Tang slid the Buddhist beads in his hand, and said in a deep voice after a while: "Did you ask clearly? The nine of them are really willing to use it for me?"

Tang's dowry mother said in a low voice: "Yes, they are desperate now. They are going to be sent to the mine. If they are sold, they can redeem themselves, but the other side is holding on to them. Holding on to the deed of prostitution seems to be trying to torture people to death."

Tang said indifferently: "People who come from that kind of place are naturally vicious in their minds."

Tang shi was a little hesitant, she didn't want to get involved in this matter, she was a little worried as soon as Buzhuang was raided, Gu Jingyun and Li Baolu were not stingy about messing around, and they didn't shy away from anything, for fear that they would bring up the past.

But after watching for two or three days, seeing that there was a delay in finding her, she felt that they might not know about the fact that the manager of the cloth village respected her.

The manager of Buzhuang wouldn't mention it specifically, and the account should have been settled, so what else did she have to worry about?

I thought she had nothing to do with this matter, but I didn't expect the manager of Buzhuang to send a letter...

Tang rubbed the letter hesitantly, and pondered for a long time before saying: "I don't care about that bit of filial piety, but all nine of their families have children, and they have worked for the Gu family for generations. There is no credit but hard work. How can I call them?" Was it really tortured to death?"

Mammy bowed, "Madam is kind."

"You go to pay some money to the account, and take someone to Lingsheng Street tomorrow, and tell her that if she doesn't want to use these slaves anymore, she can give them to the Hou Mansion, and the Hou Mansion is willing to pay for them. , " Tang said with a sarcasm, "She stole the slaves so impatiently because she was short of money. You must know that when the family was divided, they didn't give them a penny."

"Although their husband and wife are young, they are shameless and shameless. Don't try to get tough with them. Be as soft as you want. You must coax the contract of sale into your hands."

Gu Jingyun and Li Baolu were too entangled, and with Lord Hou's attitude, Tang didn't want to provoke them, but this time was different, she didn't like those filial piety, but she liked the connections of those nine families.

Those nine families were all born with children. They had countless relatives and friends in the mansion, and they were the most well-informed. The two news given today alone were worth the risk for her to take the risk. With her contacts in hand, what news could she want?

The children of these families have always been slippery, they will respect her gold and silver, flatter her, but they will not take refuge in her, and they will not use their connections to serve her.

Now is a good opportunity.

The nine stewards have no brothers but also have sisters, sisters have husbands and children, their mothers also have brothers and sisters, and brothers and sisters have their own family backgrounds...

Domestic servants are similar to aristocratic families, close relatives, closely connected, and related to each other, and because their scope of activities is only so much, the relationship is closer, and it will be much more convenient for her to have children in the inner house, What's more, this is the nine.

Their relatives and friends are all over the front yard, back house, and farm pavement of the Hou Mansion. Tang, who has never been able to hold power, can't help but feel hot inside, and his eyes are as bright as fire.

This is her chance, Da Fang's chance, she must not let it go.

Tang stayed up all night, and the next day her dowry nun went to the account to withdraw a thousand taels of silver, which she felt was more than enough to buy nine servants.

Even if one is worth twenty taels, forty-three people are only eight hundred and sixty taels. Those children and old people are not worth the price, and they look like they treat Li Baolu like a human tooth.

Li Baolu is arranging Gu Jingyun's court clothes. Today is the court meeting. He is going to the court. The court clothes are a bit cumbersome. Gu Jingyun frowned and put them on. Seeing that his collar was crooked, Li Baolu smiled and stepped forward to tidy it up for him.

Gu Jingyun's face looked much better now, he shook her hand and said: "Don't play too much, when I come back from court, I will take you to the academy, those servants will have their seniors send someone to pick them up, don't worry about it."

"Hey, can I go to the academy to play too?"

"Maybe it wasn't possible before, but now that I'm a husband, I can do whatever I say."

Li Baolu was happy, "Then shall I bring gifts for your little disciples?"

Gu Jingyun tilted his head and thought for a while, "Bring them something to eat," he said helplessly, "They are growing up, their mouths are very greedy, and they don't stop all day long."

"You're growing up too. From now on, I'll make some food for you every day. If you're hungry, you'll eat after class."

Gu Jingyun nodded with a smile, very satisfied with her attitude of always thinking about herself.

Because she could visit Qingxi Academy, Li Baolu didn't care about the people in Zhongyonghou's Mansion anymore, and brought the cook and Hongtao Qingling to the kitchen to prepare various snacks in high spirits.

Two baskets were made of chestnut cake, sweet-scented osmanthus cake, Shaqima and Tangwan. Li Baolu rolled up his sleeves and took out a fat chicken that had just been slaughtered. He cleaned the belly and filled it with various ingredients. Then Feizhen filled the belly, wrapped it layer by layer with the dried lotus leaves left over from last year, and threw it into the stove.

The cook's speed of killing chickens was also fast. Li Baolu only filled in one, and the cook killed two more. The eyes of the hearts went straight, and she kept admonishing: "Enough, enough, ma'am, Young masters may not be able to eat so much."

