Shen Xi nodded, "I want a maid and mother-in-law, you can take it to see." Song Shangshang added later, "Brother wants to be good at cooking, and mother-in-law wants to be good at cooking."
Shen Xi told the matchmaker again what Song Shangshang said, and the other party smiled, "No problem, no problem."
The people here are not only good at cooking, but also literate. These are small things, small problems.
The prostitute went to the backyard and called more than a dozen people out, "The maids who can cook, the mother-in-law is here, you can choose."
Shen Xi looked at Song Shangshang, "Xiao Shangshang, take a look for yourself." After all, it is better for the master to come and see in person for such a job as picking a servant.
Song Changshang swept over the dozen or so people standing in front of her one by one, and finally her eyes fell on an old woman with a scar on her face. She felt a different temperament from the other person than the people around her.
As for the temperament, she couldn't tell, she just felt that the other party was different from the people around her. Others secretly raised their eyes to look at her, who might become their master, but the old woman didn't even give her a glance. she.
"Mother, she's the only one, maid." Song Shangshang looked around and finally chose a little girl standing at the back with her head bowed.
The matchmaker looked at the two of them, and then said, "Okay, Miss, the total is 20 taels of silver."
"Ten taels?"
Song Changshang was surprised. Although she had never bought a servant, she also knew how much it cost to buy a maid. Five taels per person can be up to seven or eight taels of silver, which is ten taels per person.
The matchmaker clapped her hands, "Girl, don't think it's expensive. Let me tell you, the little girl you bought cost five taels of silver, but the old woman was 15 taels of silver."
"Don't look at her with a scar on her face, but this person is not only good at cooking, but also literate, accounting, embroidery, rhythm, and proficient in everything. She is too old to sell for a good price. "The matchmaker paused for a while, "If you are younger, you can't buy it with 15 taels of silver!"
It was the customers who came here to buy maids and women who saw the scars on the other's face and were dissuaded, so they didn't buy it, because it looked scary.
There is no good spot on a face, but scars as thick as centipedes.
"So it is."
After hearing what the old lady said, Song Shangshang was surprised that the old lady was so powerful?Who was she before? Let’s not talk about cooking and embroidery. These two things were common to women in ancient times, but literacy and rhythm are not something that everyone knows!
Song Shangshang was a little curious about the experience of this old lady, what happened to disfigure a talented woman and was sold as a slave for so many years.
"Girl, if you think you can, buy it. Apart from his scary face, this person is pretty good, and he is also very hardworking." The prostitute urged.
Song Changshang nodded, took out the silver from his pocket and gave it to the matchmaker, "Okay, only 20 taels." The matchmaker took the money and agreed, and quickly found out the deed of prostitution between the two of them and gave it to her.
She took the deed of sale and looked at it to make sure there was no problem, so she put it in her arms, and asked the two to pack up their salutes. Half a quarter of an hour later, the two came over with a package. Song Shangshang glanced at the two, "Pack up and go."
"Yes, Miss." The two of them bowed their heads in response.
After getting into the carriage, Song Shangshang first sent Shen Xi back to Shilixiang, and then rushed to the market. She bought two servants, that talented old woman named Yuzhu.
A nice name.
The other maid is called Erya.
