Chapter 148 Buying People (3)

"Do you still need me to teach you? Shield her mouth."

"Yes."

“Mmmmm…”

Following an almost impatient command, one of the men who was holding her tore off her sweat towel, rolled it into a ball and stuffed it into her mouth. The noisy voices finally disappeared.

"I'm sorry for causing trouble to you."

Turning her gaze to them, the woman nodded in apology.

"It's okay."

Shen Xiangwan waved his hand nonchalantly, and the woman did not insist. She nodded to them again, turned around and left with their people.

"gorgeous!"

Watching her back, Shen Xiangwan smacked his lips and praised her again.

"Late night."

Looking at his beloved wife, Wei Chengyi called out helplessly. He knew that she was fond of men, but he didn't know that she was also fond of women!

"hey-hey···"

Looking back at him, Shen Xiangwan was smiling heartily. It was rare to meet such a beauty, so what was wrong with looking at her a few more times?
"You guys have been waiting for a long time."

At the same time, Manager Sun also came back, followed by dozens of men and women, young and old, and a few children who looked only four or five years old.

"What are you standing there for? Come forward and let Master and Madam take a good look."

Seeing that they were dithering, Manager Sun's face darkened and his tone was quite stern.

"Yes."

Not daring to delay any longer, a group of people stepped forward in fear and trepidation. It was not difficult to see the uneasiness on their faces. They hoped to be chosen, but were afraid of meeting a master who was difficult to get along with. After all, a servant's life was really worthless, and the master would not be responsible if he beat them to death or maimed them.

"You guys come out."

Manager Sun waved his hand and called out a dozen men and women, all of whom appeared to be between 20 and 30 years old. They followed almost every command and made every movement, looking very uneasy.

"Ma'am, they all know how to cook."

"Ah."

Nodding, Shen Xiangwan stood up and walked towards them: "Stretch out your hand so I can see it."

"Yes."

Although no one knew what she wanted to do, no one dared to disobey her orders, and dozens of people stretched out their hands tremblingly.

"Just the four of them."

Shen Xiangwan lowered his eyes and pointed out four women.

"Okay, you guys wait here for now."

"Yes."

The four chosen people respectfully stepped aside, and Steward Sun recruited another 20 or 30 men and women: "All of these people can serve as servants, Madam, you can choose as you like."

"Just the ten of them."

This time Shen Xiangwan did not move. She just pointed at ten men and women who looked relatively strong. Servants mostly did some cleaning work, so there was no need to be too particular. Even if they bought a slave, the worst that could happen was that they would be beaten up and sold. But it was different for chefs. All the food they handled was to be eaten, so she would look at their hands carefully and pick out a few whose fingernails were clean. People who could remain clean even when they were sold should be particular about their daily lives, so at least there was no need to worry about the food they made being unclean.

"No problem." Seeing her so straightforward, Manager Sun's smile became even brighter. Then he called a few more women over: "Madam, they are all used to doing housework. Washing clothes is not a problem at all."

"Ah."

Looking lazily, Shen Xiangwan pointed at two women who looked to be in their thirties and said, "That's them."

"it is good."

Waving his hand at the two people who were chosen, Manager Sun called out a few more women: "Madam, some of them are maids sold by big families, and some are the families of exiled commoners. They are all literate and well-versed in etiquette."

"Um···"

Standing up with his hands on the armrests of the chair, Shen Xiangwan walked to them, looked at them one by one, and finally stopped in front of a woman who looked to be in her thirties and had an unusual demeanor: "What's your name, and what did you do before?"

"Reply, Madam, my humble surname is Zhou, my name is Wushuang, I was once the legitimate wife of the governor of Bingzhou. Because my husband committed a crime, he was exiled. I have been here for more than three years. Some time ago, my husband, who depended on me for life, caught a cold and passed away. In order to raise money for a coffin for him, I sold myself."

The woman bowed and saluted her, then choked up as she spoke, hot tears falling on the back of her hand with a plop.

"Okay, it's just you."

A person who values ​​love can't be that bad, and Shen Xiangwan made the decision in an instant.

"Thank you ma'am."

Zhou Wushuang saluted him again, without any instructions from Manager Sun, wiped away his tears, and stood aside spontaneously.

"It's your turn."

Steward Sun waved again, and this time a dozen girls came out. Each of them was as beautiful as a flower, like a bud about to bloom. If Shen Xiangwan hadn't known that they were selecting servants, he would have almost thought that she was selecting a concubine.

"Manager Sun, I want a maid who can serve people, not a bed warmer."

Shen Xiangwan rubbed her forehead speechlessly. She didn't reject beautiful women, but it was obvious at first glance that these people were not capable of serving others. Didn't she see that some of the bold ones were secretly flirting with Wei Chengyi?
"this···"

Manager Sun's forehead darkened, and he coughed twice in embarrassment before saying, "How about you choose the children first, and I'll find you a new batch of maids later?"

He was not blind, so he naturally saw those who were not well behaved. He admitted that he deliberately chose good-looking ones. After all, the master's appearance, figure and temperament were there, and the maid couldn't be ugly, right? Who would have thought that his good intentions would go wrong? Let's see how he would deal with them after he went down.

"Ah."

What happened just now was just a small episode, and Shen Xiangwan didn't take it to heart. Her eyes slowly moved between the children. They should all be four or five years old. They looked at her timidly with red eyes, and when they met her gaze, they quickly lowered their heads. Some even sobbed.

"Just him."

Shen Xiangwan pointed at a chubby child and paused for a moment before saying, "Manager Sun, does he have any family? If so, let them come out. If they are suitable, I will buy them all."

"Yes, yes, Madam is really kind and beautiful."

Manager Sun was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly praised her. In their line of work, they were used to seeing couples and children break up, but this was the first time he had seen such a kind woman like Shen Xiangwan.

“Is she beautiful and kind?”

Looking at him meaningfully, Shen Xiangwan picked up the teacup and took a sip. From her past life to this life, she never thought she was kind. In fact, to some specific people, she was no different from a devil, such as Shen Xiangyue.

"Forehead···"

As if realizing something, Manager Sun chuckled and said, "I'll go and bring his family over."

After saying that, he stood up and left, taking the rest of the people with him.

The child chosen by Shen Xiangwan stood there alone, feeling a little scared and curious, and occasionally looked up to peek at Shen Xiangwan.
