The fat peasant girl wants to counterattack

The family's surname is Jiang. He is about forty years old and has two sons and two daughters. Except for the youngest son, who is only eight years old this year, the others have grown up.

This family originally owned a shop and was a foreigner. The shop was robbed by refugees a few days ago. After the debts were paid off, there would be nothing left. There was no land, so I had no choice but to buy myself.

Yue Mingzhu could see that this blow was quite serious to them, and the whole family was forced to smile.

Also, the family used to run a shop, not to mention being rich and wealthy, and had no worries about food and drink, but everything was wiped out overnight and they were reduced to maids. It would be difficult for anyone to bear such a psychological gap.

This family's hometown is further south, close to **lingguan. According to them, even their hometown is suffering from severe drought at this time, the people have been displaced, a large number of refugees have been produced, and the people are starving.

His youngest son was still young and naive, and did not understand the sinister nature of people. One day, he saw a starving woman lying on the side of the road. The younger son quickly went back to the shop to get some steamed buns and water. Now he was causing trouble for the nearby area. The refugees swarmed forward, and the younger son was immediately surrounded. Some even had bad intentions and threatened them with the younger son. They had no choice but to spend their wealth in exchange for the younger son.

It’s hard to be a good person these days!

It's not that they haven't thought about simply escaping, but where to go? Life is not easy everywhere now, and it might be even more difficult if they go to other places without any friends. If they sell themselves, they can still have food to eat. If you run away without any money, you might starve to death halfway.

When these things are mentioned, the whole family feels remorseful. The younger son also feels extremely guilty, feeling that he has harmed the family and caused his parents, brothers and sisters to fall into this state.

When Yue Mingzhu heard this, she felt very heavy. What happened to this family was just a small thing that happened in the Qian Dynasty. But if millions of families were experiencing this kind of thing, how could the people make a living?

The man in the last family is named Zhao. He is only in his early thirties. He is young and strong. The man has a heroic look on his face, his wife is gentle and graceful, and his two sons are also generous. This family is extraordinary at first glance, and everyone in the family knows it. Words are broken, men are good at martial arts, and women are good at women.

According to Ren Yazi, many people had taken a fancy to this family before, but the family was unwilling to follow, so they stayed until now.

Originally, as slaves, Yaxing had the final say where they wanted to sell them. However, the family did not know where they were from. Someone specifically told them that it was up to the family to decide where they wanted to go. If they didn’t want to Go, don't force it.

Yaren felt unlucky, this was not a slave, it was clearly an ancestor.

Yue Mingzhu asked them about their origins, but they all remained silent and only promised that they would never cause trouble to their master's family and would definitely be loyal to their master's family.

Yue Mingzhu is currently short of manpower. It seems that this family is capable. No matter what, as long as they are loyal to her, she is not afraid of trouble. We will talk about the future later.

Yue Mingzhu and Mrs. Wang took the group to a food stall and ordered a bowl of noodles for each of them.

Yaxing also guarantees that people will not die of hunger. It is obviously impossible to eat well. Everyone wolfed down the food, except the Zhao family. Although they also ate a lot of noodles, they were not rude at all. It can be seen that they are well-bred and well-mannered, and they are really not ordinary people.

Yue Mingzhu asked these people to wait here. She took Old Mrs. Wang to go shopping. After finally coming to the county town, she had to take the old lady to relax.

She is not worried about these people running away. The deeds of sale are all in her hands. According to the laws of the Qian Dynasty, if a slave runs away, he will become a fugitive slave. Once he is caught, it will be a death penalty. Yue Mingzhu first took her mother to a cloth shop. The cloth shop not only sold cloth, but also ready-made clothes and embroidery, which her mother loved the most.

As expected of a cloth shop in the county, there are indeed more patterns than those in the town. However, Yue Mingzhu looked at these embroideries carefully. Although she was not an expert, she could still tell at a glance that they were far from comparable to those embroidered by her mother. , no wonder the cloth shops in the town were willing to pay high prices for her mother's embroidery.

The female shopkeeper of Buzhuang also noticed the mother and daughter and entertained them warmly.

She discovered that although the mother and daughter were only wearing ordinary fine cotton clothes, the embroidery on the cuffs and neckline was extraordinary at first glance.

Her family's fabric shop is the largest in the county. As long as it is the most fashionable pattern in the county, her family has it. She is used to seeing good things, but such an embroiderer is not enough even if she has been running the fabric shop for many years. Common.

Their cloth shop supports many embroiderers, and they all choose the ones with the best embroidery skills in the county. But she dares to say that although the embroidery patterns on the clothes of the mother and daughter are relatively simple, any embroiderer in her cloth shop can do it well. Nothing like this.

She was a little excited. If she could find this hidden embroidery master, would her cloth shop be able to take it to the next level?

She pretended not to take Mrs. Wang's hand, and then pretended to be surprised and said: "Hey, the flowers on this dress are really well embroidered, sister, don't be surprised, I've been doing this for a long time. , I always like to pay attention to these things, ah, this is your daughter, right? The embroidery on your daughter’s clothes, could it be embroidered by you yourself?"

When she talked about her areas of expertise and hobbies, Mrs. Wang instantly became happy. Like the female shopkeeper and her sisters who had been separated for eight hundred years, she had endless things to say.

"Sister, you are really discerning. I embroidered it myself, and it's not that good. Even if I embroider it blindly when I have nothing to do, it will definitely not be as good as the embroidery from your cloth shop."

The old lady was modest about herself, but her back molars were visible in her grin.

The female shopkeeper was so smart. She immediately held her hand and said, "Sister, you are so humble. It is rare to see someone as capable and humble as you. My maiden name is Xu and my maiden name is Huiniang. I hit it off with you, honestly. He said, I can't even talk to my biological sister like this, if you don't mind, just call me Huiniang from now on."

Old Mrs. Wang was also very excited and said, "My husband's family name is Yue, and my maiden name is Hongxiu." As for her natal family, she does not recognize the Wang family as her natal family, which is bad luck!

The two quickly introduced each other's situation, and they almost became sworn brothers.

Xu Huiniang is a businesswoman who puts business first. Although she does like Mrs. Wang's refreshing energy, she has not forgotten her original intention.

"Sister Hongxiu, come to my cloth shop. I don't want you to sit there doing embroidery work every day. As long as you can do it when you have nothing to do, you can give guidance to my embroiderer. I will never treat my sister badly."

Seeing that the mother and daughter were simply dressed, she thought their family background was average.

Old Mrs. Wang didn't want to think about it but said: "Sister Huiniang, I probably don't have such luck. You don't know. Now my family is very busy and I can't get away from it. I have a workshop at home and I am very busy every day. I am also very busy." Just embroider something to pass the time in the evening.”
