Their family lived in the most shabby house among the servants' quarters, ate the worst food, and were always looked down upon.
But only Uncle Chen and his father-in-law got along well, and the two families had frequent interactions.
When adults interact with each other, children will naturally be influenced.
The Chen family also has a son and a daughter. Their daughters Chen Taohong and Chen Yingying have been playmates since childhood, and their son Chen Wei and his brother are close friends.
When Yingying died, the Chen family's two children were not at home.
A few days ago, Chen Taohong went to visit her grandparents in the countryside.
Chen Wei was clever and skilled in martial arts, and he usually followed the county magistrate outside his residence, so he followed the county magistrate to the countryside.
Even if they were there, it would be useless.
Early in the morning, Uncle Chen heard that everyone had returned, so he brought four eggs cooked by Aunt Chen and went to visit the children of the Chen family.
Seeing that my father looked haggard, I kept chatting with him from this morning until now.
"Yingying, you're awake. Uncle Chen brought four eggs this morning. I warmed them in the pot. You can eat two, and the other two are for your brother."
Yingying looked at the middle-aged man who looked older than her father and asked:
"Uncle Chen, thank you. Taohong hasn't come back yet?"
Uncle Chen smiled, his face wrinkled. "It's time to be back. It's around afternoon."
"Hey, I still have a lot to say to her."
After saying that, Yingying went to the kitchen on the left and lifted the lid of the pot. There was a little warm water at the bottom of an iron pot with a gap, and four white eggs were placed in it.
Yingying took out two, broke one and was eating when she noticed that the large ceramic bowl next to it was covered.
The food she ate was a bit dry, so she thought it was porridge. When she took off the lid of the bowl, she saw that it was corn porridge and two black sorghum steamed buns.
Yingying looked at the egg in her hand again and silently put another egg back into the pot.
I thought to myself that I should improve the basic food and accommodation problems first.
Bang~bang~bang~
There was a knock on the door, and the father-in-law got up to open it.
The person standing outside the door was someone he never expected to see, it was Zhengwei.
Father-in-law and Uncle Chen hurriedly bowed and saluted, but Father Zhengwei did not even look at them. He walked into the yard, followed by five or six servants, holding various silks and jewelry in their hands.
As soon as he entered the yard, Zhengwei shouted, "Yingying, I'm here, come out."
Seeing this, Xiaoli's face turned pale. She thought that the young master had given up on Yingying, but it seemed that he still hadn't given up. Was he going to do it openly?
Upon hearing the noise, Yingying came out of the kitchen with half an egg in her mouth.
She knew that Zhengwei would definitely come over. The strategies she gave were the essence of summaries from past dynasties. It was impossible for anyone in this small town to come up with a better strategy than this.
As soon as he saw Yingying, he stepped forward and said, "Yingying, my father is back. I told him what you said, and he praised it highly and asked me to think about the next plan."
Yingying glanced at everyone. Since this was the young master's first time coming to the servants' quarters, many people gathered at the door to watch the fun.
This is not the place to talk. Yingying looked at the things he brought with her eyes shining. It seemed that he had made a lot of money, and she was going to buy more things.
"Master, please go back to the study and wait for me. I'll be there soon."
"T."
Looking at the small courtyard, which was already packed with them, he said, "Put your things in."
The servants filed in, put down their things, and hurried to find their master.
Everyone thought that the daughter of the sixth son must have married into a wealthy family, so the young master suddenly came to the servants' room with gifts.
When he was about to be punished, the crowd began to talk about it.
"Look, the young master is completely obsessed with him and has been given so many gifts. He is really a fool."
"Aunt Wang, please don't say anything nonsense. If the Sixth Daughter says anything in front of the Young Master, you won't even see the sun tomorrow."
Those who used to feel that they were being bullied and wanted to make a few jokes shut up after hearing what Zhao Gang's mother said. The master was not allowed to talk casually.
She closed the door, shutting out all the noise.
No matter how soft-hearted she was, she didn't like them talking about her daughter's reputation.
Yingying walked into the main room and looked at her own broken table, which was piled with layer upon layer of things.
She picked up the gifts one by one and placed them in front of her.
[Beep! A Song Dynasty gilded jewelry box, valued at two hundred and sixty taels]
[Beep! A Song Dynasty double-headed golden flower hairpin, valued at nine hundred and seventy-two taels.]
[Beep! A Song Dynasty gold-engraved silver comb, valued at eight hundred and thirty taels.]
[Beep! Song Dynasty thin double-victory earrings, valued at four hundred and ten taels]
Yingying listened to the beeping sound, her eyes filled with surprise.
This is much more valuable than what you can buy in this era.
Yingying only sold one earring, and she was afraid that if a lot of things were missing all of a sudden, her father would become suspicious.
Looking at the remaining balance of 410 taels in the mall, I was thinking about what to buy.
Yingying tried to search for guns, but it seemed she had underestimated the system, as there were 908 items.
She made a face-palming expression.
I swiped around and found that in addition to toy guns, there were real guns, but the icons were gray.
She clicked, and a line of text appeared on the interface: You are only level one now, your cold weapons have not been developed yet, and you need to spend 23,256 taels to upgrade to the next level.
Yingying bought three anti-wolf flashlights, spending less than three or two taels.
She went to check again and found that Chen Dawei's fever had subsided and he had taken anti-inflammatory medicine in the morning, so he shouldn't be a big problem.
After the examination, Yingying went out to look for Zhengwei.
"Mom, the things are all on the table, please put them away. You can use the fabric to make clothes, I don't need them.
Here's something for you. Press this. If someone bullies you in the future, just press this bump and they'll faint."
The girl nodded, not quite understanding.
My father went to work. He was cleaning horse manure in the stable. The work was dirty and the pay was low. People took advantage of him because he was an honest man and assigned him the most difficult work.
