[Red Chamber] Xiuyan is a little Shennong
Chapter 21 Defense
At this time, Xiao Xu also said that Xing Xiu's smoke had reached her daughter.
"Mother, you can't really watch your granddaughter become a maid for others." Xiao Xu just wants the Xing family to redeem her daughter, and the Xing family has to pay for it. If there is a maid in the family, it will make others How do you look at them, they live in the town anyway.
"She decides by herself." Old Madam Xu said, "It's only been a few days, you ask her how much money she has, and buy it back by yourself."
"How can a child know how to save money?" Xiao Xu said, "I'm afraid she doesn't know where to put it, so ask my sister to help. If Xiuyan has a cousin who is a maid, it won't sound good."
In front of Baihua pastry shop, some customers saw this, instead of buying pastries, they were listening to gossip.
Mrs. Xu glanced at the people around her, really delaying her business.The youngest daughter also thinks so beautifully, hehe, how could Mrs. Xu make the eldest daughter compromise.
"Whoever sells it will redeem it by himself. What's the matter, if someone else redeems it for you, you can sell it again next time." Mrs. Xu put her hands on her hips. Is it?"
"Oh, that's right, you have been married for so many years, and you haven't returned to your natal family once a year." Mrs. Xu said, "Recently, you appear to be diligent."
The little Xu family also needs to save face, knowing that Mrs. Xu is here, the Xing family can't give money, so they can only take their daughter and leave in despair.
Of course, Xiao Xu did not redeem her daughter in the end, and the daughter sold herself as soon as she sold herself.
"Where's the silver?" Xiao Xu asked when they were walking on the road with Jin Hua, "It's not safe for you to keep it in your hand, lest someone steal it, it's better for mother to help you keep it."
Jinhua knew that if her mother kept it, it would be gone, she didn't want to.
"It's only five taels of silver." Jinhua gritted her teeth, and actually sold it for ten taels of silver.She doesn't plan to give it all to Xiao Xu, she wants to hide it.
"How much is it selling for? Don't try to hide it, just ask those people and you will know." Xiao Xu said.
"It's only five taels of silver, and there will be wages every month in the future." Jinhua refused to say more, "My daughter is so thin, they don't want to pay more silver. Today, you made such a fuss in your cousin's pastry shop, I'm afraid that the master will be unhappy if he finds out, and there will be..."
"Okay, stop talking, bring it." Xiao Xu said.
Jinhua took out the purse, but before she took out the silver, Xiao Xu had already snatched the purse.As soon as Xiao Xu opened her purse, she saw six taels of silver, and she was very happy, "You child, you still want to hide it from me."
"A girl asked you to buy money, you can't take it away." Jinhua had an idea, she thought six was an auspicious number, so she took six taels with her, and she hid the rest in the master's house, "If you take it away, I will It is light to be beaten, and there may be no monthly payment in the future."
"It's really useless." Xiao Xu still gave Jinhua a tael of silver, so as not to be unable to continue the job.
Jin Hua watched Xiao Xu leave just like that, and felt pitiful.If the Xing family kept me, why would I be like this.Xing Xiuyan is really cruel, he would rather hire someone else than her.
If Xing Xiuyan knew what Jin Hua was thinking, she would be very speechless.If she wanted to sell herself, she blamed others for what she did. No one forced Jin Hua to sell herself.
The Baihua pastry shop, the bustle is over, and those people started buying pastries.
It's just that there will inevitably be people who don't distinguish between right and wrong, there to persuade the Xing family that they should let that girl stay in the pastry shop.
"If you are kind-hearted, I will take you home." Mrs. Xu said bluntly.
Xing Xiuyan felt that it was impossible for Mrs. Xu to live at home, that is, Mrs. Xu could calm down these people.
Those people take it for granted, do they think the pastry is ready?Think she makes a lot of money?
Xing Xiuyan has indeed made a lot of money during this period of time, so it is impossible to spend all of it casually.
"I'm afraid it's impossible for my aunt to bring my cousin back." Xing Xiuyan went to the backyard with Mrs. Xu, and said this, "Maybe I can still get my wages every month in the future."
"Don't worry about it for the time being. After Jinhua has been a maid for a long time, she will know that it is not easy." Mrs. Xu is also helpless. If she goes to buy Jinhua now, it will cost them money, and Jinhua will definitely buy it. Not grateful.
Maybe Jinhua thought it was good to sell herself to a wealthy family as a maid, and felt that she had found a good way out.
If they buy Jinhua and don't arrange a good way out for Jinhua, there will be all kinds of disputes in the future.
"Just wait." Mrs. Xu sighed, then turned to look at Mother Xing, "Don't look at her too much."
"Nothing, right?" Mother Xing thought she was just seeing her, so there shouldn't be anything wrong.
"What do you mean it's nothing, it's already happened." Mrs. Xu really wanted to pry her eldest daughter's head open to see what she was thinking, "What do you have to do with them, it's not good to live a good life by yourself ?"
Mrs. Xu thought that Jinhua would definitely want to live a good life, and she must be careful.
