Shen Shuangshuang looked at Chun Tao, and a flash of appreciation flashed in his eyes.

"It's good that you have a desire to learn. But literacy classes aren't for you. ”

Shen Shuangshuang thought about it.

"Well, you can wait for the second session of this literacy class. Wait for this group to go to class for the second time. ”

"When the time comes, they have a certain foundation, and if you go, the progress can match you."

Chun Tao's face was happy.

"Mrs. Xie!" Hurriedly thanked Shen Shuangshuang.

Shen Shuangshuang waved his hand again, signaling that Chun Tao did not need to be polite.

"By the way, Xia He can read, right? Same situation as you? ”

Shen Shuangshuang was asking, and there was movement outside.

Xia He brought hot water over.

Chun Tao saw Xia He coming over with hot water, and hurried to the door to help.

"Give me the water."

"Madame asks you something, you go quickly!" Spring peach rushed to the sweaty Xia He Road.

"Hmm." Xia He answered, gave the water to Chun Tao, and hurriedly walked towards Shen Shuangshuang.

"Ma'am." Walking not far from Shen Shuangshuang, Xia He Yingying saluted Shen Shuangshuang.

She sweated a lot, and she didn't dare to get too close to Shen Shuangshuang.

Shen Shuangshuang looked at Xia He and looked up and down at the new maid from his yard.

The little girl is fifteen or sixteen years old, with a small round face and ...... skin It should be a slight wheat color because of the sun.

Although not as lively and generous as Chun Tao, his temperament is also calm.

"Where's the man? Is there anyone else in the house? How old are you? Shen Shuangshuang asked three questions directly.

Chun Tao's girl is not from Shangyang Town or even Yongxian, but from Kyoto with Yan County's family.

The girl was sold by her family at the age of six, and she was bought by the Yan Mansion after a few rounds in the tooth shop.

Because her family sold her and never contacted her, she cut off contact with her family.

Because of these reasons, she attaches a little more importance to Chun Tao.

A person who has no home will be more in charge of the main family.

"The slave is from Kyoto. Home ...... There were also uncles and aunts and two cousins in the family, who were fifteen years old. Xia Heliu replied fearfully.

Shen's eyes fluctuated.

"You have a good relationship with Chun Tao?" Asked.

Xia He's body shrank for a moment, and his eyes looked at Chun Tao not far away.

I was worried that I would answer the wrong word and have a bad impact on my little sister.

Seeing this, Chun Tao smiled and put down the bucket that had been poured half of the water.

"Hehe, Xia He is a fellow slave. When I was in Yanfu before, I recognized her as my sister. ”

"Xiaohe, our lady is kind and amiable, and it hurts people very much, you don't need to be afraid."

"Madame asks, you answer!"

Shen Shuangshuang glanced at Chun Tao and did not refute Chun Tao's words.

There is no need to be too strict with the people in your own yard.

Xia He glanced at Shen Shuangshuang in awe, and saw Shen Shuangshuang smiling at him, and his mood was a lot lighter.

Xindao: It seems that she misunderstood Mrs. before. Although Madame often kept a straight face when she was in the workshop, she was actually very amiable.

"The slave maid and Sister Chun Tao are indeed sisters." So, Xia He responded.

Shen Shuangshuang glanced at Chun Tao again.

Chun Tao twisted the cloth towel that wiped her face and walked towards Shen Shuangshuang with a smile.

Shen Shuangshuang took a cloth towel to wipe his face.

Although the cloth towel was hot, after wiping it, the moisture on his face evaporated, and Shen Shuangshuang still felt a lot more comfortable.

Wiping his face, Shen Shuangshuang wiped his hands again, and then returned the cloth towel to Chun Tao.

"Just now, Chun Tao mentioned it to me, saying that she wanted you to go to a literacy class too. Can you read? He asked.

Xia He was a little surprised.

"No—it's not literate." Answer.

"What do you mean by 'literacy'?" Shen Shuangshuang was puzzled.

The little girl's face was swollen and red.

"Slave maid...... He doesn't know much and can only write his own name. ”

Shen Shuangshuang was almost amused.

"Do you want to go to a literacy class?" Asked.

The maid in the courtyard should be able to write and calculate, and it will be easier for her to use it.

Xia He looked up in surprise.

Then quickly nodded.

"Yes! Slave willing! ”

Shen Shuangshuang nodded in satisfaction.

"Then count yourself in."

Xia He surprises.

I looked up at Spring Peach.

"Why don't you thank you, ma'am?" Chun Tao smiled and prompted.

"Thank you, ma'am!" Xia He hurriedly saluted.

Shen Shuangshuang waved his hand.

"If you really want to thank Mrs. Ben, I will study hard after I go to the literacy class."

"You are now a girl in Mrs. Ben's yard, you can't lose Mrs. Ben's face."

Xia He suddenly became nervous.

"Yes." I didn't answer confidently.

Seeing this, Chun Tao looked at Xia He with a smile.

"Oh, Madame encourages you! When you enter the literacy class, you will work harder! ”

"If you don't understand something, you can ask Mr. more. If you feel inconvenient, you can take it back and ask me or ask my wife. As she spoke, Chun Tao also looked at Shen Shuangshuang.

Shen Shuangshuang glanced at Chun Tao and did not refute.

Xia He showed a happy little expression, and his shy little appearance made Shen Shuangshuang feel good.

After asking, Shen Shuangshuang got up.

"Changing clothes—" shouted with open arms.

The two girls looked at each other.

"Madame, let's go to the back room." Chun Tao smiled and said to Shen Shuangshuang.

At the same time, Xia He went to close the door.

Shen Shuangshuang glanced at the two girls and walked towards the back room.

Not long after, the two girls came, gave Shen Shuangshuang wide clothes together, scrubbed his body, and then changed into pajamas.

After wiping his body and changing into light pajamas, Shen Shuangshuang felt that the whole person was comfortable.

"Go to the kitchen and see if lunch is ready?" Shen Shuangshuang said.

"Yes!" Xia He should go down.

He took the tub out, cleaned up again, and went out with the water.

Chun Tao took the pu fan and continued to serve by Shen Shuangshuang's side.

Shen Shuangshuang came to the outside room and sat at the table waiting for dinner.

"By the way, the two gentlemen of Ming'er will go to Mongolia, and they will definitely bring their families and luggage."

"Later, you go to Steward Zhou and ask him to arrange for two people to wait at Mengxue early tomorrow morning. When the two gentlemen arrived, they helped carry their luggage and let them settle in. ”

"Yes." Chun Tao smiled and responded.

Shen Shuangshuang groaned slightly.

"I haven't decided with them yet. When they're settled, I'll have to meet them. ”

"Let's talk about it when we get to settle down."

"Mengxue is next to our Shen Mansion, the two gentlemen came here with their families, are you still afraid that they will run away?" Chun Tao smiled.

Shen Shuangshuang glanced at the girl.

"What do you know?"

"The hot pot restaurant branch will open after the Mid-Autumn Festival. Literacy classes start earlier so as not to affect the opening of branches. ”

"After discussing with the two gentlemen, I can arrange to buy textbooks here. Start literacy classes early. ”

"There is also a grocery store, I have already told the shopkeeper Liu of Chengji grocery store, and I will send someone to pull the goods the day after tomorrow. The goods have to be cleaned up and counted when they are pulled back. I haven't hired the shopkeeper of the grocery store yet. ”

"By the way, Ming'er's Carpenter Workshop needs a delivery rack and planks to ......."

"That's it...... Tomorrow, you can also go with me to Mengxue's side to guard. ”
