Chapter Ninety-Nine: Two Maidens

"Grandma, don't worry about me, although I'm alone, but you see that I've been fine for so many years, and I've learned skills, but I'm busy cultivating these days, I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of you. ”

"Silly boy, what are you talking about. I, I've lived alone all these years, and I've eaten more salt than you've ever eaten rice, so what's there to take care of?"

This little girl is so funny, with a tender face, old-fashioned, although ordinary people like her should be married, but in the eyes of Mrs. Yu, this is still a little doll, so she said that she wants to take care of herself.

"Hehe, I think I'm pretty good. Bai Lu smiled, and then said: "Grandma, I originally wanted to stay by your side and take care of you all the time, but I have to retreat often, so I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of you, I thought about it, it's better to buy a maid and come back to take care of you, so that I can rest assured." ”

"That's not it, I don't like to be served by others, I work hard all my life, you fix yours, I fix mine, it's good. ”

"Don't, grandma, if I have been thinking about you in my heart, I will go crazy!" Bai Lu exaggeratedly said, grandma is so old, she has to cook and wash her own food or something, if she accidentally falls, what can I do. Although I can be cured by pills, I still have to suffer some suffering.

Seeing that Yu Shenpo's face was a little loose, Bai Lu then took out a large handful of silver tickets and said, "Grandma, look, your granddaughter, I am not short of money! Isn't it a fool to live a hard life with gold and silver!"

Bai Lu gave the silver ticket in his hand to Yu Shenpo, who was stunned and took it, roughly counted it and said, "Good girl, this is five thousand taels of silver, Xiao Lu'er, where did you get the silver?"

"My master gave it. Bai Lu made it up casually.

After hearing this, Mrs. Yu didn't ask why she had money and went to the Xue family to be a maid, but said: "Xiao Lu'er, I know that you have great ability and are also a kind-hearted child, I hope you will not do anything to be a traitor in your life, and keep your heart." You have to remember that the heavens are clear, and the retribution is unpleasant, these words. She knew that Bai Lu was a pure child now, but now she had more power than ordinary people, and if she couldn't keep her greed and go astray, her life would be ruined.

Bai Lu smiled and nodded: "Grandma, why did you say this? Who I am, don't you know yet! In my heart, only cultivation is the most important." Anything else, it's not a necessity for me!"

Yu Shenpo returned the silver ticket in her hand to Bai Lu, thought about it for a while, and said: "Although you have your own silver ticket, I heard people say when I was young that it takes countless money to practice martial arts, let alone an immortal cultivator like you." You might as well take the money yourself. Grandma really doesn't need to be taken care of. ”

"Grandma, we don't need this kind of mundane silver for cultivating immortals, have you ever seen a fairy wearing gold and silver, find a little girl to take care of you, I can rest assured, you can also relax, you can spend more effort on cultivation, maybe grandma can also be an old immortal!"

Mrs. Yu's face was full of laugh lines amused by Bai Lu, and her usually serious face became kind and cute. "It's all up to you, it's all up to you!" said Yu Shenpo with a smile as she patted Bai Lu's little tender hand.

"That's it, I'll go to town later, there were some things that I didn't buy yesterday, so I did it together today. Bai Lu breathed a sigh of relief, it was normal for the old man to work hard all his life and not want someone to serve him, but he was busy cultivating, but fortunately, his grandmother agreed, otherwise he was worried about things in his heart, and he was also sad.

Bai Lu, who had told her grandmother, was ready to take advantage of the fact that she was still free, said hello to Yu Shenpo and drove the donkey cart to the town.

This time she went directly to West Street, and yesterday she saw a tooth shop here, you can go in and have a look.

The tooth row is in the innermost part of West Street. The faΓ§ade is cleaner than the other shops, and it looks almost as opulent as the shops on Main Street. Bai Lu looked at it for a moment, and saw that there were well-dressed servants coming in and out, some with poor faces and children, and some of them looking like ordinary wealthy families. It seems that the business of this house is not bad, and it is also a more honest businessman.

Bai Lu had never had the experience of buying and selling human beings before, especially when she was really in the big world of the earth, she was influenced by the law, and she still agreed with the law very much, so she was a little resistant to buying a maid to go back now, as an immortal cultivator, although she didn't look down on mortals, but she didn't feel sorry for mortals again, she just didn't put them in her eyes.

