Chapter 9 Who Are You Going to Sell?
Zhang sighed and pulled Shen Xingwan back to the room to comfort her, "I don't know if you can't live in it, I have changed the bedding clean." ”
"Miss." Banxia immediately came up to wait, and asked Zhang again, "Hello, madam." ”
Zhang's face was calm, and he responded politely, but in fact, he didn't know what to put his hands and feet for a moment.
The atmosphere was a little awkward, and the Zhang family wanted to get close to their snowy daughter but didn't know where to start.
Fortunately, Shen Tang came in with a pot of hot water, put it on the ground and pointed to the wooden basin and washing tools on the side, "It's not early, you can rest after washing with hot water." ”
"Thank you, father." Shen Xingwan responded obediently.
Shen Tang smiled, pulled Zhang away, and closed the door by the way.
Back in the room where they slept, Zhang couldn't help but sigh, "What will I do in the future?" ”
"What to do?" Shen Tang poured a glass of cold water and poured it down.
"That child was born so well, and looks like the little fairy in the painting, are you really willing to let her wash clothes, cook, chop wood, cut pigweed, and even go to the ground like Erya and Sanya?" Zhang gave him a blank look.
Shen Tang groaned, "Jingyi hadn't done this before, so naturally she didn't need to do it when it was Xing's turn." ”
"That said, are the rest of the Shen family so easy to deal with?"
The Zhang family understood that now Shen Xingwan was a piece of fragrant bread, and the Shen family couldn't wait to pounce on it and take a bite.
When the Hou Mansion comes back, no one will believe that she is really penniless.
Shen Tang said with a serious expression, "There will always be a way, she is willing to come back, and my father, naturally I am reluctant to let her be wronged!" ”
This night was destined to be uneasy for the Shen family, and all rooms closed their doors and muttered until late at night before falling asleep.
The next day, Shen Xingwan and Banxia had just gotten up from bed, washed up and dressed.
The fourth aunt, Gao, pushed the door in directly, and kept looking around the room with her eyes, wanting to see the good things that Shen Xingwan had brought back.
"Fourth aunt, do you have something wrong?" Shen Xingwan asked.
Gao, who didn't see anything, pouted dissatisfiedly, "Your grandmother called you over, and I have something to discuss with you." ”
As he spoke, his eyes swept over Banxia's body to reveal a satisfied look, "This girl will go with you too." ”
"Miss..."Banxia looked uneasy.
Both of them knew in their hearts that the conditions of the Shen family did not allow the existence of the maid, and it was a question of where to go after Banxia.
"It's okay, I have my own plans."
Shen Xingwan looked down at his little fat hand, straightened his back and raised his head and walked towards the main room, no matter what, he couldn't lose his momentum.
As soon as Shen Xingwan entered, Zhang's sharp eyes saw her and beckoned to her, "Come to my mother late." ”
"Mother~" Shen Xingwan returned with a big smile and stood next to Zhang.
Old Lady Shen and Li never took their eyes off her since they entered the door in Banxia, and swept from beginning to end as if they were looking at goods.
"Ahem." Old Mrs. Shen coughed twice pretendedly, "Tonight, my good granddaughter, grandma will discuss something for you." ”
Old Lady Shen squeezed out a loving smile on her mean and shriveled face, and looked at Shen Xingwan with burning eyes.
"Grandma, you say." Shen Xingwan said very cooperatively.
"That's right, since you have entered the door of the Shen family, you must follow the rules of the Shen family. Our Shen family doesn't have a saying about raising maids, so let's sell this little maid you brought. Old Madam Shen said quickly.
She has already asked the fourth child to find someone she knows well, and she is worthy of being a girl from the Hou Mansion, and she can sell it for a good price at a glance.
Shen Xingwan asked innocently, "Does grandma want me to sell it for half a summer?" ”
Old Mrs. Shen nodded, "I sold grandma to buy you candy to eat." ”
"Mother, you can't do this!" Zhang let out an angry voice.
Old Lady Shen snorted unremittingly, "Why can't you?" If you enter our Shen family, you have to listen to me, isn't it just a maid, what can't you sell? ”
"It's okay if you don't sell it, you take twenty taels of silver out, and then hand over five taels of silver every month as the food money for this maid in the Shen family."
Old Lady Shen opened her mouth, she decided that Shen Xingwan must have brought a lot of silver back, either selling the maid or spitting out the silver little by little!
"But Banxia is not my maid." Shen Xingwan blinked.
"Children who lie will be struck by lightning." Gao snorted coldly.
Zhang's heart was anxious that Shen Tangtian would go to the town before dawn and buy some daily necessities for Shen Xingwan, afraid that she would not be used to it, and also wanted to compensate her daughter.
Unexpectedly, the old lady couldn't wait to make trouble, and she was afraid that it would be difficult to stop her alone.
Mrs. Shen pretended to coax and said, "Are you reluctant to talk nonsense about this girl later, then you can give the silver, and you won't sell her if you give the silver." ”
Zhang's eyes closed, and he stood up suddenly, "I don't agree if I want to sell people." ”
Putting on a posture that whoever dares to come up will fight with whomever she wants, her daughter has only come back on the first day, and she can't let her chill.
Shen Xingwan's heart warmed, at least he was willing to defend her.
"Grandma, what I said is true, Banxia is the eldest maid next to my other mother, Mrs. Houfu, who was just sent to take care of me for a while, and I will go back in the future." Shen Xingwan lied without blinking his eyes, and did not take advantage of Houfu Fox's fake tiger power without any weakness.
Banxia has also been carefully trained, and she has seen the maid of the world by the side of the original owner.
quickly reacted, and half-squatted to salute Mrs. Shen, "Madame is not worried about Miss, so she specially sent me to take care of her for a period of time, and report Miss's situation to her in the Hou Mansion." ”
Old Mrs. Shen was dumbfounded, and glanced at the Li family, not knowing for a moment whether what they said was true or false.
"Miss, don't worry, the Su family is not unpopular in Jiangnan." Banxia took out the momentum of the eldest lady of the Hou Mansion and said without being humble or arrogant, "It's a big deal, I'll go back to the Su family for help." ”
Li's eyes flashed, he had been in town with her husband, who was studying, for many years, and had seen some of the world.
The Su family, who knew the corners of Banxia's mouth, was one of the famous clans in Jiangnan.
It's not something they can provoke, and I feel a little regretful in my heart, and it seems that this matter can't be done.
"Banxia, if I'm not mistaken, Mama used to say that it is illegal to buy and sell official slaves and maids without permission." Shen Xingwan said in a crisp voice, "If I'm not mistaken, your deed of sale is still in the Hou Mansion." ”
Old Madam Shen drooped her eyelids and didn't speak, of course she could do whatever she wanted with Shen Xingwan's maid, she couldn't handle an eight-year-old girl's film?
But the people around Mrs. Hou, she really didn't dare to move.
At this time, the flowery branches worn by the princess came to the door, and as soon as she entered the door, she said enthusiastically, "Who is the old lady going to sell today?" ”
His eyes unconsciously looked over the girls in the house, and when he saw Shen Xing's eyes, his eyes began to light up when he saw it, this is definitely a good seedling!
