Chapter 30, Wang Maner
"Are you talking to me?"
Daohua pointed at herself with a look of astonishment, and looked around for a moment, and found that the girl was staring straight at her, with prayer and hope flashing in her eyes.
Selling oneself to bury the father, according to the routine, shouldn’t you choose the son, the master, or something?
Hearing Daohua’s question, the girl immediately began to kowtow, and the ground slammed loudly: "Please beg the girl to buy me!"
Daohua didn't speak, she looked at her carefully, only to find that the person's eyes were very bright, and the eyebrows revealed the firmness and stubbornness that was different from the ordinary daughter's family.
The people around looked over, laughing wantonly and pointing.
Yan Wentao was a little nervous, pulled Daohua behind him, looked at the selling girl who was still kowtow, and said hurriedly: "Don’t kowtow, it’s cold, don’t kowtow, we don’t have a shortage of people. Other people!"
After finishing speaking, he hurriedly pulled Daohua and quickly crowded out the crowd.
At this time, the Yan family’s carriage also arrived.
"Isn't it cold outside, don't hurry up in the car!" Old Lady Yan's voice came from the carriage.
Hearing this, Yan Wentao hugged Daohua’s squeaky nest and carried her to the carriage.
Before entering the car, Daohua glanced back at the girl who had sold her to bury her father, and she happened to meet the girl's unwillingness to take back her eyes.
"Hey"
In the carriage, Daohua was silent for a while, before the carriage started, she looked at Mrs. Li: "Mother, there is no maid by my side, or, shall we buy that girl?"
She knew that Mrs. Li had been looking for a maid for her during this period of time. After all, Ping Tong was the maid by her side and had to be responsible for many things and could not follow her all the time.
Mrs. Li did not immediately object.
It’s just a maid, and the Yan family can still afford it.
However, she hesitated to wait by her daughter's side.
Glancing at the old lady Yan, Mrs. Li thought for a while and said: "Did you think about it? Our family only has a servant for the young master girl. If you choose her, you can't change it in the future."
Inaba nodded.
She just took a look. The girl had big knuckles, and she was used to doing work.
The girl next to her does not need to be too smart, as long as she is obedient and knows how to work.
Ms. Li saw that Mrs. Yan was silent and did not object, and saw her daughter looking straight at herself, thinking that if her daughter didn't use it well in the future, she just changed the curtain and said something to the driver.
After receiving a signal, Xiao Si immediately took the silver and walked towards the girl.
Mrs. Li: "Let's go, He Wu will take care of this."
Do not worry, she raised the curtain and looked back.
Seeing that the selling girl left with the servants at home, she lowered the curtain.
"You!"
The old lady Yan nodded Daohua’s forehead, "When can you change your nosy problem?"
Daohua took the old lady's arm: "I didn't want to do anything more, but she spoke to me and kowtowed to me. I can't ignore it." In fact, the girl was stubborn and reluctant to give up. Her eyes touched her, and she couldn't help but want to help.
County government backyard.
Mrs. Li took Mrs. Yan, Daohua, and Sanfang to visit Zhuangzi and bought back a maid who sold her to bury her father. It was soon known to others.
Due to the events of the previous two days, even if someone is dissatisfied, they dare not say it.
That evening, after having dinner, Daohua returned to her room, and Ping Tong led a maid to walk up.
"Slave please greet the eldest girl!"
Daohua looked at the maid who was kneeling on the ground, she knew who she was for a little while, and asked: "Can your father be buried?"
Wang Man'er nodded: "It's buried, thank you girl for helping me."
Ina Flower: "Okay, don't kneel, get up!"
Wang Man'er stood up slowly, lowered his head, acting without flinching.
Inahua looked at her carefully and cleaned up. She found that the girl was good-looking, standing upright, and she looked a little bit heroic.
"How old are you, what is your name, where do you live? Why do you sell yourself to bury your father? Are there other relatives in the family?"
Wang Man'er: "If you go back to the girl, the slave and maid will be thirteen this year."
Daohua widened her eyes: "You're only thirteen?" She is taller than Pingtong. She always thought she was at least fifteen, six or seven.
Wang Man'er: "The slave servant followed his father and grew taller."
Inaba nodded: "You go ahead."
Wang Man'er: "The slave's name is Wang Man'er. There are no relatives in the family. My father is a dart master, and my mother disappeared shortly after I was born. I have been playing darts with my father all these years and have no family."
Ina Flower: "Since your father is a dart master, he should be good at it, why?"
Even in a disaster year, a capable person should be able to ask for food.
Wang Man'er looked sad: "We encountered refugee riots on the road and the goods were robbed. The cargo owner made my father and them lose money. We couldn't afford it, so the cargo owner asked someone to beat my father and them."
Daohua: "Your father was beaten to death?"
Wang Man'er nodded and shook his head again: "My father was seriously injured after being beaten by the cargo owner. He had no money to treat him. In addition to being hungry, he couldn't afford to be sick." He sobbed as he said this.
Seeing this, Daohua and Hepingtong looked at Wang Man'er with sympathy.
When Wang Man'er's mood slowly calmed down, Daohua asked curiously: "I ask you, there are so many people at the scene today, why did you let me buy you?" She and Yan Wentao were not very luxurious in their dresses. Where is she?
Wang Man'er looked at Daohua: “The eyes of other people looking at me and the other two girls seemed to be looking at the goods. Only the girl really pityed us.”
Following her dad to the north and south over the years, she has also learned a little bit of the ability to look at people.
There are so many people on the scene, only in the eyes of this girl, she can see the unbearable and pity.
It's that love that she took the initiative to sell herself.
Hearing this, Ping Tong smiled: "Your eyes are really good, isn't our eldest girl a kind-hearted person? You will have to take care of you in the future."
Wang Man'er looked at Daohua with a solemn expression: "My father told me that people have to believe in what they say, and the girl helped me bury my father. Naturally, my life belongs to the girl."
Seeing her speak so solemnly, Daohua was stunned for a moment: "It's not as serious as what you said, you just need to do the things I explain to you well."
Pingtong looked at Ina Flower, and smiled: "Girl, would you like to give her a name?"
Inaka: "Don’t she have a name?"
Pingtong: "She has sold herself to the Yan family now. The previous ones will not be counted. Of course, the name must be taken by the new master, which means a new beginning."
Daohua shook her head: "It's fine if she doesn't have a name. If she has one, then call it that way."
After hearing this, Wang Man'er glanced at Daohua gratefully.
Her name was taken by her parents, and her parents’ love for her was entrusted to her, and she did not want to change it at all.
After , Daohua asked Wang Maner something more, and then asked Pingtong to take her down to rest.
Before leaving, Ping Tong looked at Daohua: "Big girl, you also have to rest early. Madam ordered it. Starting tomorrow, you will also follow the second girl and the others to Master Qin for class."
Daohua waved her hand: "I know!"
