Rebirth: Perfect Rural Life - Chapter 234
In the past, it was just a sleep. The day and night suddenly became very long. Miss Li curled up on the ground, hoping that the night would pass quickly.
A man suddenly appeared in front of her. Miss Li looked up and saw the woman in the daytime. She turned her head to the other side and didn’t look at her.
“Well, my name is Fang ruxiu, the daughter of a senior official. What’s your name?” Fang ruxiu stretched out her hand and asked jokingly.
Miss Li was angry when she heard her ridicule, but she looked up and saw her sincere face. She put her hand on her hand, stood up and said her name: “my name is Li Yulian!”
“Oh, Li Yulian, isn’t it? Good name.” Fang ruxiu smiled and took her to her garden, “Although you robbed my things yesterday, which made me very angry, I thought about it tonight. I think it’s too cheap to let you go. I think you should give back ten times what you robbed me, so I don’t want you to freeze to death here.”
Fang ruxiu explained why she came here. Li Yulian was angry and said, “you’ve been watching me all the time?”
“No, I don’t have such a special hobby. I’m busy all day. Where can I have time to monitor you?” Fang ruxiu shook her head and said.
“Then how did you know I was here?” Li Yulian asked again.
“You think all the guards here are idiots.” Fang ruxiu smiled. “They found you, so they informed me.”
“Is this house yours?” Li Yulian asked.
“No, I can’t afford to buy such a good house. My father is just a farmer who depends on heaven to eat in the field, but he can’t afford such a big yard.”
Fang ruxiu’s words were harsh in Li Yulian’s ears. She thought her words must be alluding to what she said before, “her father is a senior official”, but she didn’t refute. Who told her that she is cold and cold now. She can grab food when she is hungry. It’s easy to freeze and shut up.
Fang ruxiu takes Li Yulian to the yard where Zhong Li and others lived before. Zhong Li and others have left. At the moment, it is just empty.
“You can sleep here today. This is my friend’s yard. He has been out for a while and won’t come back.” Fang ruxiu found her an empty room on the first floor, took down a quilt from upstairs, and then said, “rest early. If you have anything to say tomorrow, you’ll just come to lanxiangyuan to find me.”
“Oh, good.” Li Yulian nodded and agreed.
Finally, I slept on the soft quilt. Although it was not as good as when I was at home, I could barely sleep. At least it was much better than when I slept in the pavilion before.
After tossing about in the middle of the night, Li Yulian soon fell asleep when she came to a warm room.
Early the next morning, Daya got up. She went to make porridge for Fang ruxiu and others, and then ran to the city to call yapo.
Fang ruxiu is practicing martial arts in the yard. She feels a little strange to see Daya sneaking out alone, but she doesn’t care so much about her. She doesn’t limit her freedom.
After breakfast, Fang ruxiu was reading in the house. Daya led the toothed woman to the door. She called the cook and two little girls and led the toothed woman to see people.
“That’s them.” Daya said, “these people bully our young lady and bully the LORD with slaves, so we don’t want them. Calculate the price, and then bring the girl to pick for our young lady.”
When the three men heard Daya call them, they were still a little foolhardy. When Daya brought the toothed woman to them and said the above words, they were really afraid.
“Daya girl, we know we are wrong. Please forgive us this time.” the cook immediately knelt down and begged.
If they betray the reputation of deceiving the Lord and are sold again, they can’t find such a relaxed thing. Later, someone bought them. At most, they do some rough work. They don’t get the attention of the master’s family. Maybe they will be bullied by other servant girls. At least their reputation is bad.
In the slave market, there is also a way. For example, these little girls who have never been with other owners are the most valuable and valued people. The cook is not as good as the little girl. After all, many people like to cultivate their own cook from an early age.
Second hand slaves, even if someone wants to buy them, will also ask them who the last buyer was and what they committed to be expelled from the house. If someone asks in the future, how should they answer.
When Daya heard the three begged for mercy, she didn’t even answer, but she continued to say to the toothed woman, “give me an estimate, bring a girl to show us in the afternoon, and buy some more.”
“Yes.” the granny nodded hurriedly and patrolled in front of the three people.
The toothed woman was fifty or sixty years old and had fierce eyes. The three people didn’t dare to look up at all. They just knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.
Daya began to explain, “we have given you a chance, and more than once“
“When the young lady came back, you were not there. When you came back, you were not respectful and didn’t do any work. You didn’t listen to the young lady’s orders and didn’t let you get up, but you disappeared yourself. In the evening, we sat in the study and gave you a chance to apologize, but you didn’t come at all. In that case, what else do you have to do?”
