The Peasant Girl’s Splendid Manor

Chapter 1112: Come back and buy someone

Chapter 1112 Return to the door and buy someone

What Cui Qingrou said on the day of worship was quickly spread, and some prominent people in Beijing received mixed reviews after hearing about it. Some people lamented that the Cui family was well-educated and that the Cui girls were virtuous and virtuous. Some people secretly ridiculed her for being unable to have children and using other people's children as treasures. Others felt sympathy and thought that she was seeking a way out for herself and taking the opportunity to please her husband. Home

No matter what they think in their hearts, they have repeatedly warned the children in the family not to be careless when dealing with the Mo siblings in the future, let alone to be offensive like the Hu girls did, otherwise they will be dealt with severely according to family law.

The Mo family doesnt know the conjectures and practices of those insignificant people, and even if they do know, they will just laugh them off.

In the blink of an eye, it has been two days since Cui Qingrou married into the Mo family. In the past two days, she was accompanied by Mo Qingze and became familiar with the environment of the Mo family, ranging from the layout of the courtyard and the livestock raised to the orchards, medicine gardens, fields and wineries.

Cui Qingrou always knew that the Mo family's life was good, but she didn't expect it to be even better than she imagined. After knowing that all these properties were slowly laid down by Mo Yan, I was even more shocked and had a new understanding of this stepdaughter who was only sixteen years old.

However, Cui Qingrou is not jealous of the fact that the Mo family is rich. She was born into a noble family and had never worried about money since she was a child. Her food, clothing, housing and transportation were not comparable to those of the princesses in the palace, but they were not far behind her. She was not too short-sighted to care about her husband's family's property.

Furthermore, after she reconciled with her ex-husband, she returned to her natal family with all her dowry. The property she bought in Jiangnan was not sold, and the annual income was enough for her to live comfortably for more than ten years. Over the years, she has held huge wealth in her hands.

This time when she married into the Mo family, the Cui family provided a generous dowry. All the Mo family's betrothal gifts were included in her dowry. These items alone were enough to keep her fed and clothed for decades.

On this day, Mo Qingze took Cui Qingrou to the winery again. When they returned home in a happy mood, they saw the main hall filled with boxes of all sizes, and Mo Yan was picking through them.

"Yan'er, what are you doing?" Seeing that several of them had been seen in the warehouse and were not needed at the moment, Mo Qingze asked in confusion: "Why did you move these out too?"

Mo Yan stacked a square wooden box on another pile of wooden boxes and rolled his eyes when he heard this: "Dad, you haven't forgotten what day tomorrow is, have you? You and your mother will come back tomorrow. If I dont prepare the homecoming gift in advance, will you have time to prepare it tomorrow?

Um, come back? Mo Qingze looked at his newlywed wife beside him, with a slight embarrassment on his face. He had really forgotten about returning home.

"Yan'er, thank you for reminding me, otherwise I would have forgotten." Cui Qingrou was also embarrassed. She had spent the past two days so comfortably that she never thought of returning home.

Mo Yan waved her hand, pointed at the pile of gift boxes that had been sorted, and said: "Father, mother, you first check to see if these fit well enough. If there are any deficiencies, tell them. If there are no ones in the warehouse, you can come to the city later." Buy it back from here.

Cui Qingrou looked through it for a while and saw that there were tea cakes, sugar cakes and other items that should be prepared for the homecoming ceremony. She quickly said: "Enough, enough, these are already a lot, there is no need to buy anything else."

Mo Yan had checked it twice before and knew that there wouldn't be any big problems. Now he was relieved to hear what Cui Qingrou said. He pointed at the two small white porcelain jars placed on the table and said, "The ones installed here are This is home-brewed honey, which is better than the ones sold outside. Grandma and my cousin will enjoy it. Dont forget to take it with you tomorrow.

These two jars of honey are made by bees in the space, and the quality is much better than the honey made by the more than 20 boxes of bees in the orchard. It not only amplifies the health-care effects of ordinary honey several times, but also has some functions that ordinary honey does not have, which is very beneficial to the elderly Mrs. Cui and the pregnant women.

Cui Qingrou was very touched by Mo Yan's thoughtfulness: "Your grandmother and cousin will be very happy to know that you are thinking about them."

