Tang Shiyue took some time to go to town to find a dental shop and buy a suitable person.
She didn't want to buy a little maid, she wanted to buy an older woman who had been married before, and she had better be sharp-tongued and strong-willed. Even if she wasn't as good at scolding as Grandma Sun, at least she couldn't be too bad.
That way, you can not only look after Wang, take care of Xiao Yao'er, or cook, but also help.
Moreover, as he got older, Tang Shirong no longer had to avoid suspicion, and everything was convenient.
But when I went to Yahang and asked, I found that there was no such woman at all. It was not a time of famine, so there were mostly young men and women in Yahang.
Tang Shiyue was a little disappointed.
It was rare for a customer to come to the door, so Ya Shi had already called a row of people, while speaking eloquently: "I'm not telling you, the young men and ladies here are all hard-working and capable, whether they are working on the stove or sweeping the house.
Disciplining you to your satisfaction is much better than buying a wife..."
It was the first time for Tang Shiyue to have dental hygiene. She was a little curious and looked up.
She saw a dozen men and women standing side by side in front of her. They were not as ragged as she had imagined, with sallow complexions and thin muscles. They all looked pretty good. Their clothes were at least clean and tidy. They ranged from six to seven years old to thirteen or fourteen years old.
Tang Shiyue only scanned around to satisfy his curiosity.
However, Qi Jing stepped forward and gently squeezed the shoulder of one of them, then asked him to stretch out his hand and looked at his hand.
Then he asked: "Have you ever practiced martial arts?"
The man looked to be thirteen or fourteen years old, and there was a relatively obvious black birthmark on his face, from his right cheek to under his right eye.
Upon hearing his question, the man subconsciously turned away, knelt down and replied, "When I was young, I practiced a few moves with the master of the escort agency."
Qi Jing nodded and looked back at Tang Shiyue.
He originally wanted to ask her opinion, but Tang Shiyue understood and immediately cooperated: "Brother, I don't want him, he is so ugly!"
Yaqi said anxiously: "Although he is not very good-looking, he is honest and honest, and he can also use fists and kicks."
Tang Shiyue said: "I'm afraid that you can't do this kind of thing! The more you do, the more trouble you will cause! It's better to not know anything at all!"
She truly disliked it and then asked: "How much money?"
Having a birthmark on your face was considered very unlucky in ancient times, so no one bought it.
The arrogant man didn't dare to have sex anymore, and hesitated for a moment before saying: "I originally got eight taels of silver anyway. Today, when you come back for the first time, I will form a good relationship with you, five taels of silver."
Five taels of silver... only half a catty of wine!
She found that money for "eating" here was really worthless, but in other places, it became very valuable.
In the end, I won four taels of silver.
After getting out of the teeth, Tang Shiyue turned to him and asked, "What's your name?"
The man tilted his head, trying his best to avoid the side with the birthmark: "The younger one's surname is Ren, and his father calls him Da Lang. He has no name."
Modern people have some bad associations with the word "Dalang".
Tang Shiyue didn't call him, but took out two ten copper coins from his arms and asked him, "Do you know how to read?"
Ren Dalang whispered: "I roughly recognize a few words."
I can still read, not bad, not bad, I’ve made money!
Tang Shiyue gave him the copper coins: "We still have something to do. You go find a place to have something to eat. Then go to the city gate to find a mule cart with 'Fu Shou Winery' written on it. Wait for us there."
Ren Dalang was stunned for a moment, then he hurriedly lowered his hands and responded: "Yes."
Tang Shiyue and the two left leisurely.
Escape? It doesn't exist. There is a bond of sale here. Under normal circumstances, no one dares to escape. According to the laws of this dynasty, escaped slaves must be stabbed and married.
While walking, Tang Shiyue asked Qi Jing: "Is he very powerful?"
"Not bad," Qi Jing said: "They should have been practicing for a few years, and their skeletons can be seen. I just want to find someone a little older to teach them, and then I want to increase the age of the martial arts school to see if there is any
Those who have some foundation."
Tang Shiyue smiled and said: "Actually, you just want to be lazy! If you are lazy, stop talking!"
Qi Jing was silent for a moment, then admitted with a smile: "Well, it is really troublesome to teach children, especially those who are disobedient. They really have to talk a lot."
"I knew it!" Tang Shiyue smiled and patted him on the shoulder: "So you have to accept an apprentice. If you have something to do, the apprentice will do his job!"
