The voice didn't continue.
Then, instead, there was a sharp woman's curse: "You old slave, you cheated on your master by cheating on you. Pooh, you still drink water, honestly wait to be sold."
"Mother, just give her a sip of water. If you torture her to death, it won't be good for Master Hou to blame you." A young girl's voice came out.
"She did that kind of thing, it's fine if the Marquis didn't strip her, and I blame her. Besides, I didn't torment her, she just couldn't survive because of her weak constitution, so I can't blame me." Woman His tone was harsh.
"mother--"
"Okay, okay, I want to feed you, but I won't go."
"it is good."
No other sounds came from the room.
On the contrary, Guanshi Liu kept waving his hands in front of Xiao Lian, and had been calling Xiao Lian for a long time: "Young Master Lian, Young Master Lian? Why are you so dazed?"
Xiao Lian came back to his senses, and grabbed Guanshi Liu's hand suddenly: "Who is she? Who is that woman in the woodshed?"
"Which one? Could it be that even the young master has taken a fancy to Cai Ling?" Guanshi Liu was not angry, but instead smiled: "It's easy to say that I have a crush on her. Most of the servants in the mansion have been bought by me. As long as the young master can buy a boatload of crabs If they are all sold to the Hou Mansion, they will be my distinguished guests. I want to arrange Cai Ling to serve Young Master Lian, how dare she refuse."
Xiao Lian didn't treat the servants as human beings when he said these words, Xiao Lian felt contemptuous in his heart, but didn't show it on his face, and said, "I mean the one who shouted for water."
Liu Guanshi suddenly realized, "She is just an old slave who has the audacity to steal things from the Marquis. The Marquis was furious and ordered her to be locked up in the firewood room, but he didn't say what to do with it."
"Old slave? An old man from the Hou Mansion?"
"I heard Hou Ye said that she used to serve his wife. What does Mr. Lian ask?"
"It's nothing, I'm just curious." Xiao Lian felt relieved.If that person has been serving his wife all the time, he should not be his mother.Mother served Jiang Chen.
Liu Guanshi smiled: "If there's nothing else, let's go into the house and discuss it?"
"Please."
The two left the firewood room and continued to walk towards Guanshi Liu's house.
Along the way, many servants saluted Guanshi Liu.
Xiao Lian asked thoughtfully: "Guan Liu manages so many servants?"
"Where, I'm just in charge of buying and selling servants and purchasing supplies in the mansion. They always come to me." Guanshi Liu said so, but smiled smugly.
"Brother Liu is in charge of the business of servants in the mansion?" Xiao Lian immediately stopped after hearing this.If you can make friends with him, can you buy your mother directly from him?
"good."
"Dare to ask Brother Liu, can you accommodate me and let my younger brother buy a woman from the Hou Mansion?"
Unexpectedly, Liu Guanshi showed embarrassment: "Brother Lian, it's not that I'm not accommodating, it's because the Marquis Mansion has regulations. Even if the people in the mansion sell it, they have to sell it to other places. Brother Lian is a rich man, so he should know that the big family The rules. If you don’t sell the servants who know the basics far away, there is no guarantee that there will be someone who will slander the master.”
"Really?" Xiao Lian was a little anxious because of the tight schedule.
"Why does a man have no wife? Brother Lian, why should he care so much about a lowly maidservant? If brother Lian is really in a hurry, brother will arrange for you today and ask Cailing to accompany you well." Steward Liu lightly pestered Xiao Lian with his arm. All of a sudden, he showed a smile that a man could understand.
"Brother Liu, don't make fun of me again." Xiao Lian blushed and took a quick step forward.This manager Liu didn't accept the move, it seems that he has to work harder.
The most urgent task is to make a deal with the Hou Mansion first, and let Guanshi Liu taste some sweetness.Put some honey on his mouth, and it will be easier to talk.
After the two entered the room, they had a good discussion about the delivery time and price.Liu Guanshi was urged by the banquet in the Hou's mansion, and urgently needed a large number of fat and yellow crabs, and Xiao Lian deliberately made friends with him, which made the crab business go smoothly.
It's just that Xiao Lian intentionally prolongs the delivery time and has more opportunities to go in and out of the Hou's mansion, so he deliberately exaggerates the difficulties.The two finally agreed that Xiao Lian would send a carriage of crabs to the Hou's Mansion every day, and the Hou's Mansion would accept them all according to the order.
After discussing the business, Xiao Lian got today's payment, and once again brought up the matter of buying the servant of the Hou's mansion with Liu Guanshi.
Liu Guanshi still pushes back and forth: "Even my brother, I'm also a servant, and I can't break the regulations of the Marquis Mansion if I speak lightly. If this matter is to be done, the master must speak."
Xiao Lian asked him what he should do.
Liu Guanshi mentioned every word that Lord Hou loves crabs, but only said that he must work hard on crabs.Inside and outside the words, I also want to find out the details of Xiao Lian, and find out his secret to keeping crabs well and abundantly.
Lian Xiao said that the crabs were raised in his pond.Guanshi Liu knew that this matter would be of great benefit, so he wanted to inquire about it.Unexpectedly, this person has a strict mouth, and he always declines on the grounds that the family secrets cannot be passed on.
Liu Guanshi was forced to boast: "Hou Ye loves to eat crabs the most. If you offer this method, I can recommend one or two for you. Maybe you can ask Hou Ye for that woman in person."
Xiao Lian was just talking nonsense to win Guanshi Liu's trust. How can there be any secret method of raising crabs?If he can really exchange his mother with the method of raising crabs, he will find it no matter how difficult it is.
Hearing this, he had no choice but to excuse that the matter was too big, and he had to send the calligrapher to discuss one or two, as a way to delay the army.
Xiao Lian hurried back to ask Bai Jiao if there was a way to raise crabs, so he didn't stay long. After saying goodbye to Butler Liu, he took the two empty barrels he brought and got into the carriage waiting for him at the door.
A lie can be broken with a poke.
In order not to reveal his secrets, Xiao Lian paid a little attention to the rear when he returned, and saw a sneaky man riding a donkey behind the carriage.He asked the coachman to drive faster and take a longer detour, and after a while, he got rid of the follower.
Xiao Lian took advantage of this time to change out of the newly bought winter clothes in the car, put on the old clothes again, and paid the money to get off the car early when there was still a distance from Tong Shan Tang.
Now, the Hou Mansion can no longer find him.Xiao Lian breathed a sigh of relief.
But thinking of Bai Jiao, other worries arose in his heart.
He still remembered Bai Jiao's angry little expression this morning when he was treated as his son, and now he wants to ask him the secret method of raising crabs, and I'm afraid it won't work if he doesn't make him happy.
Xiao Lian looked around, and when he saw a dried fruit shop nearby, he frowned and thought about it.
Got it!
Then, instead, there was a sharp woman's curse: "You old slave, you cheated on your master by cheating on you. Pooh, you still drink water, honestly wait to be sold."
"Mother, just give her a sip of water. If you torture her to death, it won't be good for Master Hou to blame you." A young girl's voice came out.
