After leading three long-term workers and a girl back home, Tian Minyan and his family accepted everyone's greetings in the yard, got to know each other again, and introduced themselves to the family.
Tian Minyan asked Xie Chengzhong to lead Zhou Gui and three long-term workers to the house at the head of the village to settle down, and they would give instructions tomorrow, while Xiaoxing stayed at the old house and temporarily arranged to live in the guest room.
Seeing that Xiaoxing was dirty, Tian Minyan asked her to freshen up first, while she was pulled into the west wing by her family.
"You didn't mean to only buy long-term workers, but why did you add another girl?" Luo Shi's face was full of confusion: "Nanny, this child is only eight years old, what can she do?"
"That sister Xiaoxing is not much older than me." Xiaowu looked confused.
"Mom, dad, don't worry, listen to what my daughter has to say." Tian Minrui was very calm. He firmly believed that everything Tian Minyan did had her thoughts and intentions.
Tian Minyan smiled and nodded to Tian Minrui, and said: "As I said before, now our family has more land and more work. Some things are too busy for me and I can't worry too much. Mom is getting older.
, it’s also good to buy a girl to do the work, mother doesn’t have to work too hard, and besides, this girl only cost one tael of silver, she is young and can’t eat much.”
"How can I, your child, be as noble as you say? It's only more than four months old. I thought I was still working in the fields when I gave birth to you." When Luo Shi heard that he bought it for her, he immediately became angry.
One sentence.
"Mom, today is different from the past. In the past, our brothers and sisters were obedient and well-behaved and didn't make much noise. But now, this child is too noisy and unstable. Although it's not a serious problem now, the doctor said that if he can't work hard, he won't
Hard work, have you forgotten?"
"but..."
"That's it, we have bought everyone back. My daughter is right, it will be easier for you if I help with the work." When it comes to Luo's business, Tian Huairen is very easy to talk to.
"It's so lucky. Our family is not a big family. Now we want to buy a maid, no matter where..." Luo Shi was still a little awkward. This happened so suddenly.
How long had it been? In less than half a year, her life had completely changed. She divided her family, bought land, and now had a maid to serve her. All of this made her feel too unreal, like a dream.
of.
"We are just a maid now. Our family will get better and better in the future, and we will have more talents to buy by then." Tian Minyan said with a smile: "Mom, don't think too much, just peacefully raise the baby.
Just embroider some flowers on weekdays and enjoy yourself as a grandma."
"Only your mouth can talk." Luo Shi was amused by her and reached out to pinch her mouth.
"girl."
The family was talking when a mosquito-like sound came from the door to the west wing, and several people looked over.
After washing up, Xiaoxing wore Tian Minyan's old coarse clothes. She wrung the corners of her clothes with her little hands and stood at the door timidly looking at them. After washing her face, she had pretty features, an oval face, a pair of big clear eyes, and a small mouth.
It's white, but it also has some color. She will definitely be a little beauty when she grows up.
Tian Minyan accidentally saw the two brothers Tian Minrui staring at Xiaoxing without blinking, and suddenly her heart moved, so she invited her in.
"Little
Leng sat on the kang with a sullen face, no longer showing the compassion and gentleness he had seen at first.
Xiaoxing was so frightened that she knelt down and said, "Girl, Xiaoxing doesn't dare. Xiaoxing will never betray the Lord and be ungrateful."
"Remember what you said today." Tian Minyan's face did not relax and she said indifferently: "Do you know why there are so many girls in the human tooth market today, but I only bought you? Because your eyes are stubborn and not
Admit defeat, that’s what I like about you. But what I want to tell you is that sex is good, but it depends on the person. I will make it clear today."
"As a servant, you must have the self-consciousness of a servant, understand your identity, and know clearly what you should think about and what you should not think about. If you want to climb a high branch, climb onto the master's bed and fly to the branch, I advise you
I should give up my heart early and leave this family." Tian Minyan stared at Xiaoxing and said mercilessly: "Our Tian family will never tolerate those who want to seduce the master and climb into his bed, nor will we tolerate it.
Once discovered, they will be immediately taken away or even beaten to death."
As soon as she finished speaking, not only Xiaoxing's face turned pale, but even Tian Huairen, Luo Shi and others were stunned, looking at Tian Minyan with very unfamiliar eyes.
Wanting to understand the meaning of Tian Minyan's words, Xiaoxing's little face turned from white to red, and then from red to white. She bit her lips tightly and said: "Girl, Xiaoxing was not sold by her aunt, but by her
Promised to a sixty-year-old man to be an adopted daughter, Xiaoxing ran away after hearing this. Xiaoxing once swore to her parents' souls that she would never be a concubine in this life, and would rather marry a poor man than a concubine of a rich family. If it violates
I swear, I won’t die a good death, and my parents won’t be able to live in peace underground.”
