What is literature, Xing Lao Niang has really never heard of it. Xing Shuang suddenly understood, and asked, "Shakespeare?" ”

This sentence was asked in English, and Yingchun was pleasantly surprised: "Oh, mother, do you know Shakespeare? ”

But soon she added: "He's a great guy, but I don't really like him that much. Maybe I wasn't born in his time and couldn't resonate with his flowery statements. Instead, I prefer some plain prose.

"Does Mother know the book of Morflemers? This is the best I've ever read! You don't know? You should know about Robinson Crusoe, right? Don't know? You have to read it, I like this kind of writing that is close to the spoken language, it makes people seem to have no sense of barrier, just like when I was a child when you told me stories, eloquent, very approachable. ”

Yingchun's eyebrows fluttered, and Xing Shuang pretended to be a little flustered in a timely manner, so that Xing Lao Niang grinned at her proudly.

Well, I heard what she said just now, and I thought she really knew. I feel that my daughter must have asked someone in advance, what kind of powerful literary writer is there in England, but it turned out that it was not what my granddaughter liked, and then I was told by my granddaughter, saying that it was messed up, right?

Mrs. Xing proudly stuffed a beef roast wheat into her mouth, and snorted twice in her nose, very happy.

To be able to see that this unfilial girl is deflated, it is really the fastest thing in the world.

How could Xing Shuang not know the two books that Yingchun said, these two books were also classics at the time, and even in later generations, they were among the world's famous books.

But she can't say she knows everything in front of her mother, right? Even if the old lady was not there, she could not admit that she knew these two books, after all, she had never been to England.

"I happened to bring a copy back, mother, you must take a look, but it is in English, I will translate it for you first." Yingchun said, put down the chopsticks, turned his head and asked Mrs. Xing: "Grandmother, can you take a look too?" ”

Xing Lao Niang wrapped a mouthful of beef roasted wheat, and almost choked out. Is there something wrong with this girl, if you two want to be vassal, you two will go to Fengya, and what will you do with my old woman. At my age, I still have to spend time reading, so can't I devote my limited time to tasting food?

Xing Shuang held back a smile, glanced at her mother, and gave her a look that she could definitely understand, "Should", did you feel sorry for me just now, isn't it your turn this time?

Xing Lao Niang's temper came, and she slapped her chopsticks: "Someone!" Bring you 10 servings of the most expensive abalone porridge here! ”

Xing Shuang had a pain in her flesh, but she didn't dare to stop the old lady from serving the food, so she had to quickly bow down and say: "Mother beware of eating food, one is good, one is good." ”

It was only said that the three of them returned to the house after eating the food, and Yingchun really stuck with his mother for a while and couldn't wait to go back to the room to clean up.

When I entered the house, I met the boss Qi and said to the rough maid who was waiting in the house here: "The girl doesn't need anyone to enter the house to serve on weekdays, and she will ring the bell when she calls people." Listen carefully to the bell, if there is no rattle into the house, beware of disturbing the girl's work, and see if you will be punished. ”

Yingchun smiled and said to her: "Why scare her, she is a little older." ”

After speaking, he asked the rough maid: "How many of you were brought from the capital, or did you buy them here?" ”

The rough maid happened to be a family child, and replied to Yingchun with a smile: "Back to the second girl, the maids who used to serve the girls, because the girls were not there, it was useless to bring them, so they didn't bring any of them."

"When I came to Guangzhou, I hired a lot of maids with living deeds, but I didn't dare to use them for girls, for fear that they would not understand the rules. Now the slaves and maids are all brought over by their wives to give birth to children in the courtyard of the eight rough envoys in the courtyard, and the girls have any rules to order, and we will all remember them with our hearts. ”

Yingchun nodded and said with a smile: "In this case, what your sister Siqi tells you, you just do it." Then she opened the curtain and went into the house, and the little maid at the door had not yet raised her hand, and when she saw the girl enter by herself, she was stunned and her eyes widened.

Seeing this, Si Qi laughed, poked the little girl's forehead with his hand and said, "Seeing something, why did it scare you." There will be a lot of such things in the future, and you are still surprised by everything? In the future, there is no need to let anyone stand at this door, and the girl does not have to open the curtains. ”

The little maid at the door and the rough maid said yes, but they wondered in their hearts, if this Sister Siqi was too big, what should they serve, why did the girl do it herself. Could it be that when the girl is outside, Sister Si Qi is also serving like this? That's really disrespectful.

The two little girls thought they had caught Si Qi's sore spot, and one of them took advantage of Si Qi's inattention, turned around and ran to his wife's yard and complained.

Xing Shuang is seeing Jia Yun here, Jia Yun is saying that the income of the rubber plantation after the tax deduction this year has increased a lot compared with previous years, and he praised the third uncle for painting a good machine, and the uncle changed it better, so he heard Jin Chuan outside who didn't know who to reprimand, "Things that don't have long eyes, you can also break in, and don't look at what place this is."

Xing Shuang frowned, knowing that Jin Chuan would not do this on weekdays, so he asked through the window, "Who is outside?" ”

Jin Chuan turned around and opened the curtain and came in, and said with a smile on his face: "I don't know where the wild cats and wild dogs came from, but they actually said that the maids we have trained are not as good as her to serve people." That Si Qi also came out of the first batch of training classes, and she actually came to complain, saying that Si Qi neglected her master. ”

Xing Shuang was in a good mood today, but when she heard that it was such a, she suddenly became impatient. In the past, there was no shortage of such jealousy at home, but since the girls were gone, it was rare.

I also forgot that there are many maids, all waiting to follow the girl to ask for a position, and in the future they will be married, so that they will also be carried up to be concubines.

"Since you are so good at serving, you can go and serve my mother." Xing Shuang pointed to the maid and said, "She just lacks a caring person over there, and she is not like your girl, who is young and vigorous and can lift the curtain." Since you love to make curtains so much, you don't have to do anything else, just make curtains for her old man. ”

The maid heard the two trembling waves, and immediately knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.

Xing Shuang is getting older, and she is more and more impatient to watch these episodes, but she is not as patient as she was when she was young.

She only frowned, and Jin Chuan immediately came up and dragged people down, without letting this maid quarrel with his wife at all.
