Poisonous Peasant 'Concubine'

Early the next morning, when sending the children to school, Ling Jingxuan asked Song Yang to fill two jars of spicy jerky and five-spice jerky for Chuci and his son in small jars of jam. Hungry, I wrapped a little bit for each of them in oiled paper bags and put them in schoolbags, so that they could take them out to eat when they were hungry.

After sending them off, the busy day started again. Last night because of the children fighting, they stopped making jam after dinner. There were still a lot of wild fruits in the warehouse waiting to be cleaned and boiled. Under Yan Shengrui's insistence Ling Jingxuan resolutely had to stay at home to make jam, while the others all went up the mountain. The only one who was free was Ling Jinghan who was studying in the gazebo.

"Master Xuan, Liu Baoren said that he might not be able to bring people over until noon."

The factory building for making jam occupies a very large area. The CCP is divided into two parts. On the one side, many reservoirs are built for washing fruits, and on the other side, a whole row of large stoves is built. Each stove is equipped with a large The pot, when the restaurant is rushing to rush the goods, Ling Jingxuan usually cooks three pots together, and it is the same today. When Lao Song came in to report, he just nodded casually among the three pots to show his understanding. There was no reply, and Song Gengniu didn't care. He turned around and went out to go to the mountain. As long as the family started working, he would go to the mountain to help after sending off the children.

At noon, the family got together for lunch. Since the family's financial situation improved, Ling Jingxuan completely ignored the rule of two meals a day and changed to three meals a day. At first, Ling Chenglong and his wife thought it was a bit extravagant and cryptic. I told him twice, but every time I turned around and listened to him explain the truth. Gradually, they gradually got used to three meals a day, even Zhao Han and his wife got used to it. I also make lunch at home.

Another change is to take a nap. Not only Ling Chenglong and the others, but also the old Song family. Ling Jingxuan also asked them to take a nap. The reason is of course that it is good for the body. Anyway, he is a doctor. Who would dare not believe what he said?

"Master Xuan, Liu Baoren has brought someone here."

Thanks to the three wolves, father and son, there was a lot of oil and water on their table in the past two days. The six dishes and one soup were all meat dishes. When Lao Song came in to report, Ling Jingxuan had just put down the bowl and chopsticks: "Bring them in."

Seeing that the family members had almost finished eating, Ling Jingxuan was going to ask them to help choose candidates.

After Lao Song retreated, Song Yangshi and Song Shuiling swiftly removed the leftovers from the table, Ling Jinghan glanced at his elder brother: "How many people are you buying this time?"

"I don't know, let's take a look first, let's talk about it, more or less, the main thing is quality, and you will learn to choose two later, when our business grows in the future, there will be more people who want to buy, learn It doesn't hurt how you look at people."

Shrugging his shoulders, Ling Jingxuan, who was leaning on the chair, narrowed his eyes slightly, with a decadent look full of warmth and lust, and Yan Shengrui next to him was not much better. He was tired all morning, and he was used to taking a nap. Moved.

"We also want it? Jingxuan, mother doesn't know how, why don't you pick two at random?"

When she heard that they had to learn how to select candidates, Ling Wang waved her hands again and again. She had heard from Song Yang that some slaves wandered around Ren Yazi's place, and they had already become reckless. If they bought bad ones Slaves are often more airy than their masters, and they were born in ordinary farmers. How can they be the opponents of those slaves?

"Is there anything wrong with buying people? As long as we have money."

Seeing her terrified look, Ling Jingxuan couldn't help laughing, and Ling Wang hurriedly said: "What if you buy someone who is not good?"

Life at home was finally getting better, and she didn't want to spend money to make trouble for herself.

"Mother, don't worry, their contract of sale is in our hands. According to Daqing's law, slaves who signed a death contract are not responsible even if they are beaten to death by the master. It's good to sell."

In this regard, Yan Chengrui seems to be very familiar with him. Even Ling Jingxuan couldn't help but glance at him, with an interesting smile on the corner of his mouth. If it wasn't for sure that he lost his memory, he would really wonder if he was lying to them. It seems that as long as it is him The things he has come into contact with basically come out of his mouth, not at all like a person who has lost his memory.

"But.

Ling Wangshi was still a little embarrassed, but she couldn't tell them. She looked at her husband for help, but Ling Chenglong's reaction was not much better than his. The couple could only stare at each other helplessly. .

"Brother Ling, long time no see. This house is really nice, spacious and bright. I want to build one just like my brother."

Not long after, under the leadership of Lao Song, Liu Baoren walked in with a group of thirty or forty people. The originally spacious main room felt a little crowded in an instant. Those people included men and women, old and young, and one of them was at least They are in their fifties, and there are a few skinny children. I can't tell their exact age, but they are no more than ten years old at most. Some of them are restless, and their eyes keep wandering after entering Look, especially the pretty girls, when they saw Yan Shengrui, some of their eyes were about to stick to him. Ling Jingxuan raised his eyebrows and looked at Yan Shengrui, who shrugged at him, indicating that he didn't intend to seduce him. Whoever they want to stick to has nothing to do with him.

