Although it has been a long time since the incident, Ye Zhenzhen has never forgotten how her second uncle Ye Shiming and his son-in-law Xu Anhao were exiled.
With Xu Anhao's deliberate connivance, Ye Shiming purchased good land and made good people his servants. The Cui Mansion was sued by the imperial censor for allowing his second uncle from his mother's family to go rampant in the countryside and force good people to become lowly. Although it was later discovered that Xu Anhao was a talented person.
The culprit, Weng and his son-in-law were both exiled from the capital, but the Feng family behind Xu Anhao was still watching.
Her natal family was still being watched, let alone Cui Mansion's actions.
Ye Zhenzhen dared to believe that if she asked the Zhang family and the Sun family to sell themselves as slaves today, tomorrow the imperial censor would be able to refer to her - Cui Weizhen was the one who advocated the release of citizenship for refugees and good people. If the Cui family dared to take the lead in disrupting the situation, that would be a disaster.
A huge disaster.
So she rejected the two of them without hesitation: "The imperial court has its own laws. Nowadays, it no longer advocates that good people sell themselves into slavery. The Cui Mansion cannot openly defy the imperial edict. I already understand your loyalty. Living and death contracts mean nothing.
, don’t worry too much, just feel free to work at home.”
The Cui family was so closely connected that Ye Zhenzhen did not release them. However, Yuxiu, Hong Zhiyuan, Aunt Guilan and her son were all released. They and Zhang San followed Cui from Linxi County.
They have an extraordinary bond with each other. Although they are now living in a living contract, it does not affect their loyalty at all, and they even work harder on their jobs.
It can be seen that there is no difference between a living contract and a death contract, it just depends on whether the master can surrender his servants.
Ye Zhenzhen could think clearly, but Zhang and Sun, who were deeply influenced by current ideas, couldn't think about it. They didn't dare to quarrel with their master, but they still had a look of regret on their faces.
Waiter Yuxiu stood next to them and kindly persuaded them: "You two wet nurses, don't be sorry. Our family is also a living couple, so we don't hinder anything on weekdays. Besides, only good people can take the imperial examination. My younger brother won the title of Langjun."
Grace, I have been studying hard recently to prepare for next year's child exam. If Sanlang and Shilang succeed in their studies in the future, they might be able to earn a phoenix crown and harem for the two wet nurses."
Zhang's and Sun's worldviews seemed to have been impacted, and their expressions went blank for a moment. They looked at Yuxiu blankly and murmured: "Feng Guan Xia Pei? Are we worthy?"
They were as humble as dust, and they only hoped that their son could read a few big characters so that he could find a job to make a living in the future. As for his son taking the imperial examination and becoming an official, they never dared to hope for it.
Officials and gentlemen are all literary stars in the world, so how could they be reincarnated into their family?
Yuxiu had been with Ye Zhenzhen for a long time and was deeply influenced by her thoughts. She even sneered at the idea of being born with a low destiny. She couldn't help but said loudly: "Madam, I said that the prince and general Xiang Ning have the guts."
?Although we are from a humble background, if we study hard, we will be able to stand out and change our family in the future. Sanlang and Shilang have been taught by the Cui clan, and their starting point is already one level higher than that of many scholars in the world. Why worry about not being able to get into the profession in the future? "
Yes, Cui's famous family has taught many talented and talented children. Their husband is one of them. Under the careful training of the elders, even a piece of rotten wood can be carved into a talented person.
.
When Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Sun thought that one day they could rely on their son to become a master, they were so excited that their whole bodies trembled and their eyes turned red with heat.
It turns out that Madam doesn’t dislike them, but has good intentions.
They bowed to Ye Zhenzhen sincerely: "Madam's great kindness will be unforgettable by the slaves. From now on, whenever the master sends orders, the whole family will obey."
Ye Zhenzhen gave Yuxiu an appreciative look before asking Zhang and Sun to get up. Today they were completely subdued, and they were no longer afraid that their family would cause trouble for Wangzi.
It can be foreseen what will happen to Sanlang and Shilang in the future. They are both labeled as Cui Mansion and will rely on Cui Mansion throughout their lives. Naturally, they will follow Wang Zai's lead. In this way, Wang Zai will have two more capable men.
Convincing people with virtue is the best way to govern your subordinates.
