Grandpa is not vegetarian

In the evening, when the teahouse was closed, Mu Yunyi finished paying the bills, and when he returned to Songlin Street, there were already a few more people in the house.Gao Yichun bought four boys, and when he saw Mu Yunyi came back, he called them all to the East Outer Room to show Mu Yunyi.

Mu Yunyi washed his head and face with hot water first, and then sat on the Kang while enjoying the tea Shang Yi handed over. The four boys were all wearing patched clothes and stood in a row on the ground with their heads bowed.

Gao Yichun said: "I bought them from the hands of four people. They don't know each other, and they don't know each other. They all escaped from Heishan and Beizhen, and they are still in good health. I asked the doctor I read it and bought it because there is no disease.”

Mu Yunyi nodded: "What's their name?"

Gao Yichun said with a smile: "Their real names were just iron eggs, goats, etc. We have limited ink in our stomachs, so we won't wait for you, the head of the family, to come back and name them."

Mu Yunyi took a sip of tea, put down the tea cup, and asked the boy standing on the westernmost side: "Where is your family? How old are you this year? Who else is in the family? Tell me about you."

The boy was tall and thin, like a thin bamboo pole. According to Mu Yunyi, he was at least 1.7 meters tall, half a head taller than Gao Yichun and Shang Yi, but he was so thin that he only had a jacket on his body. Straight embellishments, obviously ill-fitting, did not know where they came from, it was empty and big, like a face pocket, the front and back hem were torn, just like the skirt, revealing a pair of skinny and slender feet underneath.

Hearing Mu Yunyi's question, he came forward first, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed to Mu Yunyi. This was all taught by Ren Yazi after he got into Ren Yazi's hands. The first time he saw his master, he had to kowtow. He thought Gao Yichun was the master, but this time he heard that Mu Yunyi was also the head of the family, so he knocked him down again. The life of a servant is worthless, and the dignity of a horse is even lower.

Ren Yazi bought them, and it is impossible to raise them for nothing. He had to try his best to sell them, or he would have to lose money. It’s about flogging and sticking, no matter how wild you are, you will be trained to be humble and obedient, and you will also be taught the rules of the master’s house, otherwise the sold children will not be good when they come to the master’s house, and no one will come to them in the future I bought it, and at this time people who do business | business also pay attention to word of mouth.

Once a person is enslaved, regardless of gender, the body and life do not belong to him. Even if the master tortures him to death, there is no place to redress his grievances. Human teeth have been trained|taught these things repeatedly, so when he is new to the master's house, All of them should read silently and be careful that there is no big mistake: "My servant is from Heishan Village. He is 16 years old this year. There is a father, a mother, and a younger brother in the family. There was a big hailstorm in the field the year before last, which damaged most of the land. Last year, there was a severe drought, and there was almost no harvest. My elder brother was beaten to death for fighting for water. Originally, my father and I were sawing people on the east mountain, and we could barely survive, but my father’s leg was broken again in the summer, so there was nothing we could do. We wanted to sell my younger brother, but my younger brother was too young to If someone is willing to take it, they can only sell me out and get money to treat my father's injuries."

When he said this, tears were streaming down his face and his words choked up, which made everyone in the room feel heartbroken and sad.

Mu Yunyi asked Gao Yichun: "How much did you pay for him?"

Gao Yichun said: "He can do heavy work as soon as he enters the door, so he is more expensive, costing 16 taels of silver."

Mu Yunyi felt panicked in his heart. When he first came here, he was almost sold by the Gao family. If he was reduced to a land like this child, he really didn't know if he could survive. Waving his hand: "You will be called Qingming from now on. Qingming worships the ancestors. You will be a member of our Gao family in the future. Calling this name, and chasing after the end carefully, can be regarded as a memorial to your ancestors. I also hope that you can be innocent. Be bright and clean, no matter how far you go in the future, be an upright man with a clear conscience."

"Thank you, master, for giving me the name." Qingming burst into tears, kowtowed three more times to Gao Yichun, then got up, bowed her head and stood sideways. If you have a reward, you have to knock three.

Mu Yunyi asked the second boy again: "What's your situation?"

The child was kneeling on the ground, just about to speak, when suddenly someone knocked on the courtyard door, Ma Le ran out to open the door, and brought in a man dressed as a servant, holding an octagonal mahogany carved box in his arms, like a food box, came in Afterwards, he bowed to Mu Yunyi first: "Hi, Mr. Wei, I am from the Wei family, and our Master Juren asked me to bring you this hot pot."

Mu Yunyi was pleasantly surprised: "I plan to pick it up tomorrow morning. Uncle Wei is too thoughtful, so he thought of sending it to me just now!" He went to pick up the wooden box, opened the lid, and there was indeed a brass The hot pot is similar to the charcoal-fired hot pot he has seen in later generations, but it is much thicker. After all, all the ones he saw on Taobao are made of modern technology, just a layer of paper-thin copper sheet. This is an ancient method. It was made, with tin inside hanging on the inside and cloud patterns carved on the outside, which is very beautiful and elegant.

Mu Yunyi put down the hot pot, and said to the boy: "It's cold and gloomy today, it's hard for you to go, old lady, give him fifty dollars to buy wine, it's getting late, I won't leave you in vain, Turn around and thank Uncle Wei for me."

