After returning from the ship to Nanyang, several families were busy selling goods. I guess they didn't have time to sit together and discuss the matter of going overseas next year.
Guangfeng Shui is willing to be a younger brother and will not do anything to take the lead.
Huo Xi only had some exchanges with Yang Fu and Shen Qianzhong. As for any small moves made by Wanjia, she just ignored them. People and things naturally "separate for a long time, they must come together, and if they come together for a long time, they must separate", so they can only let nature take its course.
Every time Huo Xi came back from an overseas ship, she would keep enough for her family and for giving gifts.
Guangfengshui has always done a good job in holding thighs.
Even the yamen in Jingzhao Yamen who usually patrol the streets and patrol their area gave gifts. Guangfeng Shui has not been secretly suppressed by others in these years, and the gifts have still produced results.
Therefore, from top to bottom, Guangfengshui did not dare to treat the big and small people with contempt and greeted them with a smile. The smaller the people, the more unreasonable they were and the more they had to be coaxed.
Maybe the gifts given everywhere are good, the flattery is done well, and Guangfeng Water has always been smooth sailing.
As a result, Huo Xi felt that paying 20% of the protection fee for that stingy young master was too much. Every time she gave him a bonus, her heart bleeds.
Ping Niang once again received the extra rare items and local products from Zhuangzi that Huo Xi had given her, and she felt emotional while looking through them.
"The benefits I have received from the Huo family over the years have exceeded the money I have given away."
At first, they just wanted to leave a way out for themselves, but they didn't expect to get so much. Miss Huo and her daughter did not look down on themselves, and sent them things every year and festival.
"It's because of the girl's good taste that she found refuge with such a reliable family."
Yaoqin helped her organize her things and was very emotional. Not only did Madam Huo give the girl a gift, she also didn't forget to give her a gift as well.
Her blood relatives sold her to marry their son, but strangers brought her sunshine and warmth.
"Yaoqin, do you want to redeem yourself? It's easier for you to redeem yourself than for me. I can ask the Huo family to arrange it for you."
He shook his head and said, "I want to keep the servant girl here."
Now she is protected by a girl in the building and is not being bullied. She has no worries about food and drink. She really wants to go out, but what will the girl do if she goes out?
"As long as you don't regret it."
"My slave has no regrets. If the girl goes out in the future, I will follow her out and still serve her."
"good."
Mrs. Yang received the clothes that Ping Niang had made for several children. She picked them up and looked through them one by one. She couldn't help but sigh to Grandma Ma: "Look at these fine stitches, look at this embroidery work, these flowers and plants are so beautiful."
It’s like being alive.”
Mother Ma nodded: "The work is better than that of ordinary embroiderers."
He asked Yang again: "Won't Madam dislike her identity?"
"Hey, there is nothing to dislike. They are all common people like us. She can't choose to live like that." Yang really doesn't care. She is kind-hearted and doesn't look down on anyone. Even the servants in her family,
She treats everyone like family.
"She was determined to die and was rescued by us. Over the years, she has been repaying her kindness and brought a lot of business to our shop. She makes clothes for several children and me every year. She is a grateful person. Xi'er said that in the future
I will help her make arrangements and won't leave her homeless."
After hearing this, Mother Ma raised the corner of her mouth.
She no longer has to worry about being homeless in the future. She doesn’t have to worry about being unable to work anymore and having no one to take care of her and no one to pick up her bones. After a rough life, she finally found a good home.
Taking care of Huo's family is even more considerate and considerate.
She became the housekeeper of the Huo family. With her by her side, Yang's whole person changed. She looked more and more like a rich wife. Her gestures and behavior were looked at by outsiders, as if she had always been a wife from a rich family.
He doesn't come from a mud-legged background.
Even Huo Erhuai wondered if the child had been replaced.
He stood with his mother and felt more and more that he was not worthy of her.
Qiqi Ai Ai asked Huo Xi: "Xi'er, can you also find a nanny like that for dad?"
Huo Xi chuckled, "Dad, let me find you a housekeeper, and then find you a boy who has stayed in a wealthy family. You see, my aunt bought two rooms for the family, and found two more for her uncle."
He is a young boy, and now my uncle seems to have become quite successful."
Huo Erhuai nodded repeatedly. He no longer objected to his family buying someone else.
Yang Fu's child is becoming more and more promising now. Since getting married, he has become more and more like the head of the family. He is no longer like the boy who has been fishing with him for more than ten years.
Huo Xi told Nanny Ma to take Yang to buy two houses for a servant and then buy a servant for his father.
Bao Xia was busy with his father, like a steward, running between the city and the village. His father needed a servant by his side.
Originally, Yang and Huo Erhuai didn't want to add anyone to their family. They felt that Grandma Zou and Grandma Zou had already done all the work. The family was born in a hard life and they didn't need anyone to serve them. They only had their own family members at home, and even more.
Be more comfortable.
But when there are more people in the family, there are more things to do, and now people are needed everywhere.
Mother Ma took Yang to find Ren Yazi. She carefully taught Yang how to choose people, taught her how to deal with people, how to maintain her identity and put on airs, and Yang benefited a lot.
Two servants were soon added to the family.
With everything arranged properly, Yang and Huo Erhuai felt a lot more relaxed. In their spare time, they would learn to read from Nian'er, and they would keep track of the family accounts and the rents of Zhuangzi and various fields, and Huo Erhuai's tenancy contracts.
Huai will also watch it.
When Mrs. Zheng came to visit her home with her several children, she didn't dare to recognize Mrs. Yang when she saw her.
They are obviously the same person, but why do they look different? How come her temperament, words and demeanor make her look like the maid next to the wife?
"Where did you find this grandma next to you? I'm going to buy one too." Ms. Zheng was very jealous and couldn't help but peek at Ma Ma.
For some reason, she didn't dare to look directly at Mother Ma. She was obviously a servant, but she felt oppressed when she looked at her.
Now that the Yang family has undergone such a change, it must be the function of this Granny Ma.
She also wants a nanny like this, and now her family can afford to hire servants.
Ms. Yang didn't say much about Grandma Ma's origins. In fact, she didn't know much about Grandma Ma's past.
He enthusiastically told Mr. Zheng about his experience: "Let me tell you, there are all kinds of people in the human world. If you want to buy a satisfactory servant, you have to be able to choose... There are also powerful and capable people, but the price
It’s also high. If the master can’t suppress a capable servant, he will also bite the master..."
Mrs. Zheng fell in love with the Huo family more and more.
Unconsciously, I learned a lot from Yang. Grandma Ma saw that she had a good character and a good heart, so she was willing to give her a few pointers when she saw her.
Yu Jiang and Zheng's youngest son, Yu Guo, also likes the Huo family. He is more than a year older than An An and likes to play with this younger brother.
My younger brother's house not only has a lot of toys, but also delicious cakes and delicious drinks. Every time I play, I can't bear to go home. I wish I could grow up in the Huo family.
And there is Gong Ziyi who wishes he could grow up in the Huo family. He has been urged to do so by letters from his family many times, but he is still staying in the capital.
