Nongmen shrew: Farming with cubs is spoiled by rough men

Chapter 316

Qin Zhiyi visited the county magistrate's mansion the next day.

High-quality ginseng, brocade silk and satin, a pair of jade ruyis, Qin Zhiyi picked out a few things that could be obtained, and brought them to visit Mrs. Xu with the maid.

No matter what Mrs. Xu thinks, she can't be negligent when she visits. The heavy gifts she brings show her sincerity even though she values ​​others.

It's just that during the whole chat, Qin Zhiyi discovered that Mrs. Xu was extremely intelligent.

She told her that Ms. Xu had not betrothed to others, but she did not say whether she would agree, but only said that she would ask her mother and husband-in-law.

But she was full of praise for Laiwang, and Qin Zhiyi didn't know what she was thinking for a while.

After returning, Qin Zhiyi realized that there were two more people in the house.

When Aunt Guo saw her coming back, she hurriedly explained to her: "Madam, this person is from Qin's Village, and he said he wanted to ask you for a job for the child."

Qin Zhiyi looked at the two people in front of her. They were a mother and daughter. The mother looked at her with a flattering face, while the daughter next to her hurriedly stood aside, combing two buns, looking down at herself Judging from her immature face, she should be around fifteen years old.

Seeing her looking at her, the woman hurriedly said to the girl beside her: "Xiuxiu, raise your head to show your wife, maybe your wife will be merciful and let you work with her."

The girl raised her face obediently upon hearing this.

When Qin Zhiyi saw this face, he couldn't help feeling that the beauty of the mountains and rivers was beautiful.

Although the little girl in front of her looked a little immature, her skin was fair, her big eyes were especially watery, and she looked gentle and peaceful.

But he just exchanged a glance with her, then hurriedly lowered his head.

The woman hurriedly explained: "Madam, what do you think? Can you keep her? Even if it's serving tea and pouring water, sweeping and washing clothes, she can do it."

Qin Zhiyi looked at the little girl in front of her carefully, and had to admit that her appearance was pretty good, but when she looked at the other's hands, she frowned slightly.

These hands are white and delicate, without even a scratch on them, obviously not working hands.

She is also from the countryside, and she has also noticed in Qinjiazhuang that in this era, no matter men, women, old or young, they will help the family with some work, and their hands are more or less callous, and even if they are not, the palms will be rough.

The little girl in front of me is completely different. If the little girl in front of me dresses up carefully, it is not an exaggeration to say that she is a rich lady, after all, she is so well protected.

So she said in a deep voice: "I'm afraid she can't do these jobs."

When the woman heard this, she immediately became anxious: "You can do it, you can do it, don't think she is young, she is hardworking, Madam begs you to take her in."

Speaking of this, the woman knelt down directly towards her, even took out the veil from her bosom, wiped her tears, and dragged the little girl beside her to kneel down together.

Aunt Guo also saw the abnormality on her face, and then looked at the little girl again.

Soon, she also discovered something was wrong, so she followed up and scolded: "I said, did you not hear me? My wife said that your girl can't do the work of our family."

The woman still didn't give up, and looked up at her: "Why can't it be done? Madam, at least give us a word to make us give up."

Qin Zhiyi heard the words and directly took the little girl's hand.

The little girl was stunned for a moment, but Qin Zhiyi lowered her eyes, stared at her hand and said: "This little hand, it is said that the ten fingers do not touch the spring water, I am afraid no one will believe it."

When the woman heard this, panic appeared in her eyes, and even the little girl hurriedly withdrew her hand.

"You said that you are reluctant to let the girl who works at home send me here for no reason? If you really do something, you have already made up your mind. Why wait until now."

Seeing that the matter came to light, the woman kowtowed to her again: "Ma'am, it was because of this. To tell you the truth, since I was born, this girl hurt like an eyeball, and I was reluctant to let her work, but now that I am old I didn't even find a husband's family, and I disliked her for not being able to work, so I sent it to you, hoping that my wife can teach her."

She sneered and asked, "Tiaotiao Tiaotiao, what do you think I am here? Whether you want to send me to work here, or have other plans, you know best."

The woman was speechless again: "Ma'am... It's really not what you think, we can't even open the pot, please forgive me."

Seeing this situation, Aunt Guo also whispered at this time: "Madam, why don't you take her in, at worst I'll send her to the farm outside, and let her feed chickens, ducks and so on."

At the end, her voice became even lower: "If not, what should this woman do if she returns to Qin's Village and ruins your reputation everywhere?"

It's not that she hasn't thought about it. For more than a year, she has been taking care of the Qin family village, leading them to improve food varieties and teaching them to grow potatoes.

They have always done their duties honestly, and the food he used in the restaurant these years has basically been collected from the Qin family village.

She didn't speak, and after thinking for a moment, she asked again: "You said you are from Qinjiazhuang, why have I never seen you?"

"Forgive me, ma'am."

The woman continued to kowtow: "We are indeed not from Qinjiazhuang, but if we don't call it that, I'm afraid my wife won't even open the door, and we are desperate to do so."

"Let's expand and talk."

She didn't bother to talk nonsense to them.

The woman also understood what she meant, kowtowed to her again and said: "Actually, our mother and I came from the south, and our ancestors also had some family background, and they lived a life without worrying about food and clothing, but her father is not good. If you become addicted to gambling, let alone sell your property, in the end you even have to... sell this girl too."

The woman broke down in tears at the end: "I took this girl and fled, but the sky was big and the earth was big, and I didn't know where to go. Then I remembered that my natal family was from Qinjiazhuang, so I relied on my memory to escape." I fumbled all the way here, and only after asking people did I realize that there is only a good person like you in our Qin Family Village."

Perhaps it was because the little girl in front of her had a similar experience to her, which resonated with her.

Or maybe it was because the woman in front of her was telling the truth, all in all, her face softened a lot.

"So that's the case, since this is the case... Aunt Guo, you can arrange for the two of them to help outside the village."

Aunt Guo responded, and the mother and daughter thanked her again.

It wasn't until they left that Qin Zhiyi looked away.

She knew that even if the mother and daughter said so, she couldn't believe it. Just by looking at their faces, she knew that the mother and daughter would not stay long.

After dealing with this matter, Qin Zhiyi went back to her room, took a nap, and when she woke up, Grandma also asked about Wang.

"Good granddaughter, how about the eldest son's reply?"
