reborn child bride

Chapter 17 Negotiation ([-])

The sound is too low to hear.Come here, you can't work for nothing.Shen Ji took out the simple eavesdropping equipment he made himself from his bosom, put a bamboo joint on the mud wall at one end, and put his ear close to the other end.Modern TV programs can be said to be all-encompassing and teach everything, and in this situation it can still be helpful.

"What an unfamiliar white-eyed wolf! You said you have to treat her sincerely in order to keep her. Am I not sincere enough?" Aunt Wei said angrily.

Sure enough, Sesame Steamed Bun had seen her through, and speaking of it, his method was not bad. If she hadn't come from the modern age where everyone has their own autonomy, she might have been taken down by such means.

And she was not mistaken, this family is actually headed by Wei Ying.

"Mother, don't you think sister Ji is weird? We treat her like this, and she still wholeheartedly wants to redeem herself."

"Yes, you asked me to treat her well, and after she came, your illness was cured, and our family's life also improved. I regard her as a lucky star, even my own daughter is nothing more than that. Give her Make new clothes, let her have enough food and clothing, and build a house specially for her. She has lost physical health in the past, and I have thought of many ways to help her make up for it. But it is still like this!"

After a while, Wei Ying's voice sounded again, "Mother, do you think there is such a possibility that Sister Ji is not a child of a poor family at all. It's just that something happened that made her poor, and she even had to sell herself to bury her father."

"You said she was from a poor family?"

"Well, she can read and write. I'm afraid something happened at home before she was able to practice writing at a young age. And she can cook a lot of food, which must be taught. If she is from everyone, she can do it if she wants to. Like that People will also deliberately train their daughters. In addition to piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, there are also female craftsmen cooking and knitting. In this way, even if you don’t do it yourself in the future, you will never be fooled by servants. Maybe she is interested in cooking, so she learned it in advance And she likes to make decisions by herself in everything, and she is very assertive, which is not what ordinary people's daughters may have. Especially the fact that she doesn't want to be a slave is very obvious. At the beginning, she was forced to sell her body to bury her father, but once she had the opportunity, she would Grab it and try to redeem yourself."

Hearing this, Shen Ji felt that what should be heard had already been heard.Sesame Steamed Bun has been doubting himself, but he has given his own understanding of this suspicion, which is still good for him.Judging from what he meant, he should try his best to persuade Aunt Wei.Shen Ji went back to the well and continued to fetch water, speeding up to hide that he walked away for a while.

Shen Ji didn't hear the following content, and regretted it after a long time.If she had known earlier, she might have tried her best to avoid some things.

Aunt Wei thought for a while after listening to what Wei Ying said, "If that's the case, her life experience is somewhat similar to yours. Then I won't force her to be a slave. But in this way, I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to come together." I'm useless for the expenses required for the exam. It's fine if I can't let you study with peace of mind."

"Without you, I would have died a long time ago. And it was because of my poor health that I spent all the money I brought out these years. But don't worry too much, as long as Sister Ji is willing and thinks of ways, maybe the income will be better than now. Moreover, as long as I do well in the exam this time, there will be a way to alleviate the current embarrassment."

"Ok?"

"Ji wants to partner with me to sell Spring Festival couplets. I think it should be more profitable than she thinks, because in addition to selling people in the village, she can also go to the market to sell. Sister Ji is not yet nine years old, and she has nowhere to go. If She has already thought of a way. She will stay at Wei's house for the past few years. According to what I said, you should treat her as well as possible and give her some sweetness. Let her be willing to think of ways to make money, everyone All benefit. As for other things, we have to wait until my results come out this time.”

"it is good."

After Shen Ji finished fetching water, seeing that the mother and son hadn't come out yet, he went to the kitchen to make dough and prepare to roll out the dough to make dumplings.

When Aunt Wei came to the kitchen, Shen Ji had already made more than 20 cabbage and meat dumplings.There is white radish bone soup stewed in the pot. Today's stew is steak, so you can have a good bone.

"Ma'am, I can do it alone, you can rest."

Aunt Wei looked at it, and there were eight dumplings in a row, even in size, thin skin and big belly, very pleasing.Thinking about it carefully, Sister Ji can make a lot of things, and what she picks to sell is the most trouble-free.

Therefore, Sister Ji actually still has strength.Just because she can only draw 45 out of [-], there is no motivation.Moreover, if she is really from everyone as Yinger said, it would be a grievance for her to be a girl all the time.Moreover, if she redeemed herself with five taels of silver, she would have to earn back [-] taels of silver for the Wei family.When I bought her at the beginning, I just wanted to protect Ying'er from disaster, and it was already worth the money.

Well, there's no need to squeeze people too hard.As long as she can come up with five taels of silver, let her redeem herself.Anyway, she can only stay in Wei's house afterwards, if she wants to share half, she can share half.

"Sister Ji, I seldom hear you mention things about your childhood."

Shen Ji kept wrapping his hands, "Actually, I don't really remember many things. I just remember my father took me to wander around, and after my father was gone, I came to Wei's house." I don't believe it, you guys You can also find the people who fled together at the beginning to ask.Shen Ji knew that Aunt Wei had probably been persuaded by Wei Ying, and his heart jumped for joy.

"Oh, that's it. Then you can treat the Wei family as your home from now on."

"Okay. Auntie, the pork rib soup is ready, you can ask the young master to drink the soup. I will cook the dumplings here, and they will be ready soon."

That night, after Shen Ji washed the dishes and put them back in the cupboard, Wei Ying called her in the main room.

"Come here and write a few words for me to see."

"Okay!" Shen Ji washed his hands and dried them on the apron, and went to write in Wei Ying's room.

This is the first time she has actually dipped in ink to write, and she is a little nervous.

Wei Ying paid attention to Shen Ji holding the pen, turned his wrist, and then said: "I practiced it myself, it's not bad. But it should be like this." He held Shen Ji's hand from behind to teach her, and the other hand Standing on the edge of the desk is like wrapping Shen Ji in his arms.Shen Ji was taken aback. Speaking of which, she was eight or nine years old. Based on this calculation, she would be able to marry in another four or five years.Would this be inappropriate?
"Understood?" Wei Ying's voice sounded in her ear.Shen Ji could hear a slight change in his voice, this kid has reached puberty.

"Huh?" Shen Ji didn't respond, Wei Ying asked aloud.

Shen Ji looked at the words "safety in and out" that appeared on the paper, nodded, "Master, I understand."

Next, Wei Ying instructed Shen Ji for a while, and seeing that she was much better than before, she took the book to read by herself.There are still three months to go before the exam. He had been in a private school in the village before, and he had been ill for a long time, so he had to hurry up.

Aunt Wei felt something was wrong before, so Wei Ying called Shen Ji out while reading a book.Seeing the handwriting she wrote, I couldn't help being a little surprised, "You girl, you actually practiced handwriting so well behind my back."
