Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Bloodstained Knife
Mrs. Qian was surprised by the other party's "business acumen", but when she heard Ye Yuran come to such a sentence, she was surprised: "Your family wants to produce a scholar?!"
God knows, there are not many mud-legged people who dare to think of sending their children to school.
Scholars say that everything is inferior, only reading is high, but a few people know that reading is a bottomless pit, and farmers can't afford to support it.
"Hmm!" Ye Yuran nodded solemnly, put out the style of the lady in the memory of the original owner, and called out to Zhu Eighth Sister, "Eighth Sister, come here." ”
"Mother, you call me?" Zhu Bamei was a little afraid, she had just teased Lin Sanya about "looking at each other" before, wouldn't it be her turn again?
"Your two nephews are not here, you say hello to your aunt, and recite a book to your aunt for them," Ye Yuran gave Zhu Bamei a start, "Qing is turbid." ”
She didn't dare to look at anything else, so she picked a closer one, for fear that Zhu Bamei would not be able to carry it, and she would make a fool of herself.
will pick Zhu Bamei, also because there is really no one at home, and she can't find anyone.
When Zhu Bamei heard this, she breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately shouted "auntie" and recited it loudly: "Clear to turbid, bitter to salty, one to three." Smoke to the rain hat, the moon list to the sail ......"
Ye Yuran waited for her to finish reciting a paragraph, and then said with relief: "Yes, yes, it's not bad that your nephew has nothing to carry in front of you, and he has trained his ears." Make an amendum to your aunt and go back to work. ”
According to the etiquette of "everyone is beautiful" that she learned before, Zhu Bamei said to Mrs. Qian in a good manner: "Auntie sit first, and the little girl will go to work." ”
Mrs. Qian's eyes widened.
"Although we are from a small family, as long as the children in the family are angry, what is the hardship, as long as someone comes out, are you still afraid that this big family will not be able to get up?" Ye Yuran lowered her posture a little more, and said very modestly and cautiously, "I'm sorry, this girl has only learned a little bit now, and she is a little showy and not elegant." There are no adults looking at it, and sometimes it is frizzy and boring, which makes people unable to see it. ”
"What are you talking about, big sister?!" Mrs. Qian gave a thumbs up and said admiringly, "Your girl is not ordinarily well-raised, otherwise I wouldn't have flashed my eyes as soon as I entered the door, and I almost forgot to get down to business." I have to apologize to you again, what you just said that you don't look at each other is really a slap in the face, don't take it to heart. Next time, I will definitely come seriously and will not be so hasty again. ”
Looking at the three girls who were busy working on the other side, the more I looked at it, the more I liked it.
She doesn't know if this old man Zhu's family will produce a scholar, but a little girl can "endorse" it, and she can talk about it when she takes it out, which can be regarded as a long face.
And from her point of view, she knew at a glance that among the three girls, except for the one who had just endorsed the girl, the remaining two must be good at work.
Also, the girl who endorsed the book was the youngest, and it was normal to be favored, and her sister was a good worker, so how bad could she be?
Taking advantage of this boom, both sides decided on the matter of "business".
Sent Mrs. Qian away happily, and Li's heart was capitalized "convinced".
Mother-in-law out of the horse, one top two. Not only did they not lower the price, but by the way, they also raised their confidence to let the other party "convinc".
By the way, a girl who was almost "cheaply sold" by her second sister became a hot item.
Ye Yuran's face turned cold, and asked Li to close the door and guard at the door.
Li realized that something was going to happen, so he obediently moved a stool over and sat at the gate of the courtyard.
In the courtyard, several concubines and girls who were working faintly panicked.
Ye Yuran was still sitting in his original position, raised his chin, and shouted vigorously: "Old Five, come here." ”
Lin Shi hurriedly ran over and stood in front of her.
"Mother......" she shouted weakly.
"Do you know what's wrong?" Ye Yuran stared at her and asked.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to...... I wanted to talk to her casually, but she took the initiative to mention her nephew, and I ......"
"Huh!"
Two words, made Lin a little scared: "I admit it, I saw that the clothes she was wearing didn't even have a patch, and I thought she was in good condition, so I was a little anxious, and as soon as I heard her mention her nephew, I quickly recommended my mother's sister-in-law...... But mother, I am also kind, and you also know the situation of my family. If the third and fourth girls don't get out quickly, they may be sold by my milk. I just thought that my sister could marry better. ”
"If I don't come out, are you going to let her take Sanya away directly?" Ye Yuran said coldly.
"How come, no matter how stupid I am, I know that this kind of thing is going to be a matchmaker, if I ask her to take Sanya away, then what will happen to my sister?" Lin whispered.
"Old five, I know what you're anxious about, but no matter how anxious you are, you can't rush to push your sister out, that's your own sister, not goods. Who is this Mrs. Qian, what is the situation in her family, whether what she says is true or not, we don't know anything, you dare to sell your sister casually? Aren't you afraid of pushing your sister into the fire pit?"
"I'm afraid ......"
"I'm afraid you still dare to do it? Which family marries a girl doesn't put on a high posture and let the man come to 'ask for marriage', 'ask to marry', do you understand? That is, you are a girl's family, and your posture should be high, and you want a man to beg to 'marry' you. You rushed to the door yourself, what do you think the man will think of you?"
Lin lowered her head, because her mother-in-law's words made her think of Zhu Wu.
She and Zhu Wu are like this, she is the one who takes the initiative, so she is nothing with Zhu Wu.
The grievances were all over the eyes at once, and they were moist.
If her mother had taught her this, wouldn't she and Zhu Wu have become what they are now?
Ye Yuran sighed and said: "I'm not telling you to listen to it alone, a few of you here can hear clearly, you are either from a girl, or you are a girl now, but no matter what, you will be a mother in the future, you will have your own children, what you need to teach your children is to tell them - as a girl, you must have 'self-respect, self-love and self-respect'." Only in this way will you be able to straighten your back in front of a man, and you don't have to whisper to him, and you will ask him to do anything. Don't you put your posture a little higher when you are a girl, and when you really marry someone and become someone else's daughter-in-law, will your posture still be able to put up?"
Lin silently wiped her tears: What are you doing, she is about to be trampled under Zhu Wu's feet.
"What happened to Mrs. Qian just now is the first time, and I hope it is the last time, no matter which of you are, you must remember that the girl in our family is noble, and if you want to marry the girl in our family, you have to 'beg' to come. Ye Yuran also said cruelly, "If anyone dares to secretly carry me behind my back and rush to send a girl to others, I will break her dog's legs." ”
Everyone responded with a "yes", even Lin Sanya and Lin Siya were no exception.
Especially in Lin Sanya's heart, there is a strange feeling, although the second sister was scolded by Aunt Zhu, it stands to reason that she is the second sister's own sister, she should stand on her second sister's side, and she should be angry, but I don't know why, but there is a warm feeling in her heart, as if she was "protected".
Thinking of the second sister just now, despite her reluctance and shame, she forcibly pulled her over and brought her to a strange old woman, so that the other party could look at her, that kind of embarrassing and angry feeling, she thought: She seems to like Aunt Zhu a little, how can she break it?
