Chapter 312: Upbringing Aunt
Shen Xia raised her eyebrows: "What do you mean?"
The shopkeeper smiled and said, "I have a foster nanny here. She was punished by the master and is now injured. It's not serious, but it's not light either. She needs to recuperate for a while. She can still be used after she recovers."
"This is the punishment from the master. What good can come of it?" Shen Xia asked.
"Madam, judging from your accent, you don't seem to be from the capital. I'm afraid you don't know much about the capital. The aristocratic families are all twists and turns, and you won't necessarily be punished and sold if you do something wrong."
Shen Xia also understood the shopkeeper's subtext.
Look at Song Yun.
Song Yun nodded: "Take a look."
"Okay." Then he continued to ask, "How big does the little maid need to be?"
"The one who is diligent and doesn't talk too much is fine,"
"Okay! Xiao Liu, go pick some out for Madam to choose from, and also bring out that nanny." The person next to the shopkeeper ordered.
The shopkeeper thought that he should sell this maid as soon as possible. Although he didn't ask for money, he still needed food to keep her every day!
If you die, it will be a waste of time.
The servant went there immediately after hearing the order.
The shopkeeper chatted with Shen Xia and the others here.
They were all asking each other about the situation.
Not long after, two servants were seen carrying a woman out. The woman looked to be around 40 years old.
Her hair was a little messy and her face was dirty, and her original skin color could no longer be seen, but her eyes were bright and clear, as if one could see into the world deep in her heart through these eyes.
As the saying goes: eyes are the windows to the soul. A person's appearance and behavior will more or less reflect her character and personality.
Therefore, by observing the look in this woman's eyes, we can infer that she is probably not a bad person.
She was seen lying on the wooden board.
Shen Xia looked at her, and she was also looking at Shen Xia.
"My family is just a small one, maybe not as big as your previous master's. Are you willing to go to my place?" The servants of such a big family are also proud.
Although Shen Xia wanted a nanny, she hoped that the other party really wanted to follow her.
Otherwise, my temple is too small to afford a big Buddha.
Mammy looked at the lady in front of her and actually asked for her opinion first. She could tell that she was a good lady. She said in a heavy voice, "Madam, you are joking. I am already like this. The past and the future are all in the past. If you respect me, I will be yours for the rest of my life."
Shen Xia smiled: "Okay."
Shen Xia looked at the shopkeeper and asked, "How much is this Madam?"
The shopkeeper smiled and said, "How many maids does Madam want?"
"What does this mean?"
"If the lady's maid asks for a lot, this nanny will give her three taels of silver. If she asks for less, she will give her five taels of silver." The shopkeeper expressed his thoughts.
Shen Xia looked at the shopkeeper, who seemed to be a man who knew how to do things.
Then he looked at Song Yun and said, "Two maids are enough for me. Do you want a maid for me, Fourth Brother?"
When the maidservant next to her heard this, she thought that they were going to buy a maid for this young master.
Looking at Song Yun's handsome appearance, everyone was eager to give it a try.
Song Yun shook his head: "No, I have a servant there that is enough."
"Oh, all right then!" Then he looked at the shopkeeper and said, "Just two little maids and this nanny."
"Yes, that's fine. The two maids will be five taels each, and the maid will be four taels! Give Madam a discount. If Madam needs someone in the future, come to us to choose."
"Okay! Thank you, shopkeeper."
"Okay, then Madam, take a look at this row of maids and see if there is any you like."
Shen Xia looked at the row of maids.
There are about ten of them.
Shen Xia looked from left to right.
Everyone's eyes were fixed on Song Yun.
I can't tell the difference between the big and small kings.
In the end, Shen Xia picked the two youngest ones.
Twelve and thirteen years old.
Children of this age can be taught properly.
The older ones are stereotyped.
Moreover, in the courtyard, Song Yun has not yet married.
Not suitable for people with twists and turns.
If Song Yun needs it, Shen Xia will of course let him choose, but if he doesn't need it, he shouldn't worry about it, as he will be criticized later.
Look at the other girls. If you buy them, all their thoughts will be on Song Yun.
Then you can't do any work.
Han Shuang looked at these girls and found some of them were pretty. She was worried that if her sister-in-law chose one of them, she would be the first to get the upper hand.
With knowledge like Brother Yun, he will become an official sooner or later, so it is normal for him to have a concubine in advance, just like his own brother, who also has a concubine.
My mother arranged it.
I feel that my elder brother is studying hard and there is someone who understands him.
Because I wanted my brother to get good grades in school and marry a sister-in-law with a better family background.
So instead of getting married early, they arranged for a concubine to stay with them.
But Brother Yun has never had a concubine, and the servants he serves are only men.
Who wouldn’t like such a self-disciplined person!
At this time, a little girl standing in the middle looked at herself and failed, and kept looking at Song Yun, hoping that her gaze could attract his attention.
This person is the most iconic among this group of people.
The woman thought that she had sold herself into slavery because of her poor family conditions, and she hoped that one day she would be bought by a wealthy family.
Even if you can be a maid or a concubine, it is much better than being a slave!
Although this young man is not from a wealthy family, he is so handsome.
Who doesn’t like it after seeing it!
I just hope the lady in front of me can choose me.
As a result, this lady actually chose two little girls who were still wet behind the ears.
Too angry, he looked at Shen Xia and said, "Madam, these two girls are too young and can't do the work. Why don't you choose me? I can do a lot of work."
The two maids who had been chosen were nervous. Although the lady was not from a wealthy family, they could tell at a glance that she was a good person.
It is better to be bought by such a small family than a big family. There are many disputes in a big family and it is uncertain how long you can live.
Shen Xia looked at Song Yun with a joking look in his eyes: "Fourth brother, I think this little girl is pretty, how about adding one more."
Upon hearing this, Song Yun frowned slightly, raised his eyes slightly and looked at the woman.
The woman seemed to feel his gaze and looked at Song Yun with deep affection in her eyes, as if expecting his response.
Her eyes revealed a kind of weakness and helplessness that made people feel pity for her.
However, this pitiful attitude did not touch Song Yun's heart.
To be honest, even Shen Xia, who was standing by, couldn't help but feel a little soft-hearted when he saw the woman in such a state.
But Song Yun is not an ordinary person, he will not be easily fooled by appearance.
He looked at the woman coldly and said in a cold but firm tone: "If you stare at me again, I will dig out your eyes."
Everyone was shocked when they heard this.
