Chapter Ninety-Four: The Scholar

After the lace matter was settled, Tang Yiqin's appetite for eating increased greatly, and he drank a big mouthful of soup with great satisfaction.

"I don't know my sister's name yet."

"The little woman's family is surnamed Li, and her name is Handong. Miss just call me Handong, don't have the title just now, the little woman can't afford it. ”

Han Dong didn't expect that such an immortal would call her a sister. Where did she get such an honor, and she must not let the young lady suffer with her.

"Handong, good name. I live in Tang Mansion and my name is Yiqin. ”

"I don't know Miss Tang, what do you need the little woman to help with?"

"Does Handong hook flowers? It's a long strip, just the ordinary kind. ”

Tang Yiqin was afraid that Han Dong would not understand, and gestured with his fingers.

"The little woman of the crochet flower will be there, but the little woman doesn't know if Miss Tang wants it. The little woman now hooks the young lady and goes. ”

"Don't be in such a hurry, and it's so cold outside, we'll go back to the Tang Mansion to discuss it after eating." Eat it! ”

"Hey~"

There is no warmer time than this cold winter, Han Dong was steamed on his face by the heat of the wontons, and his eyes were red.

"Mother~ Mother, where are you?"

A child stood in the stall before Handong, looking around.

"Handong, do you have a child?"

"Yes, Miss Tang. The little woman has a son named Huzi. ”

"Look at that kid over there, don't you?"

"Can the little woman go over and take a look, it's a little far away, and the little woman can't make out it."

"Let's go, I'll go with you."

On such a cold day, shouldn't Huzi be waiting for her at home? How did you get out? Han Dong was anxious in his heart, and couldn't help but speed up his pace a little.

"Mother~ Huzi just couldn't find you, and I thought my mother didn't want me anymore."

"No, my mother will never leave the tiger behind. Why did you suddenly run out, such a cold day. ”

"Dad was drunk, and he shouted that he was going to sell Huzi, and Huzi was scared, so he ran to kiss the little mother."

When Han Dong heard this, he hugged Huzi tightly and couldn't help crying. Her father-in-law's name is Zhang Daqiang, and she used to be a hard worker, but how could she have been infected with the vice of eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling, and since then she and Huzi have not had a good life. Selling the tiger is not a matter of one or two times, each time she will risk her life and take out some of her jewelry to him before she will give up.

"Miss Tang, please, buy Huzi! Huzi will be very well-behaved, and he doesn't eat much. ”

Huzi looked up with a small head, a pair of clear and clean little eyes, and looked curiously at the beautiful sister in front of him.

Tang Yiqin hurriedly helped Han Dong, who was kneeling on the ground, up: "Let's go back to the Tang Mansion first and then talk about it, how cold it is outside!" You can't bear to let the tiger freeze outside! ”

"Beautiful sister, Huzi is not cold."

"Huzi, don't shout indiscriminately, you have to call Miss, you have to listen to Miss Tang well in the future, and serve Miss Tang well."

"Handong, it's okay. I'm not a young lady either, call me Sister Tang! I like Huzi to call me sister. ”

"Sister Tang, Huzi likes you very much."

All three of them had smiles on their faces, and they were the most relaxed in talking to children, without scheming, pure, and clean.

Unconsciously, the three of them walked to the Tang Mansion, and Han Dong was carrying a basket in her hand, which contained her needlework and the needleball that Tang Yiqin bought.

"Sister Tang, is this your home? It's big, it's beautiful. ”

"Yes, do you like it? In the future, you can also come to live with Sister Tang. ”

"Really?"

"Of course."

Along the way, Huzi and Tang Yiqin kept talking. Yanran Huzi has lost the timidity he had at the beginning, and he is still a little kind. Han Dong saw it in his eyes, and he was also happy from the bottom of his heart.

"Mother, I'm back."

"You girl, you've been out for a day, are you hungry? This is a little pastry that my mother made for you, eat some to fill your stomach. ”

Tang Yiqin took a piece of dim sum in one hand, one piece went into her stomach, and the other piece was stuffed into Huzi.

