Chapter 026 Home

When I opened my eyes, the first thing I saw was a ball of white. Xia Hanqiu was stunned before she remembered that there was an uninvited guest last night.

Well, it's her choo-choo now.

Seeing that it was sleeping soundly, Xia Hanqiu stretched out her hand from the quilt and pulled its ears.

Seeing it circling in place on the pillow, slowly changing from head to her to buttocks to her...

Xia Hanqiu covered her mouth and smiled secretly.

"Miss is in a good mood today." When your mother brought hot water in, she couldn't help laughing when she saw this scene.

Sit up, and by the way, he picked up the choo-choo and raised it to your mother, "I want to raise it."

Ru Niang heard what A Jiu said early in the morning, but she was not surprised. She just smiled and said, "Miss, if you want to raise it, just be careful not to be bitten."

"It won't bite me." Hearing that Ru Niang didn't say that she couldn't raise her, Xia Hanqiu was even happier.

In the previous 13 years, she was used to being managed and arranged by others. Now she is far away from the Zhang family, but your mother is different from her. When she was in the Zhang family, she listened to your mother very much and developed the habit, and she could not change it for a while.

After breakfast, Xia Hanqiu began to distribute their own busy work. "Tasong, the three of you left one person to look after the house. The two of you went out to touch the situation of Huiting City. I want to sell some pen, ink, paper and inkstone in the shop in front of me. You can also find out where these things can Come back and make some shelves."

Tasong wrote down one by one, and the young lady retreated without any other instructions, leaving Taren to take care of the house. He and Talang acted separately.

"Your mother, you go and find the toothmaid. We have to buy some people to use it."

"Yes, the old slave also thinks that it's okay to buy some talents. If there is someone around you, Ajiu can also go out with me to run errands."

Knowing that your mother was trying to bring A Jiu out, Xia Hanqiu also felt that A Jiu could be of great use, so she said, "When you buy someone, I will send A Jiu to you."

Today, the sun was shining. He walked around the house with Jiujiu in his arms. He was familiar with the place where he would stay for a long time in the future. Xia Hanqiu went back to his yard and asked Ajiu to move out. He took the pen, ink, paper and inkstones one by one, and prepared to write a letter

She doesn't want to get the benefits of the Xia family, but she won't cut off contact with the foreign ancestor's family because of this taboo.

She doesn't have many relatives, and she can't even lose this.

It's just that her specific location still has to wait for her to calm down before telling them. This is her insistence.

No one can support her backbone, and she has to support herself.

Deleted and wrote a few pieces of paper, read it from beginning to end, and then copied a copy. Xia Hanqiu put down the pen.

"Your mother hasn't come back?"

A Jiu knelt down and lowered his head to wash the pen. Hearing the words, he looked up and replied, "Yes, it's still early, your mother..."

At this time, there was a noise outside, and the sound of the tower urn guarding outside came, "Your mother, this man is..."

Ru Niang was not unhappy to be stopped at all. Instead, she smiled because of his due diligence. "This is a very humble middle-mouthed person in Huiting City. Is the young lady in the room?"

"Yes." Taren looked at the woman several times and stood aside.

Ru Niang turned sideways to the person behind her, "Sister-in-law Wu, please inside."

Mrs. Wu has been in this industry for many years, and she has seen a lot of noble women. Naturally, she will not be scared by such a scene, but she has a higher evaluation of this outsider in her heart.

As soon as she entered the yard, before Mrs. Wu could look around, she first saw a young girl sitting on the collapse with a white pet in her arms, and looked at her faintly.

Mrs. Wu, who had not paid attention to this business, suddenly tightened her heart.

She can't beat geese all day long, but today she was pecked by geese. Even if she is from the outdoors, she is afraid that people will not be underestimated.

Thinking of this, the locals' contempt for outsiders was all put away.

"Miss, this is my sister-in-law Wu, sister-in-law Wu, this is my young lady."

"The little one has met the young lady."

"Free gift." Seeing that she restrained the ceremony, Xia Hanqiu went straight to the point, "I want to buy some people to serve in your dental shop. I don't know if you have enough people on hand to choose for me, and if there are any other people to buy."

"Miss, don't worry, our dental shop is the largest in Huiting City. Many nobles choose people from our dental shop. There are enough people in charge. There is absolutely no problem in the way. I don't know how many you want to buy?"

"What is the price?"

"I'm familiar with it. I can buy a five taels of silver and one for the younger four taels of silver. This is the internal price of a maid in Huiting City. A woman who is skilled and not more than 35 taels of silver is ten taels of silver. The usual five taels, the price of the servant is also different. Miss, what I told you is the intra-house price. If you don't believe it, just go to several other companies to see if it's the case.

Xia Hanqiu looked at Ru Niang, and Ru Niang nodded slightly. In fact, the price of Huiting City is a little cheaper than that of Wuyang City.

