Chapter 224: Poor mother and daughter

As soon as Xia Qiyue's carriage entered the alley, a fat aunt greeted her with a smile.

"This girl, you're going to buy a maid... Also, do you still sell your children? ”

The second half of the sentence is to see two little heads sticking out of the car window, both of which are female babies, so I stammered and asked.

Xia Qiyue parked the carriage and hugged the three little ones out of the car before looking at the fat aunt, "Buy a maid and a rough mother-in-law!" ”

As for what kind of grandmother she doesn't consider, a village family, she also needs a few rough mothers-in-law to help clean up the house yard, laundry and cooking, etc., the maid is to follow the personal service, no need for any grandmother.

"Hey! Oops! Little lady in the house please! "The fat aunt is happy, there has been no business for a few days, and finally someone came over, don't sell people, she can't afford to raise it!

That's right, Xia Qiyue is looking for a tooth shop all the way, she wants to buy people, and there are only people who sell people here, and there is no other business like renting land for rent.

Xia Qiyue took the three children into the yard, but she didn't mean to enter the house, the fat tooth woman cleverly moved a chair out for Xia Qiyue to sit on, and then asked someone to make tea and send it.

"Little lady, you're going to buy a few rough mothers-in-law and maids, right? Are there any special requirements? ”

Xia Qiyue thought for a while, "There are no requirements for the rough mother-in-law, just be healthy, as for the maid, it would be best if she could be literate, and in one is, it would be better to have a young one, and I want to find a maid for the three children to grow up with, to be smart!" ”

Xia Qiyue didn't say that she wanted to marry a maid, because she had been in this world for half a year, and she could not accept a man with three wives and four concubines, If she could, it would be best if her daughter could meet a man who was devoted to her in the future.

Even if she can't, she doesn't want to train any dowry maids for her daughter, if this man's heart is not in you, then you don't have to marry, and she can't afford to raise her daughter for a lifetime.

The fat tooth woman's eyes lit up, and it seemed that the little lady in front of her was a big customer, and there was more than one person who bought it.

"Yes, yes, yes! Both! Wait a minute, little lady, I'll call everyone out for you to choose! ”

As he spoke, he staggered and ran to the backyard, and not long after, a series of women and children walked out.

There are five or six-year-old children, eight or nine years old, teenage girls, women in their thirties, and forty or fifty-year-old mothers-in-law, these people have one thing in common, that is, thin, all of them have yellow muscles and thin muscles.

When Xia Qiyue was wondering why there was no man, the fat girl finally led five little boys out, all of whom looked less than ten years old.

"Little lady, you can choose whatever you want, there are five boys here who are suitable for the little master to be long-term followers!"

Sure enough, Xia Qiyue found out that because she didn't say that she wanted any nursing home, Ya Pozi didn't bring it out, not nothing.

Xia Qiyue nodded, and then looked at the people who were already standing in a row waiting for her to choose.

She has no time to grieve for these people, because this world is this kind of law of survival, the supremacy of imperial power, the low status of women, and she alone can't change these three views at all.

"Mother, are we going to take them home?" Ke'er stood obediently next to her mother at first, because there were so many people coming out, the little girl couldn't be quiet for a while, and asked out loud, and the little eyes had already observed these people.

Xia Qiyue shook his head, "Don't bring them all back, choose two rough mothers-in-law from these people, and then choose a few maids to bring back!" Ke'er, Ling'er, Xuan'er, you pick yourself, one for each person, which one you like! ”

Xia Qiyue gave the choice to the three children, and in the future, they will be their own personal maids, and they have to like it.

Kerr's eyes lit up, "Really?" Then I like that little sister! ”

Not polite at all, let alone stage fright, pointed to a little girl who looked six or seven years old on the far edge of the queue in front of him, and then looked at his mother, "Is it okay, mother?" ”

Xia Qiyue looked in the direction of her finger, it is needless to say that she is thin, there is no fat person present, but the little girl pointed by Ling'er has smart eyes, and her little face is enough to sign, and she is a little clever ghost at first glance.

Xia Qiyue nodded: "Of course you can!" ”

Ke'er immediately ran to the little girl, "Come home with me!" ”

Hold the little girl's little hand and pull the person to her mother's side.

But the little girl pulled a woman in her thirties with her other hand and didn't let go.

"Little girl, go! Looking at the little master's good dealing, you must be better off going with it than here! Although the woman next to her was reluctant in her eyes, she still pulled out the girl's hand and said.

"But mother, the little girl doesn't want to leave her mother..."The little girl who was pulled by Ke'er turned back three times in one step, but she didn't want to leave her mother.

Xia Qiyue thought that Ke'er would let go of Xiaoya's hand and choose something else.

But she didn't want to, Ke'er insisted on holding her hand and coaxed people, "We have beef jerky at home!" There are so many delicious things, too! I've got candy for you! ”

As he spoke, he spread out his little hand in front of Xiaoya, and there was a nougat in his palm.

The little girl who watched couldn't help swallowing her saliva, and several children and even adults standing behind them swallowed their saliva.

They only have two meals a day, and they are all porridge with some water, and they can't eat enough at all. And it's candy.

When the fat girl saw the nougat, her eyes lit up immediately, she knew the nougat, and she also had a luxury, and bought it for her grandson once, which was precious, and she felt distressed.

"Little girl, hurry up and thank you, Miss!" The mother of the little girl standing behind her was still stunned when she saw her daughter, and she didn't go to take the candy or speak, and she was a little anxious.

Xia Qiyue also wondered, she looked quite clever just now, how did it become like this now.

But in the next second, Xiaoya let go of Ke'er's hand, ran to Xia Qiyue, and knelt down when she arrived.

"Madam, Xiaoya likes Miss and is willing to serve Miss, can you beg Madame to buy Xiaoya's mother too?" Xiaoya is the only one left in this world! There are no other relatives, and the mother only has one child left, if the little girl is gone, the mother will be old and helpless, please Mrs., take us in! ”

After saying that, he kowtowed, and soon, his little forehead turned red.

The woman standing behind couldn't stand it anymore, so she ran over, knelt down as well, and hugged her daughter crying.

The mother and daughter fled from the famine, and their families died along the way, leaving the mother and daughter behind, and they really couldn't sell themselves and had to survive for a while.

"Mother, you also beg Madame, the little girl doesn't want to be separated from you, mother!"

Xia Qiyue didn't speak for a while, looking at the mother and daughter in front of him, and also wanted to see Ke'er's choice.

Although the fat girl has been a maid for most of her life, her heart is still soft, and when she saw that the main family was not angry, she did not step forward to stop her, if the mother and daughter could be bought together, it would be a good thing.
