With a bang, the paper full of words was slapped on the table. The girls gathered around angrily. Half of the chicken bone in Xiao Letian's mouth was still exposed. They didn't know how to deal with these women who changed their faces.

"Okay, sir, you say one thing but do another, but you hate us so much? Why do you dislike us? You just expect us to leave?"
"What's going on with this contract? When did we become your employees? Are you going to drive us away from your home?"
The girls all know Braille to some extent, and they can all understand this contract. What is placed on the table is actually an employment contract that Xiao Letian wants to give them.
The contract was clearly written in black and white. From the day the contract was signed, Qingwen and others became free persons. All identity contracts were returned to themselves, and the women worked for a year to earn a year's money.
The contract is for a period of three years. If both parties have no objections at the end of the contract, it will be extended for three years. The girls have the right to unilaterally terminate the contract, which means they can leave Xiao Letian's home at will.
This is just a draft contract. The price offered by Xiao Letian is very generous. The annual salary is 300 Yingyang, which is in charge of food and housing. This has reached the level of a senior shopkeeper of Letian Foreign Company in Tanggu City. There is no one like this in the entire Qing Dynasty. What a favorable condition.
"You... why are you crying again..." Xiao Letian spat out the bones in his mouth and muttered, "Isn't this good for you? I'm not happy to give you freedom..."
"Freedom? Master, you just said you wanted to drive us away... Pay us to hire us for a few years while we are young, and then kick us away when we are old and lusty. Isn't that what you mean? Woo hoo hoo... "
A group of women gathered around Xiao Letian and burst into tears. If you push her and twist her, Xiao Letian will grin from the pain.
"No... you listen to my explanation... no... Amber, please don't pinch me... you all listen to me..." Xiao Letian was so angry that he jumped on the chair.
"Please be quiet...can't you just listen to what I have to say? This so-called contract is nothing more than the predecessors' efforts to confuse the eyes of future generations and deceive the foreign devils...I have all your contracts with you, so why should the foreigners still Those who are Protestant will think that you are all my concubines, which is not helpful for my diplomacy with them..."
"Now that you have signed this contract, I will return the deed of sale to you. In fact, it is just a show... Of course, if you really want to leave, I will not stop you. It is not impossible to pursue your own happiness like Fang Guan. ?”
"As for what you are worried about, there is no need at all. I, Xiao Letian, can support you for the rest of your life. As long as you don't leave, this will always be your home..."
When Xiao Letian said this, he pointed at the lamp and said, "I swear to the lamp that everything I say is true, not a single lie..."
It wasn't until Xiao Letian started to swear that the women stopped crying. If they thought about it carefully, if what the master said was true, it wouldn't be unacceptable. Anyway, life would be the same and there would still be money left.
Seeing that the girls calmed down, Xiao Letian finally breathed a sigh of relief. He thought to himself that he really didn't read the almanac when he went home this time. These tigresses are so powerful.
Just when Xiao Letian took a breath, a cold voice suddenly came from outside the door, "Master, can you guarantee it? But how long can you guarantee it?" The figure flashing out of the door was Qingwen.
I saw Qingwen's face was cold and her tone was icy. "I just want to ask the master, do I also have to sign this contract? Do I also get an annual salary of three hundred? In your eyes, am I not you?" Bought domestic prostitute?"
"No, no, no...I'm not even as good as a domestic prostitute. I'm just a wild prostitute hired with money...Is this the promise you made to me? It's just been a few hours, and you're going to give me a clue." A basin of ice water…”
"I, I, I..." Xiao Letian silenced Qingwen for a few words. He really slapped himself in the face. What should Qingwen do? I just ate her...
When Qingwen saw that Xiao Letian couldn't say anything, she confirmed what she was thinking: "Sisters, according to the laws of the Qing Dynasty, we all came here as dowries with the eldest lady. To put it bluntly, we are concubines, or we are married. Big girl... to put it harshly, we are just a group of domestic prostitutes..."
"But sisters, don't forget that as long as we stay in the master's house for one day, we are members of this family. We have to be taken care of by someone when we live, grow old, sick and die... and after signing this so-called contract, we have nothing to do with the master's family. It doesn’t matter, I have the conscience to support us for ten or twenty years, but what about the future?”
"In the future, there may be a young master who will take charge of the family and kick us out. At that time, we a bunch of old ladies, what other way can we survive besides jumping into the river?"
"Sisters, we can't sign... If we sign, we really have no hope at all... Wuwuwu..." Qingwen actually cried when she said this.
