Transformed into a mother of four children: Eating meat every meal during a famine

"Why do you think women dress themselves up?"

After Zhao Zhaodi left, Su Yunluo asked Bai Wei.

Bai Wei thought for a moment and said, "Before, I always thought that women dressed up beautifully in order to marry a good man. But after following you, I gradually understood that no matter how well a woman marries, it is not as good as her own ability. Dressing up beautifully is to prove that she is living a good life."

Su Yunluo raised his eyebrows. This insight was quite unique.

When I think about it, there doesn't seem to be anything wrong.

"Everyone is an independent individual and does not need to prove anything to anyone. The meaning of everything we do, besides for survival, I hope it is because we like it! Of course, it is quite difficult to achieve this." Especially in the current era and environment!

"But it's okay, we can work together."

Su Yunluo's words seemed to be spoken to Bai Wei, but also seemed to be spoken to himself.

Inspired by the Zhao Zhaodi incident, Su Yunluo directly tore up the recruitment notice that was almost finished!

He put the silver in his arms and said, "You take care of the store, I'll be out for a while."

Su Yunluo walked around the street by himself but didn't find his target.

So she took the initiative to go to the Sun family to find someone.

Butler Sun greeted Su Yunluo warmly: "Doctor Su, are you here to see Madam? I'll take you in right away. Madam said that as long as you come, you will be taken in directly without notifying her."

Su Yunluo smiled and waved his hand: "No, I came here specifically to see you."

"Find me?"

Su Yunluo told the housekeeper that he wanted to buy a few maids.

After listening to this, Steward Sun nodded and said, "Only a small part of the buying and selling of maids is done directly. Most of them go through middlemen. Do you want me to take you with me?"

"That would be perfect."

"Then wait for me for a moment. I'll tell you and then I'll go with you."

"Then trouble you."

"Why are you being so polite to me? You are our Sun family's great benefactor. It is my old servant's blessing to be able to do things for you."

Butler Sun went into the mansion for the first time, and when he came out, the servants had already prepared the carriage.

Before getting on the carriage, Butler Sun said to Su Yunluo respectfully, "Divine Doctor Su, after my wife knew about this, she said that if you can't find a suitable one over there, you can come to our Sun Mansion to choose. You can take any servant in the mansion away directly as long as you like him."

"Please thank Madam for me first." Su Yunluo had directly rejected the maids and servants given to her by Madam Sun a few days ago. Now she has to buy a maid herself. She wondered if Madam Sun would feel uncomfortable.

If I had known this earlier, I shouldn’t have come to see Butler Sun!

However, things have already happened, and Su Yunluo will not change his plan.

Get on the carriage and go with Butler Sun to find the middleman.

What Su Yunluo didn’t expect was that... this middleman was actually a government official.

Thanks to the introduction of Butler Sun, many processes went very quickly.

After roughly understanding the requirements, someone took Su Yunluo to pick people.

These people were either sold by their families or committed crimes and their entire families were demoted into slavery.

Until someone buys them, they will be gathered together to work in one place in exchange for a little bit of pitiful food to survive.

What Su Yunluo needs is a girl in her teens, who should be smart, but most importantly, loyal!

The little girls were arranged to make clothes together. They were placed in a yard and had to do needlework for more than ten hours a day.

No one wants to stay here for a long time, so every time they hear that someone is coming to buy them, they try their best to show themselves.

Su Yunluo read the background introduction of each person and had a general understanding of these people.

But these background introductions are too simple and you can't tell anything at all.

At the same time, people’s hearts are hidden in their stomachs. You can know a person’s face but not his heart!

But these are not difficult for Su Yunluo!

She took out a white flour bun from her sleeve, cut it into slices with a knife, and gave a slice to each of the ten people selected in the first round.

"I want to see who of you eats the most elegantly. Let's start." As soon as Su Yunluo finished speaking, the little girls began to eat the steamed buns, one more elegant than the other.

At the same time, ten noisy voices appeared in Su Yunluo's ears.

Voice 1: Elegant? Eating a steamed bun is more elegant? Back then, when my father did nothing wrong, the steamed buns were given to the servants.

Voice 2: Why do we have to eat steamed buns elegantly? Is there any particular reason for this?

Voice 3: This steamed bun is so delicious! I haven't eaten such delicious steamed buns for a long time.

Voice 4: So this is what white flour steamed buns taste like! So delicious! I can’t bear to finish them all!

Voice 5: What did she want to do by buying us back? She looks so young, but her every move is so stylish. Is she a maid in some rich family? I hope I can become someone like her in the future.

Voice 6: If she chooses me, what will happen to my sister? Can she choose my sister first?

Voice 7: I want to be a concubine of a rich man. I wonder what his husband looks like?

Voice 8: I'm lucky today. I have free white flour buns, but they're a little too little.

Voice 9: This steamed bun... isn't it poisonous? This woman doesn't look like a good person at first glance.

Voice 10: Can you give me some more? I'm so hungry... Can I ask her for it? She doesn't look like a bad person, so she should give it to me, right? But what should I do? I don't dare...

Su Yunluo ruled out sound one, sound seven and sound nine.

Then he asked the remaining seven people a question: "If you see a strange child fall into the water in winter, but you can't swim, what would you do?"

Voice 2 replied: "I would jump in and save people without hesitation."

Voice Three replied: "I...I will go and call for help."

Voice 4 replied: "I...I will also jump in to save people."

Voice 5 replied: "I will first check if there are any long branches around that can be used to pull the person up. If not, I will shout for help. If that doesn't work, I will think of other ways."

Voice Six replied: "I...I will call for help, shout loudly, and attract other people's attention."

Voice 8 replied: "Although I can't swim, I can't just stand by and watch someone die. I will jump in and save him without hesitation. Otherwise, I will feel guilty for the rest of my life."

Voice 10 replied: "I...but I can swim, I can...jump in and save the person..."

Su Yunluo listened carefully to the answers of the seven people, and finally chose three, five, six, and ten.

The three people who were not selected expressed their dissatisfaction.

Number 8 even questioned Su Yunluo angrily: "Is there anything wrong with us sacrificing ourselves to save others?"

"There's nothing wrong with that! But it's not what I need!"

"So, you are a selfish person, right?"