"Well, it's still early. You go back and bring people here. I need ten maids. I want to be young, mother-in-law... Mother-in-law, how many do you think are enough?"

Ru Niang thought for a moment, "There are also ten, and the specific decision will be decided after seeing the person."

"That's ten. As for the young men, don't want the older ones. Four of the age of the general corner are enough, and it's better to be all outsiders."

Looking young, he is actually a cool person. Seeing that the business can be done, Mrs. Wu's eyes are narrowed into a slit. "Miss's small requirements must be met as much as possible, so she will go back to get people."

The three masters and servants have settled accounts in their hearts one after another, roughly estimating that it will cost about one hundred and forty taels.

"Miss, we don't have much money left..."

"These people have to buy. Don't worry, mother, you divide the money in your hand into two parts, one for public expenditure, and the other for the things needed for the shop."

Ru Niang calculated, "The old slave still has about 2,300 taels in my hand, half of which is 1,350 taels. Miss, if it is a pen and ink shop, it should not be able to use this much."

"Then let's use it for the pavement last week."

"Yes."

The quiet choo-choo suddenly looked up and licked Xia Hanqiu's face. Xia Hanqiu stroked its back, which was very suitable for one person and one pet.

Mrs. Wu came very quickly.

This time, Xia Hanqiu received her in the big room in the front yard.

"Miss, I've brought all the people. You choose."

In advance, there are two rows of little girls, who are small, and the biggest one looks only seven or eight years old.

Mrs. Wu is a quintuous person. Looking at her eyes, she hesitated and said, "Miss, don't worry, the oldest person in this group is only a few days away from the age of ten, but the family is poor, there is nothing to eat and drink, and they can't be too big. However, you don't They will definitely change a lot."

Xia Hanqiu saw what the ragged clothes looked like for the first time.

Fortunately, the weather is warm. I really don't know how they survived the winter.

Looking back from the left, each of them was low-browed, but the clenched fists on their side leaked their minds.

Mrs. Wu is also very nervous. This group of people have been in her hands for a while and have not been able to sell it.

It's not that she fooled Xia Hanqiu with bad people, but that she doesn't know what's going on during this period. No matter who buys the older ones, these people can only be raised.

Ten is not much, but it's better than keeping them all in your hands.

Xia Hanqiu thought that her eyes were not as sophisticated as your mother. After seeing that there was nothing special, she withdrew her eyes and said, "Your mother, go and pick people."

"Yes."

Ru Niang took a few steps forward, "Stretch out your hands."

At a glance at their nails, your mother picked out 18 people.

"Put out your tongue."

There are four people left this time, and there are still 14 people left.

"Look up."

In the end, Ru Niang picked out the three people from the corners of her eyes. Such a person may not be charming, but it is always good not to let such a person be around the young lady.

The remaining 11 people didn't dare to come out of the nervous atmosphere, for fear that they would be retreated again.

They have been used to looking at the eyes since childhood. They can see other people's dislikes, and they also want to find a good master's house. The one in front of them looks good. It's better to wait for the little master than the man with unclean hands and feet.

Your mother stood in front of a man. Before the words came out, the man knelt down with a plop, and his tears came first, "Mom, mom, you leave the little one. The little one will work hard to repay you. You leave the little one..."

It's not that your mother is not soft-hearted, but if you count the little silver of the young lady, that little wavering is nothing.

You have to pick people later. If you waver this time, how can the people behind you do something?

"Sister-in-law Wu, there are only ten maids."

Ten people were overjoyed and quickly knelt down and kowtowed to the master.

Xia Hanqiu received their courtesy and made them retreat to the side.

"The woman brought it in, and the little man Ajiu, you took it to Taren to pick, Wu's mother, is this feasible?"

"It's feasible." Mrs. Wu didn't expect that the young lady would trust a slave. She was stunned and immediately answered.

Xia Hanqiu didn't pay much attention when picking a woman, but paid attention to the little girl who stood aside and silently wiped her tears.

When the opportunity was about to slip away from her eyes, she opened her mouth to keep it, but the result was not as she wanted, so she also accepted her fate. She was quite good at such a person. Even if her fate was bad in the future, she had worked hard for herself, right?

When a person struggles in the mud, what he hopes for most is that someone can pull it, even if he falls into another nightmare.

She once had such hopes.

But in the end, she had to rely on herself.

Now that she has the ability to give others a hand, she can't be indifferent, at least not yet.

After everyone settled down, Xia Hanqiu bought her extra.

In response to her unbelievable eyes, Xia Hanqiu stroked her and smiled, "From now on, come and wait on me."

"Yes, yes, the little one must serve the young lady wholeheartedly, the little one, the little Miss Xie is kind."

PS: The name of Tuanzi has been changed to choo-choo. Some people say that the name Tuanzi is too common...