Now Xiao Letian finally realized it. He had never considered the power of habit. The people of the Qing Dynasty have been living in traditions for two hundred years, and many traditions have been passed down for thousands of years. This is not what Xiao Letian said. A word can change it.
The life I gave these girls was too comfortable. Even the maids of the prince's family may not have such good living conditions. Not only did they have enough food and clothing, but they also gave these girls a sense of security and belonging mentally.
They have regarded this place as their own home, even warmer than home, because there is a sense of security here that no one in the entire Qing Dynasty can give them.
Which girl from Jiaofangsi has never seen the tragedy of family destruction and death? Which one is not the charming lady coming out of the mansion? Moreover, in the Jiaofang Division, they have seen countless political tragedies. They talk about the Xinyou coup six years ago. How many people died... and how many daughters' families were betrayed...
Qingwen and the others are very smart and know that once they leave this home, it is impossible to find a better place. And in this Qing Dynasty, there is no one else who can respect and protect women except Xiao Letian.
It is under this mentality that a strong sense of personal attachment appears. They are afraid of losing this kind of life. The freedom Xiao Letian wants to give them is abandonment in their eyes.
"Hey... I still have a limited horizon. My sight is always limited to the Qing Dynasty, and I am always struggling to survive in the tradition... It seems that Fangguan's bravery is not innate, but only after traveling half a world. An epiphany..."
"Yes, it is precisely because of this trip to Europe that Fangguan and the others have broadened their horizons... It can be said that the world in Fangguan's eyes and the world in Qingwen's eyes are already completely different... They Our life paths have already parted ways long ago..."
Xiao Letian kept muttering in his heart. He was complaining about why he understood so slowly. Why did he forget to put himself in someone else's shoes? What a pig brain...
Just when Xiao Letian was blaming himself and thinking, Qingwen was angry. She couldn't understand why the master was so tender to her just now, why was he suddenly too lazy to say anything now? Even if you make up a random excuse, that's okay? Don’t girls just want to lie? Are you no longer interested in lying to me?
Silence...silence...what the hell are you silent about...
"Okay, okay... Xiao, you must be cruel... This is my life..." After saying that, Qingwen stamped her feet and rushed out into the garden.
"No, Qingwen is going to commit suicide..." The room immediately exploded. The older girls and mothers rushed out to chase her. The younger girls were so frightened that they cried.
A scream finally made Xiao Letian wake up. He was so frightened that he almost sat on the ground, "Stop her quickly..." After saying this, he chased after her like a gust of wind.
Qingwen's character is quite strong, even a bit extreme in modern terms. The tragedy in her childhood made her self-esteem extremely sensitive. The so-called Little Pepper's temper is actually due to the fear in his heart, the fear of the world.
But today, she had just been taken away by Xiao Letian, and she was at the most sensitive moment of her emotions. Suddenly such bad news came, and this extreme woman suddenly collapsed, and it was inevitable that she would become impulsive.
The yard where Xiao Letian was located was a small garden. A Taihu stone was just erected here half a year ago. Qingwen lowered her head and aimed at the Taihu stone. If she didn't die if she bumped into it, she would be knocked silly.
"Qingwen...I promise you, I won't let you sign the contract...Master, I was wrong...Isn't it okay if I am wrong..."
But now it's too late. No one can stop Qingwen in front of her, and her head is only less than three meters away from the stone. Now even she can't stand her feet.
Just at the critical moment, suddenly a dark shadow flashed on the Taihu stone and a familiar voice came over: "Oh, oh... little girl, why are you doing this..." As he spoke, a pair of heavy hands performed a Tai Chi formula, holding him. Qingwen's shoulder resolved her forward momentum.
Qingwen was led around three times before she stabilized her figure. At this time, the people in the courtyard finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Oh, Mr. Long is back... Fortunately you are here, otherwise it would have been... There's big trouble..."
The figure rushing down from the rockery was none other than Xiao Letian's personal bodyguard, Xiang Shaolong.
Xiao Letian hugged Qingwen. He wanted to give her some words, but looking at the pale girl, Xiao Letian couldn't be cruel at all.
Qingwen opened her eyes and saw Xiao Letian's handsome face. Looking at his worried eyes, the girl burst into tears.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
Xiao Letian's eyes were also red, "I want it, sir, I want it. If we don't leave, we won't leave... Then the contract won't be signed. No matter how the foreign devils scold me, what will happen even if they don't cooperate with me? Lord, I don't have it." They can make a career out of it with their help..."
"You all live a good life for me. Master, I will support you for the rest of your life..."