Qi Jing said, "Let's see first. Disciples are not so easy to accept."
"No," Tang Shiyue said with a smile, "I have a hunch that this person will definitely become your first disciple in the future."
"Why?"
Tang Shiyue said, "Because you and I picked it together!"
"Yes," Qi Jing smiled and said, "You are the blessed lady. With you, all my wishes will come true, and all my dreams will be auspicious."
This guy! He flirted with her again!
Tang Shiyue smiled and said: "Then how old do you want to teach? Didn't you say it's hard to teach when you're older?"
"It can't be done openly, and it's not like teaching them like me, but teaching them some practical things."
After he explained a few sentences, Tang Shiyue understood.
No matter in what era, civilian armed organizations are taboo. It is okay to teach children, but it is not possible to teach adults, especially if you want to teach on a large scale. It can only depend on luck. If you encounter it, you will take it in. How many
Count how many.
The two of them chatted and walked, and found two more hags, but there was no suitable person, so they could only leave a message asking them to notify her, and then walked back.
As expected, Ren Dalang was waiting obediently at the carriage. The little beggar who was helping them watch the carriage sat beside the carriage and stared at him. When he saw her coming, he said: "Tang Xiaolang! This man actually said you bought it!
"
"I bought it!" Tang Shiyue said with a smile, "What's wrong?"
"You really bought it!" said the little beggar, "Why did you buy one like this! You might as well buy me! I'm just a flower at the gate of the city!"
Tang Shiyue laughed out loud: "What do I want a flower for? What I want is something that can be used!"
"It's me who's so useful?!" said the little beggar: "I can run fast and I can fight, so I'm so useful!"
Qi Jing suddenly said: "How many moves can you take to defeat him?"
When Ren Dalang raised his head, he realized that he was being asked. He puffed up his chest and said, "One move."
The little beggar laughed out loud: "Blow it, you can! Give me another move! I didn't say that, I grew up on the street, and no one has been able to beat me in fights since I was a child..."
He kept boasting and praying: "Try it!"
Ren Dalang turned around and knocked down the little beggar with one swift move.
The movement was so fast that Tang Shiyue didn't even see it clearly!
The little beggar was also shocked. Then he got up and was knocked down again...
Such is the case 5. The little beggar recognized it, lay on the ground and said: "Brother, you are hiding so much!"
Tang Shiyue smiled and said: "Now you know, you can only be a flower at the gate of the city!"
The little beggar lamented continuously and came up with all kinds of tricks.
Tang Shiyue threw him two ten copper coins and said with a smile: "Okay, stop playing tricks. I hurt you from the beating today. Go and eat something good."
The little beggar quickly turned over and jumped up, taking the copper coin in his hand: "Thank you, Tang Xiaolang, call me next time when you see the car!"
Tang Shiyue smiled and waved his hands, and then the three of them got into the car. Qi Jing asked: "Da Lang, can you drive the car?"
Ren Dalang nodded, and Qi Jing let him drive the car. Tang Shiyue still felt awkward calling him Dalang, so she said, "Can I give you a name?"
Ren Dalang said anxiously: "Thank you very much, Mr. Xiao Lang."
Tang Shiyue thought for a while: "There is a poem called 'Thousands of blows, but still strong, Ren, east, west, north, south, wind'. Isn't it very powerful? You see your surname is Ren, why don't you call me Ren Dongxi or Ren Nanbei
, it’s your choice!”
Qi Jing: "..."
He helplessly held his forehead and said to him: "From now on, your name will be Ren Dong."
Ren Dong said anxiously: "Thank you so much, Mr. Lang, for giving me your name."
Tang Shiyue saw that when he spoke, he always avoided the side of the birthmark, and couldn't help but pour a bowl of chicken soup: "Rendong, I just said you were ugly just to lower the price. I didn't really think you were ugly.
What a person looks like is determined by nature, and a grown man doesn’t rely on his reputation to make a living, so he doesn’t need to care about what others say.”
Qi Jing glanced at her, his mouth slightly curved.
Ren Dong was also startled. He wanted to turn his head and look at her, but he didn't dare.
The mule cart traveled very smoothly. As soon as they entered the village, they saw Tang Dongzi running towards him: "Master Tang, you are back! The fourth master is looking for you everywhere! Ask me to welcome you back here!" (To be continued)
