[800โ small รท said โ.], wonderful free reading without pop-ups!
When Ye Qing practiced calligraphy for a short time, Dong Yun brought her a bowl of mung bean and pear syrup, and then retreated.
As soon as I took two sips, there was a sound of talking at the door, and it seemed that a guest had come to the door.
Ye Qing put down the brush and walked out, only to see a few people standing in the courtyard.
"Brother Xing, why are you, are you coming to see me?" Qian Duoduo looked at a beardless man in some surprise and said.
"I'm here to find you and your young master." Xing Mingsheng said.
"Then you can sit down first." Qian Duoduo said enthusiastically.
was stunned, Qian Duoduo still pulled Xing Mingsheng into the courtyard, and moved a few more stools to ask someone to sit down.
"Duoduo, are they your relatives?" Dong Ling's eyes showed doubts, this scholar-like person looks a little familiar, as if he has seen it somewhere, but
I can't remember it for a while.
Qian Duoduo shook his head, and just opened his mouth to explain, Xing Mingsheng, who was not sitting on the stool, suddenly took a step forward, yes, he had already left
Ye Qingzuo, who came over, said, "Hello brother and sister, I am Xing Mingsheng, and I am a student of Master Zhuang. โ
When he first saw Ye Qing come out, he recognized this as Qian Junbao's wife.
"Hello Senior Brother Xing, my father-in-law is not here now, he will come back later, you can drink some tea and wait for him here!" After Ye Qing finished speaking,
Tell Dong Ling to go and get the tea.
At this time, Dongyun came from the kitchen and shouted with a smile: "Duoduo, you taste it, this cake is delicious!" โ
Qian Duoduo took a bite of the scone rolled into a long strip, and in an instant, his eyes instantly widened and burst into light, "Huh!
Is this made of eggs......"
He took another bite uncertainly, this time slowly, chewing carefully, savoring the taste, fragrant and crispy.
"Well, this is what I learned from the second young lady, it's called an egg roll, it's delicious!" Dong Yun asked happily.
Qian Duoduo nodded, "It's delicious." โ
"Dongyun go and get some more, there's a guest here." Ye Qing commanded.
"Yes." Dongyun hurriedly put down the plate in his hand, and then ran into the kitchen again.
"Please." Ye Qing also sat down with a smile, said to Xing Mingsheng and them, and then began to look at a few of them.
One is Xing Mingsheng, who is wearing a cotton robe that has been washed white, but it is a little wrinkled. This is because the cotton wore the original for a long time
Cause.
The other was a middle-aged man, who sat there straight and silent, and his finger joints on the table were very thick
Large, densely covered with tiny dark scars,
He was followed by a little girl of about ten years old, thin and small, wearing a floral shirt and brown linen skirt, timid
He stood there with his head bowed and a small bag in his hand.
The egg roll smells like nothing, and there are thin black sesame seeds on it, it looks delicious, Xing Ming
Sheng and the others sat upright and did not move.
When the tea was brought over, Ye Qing looked at them and asked, "Do you have anything to do with coming to my husband?" If only I could help
, I'll help you solve it. โ
Xing Mingsheng was stunned, and quickly smiled: "Hmm...... I forgot to introduce, this is Liu Ta from our village, and next to him is his
daughter Guo'er girl, his wife used to be a nurse for Zizhan for two months. โ
Ye Qing glanced at the father and daughter of the Liu family again, and did not speak, secretly thinking that this person should want to seek Qian Junbao's help.
Sure enough, Liu Ta immediately got up and nodded and said with a smile: "Young lady, we came this time to ask for something." The old mother is seriously ill and at home
I have no money for treatment, and I happen to have a little daughter, I want to see if the young master and the young lady can accept her as a little maid? โ
Liu Ta's wife ran away with a merchant, he has been an alcoholic over the years, although he doesn't gamble, but because he is greedy for delicious food, he doesn't have it at home
Hoard.
The old mother is close to the age of six, but she still has to help him pull the children.
A few days ago, I was infected with a cold and coughed, and eating herbs didn't help, and it has not been good.
Liu Ta originally didn't want to spend money on treatment, but he was afraid of losing a reputation for unfilial piety.
Later, I thought that my wife had been a nurse in Qianfu, so I wanted to sell one of my daughter to Qianfu for some silver taels.
However, he was afraid that he would find Qian Mansion like this, and people would not want to see him.
It just so happened that Xing Mingsheng, the son of Liu Ta's neighbor, came back, and he had heard that he was Qian Junbao's classmate, so he begged him to come along
Come to Qianfu.
Liu Guoer is Liu Ta's youngest daughter, and he also has two daughters and a son at home. The other two daughters will be able to live in a year or two
After getting married, his daughter looks more like her mother, and it's a pity to sell it, so it's better to stay at home for a year or two, and then come
In exchange for a lot of dowry, maybe they can climb a good family, not to mention that they can also help a lot at home.
The youngest daughter Liu Guo'er is not very old, and she looks average, she is just a drag oil bottle, and Liu Ta thought about selling her.
Xing Mingsheng hadn't seen Qian Junbao for a long time, thinking that this was also an opportunity, so he agreed to Liu Ta's request and let him take it
Liu Guoer came to the door.
When Ye Qing heard this, he looked at Liu Guo'er again, probably knowing his fate, Liu Guo'er raised his head and looked at Ye Qing, yes
She smiled more ugly than crying.
Ye Qing gave her a reassuring smile, then glanced back at Xing Mingsheng, and asked lightly, "Let's buy a maid here."
Come, it's nothing, I just don't know what kind of sale you plan to make, whether it's a long-term job or a death contract. This does long work only
If you want to make a ten-year contract, if you have a death contract, she will be the slave of the Qian Mansion in the future, and she will have nothing to do with your Liu family. โ
Anyway, if she opens a shop, she will also need manpower, and this kind of half-grown girl, if she follows her early, she can also be trained for a few years.
Xing Mingsheng asked Liu Ta, "Did you hear that, how much do you want?" How to make a deed? โ
When Liu Ta heard that Ye Qing was going to buy Liu Guo'er, a pair of thin eyes flashed with a cunning light, and he rubbed his hands and said, "There were people last year."
The family fell in love with my eldest girl, and paid fifty taels of silver to buy it for ten years, I felt that the family's family was not good, and I was worried that my eldest girl would be wronged
Qu did not agree.
Of course, Guo'er is only eleven years old and my eldest girl can't be compared, but it's still okay to be a half-messenger. If the young lady fancies the fruit
Son, I hope you can give fifty taels of silver to make a death deed, and she will be a member of the Qian Mansion in the future. Guo'er is well-behaved and obedient, and works hard
, looks handsome and pretty, the young lady will not suffer a loss when she buys her. โ
The corners of Ye Qing's lips moved, Liu Guo'er was so thin and looked malnourished, not to mention her dark skin, her facial features were definitely not counted
Pretty, the big flat nose completely inherits Liu Ta's appearance, plus the sparse hair and eyebrows, she is handsome
I can't take the edge at all.
is such an empty mouth and white teeth, talking big here, I didn't expect that Liu Ta, who looked honest, was actually such a person.
Ye Qing frowned, feeling that he might have looked away before.
