This year's New Year, because Xu Ya came, Miao Ju still has a bit of a New Year's meaning. The mother-in-law of the book lover building cleaned the courtyard, and the little maid was busy helping to fetch water and pour water.

Xu Ya took a few mothers-in-law to fry croquettes and boil sugar melons in the kitchen. In Liaodong, the small year is boiled with sugar. But here, you can't get it. It's too hot, and the sugar boiled well, and it's in vain.

Yue Xuanyuan is not as gentleman as a gentleman, he is by his side, no matter how you pick up and push, he is standing without moving. In the kitchen, there were still many mothers-in-law, Xu Ya thought about it, but gave up and didn't pick him up again.

He took the rodish foam chopped by the mother-in-law, and added minced meat, rice, and tofu to it. Yue Xuanyuan looked at all this, as if he was back two years ago. This time, I didn't use Xu Ya, turned around and walked out of the kitchen by myself.

Xu Ya originally wanted him to help pour some soybean oil, but he was stunned for a moment when he saw his actions, and then looked at the mother-in-law opposite and said:

"Pour some oil."

The mother-in-law walked over, picked up the soybean oil bucket, and carefully poured oil into it. Xu Ya watched while talking, and after enough, the mother-in-law stopped, put down the soybean oil barrel, and said:

"The second girl came over this year, and we also fried meatballs and fried noodles and fish this year."

"Isn't it like this when you prepare for the New Year? So how did you celebrate the New Year? Xu Ya wants to know more about the eldest sister, in the past two years, she has rarely come over for the sake of the factory, except for normal communication with this side, almost nothing.

Now that such a good opportunity is really worth asking.

When the mother-in-law heard this, she sighed lightly and said, "The second girl doesn't know, the old slave is the person who has been in Miaoju for the longest time, and it has been a year and a half. Every year in the new year, the girl went out, and in the first year, Steward Qin was not in good health and did not run the house much. ”

"The second year was better, let everyone sprinkle and clean up, but this croquette, fried noodle fish or something, still haven't gotten it. The New Year is also gloomy, mainly because the girl doesn't smile and doesn't come out in the boudoir. ”

Xu Ya nodded understandingly, it seems that the fifth brother is still carrying these subordinates behind his back. But it's right to think about it, the fifth brother and the eldest sister are not married, and it is not good to appear in front of everyone so blatantly.

But this one doesn't feel good, it must be that the fifth brother thinks it's not good, and his eldest sister ...... I won't be so worried.

The meatball noodles are reconciled, and the lid is awake. Put oil and other oil in the pot to open the croquettes, which is in Liaodong, she made it herself. Although the family also bought a family of four as servants, but during the New Year's holidays, their brothers still like to do it themselves.

The oil temperature was just right, Xu Ya was preparing croquettes, Qin Qian walked in from outside, clasped his fists and saluted, and said:

"Second girl, the younger one is going out to buy a girl for the eldest girl, look ......"

"I'll go with you." Xu Ya said, took off his apron, took a rag to wipe his hands, and said, "You wait for me, I'll go back and change my clothes, this body smells of oil smoke." ”

"Hey, you're busy, I'll be waiting for you at the door." Qin Qian said, turned around and went out.

Xu Ya came out of the kitchen and saw Yue Xuanyuan standing in the gazebo from afar. After glancing at it, he hurried back to the house. I found a suit of clothes to change by myself, and then I went out of the room again.

When she came, she told Qin Qian, and when she was picking a girl for her eldest sister, she followed. She doesn't agree with the matter of changing a girl for a month, and hopes that this time the eldest sister can stay with the girl for a longer time because she picked it and looked at her face.

Personal maids, always familiar with the use of handy, every month to change a strange, when can the heart knot be opened? When he came to the door, Steward Qin was already waiting there, nodding at him, Qin Qian came over, made a "please" gesture, and said:

"Girl, carriage."

Xu Ya went down the stairs, stepped on the stool and carriage, and after sitting firmly, the carriage walked slowly. The inside of the car was very clean and there was everything. She knew that this was the eldest sister sitting when they went out to check the accounts.

The mats are all soft, and under the table is a charcoal stove for boiling water and making tea. Leaning on the carriage, my mind kept thinking about how to persuade the eldest sister. This time, she left her family's factory and came over, in large part because of her eldest sister.

After the New Year, the eldest sister is twenty years old, and the fifth brother is also twenty or eight, and they are not young anymore. If you don't get married, the fifth brother can't stand the pressure, not to mention, it's the eldest sister's side...... She's going to have to be anxious.

Since Ouyang Minrui's incident broke out in the village, Ouyang Zixuan no longer has to pretend to be the eldest sister. Originally, they thought that Ouyang Zixuan was not a good person, but they didn't expect her to die with her ambition, and with her understanding, Xu Ya chose to believe her.

And Ouyang Zixuan is even stronger, and directly changed his name to Xu Zixuan, often accompanying his brother to solve his business troubles. The family and the village also found out at this moment that the eldest sister had disappeared for a long time.

