reborn child bride

Chapter 16 Discussion (Part [-])

In the past few months, she has eaten well, dressed warmly and has to work every day, and now she has grown taller and gained a lot of weight.Even my hair has really become black and shiny because I have been eating black sesame seeds, and it has also increased.Today, Aunt Wei combed her a very cute double bun, with two blue ribbons tied on it, which floated back and forth as she walked, adding a bit of beauty to her.

Shen Ji came here stepping on the spot, and it happened to be the time when he was just studying in the afternoon.She waited at the door, and Wei Ying came out quickly.Today, Auntie Wei didn't come with her, so some classmates joked: "Wei Ying, look, your little daughter-in-law has brought you food again. It's so good, the dishes are delicious and delicious. You have a good fortune in your life."

"Don't talk nonsense!" Wei Ying glanced at Fatty Hu with his hands on his shoulders. Since he tasted the food made by sister Ji last time, this guy has been wanting to trade with him.

Fatty Hu is the young master of a rich family, and the food tray delivered by his family every day is also rich in dishes, including fish and meat.But he said that he was tired of the cooking skills of the cook at home.Fatty Hu is a nice person, straightforward and generous, and Wei Ying is also willing to make friends with him.Anyway, sharing dishes is a matter of mutual benefit, so it is often unavoidable.Now that he has developed to the present, every time he comes out with him, he will first see what dishes Sister Ji sent.

"Who's talking nonsense, don't all the girls belong to the young master? In the future, if you marry the daughter of a high official on the gold list, you can also let Jijie be a young girl. Of course, you will have good luck in your life."

Shen Ji hated this kind of talk very much, and while handing over the food drawer and earthen jar to Wei Ying, he said, "Master, I don't even give him the dishes and soup I cook."

Before Wei Ying could make a sound, Fatty Hu refused, "Hey, you're a girl. You don't have a place to talk."

Shen Ji stared at him, then looked at Wei Ying, who smiled slightly and said, "Our girls are different from others." At the same time, he asked, "Sister Ji, what do you have for lunch?"

Fatty Hu saw that Wei Ying really meant not to have dinner with him, so he muttered, "We value sex over friends."

Wei Ying glanced at him, "You still said that sister Ji is only eight years old."

"In another five years, I will be able to add fragrance to your red sleeves."

Wei Ying had already handed over five cents to Shen Ji one step ahead of him: "Take it to buy food." Wei Ying always knew that Shen Ji's money would not move even a dime, and she also knew that she would save money. what to do.I go home once a month, and when I read a book in the latrine at night, I can still hear the sound of counting copper coins in Shen Ji's room.Now it is very cold to sleep in the firewood house, so Mrs. Wei asked a mason in the village to build a small room for Shen Ji next to the firewood house.

"I have. My aunt gave me two renminbi to buy sesame seed cakes." For two renminbi, you can have a sesame seed cake and a bowl of camellia oil, which can fill you up.

"There is no choice for two pennies. You can eat better if you take it together. Don't you like delicious food the most?"

Shen Ji was not too polite, so he took it, but she had something to say to Wei Ying today, so she managed to avoid Aunt Wei, but Fatty Hu was still there.

Seeing this, Wei Ying asked, "What's the matter?" while handing the food tray to Fatty Hu, "Take it and heat it for me."

Shen Ji's refusal to give him food was just a casual remark, and just now Wei Ying also helped her find the place, so she didn't care about it.In fact, she doesn't mind being made a little joke about, but she just doesn't like the tone of Fatty Hu's talking about the girl as the young master's personal property.But this is the way of the world, so it's meaningless to care about it.Anyway, she won't be someone's housekeeper.

Fatty Hu walked in with the food tray in hand, "Okay, let's talk in a whisper."

Seeing him walking away, Shen Ji said, "Master, I want to sell Spring Festival couplets."

Wei Ying raised her eyebrows, "Don't you know how to write?"

"I secretly copied the words you left at home. I took a brush you didn't use and dipped it in water to write on paper."

Wei Ying glanced at her, "Didn't you already have this idea in mind?"

"Well, ever since I heard that a pair of well-written ones cost ten renminbi and common ones cost five renminbi, I've been making up my mind." Shen Ji confessed honestly that she needed Wei Ying's help.

"Then what do you want me to do for you? Keep it from my mother?" The little girl wants to earn money from her own house, so it's not impossible to discuss it.

"Well, young master, let's be a partner. You can write some words for me and let me go back and copy them. I will share half of the money you earn." Shen Zhi's purpose is to make money, and the second is to try Wei Ying's way of partnering. Attitude.There is nothing to discuss with Aunt Wei, she will not agree.She just needs Shen Ji to stay in the Wei family so honestly and earn money for the Wei family.But Wei Ying is different. Wei Ying knows that every time she has to give her some sweets, she can work better by sharing one-tenth of her income.

Sure enough, Wei Ying quickly figured out Shen Ji's intentions, "You want to cooperate with me like this when you redeem yourself in the future?"

"Well, can I? I have [-] Wen now. I calculated that selling Spring Festival couplets during the Chinese New Year should make me a few hundred Wen. When you go to the exam in March, I can save enough for two taels of silver."

Wei Ying thought for a while, "We can talk about the partnership, but what about redemption, sister Ji, you are so capable, who is willing to let you go?"

Shen Ji's cheeks were a little puffed up immediately, if she couldn't redeem herself, would she have to be a cow and a horse for the Wei family for the rest of her life.Wei Ying couldn't help but want to pinch her a little bit, Ji Jie looks much better now than when she first arrived at Wei's house.

"Master, I'm only eight or nine years old, and I have nowhere to go after leaving the Wei family. I will still have to work for your family when the time comes, but I can't be a slave all the time."

Wei Ying looked at Shen Ji, "Sister Ji, you were not the daughter of a peasant family before, right?" How can ordinary people have such a strong desire to refuse to be a slave, and there are so many thoughts.

"Could it be that I have become a servant of your family now. I didn't press the fingerprints myself." The more Shen Ji thought about it, the more aggrieved he became.

"Isn't it because you wanted to sell yourself to bury your father, and then my mother kindly bought you?"

Shen Ji couldn't say that it wasn't me at all, so he could only sulk silently, "Okay, master, it's fine if you don't agree." After speaking, he turned around and wanted to leave.

Wei Ying held onto her pannier, "You don't want to sell Spring Festival couplets anymore?"

Shen Ji felt that if she could not redeem herself, she would have no motivation to save money, let alone the passion to work.She originally had great hopes for Wei Ying, because he is smart and has a brain and is easy to communicate with in some aspects.But he didn't agree, and Aunt Wei must be even more unreasonable.That's the law here, and she can't fight it.

Wei Ying saw Shen Ji's look of hopelessness, "Okay, I promise you, you can redeem yourself. However, two taels of silver is not enough, five taels of silver is required."

Shen Ji looked at him and cursed "sesame buns" in his heart, but it's always good to have hope, "Aren't you lying?"
