Chapter 24: Evil taste
Three days later, Yang Heng received his first errand, and went to the group courtyard to teach his servants to read and read.
There is a difference between good and cheap. Even ordinary people are ashamed to work with slaves, let alone teach them to read. Yang Heng thought this was Bai Pingzi’s heartfelt humiliation, his eyes flashed anger, and asked the cabbage who came to inform: "This is An errand from Manager Bai?"
Cabbage nodded and said, "Yes, your injury is not healed. This kind of light job is more suitable. Baijiazhuang is paid three taels of silver a month, deducting room and board expenses, and the remaining two taels of silver are used to cover the previous medical expenses. ." The remarks were business-like and understatement, as if he did not feel Yang Heng's resistance at all.
Yang Heng suddenly felt weak when faced with this unmovable young man. He was not worried about the tiredness of work, let alone the amount of wages, OK? !
squinted his eyes, Yang Heng tried his best to calmly said: "I want to see Miss Bai, please pass on for her."
Cabbage nodded, put down the little baggage in his hand and said: "I'll ask Miss if I have time. This is the textbook for class. Please prepare it first." I also continued to ignore the anger in Yang Heng's eyes. He didn't even notice that he didn't want to take this job, put things down and Shi Shiran turned and left.
I don’t know if Yang Heng’s luck is good or bad. After more than half an hour, he saw Bai Fuling as he wished. The latter had just made a round in the Chengquyuan and checked the study progress of her "cow and horse". Hearing from Cabbage that Yang Heng was very dissatisfied with the work assigned to him, he took the time to meet Yang Heng.
The meeting place is under the big tree on the side of the courtyard of the group of courtyards. The dense shade of the trees keeps out the hot summer sun. The shade of the trees is actually much cooler than other places.
Before came, Yang Heng had already thought about it. His current status is just a civilian, and he still owes Bai Fuling's kindness and money. In fact, he has no stand to oppose her arrangement, but it does not mean that he is about to "wait to die."
It is a romantic affair to pick a beauty in the frontier, and it is not an epic and moving deed to teach slaves and untouchables. If it is spread out in the future, the chances of becoming a laughingstock are 100%. If it is not good, it will be attacked and embarrassed by political opponents.
"Do you not want to teach my servant to read and read?" Bai Fuling was in a very good mood today, so he broke Yang Heng's mind without embarrassment. Just now, Yang Mei told her that there will be another group of slaves who can redeem and leave. The newly-learned new faces in Chengqunyuan will be added to their original posts, so that she will have dozens of invalidated sales deeds.
Today she is wearing a pink-yellow skirt and lotus leaf-colored long dress. Her long hair is rolled up high, and a few strands of beautiful hair and long emerald green headbands are falling down, fresh and tender as fresh as spring water emerges. Baihe, Yang Heng secretly praised Bai He, and his anger dissipated a lot.
"None of them will be slaves for the rest of their lives, and they will redeem themselves as good people in the future. You don't have to worry about their status affecting your future reputation. The servants and maids I bought are all literate and don't need to be taught." Bai Fuling didn't wait for him to answer. Xiaoyingying said that in the past, she met many people who refused to be hired to teach slaves to read even if she paid a high price, so she understood the concerns of these people.
The so-called official servants and maidservants refer to people whose household registration is recorded as slaves in the Qi State government. Many of these people are criminals and their family's children. Once they become official servants, unless they encounter an amnesty, the descendants of generations will be inferior slaves. .
There are some folks who are sold as slaves for various reasons. As long as they meet good masters and are willing to let them redeem themselves, they can still become civilians again. These people are also called slaves. The private slave’s deed of selling status is divided into a red deed and a white deed. The red deed is stamped with the official seal and is officially recognized. The white deed is only signed by the buyer and the seller, and may not even have a witness. The white deed also has legal effect, but if there is a conflict between a red deed holding the same slave and different buyers of the white deed, the red deed shall prevail.
Regardless of official slaves or private slaves, the state has expressly restricted the number of slave households that each household can have, and it is also not allowed to trade privately at will, but it is implemented in the real place without any enforcement, and high-ranking officials and wealthy households are unscrupulously raising slaves.
This Peng Tie claims to be a member of the rivers and lakes. He shouldn't care too much about this. He cares so much, which proves Bai Fuling's guess about his identity. However, because of her evil taste, she was so happy to pretend to know, just to toss about this seemingly gentle but arrogant guy.
Thinking about it this way, Bai Fuling decided that Yang Heng had to teach his servants. The more he was unwilling, the more he forced him to do it. This was fun!
She moved to Beiguan City for the past few years, and her life went so smoothly. Especially when the great backer of Lu Ying arrived, she was even more unscrupulous, so she knew that she should not do some things, knowing that it was playing with fire, but still couldn’t help it. do. If she knew all the troubles that would ensue in the future, I am afraid she would hide away early this morning and would definitely not offend Yang Heng for playfulness.
But how can there be regret medicine in the world?
