Grandma Zhuang led so many people over and just entered the village entrance, she attracted everyone's attention. Some people came up to ask who they were looking for.
Grandma Zhuang was also back to Lushan Village for the first time. She didn't know where the Yuan family lived, so she originally planned to ask for directions. When she saw someone talking to her, she said, "I am Grandma Zhuang from the city. Yuan Xiucai asked me to help find some people. I
I specially brought them here today to let Yuan Xiucai choose someone."
The villagers suddenly realized that it was the Yuan family who wanted to purchase a buyer.
That's right, their family lives in such a big house and is exhausted from cleaning it every day, so they have to buy some servants.
They couldn't help but feel envious. The Yuan family a year ago might not have been any better than them. After marrying Su Yueling, they could even manage servants. However, because of the Yuan family's kindness, the whole village more or less took care of them.
It's a good thing, so everyone is envious and not as jealous as before.
There are also enthusiastic villagers leading the way, "Come, I will take you there."
"Did you see it? That's the Yuan family. But you have to go to the other side. The courtyards in front are still under construction."
Granny Zhuang also knew that the Yuan family was certainly not short of money. After all, Yuan Suijun asked for ten for every mouth he opened, and a small family could not afford to feed so many mouths. However, when she came to the door of the Yuan family, looking at the big house,
He still opened his mouth in shock.
My dear, why does this house feel bigger than the homes of those wealthy foreign ministers in the city?
Wasn't Yuan Suijun a scholar? Are all today's scholars so wealthy?
Seeing the people from the city being silenced, the villagers in Lushan Village felt strangely proud.
They also reminded Granny Zhuang, "The Yuan family was able to build such a big house because they married a good wife."
They began to brag about Su Yueling, saying that it was Su Yueling who had come up with the method of making white sugar that is now very expensive in the city. Even the richest people in the state came to look for her to buy money.
Grandma Zhuang also knew about white sugar, but she didn't expect that this white sugar was related to Su Yueling.
From this point of view, it is likely that Su Yueling is the one who calls the shots for the Yuan family. After all, the Yuan family relies on her for food.
Then Ashu probably won't be left behind.
She had also heard about Su Yueling's reputation and knew that she was arrogant and would not tolerate others.
She said a few kind words and thanked the villagers who had just reminded them, and then watched many villagers building houses enthusiastically, and then walked to another door.
They happened to pass by the door of Zhang's house, and Zhang Chengwang, who had the window open in his study, naturally heard the noise outside the door.
He raised his head, looked out the window, and clenched the hand holding the pen a little tighter.
Yuan Suijun really went wild as soon as he succeeded. He just brought three people back to serve them a few days ago, and now he wants to find so many more. The ostentation is even bigger than that of the wealthy families in the city.
When he saw Ashu in the crowd, who was wearing coarse clothes and still looked stunning, his eyes couldn't help but freeze.
In terms of beauty, the girl is only slightly worse than Su Yueling. Unlike Su Yueling's eye-piercing publicity and willfulness, the girl looks gentle and delicate, like a water lotus swaying gently by the river.
Especially the lowered posture was even more charming, reminding him of his ex-wife Liniang.
Such a beautiful woman should have been married to a good man and taken care of in the palm of her hand, instead of being treated as a commodity to be randomly selected by others. Judging from her outstanding temperament, I am afraid she was well-educated in the past. I just don't know what happened to her family and she will be reduced to this.
To be a slave and a maid.
Zhang Chengwang couldn't help but feel a touch of pity and distress for the unknown girl in his heart. He felt that he was not the kind of person who was greedy for beauty and would not be unable to move forward after seeing a beauty.
It's just that this girl reminded him of his beloved Liniang. After all, Liniang's status in his heart was different.
The ink on the pen dripped onto the paper, ruining the page he was about to copy, but Zhang Chengwang couldn't care about it, his mind was filled with the image of a girl.
If Yuan Suijun saw such a face, he would probably want to keep her as a servant. But whether she is a maid or a concubine, it would be a blasphemy to the girl.
However, Yuan Suijun now lives in Su Yueling's house. Perhaps he is worried about Su Yueling and does not dare to buy that stunning girl.
Zhang Chengwang feels that this possibility is still very high. After all, everyone in the Yuan family can praise Su Yueling without conscience in order to live a good life.
Thinking of this, his heart, which had been tightly clenched into a ball, began to expand again.
He stood up, went to his bookshelf, took out the second book from the left on the third floor of the shelf, and opened the book. This book contained twelve 10-tael silver notes, which were all the money Zhang Chengwang had saved over the years.
.
He took out six silver notes. At sixty taels, he should be able to buy the girl.
At least with him, he wouldn't let her suffer those grievances.
It was rare to see a girl who looked similar to Liniang, and he really couldn't help but watch her fall into the fire pit. It would be a kind of comfort if he could see her from time to time.
…
Su Yueling received the news that Ren Yazi had brought someone here, so she went out of the room to take a look.
She had heard that Granny Zhuang had brought thirty people over this time, and she hoped she could jump on a few that she liked.
When she came out, Yuan Suijun and Yuan Baoshu also came.
This was the first time that Granny Zhuang saw Su Yueling. Although she had been mentally prepared, she still stood there blankly when she saw that scorching face.
Before, she thought that the Ashu she brought was already one of the most beautiful women in the world. Unexpectedly, Su Yueling's appearance was even better than Ashu's. Her careless demeanor carried an unparalleled attraction that made people just want to look at her.
All the best things were held in front of her, just asking her to smile.
If Ashu is a charming lotus, then Su Yueling is a peony in full bloom, delicate and gorgeous.
"Is this all the people?" Su Yueling asked Granny Zhuang, "Are there not more?"
Grandma Zhuang came back to her senses and said, "Yes, this is already the most suitable person we can find in the nearby counties."
She hesitated for a moment, and then introduced Ashu. Su Yueling herself was here, and she was afraid that Ashu would be the first to be dismissed.
Although Su Yueling's appearance is not inferior to Ashu's, or even slightly better, but even a beauty may not be happy to have another type of beauty around her who is equally as beautiful as herself.
She introduced them one by one, starting with Ashu.
Su Yueling's eyes lit up when she heard that Ashu could serve pen and ink, and asked: "Besides this, what else can you do? Can you comb your hair?"
Ashu responded quickly and said gently: "Report to Madam, I can do twenty four kinds of buns."
Su Yueling: "!!!"
This is more than Baoshu can comb! In Su Yueling's eyes, Baoshu can comb more than ten kinds of combs, which is already very impressive. Unexpectedly, there is a mountain higher than the mountain.
Very good, she likes it! Not to mention she is good-looking. A beauty like her needs beautiful maids to support her.
She pointed her finger at Ashu and showed a smile as bright as the morning sun, "Very good, I want her!"
