A house full of cannon fodder reads my mind. Who knows? I’m going crazy.

When Tao Yuanyuan and Brother Shen left the capital, Yan Bao was still a little reluctant to leave and looked at Shen Shoufu eagerly.

Shen Shoufu pretended to be blind, so he would not let Yan Bao go to Taining Island with him.

I have only been back for a few months, and I already want to run away.

Whose good girl is away from home every day?

No, absolutely not!

Shen Shoufu was unable to make progress, so Yan Bao had no choice but to give up.

She took Tao Yuanyuan's hand and said: "I can't go to Taining Island with you. If you go to Taining Island and you are too busy, you can go to my orphanage and select a few people."

Yan Bao couldn't use so many people by himself, so he thought of finding a way out for them.

It just so happened that Tao Yuanyuan didn't have many available people around her. They would not suffer any loss by following Tao Yuanyuan. Tao Yuanyuan also had her own people.

Tao Yuanyuan and Yan Bao hit it off right away, so they hitched up the carriage and went to Yan Bao's orphanage. Over the past few years, her village has looked like a school, and it occupies a large area!

On the outskirts of Beijing, land is cheap and the terrain is wide, so Yanbao can build whatever he wants.

There are more women in this orphanage than men.

Those who came in the first batch were a little younger than Yan Bao, and they should have grown up this year.

They don't need to take the imperial examination and have already learned how to read and write. Now they are all busy with their own things. Yan Bao has asked people to teach them many skills. Now that they can use them, they are all capable.

As soon as Yan Bao arrived, they all greeted him eagerly.

The eldest one is called Haiyan, which is the name she gave herself: "Meet the Princess."

Yan Bao nodded: "This is my princess's second sister-in-law, General Ping Kou's wife."

Haiyan led the people to salute Tao Yuanyuan and waited for the princess to speak. She knew that the princess was very busy and rarely came over. Basically, she came here because she had something to arrange.

For example, every time I came here, I would bring something new to them.

They can use useful aunt towels, which are given by the princess.

The grandma who took care of her said that they never dared to think about this thing before. They used plant ash to make their own menstrual belts. How could they use such a luxurious thing? It was like a dream.

Only then did Haiyan realize how valuable that aunt's scarf was.

It is said that the noble ladies in the capital cannot use it. It is used by the princess herself, but it is used by lowly people like them. ,

That's right, Haiyan knew that if the princess hadn't taken them in, they would have been slaves and maids, with no way to survive. It was the princess who took them in and fed them three meals a day, two meat dishes, one vegetable and one soup. .

There are clothes for all seasons.

There is no need to suffer from frostbite in winter, and the girls in nearby villages are envious of it.

There are also many unwanted daughters who are secretly stuffed at the entrance of the orphanage and asked to be raised by Zhuangzi for free.

After Yan Bao found out, he sent someone to check. If no one claimed him, he would keep him in an orphanage. If there was no mother's milk, he would drink goat's milk. There were many small animals in the village, including chickens, ducks, fish, pigs, cows and sheep.

Goat milk is great for babies.

If it doesn't work out, I'll pay for a wet nurse.

Yan Bao basically delegates power to these matters and sets a standard for the dean to be responsible for. She will check regularly and send people to keep an eye on the dean to prevent him from abusing the children and doing something shameful.

After Yan Bao took care of it before, the dean later took warning and did not dare to act recklessly.

Yan Bao explained the purpose of his visit: "I came today to select twenty people to follow the general's wife to Taining Island. From now on, you will be her people and work for her. You will have good benefits and benefits. You will still be free and you will not have to be slaves or maids. Just hire you.”

Haiyan was a little moved when she heard this.

Others look at me and I look at you. There is confusion, surprise, excitement, and expectation in their eyes.

Yan Bao saw their expressions in his eyes and knew that they all felt that they had grown up. They didn't want to eat and drink for free in the orphanage and wanted to find something to do. But she never let go because she felt that they were young.

Also, Yan Bao's career ambition is not strong, and he has not developed his career well during this period, so there is no need for them at all.

