Chapter forty-six seven maids
Chen Danxia looked at the man who counted the silver to sell the children, asked someone to take off the grass sign, led them into the restaurant, and then sat back to his original position. After a while, congratulations to Shen Bomi for coming in.
Congratulations to the Tao, saying, "Madam, everyone has bought it, three large six taels of silver, four small three taels of silver, and three taels of silver. I asked the shopkeeper to invite someone to sign the contract."
Chen Danxia was shocked. Is it only necessary to buy someone with such a little money? This is too cheap, it is simply a bargain.
Congratulations and said, "Madam, their father is outside the door and wants to kowtow to the wife and thank you."
"No need, beat him away." Tao frowned in disgust. No matter what the reason, this man is not worthy of being a father. If she did not buy his daughter this time, he would definitely sell his daughter to a brothel in the end.
Congratulations on answering, and turned around and went out.
"My sister goes to clean her hands, your brother and sister are waiting for you." Tao said with a smile.
Shen Baimi smiled, cleaned her hands, and sat down next to Shen Baiyu, "Mother is having dinner, third brother is having dinner, and sister is having dinner."
"Oh, you can start eating. I want to eat fish eyes, I want to eat fish eyes." Shen Baiyu quickly picked up the chopsticks.
"Brother Third, why are you anxious? No one is snatching you from." Chen Danxia really didn't understand what the hard fish eyes were delicious.
Shen Baiyu quickly stuffed the fish eyes dug into his mouth and said, "It's delicious, it's so delicious."
Shen Bomi and his sister slapped their lips at the same time, really not wanting to admit that they were brothers (brothers and sisters). He was so greedy, as if he hadn't eaten anything for 800 years. He obviously ate steamed fish last night.
Halfway through the meal, congratulations on coming back and reporting that the matter was done. The seven people sold their bodies. Tao picked it up and looked through it, and smiled and said, "Jiuer, they are you who want to buy them, and they are yours. The body sold for you, you must keep them well."
"Oh." Chen Danxia took it, but she was less than five years old, so did she hand over these things to her? Then she thought that she had already transported them back to Jindu one step earlier and asked her uncle to find another place to collect the precious treasures, and suddenly felt that there was nothing wrong with these seven body sales contracts in her hands.
After dinner, Chen Danxia walked to Shen Bomi and said timidly: "Second brother, Jiuer knows that he is wrong, and he won't know that he will not do it in the future."
Shen Bomi was stunned, "What did my sister do wrong?"
Chen Danxia lowered his head and pondered for a moment, and said, "I almost got into trouble when I was scrambling to buy someone with that mother."
Shen Bomi smiled slightly and said, "Sister, it is right to do good deeds, but you can't be too impulsive, otherwise good deeds will turn into disasters. Do good deeds and do your best."
"Jiu'er understands." Chen Danxia nodded when he was taught.
The family had almost rested, so they got up and left. Behind them, the door of the next wing opened, and a boy of seventeen or eighteen and a girl of one year old and one of two years old came out of it.
"This little girl is so interesting." The young man shook the folding fan in his hand, narrowed his eyes and looked at Chen Danxia, who was leaving with his mother and brother.
The follower behind him had his eyelids twitched, and the master said it twice in a row and it was interesting. They knew exactly what that meant.
"Fourth Brother, are we going back to the post station?" the girl asked.
"What else do you want to go?" the young man asked sideways.
The girl shook her head and said, "There is nothing fun in this little place."
When they returned to the inn, the brother and sister returned to their rooms. A man dressed as a maid brought in a pot of tea. The boy sat at the table, took the pot and poured a cup of tea, and savored it slowly.
After a while, a knock came from the door. The boy put down his teacup and said, "Come in."
One of the followers pushed the door and saluted the young man, saying, "Master, they are the wife and children of Chen Muke, the co-minister of Tanzhou Prefecture."
"Chen Muke? This name sounds a bit familiar." The young man couldn't remember when he had heard it.
