Farming: I dressed up as a widow and beat my parents-in-law violently

Yan Xia looked at the two brothers Huang one and Huang two again.

"Are you willing to sign a death contract? If you don't want to, I won't make it difficult for you. If you are willing, you can stay in this shop to help sell pastries and serve as waiters. You can also clean the front of the shop on weekdays. It's not a heavy job, but it's fine. It won’t tire your body.”

Yan Xia actually took a liking to these two brothers at first glance.

Especially Huang Yi, who is affectionate and righteous.

For the sake of his younger brother, he was even willing to sell himself into slavery. In fact, he could open up wasteland and cultivate land by himself and slowly build up a family fortune.

When you have money, you can marry a wife.

Isn’t it better than being a servant?

Huang Yi was not stupid. When he heard Shopkeeper Yan's words, he knew that she had taken a fancy to him.

The last sentence about not being tired made him very moved. His younger brother was in poor health. Even if he was sold to someone else, he wouldn't be able to do any heavy work. If he was tired for the rest of his life, it would probably hinder his longevity.

That's all, after all, he is already twenty-five years old.

Still dreaming about a wife and son.

As long as they work hard, this kind shopkeeper will definitely not treat them harshly.

Huang Yi pulled his younger brother.

Kneeling on the ground.

"Master, we are willing."

The corners of Yan Xia's mouth curled up slightly.

"Well, then just stand at the back, Zou Yaren, and let's settle the score."

Zou Yaren put down the tea cup and took out the booklet from his sleeve.

After recording the list, the price was quoted.

"There are eight people in total. Shopkeeper Yan, you can just give me 25 taels. We will take care of the registration with the government..."

Zou Yaren wanted to explain the prices one by one, but Yan Xia stopped him.

I have to do things quickly, the shop will be open again soon.

She had to move.

After handing the silver to Zou Yaren, he signed the death deed and went to the government office to register. It was already afternoon.

Yan Xia led eight people to visit restaurants and pastry shops, and then took them to meet people.

"You eight can sleep in the backyard of the restaurant. Master Jin Lu will make arrangements for you later."

"As for the name, I will choose it again."

"Huang Yi Huang Er will be changed to Qian Yi Qian Er from now on. Zhang Luzi will be renamed Qian Lu, Gu Xiaomei will be renamed Baomei, and Wang's adopted brother will be renamed Baolan, giving him the surname Yan."

Several people immediately knelt on the ground.

"Thank you, Master, for giving me your name and surname."

Being able to bear the same surname as the master is a first-class honor.

As long as you don't make big mistakes, you can stay here for the rest of your life.

They were so excited that they kowtowed in thanks.

"Get up and don't kneel down every now and then."

"Yes, Master——"

Yan Xia looked at the three old women again.

"As for the three of you, let's call you Nanny from now on. I'll give you the surname Yan, and keep your surname as your first name, with Yu as the middle character. An's name will be changed to Yu'an, and she'll be called Nanny An, and Tao's name will be changed to Yutao, and she'll be called Nanny An. Aunt Tao, the Zhu family changed her name to Yuzhu and called her Aunt Zhu.”

"Thank you, Master, for giving me your name and surname——"

The same kneeling and thanking happened again.

Yan Xia didn't stop him.

"Okay, let Xiaoji take you to buy two changes of clothes, a towel and a basin for washing your face. By the way, we don't have bedding either, so let's buy them together."

Yan Xia handed Xiaoji 20 taels of silver.

Eight people, two sets of inner clothes, two sets of middle clothes, two sets of outer clothes, one set of bedding, one set of toiletries, and two pairs of shoes and socks.

Each person has a budget of about 2 taels, and the remaining money is just in case there is not enough.

"Come on, everyone follow me."

Xiao Ji took the money and went shopping with eight people.

Time was tight and there was no time to buy cloth, so I had to buy ready-made clothes and quilts.

After the others left, Yan Xia went to the restaurant to find her youngest son and asked him to arrange the couple's accommodation.

That night, eight people stayed in the backyard of the restaurant.

Qian Yi, Qian Er and Qian Lu shared a room, the three nuns shared a room, and Baomei Baolan shared a room.

In order to welcome the new arrival, everyone gathered at the restaurant to eat hot pot in the evening.

This time three tables were opened.

The new servants had never eaten such good food before. Except for raising their heads and listening carefully when Yan Xia spoke, they ate without raising their heads the rest of the time, just like locusts passing by.

Yan Xia glanced at it and moved her head away. She actually didn't care.

When she first traveled through time, she had no money and was so hungry that she wanted to eat a wild boar alive.

They are all from the poor.

Who is different?

There is no need to educate others while eating. These slaves are considered the lowest level of people. They have no human rights and no self. Even their lives are controlled by their masters. Yan Xia feels that it is too much if he does not feed them enough.

As they get used to it in the future, their eating posture will improve.

The Yan Xia family's food has always been uniform. Basically, whatever their master eats, the slaves eat.

There are meaty vegetables and fruits every day.

Nutritional balance.

When there was no more food left in the pot and the newcomers were all holding their stomachs in their hands and burping, Yan Xia finally said something to end the meal.

"Okay, let's finish eating. Let's go to bed early after the table is cleared. Remember to take a shower and change clothes for the new arrivals, so as not to neglect the guests tomorrow. I'll work in the pastry shop tomorrow for one penny and two, helping the young master sell Pastries, ordering and delivering meals to the guests on the second floor, cleaning up, etc. The three nuns are first responsible for washing, cooking and washing dishes. When the eldest mistress is about to give birth, they can all work around her. As for Baomei Baolan, tomorrow Start learning how to make pastries, Osmanthus and Wintersweet, you two teach them, do you hear me?"

"Oh, by the way, I will promote Xiaoji to the rank of eldest maid. From now on, I will rely on her to convey my instructions. You must obey her."

There are more and more people in the family, and Yan Xia can't take care of it at all, so he simply leaves it to Xiao Ji.

During this period of time, Xiaoji has been trained by her and is now able to stand alone.

"Yes, Master——"

"I know mother."

"Okay, aunt——"

Everyone responded to Yan Xia together.

Yan Xia nodded slightly when he saw this, and the group returned to the backyard of the pastry shop.

After washing up and going to bed, she specially pulled Xiao Ji and talked for a long time.

In the quiet morning, the dazzling sunshine penetrated the clouds and covered the earth with gold. The air was filled with the unique freshness of spring. Yan Xia stood in the yard brushing her teeth, raising her head slightly and sniffing the air. She could feel that everything was full of life. .

Yesterday, she deliberately did not tell the newcomers the time to start work.

Just wanted to test them.

When she got up, eight people were already in place.

Qian Yi Qian Er was cleaning the house on the second floor, polishing the tables and chairs. It seemed that they came here before dawn. It was probably Xiao Ji who opened the door for them. Xiao Ji always got up early, and the three nuns had already put everything in A change of clothes was washed and hung up to dry, and breakfast was prepared under Xiao Ji's command. It consisted of simple white porridge, scrambled eggs, and four side dishes.

Two maids are learning how to make cakes from Osmanthus and Wintersweet.

All of them are very diligent and worthy of being the ‘elite’ chosen by Zou Ya.

Yan Xia was very satisfied.

After the shop opened, these people were busy in an orderly manner.

In the morning, Yan Xia was rarely free. She was going to find Zou Yaren to help find two experienced stable women. Although she made a lot of money, she didn't have many connections. After all, she had only been here for a short time and had not yet established herself. .

"Jin Fu, keep an eye on the shop. Mom will help Xiao He find two stable women."
