Reborn farmhouse busy farming

Chapter 146

After breakfast, the toothmaid came to the door.

Because of the shortage of manpower here, Fang entrusted the dental shop to look out for suitable people. In the past few days, because of the arrival of the two brothers from the Qi family, he had no time to pay attention to this matter. The dental shop was really efficient and picked a few Appropriate, come to look for Mrs. Fang.

Luo Mingdu and Luo Tiandu are getting older now, especially Luo Mingdu, who is about to go out, and there must always be someone who takes care of personal affairs by his side. Fang's plan is to give Luo Mingdu and Luo Mingdu The two Tiandu sisters picked a maid one by one, because Cheng Sheng went to the army, Luo Baisu lacked a long-term follower, and Cheng Qing was the only one with outside affairs, so it was inevitable that they didn't take good care of them, and they couldn't run errands. How about an old Gu Bo?
The matchmaker led a group of young girls and young men to the yard for Mrs. Fang to watch by herself. Luo Tian felt a little worried and followed to watch the excitement.

The toothmaid saw the house full of old, weak, sick and disabled, and saw that Mrs. Fang had to do the housework herself. She also had a general understanding of the Luo family's family background, especially after seeing Luo Mingdu, she understood that Mrs. Fang probably wanted to Luo Ming picked a dowry girl.

She brought a beautiful girl with a handsome figure to Fang's, and said: "This girl is fourteen years old, and she used to be a little lady of an official family. It was only because her father committed a crime that she ended up being sold. She was also taught by female masters since she was a child, she has a little knowledge of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, female celebrities are also passable, if Madam doesn't dislike it, it's just right to stay at home and serve the two young ladies."

Luo Tian only took one look at the maid, and rejected her in his heart.She wanted to add people to the family to hire people to work. Why did she really leave such a delicate girl at home?Do you want to have a free meal?Look at those fingers, they are so beautiful and clean that they are even more supple than my own. They probably haven't done any work before.

Fang's was really thinking about choosing a maid as a dowry for Luo Mingdu.These days, I have been in contact with Luo Baisu's colleagues and female relatives a lot, and under the influence of my ears and eyes, I understand more or less the twists and turns of the big family.Although the Qi family is not an official, but the family is rich and has many relatives. In addition to Mrs. Qi, Mr. Qi has three concubines. There are three men and four women. It was born of three concubines.Such a complicated family, Luo Mingdu's simple temperament will definitely not be able to cope with it. Fang's intention is to pick a shrewd and powerful maid to help Luo Mingdu, but there is no other meaning.

This girl Piao is beautiful and delicate, she looks even more delicate than Luo Mingdu, when the two of them go out, people who don't know will think that Luo Mingdu is the maid.

Fang just glanced at it and jumped over.

The maid secretly breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Fang's eyes averted from her.She was originally a daughter of a good family, but her father committed a crime, and she ended up in such a land. Otherwise, she would not like the small courtyard where the Luo family lives now, let alone give it to the family. People have become maids.

On the contrary, the prostitute, seeing that Fang Shi was not interested, could not help showing a disappointed expression on her face.Among today's group of people, this one is the best regardless of appearance and talent. Originally, she was expected to sell for a good price, and she would get a little more money to buy wine and food.

Luo Tiandu followed Fang's back, she didn't look at anything else, she only picked those who looked honest and responsible, and had thick calluses on their hands, such people must have come from poor backgrounds and were used to working since they were young. You can't see your character anyway, so you have to pick the ones who can work first.

She is a practical person, and their family is also from a farming family. Even now, the Fang family has to do the work by themselves. Naturally, the family will not learn from those big families, and raise a group of maids and women at every turn. First, they cannot afford it, and second, there are more women It's easy to go wrong, it's really unnecessary.

It's just that the matchmaker heard that the women from the government's family were picking people at home, and among the people they sent, they were either big girls as delicate as before, or young children who were easy to train, and they were really not as good as the people Luo Tian wanted. too far.

In the end, Mrs. Fang discussed with Uncle Gu, picked out a maid and a daughter-in-law, and added a servant girl who ran around to Luo Baisu.

The maid named Xiqiao is only 15 years old this year, and she is also pretty. Luo Tian is a little bit entangled. It seems that the family will hire child labor again, but there is no way, just this Xiqiao. Among the little girls, the oldest is the one, and the others are even younger, even children as young as seven years old.

On the other hand, the daughter-in-law named Xiang Lan, although she is not very good-looking, she is eloquent and has a sharp tongue. When she speaks, she is not shy, and she is very fond of Luo Tiandu.

Xiqiao followed Luo Mingdu to take care of her food and daily life, while Xiang Lan stayed at home to help Fang's housework.

