Chapter 376 Nanny apologizes
Bai Ling's face darkened. How could this child not know how to adapt at all!
Why is he so stubborn? These vulgar people in the village don't remember or care, why does he have to catch her nanny!
She was dissatisfied and blamed: "Qian'er, you have to look at the owner when beating a dog. She is a servant beside my aunt. You should not embarrass her for my aunt's sake."
The people in Shanshui Village didn't expect that Bai Ziqian still remembered asking the old nanny to apologize and was unwilling to back down.
The candy in my hand was sweet and the cakes were good, but at this moment, they were not as good as Bai Ziqian's respect. It turned out that the feeling of being respected and respected was so sweet and good, and I had never encountered it before.
However, "Ziqian, it's okay, we don't care, don't offend your aunt." Wang Guifen persuaded in a low voice.
Aunt is an elder, and disrespecting the elders will make rumors among farmers, not to mention a big family like the Bai family.
"Yes." Others also said quietly.
They used to care, but knew it was useless. Now they know that Bai Ziqian can indeed get it back. But compared with the suppression that Bai Ziqian may suffer in the future, they really don't care at all!
They spoke in a low voice, not wanting the other party to know that they were persuading Bai Ziqian, as if they were holding him back, and thus sneer at him.
Bai Ziqian's fair and noble face was smiling wantonly, looking at Bai Ling and not giving in: "Aunt also said that she was a servant, but the ones around me are different, they are my friends, how can a servant be compared with a friend?
Since the servant was disrespectful to her friend, said the wrong thing and did the wrong thing, I didn't beat her, fined her or sold her, and only asked her to apologize verbally. If it was still embarrassing, it would be better to sell her."
When she heard that she was going to be sold, the old nanny's face turned pale, and she looked at Bai Ling in horror. Seeing that Bai Ling's face was not expected, her heart was shocked, and she turned to Bai Ziqian to beg for mercy: "Young Master, I look down on people with my dog eyes and speak badly. I'm sorry, please be generous and forgive me this time."
The words of the lady and Mr. Bai just now were very clear.
The lady said that you have to look at the owner when beating a dog. She is a dog and a servant; and Mr. Bai said that these villagers are his friends, and the difference is obvious!
She, she can't be sold.
Bai Ling's face became even uglier.
Bai Ziqian corrected calmly: "Is it me who you spoke rudely to? Are you going to say sorry to me?"
Mammy immediately changed direction and said to the villagers: "I was inappropriate in my words before, I'm sorry."
"Okay, leave quickly, don't come to our village anymore." Boss Wu came out and waved his hand to drive them away.
This family is not good, you should have less contact with Ziqian, he will say the words that offend people, and he will do the things that drive people away.
Bai Ling threw her hands in hatred and got into the carriage.
These villagers are really vulgar, they don't understand any etiquette and human relationships. If Bai Ziqian mixes with them, he will have a low life in the future!
They only know to let Ziqian stand up for them, without thinking about the consequences, and Ziqian is also a reckless man who would rather offend her aunt, the wife of an official, to help these useless villagers, and he doesn't think about whether the wife of the county magistrate can help him as much as the villagers?
When she sees her mother, she has to talk to her. Qian'er is not up to the task. Forcing the huge family business to him will only destroy the accumulation of several generations of the Bai family!
The two carriages left the village. Instead of being quiet, the village became more lively.
It was even lively to the point of boiling.
Tomorrow is the New Year. Originally, they bought New Year's goods, but something unexpected happened the night before. Who would be in the mood to celebrate the New Year?
Just now, Bai Ziqian distributed sugar and cakes, and also distributed a lot of brightly colored cloths. Isn't the atmosphere of the New Year here?
Especially the sugar is the very rare rock sugar in the maid's mouth. Don't say it, it is crystal clear and really looks like small ice cubes, and it tastes very sweet.
Such precious sugar, Bai Ziqian did not keep a single piece and gave them all to them!
And the cakes, they also saw that they were made of yam powder weighing several hundred taels per pound. Oh, they just felt that they were not worthy of it after eating it!
The cloth is also red, green, and azure blue, and the color is very bright.
The brightly colored fabrics cost several dozen coins more per piece in the cloth shop. This kid picked the best gifts!
Bringing food and daily necessities back, every household was grateful for Bai Ziqian's kindness, and the children's happiness was even more obvious.
Wang Guifen and Zhang Hui brought a lot of things home. Their head, Lin, was not a person who liked to be lively. There were also a few very young children under them. Regardless of whether they were big or small, Bai Ziqian distributed them all, and did not treat them differently based on age.
This seriousness and attention made everyone feel warm in their hearts.
There was not much fabric, so it was definitely not enough to make clothes, and it was even more of a waste to use it for shoe uppers, because these were all silk!
Zhao Lan touched the extremely smooth silk material and allocated it carefully: "Make two head flowers for each girl and two headbands for each boy, all in bright colors, just in time for the New Year, festive and joyful."
Zhang Hui's eyes lit up when she heard it, and she wanted to start cutting immediately: "Let's work faster and make it in the afternoon, just in time for the New Year tomorrow!"
After saying that, she looked at Wang Guifen expectantly. Sister-in-law is one of the best needleworkers among the three of them and even the whole village!
Just when she was about to beg her sister-in-law to do it, she took over the cooking work at home, and heard Wang Guifen hesitantly ask: "This year is different from the past, do we want to celebrate a special year?"
Zhang Hui was confused, what is a special year?
Zhao Lan knew that this year was different from the past, not only because the world was in chaos, but also because of a major change in the village.
But how could they celebrate the New Year?
Wang Guifen explained in detail: "Before, we bought New Year's goods, and each household celebrated it by themselves. Even if there was chaos outside, it would not affect the village. When the time came, we would kill chickens and ducks and stew a rabbit, which would be extremely rich.
But now, one, everyone is not in the mood; the other is how will the Zhao family and the Sun family celebrate?"
The Fan family was not within their scope of concern, and she didn't care whether they lived a good life or not!
When they heard about the Zhao and Sun families, Zhang Hui and Zhao Lan also looked worried.
Yes, the two families had healthy children of at most 13 or 14 years old. Children of 13 or 14 years old in farmers' families can be used as adults, but the elders in the family were injured and unable to move. There were also chickens, ducks, geese, rabbits, and piglets and lambs caught from Shuiqing and raised in the back mountain. So many burdens fell on the children at the same time. It was already a great thing to be able to do it, not to mention whether they could do it well.
The villagers would go to help out when they were free, but they would never help to prepare the New Year's dinner during the New Year.
There were other families with many injured women.
The men usually did a lot of farm work, and their cooking skills were really not good, so they could only make do with the New Year's dinner.
"How about we celebrate together?"