"Hehe... yes, it's been a long time. I haven't thanked Liu Baoren about the workers. Another day, when I'm done with work, I'm going to have a dinner with their relatives and friends at home. Liu Baoren must come then."

After understanding his eyes, Ling Jingxuan raised the corners of his lips in a smile, and when he faced Liu Baoren, there was already a social smile on his face.

"Then I won't be polite. I wonder how many people Brother Ling plans to buy this time? Do you have any special requirements?"

After the formalities were over, Liu Baoren quickly got into the subject, he was also busy recently, and he really didn't have time to procrastinate.

"No, these are all the people in your hands?"

Turning his attention to those people, many people who have worked in wealthy families have naked contempt in their eyes. They obviously look down on them. They pretend to be rich, but they seem to have forgotten that no matter whether Ling Jingxuan is an upstart or not, at least they have the money to buy them, instead of being reduced to being bought and sold, or even worse than animals.

Of course, there are bad ones as well as good ones. Many of them were bought and sold for the first time, with fear on their faces, and those who held good fantasies and hoped to fly to the branches. Most of them were numb and sold many times. Now, they have gradually become numb, there are too few people like the old Song family.

"Well, Lao Song didn't make it clear, so I brought everyone here. Brother Ling, you can choose whatever you want, and we can discuss the price." To Ling Jingxuan, Liu Baoren always held a flattering and inexplicable fear, although he I don't even know what I'm afraid of.

"Father and mother, Big Brother Zhao, Big Brother Han, Jinghan Jingpeng, you guys choose first."

After roughly looking at those people, Ling Jingxuan resolutely gave up the priority. When Zhao Han and his wife heard that they had a share, they hurriedly said: "We don't need it. You see, we basically spend three meals a day at your place, and the family also has a field. It’s useless to buy people if you need to wait on them.”

They don't dare to be as extravagant as Ling Jingxuan, although they are considered rich in Lingjia Village now.

"Hehe... Don't you want to match Tie Wazi with a servant boy or something? I'm planning to match Xiaowen with one. Xiaohuzi is more stable, so I will leave it to Xiaowu. Bookboys and servants are best. Pick children who are about the same age as them, and let them grow up together so that they can serve them better in the future. Sooner or later, Tie Wazi and the others will go to Beijing to catch exams, we can't let them go alone, can we?"

As long as it is something that Ling Jingxuan has decided on, he has plenty of rhetoric to persuade them. No, when it comes to Tie Wazi, Zhao Dalong is decisively silent, and Han Fei's eyes are even more bluntly shifted to those children. They are willing to pay more money.

"Mom, let me accompany you."

Seeing that his father and mother did not move for a long time, Ling Jinghan stood up and helped her up, and Ling Jingpeng on the other side did not fall behind, helped his father to follow behind them, and walked past the four rows of people one by one. Seeing that the two brothers look good, one is strong and the other is elegant, and they both look like they are not married, so they inevitably raised their heads slightly at a 45-degree angle, looking at them pitifully, but unfortunately, the two brothers were puzzled It's coquettish, and I didn't even look at them.

"Just this girl, she looks pretty good."

When they got to the last row, they were about to finish reading. Ling Wang randomly chose a pretty girl. Ling Jinghan glanced at her and frowned almost imperceptibly. Ling Jingxuan who noticed this also looked over, and saw The girl was looking at Ling Jinghan shyly and timidly, Ling Jingxuan suddenly found it funny, is his mother going to choose a concubine for Jinghan?This girl's appearance is very pure, but the coquettish and foxy eyes in those eyes are undisguised. I'm afraid that the maid who climbed the bed from some rich family was sold out by the mistress?She really dared to choose.

"Mom, we are the ones who choose to work, not the beauty pageants. You can't just look at their looks. You have to look at their hands first. You can't take the ones that don't have any calluses on their hands. Also, they are too good-looking. No way, mother, you are the most beautiful beauty in our family, how can anyone compare to you?"

Ling Jinghan, who supported her, said half-jokingly, and indirectly denied the choice of that girl.

"Go, go, how can you tease your own mother like this?"

After he made a fuss, most of Ling Wang's nervousness disappeared. According to the method he said, he took the girl's hand and looked at it. It was even more tender than she had been raising for more than a month. Ling Wang gave up resolutely and turned to her. He chose again, and finally chose a woman who looked about 30 years old and had a birthmark on her face. Ling Jinghan asked her again and found out that she was sold because she was too ugly and offended her original master. So I didn't stop it anymore, the left and right are servants, as Yan Shengrui said, if it's not suitable for sale, it's fine.

And Ling Chenglong is rare and smarter than his wife. He carefully selected a middle-aged man who was as honest as him at first glance, and then Ling Jinghan and Ling Jingpeng also selected two men in their twenties. My own idea is to pick out those who look honest and have calluses on their hands. However, everything is not absolute, and they will soon find out that buying people is also a profound knowledge, and you must not look at people on the surface.
