Chapter 25 Buying a Minion

The elder of the Lin family was born as a Jinshi and had been an official for many years. Because he had been ill for a while, his straightforward temper was not suitable for officialdom, and because the clan needed someone to teach the children, he retired from his official position to study ethnicity.

Just now I deliberately tortured Wang Yi, and seeing that he really had some ideas, he didn't waste his studies, so his face looked a lot better, he gave him his study notes, and gave him some pointers, and he readily agreed to find him a martial arts master.

Not bothering the two masters with one thing, he seems to like Wang Yi very much, let him come to the house every now and then, and just come and ask if he doesn't understand.

Mr. Lin was an official, a Jinshi background, teaching a scholar is not easy, Wang Yi felt more at ease.

The old lady felt relieved after finishing this matter.

The two went to the yard to pick up Li Hui and go back together.

Li Hui bought a family of four as slaves, and planned to take them back to Wangjia Village, mainly to take care of the old lady and children, an old man with two children, working hard.

She wants to look at the tea garden and then slowly build some property. Instead of taking care of it in the village every day, there are slaves to help with the work, so the old lady doesn't have to do the hard work of washing clothes and cooking. This monthly payment is still affordable.

"Mother, look, this is a family of four I chose, two children, a husband and wife, both of whom are responsible."

Li Hui introduced it to the old lady.

The husband and wife seemed to be honest people, with patched clothes, and stood with their heads down. They were followed by two children, one big and one small. The older one was a girl, who seemed to be eight years old.

The youngest is a five or six-year-old boy, very clever, with curious eyes.

"What have you done before?"

"I used to work in a landlord's house. I cook in the kitchen. I can cook soup and meals. I can also cook many kinds of side dishes. My family used to be a farmer. I can do field work. The land was lost in the disaster. The whole family Come out and find work.

We have only one request, the family should not be separated, and I don't care about the hard work. "

"Where are the men?"

"Going back to the old lady, I can drive the car, watch the gate, do field work, and do carpentry."

"You know the rules."

"Understood, I learned from the landlord's house. The landlord passed away, and the mistress was going to go out with her son. She sold us all, and the housekeeper bought us."

"Well, Wenwen, let's see if you can let that little girl serve you."

Mrs. Wang patted her granddaughter's head, since she has money, she can't wrong my granddaughter.

"What's your name, what do you know?"

Wenwen was not afraid at all, she stepped forward and pointed at the little girl to ask.

"Girl Hui, my name is Sun Dani, and my brother's name is Sun An, Ankang's An. The servant has learned a few words, but he doesn't know much, and my brother is illiterate.

The slaves and maids know all the rules. They used to be the third-class maids who served the young ladies. They could make tea and sweep, and embroidered purses. "

"Why don't you have a big name, Dani can only be considered a nickname."

Sun Dani immediately knelt on the ground, "I beg the girl to give her a name."

"You're quite clever. Well, let me give you the word Yun. Ruxiang's Yun, herbal plants can be used as medicine, and the whole body is full of treasures. Sun Yun, do you like it?"

Wenwen thought about it and named her this name, which is easy to remember and practical.

"Slaves like it."

The husband and wife are also very happy.

"Then, Sun Yun stays with me to play, Sun An stays with Hunchun, my father, just ask Uncle Sun to drive my father's car."

"to make."

Wang Yi is an adult now, so it doesn't matter if he wants a servant or not.

The sale contract was signed, and Li Hui handed it over to her mother-in-law for safekeeping.

The old lady Wang gave it to her granddaughter, "Wenwen, you have to learn to raise your eyebrows and lower your eyes when you grow up. I will keep this for you."

"okay, I get it."

Wenwen was very happy that grandma trusted her, so she put all the contracts in the bead box given to her by the Lin family.

"Then let's go back. I asked the housekeeper to find a couple to guard the gate in the courtyard. Isn't the uncle coming to visit the Lin family every now and then, and staying for a short time?"

"Row."

"Mother, I have rented out one of the two shops, and the rent has been collected. You can keep it, and the housekeeper said that he will not rent it. His son wants to open a tavern, and his son and daughter-in-law can cook, and the craftsmanship is quite good. , the butler wants to do it."

"Oh, does he want to rent or what?"

"He wants to work with us. He has no capital, we pay the capital, their family will do it, [-] points, we [-] and [-], it is more cost-effective than doing it for others."

Li Hui reported to her mother-in-law.

"Well, this is not too much more than the amount given to Feng Hong. This butler is a capable person. If you want to do it, do it. If you do a good job and your character is trustworthy, you can also increase your money in the future."

"Yes, he also has two sons who are quite capable and plan to train them so that they can be independent in the future."

"Well, look at it. If there are slaves, let the slaves do it. If Brother Yi wants to study, he can't get too much in the way of businessmen, otherwise the official career will be cut off. You have to be measured."

"Yes, I listen to mother."

Li Hui helped the old lady into the carriage.

He brought his servants back to Wangjiacun. The steward said that Zhuangzi was not easy to find. He was still looking for it, and asked Wang Yi, if he found Zhuangzi, could his two sons manage Zhuangzi? This is what children used to do. ,skilled.

Wang Yi said that as long as their family is willing to do things well, they will not lose.

After returning home, Mrs. Wang said, "Hui'er, Mrs. Sun, go and boil water. After a while, your family will take a shower and change clothes."

Li Hui has found clothes for the whole family in advance, and they are also ready-made clothes. They are very ordinary clothes, very cheap, and can be worn after changing.

"Yes."

The whole family went to the ear room one by one to take a bath and change their clothes before they could come to serve.

"Let me just put it this way, our family doesn't have so many rules, and we don't do much work. Grandma Sun, you will wash clothes and cook, and your man will be responsible for driving the car. There is not much physical work in the yard, so just do it.

The child can follow my granddaughter and grandson, right? "

"Listen to you, don't worry, leave the work inside and outside the house to us."

"Row."

Mrs. Wang nodded and led the family around, teaching her how to live in the house.

Grandma Sun led her daughter to the kitchen to cook, and dinner will be served soon.

From now on, it will be enough for old man Sun to go to the county to buy meat and so on. There are two donkey carts at home, which is also convenient.

Sun An is too young, and he has to learn the rules from Wang Yi, and he may become a servant with Zhou Hui in the future.

Wang Yi handed over the rent of the shop to the housekeeper, and asked his son to work on the tavern. First, let's see what his ability is. After he gets it done, he will consider reusing his family. If he can't get it right, he can only manage the tea garden. It's not difficult to buy another butler, let's wait and see.

The old lady gave all the money and banknotes that Li Hui gave her to her granddaughter.

Li Hui doesn't ask these questions either. The old lady hurts her granddaughter like her eyeballs. She can teach her whatever she wants. She also thinks that what the old lady taught her granddaughter is more suitable for ancient times. It is good for her daughter to learn more. Being too different is not a good thing. .

"Grandma, can I teach Yun'er how to read? I don't like illiterate girls."

"Okay, but don't worry, let's see what your character is saying first."

"Okay, I'll listen to grandma."
