In the past, when he secretly went to the flower building to do business, A Mo, not to mention all the young ladies in the flower building, knew them all, but most of them were familiar with them. He was naturally familiar with the beautiful older young lady sitting at the door at the moment.

Not to mention Wu Qingyuan, his memory is basically photographic. This young man is still an informant who has done business with him. It has only been a few months, so he can't forget it.

Since they all knew each other, the young man was sitting on the ground at the entrance of the inn crying pitifully. A Mo was always warm-hearted, so he helped him out and brought him in to have a meal together. Wu Qingyuan had no objection either. He is indifferent but not really heartless, it is really quite eye-catching for this young man to sit and howl at the door.

"Brother Azhu, what happened, why are you here?"

He found a corner and sat down, and asked Xiaoer to serve the food. Amo asked first.

Those young men in Hualou didn't dislike him and took care of his business. He was very grateful. Although this young man was lowly, most of them were poor people, and his temperament was easier to get along with than many people in the village.

"I... woo woo, Amo, I'm gone, I'm gone, all the silver I've saved for so many years has been taken away by that sheep-bearer..."

As soon as the sad thing was mentioned, Jiang Zhu, who was burying his head in eating, suddenly raised his head, burst into tears again, and told his experience intermittently.

Speaking of which, although this young man named Jiang Zhu is only in his 20s, his life can be described as ups and downs, and he has experienced many things.

He was originally the younger brother of a rich family. Although he was born of the master's concubine, he was liked by the master and lived a rich life in rich clothes and jade books. All the business was lost.

His old father couldn't bear the blow, and jumped into the river by himself in order to avoid the debt, leaving the orphans and widows in the backyard to face the creditors. In the end, because of his good looks, he was favored by the creditors, and he took them home and took them into the house.

At that time, he was only fourteen or fifteen years old. He was originally a wealthy young master, but he ended up being a plaything in the house of a wretched bully, and he was often bullied by his wife and concubines in the backyard. After staying in the hands of the bully for a while, he accidentally met a long-term worker in the mansion.

Although the long-term worker was unattractive, he was single and poor in his family, but he had a very good personality. When we first met him, he was very caring, and he often helped and cared for him. At that time, the young man who had just experienced ups and downs at a young age had a fragile heart, and soon The two developed a relationship, and he escaped with the long-term worker and settled in Shiqiao Town.

It’s just who knows that the good times don’t last long. The two had a few days of happiness at the beginning, but it didn’t take long for the reality of society and life to defeat their love. No matter how beautiful the little brother is, but because of the low chance of pregnancy, a man is It is almost impossible to marry only one younger brother.

So later the long-term worker married another woman as the main wife, and he, the little brother who hadn't even paid homage to the court, became a superfluous person. He changed his mind and sold him to Hualou for money under the provocation of his wife. !

After experiencing so many things, even though he was only in his teens at the time, Jiang Zhu quickly matured. Fate had destined him not to resist, but to accept changes, so with his beautiful appearance and obedient attitude, His life in Hualou is not bad.

Going around and around until he is 25 years old now, he will not be popular when he is old, and he has saved enough money for his retirement, so he redeems himself and prepares to find a place where no one knows him, and start a new life.

But he was really unlucky. He just arrived in Jiangyi County by boat. He was going to rest for one night before heading on his way. However, he still couldn’t find the inn. Halfway through the journey, his wallet was touched and his baggage was robbed. Now he was covered with half a copper coin. Not even a set of happy clothes.

"Hey, that's what I managed to save. I'm just pointing at the money for the elderly. These nasty little bastards don't let people live. Amo, where do you think I can go now? Is it possible to pay back the money? Lou, I just came out, I'm still at this age, who would like me..."

Jiang Zhu cried very sadly, it's really unlucky to drink cold water and stuff your teeth.

Seeing him crying sadly, A Mo didn't know how to comfort him for a while. It was so unfortunate that it was useless to comfort him. The only real comfort was to help him find a solution.

It’s just that there’s nothing to do about it, those thieves who lead the sheep have no fixed place to live, and they don’t know where they live here so they can’t find anyone. He considers himself unlucky, but the problem is that the money is the guarantee of Jiang Zhu's future life.

Jiang Zhu himself is aware of these problems, so the more he thinks about it, the more sad he gets. He really wants to die when he cries, but he won't really die. don't want to die.

