Chapter 557: Selling Yourself (Page 1/1)

"Thank you, Dr. Du." Shen Xiangmiao thanked him and took the silver money out of his purse to hand it over.

Doctor Du Zhong waved his hand and excused himself: "This medicine is newly dispensed, I don't know how effective the medicine is, if it has no effect, wouldn't it be in vain to receive your silver taels, let's talk about it after it is effective, don't be in a hurry at this time, you can't run away anyway, right?" ”

Shen Xiangmiao and Dr. Du Zhong are quite familiar with each other, and they are not fake politeness, so Shen Xiangmiao responded, took the cashier, and calculated to give it at the right time.

After coming out of the pharmacy and returning to the Moon Full Building, Shen Xiangmiao went to find Fang Huairen, explained the situation, and asked Fang Huairen to help see if there were any familiar people, whether he could buy one or two maids and servants to help take care of the housework at home.

"There are acquaintances, but I don't know if there is a suitable one, the maid and servant who makes it by himself, you have to pick it well, you can't be sloppy, this matter is not in a hurry, I will help you pick it first, help you pass the eye, if there is a suitable one, and then let you see." Fang Huairen replied.

Fang Huairen said it well, since she bought it back, she is a member of her family, if she finds some to make do with it, and it is not easy to use, I am afraid that there will be more people who will be annoyed in the future, and this matter is indeed unhurried.

"That shopkeeper will help me keep an eye on it." Shen Xiangmiao said.

"Hmm." Fang Huairen nodded: "Miss Shen, rest assured." ”

This matter was entrusted to Fang Huairen, and Shen Xiangmiao was relieved, so she went to get busy.

After lunch, the guys all went back to the house to rest, Shen Xiangmiao felt a little thirsty when she took a break, so she went outside to pour water to drink, and heard a few guys outside chatting in the courtyard, talking very lively.

Because Shen Wentao was also there, Shen Xiangmiao saw it and smiled: "What are you talking about, so lively?" ”

Seeing Shen Xiangmiao coming, Shen Wentao ran over and said, "Sister Xiangmiao, there are people selling themselves into slavery outside, just at the door of our hot pot restaurant, we are talking about this." ”

"Oh?" Shen Xiangmiao raised her eyebrows slightly: "What kind of person is it?" ”

"A girl, looking fifteen or sixteen?" Shen Wentao scratched his ears and said: "I'm not sure, that girl lowered her head and couldn't see her face clearly, but she estimated that she was about this age, saying that her family had suffered a disaster and fled all the way. ”

After that, Shen Wentao asked: "Speaking of which, Sister Xiangmiao, aren't you thinking about buying a maid or something to help the second aunt with housework, why don't you go and see if it's appropriate, it's very pitiful." ”

"Hmm."

I just need to buy a maid, I'm afraid that there will be no suitable one for a while, so maybe you can be lucky enough to meet the right one.

Second, I just said that I wanted to buy a maid in the morning, and I met such a person who sold her body in the afternoon, and Shen Xiangmiao also felt that it was fate, so she wanted to take a look.

When he and Shen Wentao walked out of the gate, they saw that on the side of the street not far from the door, there was indeed a girl kneeling, ragged, unkempt, with her head lowered and occasionally raised, to take a look at the people coming and going.

When she saw Shen Xiangmiao come out, the girl stood up, took two steps forward, and knelt directly at Shen Xiangmiao's feet: "Girl, seeing that you are a kind-hearted person, you can take pity on me, a helpless person, and enjoy food." ”

After saying that, it seemed that he was afraid that Shen Xiangmiao would not agree, so he said very eagerly: "I do laundry and cooking, chop wood and make fires, I can do everything, and I will also have some knitting women, I am not lazy, if the girl buys me and goes back to be a maid, I will definitely not lose." ”

A small mouth is the head of the Tao, and it doesn't seem to be a stupid person.

"You get up first." Shen Xiangmiao reached out to help the girl.

When I touched my fingers, I could feel that there were a lot of calluses on the palms and knuckles of the girl's hands, and it seemed that she had done a lot of rough work before.

The girl didn't want to get up, but sobbed and said, "Girl, I've been kneeling here for most of the day, and no one has ever been willing to pay for me. As long as I give my mouth enough to eat and a place to live, I don't want much money, just two taels of silver. ”

The girl cried more and more fiercely as she spoke: "If the girl doesn't buy me, I may have to go to another place to see, the girl doesn't know, when I was in the county town, I was almost robbed by the bully, and I was almost sold to the kiln...... I was so scared that I didn't dare to run away from the wilderness anymore. ”

"Girl, girl, if you are willing, as long as you can eat enough, I don't want these two taels of silver, don't you think so."

The more she said, the more pitiful the girl became, and she kowtowed a few times to Shen Xiangmiao: "Girl, you have pity on me, have pity on me." ”

The girl seemed to be knocking very hard, and she could hear the dull sound of "dong dong", plus the words she had just said, and the appearance of the girl crying bitterly at this time, it was really unbearable.

Even Shen Wentao, who was watching from the sidelines, didn't feel a taste in his heart.

However, Shen Xiangmiao looked at the girl for a while, but her heart sank, she closed her mouth, and said: "Although you look pitiful and the asking price is not high, but my family is poor, and I don't have the money to raise another person, so the girl should ask others." ”

As soon as these words came out, Shen Wentao was so shocked that his jaw almost dropped.

Ordinary Shen Xiangmiao is the most benevolent, seeing such a poor person, she will definitely do what she can, and seeing that this girl has strong hands and feet, she is a person who can do work, and she doesn't need any money, it is said that it is best to buy it and go back to do rough work, but Shen Xiangmiao refused at a glance, and her attitude was very cold.

"Sister Xiangmiao......" Shen Wentao opened his mouth very suspiciously, wanting to persuade him.

Shen Xiangmiao motioned for him not to say anything, and only said to the girl: "Forgive me for not being able to do anything." ”

Then, he pulled Shen Wentao inside.

Walking all the way to the backyard, Shen Xiangmiao stopped.

Shen Wentao was still full of doubts: "Sister Xiangmiao, is this person suitable?" But it looks very pitiful, if it's not suitable, Sister Xiangmiao doesn't want to buy it, then I'll take some food and give it to her, look at the pitiful. ”

"It's not suitable, not only is it not suitable to buy a maid, but even if you eat food, it's best not to send it." Shen Xiangmiao said, her expression serious and serious.

"Why is that?" Shen Wentao saw Shen Xiangmiao say this, and said such a solemn matter, and became more and more full of doubts.

"That person just ......" Shen Xiangmiao lowered her eyelids slightly and said, "I'm afraid that whether it's the identity or the purpose, it's not ordinary." ”

"Huh?"

Shen Wentao almost dropped his jaw again.