"Don't get together." My mother said so, and Xing's mother didn't dare to move too much.
Mother Xing could feel that her daughter was very unhappy these days, and that something like this happened today, and her daughter hadn't said a word to her yet.
Xing's mother is such a person. If Xing Xiuyan talks to her more, she still thinks that Xing Xiuyan is going too far with Jinhua.But Xing Xiuyan didn't speak, and kept her cold, she wondered if Xing Xiuyan was angry, and would he talk to her later?
Throughout the whole day, Xing Xiuyan didn't say anything to Xing's mother.
After dinner, Mrs. Xu didn't go to find Xing Xiuyan, but went into the room alone to talk with Xing's mother.
"Don't blame Xiuyan." Old Madam Xu said, "If you want me, I will be angry too. Today, after what I said, you are still thinking about nothing."
"Don't blame her." Mother Xing said.
"I know your temperament. I don't blame you now. If Xiuyan's attitude softens, you must think of you as an elder again, and think of how a daughter can treat you so coldly." Old lady Xu said, "When the time comes, you Do you still want to talk about your daughter?"
"No...not." Mother Xing felt guilty, she might indeed think so.
"Is it easy for you to do those jobs in the field? She also has to make pastries from time to time." Mrs. Xu said, "Isn't it hard? You just want to use your daughter's hard-earned money to give to others? Or do you think selling Easy money to spend?"
"No, really not." Xing's mother really thought that she really thought so at the beginning, a flower cost 800 taels of silver, and those prescriptions were also sold for thousands of taels of silver.
"Why didn't you make money before, but did you make money later?" Mrs. Xu could tell that her granddaughter was still the same granddaughter, but she was much stronger. I studied it, and ran up the mountain again. I bought those things all at once, because I was afraid that the money would be gone all at once.”
Mrs. Xu said this because she was worried that Mother Xing was wondering if her daughter might be possessed by dirty things.Who knows whether Xing's mother would think that way, people's hearts are unpredictable, especially some people are very stupid and easy to think about it.
"Mother." When Mother Xing thought of the cold that her daughter had, she was afraid. At that time, she was afraid that her daughter would just disappear.
"You've been married for so many years, and it's time to grow up." Mrs. Xu said, "You can't protect your daughter too much, then you can live your own life and don't worry about others."
"Yes." Mother Xing nodded.
"Look at your husband, the son-in-law doesn't care much about these things." Mrs. Xu knew Father Xing's actions during this period, "He didn't ask Xiuyan to help the people in Xingjiacun more, and he didn't ask her to take more money. Come on. He went fishing, he went to meet friends, and he brought some pastries, which is not too much."
Mrs. Xu really felt that Xing's father had done a good job. He was alone and didn't seem to care enough about his daughter, but he didn't cause her daughter any trouble.No trouble, no trouble, this is a good performance.
"You haven't given birth to a son, so you don't worry that others will fall in love with your husband and want to give him a son?" Mrs. Xu said, "Although those things are recorded in your dowry list, you can guarantee that your husband will not give birth to a son." Think otherwise."
"It's also recorded under Xiuyan's name." Xing's mother said, but the daughter didn't give her all the things.
"Yes." Mrs. Xu thinks this is good. It's not that this dynasty does not allow unmarried women to own their own property, "If you take care of your health and give birth to a son, will you give those things to Xiuyan?"
"She's not guarding against me, is she?" Mother Xing subconsciously said.
"If you really want to guard against you, why give you so many things?" Mrs. Xu just felt that the eldest daughter was really stupid. things, but don’t think about it, you’re already at this age.”
Mrs. Xu said that it is true to guard against the female fairies outside.
Many men are like that. If they don't have a son and have some money in their hands, they may go out to find women.
They didn't know Xing Zhong well, Xing Zhong felt that life was pretty good now, and he didn't think about finding other women to have children.Xing Zhong could see that his daughter was different, and that his daughter had become stronger. If he really went looking for her, he might have a hard time.
What Xing Zhong thinks is that his own life is easy, and he doesn't care what others do.It doesn't matter whether you have a son or not.It's not that he has advanced ideas, and he doesn't think that sons and daughters are the same, but that he is the most important.
Like now, I don't need to copy books to make money, and I still have pocket money every month, so I can go to restaurants to drink wine, and I can go fishing with my friends.He didn't take out the pastry at home every time, but took it out once in a while.
What Xing Zhong thinks is that those who can sell money, why do they make others cheaper every time, and just get cheaper once in a while.
It's just that it's impossible for Xing Zhong to say those things to his wife. He is a man, so what do he say.
"You can live with peace of mind." Mrs. Xu felt that her eldest daughter was what she missed the most.
Mrs. Xu didn't talk to Xing Xiuyan, her granddaughter was a smart person, so she naturally knew what to do.
At this time, Jin Hua's employer already knew that she was the niece of the Xing family of Baihua Bakery.
"Mother, you can't really watch your granddaughter become a maid for others." Xiao Xu just wants the Xing family to redeem her daughter, and the Xing family has to pay for it. If there is a maid in the family, it will make others How do you look at them, they live in the town anyway.
