later, with a younger brother, the Yang family finally had it

Later, there were successors to my father and mother, and our sisters were not unhappy. I thought that my father and mother would finally have someone to support them in their old age, and in the future, our sisters would do their filial piety, and my father and mother would never be sad in the future. ”

"From the eldest sister to the third sister, they were all said by their parents to lose money, but they were taken by their parents with the so-called high-priced dowry, and then sold several sisters out of the house, without even a new set of clothes. Several sisters are at home, and none of them eat white rice inside and out, and they all earn a lot of silver for their parents when they get married, and in this way, they are said to lose money. Father and mother often say that even if a woman is married, her father and mother are the closest to her mother's family, and she must always think about her younger brother at home, otherwise she will be bullied in her mother-in-law's house, and no one will stand up for them. ”

"I believed it at first, but the third sister secretly told me not to listen to my father, saying that even if we get married, we will empty our mother-in-law's house and go back to our parents' house, but I am afraid that if something happens, my mother's father and younger brother will also shrink Wang Ba's neck, and when we are spilled water, we will not help say a word."

"I looked at it slowly later, and I also understood that in my father's heart, there is only my younger brother! We were all born to sell money for them and our brother to spend. Now that my father and mother have sold the silver, it is also very good, and I have repaid my father's nurturing grace. ”

"I don't dare to say that I only have the master in my heart in the future, but except for the third sister, I ...... I'm just like I don't have any relatives! Yang Zaizhao finally held back such a sentence.

"It doesn't matter if the old lady thinks I'm ruthless, or a white-eyed wolf! That's what I think, I don't dare to deceive the talented lady and the old lady! ”

After saying this, Yang Zaizhao closed his eyes, not daring to look at the faces of Mei Xiaotong and Zhang Pozi above.

It took a long time before I heard Mrs. Zhang's voice: "It's a good boy, get up!" ”

Yang Zaizhao opened his eyes and looked up, Mei Xiaotong and Mrs. Zhang both looked at her with smiles.

"Get up! We all know the determination! It's completely figured out! From now on, just follow me, learn more from Aunt Wu and Aunt Ding when you have nothing to do, and I will teach you other rules slowly! Let's stay in peace! Mei Xiaotong nodded approvingly at Yang Zaizhao.

Yang Zaizhao couldn't help but burst into tears, and immediately blinked back again, kowtowing to Mei Xiaotong heavily: "The slave has seen the lady!" ”

Mei Xiaotong stretched out her hand to signal her to get up, and said kindly: "We have a small family, and we don't have the rules of so many big families, as long as we are honest and obedient, we don't have to kneel around." You don't have to call yourself a slave, just call yourself a name—"

Speaking of this, he hesitated: "That name is really not good, if you have no opinion, I will give it a new name?" ”

Yang Zaizhao's pre-job training at Mrs. Wang's place a few days ago was not done in vain, I know that there is one, with a new master, if you get the master's blue eyes, you must give a name, this is the beginning of being the master's henchman.

What's more, she also knows that her name is not good, and she is laughed at in the village.

So he nodded hurriedly: "Listen to the lady." ”

Mei Xiaotong said it, and when it was time to choose a name, she realized that she was a waste of her name, and she really didn't know what to do for a while?

Recalling Gu Zikai's scholar, his name is Wolf Hao, and he writes when he hears it.

The personal servant of Li Jiushao is called Wangcai, and he makes money when he hears it.

I have to think about it and understand what it means when I hear it. I'm here to farm, so I can't call it rice planting, tea picking, or dyeing cloth, right?

Scratching her scalp, Mei Xiaotong held back a name for a long time, "It's called Gu Yu!" “

This kind of field is inseparable from the 24 solar terms, now the valley rain has passed, the beginning of summer has not arrived, it is called the valley rain.

In the future, if you buy a maid or something at home, you don't have to worry about the name, you can choose the twenty-four solar terms.

Mei Xiaotong gave herself a big thumbs up in her heart!

In order to avoid making Yang Zaizhao feel that his name is too perfunctory, he also racked his brains to explain why it is called Gu Yu, because this is the last season of spring, and this time is the time to sow seeds, which also means that the cold wave has passed, the temperature will rise, and everything will be fine.

Yang Zaizhao, no, it's Gu Yu now, when he heard this name, it was catchy, much better than what he recruited again, and he thought to himself, he really deserved to be a talented lady, and the name he gave to a little girl casually had so many meanings, and his eyes were full of gratitude.

Mei Xiaotong was a little ashamed to sweat, but looking at Gu Yu's little girl's grateful eyes, she suddenly even believed her nonsense just now.

These are all trivial things, since I bought Gu Yu as a maid, I must cultivate it as a personal maid.

Mei Xiaotong also explained to Gu Yu in detail the rules of the family: there is work in the eyes, diligence, and cleanliness. Be honest, and the most important thing is that your mouth matters! As for what special talents individuals have, for example, Mrs. Wu is especially good at finding out news, and Mrs. Ding is also able to settle accounts, which are purely unexpected surprises.

In addition, it is also decided, Gu Yu is a new little girl, follow the study first, and there are twenty big dollars of monthly money every month. And Mrs. Wu and Mrs. Ding, because they have sold themselves to the Song family, naturally have monthly money, and they have 400 yuan per person for food, clothing, housing and transportation.

It sounds more than half less than before, but Mrs. Wu and Mrs. Ding are very happy. This host's family eats well, wears warmly, and lives cleanly and comfortably, so you don't have to worry about it.

In the past, although one or two pieces of silver a month, I could do this home, and once I lost the owner, I had to eat the old book.

But now, as long as you don't spend money indiscriminately every month, you can save all the money this month.

Occasionally, the host also appreciated some fabric purses or something, and they were very satisfied.

Therefore, when teaching Gu Yu, he was very attentive and washed the brain that Mrs. Wang had not completely washed.

Anyway, the main family is so good, and you won't have to worry about following the main family for the rest of your life, but don't get dizzy, you can't do it

When the matter of the main family comes, when the main family gets angry and sells it casually, it will be miserable.

Gu Yu remembered it all in his heart, and he had to say a few words before going to bed every night, eager to carve it into his bones.

It's the wolf in the front yard, who heard that the talented lady in the backyard bought a little girl, and she was curious.

These scholars, they also come into contact with scholars in the academy, and when they go home, they face either their young master or their parents.

Not to mention a little girl of the same age, even women don't see much.

I remembered that in the capital before, the beautiful little girls in the Manchu Mansion had sweet mouths, and saw that they were all wolf brothers, who followed him all day long, either sending snacks or soup.

The young master of his own family never wanted these, he was cheaper, and he collected a lot of purses every year.

Since I came to Jing County with the young master, it stands to reason that there shouldn't be any young master's classmates, sisters, or masters, there are always a few girls, right? Not to mention anything else, the little girl who looks at the flowers and branches every day is also happy.

But the Evergreen Academy chosen by the young master, not to mention the sisters of the same classmates, I am afraid that even the flies in the academy are male.

The families of the masters are all in a place outside the academy, and the students in the academy are strictly forbidden to go there.

Chat with other scholars, the young master of other families will have a maid to make the bed and fold the quilt when he goes back, his own young master, forget it!

This young master can't count on it, and he has money in the backyard with Song Xiucai's family, and it's good to look at other people's little maids.

Wolf Hao was worried in his heart, and there was a little encouragement in and out of his words, thinking of going to the backyard with his young master.
