But the question is, how could Yaxing keep taking them in?
Just yesterday, the shopkeeper had already said that if the family could no longer take action, he would consider sending them to other tooth shops for sale.
By then, the family will never be reunited again.
After hearing this, Shen Shuangshuang felt a little hesitant.
Her mother-in-law asked her to buy only one person, but she actually wanted to buy two, one for the mother-in-law and one for the maid.
If Ms. Zheng only has one daughter, she will definitely buy two of them without hesitation.
But she also brought a man with her, which made her a little embarrassed.
However, this Zheng man can read, which is of some use...
"How about you call her family here to take a look?" Shen Shuangshuang said through her teeth.
Yaren was stunned.
Unexpectedly, Shen Shuangshuang was really interested in buying three people.
Zheng was so excited that she kowtowed to Shen Shuang again.
"Okay, I'll call someone!" Yaren said quickly.
"Yes. By the way, let's take her away." Shen Shuangshuang stopped the person. He glanced at Qian who kept looking at him.
Ya Ren looked at Qian.
"Okay!" He agreed.
Then, he called Qian away.
Qian left with Yaren, looking back at Shen Shuangshuang several times on the way.
I regretted that I didn't want to go with her just now.
If she buys three people at once, the lady's family situation may be better than she thought.
In addition, people are very considerate of their servants.
It's not easy to find a master who agreed to buy out Zheng's family just because she begged.
Unfortunately, a missed opportunity is a missed opportunity.
The lady was already unhappy with her. Even if she asked to stay, I'm afraid no one would want her.
No matter what, if she continued to wait in the tooth shop, she would always get a wealthy family to buy her.
After Yaren and Qian left, Shen Shuangshuang asked Zheng to get up.
Zheng couldn't afford it, and she wanted to use this to force Shen Shuangshuang to buy their family of three.
Shen Shuangshuang was a little unhappy.
"You'd better get up. When your family comes over later, I will assess you."
"Whether I buy you or not depends on your assessment results. It has nothing to do with anything else." Shen Shuangshuang said coldly.
Zheng's heart trembled and she was a little scared.
Seeing that Shen Shuangshuang was colder than before, after some hesitation, he stood up.
After a while, Zheng's man and daughter came.
Zheng's man is forty-five years old, a little thin, but very energetic.
Because he has read books, he looks a little gentle.
And her daughter is in her prime, only sixteen years old.
His face was a little dirty, but it was easy to see that he looked good.
But she kept her head down, making it difficult for people to see her face clearly.
"That's it for the three of them. Madam, if you have anything you want to ask, you can ask them now." Yaren said.
Shen Shuangshuang looked at the three people.
"I know you three want to be bought together. My family originally only needed a wife to help with housework, but since we have a workshop at home and need help with other things, we can buy two more people."
After hearing this, the three Zheng family members were all overjoyed.
"But whether you can follow me or not depends on your ability." Shen Shuangshuang continued.
After saying that, Shen Shuangshuang looked at Zheng's man.
"Uncle Wu, maybe you can write and do math?" he asked.
Uncle Wu immediately took a step forward.
"Go back to my wife, I will."
Shen Shuangshuang nodded.
"Then let me give you a test."
With that said, Shen Shuangshuang memorized a few sentences that were useful for elementary school students in this era, and asked Uncle Wu to answer the following.
Uncle Wu answered easily.
Shen Shuang's eyes moved, and he began to test Uncle Wu's arithmetic again.
From one digit addition and subtraction, to two digits, to three digits, and then to multiplication and division.
Wu Bodu answered well.
Shen Shuangshuang was satisfied.
"Aside from reading, writing and arithmetic, can you drive a car? How is your strength?" Shen Shuangshuang asked again.
Uncle Wu became a little nervous.
"Go back to my wife, I'm better at driving. I'm afraid... I'm not as strong as a young man."
Shen Shuangshuang understood roughly.
"Okay. Next one." He said.
Ignoring the worried expressions of Uncle Wu and his wife, Shen Shuangshuang looked at Wu Xia, the daughter of Uncle Wu and his wife.
In fact, we can guess from Wu Xia's name that Uncle Wu used to be a scholar.
Otherwise, there are so many names like Daya, Erya, Dahua and so on in Dahe Village, but why is there no one named Wu Xia?
Wu Xia still lowered his head, feeling embarrassed and nervous.
"Wu Xia, maybe you can write and calculate?" Shen Shuangshuang asked.
The father can write and do math, and the daughter may also have the opportunity to read and write.
The main reason is that the Wu family only has one daughter, and she was only born in her twenties. Although this daughter is not a son, she must feel sorry for her.
"Go back to my wife, I will." Wu Xia replied in a low voice. His head was still buried low.
Shen Shuangshuang glanced at Wu Xia and began to compare.
As a result, Wu Xia's answer speed was actually faster than Uncle Wu.
This surprised Shen Shuangshuang, and he didn't care so much about Wu Xia's shortcomings of being indifferent and having a small voice.
"Okay. Next one." Shen Shuangshuang looked at Zheng again.
Unlike her father and daughter, Zheng cannot read or write.
I know a little bit about arithmetic, but I can only do some simple calculations.
Although uneducated, Zheng's advantages are obvious, that is, she is good at housework and is also good at sewing and sewing.
After questioning the three people for a while, Shen Shuangshuang knew what was going on.
He turned around and looked at Yato.
"Do the three of them have any illnesses?" he asked.
Yaren's face straightened.
"Don't worry, madam, they are all healthy people. If they are sick, we will inform them in advance."
"We Zhengyuan Yaxing have been rooted in Shangyang Town for many years, and our reputation for honesty and trustworthiness is not something we gained overnight!"
Shen Shuangshuang nodded.
"Then what is the quotation for each of the three of them?" he continued to ask.
"Uncle Wu has twenty taels, the Zheng family has ten taels, and Wu Xiama has thirty taels." Ya Ren said. When Wu Xia's quotation was mentioned, Yaren paused for a moment.
The three members of the Wu family all looked down at their toes, feeling uneasy.
Shen Shuangshuang frowned.
"It's too expensive." He said.
Yaren smiled flatteringly.
"If Madam buys them all, we can charge you two taels less of the total price, Madam."
Shen Shuangshuang shook his head.
"Although Uncle Zheng can write and calculate, he is not young anymore and his physical strength is not good enough. At most fifteen taels."
"Zheng can only do simple arithmetic. Although she can do rough work, she is still not young. At most... eight taels."
"As for Wu Xia... although she is a young woman, she is timid and skinny. She is worth 20 taels. This is because she is young and has some color." Shen Shuangshuang said with slight disgust.
Not paying attention to the surprised face of the Italian, he continued: "If you want the three of us to buy it together, you have to give me a cheaper price. A total of forty taels."
At this time, Yaren's eyes widened.
This lady is so ruthless in bargaining.
"No! No way! How can we cut so many?" Yaren said quickly.
"In this case, you give me fifty-five taels! You can take this family of three!"
Shen Shuangshuang's expression was cold.
