Shen Yunxi replied, "Because everyone calls you Yanzi." Now we're going to get rid of the lice from you. There are two ways to do this. One is to use a drug on your head to poison the lice, but it may not kill the lice completely. It may take several times to kill lice, which is quite cumbersome. Another way is to shave your head straight and take a medicated bath. Which one will you choose?"

Swallow thought for a moment and heard the brothers next door shaving their heads. "Madam, please shave your head directly, lest the lice stain it, make trouble, and delay the master's work."

No one wants to have a filthy servant at home!

Since she wants to live here in the future, Swallow thinks that she should think more about her master's family so that he can treat them well.

Previously, they got dirty not only because of the harsh environment, but also because they were women. If they are white, they will be robbed.

They deliberately stained their bodies, stinked and blackened their faces. They looked like they were sick and the others hid when they saw them.

Now that they're safe, of course they want to be clean and fragrant.

Shen Yunxi was stunned. She asked Xiuli and Xiuzhu to cut their hair. They don't want to do that. It took several times to get the lice off my head.

"Okay, then scrape it off. It's easy. I will prepare a beautiful calico for you to wear on your head. You don't have to worry about being seen bald. Shen Yunxi smiled and comforted her gently.

After the shaver had finished shaving the hair of the boys over there, he came to shave the heads of the maids.

Hair and clothes were also burned, and the anti-tick operation was a quick success.

They got new clothes. Although they don't fit in and never wear new clothes, so they're happy now.

Swallow looks ten years old, but she's twelve.

It's just that because I can't eat enough, I often starve and become shorter.

At this time, she was wearing a wide dress, bright pink, and she was also beautiful in her eyes.

Her rough little hands gently touched her clothes, as if she was afraid that the rough skin on her hands would stain them.

Shen Yunxi looked at everyone and said softly, "There are not many rules in our family. It's okay to joke or play. I can also teach you to read. But there is one thing I will never allow, and that is betrayal. If you have a better place to stay, you can tell me and I can let you go. But you can't be a traitor to our family. If there is, I won't forgive you either. ”

Brother Biao Gouzi had long seen Shen Yunxi's strength, and they were very satisfied with their current life.

It is rare to be well fed and clothed, and to live in a big house without being bullied.

The two men knelt on the ground, swore an oath, and fell to the ground. "Madam, Biaozi swears to the sky, if I betray my master in the future, I will be thundered by the sky!"

When the children in the back saw their brother kneeling, they followed him to his knees.

Yanzi looked up at Shen Yunxi and said, "Madam, you gave us a way to live. Absolute loyalty to the owner and never betrayal. If you break your oath, you will not die a good death. ”

Shen Yunxi nodded and said with a smile: "Get up!" Don't kneel! After a busy day, everyone was hungry. Come and eat!"

Shen Yunxi's family sat at the big table, and the other two small bamboo tables were bought for the children.

For dinner, Shen Yunxi does not cook meat dishes directly. Don't dare to put too much oil in the vegetarian dishes.

Even the plain hand-rolled noodles are popular.

They can eat clean food instead of someone else's leftovers.

No rancidity, no odor, especially delicious.

The big bowl for the big kids and the small bowl for the little ones are gone after eating.

It's not because Shen Yunxi is reluctant to give them food, but because he is afraid that they will eat too much when they are hungry and hurt their stomachs.

After dinner, it was still very bright, and Shen Yunxi began to teach everyone to read.

It was dark, and everyone was not sleepy, so Shen Yunxi told us the story again.

Shen Yunxi talks about strange people, strange things, simple and easy to understand.

Through stories like this, we can understand the methods and principles of being a person and doing things.

When the children were about to fall asleep, Shen Yunxi smiled and said, "Let's stop here today." Let's go back and rest!"

"Yes, ma'am!" Biaozi and the pillar stood up and bowed. The other children followed.

Zheng Guizhen said gently: "I was worried that it would be difficult to take in these children, but now it seems that they are very sensible."