Looking at Cui Qingrou, who was smiling slightly and filled with happiness, Mo Yan seemed to be infected and smiled unconsciously: "It's from my own family. If my grandmother and cousin-in-law like it, I can give as much as possible in the future." go."

Yeah! Cui Qingrou agreed with a smile.

The next day, Mo Qingze and Cui Qingrou arrived at Cui's house with a car full of home gifts, and were eagerly welcomed in by Mr. Cui's eldest son.

Mr. Cui and his concubines left. Mr. Cui went to court, and Mr. Cui did not take care of the affairs. So Mr. Cui's eldest son, his older brother and cousin entertained Mo Qingze, the newly minted uncle.

Cui Qingrou personally took two jars of honey, and surrounded by her nephews, she and Mo Qingze went to Mrs. Cui's yard. After receiving the news, Mrs. Cui and the female family members of the mansion were already waiting in the house.

After the couple knelt down to Mrs. Cui and exchanged greetings with others, Mo Qingze was invited to the outer courtyard by a group of nephews, and Cui Qingrou was pulled to the front by Mrs. Cui.

Mrs. Cui looked at her daughter carefully. Seeing that her face was rosy and her eyebrows were much wider, she knew that she had been very comfortable at Mo's house these two days. She patted the back of her hand happily and said, "This is a marriage." Theres no wrong knot.

When Cui Qingrou heard this, a smile appeared on her lips unconsciously: "My husband treats my daughter very well, and my children are also very good. He is very close to my daughter! If your eldest granddaughter hadn't reminded her yesterday, my daughter would have almost forgotten about returning home.

Hearing that her daughter was showing favor to her on behalf of her "eldest granddaughter", Mrs. Cui smiled and said nothing, but her eyes fell vaguely on the two girls Luzhi and Lumei behind her daughter.

Going home today, the four eldest girls Cui Qingrou was marrying only brought two, Lvzhi and Lvmei, while the other two, Hongying and Hongxiu, were left at home to take care of the housework.

Green branches and green plums both have eyes, and they instantly understood the meaning of Mrs. Cuis eyes. The two looked at each other, and Luzhi quickly stood up and said: "Old madam, my uncle treated the girl well. He took the girl around in person for the past two days, otherwise the girl would not have almost forgotten to come back. How many girls My brother and I have all changed our names to call the girl 'Mother', these home-coming gifts are all prepared by the eldest girl, and I have specially prepared some good things for you!"

As she spoke, she pointed to the two jars of honey placed on the tea table: "This is the honey specially prepared by the eldest lady for the old lady and Grandma Qi. Let you and Grandma Qi drink a spoonful of it in the morning and evening. It can benefit the spleen and stomach and calm the mind. , The eldest girl has taken the old lady into her heart."

Hearing this, Mrs. Cuis eyes fell on the two white porcelain altars. When Cui Qingrou came in, she saw the two white porcelain jars and thought it was the food her daughter bought for her on the street. Unexpectedly, it was specially prepared by her eldest granddaughter.

Two jars of honey are nothing, but the rare thing is the intention. After the seventh grandson's daughter-in-law became pregnant, her appetite has not been very good and her body is even thinner than before pregnancy. She is getting older, sleeps less at night, and her appetite is getting worse. I didn't expect that this eldest granddaughter would keep it in mind and specially prepared these two meals. Altar of honey.

Seeing the faint pride on her daughter's face, Mrs. Cui smiled slowly, finally believing that her daughter had found the happiness that belongs to a woman, "They are all good children with pure hearts. In the future, they will be your support, so treat them well." , they will keep it in mind.

Cui Qingrou stopped her smile and nodded gently: "They are my daughter's children."

Since it is your own child, how can you not love her?

As soon as Mo Qingze and Cui Qingrou left, Mo Yan took another carriage to the city and went straight to a famous tooth shop in Dongshi.

This dental shop specializes in human trafficking. The reason why it is famous is that the boss of the dental shop is particularly good at training the new people he buys. Many wealthy families will buy them directly from here when they are in urgent need of people. Of course, the price is much higher than other dental shops.

The reason why Mo Yan knew about this tooth shop was because he found out about it from Mrs. Han.

Seeing that a customer came to the door, the shopkeeper of Yahang enthusiastically ushered Mo Yan in and served him tea and water.

