The Beauty in the Peasant Family - C291

Xu San nodded his head silently, and when Qin Wuya saw this, she said: “This is the crux of the matter, maybe you think it does not matter, but in your mother’s eyes, this is a threshold that she will never cross. This threshold will not change just because my sister is filial enough to your mother, and everything will change.

Perhaps what I said wasn’t nice, but in fact, as long as your mother remembers my sister’s origin, then all of my sister’s good points would become bad, and all of her bad points would be infinitely expanded.

You said you wanted to marry my sister because you genuinely like her and want to be good to her, but what can you do to her? Let’s not talk about it for now, all I hear is that you want my sister to live with your mother’s displeasure. Is that really being good to her?

A woman might be lucky to be married to a suitable man for life because of her luck, but it was also possible that she might have to suffer for the rest of her life because of marrying an inappropriate family. My sister has already learned her lesson. I don’t want her to experience it a second time. ”

After Qin Wuya said that, she handed over the signed account book in her hand to Xu San. Without waiting for Xu San to explain anymore, she continued, “Today’s words are just my personal concerns, you don’t have to take them to heart.

I will not participate in your matters. Everything will depend on my sister’s own intentions. If she is willing, then anything is fine. ”

Xu San was not happy with Qin Wuya’s last words, he was opposed to Qin Wuya holding onto the account book tightly, then lowered his head at the end: “Perhaps this is also Qiu Rong’s concern.”

Seeing Xu San leave, Qin Wuya sighed.

In this era, a man marrying a woman might just be because he felt that there was an extra woman in his family, a pair of chopsticks.

However, a woman marrying a man meant that she had to face a brand-new family at the same time. A pair of parents that weren’t her parents, what their future would be like, how they would live their lives, and whether or not they would be liked and accepted by others was unknown.

This time, Qin Wuya obviously could not let go of this issue either, so she got He Feng to help him write a copy of the Recruitment Inspiration, and openly recruited five Mr. Clerk s and a female servant who knew simple writing skills and numerals.

In fact, Qin Wuya wanted to find a female secretary to help him with her work, but no one in the Grand Dynasty knew what these two positions were for, so it would be better to just say that they were female servants.

Although Qin Wuya felt that the identity of a servant girl was a little insulting, but a servant girl had their own benefits. A servant girl could sign a life contract, and the effect of a secret contract in Grand Dynasty was not as good as a life contract.

After all, personal aid and the work of the Secretary-General were not big, and were not small, but they were closely related to the degree of transparency in the accounts of the entire Sunset Cloud Villa.

During these two years, the Sunset Cloud Villa had long ago spread the news of the good welfare and treatment to the surrounding villages through the mouths of the more than five hundred workers in the Sunset Cloud Villa. Because of this, within two days of He Feng’s recruitment notice being posted, more than ten Mr. Clerk came out one after another to apply.

Although Liu Da was currently the head of personnel in Sunset Clouds Mountain, he himself didn’t know much. Normally, he would only be able to manage a few hundred of his subordinates and hire a few servants, but if he was to hire an accountant, Liu Da didn’t have any confidence at all.

Liu Da could not do it, and Xu San was too busy, so Qin Wuya could only pull He Feng along to do it for free.

In any case, He Feng was the Chao Chung Hall’s financial director, and had his own specialties in the field of arithmetic. The most important thing was that He Feng was a shrewd old fox, so it was obviously more effective for him to help to recruit people than Qin Wuya alone.

Sure enough, Qin Wuya did not do much in the recruitment process, most of the questions were related to He Feng’s consideration of the dozens of Mr. Clerk Cultivators’ knowledge, experience and so on, but she did not do it for some reason.

As for Qin Wuya, after she finalized the first round of candidates, she made clear each and every one of them had any other special requests besides the fixed benefits offered by the Sunset Clouds Mountain.

From among them, he selected five more composite Sunset Cloud Villa s and their benefits, and finally confirmed with a stamp.

In less than three days, the slots for the five Mr. Clerk s were finally decided, and each of them signed a deed for a period of ten years on the spot.

Mr. Clerk was as easy to find as Qin Wuya had expected, but to find a servant girl who knew how to read papers and cut ink, it was truly a difficult task.

He Feng’s recruitment notice had nearly covered all over the streets and alleys of Clear Water Town for a good seven or eight days and there was not a single girl that came to apply.

Qin Wuya had no choice but to change her way of thinking and ask the human tooth s in the various big dental man markets to help him search. When Qin Wuya consecutively entrusted five or six human tooth s with his help without any news, approximately half a month later, a human tooth brought over a woman who was around the age of twenty-four or twenty-five.

