"Most of them are civilians," Jiang Shang replied. "Many people’s living conditions are actually worse than slaves. If they meet a kinder master, they should work hard to ensure food and clothing. In fact, when your uncle was not a small official, the situation was not much better than them."

City ginger listened to snicker Jiang Shang a face of serious "what are you laughing at? You forget that when you were a child, I, your mother, got up early every day to kill cattle, slaughter sheep, sell wine and meat, and made a bloody wine and meat, so that you didn’t even have to wear a skirt and dared not let you go out. "
Yi Jiang is still laughing as if to say that it is not himself but someone else, and he has not forgotten to glance at my bare legs.
"Little brother!" Taiyi interjected, "If you’re not stupid, you’re not business material. Look at how rich people can be in selling fish and salt. You can sell wine and meat in Tangtianyi merchants and still lose food."
"Who is the glue?" Jiang Shang retorted that "his surname is authentic Yin Shang, and salt industry is the lifeblood of the country, which means that everyone should eat wine and meat, but not everyone."
Taiyi is quite disdainful. "It’s expensive to make friends with your wine and meat if you don’t do business with the poor!" I’ve heard that even the cleanest adults in Chaoge City, like Grandpa Nezha, have taken things from you for nothing. "
"How can you say that? How could Bigan’s adult take my things for nothing? They were all made up after I made an iou at that time, but there was indeed a lot of money that made me unable to operate. "
"But it’s all right!" Taiyi laughed. "You don’t know all the ministers in the DPRK. I don’t think you are bad at business, but you want to have a rich life, right?"
I couldn’t help staring at their words.
"hey!" Jiang Shang said, "Brother, don’t say this in front of the children, which is bad for the children."
The carriage stopped in front of a courtyard, which is not like the high-walled courtyard of Chaoge City, but it is also very neat.
When I entered the house, I immediately saw five children, big and small, running out of the house. I was about the same age, and I was not as tall as the console table. This is the five males in Jiang Shang
"Come too b teacher you remember? This is sister Nezha. "
"Good teacher too b! Sister Nezha is good! "
The next thing is naturally to distribute gifts. Jiang Shang asked the biggest Lu Ji, "Where is your mother?"
"Niang is in the kitchen"
"I’m here!" A slightly plump middle-aged woman appeared at the inner door. "Isn’t this Teacher Taiyi? What a rare visitor! Hey, whose girl is this? So beautiful? "
"This is my apprentice Nezha," Taiyi said and introduced me to "this is Mrs. Shen Jiang."
"Hello, madam." I leaned to salute.
"Hello, Nezha girl," Mrs. Shen Jiang looked at me. "Is it popular to wear Korean songs like this now? Wearing fur and barefoot boots? " It made me quite embarrassed.
"Mom," Lu Ji said, "Sister Nezha gave us a gift!"
"What a lovely child!" Mrs. Shen Jiang frowned and smiled. "Take off your fur coat!" She turned to Yi Jiang, "Yi Er helped Nezha to find a place to hang her fur coat, and don’t wrinkle it."
Yi Jiang came over to help me undress. I hesitated and said to her, "I don’t wear much inside …" I intuitively felt that Mrs. Shen Jiang’s mean mouth might not say anything.
She smiled. "What’s to be afraid of? This is not at home! There are so many people in the stadium that you are not afraid of what you are afraid of at home? "
I took off my robe and showed the cute sleeves inside. Sure enough, Mrs. Shen Jiang immediately widened her eyes when she saw it.
She came over and said, "Oh, Nezha, you are wearing too little … To be honest, my maiden slave wears more than you."
I suddenly flushed.
"Mother, what are you talking nonsense? It’s a smart competition, but what have you never seen before? "
"oh! Forgive the old man! " Mrs. Shen Jiang immediately started to laugh and then turned to the kitchen.
"Besides," Yi Jiang followed her. "Just say that I never saw the slave girl who washed clothes when I went back to grandma’s house with you before."