"Mother, I forgot to tell you. This is Handong and her child Huzi, the embroidery girl I found. ”

"I've seen the old lady, it's the young lady who carries her love, and the little lady can only do some simple needlework."

"You don't have to be so polite in the Tang family, just treat this place as your own home in the future. Huzi, this kid is really cute. ”

"I've seen grandma, grandma is as good-looking as Sister Tang."

"Oops~ It's so sweet that grandma's heart is gone. Come to grandma's place and eat pastries. ”

After the greetings, Handong began to do work, and according to what Tang Yiqin said before, he made his first attempt. The room was very warm, and Han Dong's hands and feet were a lot faster.

"Miss, let's see if it's true."

Tang Yiqin had to admire the craftsmanship of the ancients, and the weaving was no different from modern lace, but the needle and thread were thicker, which was not suitable for use on clothes.

"Handong, can you use a finer needle and thread to knit? Weave it longer. ”

"Yes, miss."

"Well, from today onwards, you are the embroidery girl officially hired by my Tang Mansion, how about giving you twenty taels of silver a month?"

"Twenty taels? It's too much, I can't use it, just give me five or two months of money a month. ”

At Handong's insistence, the monthly money was set at ten taels of silver a month. She also had a reluctant request, that is, she begged Tang Yiqin to buy Huzi, don't let him go back, for fear that one day she will sell Huzi when she is not there, and she will really not be able to see Huzi by then. She worked in the Tang Mansion again, so she was very satisfied to see Huzi every day.

Tang Yiqin knew her difficulties, and Huzi was a sensible child, so she responded. However, she didn't plan to enroll Huzi as a slave, but she was a descendant of the Tang Mansion on the surface to protect him.

Huzi has also reached the age of reading, Tang Yiqin wants him to be a little scholar in Tang Yuting, read some books, and it is good to know Braille. However, she still has to ask Tang Yuting's consent, after all, she is looking for a scholar for her younger brother.

"Huzi, meet the little brother."

"Hello little brother."

Tang Yuting was a taciturn child, just hummed lightly, Huzi looked at the serious Tang Yuting, a little scared, worried that the little young master in front of him would not like him and drive him away.

"Xiao Yu'er, how about my sister find you a scholar?"

"How can you learn how to speak with that demon, stay away from him in the future, so as not to be taken away."

Tang Yiqin grimaced, she didn't care.

"Don't you think that's a more affectionate title? I'll get down to business for you! ”

"Stay! Don't cry, you have to be quick with your hands and feet, I don't need a burden that drags me back. ”

Is it too cruel to say such things to a child, Tang Yiqin really wants to pull the little face of his arrogant brother.

"Little master, I understand. I will do a good job and will not cause trouble to the little master. ”

Sure enough, the children of poor families were in charge of the family early, Tang Yiqin didn't expect Huzi to be so transparent about such things.

Huzi knows that Sister Tang is a good person. If he doesn't work in the Tang Mansion, he will be sold by his father in the future, and he doesn't want to leave his mother. Now it's okay, my mother is doing work in the Tang Mansion, and he is also doing work in the Tang Mansion, so we can meet every day in the future.

"Don't be too fierce with Huzi." Tang Yiqin walked up to Tang Yuting and whispered in his ear.

Tang Yuting nodded, he believed that Tang Yiqin's vision would not give him people indiscriminately.

"Huzi, you just follow Yuting! If he bullies you, tell me, and I'll teach him a lesson. ”

Tang Yuting's face was black, who is his younger brother.

"Young master, Huzi will give you ink."

"Hmm."

Six or seven-year-old Huzi, standing in front of the desk, just showing a small head, and it was a little difficult to study ink.

Tang Yuting didn't sympathize with him, this is what he should hone, as a man, he shouldn't be hypocritical. If he can't bear this hardship, it's better for him to go back early.

Huzi's face was serious, without any disgust or complaint. How many people want to be the young master's scholar, this is his honor.