There were only twenty people in total, and they were all children in their early teens. How could they eat so much?

Li Baolu shook her head, "How is that possible? I can eat one by myself, but I don't need to make so many chickens. Let's make some dried pork."

Heart: "..." Ma'am, don't judge others by your food intake.

Li Baolu is growing up, and suddenly has a big appetite in the past few days. She can eat two bowls of rice every day, and she also eats vegetables.

This directly led to her chubby face, and the baby's fat didn't decrease but increased. It looked so cute that Gu Jingyun and Zhao Ning, who were eating with her, also had a big appetite. The rice consumption of the Gu family doubled. Fortunately, Gu Jingyun has a salary, and has to write the emperor's rewards from time to time, otherwise the cook will worry that there will be no rice for the pot after a while.

Li Baolu was very straightforward, "Brother Jing Yun and I are growing up, let alone two bowls, three bowls is normal."

Zhao Ning, who has reached the crown and thinks he has stopped growing, can't wait to work hard. His appetite has also increased, but he seems to have passed the growth period.

Li Baolu grinned and added, "Zigui is a mature man, if he eats less than us, wouldn't he be a weak chicken?"

Now Zhao Ning also increased his appetite with peace of mind, but the health of the two of them also improved a lot with the increase in appetite.

Because she ate a lot and prepared a lot of ingredients in the kitchen, Li Baolu went to meet the junior disciples for the first time, in order to make a good impression on them, so she prepared a lot of delicious food.

When the dowry nanny brought people to Gu's mansion, bursts of aroma were wafting from inside, making everyone feel that they were hungry again after having breakfast.

The dowry mother was puzzled, "Is there a guest in the Gu residence today?"

Then you have to be more careful, otherwise it won't look good if you make a fuss, the child bride is shameless, and the Marquis's house still has face.

The dowry nun winked at a follower and told him to go up and knock on the door.

The servants in the courtyard next door kept their ears upright listening to the movement outside. When they heard the knock on the door, the Gu manor hadn't responded. The door next door opened first, and the steward of the cloth village's eyes lit up when he saw this nun.

Isn't this the nanny that Da Furen needs? He knows her, he sees her often when he enters the mansion.

The dowry mother gave him a slight nod as a greeting, then turned her head and looked at the words on the plaque seriously - Gu Fu.

There are quite a few people with the surname Gu in the capital, but the only Gu mansion that can be recognized by the people in the capital is Zhongyonghoufu. government.

Gu Jingyun is only a child, and he has only been in the capital for half a year, so where does he come from so much energy?

It's just taking advantage of the Qin family's power.

Of course, these are not things that a servant like Mammy can think of. This is what the old lady said, and the old lady told her after listening. This shows how much the old lady doesn't like this grandson, and calls him by his first name.

Even though she thought so, the nanny did not dare to be presumptuous when she entered the door. Instead, she walked up to Li Baolu respectfully, bowed her knees and bowed her head before bowing her head and said: "Daan, the third grandma, the eldest lady just heard the news from outside yesterday. A few slaves bullied the master, and the eldest lady was very angry, so she asked the slaves to take them back and teach them."

The dowry mother immediately took out the box, presented the silver ticket and said: "The eldest lady knows that the third grandma is afraid that she will not be used to the servants of the Hou's mansion, so she asked the servant to send a thousand taels of silver. Grandma personally chooses suitable servants."

The dowry nun kept her posture very low, and Li Baolu also smiled at her gently: "My aunt really has a heart, but the news of the Hou's residence is too poor, and she didn't know the news that the whole capital knew until yesterday. "

Li Baolu shook her head and said with a smile: "I don't know about the servants of the Hou Mansion. These servants of mine are indeed very disobedient, but it doesn't matter, wild horses can still be tamed, let alone human beings? Take this money back, buy it The newcomer needs to be trained, and the old one is also trained, anyway, why bother to change?"

The dowry mother was startled, she didn't expect that Li Baolu would refuse, but Li Baolu had already smiled and turned to Hongtao and said, "It's rare for the mother to come here, I just made a lot of snacks, please ask the mother to bring some back to the old lady , Eldest Aunt, Second Aunt and Third Madam, my family is a bit busy now, so I won’t come to say hello in person.”

The dowry mother was anxious, "Third grandma, since you don't like these slaves, why keep them around to be an eyesore? It's better to hand them over to the servants and buy another batch of good ones."

Li Baolu's smiling face fell, and she looked at her coldly, Hongtao took a step forward and said in a choked voice: "Nurse, be careful, no matter how bad these servants are, they belong to our uncle and wife. My wife is going to punish, Da Furen is the head of the Zhongyonghou Mansion, just take care of the slaves of the Hou Mansion, what does it mean to intervene in our Gu Mansion?"

The young Qingling also shouted from the side: "That's right, this is bullying our uncle is not at home, is our wife young?"

The dowry nun glared at them angrily, then turned her head to Li Baolu and said, "Third Mistress clearly understood that the servants didn't have such intentions, but they came up with this idea because they were afraid that these slaves would anger Third Mistress..."