"Boss Wu, I heard that you have done some small business recently. I wonder if you have any work for me? I, I really have nowhere to go, and Auntie Hualou will definitely not want me again. …”

At the end of the cry, Jiang Zhu anxiously looked at Wu Qingyuan and asked about it. It was at this point that if he was not thick-skinned, he could only be a beggar. He had no other skills to make a living.

"what can you do?"

"I know how to read. My father asked me to teach me how to read when I was at home. I can also do abacus. I can do chores in public. I can also do kitchen work."

"Have you ever studied with the master of the private school?"

"I know the four books, five classics and eight-legged essays."

As a young master from a rich family, Jiang Zhu has studied and is actually very knowledgeable. It's just that he is a young man, and even if he has knowledge, he can become a commoner.

"Well, you can temporarily stay at my house for a few days, I'll take a look at the work and talk about it..."

Wu Qingyuan thought about it for a while, then nodded.

"Thank you, Boss Wu!"

The young people who were taken in expressed their thanks with tears of joy.

..............

That night, Wu Qingyuan opened a room for Jiang Zhu in the inn, and waited until the next morning before returning to Shiqiao Town by boat with Jiang Zhu, eighteen servants and the things they bought for the servants.

Due to the large number of servants, Wu Qingyuan can't arrange all of them to live in the town for the time being. His house in the town can't accommodate so many people, and these servants have just been bought, and he needs to be trained and brainwashed before they can use them. Temporarily arrange these people back to the village, and tidy up the warehouse used to store charcoal at home for these people to live in.

Letting people live in warehouses is not because he treats people badly. Now the conditions are limited, and being too good to these servants from the beginning is not conducive to winning people's hearts in the future. You must know that people's hearts are mostly greedy and dissatisfied. It is not surprising that there are a few half-hearted ones.

Besides, the identity of these people at this moment is his servants rather than guests. This is the case in this era. It is impossible for him to demand everything by the standards of modern people. To overthrow the hierarchy is to oppose all the people here.

Regarding Wu Qingyuan's arrangement, the slaves who were bought back had no objections. Everyone was prepared for the moment when their status was reduced to lowly slaves, regardless of their living conditions. As long as they don't meet a cruel master, they will worship Buddha and fulfill their vows up.

Next, Wu Qingyuan started a busy life again, running around the town and the village every day, busy with the business in the store, and busy with training and brainwashing these servants.

There is also the carbon kiln business. Zhang Dazhu’s injury has healed, so he can come to help. Brother Zhou is also learning to deal with it, but he is still a little uneasy, so he has to pay attention to it. Fortunately, he is a supernatural person. The energy is strong, otherwise the body would have collapsed after being so tired and busy.

A Mo looks very distressed every day. He tries his best to look after the shop when he is away during the day, and cooks soup for him when he returns home at night. He really goes from the living room to the kitchen. No matter in business or life, the 19-year-old boy is gradually beginning to mature. stand up.

As for Jiang Zhu, Wu Qingyuan went back to find a few books of the Four Books and Five Classics and tested him. He was sure that he was not lying, and he was really knowledgeable. Before Zhao Haisheng, the young man did a good job, and Amo also stood up to him. He was familiar with him, so he sent a kind heart to take him in. He helped Amo with some chores during the day and tutored Lin Tianbao with his homework at night.

Lin Tianbao's brain is indeed good for reading. He only went to a private school for a few days and he praised him many times. However, no matter how clever he is, he still has problems with his homework. Although Wu Qingyuan has studied, he doesn't know For the four books, five classics and stereotyped essays that can be tested in science, Amo only learned to read and write. Neither of them has a university education, so they can't answer the children's problems at all.

Before, he also thought about hiring a scholar for Lin Tianbao to tutor him after school, so as to train the children well, but he never found the right person.

At this moment, Jiang Zhu happened to be from a wealthy family, and he had a certain amount of ink in his belly. Even if he is just a down-and-out young man, his behavior has been assimilated by the market and lost the nobleness of the former young master, but in fact, his knowledge is no worse than those scholars. It's okay to look at Lin Tianbao's homework.

As for his status as a young lady, Wu Qingyuan, an open-minded modern person, wouldn't care. A Mo knew him well and knew who he was, so he wouldn't care.

So Jiang Zhu settled down in the Wu family like this.

The author has something to say: I saw some Gu Niang in the comment area questioning why Lao Wu didn’t take the exam for scholar. Mrs. Alexan is big...as for the beautiful Xiao Zhu, no spoilers!