"Ah! She doesn’t leave the laundry room. What’s the matter with dressing or not? "
Jiang Shang cried over there. "Did I say that Mrs. Rice is ready? The children are all hungry! "
"all right! Ok! " Mrs. Shen shouted, "You are all seated!"
I sat on my knees next to Teacher Taiyi, and my tights were tight on my crotch, and a pair of cute sleeves were draped tightly together, and my legs were exposed more and more strongly.
I feel that the eyes of men, women and children all over the table are always intentionally sweeping from my big white legs, and I can’t help thinking to myself that I will never wear this dress again in my life today.
Mrs. Shen Jiang and Yi Jiang are busy cooking over there.
"Uncle" I asked, "Are there no slaves in your family?"
At this moment, Mrs. Shen Jiang said, "How can a small official with a sesame seed like Uncle afford a slave? Yi Er and I are his slaves. "
Jiang Shang smiled and looked very embarrassed. Although he was eloquent outside, he was speechless in the face of his wife’s complaints.
Mrs. Shen turned to Taiyi again. "Brother Taiyi, it was only because my husband was not famous and my father was moved by his words that he was willing to betrothed me. Supposedly, my husband followed your master and learned a lot, but what he learned behind the mountain was not as good as my unreliable brother."
I secretly asked Teacher Taiyi, "Who did Master Shen say was that unreliable brother?"
"He is also Yu Xu’s younger brother and your younger brother Shen Gongbao."
Shen Gongbao? He’s uncle Jiang Ya?
————
According to Shen Jiang, Shen Jiang’s surname Jiang Ya is of the same clan, but the blood relationship is far away, so they can marry.
Shen Gongbao is a fictional character in the Romance of the Gods, who set him up in the Shen clan.
32 Shi Ji was hired as Dean
Mrs. Shen looked at her husband’s mouth and still persisted. "When I was a child, you boasted to me that before Yier was ten years old, there would be a hundred slaves in our family to make our Yier live like a princess in the future. Now Yier should be married and have to do so many menial jobs every day like a poor girl. What do you promise her a princess life?"
Jiang Shang still didn’t talk. Maybe she was used to Mrs. Shen’s teasing.
"Madam," I couldn’t help saying, "Sister Yi Jiang doesn’t live as a princess now, but it doesn’t mean that she can marry the king later! You can live as a queen in the future. "
When this statement came out, everyone focused on me and Mrs. Jiang smiled. "Miss Nezha is really joking. Where can there be a king to marry a city, let alone a queen?"
The fourth brother of Yijiang asked, "Sister Nezha, which king will marry her?"
Let me see Taiyi and Jiang Shang. "I have said too much. Anyway, there will definitely be a king to marry her uncle and become a prime minister!"
Mrs. Shen Jiang smiled, "I hope I can still enjoy your uncle’s luck as a prime minister’s wife, thanks to Miss Nezha."
After dinner, Mrs. Shen called several children to leave and stay with us.
Jiang Shang looked at me very seriously. "Do you think Yier will become a queen in the future?"
I looked at them and looked at my eyes and felt guilty. "That’s what I said. Why are you so serious? Uncle Jiang can’t calculate the meeting, and Teacher Taiyi is also good at deduction! "
Jiang Shang said, "Life is not a random calculation. I never give divination to myself and my family."
Taiyi also said, "I won’t deduce my destiny unless I have to."
These two old men …
I watched them finally realize that among the four people, I’m afraid I, a traveler, knew the historical trend. Teacher Taiyi didn’t know everything in advance, but he figured it out.
"The ShiShu" I bifurcation topic "you can I calculate a hexagram! Look at the fortune behind me. "
"All right!" Jiang Shang said and took out three pieces of jade money. "Brother, I’m going to ask for money! Put it in your account. "
See him put the jade money into the bamboo tube and sway it for a few times, then pour it on the case and look at it for a long time.