The little servant pushed a few times, and with Mu Yunyi's insistence, he finally took the money in his hand and went there gratefully.

Mu Yunyi turned around and saw the child was still kneeling on the ground, so he ignored the hot pot, but asked him: "I think you look fairer than them, so your family background is not bad?"

The boy said: "Returning to the master, I am 15 years old. It turned out that my family was very difficult, so my mother sold me to an extinct family in a neighboring village. She originally said that I would be a son for their family and carry on the family. Fortunately, this mother passed away later, and my father married four concubines, but within half a year, one of them gave birth to a son for him, so I was useless, and was sold to a member's family as a servant, without two concubines. The prefect of the month was dismissed and investigated because of the failure of the disaster relief. Our staff was also implicated, our family property was confiscated, and we were demoted to slavery. We sold them like masters and slaves, and our hands fell a few times, so I came here gone."

Mu Yunyi sighed slightly, thinking that this is really a slave, and he can no longer be in charge of his own fate: "Your fate is full of twists and turns. You look a little cold and fair, and you will be a little bit more in the future." Call it Hanlu."

Han Lu also kowtowed twice, then got up and stood with Qingming.

The remaining two children were relatively short, one was quite handsome, shy and timid, standing there with his head buried low, not daring to move at all, the other was a little dark with a bunny face, He had big eyes, but he was extremely curious. Although he lowered his head, he kept raising his eyes, and looked at Mu Yunyi quietly.Both of them escaped with their adults, their parents died on the way, and when they arrived here, they were sold by their relatives.Mu Yunyi named the first one Gu Yu, and the last one Xiaoman.

Mu Yunyi said: "Our family rules are different from other places..."

Before finishing speaking, Gao Yichun interrupted: "The rules of our family are indeed different from those of other places. The most important thing is to be loyal. Since you have entered the door of our Gao family, you will be members of the Gao family from now on. Don't think twice, sneaky, hide and seek, if you try to deceive the Lord, you must be sent to the Yamen, and the boss will beat you to death..."

Mu Yunyi felt uncomfortable in his heart. He knew that Gao Yichun did nothing wrong. After all, although the slave's fate is in the master's hands, it is not wrong for the evil slave to deceive the master, steal, rape and cheat the master's family with outsiders. Rarely, there are even collusion with robbers, and looting of the lord's house happens from time to time. They don't have any fame now. If they don't use some means, they can't erect their dignity. It is bound to cause disaster.

Mu Yunyi is the soul of modern people, and he can't understand these things, but in this level of ancient times, he has no other choice but to secretly rejoice that he is not a slave, and he is not like other transmigrators who can practice Iron and steel, research and development of gunpowder, and lead a group of subordinates to compete for the top. He has nothing. In Guo Degang's words, he is just a cross talk talker. He has no other skills and cannot break this society|system, so he can only adapt to it and integrate into it. If you can't adapt, there is only a dead end.

So he stopped talking and let Gao Yichun teach the four children: "In our family, I am the eldest, Yuan Bao is the second child, and that child is the third child. Get up at Mao time (five o'clock in the morning) every day, chop firewood and boil water, and then wait for the errands we arrange for you to do for the day, don't steal, rape and play tricks..." He said a lot, and the four of them nodded in agreement, and finally Gao Yichun looked at Mu Yun Yi, "Yuan Bao, are you hungry? Shall we get ready for dinner?"

Before eating, everyone has to wash their hands and face. Shang Yi and Ma Le each cut off a basin of hot water. One waited for Mu Yunyi to wash his face, and the other waited for Mu Yunyi to wash his feet. Mu Yunyi once asked them not to do this. But the two of them didn't listen, they only said that they were respectful and respectful to the master. After a long time, Mu Yunyi got used to it a little bit.

Now there are four new ones, Gao Yichun said: "Let them come, Xiaoyi and Ma Le, you don't have to do these things for Yuanbao anymore, from now on, you only need to study well, and if you get a scholar next year, that's right." His greatest filial piety."

Those four newcomers grabbed hot steamed buns with cold hands, and didn't know where the belongings were. Shang Yi and Ma Le heard Gao Yichun say this, and looked at Mu Yunyi together. Mu Yunyi knew that Gao Yichun was for the newcomers. It is common for the subordinates to set rules. There was once a family where the servants entered the courtyard. Regardless of gender, they all had to take off their clothes and kneel in the courtyard to receive a hundred lashes. When Yunyi heard Zhao Yuanwai and the others talk about this matter, they all agreed with each other in terms of expressions and attitudes, knowing that this is the norm here.

He had already decided to cooperate with Gao Yichun in his heart, so he nodded immediately: "You are my disciples, as long as you are truly filial, you can be filial in everything, if this is not the case, let them come." He saw Qingming and Han Lu coming over with a basin each, Gu Yu and Xiaoman each holding a soap and a towel, and they all hugged the edge of the kang waiting to serve him. Jiong said, "It's enough for Gu Yu to serve me alone, you go and serve the young master!"

Gao Yichun said: "No need, we all do it ourselves, in this family, only the second young master is the most honored, you must take care of him!" After talking about it, he couldn't hold back his laughter.