Faced with the questioning of Shan, Aunt Li, and the third uncle, she had to tell them the whole story. But the result of this is ...... Every day, I have to face these people's questions.

Ask when the eldest sister will get married, and ask when the eldest sister will come back......

The carriage stopped, the curtain opened, and the servant took out the stool and put it on the ground. Xu Ya retracted her emotions and bent down to get out of the carriage. followed Qin Qian to the courtyard, and a man came over, clasped his fists and saluted and said with a smile:

"Ouch, Steward Qin, here you go again, rude and rude, disrespectful."

Qin Qian nodded, pointed at Xu Ya and said respectfully: "This is our second girl, who came to pick a girl for the eldest girl." The old rule, you go to Zhang Luoren, I will take our two girls to the house and wait for you. ”

"Hey, that's good, you and I know each other, so I'm out of company first." After the man finished speaking, he nodded at Xu Ya and said, "The second girl is at her own convenience, and the little one will come over to serve in a while." ”

"You're busy." After Xu Ya finished speaking, he followed Qin Qian inside. Walk through the courtyard and come to the second courtyard, which is a lot cleaner.

The place where the tooth is stunned is called the tooth shop, and the tooth shop is divided into three places: selling houses, selling land and selling people. In the front yard just now, people should buy and sell houses or land, and these two courtyards are the places to choose girls for large families.

Coming to a living room, although the furnishings in the house are simple, they are still there. A girl came over with a teapot, poured tea for both of them, curtsied, turned and went out again.

After waiting for a long time, there was a sound of footsteps outside, and the man walked in, clasped his hands into fists, and said enthusiastically:

"It's mine to keep you two waiting. Come in, girls. ”

After saying this, a row of girls walked in outside, all dressed in a simple and decent manner, Xu Ya was stunned when she looked at it. Qin Qian stood beside her, muttered quietly, and said:

"The eldest girl has instructed to pick a girl, a girl from a peasant family, and those who have not been trained by a large family are preferred."

When Xu Ya heard this, he turned his head and looked at him in surprise, seeing that he nodded firmly to himself, and did not insist on anything. Normally, the eldest sister decides things, and it is really difficult for her to change.

got up and walked up to these girls, and looked at them one by one and knew that they were all ordinary children. The eyes are dull, but they are very simple. It's okay to look good, except that the complexion is a little dark.

After walking around, none of them caught the eye, not how high her vision was, this personal maid always had to take out to meet people. Besides, the business that the eldest sister does, and the people she comes into contact with are all the wives of big families, so it seems that she is ...... to take such a girl out.

"Anything else?" He looked up and asked the man.

As soon as the man heard this, he immediately nodded and said, "Yes, how can it not be, the girl didn't see it, right, then I'll give you Zhang Luo again." So saying, he went out with the group.

Qin Qian walked over, clasped his fists and saluted, and said: "Second girl, the eldest girl will not employ people for more than a month, a girl is good, she has lasted for thirty days, you are ......"

"Steward Qin, every time you pick my eldest sister, how do you pick it?" Xu Ya didn't get it, if it was according to her standards, it was estimated that it would be difficult to pick it even in the dark, so it was better to ask and make a decision.

Qin Qian smiled, pointed outside, and said, "The little one picks a girl for the big girl, and you can pick one at random." The darker, the uglier the better. ”

"Why?" Xu Ya was surprised, what is this? What's going on?

"Second girl, I don't understand." Steward Qin explained with a smile, "Every time I pick someone for the eldest girl, the eldest girl will take her to the shop for a turn." Then I will give her something like Eshan's balm, and after half a month, the basic face will be raised, and then she will go out for a spin. ”

Belch......

When Xu Ya heard this, she immediately understood what her sister meant.

The slogan of Ishanda is: Give you a makeover. Now she has a peasant girl by her side, and she changes it every month, although it seems to be expensive, but it is ......

"And every time the girl changes, she will give a girl twenty taels of silver and a deed." After Qin Qian's words, Xu Ya felt even more ashamed.

The eldest sister is not tossing, but helping these peasant girls, it seems that the gap between her and the eldest sister is ...... There are still any! Use the people around her to do publicity, create income for the shop, and save the girl of a good family, she really doesn't have this mind!

The man came in again, still with some rural girls behind him. After Xu Ya swept them this time, she asked a few questions.

It's basically what it was supposed to do, why it was sold here, and so on. Most of the people answered the same thing, they were all sick in the family and had no money for treatment, so they had to sell their bodies for money to see a doctor, and a small number of them were the kind of people who sold their bodies to bury their parents (parents).

Looking at them, thinking of himself who had no family money, Xu Ya was quite touched. From the beginning to the end, and from the end to the end, the second girl on the left is obviously different from those, her eyes have always followed Xu Ya, and she has never left.

"You."

After Xu Ya finished speaking, Qin Qian came over, clasped his fists and saluted, and said, "Second girl, why don't you take a look, this girl...... Too much thought is not appropriate. ”