"Don't worry, girl, Xiaoxing knows what's good, and what the girl is worried about will never happen." Xiaoxing straightened the joystick and looked straight at Tian Minyan.
Tian Minyan looked at her intently. Xiaoxing remained motionless. Seeing that her eyes were straight and not evasive, Tian Minyan smiled.
"Get up." She said with a smile: "Grandma is pregnant. You will have to worry more about family matters in the future. There is nothing to do now. You can go down and rest first. It will be the same if I call you if something happens. By the way.
, this main room, if I don’t call you, don’t come in.”
Although it looked clean, she still had to observe it for a while to see if there was no hidden disease before using it.
"Girl, I understand." Xiaoxing breathed a sigh of relief, stood up and walked out.
After she left, Tian Minyan looked at her family. Seeing their dull and surprised expressions, she smiled and said, "Dad, mother and brother can't stand it? Do you think I'm too cruel and ruthless to show force to a child?"
"Nanny..." Tian Huairen moved his lips, not knowing what to say.
Undoubtedly, Tian Minyan's sudden commotion today made him feel so strange and confused.
Although Tian Minyan is a bit shrewd, she is kind-hearted, treats her elders with respect and is friendly to her brothers. Tian Huairen has never seen her with such a cold side. Her aura is just like those of the legendary ladies from wealthy families, which makes people a little scared and frightened.
Tian Huairen is a honest and honest person, with some small-farmer consciousness. Even though his family hired long-term workers, he still has not broken away from that small-farmer consciousness in his bones. In his opinion, the girls who have long-term workers are all the same, and he has no special sense of superiority.
"Nanny, although our family is doing well now, it was already a blessing for us to have long-term workers and servants. I think back then, we were also beaten and scolded by others. We have experienced that kind of grievance. Comparing our feelings, they just lived the same life.
Our family has come through hardships, so why bother..." Tian Huairen sighed, looked at Tian Minyan and said, "Nanny, we can't forget our roots, and we can't be those treacherous and evil people."
"Dad, servants are servants. It's better for me to explain my words clearly today than to say it later when they do something wrong. As the saying goes, there is nothing without rules. Now that our family wants to live well, we must set up rules.
." Tian Minyan suppressed her smile and said slowly: "Our family may be a poor family, but it will definitely get better and better in the future. She is a child now, but people will grow up and change. There is no guarantee.
Will her heart become bigger in the future? If she wants to be your little wife in the future, what will happen to my mother? How should you deal with yourself, dad? Do you want to wait until the scandal comes out to deal with it? Dad, you are not afraid of the cold anymore.
My mother’s heart.”
When Luo Shi heard this, his expression suddenly changed, and he looked at Tian Huairen with a somewhat complicated look.
Although he is only in his thirties, he has given birth to several children after all. He is old and yellow. It is often said that men become bad when they have money. Will his father be like this in the future? And he is not comparable to those people.
A young girl?
It must be said that Tian Minyan's words deeply aroused Luo's sense of crisis.
"Here, you kid, how could I..." Tian Huairen blushed and said, "She's just a kid, that's what you think?"
He turned to look at Luo Shi, and when he saw her expression changing unpredictably, he suddenly became anxious: "Sanniang, don't listen to this girl's nonsense. Don't you know what kind of person I am? How can I support a little wife?"
"Dad, even if she is a child, what if the servant we buy in the future is a big girl? Dad is not very old, he is in his thirties and is in his prime. Besides, we always have to think about my brother and Xiao Wu.
." Tian Min said earnestly: "Brother and Xiaowu will have a bright future in the future, but they can't be ruined by these unsightly things."
Speaking of the two men in the family, Tian Huairen and Luo Shi were shocked and their expressions became serious.
Tian Huairen may not have to worry about it, but the two boys will be the backbone of the family in the future. If they say something unpleasant to the servants, it will be really ruined.
Thinking of this, Luo Shi's face became solemn, and his back straightened subconsciously. Nannan was right, her son was her life's support, and she would never let those nasty things happen to them.
"Brother, Xiaowu, you also have to correct your posture and know your identity. A servant is a servant. You can care and be kind, but you can't condone." Tian Minyan looked at the two brothers with serious faces: "Treat servants
, we must give both kindness and power, we must know how to control, we must beat and scold when we should, we must climb away when we should, and we must never tolerate them.”
No one can guarantee that a person will never change. It is better to talk about the bad things in advance and take precautions before they happen than to remedy the situation after it happens.
It has to be said that Tian Minyan taught the entire family an important lesson today. And in the future, the men of the Tian family will also be glad that Tian Minyan made such a show of force today, so that they will not be helpless and at a loss when encountering such a thing.
