Chapter 206



She didn't intend to make it too difficult on this matter. This kind of thing can only be slowly understood by getting along with each other in the future.

"Do you all have your own names?" Jian Xiu asked again.

Not surprisingly, after hearing what Jian Xiu said, they all shook their heads at her in unison.

Even if they have any idea at this time, they dare not say it.

They will never forget what Aunt Li said to them.

No matter who their future owners are, their names will be re-named by their future owners.

No master likes his maid's original name.

Jian Xiu knew this would be the result, and she didn't expect to hear any answer from them.

"Do you want to choose your own names? Or do you want everyone to choose them?" Jian Xiu asked again.

"It's up to you, my Lord!"

Jian Xiu: “…” Didn’t you say not to call her master?

Why don't you listen to me?

It seems that if I want to change this name, I need to work harder.

"Since you want us to choose, then come on. There are three girls, so choose by color: green, red, and yellow. Little green, little red, and little yellow. How do you think?"

"Thank you, Lord!"

"And there are ten of you..."

Speaking of this, Jian Xiu suddenly had a headache.

She has always been bad at naming, and she really has no idea about names.

In fact, when everyone heard Jian Xiu pick those three names, they had already lost all desire.

At this time, they naturally did not dare to have too much extravagant hopes.

Just watching their master pondering like this, a glimmer of hope suddenly rose in my heart.

Maybe they would have had a better name.

"Let's count from one to ten. Zhang one, Zhang two, Zhang three... all the way to Zhang ten! How do you think?"

Everyone: “…”

It's just a name, no need to think about it for so long, right?

However, no one dared to say such words, and they could only nod in unison.

Seeing this, Jian Xiu took out a five-liang silver ingot, handed it to Xiaoqing, and said:

"You three will go buy some clothes and bedding later. This mansion was just bought. It has three entrances. What about the courtyard on the right?"

"I plan to let a few children live here. They need quiet to study. If there is nothing to do at home, try not to disturb them."

"Also, there is a Tianyi in there. He will teach you martial arts later. I hope you can be independent in the shortest time possible. As for food, I will give you a recipe later. You just follow that recipe every day. Do you understand?"

Jian Xiu knew that if nothing unexpected happened, they would not dare to buy so much food even if she ordered them to.

She might as well make a recipe.

Practicing martial arts is a very physically demanding activity. If you can't even fill your stomach, you won't be able to sustain further training.

"In addition, I will give you three more dollars every month. This is equivalent to your monthly salary. You can buy some things you need, even though your indentures are in my hands."

"But I hope you can treat this place as your home, and I am your family. Do you understand?"

Looking at these teenage children, what exactly did they go through to cause them to be sold?

After all, they are just a child.

In this world, children of their age, still in junior high school, some even need to hide in their parents' arms and act like a spoiled brat.

And what about them?

But need to endure so many hardships in life.

On that day, after explaining all these things, the couple did not go back immediately.

Instead, I went to the academy to pick up the children and told them that I would live here from now on.

Jian Xiu didn't know that what she had just said about those three people had already frightened more than a dozen of them.

They never dared to imagine that servants like them, who had sold their bodies and signed death contracts, would actually receive a salary.

You know, let alone three dollars, even if you have ten copper coins, they will think it is a lot.

It turned out that they wanted to thank their master again.

But I didn't expect the master to be so efficient. After explaining everything, he left immediately.

After reacting, all I saw was the elegant back of my master.

"Mom and Dad, then we can just walk back by ourselves later?" Zhang Feixuan said with a smile.

"No, that won't work. How can we do that in such a chaotic situation? Let Zhang Yi pick you up when the time comes!"

"Okay, then mother, if Brother Yi is free, would you like to live here as well?" Zhang Feiyi asked cheerfully.

Hearing this, Jian Xiu immediately lowered her head and looked at the three children.

Zhang Yuan, the head of the village, and Zhang Yi, the grandson of Zhang Yi. If Zhang Feiyi hadn't mentioned it, she would have almost forgotten that he was also studying at the academy.

Thinking of this, Jian Xiu asked: "Why does Fei Yi ask this?"

"No, I just thought about how Brother Yi often taught us to read and helped us a lot in the academy, so I wanted Brother Yi to live here with me."

After these words came out, Jian Xiu herself was stunned.

I didn't expect Feiyi to think so much.

Looking at Fei Xuan and Fei Mo again, as expected, they were also looking at him expectantly.

"Well, if your brother is willing, then of course there is no problem, but you can relax occasionally here. The most important thing is to study, understand?"

"Understand, understand. We all understand."

After everything was settled and they went to the wood pottery workshop, the couple drove the carriage back.

"Stop, stop!" Jian Xiu said to Zhang Xuan who was driving the carriage in front.

"What's the matter?"

"You want to buy that clay figurine. Feilan asked you to buy it last time. But you've been so busy that you've forgotten to buy it for her several times."

This was a rare memory, so she had to buy it quickly.

Hearing that his daughter wanted something, Zhang Xuan jumped off the carriage and walked to the stall.

"Brother, your clay figurine is quite cute. How much is it for?"

"Oh, you have good taste, the one you have in your hand is the best, it costs five copper coins, and these are inferior, they only cost three copper coins."

"Okay, let's take this one!"

"Pack it up for me. I'm so generous. Big brother, give me another candy!"

“Thank you very much!”

Zhang Xuan, who followed behind him, pointed at one of the clay figures and asked, "Did you make all these by yourself?"

"Of course, to be honest, I don't have anything else to do, I just make these clay figures."

At this point, the vendor smiled naively.

"If I ask you to pinch one now, how long will it take you?" Zhang Xuan asked again.