Logically speaking, the best age for a servant girl would be around 8 to 14 years old. Since she was too young to support, if she was too old and didn’t have any special uses, she would be released after a few years.

And this woman that human tooth had brought was already in his early twenties, disguised as a woman clearly did not look like he could be a servant. Qin Wuya raised her eyebrows and asked the human tooth: This woman is the servant girl that you found for me?

The human tooth was clearly a little embarrassed, so she smiled apologetically: “Madam, if you want to find a servant girl, it’s easy, but it’s really too difficult to find someone with the ability to read and write Mo.”

With that, the human tooth quickly explained, “I have nowhere to go. Don’t look at her age, but other than that, everything else meets Madam’s requirements.”

Hearing human tooth say that, Qin Wuya became a little interested and asked the woman: “Are you literate?”

“Those who know better.” The woman’s face was haggard and her eyes were slightly lowered. Although her voice was light, it was also proper.

Seeing that, Qin Wuya was satisfied: “Can you write?”

“Yes.” The woman nodded.

Qin Wuya was pleasantly surprised, and then asked: “Do you know a few techniques?”

Seeing that the lady still nodded, Qin Wuya’s face showed a hint of happiness, and began to carefully question the lady’s origin: “What is your name? What is your background, and why are you being sold? ”

“This servant’s family name is Ye. In the past, all the people that knew this servant called her Ye Erniang.” Ye Erniang said respectfully.

Qin Wuya looked at Ye Erniang’s age, dressing, and asked: “Ye Erniang, have you promised anyone before?”

“Eight years ago, this servant was betrothed by my relatives to a large family and became their concubine.” Ye Erniang replied.

“And for what reason?” Seeing that Ye Erniang had used the word ‘betrothed’, Qin Wuya could not help but be confused.

Although the status of a concubine in the Grand Dynasty cannot be compared with that of her official wife, there was still a difference in status between a concubine and her concubine. For example, the concubines of a good family were mostly good concubines. Although their status was not as good as a first wife’s, they were still considered equal in the law of the Great Li Dynasty. He couldn’t be so easily beaten and sold cheaply. Even if he were to lose his life, he would still have to face a lawsuit.

However, a lowly concubine was different from a good concubine. A lowly concubine was mostly obtained from the human tooth. He went to his master’s bed for various reasons and got the status of a concubine.

Although a lowly concubine was still a concubine, she was actually pretty much the same as a servant. If the host wasn’t satisfied, then they could just kill and sell it.

From another point of view, slaves were not recognized as’ people ‘by the law, thus their status were considered low level peasants. If not for the fact that half of their lives were gone, they would not have sold their children to the human tooth.

This was because once it was recorded in the official records, it was from a good citizen to a lowly citizen.

If he did not meet a kind owner who would return his indenture contract and leave for Shangguan Family at the same time, then his status as a servant would follow for a lifetime. Even the children left behind by a slave would also be slaves. Women could not freely marry, and men similarly could not take the test to obtain a title.

Before Fu Xi married Liu Da, he paid a silver fee to help Fu Xi change his household register from a slave to a good one.

Since this Ye Erniang knew how to read and write, she was obviously born into a rich family of poets, even though his family had fallen and his family’s uncle had betrothed him to a rich family, she should still belong to the category of a good family concubine. How did it end up in the human tooth’s hands?

Selling people was an ordinary matter in the Grand Dynasty, and it was not strange.

But there were strict rules and regulations. If not for the sale of their parents or the conviction of the Shangguan Family, ordinary people would not be able to sell their good citizens as slaves. Because of a mishap, being accused of selling good people to be a lowly crime would cause trouble even in Shangguan Family.

Therefore, even though Qin Wuya was already very satisfied with Ye Erniang, she had to clear up some things. After all, recruiting secretaries was to solve her problem, not to cause him more trouble.

Ye Erniang looked at Qin Wuya with some hesitation, but in the end, she clenched her teeth and said with some difficulty: “This humble servant’s family has caused trouble, and offended Shangguan Family.”

“Shangguan Family?” Qin Wuya was startled, she did not expect the Ye Erniang to give such a reason, and immediately asked: “You’re saying that your husband has stirred up some kind of crime, and all the women in the family have been sent to be sinners?”

“Yes.” Ye Erniang’s face was filled with tears, but she still forced herself to nod her head.

“Could you possibly tell me that your husband’s family fell into such a predicament because of some sort of crime?”

Qin Wuya frowned, she would ask the Ye Erniang this question, not because she, Glory of the Goddess, wanted to avenge her husband’s family, but just to determine if the crime committed by the husband’s family in the Ye Erniang was a heavy one, or if it would harm her, the person who bought the slaves.