However, both Luo Tiandu and Luo Mingdu have been diligent since they were young, and Xiqiao doesn't need to do small things. Most of the time, Xiqiao just spends time with Luo Mingdu.

Luo Tiandu also turned a blind eye to this.Even if she bought it, she was really embarrassed to squeeze a teenage child, and how much effort would it take to serve tea and water by herself when something happened?
However, the arrival of Xiqiao is indeed of some use. For example, it becomes an extremely simple matter for Luo Tian to go out.

In the past, when she went out, either Cheng Qing or Gu Bo followed her.Cheng Qingnian is not very old, he has followed Luo Mingdu and his sister for a long time, and others will inevitably gossip.Uncle Gu was fine, because there was too much age difference, so others would not say anything, but Uncle Gu was getting older, after all, his physical strength was weaker. After walking for a long time, his legs and feet would inevitably hurt, and he couldn't sleep well at night.

If Xi happened to follow, Luo Tiandu could go out in a legitimate way. The only fly in the ointment was that Qi Jin also followed.

The two brothers of the Qi family have also stayed in Shangjing for several days. The eldest son Qi is busy making friends all day long. Fang felt ashamed of reading, so she asked Luo Tiandu to take him around for a walk.

Luo Tiandu has never been a person who knows how to do superficial kung fu. She hates someone in her heart, so it is inevitable to show some meaning on her face. Qi Jin looked at his face and saw that this future sister-in-law didn't like it for some reason. Own.He knew that this Luo Tiandu had a lot of status in the Luo family, and even Luo Baisu was willing to listen to her on many things, so he wanted to please her.

The eldest son of Qi has no interest in studying, so the Qi family does not force him, and only puts all their hopes on Qi Jin, so his education is quite strict. No matter what he thinks, he is smart enough not to provoke him. Therefore, Qi Jin has very few opportunities to hang out with girls. He has no experience in how to please girls. The only person he can refer to is his elder brother. A person like Young Master is not bad in appearance, has money in his family, and is usually courted by others. It really makes him humble himself to please others, but he has no experience, and the way to please him is the same way of giving things.

Qi Jin followed suit, and he would quietly hint to the boy to buy anything that both Luo Mingdu and Luo Tian had looked at a little longer.After a long time, Luo Tiandu didn't dare to look around.

She has a soft mouth for eating people and short hands for grabbing people. She doesn't want these vague favors.

It's the end of October now, and it's time to celebrate the new year in two months. They will definitely be celebrating the new year in Shangjing this year, so Luo Tiandu wants to take this opportunity to buy some gifts, and ask Qi Jin and the others to bring them to them when they go back. Go to Luojia Village.

When it comes to gift giving, it's usually something like jewelry and clothing materials from such a long distance, and it's not unusual for them to be Beijing's special products.Because of selling cards, Luo Tiandu also saved up a lot of jewelry, including gold, silver, and jade. In order to exchange money, most of them were directly taken to the shop and turned into silver, and most of the rest were rare. Beautiful, she wants to keep it for Luo Mingdu's dowry in the future, she is not willing to give it to Yao Shi and the others, after thinking about it, she thinks she should go and buy two for Yao Shi and her daughter-in-law.Originally, she didn't want to talk to Yao shi, but Fang shi persuaded her, for the sake of old man Luo, to show some kindness.

She picked out two pairs of Jin Chengcheng's earrings, Qi Jin wanted to pay first as usual, but this time Luo Tian refused no matter what.

"Master Qi, this is an annual gift for Grandma and Second Aunt. If you pay, it will be your honor to them. This is not acceptable."

Luo Mingdu also persuaded: "Exactly, no matter how high or low something is, it is always a little bit of our heart."

Luo Mingdu has become more and more lively in the past few years. He is not at all like the Luo family. Qi Jin still likes her somewhat.

He was idle and bored, so he looked around, and also wanted to buy two exquisite things for Luo Mingdu to please her.

Naturally, his eyesight was not comparable to that of country girls like Luo Mingdu and Luo Tiandu. He searched around, and finally settled on a pair of earrings with a small emerald in the innermost grid.

The shopkeeper was dozing off in front of the counter, but when he finally came to know the goods, he suddenly woke up, walked up to Qi Jin, and said with a smile: "Master, you really have a vision, this is from far away." Emeralds from the Great Food Kingdom are carved by skillful craftsmen, even if they are only the size of a mung bean, they are definitely very rare in our Daqing Dynasty."

Luo Tiandu was still picking out gold and silverware, but when he heard what the shopkeeper said, he immediately became interested.Even if she returned all her knowledge of ancient world history to the teacher the moment she left school, the Great Food Kingdom would still know about it.

Dashi is the collective name for Arab countries in ancient China. Since even the emeralds of Dashi have been passed to China, does it mean that the Daqing Dynasty is still somewhere in East Asia?

Thinking of this, she was excited!