"He is the third son of the former Grand Tutor Chen Jue, the former Right Shi Zhilang of the Zhanshi Mansion." One of the followers reminded him.
The boy nodded slightly, indicating that he knew who it was.
One of the followers continued: "Mrs. Chen is the younger sister of Renyi Bo. She has two sons and one daughter. The eldest son Shen Bomi and the second son Shen Boyu are twins. She is twelve years old this year. The legitimate daughter Chen Danxia was born on the same day as the eldest prince. She is five years old this year and is ranked ninth at home. They live in Fulai Inn on the street in front, and this time they are back to Beijing."
"Return to Beijing? What happened to the Shen family?" the young man asked.
One of the followers hesitated for a moment and said, "Master, the highest official rank in the Shen family is Chen Muke now." The implication is that since Chen Jue's death, the Shen family is no longer worthy of attention, and I don't know what happened to the Shen family.
The young master knocked on the table, "Don't ignore officials with low levels. They are either first-rank officials once they enter the officialdom." If he remembered correctly, Chen Jue was a seventh-rank official in the officialdom. He took ten years to climb to the fourth-rank official, and then soared to become the Grand Tutor. After his death, he received the posthumous title of Xiang Guang. Although he is dead now, the people of the Shen family are still there. As the saying goes: a centipede worm will die without being stiff. Moreover, Chen Muke is the first right-rank official in the Zhanshifu, and may not have no privacy in his hands.
"I understand, I will arrange for someone to stare at me." One of the followers bowed.
Chen Danxia didn't know that her misinterpretation of poetry would arouse others' interest in her. At this time, she was meeting the seven girls she had just bought. They had washed up and put on clean clothes. Tao also asked Dr. Hao to diagnose their pulse and make sure they were not sick. He asked Congratulations to bring them over and see Chen Danxia.
"What are your names? How old are you?" Chen Danxia asked in a chair with a fat face, pretending to be serious.
Mrs. Qi had someone briefly taught seven people rules, and the seven people knelt down and said one by one: "I'm surnamed Wei, named Da Ya, thirteen years old." "I'm named Er Ya, twelve years old." "I'm named San Ya, twelve years old." "I'm named Si Ya, twelve years old." "I'm named Wu Ya, 7 years old." "I'm named Liu Ya, 7 years old." "I'm named Qi Ya, 5 years old."
"Are you sisters?" Chen Danxia asked.
"When it comes to the girl, Erya and Wuya are the daughters of my second uncle, and Liuya are the daughters of my third uncle." Daya reported.
"What happened to your family?" Chen Danxia continued to ask. If all the daughters of the three families were sold, something must have happened.
Da Ya sniffed and said, "New Years ago, my grandfather..."
"Cough cough." Mrs. Fu coughed heavily, reminding her that it was wrong to reply like this.
Da Ya was stunned and didn't know how to answer. San Ya was smarter and hurriedly continued: "When I say to the girl, my grandfather and second uncle fell from the mountain a few years ago and broke his leg. In order to treat my grandfather and second uncle, I borrowed a large sum of silver."
Chen Danxia understood that selling them was to pay off their debts.
The seven people had not learned the rules well and would not come to serve Chen Danxia for the time being. After kowtowed to Chen Danxia, they were taken down by congratulations. Mrs. Lu also went out and she would teach the seven people the rules.
"Sister Hujiao, I want to draw red." Before Chen Danxia went out, Mr. Cheng assigned her homework and had to draw five pages of copybooks every day.
"Yes, girl." Hu Jiao smiled and opened the stationery carrying box containing pen, ink, paper and ink, took out the things inside, and arranged them one by one on the table.
The Fu Poetry helped Chen Danxia wear soft embroidered shoes and carried her over to sit down. Chen Danxia asked Hu Jiao to tie up hanging jade on her wrist, lifted her pen to dip ink, and wrote carefully.

My body has not fully recovered, but now my mom allows me to spend an hour a day on my computer, so I resumed and updated it.
