report!The empress is on the way to farm, the lucky star shines brightly

Chapter 70
The shopkeeper of the tooth shop is a man who knows what to do, but he sincerely provokes someone for Kapok.

Those eight children were about the same age as Kapok, but standing next to Kapok looked much more immature. When they heard what the shopkeeper said, they became a little anxious, and they all wanted to say something nice to Kapok to buy them, but they couldn't help it. Dare to speak out, and don't know how to say good things. They are children who grew up in the countryside, and they don't have so many twists and turns.

Kapok naturally took their reactions into her eyes, she shook her head and said to the shopkeeper: "No need, our family is not a big family, and there are not so many rules in the family, so children from poor families may be more suitable for our family." .”

Kapok turned to the eight children again: "If you sell yourself to me today, you have to follow my family's rules. I don't care about your current ability to do things, but if you go to my house, you have to improve your ability as soon as possible. Work hard and be loyal to the master, otherwise, I'm sure you will come back here in a short time. At that time, it will not be so easy to choose a good master."

Kapok likes to put things first, and she only asks of her servants to be diligent and loyal.

The children were still a little elated, but when they thought that they met a strict master, the joy faded a little, and their eyes were filled with fear and uneasiness.

All the people selected by kapok have pure and clean eyes, and it is the first time to sell it to a dental store. It will be easier for such children to polish.After giving them a stern impression, Kapok said again: "Of course, as long as you perform well, if you want to redeem the deed of prostitution and go home ten years from now, I can consider it."

After this long passage, the eyes of those children shone with excitement. This was a great blessing, and all eight children knelt down and kowtowed to thank Kapok for his great kindness.

After all, slaves are the lowest existence in this era. Once you sell yourself as a slave, it is equivalent to selling your life to the master. No matter how the master sends them, it is normal.

And ten years later, they are only in their twenties, when they are young and strong, and generally there is no master who is willing to let people go home at this age, they will only be able to let people go back when they are old. If you can return home as a commoner in your twenties, it is really a chance to change your destiny.

However, Kapok didn't think that way. In her eyes, although she and them are equal and mutually beneficial, the relationship between the boss and the employees, she is indeed willing to let them go free after ten years, but she is also confident that she will grow up after ten years To the extent that these people are willing to continue working for her.

It was the first time for the shopkeeper to see the master's family buying slaves like this, and he admired Kapok from the bottom of his heart. He looked at the eight children and hurriedly said, "Thank you, master."

The eight children were also intelligent, and they knelt down to thank each other: "Thank you master, the savior gave you the name."

"Well, I won't choose any nice names, you guys should rank according to the 24 solar terms." Mu Mian looked at the four girls and said, "Girls still have to get nice names, then Jingzhe, Gu Yu, Bailu, Xiaoxue, as for boys, they are called Lichun, Lixia, Liqiu, Lidong, what do you think?"

How can the children be dissatisfied, their real names are Goudan Erya and the like, but they are far less nice than these names.

So, Kapok signed a contract of selling herself with the eight children, agreeing that if they want to redeem themselves after ten years, Kapok will agree to let them go home.

The Kapok's family also bought a carriage now, which is quite convenient. The eight children sat in the carriage and went home with Kapok.

Gu Yueniang was sitting in the yard making dolls, she was shocked when she saw Mu Mian getting out of the carriage with eight children, and hurried over: "Mian'er, these children"

Mu Mian smiled, and pulled Gu Yueniang into the house: "Didn't I tell you? You are weak and don't work any more, and rest at home. I bought those children to work at home, so that you and your father You don’t have to worry about these housework anymore, and you can just be the landlord’s wife with peace of mind.”

Although Gu Yueniang has been used to being poor in Feng's family these years, she feels sorry for Yinzi, but she has been a wife of the Hou Mansion for several years, so she immediately feels relieved.

But Feng Dashan, who came out after hearing the commotion, was a little at a loss: "Mian'er, why are you buying so many children? There are only a few people in my family."

Kapok smiled and said: "Not much, not much. Both you and your mother are not healthy enough to do work, so I leave everything to them. Oh, by the way, Lixia and Lidong will give it to the husband when he comes back. He is used to using people around him, so he must be very uncomfortable now. Xiaoxue and Bailu are only ten years old. Although they can't do heavy work, my original intention is to let them accompany Junbao and Junyi. The siblings are only five years old. No one will take care of them. As for the others, mother, I will leave this matter to you." Then he asked a few children to introduce themselves to Gu Yueniang and the others.

Gu Yueniang nodded and said: "It seems that you are all good people. Since you have come to my house, you should work hard from now on, and the family will not treat you badly. Tell me what kind of work you all do. "

After Gu Yueniang finished speaking, a girl with delicate features stepped forward to bless her and said: "Master, Mrs. Ma'am, my family used to open an embroidery village, but my parents died of illness, and all the money in the family was used up. The milk is sold to the dental shop, I can embroider, I can make clothes, shoes and socks, as long as it is a female worker, I can do it.”

Gu Yueniang nodded and glanced at Mu Mian, and she let go of her restrained temperament after being signaled by Mu Mian, and said: "In this case, I will entrust you with the embroidery work at home. What's your name?"

"If you go back to Madam, my maidservant's name is Jing Zhe."

Probably because Jingzhe got off to a good start, the rest of the children also spoke up enthusiastically, telling what they were good at, some said they were used to doing farm work, some said they were good at cooking, and some said I can do anything by myself.

Kapok was very satisfied with listening. When these children came to the house, they immediately felt that the house was lively.And all of them look good, among them, Mu Mian is particularly satisfied with the one named Jing Zhe, who is very calm and quick-witted at a young age, and will be of great use after training.

Two days later, Liu Xinniang brought good news to Kapok.

The person who came was Liu Xinniang's nanny, Nanny Zhong. Nanny Zhong was a very serious and rigid middle-aged woman. The two times I saw Mu Mian before, she stood firmly behind Liu Xinniang without saying a word.

But this time when Nanny Zhong came over, she smiled brightly and was very polite to Kapok, completely different from the previous two times.

Grandma Zhong began to boast when she saw Kapok: "Miss Kapok is really getting better and better as she grows up. Although the old servant is a slave, he has met many young ladies. Miss Kapok is no worse than those young ladies in appearance and talent. Woolen cloth."

Mu Mian is not someone who will take beautiful words seriously, she responded with a smile and asked, "Nurse, is there something urgent you are here this time?"

Grandma Zhong saw that Kapok was neither humble nor overbearing, and was polite, so she looked at her sincerely and said, "That's right, Mrs. Luzhou Governor will hold a flower banquet in a few days, and my wife invites you to join in."
