Having lived in the Great Zhou Dynasty for so many years, Cai Xiaolian knew that the girls trained by brokers and sold to brothels were different from those bought and trained by the brothels themselves.
Dongxue also has a kind of simple and honest temperament. She looks clever, but she is very innocent and naive.
Brothels specialize in training such people, while brothels cannot train them, but they still need them, hence the particularly high price for this type.
Dongxue only learned about these things after arriving at the Gu family and hearing other maids talk about them. She had previously thanked the broker for buying her, not only for providing her with food but also for teaching her to read. After learning the truth, she felt a wave of fear.
Therefore, she was very grateful to Cai Xiaolian, and of course, she was also very grateful to Gu Xin, because Gu Xin was a very easy master to get along with.
Gu Xin patted Dongxue's shoulder: "Don't be sad. If you're willing, I'll be family from now on."
Dongxue was so moved that tears instantly streamed down her face.
Gu Xin quickly wiped away her tears: "Don't cry. You're at the age where you should be getting married, so, Dongxue, do you have someone you want to marry?"
Dongxue took a handkerchief and wiped her tears, saying as she did so, "Third Miss, I will serve you for the rest of my life and will not marry."
Gu Xin: "What nonsense are you talking about! You have to get married. If you get married, you can stay by my side! Besides, I'm getting married too. Do you want to be like the head maids of the other young ladies in the mansions, marrying into the family and becoming the son-in-law's concubine?"
"No, no!" Dongxue shook her head. "Third Miss, I absolutely didn't have that thought, really. I just wanted to serve you, Third Miss. After you get married, I'll serve your young master in your place. And after he grows up and gets married, I..."
"Oh, stop, stop!" Gu Xin interrupted her helplessly. "What are you thinking, girl! Listen to me, I think you should find someone for yourself at your age. If you know anyone suitable, just tell me. If not, I'll introduce you! Bai Yi and the others are a bit older, but if you like them, you can get to know them! They'll all work for me, and you'll work for me too, which will be convenient! Of course, you can also wait until after I get married and find someone from Yuan Yuan's side. Yuan Yuan's servant is quite good, but Yuan Yuan said he has a sweetheart in the Zhenguo Duke's mansion. If you ask me, the people in our mansion are better. Those servants in the Zhenguo Duke's mansion have probably been spoiled rotten over the years."
Dongxue blushed and whispered, "This servant will leave it to the princess to decide."
Gu Xin snapped her fingers and said, "Here's what we'll do. After we get back to the capital, I'll have Bai Yi and the other brothers take turns showing up. You can keep an eye out for them, talk to them a few times, and let me know if you see someone you like. I'm letting you see first, you know, see how good I am to you!"
Dongxue nodded: "Thank you, Third Sister."
Gu Xin pinched her cheek.
Of the ten people in white, two stayed in Kunzhou. One of them had his eye on Sun Yumei, and the other had his eye on an embroiderer in the embroidery workshop. Gu Xin told them to stay in Kunzhou, keep an eye on the business, and report back to her at any time. At the same time, they were to pursue the girl with their own abilities. If they succeeded, she would reward them and help them with the wedding.
The rest all returned to the capital. So far, Bai Er has been spending the most time with Gu Xin, while Bai Yi only appears occasionally. After all, the Emperor wanted to appoint Bai Yi as a general, but he simply refused.
