A man in a cloak came out of the house.
Big Teeth bowed and said respectfully, "Sir, I've sent him off!"
"here you go!"
Big Teeth hesitated to speak, and the man sneered twice: "This chess piece will be very useful. Let's see if he can survive!"
She patted his shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I will report your achievements to His Majesty! I'll have to ask you to stay here for a few more years!"
Big Teeth understood, "I feel honored to be able to serve the prince!"
The man in black nodded and disappeared in a flash.
Big Teeth wiped the sweat from his forehead and sat in his chair, lost in thought.
On the other side, the three servants were stunned when they arrived at Xiangyang Village. They originally thought that Tang Youyou was the housekeeper of a wealthy family, but they didn't expect that she was a real farmer.
The three of them looked at the adobe house and swallowed, and the same thought came to their minds: Will we have enough to eat in the future?
Tang Youyou saw what they were thinking, "Don't worry, I will definitely make sure you have enough to eat. I've always been kind to others, and I clearly distinguish between rewards and punishments. I only have one request of you, and that is to be absolutely loyal!"
The three of them immediately knelt on the ground to show their loyalty.
"Master, rest assured, we will remain loyal to you!"
Tang Youyou waved her hand: "Don't call me Master from now on, it sounds weird, just call me Youyou!"
The three of them looked at each other, all with confusion in their eyes.
The cook quickly waved her hands: "Master, this is against the rules!" How could a servant call the master's nickname directly?
Tang Youyou raised her eyebrows, "Rules are dead, but people are alive!"
The cook was a little embarrassed. "Master, we are not deliberately contradicting you. It is really because we are slaves and cannot go beyond the master's house. Otherwise, I will call you Madam Tang!"
The other two also nodded.
She waved her hand, "Forget it, it's up to you!"
She began assigning tasks, "From now on, one of you will be responsible for guarding the village, and the other will be responsible for delivering goods to the county town! You can arrange them as you wish!"
"Please give me a name, Madam Tang!"
Tang You You knew that only after being given a name could it be considered as true recognition. She nodded slightly and looked at the three of them, "From now on, the three of you will be called Tang Dazhuang, Tang Dasheng, and Tang Daxing..."
She really didn't know how to come up with a name and thought she would be looked down upon, but she didn't expect the three of them to be so happy that they silently recited her name.
"Thank you, Madam Tang, for the name!"
The family was still building a house, and many villagers stopped to watch. This was the first time they saw a farmer buying a human being, and they were all very surprised.
"Go away, you'll get to know the people in this family in the future!"
She was going to the village chief's house. Digging a well was urgent. Now that winter had arrived, it would be very inconvenient to fetch water if there was heavy snow and ice.
"Oh... my niece is here. I said I would come to see you later!" The village chief smiled.
"Village Chief, I bought three servants and need to build two houses!"
The village chief stroked his beard and said, "I've heard about it. This is the first time in the village! Haha..." Don't worry, the two houses will be built for you before the frost hits!"
"Village chief, I want to dig another well!"
The village chief smiled even brighter. "What a coincidence! I've discussed with the elders that our village needs a lot of water now, so we need to dig two wells! I've already contacted the people!"
Tang Youyou understood in her heart that the village chief was worthy of being the clan leader. His vision and thoughts were much longer-term than those of ordinary people.
So, the decision to dig a well was made.
When the villagers heard about it, they were all extremely excited.
"Two wells need to be dug in the village, both of which need to be placed in the center!"
"That's great! We don't have to go to the river to wash clothes anymore. The water has been freezing cold these past few days!"
"Huh? Strangely enough, Xiangyang Village doesn't even have a well!"
Some people shrugged it off: "Hey... the big river at the entrance to the village has plenty of water!"
"We're lucky, the water in this well is warm in winter and cool in summer!"
The well-drilling team was naturally introduced by the shopkeeper Su who sells tiles.
That day, Tang Youyou was teaching Tang Wen and the others how to write when someone came running into the lobby, panting.
"Sister, the beans are growing!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he felt a strong wind blowing past him, and in the blink of an eye, Tang Youyou disappeared.
Datang scratched the back of his head and said, "This girl's body movement is really unbearable!"
The people behind him burst into laughter.
When Tang Youyou arrived at the greenhouse, everyone looked worried.
"Youyou, what should we do? The sprouts that have grown are actually white!"
She didn't say anything, but examined it carefully and finally laughed twice.
"Wash five dishes first, quickly..."
Seeing this, everyone did not dare to delay and started to work immediately. A quarter of an hour later, five baskets of bean sprouts were neatly arranged.
Tang Youyou ordered Tang Wen: "Brother, of these five plates, you give one basket to Master Jia, and the rest to the Li Mansion!"
She turned and whispered a few words to Tang Wu. He swallowed and said, "Sister, can I have a bite?"
Not wanting to be glared at, he said, "Stop talking nonsense. These bean sprouts all depend on your mouth. You have a heavy responsibility!"
He patted his chest and said, "Sister, don't worry, your brother is very smart!"
"Da da da" the ox cart moved forward, carrying everyone's expectations.
The lobby whispered, "Sister, won't this be poisonous if you eat it?"
She laughed out loud: "Maybe, I'll probably want to eat more after eating it, haha..."
So, Master Lin finally got to enjoy this fresh bean sprout feast.
He stroked his beard and looked at Tang Youyou with approval.
"Yes, your sprouts are delicious. They're crisp and refreshing when served cold, tender and flavorful when stir-fried, and the soup has a strong bean flavor! I've lived for so many years, but this is the first time I've eaten this!"
Tang Youyou began to flatter him: "Since Master has praised me, these bean sprouts must be really good! If Master likes them, please eat more!"
Xiao Shan muttered quietly, "I've never seen such a thing before. My mother actually knows how to flatter someone, and the Master actually enjoys it!"
Master Lin glared at him. "You're only ten years old, what a joke! I wonder when your crappy handwriting will improve. For today's lesson, you'll have to write the characters you learned five times again!"
Yes, Tang Youyou bought some paper from this era at a special price at the mall for everyone to use.
"Plop!" The chopsticks fell to the ground. Xiaoshan felt very aggrieved and quickly looked at Tang Youyou.
The latter seemed not to notice and hurriedly ate his meal.
He looked at the others again, and they all gave helpless expressions and ate their food quickly.
What was even more hateful was Lin Huahua. She frowned slightly and said, "Third brother, why did your chopsticks fall?" She wiped them for him and handed them back to him.
Seeing how pitiful he looked, Xue'er quickly picked up two pieces of food for him and said to him, "Third brother, eat quickly, or you'll have to light a candle and write tonight!"
Xiaoshan: You guys know how to touch people’s hearts!
Tang Youyou couldn't bear it any longer and picked up the bowl and left the main room.
Master Lin's mouth twitched. He looked at the others who were trying to minimize their presence and coughed twice. "After dinner, we'll take the dictation first!"
Everyone: "..."
Now it was Xiaoshan's turn to laugh with schadenfreude.
Master Lin rolled his eyes. "Is five times too few?"
Xiaoshan: "..."
