Xie Rongzhao didn't know whether it was chosen for Xie Chunhua.
It's just that the girls here can barely have enough to eat and clothing. They grew up here in the first few years. Although the life was a bit harder, they were free at least. Once they were picked to be maids, they would be slaves. They wanted to turn over in the future. It can be said to be wishful thinking.
However, there is finally a way out, and he will not end up in a lowly place like a brothel or Chuguan.
Some children here are adopted and taken away every year, but they are all very young.
Adults also know that the younger a child is, the less memory he has and the easier it is to develop family ties. Therefore, children over five years old generally have few opportunities to be adopted.
Last year, Xie Rongzhao came up with the recipe for eating Chuanchuan, and Liu Ruolan took over, and Fang Jiahe stepped in as the shopkeeper. The newly opened store was called Xiangxiang Chuanchuan shop.
This kind of food is rare in the capital, but it is said to be common in Shu. I just heard that the skewers in Shu are spicy and spicy, and many people can't stand it. So Xie Rongzhao later improved the recipe and came up with several flavors. Guests can choose by themselves.
When the Chuanchuan shop opened last year, Xie Rongzhao asked Liu Ruolan to pick up three and a half young men from Jishantang, one eleven and two ten years old. To put it bluntly, they are all children.
But there is no way, these people have no parents, and Jishantang cannot always support them, so they have to find a way to make a living on their own.
When Liu Ruolan picked up three boys in one go, the grandmother of Jishan Hall was extremely happy.
With three less mouths, they can make careful calculations here again.
I am a half-grown boy and a poor man.
These three boys are now at the age where they can eat. Can the nuns expect them to go out and find work quickly?
The three of them were tidied up, and apart from being thin, they had no other problems, and because they were young and had nimble hands and feet, they worked quickly.
This kind of snack shop is actually aimed at ordinary people. Some dignitaries also want to eat, and they always send a boy to buy it. I will never hurt my face by coming to a place like this.
The shop is not big, with a total of six tables set up inside, and they are all low tables and stools. The shop does not serve alcohol. If guests want to drink, there is a liquor shop next door. You can buy it there and bring it over. , or directly ask the store over there to deliver it.
The three boys' daily tasks are simple, including washing vegetables, cutting vegetables, and skewering.
Every day's skewers are freshly made and cannot be left overnight. If they are not sold out, then they can eat them themselves or send them to Jishan Hall.
In the first month, the Fang family couldn't figure out the weight. Sometimes it was more, sometimes less. It wasn't until a month later that it stabilized. They even sold short every day. Occasionally, they took care of the leftovers themselves due to bad weather. It would be appropriate to send part of it to Jishan Hall.
Now that Xie Rongzhao heard Zhao Ying mention these children who had reached their age, she felt uncomfortable.
There was only so much she could do to help.
It was not easy to convince my grandma to pick up three people from here last year.
This year, their family committee really has no room to arrange for more people.
Every time at this time, Xie Rongzhao feels that there are so many poor people in the world, and how much can she help with her own efforts?
In the evening, Xie Rongzhao, who was depressed because of this matter, was called out by the beautiful father.
"You are absent-minded while eating, what happened?"
Xie Rongzhao couldn't bring himself to cheer up, so he brought up the matter of Jishantang languidly.
"My little boy is kind, but your own power is limited after all. Dad doesn't object to you doing good deeds, but we still have to do what we can."
Xie Rongzhao nodded, she naturally understood this.
Just understanding is one thing, but feeling uncomfortable is another.
Xie Xiuwen couldn't bear to see her so depressed, so he compensated: "How old are the suitable girls you mentioned? Do they have skills?"
Xie Rongzhao's eyes lit up: "Their female celebrities are all excellent."
The corner of Xie Xiuwen's mouth twitched slightly, female celebrity? Isn’t this what all girls do?
Can this also be called craftsmanship?
Liu Ruolan on the side was extremely happy.
"Okay, this is not something we should worry about. Later I will ask Mrs. Zhao or Mrs. Wang to see who still wants a maid who is quick and agile. I recommend them."
Xie Rongzhao hesitated to speak, could she just be a maid?
She originally thought she could become an embroiderer. Although life would be harder, she would still be free.
Xie Xiuwen seemed to have thought of something and comforted: "There is no need to tell those ladies. Jishantang actually arranges a way out for these women. Some of them will join the Weaving Bureau under the Ministry of Household Affairs, and they can be specially given to them." Officials make official uniforms, or they make military uniforms for soldiers."
Xie Rongzhao's eyes lit up, and he complained a little: "Why didn't Dad tell me before?"
"Dad, I forgot about it before. But not everyone can join the weaving bureau. It depends on their own skills."
"Can daddy help me?"
Xie Xiuwen smiled and said: "Don't worry, I will say hello to my colleagues over there. Just try to let them give priority to the girls from Jishantang."
In fact, some of the little girls living in Jishan Hall would have come back to do some embroidery work every day. This was considered the best way out.
Xie Rongzhao couldn't hold it back for a moment and told the story about the Xie family on Anhe Street going to Jishan Hall to buy a maid.
Xie Xiuwen frowned. If it was prepared for Xie Chunhua, it was obviously abnormal.
Because there are rules in the palace, ordinary beautiful women are not allowed to take maids privately into the palace.
Unless they are already high-ranking ladies, they will be specially allowed by the Holy Emperor to send several servants from their parents' families to serve them, but the number is also limited.
Normally, if you want to control these servants, you will naturally choose women who have children at home, or women who have family members outside the palace to serve in the palace. How can you choose a few orphans to serve in the palace?
It was obvious that the Xie family was not interested in drinking, but had other agendas.
Sure enough, a few days later, Xie Xiuwen sent someone to find out that Mrs.
Where did the less one go?
Xie Xiuwen couldn't help but think of the rumors he had heard before. Could it be that Beauty Xie really couldn't conceive Ziyi anymore, so she thought of a plan to give birth to a child through borrowing her belly?
As soon as this thought came up, Xie Xiuwen felt a chill go down his spine.
This is the first time that I have truly come into contact with the secrets of the royal family.
He was not sure whether Xie Meiren wanted to hide this from the emperor, but just thinking about it made him feel frightened!
The Xie family is so courageous!
Xie Xiuwen did not dare to tell others about such a major event, so he could only hide it carefully, thinking that he would have to be more careful about Xie Mingyi and his family in the future.
A few days later, Mrs. Xie categorically denied the rumor that Xie Chunhua was going to enter the palace.
In this way, Xie Xiuwen confirmed his previous guess.
Xie Mingyi’s family must stay far away!
