Chapter 225 Choosing a Maid

When Ke'er saw this, he immediately ran over, but instead of running towards Xiaoya, he had already put away the candy in his hand and ran to stand next to his mother.

Xia Qiyue originally thought that Ke'er would help Xiaoya beg her to buy her mother's, after all, she showed so much love for Xiaoya just now.

But to everyone's surprise, she didn't do this, she just ran back to Xia Qiyue and stood next to her without saying a word.

Xia Qiyue was curious about what this little girl was thinking, so she lowered her head and asked, "Ke'er, what do you think? Do you still want this little girl?"

But Ke'er shook his head, "Mom, she doesn't like to go with Ke'er, so Ke'er should find someone else who likes to go with Ke'er!"

When he said this, his face still looked disappointed. After he finished speaking, he lowered his head and stopped looking at the kneeling little girl.

Xiaoya panicked. She quickly let go of her mother's hand and kowtowed again, "Miss, Xiaoya doesn't want to go with you!"

But Ke'er raised his head and looked at her, "Why are you bringing your mother with you when you go to play with me?"

Everyone was in a mess, Xia Qiyue was even more messy, and she even made up a lot of excuses for Ke'er's actions.

I almost thought that Ke'er was a genius child, but she didn't expect that this little girl only thought that he and the others were here to invite children to play at her home.

The atmosphere was tense, and even Xiaoya's mother had no time to ask for Xia Qiyue.

"Little lady, we have to say that the one with the strongest physical strength here is Xiaoya's mother. If she is brought back to be a rough lady, her age is also the most suitable. She is just thirty-two years old, which is quite young! And they signed

It's time for death, you can take them away with them along with their deeds of sale!"

Hearing this, Xia Qiyue raised her head in confusion, "Is there anyone who is not on the day of death?"

Mrs. Ya hurriedly explained. It turns out that there are some with one-year, three-year, and five-year terms. Such maids will leave the house when the time limit expires and can marry freely.

The situation is different for those who have signed a death date. They will always be servants of the master's family, with no chance of redemption. Marriage is also decided by the master's family. It is equivalent to giving birth to children, that is, the master's family will give them to others as concubines.

They also only have appointments.

Xia Qiyue nodded, "Okay, then I want the mother and daughter!"

Fat Ya Po was so happy that she quickly nodded and wrote it down.

"Ling'er, you can choose one too! Choose the one you like!"

Strictly speaking, Ling'er was also a girl sold to her family, and her name was not included in the household registration. However, she treated Ling'er as her daughter, so she had to choose her as the personal girl.

Ling'er nodded obediently, then looked at the crowd for a long time, but couldn't choose anyone.

Xia Qiyue somewhat understood Ling'er's temper. She had no independent opinions and was hesitant to make choices. She was like this every time and found it difficult to make a choice.

So she pointed at the tallest of the girls in front of her, "Ling'er, what do you think of that girl? How many years older than you are she can take care of others!"

After saying that, she suddenly realized, what does it mean to be able to take care of others when you are older? It is not about choosing a husband.

But when I think about it, it is indeed like this. When you are older, you will indeed be able to take care of others, which is good.

Ling'er looked over, and then there was a little crack in her eyes. She actually fell in love with the youngest one. She seemed to be about the same age as Ke'er, but she was more cute.

But her mother made the choice for her, and she didn't dare to refute, so she could only nod.

Nine-year-old Xiaocao was selected, and she was very happy. She didn’t have any family here. She was brought here by her parents. From the time she was sold here, she had been longing for someone to buy her. Today is finally the day.

The wait is here.

She has been in the dental shop for two years. Many of the buyers who came to buy her were dissatisfied that she was a child and were unwilling to buy her. In addition, she was not that good-looking. Although she was not ugly, she was not really good-looking.

So I only stayed for two years and was tortured enough.

She quickly ran forward and saluted, "Thank you, Madam, Xiaocao! Thank you, Miss!"

Yabozi usually gives them some rules, so Xiaocao behaves properly.

"Get up. From now on, you will follow Miss Ling'er and become her personal maid!" Xia Qiyue said with a smile. She liked smart children, so she chose smart ones for her two daughters' personal maids.

Little did he know that Ling'er didn't like the little girl she chose for herself, so she lowered her head and said nothing.

Xia Qiyue didn't notice it, because Ling'er usually looked like this, lowering her head and saying nothing a lot of the time, so she didn't pay attention.

"Xuan'er, it's your turn!" Xia Qiyue called her son.

Xuan'er, who had been standing aside and wondering what he was thinking, immediately raised his head when his mother called her.

"Go! Choose one to come back and be your companion and reading companion, reading with you!"

When I heard it, it could be used as a reading companion for the young master. The eyes of the five boys waiting aside were filled with longing.

Xuan'er walked over and after looking at it for a while, he asked a question.

"Which of you can read?"

The five boys looked at each other, and finally shook their heads, "No!"

What a joke, if they were literate, how could they still be sold?

Xuan'er turned around and left, returning to Xia Qiyue: "Mother, just choose one for me. It doesn't matter who you choose!"

Xia Qiyue was amused by her son. Ever since he bought the book, his only thoughts were on books by saints and sages.

She didn't force her son, and she actually chose one for her son, and she was very smart about it.

I chose a little guy standing in the middle. He looked about six or seven years old. This age was the most suitable, as he could take care of me and accompany me in my studies.

The personal maids and attendants of the three children all have one characteristic, that is, they are clever. They all appear to be three or four years older than her children.

After finishing the selection of the three children, Mrs. Fat Ya happily gave their deeds of sale to Xia Qiyue.

"My dear lady, these three children are all signed to die. Here is their deed of sale! Please take a look at it!"

Xia Qiyue didn't ask about the price, and Mrs. Ya didn't mention it either. She was rich and could afford it, so what was she going to do? We'd finish the purchase in a while and we'd calculate it together.

Next, Xia Qiyue chose two maids who usually served tea and water. They were about the same height and not outstanding in appearance, but they were the two most beautiful ones here. She originally planned to choose a personal maid for her sister, but in reality

I didn't like it, so I had to talk about it later.

The rough lady had a little girl, so Xia Qiyue picked another woman in her early thirties, named Mei Niang. She was carefree and alone, and she and the little girl were responsible for the rough work in the yard.

A total of seven people were selected to stand aside.

"Have you made your choice, little lady?" the fat-toothed old woman saw this and asked.

Xia Qiyue shook her head, "Do you have a boy of thirteen or fourteen who is suitable to be a book boy?"

Xia Qiyue thought of her younger brother. If Lin Jianxin came to be a wife, she would like her younger brother to study too.

"Yes, yes, yes!"

Soon, Xia Qiyue chose one, and there were eight in total.

"How much money is it in total?" Xia Qiyue asked.

"The three young ones are worth ten taels of silver each, the maid and the mother-in-law are worth fifteen taels of silver each, and the young man is worth twenty taels of silver. The total adds up to one hundred and ten taels!"