"Yo, little girl, what's the matter with coming in, you don't want to sell yourself!" Sister-in-law Zhu Hua, who was guarding the door, her eyes lit up, she hadn't seen such a good-looking girl for a while, and the one last time was the maid who was released from the Tang family, but it wasn't as eye-catching and good-looking as this.

Bai Lu glanced at her and said expressionlessly, "I'll buy a little maid and take me to see it!"

Sister-in-law Zhu Hua only felt a burst of pressure coming to her face, and she couldn't have any evil thoughts in her heart, so she could only honestly take her to choose a maid.

"Yes, this young lady, you want that kind of maid, we have a lot of this kind, a few days ago there happened to be a batch of maids sold from rich and noble families, do you want to see, the maids of big families are all trained. Sister-in-law Zhu asked honestly.

Looking at the people who were intimidated by his coercion, Bai Lu nodded slightly: "Take me to see it!" Although those maids may have made a big mistake and were sold, but the maids who are trained in this way are also easy to use, and they don't have to bother to train the rules, not to mention, at least they will look at people's eyes and serve people, and it would be better if they had some skills.

Although Bai Lu has never bought a maid, she still has some ideas in her heart about what kind of person she wants.

"That's it. Sister-in-law Zhu Hua took Bai Lu into the courtyard and opened one of the doors for Bai Lu to see.

"Stand up, there are customers who have come to see me today, so they all stand up for me!" Zhu Hua's sister-in-law shouted, and the people who were originally doing work in twos and threes hurriedly stood up and consciously lined up.

Bai Lu nodded secretly, there were ten people in total, all of them were teenage girls, and they looked delicate and smart. nodded at Zhu Hua's sister-in-law and said, "It's okay, let them all introduce themselves, which mansion they come from, they will talk about everything." ”

"Eh, yes, yes!"

The people below looked at Zhu Hua's respectful appearance, and some of their attitudes immediately became eager, and Bai Lu's face was silent, but he was secretly observing, brushing off those who changed their attitudes very quickly, such people are very unreliable and forgetful of profit.

Next, a few people introduced in turn, some of them explained the reason why the main family drove them out, and some of them didn't say it, for fear that they had really done something bad and had no face to say. Bai Lu doesn't care, such a person naturally can't look down on him. 17

"Let me say okay first, my family is not a big family, it is an ordinary person, I bought you back to take care of my grandmother, the monthly money is 200 wen a month, if you do well, I will give you a salary increase, and" Bai Lu looked around and said: "When you reach the age of double ten, I will let you marry freely and cancel your slavery." But you have to think about it, you don't come to my house to be happy. If you don't want to go, take a step back!"

As soon as Bai Lu's words fell, the other people were still hesitating, and two girls knelt down and kowtowed directly: "Ask the girl to buy it for me." β€œ

Bai Lu thought about it for a while, one of these two girls was sold by the master mother because she broke her aunt's beloved vase, and the other was good-looking and was favored by the young master of the main family, and was sold by the young grandmother who just married in. The character looks pretty good now, and they are all crafted. The beautiful one is called Xiangwu, and the beautiful one is called the green bottle, one can embroider, and the other is good at eating, which is very good.

Bai Lu nodded and said, "Then it's just the two of her, how much is the price, now we sign the contract and let's go!"

Although Zhu Hua's sister-in-law was a little afraid of Bai Lu, she was still very happy to make a business, so it was nothing to be afraid of the idea, so she invited Bai Lu to the living room for tea, but the formalities were completed in a tea time.

"White girl, this is the identity contract between the two of them, as you said, in Yu Zhi's name. Sister-in-law Zhu Hua respectfully gave Bai Lu the identity deed of the two.

"How much?"

"It was twenty taels of silver. β€œ

After the silver and goods were sold, Bai Lu put away the deed, and felt that it was very uncomfortable to take these two people to go shopping by himself, so he said: "You two, go buy some rice, noodles, meat, and wait for me at the grocery store in front later, this is silver, you can take it." Bai Lu gave them ten taels of silver, and went away.

Xiang Wu and Qing Bottle looked at each other, it seems that this master family is not very harsh, and he can give ten taels of silver to his two newly bought slaves and maids at will, and it seems that he also has a rich family background, and it seems that his choice is not wrong.