Yang Heng listened to her, thinking about it, and asked: "Since they have to redeem themselves sooner or later, why bother to teach them to read and read?"
"If they are illiterate and do not have the ability to settle down, and in the current world, they will sell themselves as slaves for a livelihood in a blink of an eye. Isn't that a waste of my family's goodwill? Those who are redeemed from my Bai family not only need to be literate, but all of them You have to have a skill, making money and being self-reliant is not a problem." When Bai Fuling talked about what he was most proud of, his eyes were even more radiant.
"In this way, the Bai family is doing good deeds and accumulating virtues, and the merits are boundless." Yang Heng disapproved. He was not a three-year-old child, and he still chanted "being good at the beginning of a man." He didn't believe that someone would give money and work for no reason without fear of trouble. Great earth does good deeds. And I have never seen any house of Jishan that will raise a large group of well-skilled slaves who swagger through the city and collude with local officials, claiming to represent Wang Fa.
Bai Fuling seemed to be completely unable to understand the irony in his words, and said with a small face: "That's that. Our Bai family never asks for anything in return for doing good."
He said that regardless of Yang Heng's weird look, he pressed harder step by step: "The job of teaching people to read and write, do you do or not? As you said, this is a rare opportunity to do good and accumulate virtue! You are in the rivers and lakes. Shouldn't people be more informal? Let alone you still owe me five hundred and twenty-eight taels, plus the food and lodging these days..."
Yang Heng knows that he is in a disadvantaged position, and the result will only be worse if he continues speaking, and Bai Fuling's words intentionally or unintentionally mention his current identity...Although he can refuse with his body, he has not yet recovered. People from the family may find out more about the Bai family and Lu Ying. The most important thing is that Lie Dang left on the day he planned to go to Baijiazhuang to inquire about the reality. If he wants to contact Lie Dang, he must also Get in touch with others, so he nodded with a wry smile.
Bai Fuling won a big victory, looking at Yang Heng's back, she pulled the ginkgo by her side and smiled: "Secretly tell you a secret! I don't tell him most people!"
Ginguo rolled her eyes and asked helplessly: "What's the secret?"
"Blessed are the students in the Congqunyuan in the days to come!"
"What blessing is there?"
Bai Fuling mysteriously lowered his voice: "They will become the protégés of His Highness Qi Guoliu!"
"What?!" Ginguo's voice suddenly raised an octave, frightening the birds on the trees in the yard to flutter their wings.
"Don't get excited, don't get excited, do you want people in Qiguo to know about you so loudly?" Bai Fuling patted the ginkgo sympathetically, smiling sweetly.
Ginguo knew this was a big deal, and she lowered her voice and said, "Miss, you...you said that Peng Tie is His Royal Highness Six?" As she said, she glanced around her eyes. This is a crowded courtyard. There are so many people coming in and out. She She was anxious in her heart, and she didn't care about her superiors and inferiority. Before Bai Fuling could answer her hand, she went to the Lengquan Courtyard.
Bai Fuling followed her along, and she was still in the mood to say something cool: "Ginguo, you should just carry me back, it's hot and dry, I walk slowly, so tired..."
Ginguo turned her head and glared at her, helplessly bent down, carried the lazy Bai pig on her back, and performed light work towards the cold spring.
Bai Fuling's maids who bear the surname of the Bai family are not weak, although they are still very swift and fast. UU reading www.uukanshu.com returned to the cold spring in less than half a time.
Bai Fuling easily jumped to the ground and leaned on the icy marble chair under the shade of the spring. He was so comfortable that he almost wanted to roll on the spot. It's better to have his own nest!
Ginkgo is not so easy to pass, walked up to stare at her and said: "You make it clear, what's the matter?"
"The day before yesterday, my father received a quasi-letter. The imperial court sent to the Beiguan city to reward the northern army is the sixth prince. Although there is no specific description of his appearance, judging from his age and demeanor, this is the prince." Bai Fuling didn't care.
Ginguo still wanted to ask, Ma Lan had already walked over there with fruit refreshments, and she had to shut up temporarily.
A glass of iced fresh grape juice, and a large bowl of fruits of various colors cut into small pieces and mixed with yogurt. Bai Fuling ate happily with a smile. Ginguo looked greedy, but Ma Lan only handed her a cup of warm tea and said: "Ginkgo Sister, you just ran all the way. Eating ice is easy to eat up your stomach, so let's take a sip of tea and let it go smoothly."
"My Ma Lan will really take care of people, Ginguo, you can drink your tea at ease." Bai Fuling deliberately ate so loudly and irritatingly.
Ginguo cast her big eyes full of all kinds of envy, jealousy and hatred, and dismissed the interrupted Malan in twos or twos, and then continued to ask: "A young man with a straight face and an aristocratic face, Beiguan City. It’s rare, but it’s not absolutely absent. You know that he is His Royal Highness Six. His Duanzhou accent doesn’t look like someone from Beijing. Even if the minister of imperial service wants to visit privately, he should always bring a lot of guards. Well, how come you were alone and almost lost your life in the wild?"
