Chapter 586: Blessing Nest
And on the side of Saibei, when Ning Laosan and Wang Shi were in office, they sneezed a few times every once in a while, and a few times every once in a while.
Ning Laosan and Wang couldn't help but smile bitterly, they didn't have to guess, they knew that it must be the old lady scolding the two of them!
Wang Shi twisted Ning Laosan fiercely, and said with a worried brow.
"If my mother is disgusted with me as a daughter-in-law, you are the only one who asks."
"Hey, daughter-in-law, don't you know that among the daughters-in-law, your mother loves you the most?
Don't worry, there are a few stinky boys who are doing their filial piety for us in front of my mother's knees, and my mother will not blame you.
By the way, are you going to leave the house tomorrow? ”
After arriving here, Wang, who was bored in the house, walked around the street and scribbled in the house when he came back, and he didn't know what he was thinking?
"Third child, look, this is what I'm going to do next."
Hearing Ning Laosan's inquiry, Wang Shi excitedly handed the paper with some crooked and ugly words written in his hand in front of him and said.
"Uh, literacy programs?
Daughter-in-law, what does this mean? ”
Ning Laosan looked at the crooked words, a little blind, but he understood the top words.
However, I understood the words, but I didn't understand the meaning.
"You see, you're going to be on duty in a few days, so I'll be left alone at home, and I'll be bored.
So, I thought, do some small business and earn some pocket money.
However, my mother said that to do business, you must know how to use people.
You can't tie yourself to the threshold of doing business, otherwise, you have to tire yourself to death.
I think what my mother said makes a lot of sense, so I went to buy some people back first, and then taught them to read and count.
I don't want them to be very knowledgeable, as long as they can read the ledger. ”
"Eh, daughter-in-law, do you want to do business here?"
Ning Laosan scratched his forehead and asked a little puzzled.
"yes, what's wrong?"
Wang Shi glanced at Ning Laosan, and then asked.
"Hehe, our family is not short of those three melons and two dates, can you stay at home and enjoy your happiness?"
Ning Laosan saw Wang's leaning at him, and immediately stepped forward with a hippie smile, hugged his daughter-in-law and said.
"Hey, we're the life of toil.
After resting for a day or two, I feel that I am relaxing and enjoying myself.
But if I just stay at home every day and do nothing, I'm going to be miserable. ”
Wang replied angrily.
Thinking back to her previous in the big locust tree village, she was the one who was in charge of the whole village!
At that time, she got up early every day and felt dark, but she felt that her life was very fulfilling, and she didn't feel tired at all.
"But Saibei is not as good as our side, at least for now, it hasn't snowed yet!
But this Saibei, as soon as you open the door, you can scrape the snowflakes on your face.
When I go out, if nothing else, this heavy snow, large patches of snow falling, it is estimated that it will take less than a day to pile up to knee-high snow.
I'm not worried that you're afraid of the cold, I'm afraid you'll freeze to death! ”
When Wang heard Ning Laosan's words, his originally tense face relaxed slightly.
"This cold also has the benefit of being cold, at least the food that is made is not so easy to spoil.
Moreover, it was because it was so cold and bitter here that I wanted to do something. ”
Ning Laosan didn't expect that Wang would say this, and he was stunned for a moment.
"In the past, I myself suffered from illiteracy, and I didn't know much about the bookkeeping myself."
Speaking of this, Wang couldn't help but sigh a little.
Also, she felt that she had learned so fast before because someone was competing with her.
Therefore, teaching a gentleman who is invited by the time anyway is also teaching, so it is better to teach a few more!
Speaking of this, Wang didn't wait for Ning Laosan to ask again, just stared, and Ning Laosan immediately swallowed back what he wanted to object.
Thinking about what the daughter-in-law said, it seems to be right.
Stay at home every day, don't do anything, and good people have to be tossed badly.
Seeing that Ning Laosan acquiesced, Wang's was visibly much happier.
The next day, Wang thought about what his mother-in-law had done when the Ning family was still poor.
At the beginning, the copper coins of the Ning family were eager to be broken into two petals.
But now, his own man is an official.
And in his own hands, there is no shortage of silver, which should be much easier than when his mother-in-law was at that time.
Therefore, Wang directly took the mother-in-law next to him and went to the tooth shop in the city together.
"Madame, do you want to buy a maid? Or do you want to buy people? ”
Seeing Wang Shi coming in with a mother-in-law, the tooth man in the city immediately greeted him with a smile.
"Is there any difference between a maid and a servant?"
Wang Shi blinked his eyes, and he didn't understand what was the reason for this toothed man's question?
"That's right, ma'am, if you want to buy maids, I recommend using younger ones, so that it is convenient for the people in the house to train them.
If you buy one to do heavy work, then buy one of those servants who are five big and three thick, and have great strength. ”
"What is the price of these people?"
Wang Shi thought for a moment and asked again.
"It's not expensive, if it's the kind of child who is less than fifteen years old, it's all seven taels of silver.
If it is the kind of man in the prime of life, then it is nine taels of silver.
If it is those servant women, it will only cost eight taels. ”
"That little child, for seven taels of silver?"
When Wang heard the words of the tooth man, his voice involuntarily rose twice.
"Madam, most of these children under the age of fifteen are very good-looking.
If it is sold elsewhere, the price will be even higher, but it will be as little as seven taels of silver. ”
The tooth man replied with a smile.
Hearing the hidden words of the tooth man, Wang's face couldn't help but darken.
However, now although there is a war on the side of Saibei, the Great Jin Dynasty has won.
But in the same way, the people in several cities near Saibei can't survive at all.
Therefore, many families, hungry to the end, can only sell themselves, hoping to have a good master, and then eat a full meal.
The Wang family bought these people back, which can be regarded as a kind of creation of these people.
In the end, Wang bought a family of four and two servant women in their thirties who looked as old as their forties.
The family of four is a couple in their twenties, plus a father in his forties and a nine-year-old child.
After paying the money, he took the deed of sale of these people and went to the government office to register.
Then he took these people and went back to his house.
These people followed behind Wang in a panic.
When they returned to the house, Wang first frowned and asked them to shave all their hair to prevent lice.
After shaving their hair, let them take a shower and change into new cotton clothes.
Let them eat again, rest for a good night, and when the next day, when the six people saw Wang, they all knelt down and kowtowed to her.
"Thank you, ma'am, thank you, ma'am!"
After yesterday's series of events, as well as the clean quilt they slept on, these six people only felt that they had fallen into a blessed nest.