After all, no servant girl dared not listen to the master. Moreover, in the days when Fang ruxiu was not here before, they had already taken a long holiday.
“Ask sister Daya to forgive us, we really don’t know.” the cook didn’t distinguish, but the two little girls knelt down again and begged for mercy.
Daya looked at them and felt some pity. She wanted to sell them all night last night, but her heart softened when she saw them crying.
“Sell it. It’s better for you to find a new owner again. I don’t want to block your way to wealth.” Fang ruxiu sat on the desk and raised her head leisurely with a roll of books in her hand.
Hearing Fang ruxiu’s words, no one said anything more. Daya looked at yapo and yapo said ten Liang silver to pack them.
When I bought it, I spent twenty Liang. Now I just halved the silver money, but Daya nodded. Then she asked the tooth woman to bring some people to pick for her young lady in the afternoon.
After this, Daya went to Fang ruxiu’s side, reported with Fang ruxiu for a while, and said, “Miss, is Daya making his own decision?”
“No.” Fang ruxiu shook her head with a smile and said, “you did it right. Anyway, these people don’t have a sense of belonging to us. It’s good to go, but they lost some money. I don’t want someone to make me unhappy all day.”
Daya nodded and said, “Miss, don’t you blame me for making my own decisions?”
“I told you, you will be the big servant girl around me in the future, and you should be responsible for these things.” Fang ruxiu said with a smile: “although our family is not very good now, it will get better and better in the future. At that time, a large number of servant girls under you will let you command. When you see you, you will respectfully call you da ya girl.”
After hearing Fang ruxiu’s words, Daya looked forward to that day and smiled. Finally, she said, “in fact, it’s very good now. I don’t think I need to hire a servant girl. I’ll just do some work with Miss Tang. I remember when you had to work at home, miss.”
“Yes, it shows that our days are getting better and better. In the blink of an eye, you have been in our house for nearly a year.” Fang ruxiu said: “in the past year, you have grown a lot and grown a lot.”
“Thank you for your kindness,” Daya said gratefully.
“OK, that’s also your cleverness.” Fang ruxiu smiled at her and said, “go, go to work, don’t pestle me.”
Daya promised and ran out to work.
She likes to work here and is free. As long as she does things well, Fang ruxiu hardly cares about her. Everything is easy every day, but it’s just sweeping. If she invites some more servant girls, she’s really worried that she has nothing to do.
“Xia song!” seeing the figure of Daya gone away, Fang ruxiu thought of another thing.
“Hey, miss.” Xia song hurriedly ran in: “what can I do for you?”
He is Fang Yizhi’s schoolboy. Fang Yizhi is usually in class. He stays at home, trims flowers and plants in the yard, or plays around idly. Now he specializes in running errands for Fang ruxiu.
“Go to the workshop and call Peng Hanmo for me.” Fang ruxiu said, “well, then go to the street and buy some food for our lunch.”
“Raw or cooked?” Xia song asked, licking his face.
“Raw!” Fang ruxiu said, “you and Daya are in charge of the lunch. Make it delicious.”
“Oh.” Xia song went out dejected.
Fang ruxiu felt a little funny when she saw her appearance. After a while, she heard Daya cry at the door, “what are you doing here? How did you get in? You two small thieves took the initiative to come to the door and be beaten, didn’t they?”
Fang ruxiu listened carefully and couldn’t help laughing. She guessed that the Sister Li Yulian must have come. Not long later, Li Yulian came with her brother. Daya stood behind with a look of indignation.
“Miss, she said you let her come.” Daya said to each other, such as embroidery, “did they lie?”
“Yes, I asked them to come.” Fang ruxiu said with a smile, “go and make a cup of tea for these two.”
“OK.” Daya just had some angry expression. When she heard Fang ruxiu say so, she drooped down and obediently went to make tea. Anyway, in her eyes, what the young lady said can’t be wrong.
Fang ruxiu stood up from the desk, came to the guest room, went to the round table, asked the two to sit down, and then spread out her hands to invite them to tea.
“What’s your name, little friend?” Fang ruxiu looked at Li Pingchuan.
Li Pingchuan glanced at Li Yulian and said, “my name is Li Pingchuan, but I’m not a child.”
“Oh, it’s not a child, it must be a big friend.” Fang ruxiu stretched out his hand to touch his head. The 11-year-old boy was a little stiff at the moment Fang ruxiu stretched out his hand.
The girl who looked ferocious yesterday has become so pleasant today. It’s really hard to see through.