When he learned that Mo Yan wanted two maids, four little maids and a few rough ladies, the shopkeeper immediately smiled and narrowed his eyes, and flattered him cheerfully: "It's better to come early than to come by chance. I just came today." There is a batch of well-trained ones that have not been selected by other customers, so the girls are really lucky."

Mo Yan didn't know that this was a routine for doing business. He nodded and stood up and said, "Then go ahead and choose. It doesn't matter if you can't choose the right one. The family is not in a hurry to use it."

When the shopkeeper heard this, he smiled even more heartily. If you are not in a hurry but you are willing to pay a high price to buy here, either you have a lot of money, or you trust this dental shop, whichever is a good thing.

Girl, this way please, please be careful of the threshold!

Mo Yan was taken to the backyard by the shopkeeper attentively, and saw that the spacious courtyard was already filled with rows of people waiting to be selected.

There were no less than a hundred people, including old men in their fifties and sixties, children of five and six, girls of thirteen and fourteen, and women in their twenties and thirties. Generally speaking, women are the majority.

Looking at the gray-haired old people standing at the front, Mo Yan felt quite uncomfortable. He was originally at an age where he was able to enjoy his life with his children and grandchildren at his knees, but due to various unfortunate reasons, he was reduced to the miserable state he is in now.

Seeing Mo Yan's eyes on a few old people who couldn't be sold, the shopkeeper's eyes lit up, and he quickly stepped forward, pointed at one of the old people and recommended it highly: "He used to be the housekeeper of a wealthy family, and he is very good at housekeeping. If the girl's family is short of something, he is just the right one to buy."

The old man is already over sixty, and his body looks pretty good, but he is too old and may fall down at any time, otherwise he would not have stayed in the tooth shop for more than a year and no one would care about him.

I bought it for a cheap price at the beginning. I bought it for three hundred cents. If I meet a customer who is willing to buy it, it will not be a problem to double it a hundred times. If no one buys it in the end, we can only accept it as bad luck, kick people out and let them beg. After all, the dental shop is in business, and it is impossible for these elderly people to provide for them until they die.

The old man who was highly recommended by the shopkeeper had a faint light in his dim eyes. He raised his head slightly and looked at Mo Yan, with a thick look of humiliation on his face, which made the person who saw it feel sour.

However, there was no change on Mo Yan's face. His eyes fell on the old man next to him. Sure enough, he heard the shopkeeper praise hard again: "Girl, don't look at his age, but he is very strong. He can carry a hundred kilograms of stuff." Its not a problem. When I was young, I could carry two hundred pounds. It turned out that I was working on the dock!

If something had not happened in the family, and the old wife, son, and grandson all died, leaving only one great-grandson who was seriously ill, otherwise he would not have sold himself at his age to get money to treat his great-grandson. Although the great-grandson was rescued by a tael of money from selling his body, the little boy who was only a few years old could not take care of himself. No, the great-grandson had no choice but to sell himself, and the grandfather and grandson depended on each other in the dental shop.

Mo Yan's eyes fell on the child who was close to the old man. He was only four or five years old, but his eyes already contained sadness and helplessness that was not that of a child.

Seeing that Mo Yan still didn't speak, the shopkeeper had given up all hope, but he still recommended the remaining old people and talked about their respective strengths and advantages before turning the conversation to the fourteenth man who agreed with Mo Yan's request. The eldest maid who is five years old, the little maid who is eight or nine years old, and the rough mother-in-law who can endure hardships and stand hard work.

Mo Yan cheered up and listened to the shopkeeper Xu Xu's introduction while carefully observing these qualified people. Half an hour later, she finally picked out a suitable candidate, pointed to the two eldest maids, the four little maids and the four rough ladies and said, "It's just them."

The shopkeeper was overjoyed and flattered her smoothly: "The girl has such good taste. They are all the best in this batch. You can pick them all today."

Mo Yan smiled and did not answer.

The shopkeeper smiled coquettishly and quickly asked the clerk to get the deeds of sale of these maids and women. Taking advantage of this opportunity, he reported the worth of these ten people to Mo Yan: "The girl must know that the prices in my dental shop are higher than others. Since it is her first time to visit, I will give the girl a low price, maid. Forty taels each, the little maid thirty-five taels each, the rough lady 20 taels each, these ten people add up to exactly three hundred taels."