Xiang Wu was originally the son of the Su family, a wealthy family in the city, because she was smart since she was a child, and she was good-looking, she was placed next to the most favored eldest son, and she herself knew that she would be a maid in the future, so she took care of the eldest young master, and a heart also fell on the eldest young master. How do you know that Young Master Su fell in love with a poor and talented daughter, and instead of marrying to be a wife, that lady was still a vinegar jar, and she sold herself as soon as she came, and the young master didn't say a word to help herself, and the past friendship was like a flower in the moon mirror in the water, all fake. If it weren't for Bai Lu saying that he only had one grandmother to take care of, and let himself be free, Xiangwu would not have been willing, so his father would still be in charge of the Su family's shop, and he would have the money to buy him back. It's just that I don't want to step into the quagmire of deceit.

Qingbei is a simple maid, and she is not favored by her aunt, otherwise she would not be sent out of the blame. Now she looked at Xiangwu with wide eyes: "Sister Wu, shall we go?"

"Go, why don't you go, hurry up and finish your errands, it won't be good if you let Miss wait for us." β€œ

Bai Lu didn't care about the thoughts of the two maids, anyway, in his own hands, the two of them couldn't turn over the sky. She went to Main Street, ready to go to the blacksmith to see if there was anything she could use.

After entering the iron shop, Bai Lu knew that the imperial court strictly prohibited the private sale of weapons, so in the iron shop, only ordinary farm tools, Bai Lu shook his head in disappointment, he couldn't take a kitchen knife to fight with others! Bai Lu doesn't need to go out to experience and know that the spirit grass in this world, the spirit ore will definitely not be less than the Canghai realm, but why is there no ready-made magic weapon, she can't refine it herself even if she wants to have a water spirit root!

Foolishly bought a boning knife, and Bai Lu returned to the grocery store on West Street. The two little maids hadn't come back yet, Bai Lu bolted the donkey cart to the door of the store, and went into the grocery store to see if she had anything to buy, after all, after today, she might not come out to buy it.

"Yo, little lady, you're here again, but I miss your brother and me. Wu Yong on the counter couldn't help but smile again when he saw this beautiful little girl, he had long forgotten Bai Lu's murderous appearance when he scared him last time.

Bai Lu glared at him fiercely, didn't speak, and walked directly to the shelf, she didn't know what she was going to buy, just look at it and know what she lacked.

While watching, he swept with his divine sense, not to mention that Bai Lu really found two good things now. The same is the seed of a plant that I don't know, and there is a faint aura. There is also a big bowl that I don't know what material it is, although there is no aura, but Bai Lu just thinks that this big bowl is not simple, so he took it out, how do you know that there is pure aura into Bai Lu's body under it, this is a treasure! Bai Lu's heart is full of joy, what kind of luck has he taken, and found something that seems to be a magic weapon in this world where magic weapons are scarce.

In fact, Bai Lu himself didn't know, how could there be no magic weapons and other things in this world, but these things were all on Penglai Immortal Island in the East China Sea, and rarely flowed into the mortal world. What's more, like the spirits she had seen, they rarely used magic weapons and the like, and they used to use their body parts as weapons to attack.

Looking at Bai Lu happily bringing such a worthless object, Wu Yong's eyes were a little strange when he looked at Bai Lu, this woman can't have a problem with her brain!

"Shopkeeper, how much is this, I want it. β€œ

"One hundred taels of silver!" Wu Yong casually quoted the price.

Bai Lu, who was immersed in joy, didn't take the hundred taels of silver to heart, and happily gave a silver ticket and said, "How did you get this thing?"

Wu Yong, who was stunned by Bai Lu's generosity, began to wonder if there was something wrong with this girl's brain, or if there was something wrong with her own eyes, could these two inconspicuous things really be treasures?

"Oh, I don't know, you know that my shop is from poor people, sometimes they don't have any cash to buy things, so they will exchange some things, I don't know who gave it to me!"

"Eh, little girl, isn't this just a bowl, very valuable, an antique, and a seed, very precious?"

Looking at Wu Yong's somewhat gossipy face, Bai Lu said: "Don't think I don't know that you cheated me, only I will do this one hundred taels to buy this thing. In my eyes, it's a treasure, and in the eyes of others, it's not as valuable as a meat bun, you know!"

"Hehe! hehe!" Wu Yong laughed a few times, and he didn't inquire, he earned so much silver today, which is enough for his family's expenses for three years, so don't ask, see that the little girl is not the master who lacks silver, even if it is to help the poor.

Wu Yong, who originally wanted to return the silver to Bai Lu, instantly convinced himself and took one hundred taels without any loss.
