I'll be a nanny for the lord

Chapter 385 Find out the details
"What good thing?"

Seeing her so happy, Gu Tuo knew that what she was going to say was definitely a happy event!

as predicted.

Xia Ying told him with a smile: "I went out to buy someone yesterday, and by accident, I bought a woman who can dial an abacus, and the mother and child bought it together, and it only cost 12 taels of silver!"

She had planned to tell him the good news last night.As a result, as soon as this man heard that he liked his good figure, he immediately started showing off his figure like crazy in front of her.And I was useless, I was so fascinated by him that I forgot the business!
But fortunately, it's not too late to say now.

"So cheap?" Gu Tuo was very surprised when he heard that, "Then they must all be disabled! And it must be very serious."

He guessed it right!

Xia Ying nodded: "The faces of the three mother and child were burnt by the fire, and there is another woman pulling two children, so ordinary people don't want it. But I don't mind, it's cheap anyway! By the way, this woman also How nice it is to be able to teach Xiaoqi to keep accounts and dial the abacus, and for boys and girls to play with Hao, Xiaoqifu and the others!"

Physical disability was nothing to her.On the contrary, she was able to use money to save the poor mother and child, and also gained enough benefits for herself. She felt that she had made a lot of money!

After hearing this, Gu Tuo nodded, "That's indeed a good deal. But how did they get burned?"

"There were too many things yesterday, I didn't have time to ask. But today I want to have a good chat with them." Xia Ying said.

As soon as I bought the person yesterday, the prefect's third son asked for trouble, and the hero Ye Yongsheng saved the beauty.Then they made a lot of money outside, and it was already evening when they returned home.

Xia Ying had to arrange accommodation for them, prepare bedding, and distribute cloth to them.After such a busy schedule, she was almost exhausted, so how could she have the energy to find out more?
Just before Gu Tuo came back, she was immersed in painting, which was her unique way of recuperating.

Gu Tuo said: "Then I will go with you!"

Huh?
Xia Ying was very curious: "Since when did you start meddling in these trivial matters at home?"

This man is careless and doesn't even bother to take care of housework.But fortunately, he didn't care about it, and he never talked too much, let alone criticize Xia Ying because of something bad.So the two get along very happily.

Gu Tuo said: "I didn't intend to intervene, I was just curious about the mother and child. After all, a woman who can write and count is still rare these days. How did she get reduced to this point? And Her son...Generally speaking, if you go to the mother to keep the son, you also want to keep the son. Good boy, why are they thrown out and sold together? "

There is a lot of strangeness in this matter, he will inevitably pay more attention to it,
Xia Ying nodded. "I also find it strange. That's why I specially left them today, just to plan to raise my spirits and fight wits and courage with them!"

"I knew it, you're a ghost!" Gu Tuo said.

Xia Ying gave him a white look. "pardon?"

"Let me tell you, my daughter-in-law is very smart, and she takes everything into consideration in her heart. I can rest assured that you will take care of the housework for me!" Gu Tuo immediately changed his words.

Xia Ying just snorted softly. "You can talk!"

She stretched herself: "Okay, let's have breakfast first! When I run out, I should call them all over and check the details one by one."

"Well, I'll sit next to you to add a little deterrent to them." Gu Tuo said.

He grew up tall and burly, and when he was not talking or smiling, he looked like a King Kong. This posture was indeed quite bluffing.

Xia Ying nodded quickly: "Call Brother Hao and Sister Fu and Xiao Qi. They are older, and they should learn how to look at people. By the way, they have to choose by themselves."

"Of course, I'll call them here!" Gu Tuo hurried out.

Today's breakfast is cooked by the cook.This cook was a servant in a merchant's house before, so she is good at cooking.She made the small wontons and spring rolls for breakfast beautifully and deliciously.

Xia Ying finally didn't have to cook by herself, she was so relaxed, she ate a round belly before she knew it.

After she was full, she called all the people who bought yesterday and asked them about their details one by one.

While she was asking, Brother Hao was recording at the side, sister Fu and Xiaoqi also held their deeds of sale in their hands for comparison, Xia Ying released him only after confirming that they were correct.As for the inaccurate ones, Xia Ying didn't dare to keep them, so she immediately asked Gu Tuo to ask them to return them to the dentist.

Seeing this family's attitude of being ready, these servants were all cautious and dared not hide a word, and they also subconsciously respected this family from the bottom of their hearts from young to old.

However, in fact, most of the servants Xia Ying bought were rough envoys. Except for one person who had a problem, the others were all honest and responsible people.They just went through the cutscene once, and it was over.

As for the three mother and son who can settle accounts, Xia Ying deliberately left them at the end.

After dealing with all the people in front, it was finally the turn of the three of them to come in.

"The servant has seen the madam, the master, and the young lady."

After entering the door, the woman hurriedly knelt down and saluted with her two children.

"It's a family now, don't be so polite in the future, get up quickly!" Xia Ying said quickly.

"Thank you, madam." The woman still thanked respectfully, and then got up.

Xia Yingcai said: "I see it's written on your contract of sale, your name is Lu Yueniang?"

"Returning to Madam, yes."

"And your sons and daughters, they are called Lu Qingyun and Lu Qinghui respectively——they are all named after you?"

"No, they followed their father's surname. It's just that the servant girl grew up in the master's house without a surname. Later, the master showed mercy and let the servant girl take his surname Lu." Lu Yueniang said.

Xia Ying became even more curious. "Since your master took such pains to name both of you, mother and child, it means that he values ​​you very much in his heart. You must have practiced your abacus for a long time, right? If so, you Why did it fall to this point again?"

Lu Yueniang's shoulders shook.

"Because... the master passed away."

Xia Ying's heart tightened.

"In the past, the master took care of the three of us, mother and child. However, once the master left, the mistress couldn't tolerate us anymore. But she didn't want to get a bad name for being harsh on the people around her before she was alive, so she took advantage of the time when the three of us were sleeping. , directly set a fire, trying to burn us to death." Lu Yueniang said slowly.

"Then, she announced to the outside world that we were martyred for our master."