After saying that, the shopkeeper carefully observed Mo Yan's face and saw that her eyelids didn't even move. He couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that this was a rich man who had no shortage of money.

Mo Yan is indeed not short of money, but that doesnt mean she is willing to be taken advantage of. Even if the price of the best thing exceeds its value, she will not buy it.

"The shopkeeper is so dishonest. Why did I hear that the eldest maid here is sold to regular customers for thirty-five taels, the little maid is thirty-five taels, and the rough lady is fifteen taels?" Mo Yan looked at her with a half-smile but not a smile. The shopkeeper exposed his lies with one word. Since she could find this place, how could she not ask for a good price?

The shopkeeper didn't expect that Mo Yan even knew their internal prices. It was obviously introduced by those old customers. He couldn't help but apologize and said with a smile: "The girl also said that she only got this price when she sold to old customers. From now on, the shopkeeper If you come to buy from me again, I will definitely give you this price."

Mo Yan pondered for a moment, then said to the nervous shopkeeper: "Well, I won't bargain with you anymore, but you have to give them to me as extras." As she said that, she pointed at the first person. The five old people and the child recommended by the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper looked at Mo Yan's finger, the corners of his lips twitched for a moment, and he said helplessly: "Girl, no matter how worthless they are, they cost at least thirty taels of silver each. If I give them to you as extras, you will be at a loss. "

Upon hearing this, Mo Yan turned around and left: "If the shopkeeper doesn't want to, forget it. Just wait for other customers to give you thirty taels of silver to buy them!"

The shopkeeper didn't expect Mo Yan to act irrationally and leave immediately. He subconsciously rushed to stop him: "Girl, the price is easy to negotiate. If you go to another house, you can't choose such a useful slave!"

Mo Yan stopped and looked at the nervous shopkeeper and said: "Including these five old people and one child, I will only give you three hundred taels of silver. If the shopkeeper can sell it, he will sell it. If he can't, forget it. Let's talk about the transaction. Are you in love with me?"

Knowing that there was no possibility of increasing the price, the shopkeeper hesitated for a moment, and finally decided with gritted teeth: "Three hundred taels is three hundred taels. If you want to buy another customer in the future, you must come to our dental shop."

"It's easy to talk about it. If I come back to buy it next time, the shopkeeper will give me a real price." Mo Yan was also happy and immediately took out three hundred taels of silver notes and handed it to the shopkeeper.

"Definitely!" The shopkeeper took the banknote, looked at it carefully, and confirmed that it was a real banknote, and put it into his arms with a smile on his face.

Although I am a little unwilling to make money from these people, it is not bad to be able to get rid of these "old troublemakers" at once. If these people can't sell it, they will be driven away. Now that someone is willing to take it, it is regarded as a sign of merit. It is a pity that the little boy is a pity. If he keeps it for another two years, he will definitely be able to sell it at a good price.

After receiving the deeds of sale of these sixteen people from the shopkeeper, and going to the Yamen to process the relevant documents, Mo Yan hired a carriage to return to Yahang and brought these people home.

The maid and mother-in-law who were bought first were okay. They were sure that they would be bought, so they got on the carriage very calmly. They just watched the carriage leave the bustling capital. The road became more and more desolate, and they gradually became helpless. end.

The five old people and children who were regarded as "add-ons" experienced the initial excitement and disbelief. They watched the changes in the scenery along the way without any ups and downs in their moods.

At their age, it would be good to have someone to buy and feed the stutter. If it were not for the desire to live, the rope would have been tied with a few heavy blows. No matter how bad things get, they can't get much worse now, and they accept their unknown fate calmly.

When the carriage stopped, they got out of the carriage with new hope. When they looked at the vast house in front of them, their hearts were shaken: Could their new master be a big country squire or a rich man?

"Come in with me." Mo Yan paid the driver, looked at the sixteen people who were stunned, and stepped forward to open the courtyard door.

Those people came back to their senses, looked at each other, and followed them in unison. No matter what the new master's status is, if he can afford to live in such a magnificent house and buy so many of their servants in one go, he obviously has no shortage of money.

As long as they work hard, they don't have to worry about being sold again. If the new owner is kind, their life in the future won't be too difficult.