Now that Tao Yuanyuan is going to open a factory or store, she will definitely need people.

Opportunities for employment have come to them.

Yan Bao said: "The people selected this time are between thirteen and fifteen years old. Those who are qualified can choose to go to Taining Island. Only twenty people will be selected, and the rest will stay in the orphanage. We will arrange it when you grow up. "

The girls and boys under the age of thirteen who had been removed looked disappointed.

The shortlisted people clenched their fists secretly and looked at Yan Bao excitedly and expectantly.

Yan Bao glanced at the expectant people: "Those who want to go to Taining Island raise their hands."

Boom, dozens of hands were raised, their eyes were bright, and their faces were red with excitement.

Haiyan also raised her hand. She looked at Yan Bao eagerly, hoping that she could be selected.

Yan Bao saw Haiyan's thoughts and continued: "This year, those with hair extensions will take a step forward."

Haiyan and several others with haircuts stepped forward, and Yan Bao counted them. There were only nine people in total.

Twenty is not enough.

For the rest, Yan Bao asked Tao Yuanyuan to choose: "These are all those with haircut hair this year. You can take them away with confidence. You can choose the other eleven. After all, you are the one who picked them. I almost finished them all."

Tao Yuanyuan laughed: "You can choose."

Yan Bao waved his hand: "It's better for you to choose, I'm afraid you won't choose well."

Tao Yuanyuan can only choose by herself.

The older ones had all been picked out. She thought it would be fine to keep a few of the younger ones, so she said, "Next year, those with haircuts will come forward."

There will also be quite a few people who will get haircut next year, seven in total, and there are still four to go.

Tao Yuanyuan can only choose from those who are thirteen years old. Their selection criteria is to select from the older ones and train the younger ones.

"Are there any of the remaining hairdressers who were born in January or February?"

Soon, five people stood up, all of whom were born in January or February. Although they were only thirteen, they already felt that they had grown up.

One more person meant that someone wanted to stay, and all five of them were a little nervous.

Tao Yuanyuan saw her and asked with a smile: "Are you willing to go to Taining Island with me?"

"Young ladies are willing." The five of them said in unison.

Tao Yuanyuan smiled with satisfaction: "Okay, it doesn't matter if there is one more. It's all fate, so just follow me to Taining Island!"

The five youngest ones beamed with joy: "Thank you, Madam General!"

Others look at the chosen one with envy.

Yan Bao reassured: "Don't worry, you will also have the opportunity to leave in the future. Before that, you must complete the things assigned by the hospital. When you learn well, there will be many opportunities."

"That's what the princess said." Everyone said in unison.

Yan Bao smiled with satisfaction and listened to Tao Yuanyuan explain the twenty-one people selected. Except for the sixteen girls, the other five were teenagers, tall and thin.

Tao Yuanyuan asked them to rest for two days. After buying train tickets, they would go to the train station together and someone would pick them up.

Haiyan and the others were secretly excited when they heard that they were taking a train.

They have only heard of trains but have never ridden one.

They are all looking forward to getting on the train now.

Yan Bao chatted with the director for a while, walked around the orphanage, checked it out, and determined that there was no problem with the management. She looked at the time and left the orphanage with Tao Yuanyuan.

The two of them did not go back to the house immediately, but went to a restaurant to have a meal. The two of them went to the store for a while, inspecting the business situation of the store, and met many acquaintances.

They knew that Yan Bao was in the store and came to say hello. Yan Bao responded with a smile. Everyone was in the same circle. As long as they didn't cause trouble, Yan Bao was basically easy to get along with.

Many of them rushed to get close to Yan Bao. Yan Bao had long been accustomed to fawning over them. He would talk to them if he wanted to. If he didn't want to, no one could get close to him.

Yan Bao has the capital to be proud.

Who knows that she is a girl from the Shen family, the emperor's favorite princess, the future crown princess, and if nothing unexpected happens, she will be the next queen. If they don't flatter her now, they will have no chance in the future.

Yan Bao is not that easy to please!

All the women in the capital know that Princess Taining is very proud!
