Traveling through ancient times: living a different life
Chapter 162 Choosing a Gardener
He flattered the three people and said, "Are you looking to buy people or a shop?"
The nanny said, "We need a few people who can take care of the flowers and plants, cook and wash clothes, women in their 30s, and girls and boys around 15 years old.
When the agent saw that the nanny wanted so many people at once, he knew that it was a wealthy family and was very happy. He quickly responded, "Okay, my dear, please wait a moment, I will let them out right away."
Soon, 15 men and women were brought in, including two women, both around 30 years old.
The nanny walked up to them and asked them how many years they had been tending the flowers and plants.
Two people came out first, and she said to the nanny, "We two brothers used to be gardeners for a wealthy family. When the master got into trouble, he sold us out. We have been doing this business for more than ten years."
Nanny Ding looked at Biyue, and she nodded to indicate that it was okay.
I'm going to pick out three or four more from there, and that'll be enough.
The two women saw that the nanny had no intention of choosing them, so they knelt down and kowtowed, and volunteered to Bi Yue, saying, "Dear lady, we have been in this business for four or five years. Although we haven't been doing it as long as them, we are also good at taking care of flowers and plants, and we can also arrange flowers, mend clothes, and make cakes. You can buy us too."
When Bi Yue heard that they had so many skills, she was a little interested and asked them, "There are only two of you here, do you have any relatives?"
Seeing that this distinguished lady wanted to buy both of them, she quickly said, "Thank you, Miss. My name is Qin Ruyun, I am 29 years old, and I have a daughter, Ma Xiangxiang, who is 12 years old. Please buy them both."
Another woman said, "Miss, my name is Ma Zhaodi, I am 28 years old, and I have a son named Che Qianjin, who is 10 years old and can work."
"Then buy them all."
"Thank you, Miss. Thank you for your kindness. We will work hard and be loyal to you in the future."
The matchmaker brought the two children out. When they saw their mother, they quickly ran to them. The two women were very happy and kowtowed to Bi Yue with their children to express their gratitude.
Bi Yue signaled them to get up quickly and said to the nanny, "Pick three more people. Seven gardeners should be enough."
"Master, I understand."
I have just selected two men and two women. If I pick three more men, there will be a total of seven craftsmen to take care of flowers and plants. That’s about it.
The five men saw that Bi Yue was a kind and good master, so they looked at each other and knelt at her feet boldly, "Miss, my wife and children are also here, please buy them together, I don't want to be separated from them."
Bi Yue glanced at the maid, and then she said to the maid, "Go and call the families of these craftsmen over so that the master can take a look."
Soon, nearly 20 people came, all of them were the family members of the five craftsmen, including wives, parents, sons and daughters.
The nanny asked them to put their relatives aside so that it would be clear who was whose family, and each craftsman should bring a few relatives.
"Each of you craftsmen, have your wife, children, and parents stand together, and introduce yourself one by one. Xiaomai, use paper and pen to write down all these people."
"Okay, miss."
The first craftsman to stand up said, "My name is Tian Dahai, I am 33 years old, my wife Ge Cuicui is 31 years old, and my eldest son Tian Zhiming is 14 years old.
The second son, Tian Zhixin, is 12 years old. A daughter, Tian Chuntao, is 9 years old, and there is an old mother, Yu, who is 52 years old. "
The second craftsman stepped forward and said, "My name is Wu Weiping, I am 31 years old, and I only have one father, Wu Gensheng, 50 years old, and one son, Wu Changqing, 12 years old."
The third craftsman said, "My name is Shang Changzhi, I am 28 years old, my wife is Yang Xiaohua, 25 years old, my daughter is Shang Rongrong, 6 years old, and my son is Shang Zhigao, 3 years old."
The fourth craftsman, "My name is Wang Daniu, 29 years old, my father Wang Xuming, 51 years old, my mother Xiao, 49 years old, my wife Wan Qingmiao, 26 years old, my daughter Wang Yuzhu, 8 years old, my son Wang Yuanshan, 6 years old, and my youngest son Wang Yuanqiu, 3 years old.
The fifth craftsman said, "Wang Daniu and I are brothers. He is my elder brother. My name is Wang Erniu, 26 years old. My wife Liu Yezi is 25 years old. My eldest son Wang Yuanjiang is 6 years old. My daughter Wang Yuanhong is 4 years old."
This person reported the numbers and names. Together with the seven craftsmen, there were nearly 7 people in total. There was no need to hire gatekeepers, errand boys, or cooks. Just buy these first.
The nanny looked at Bi Yue and said to her with a troubled look on her face, "Princess, aren't there too many people? And there are more than a dozen children, so the adults and children account for almost half each."
The 28 people and the matchmaker were all shocked to hear the maid call the beautiful girl a princess. They never expected that the princess would come to the human tooth market in person to pick someone.
The matchmaker and the 28 men all knelt down, and the matchmaker flattered her, "I didn't know that Your Highness came here in person to select people. As long as you send a servant to tell me, I will bring them to your house and let you choose. Why did you come to this lowly place in person?"
Biyue asked the matchmaker and 28 people to stand up.
The matchmaker quickly shouted to the people inside, "Zhang Laosan, move a chair for the nobleman to sit on. How can you be so tactless?"
The man named Zhang Laosan immediately brought over a large armchair and enthusiastically invited Biyue to sit down.
The matchmaker introduced with a humble look, "Sir, the gardeners here are all experts in tending to flowers and plants. You just said you wanted to buy servants and maids, as well as cooks. Now that you have chosen seven gardeners, their families can do all these miscellaneous tasks. If that's not enough, you can choose a few more servants and maids."
"Bring out some girls and boys around 15, and I'll pick some more."
The matchmaker, seeing this distinguished person, wanted to choose people. Her eyes narrowed into a line with joy. She immediately brought up 10 boys and 10 girls and stood in two rows.
The nanny went forward to select five girls and five boys, all around 15 years old, each of them had a good-looking face.
Bi Yue was very satisfied. Among the five boys who were not chosen this time, two boys around 5 years old stood up and knelt down to Bi Yue, "Sir, please buy us two brothers. We are hardworking and will serve you well."
Just as the nanny was about to scold them, Bi Yue said to them in a friendly manner, "Why do you want to recommend yourselves? What special skills do you have that I want you to buy?"
"My brother and I can read some simple words. Our family was poor before, so we eavesdropped on the teacher's lectures outside the private school. Later, our parents died one after another. My uncle's family thought we were a burden, so they sold us. Because my younger brother is not in good health, someone wanted to buy me instead of my younger brother. I didn't agree, so I was never chosen by the master. Since you look kind, I dare to ask for it."
After listening to his words, Bi Yue knew that this brother was kind-hearted and responsible, and was a good brother. From this point of view, this eldest brother had a good character.
"It's great that you have the heart to protect your brother. You two brothers stay here and ask your brother to come over so I can see what's wrong with him."
When the elder brother heard that the noble man was still treating his younger brother, he quickly pulled his younger brother forward. The younger brother seemed very timid and moved forward timidly.
Biyue held his wrist, looked at him with a thousand-layer mirror for a few minutes, and said to the two brothers, "Your brother is fine, he is just malnourished and worried too much. This is what happened after your parents died.
He is young and can't accept it all at once. He is too sad and has become ill. I will give him some medicine when he returns to the mansion. He will be cured in a few days. You don't have to worry."
He quickly pulled his brother to kowtow to Bi Yue, "Thank you, my lord. Thank you, my lord."
