The first assistant of the poor family

Chapter 20 Miss Shuiyun
(Please collect, please recommend tickets!)

After Xie Shen went home and told his eldest brother and sister-in-law that they would be leaving the city for a few days, he, Wang Shouwen and Xie Pi went to live in Zhuangzi in the south of the city together.

Surrounded by dozens of house slaves from the Wang and Xie families, the group hurried out of the south city gate and headed towards Tushan along the path.

Only at this moment can Xie Shen truly appreciate the arrogant and extravagant living conditions of the children of the aristocratic family.Not only are they more expensive in terms of food and clothing, but even when they are tired from playing in the city, they can go to live in Zhuangzi outside the city for fun.Damn feudalism.In such an era, if you don't become a part of the upper class, you will only be swallowed by the torrent.

For a poor family like Xie Shen, the imperial examination is the only way out.

The Zhuangzi of the Wang family was built on the hillside of the earth mountain, so it is not difficult to find.

Perhaps because of the long-term future of the Wang family's children, when a large group of people crowded in front of the gate of the village, the old housekeeper who stayed behind at the village was shocked.

The reason Wang Shouwen gave was a bit far-fetched, but he was the young master, and the old butler couldn't say much, so he had to welcome everyone into the manor.

The servants of Wang and Xie's families were naturally arranged to sleep in Datong's bunk in the servant's wing. As for Xie Shen, Wang Shouwen, and Xie Pi all had their own rooms, they naturally lived very comfortably.

The Zhuangzi's geographical location is excellent, there is no severe heat in summer and no severe cold in winter.As for spring and autumn, it is surprisingly comfortable.

Since it was already dark, Xie Shen took off his outer robe after entering the room, and prepared to go to bed in a middle coat and trousers.Going to bed early and getting up early was a struggle for Xie Shen.After all, he had the habit of playing with his mobile phone before going to bed in his previous life, and he played it in the middle of the night.In the Ming Dynasty, the entertainment life at night was almost zero. If you don’t sleep, you can only lie in bed and count sheep
Just when Xie Shen was in a daze and was about to close his eyes and fall asleep, the door of the room was suddenly pushed open.A tall woman in a thin shirt came in with an oil lamp.

Xie Shen sat up in a jerk and shouted, "Who are you?"

The woman was obviously taken aback, and the oil lamp in her hand almost fell.

"Master Xie, it was the third young master who asked the slave family to serve you."

"Three young masters?"

Xie Shen was taken aback for a moment, and then realized that the third young master that the maid was talking about was Wang Shouwen.

Finally heaving a sigh of relief, Xie Shen waved his hands and said, "Sit down first, sit down and talk."

Although the maid felt that the atmosphere in the room was a bit awkward, she obeyed Xie Shen's order and sat down on the round stool beside her.The oil lamp was placed on the table of the Eight Immortals nearby, and the flickering light of the fire was breathtaking.

The atmosphere in this room is really embarrassing.Xie Shen swallowed, stood up and walked towards the maid.

"What's your name?"

"Report to Mr. Xie, my family name is Shui Yun."

The maid was not shy, she said in a deep voice.

Xie Shen nodded, this kind of name is definitely not his real name.A maid like Shuiyun must have signed a contract of sale since she was a child, and was sold to Wang's Zhuangzi as a slave.It is estimated that because of her pretty appearance, this Shui Yun was spared the hard life of being a rough servant girl.But even the maid is not much better, after all, she is equivalent to a member of the Wang family after signing the deed of sale, and it is inevitable to serve tea and water to see people's faces.

Sad woman, in the feudal dynasty, such a woman did not have any power to decide her own destiny, she was just like a commodity.If the master and young master of the master's heart had anger in their hearts and vented their anger on them, they could only swallow their anger and respond.

"You just said that the third young master asked you to serve me. Er, how do you serve me?"

"That's right, it's the service between men and women!"

Hearing these words, Shui Yun's cheeks were instantly stained with two blushes.Although she was fifteen or sixteen years old, she was a virgin, and she was inevitably shy when talking about men and women.

Xie Shen suddenly realized, he thought that Wang Shouwen asked Shui Yun to be his personal maid to take care of his daily life these days, but he never thought that the boy was called Shui Yun to warm his bed.
But at Xie Shen's current age, even if he really wanted to, he would be powerless.

"Oh, if that's the case, you don't have to worry. Go back and tell the third young master, I don't need your service here."

With the light of the oil lamp, Xie Shen could clearly see the outline of Shui Yun's face.This girl is about fifteen or sixteen years old. She should have matured both in figure and personality, but she is definitely a virgin, so she also has a shyness of a young girl. Such an ignorant woman is the most lovable .

But Xie Shen has no free time to talk about love and enjoy the joy of fish and water.After all, the imperial examination is the only chance for a poor boy like him to stand up. He must concentrate all his energy on the county examination in the coming year.After the county test, there is a government test, and after the government test, there is a hospital test.At least Xie Shen didn't want to be burdened by love affairs before he was admitted as a scholar.

"Young Master Xie, do you despise the slave family?"

Shui Yun's face turned pale, and her voice trembled.

Xie Shen was speechless, this Shuiyun girl would not be so open.He clearly pushed her out of the fire pit, but she wants to jump in by herself?

"I don't mean that. It's just that, how can a man start a family if he doesn't start a career? He still has to wait for the title on the gold list, and after he has achieved fame."

"That's enough. Mr. Xie clearly misunderstood what the slave family meant."

Shui Yun let out a chuckle, covered her mouth and said: "The third young master gave the slave family to Mr. Xie. As long as Mr. Xie is willing to take in the slave family, the slave family will stay with Mr. Xie to take care of the son's daily life. As for when that will happen You can do whatever you want."

Xie Shen's brain exploded.

After careful calculation, this Shui Yun is about three years older than him, if Xie Shen can pick this fruit, Shui Yun will probably be eighteen or nineteen years old.Eighteen or nineteen is an age like a flower and a jade in later generations, but in the Hongzhi Dynasty of the Ming Dynasty, she was a real old girl.

Xie Shen doesn't care about other people's eyes, but his eldest brother and sister-in-law may not be able to accept Shui Yun.

Although Xie Shen is from a poor family, if Xie Shen marries a woman who is three years older than him, the neighbors will gossip.

Shui Yun is willing to guard him for three years, and marry her after he gets the honor in the examination, but the eldest brother and sister-in-law will definitely not agree!

The only way is to take Shui Yun as a concubine, but if this is the case, wouldn't Shui Yun feel wronged?

Although it is inevitable that she will be a concubine when she is old, but being able to marry a wealthy family and not worry about food and clothing is better than following Xie Shen to sew and mend.

After all, Xie Shen is still young. Even if he can pass the imperial examination, he will have to wait for several years. Can Shui Yun afford it?
A series of questions flooded into Xie Shen's mind, and he just felt a little dazed.

"you"

Xie Shen was about to ask a question, but was interrupted by Shui Yun: "Young Master Xie, don't worry about the slave family, the slave family is willing to follow the master."
