Chapter 4 The Days of the Wealthy Landlord
"Sir, this is Ying'er, who was the most popular girl in our building back then, and she is still the best singer in our building now.
This is Miao'er, who is the best at playing the flute, and her flute sounds melodious. Several girls who are popular in the building now have learned the flute from her.
This is Yun'er, her father was a scholar in the past, well-educated and sensible, and she has been practicing calligraphy, painting and chess since she was a child, and she is also extraordinary. She is a famous talented woman in our building. It's a pity that she is unlucky and married to a gambler husband, who sold her to us after losing the gambling.
This is Xian'er, who dances gracefully, is proficient in many kinds of dances, and has a piano skill that makes people linger." Aunt Lan introduced to Feng Tianzong attentively.
Feng Tianzong looked up and saw that the four girls were all pretty, but they were dressed a little old. Ying'er was tall, and the most eye-catching thing was that her chest seemed to be secretly stuffed with something, which made it look bulging.
Miao'er is a little short, but her facial features are delicate, her mouth is like a cherry, and her upper lip is slightly pouted, which makes her mouth look even smaller, which makes Feng Tianzong unable to help but fantasize.
Yun'er has a bookish air and a timid look, which makes people want to bully her.
Xian'er is also tall, holding a zither in her arms, and her long legs are impressive.
"Not bad, not bad, Aunt Lan, please take a look at how much it costs to redeem these four girls. After the formalities are completed, you can all go back to the mansion with me." Feng Tianzong nodded with satisfaction.
"Sir, they have been in the building for many years and have been tempered. The body contract is not expensive. You can redeem them with 20 or 30 taels of silver. Let's count it as 20 taels, and you can give 80 taels of silver." Aunt Lan bowed and smiled.
Feng Tianzong pushed the gold ingots on the table forward and said, "The remaining money can help me find a cook who can cook delicious dishes."
This trip to the brothel yielded a lot of gains. Feng Tianzong happily bought all the carriages of Yihonglou. The madam, Aunt Lan, plus a pretty cook, Ying'er, Miao'er, Yun'er, and Xian'er, four teachers, just enough to be pulled back by a carriage.
When Feng Tianzong left, the little girls were fetching water. After he came back from a tour of Yihonglou, these little girls were still noisy about fetching water. They didn't do any serious work.
Wan'er and her daughter had already cooked the porridge. Many little girls didn't even wash their faces, but squatted by the pot with a bowl in their hands, looking like beggars waiting for porridge.
Seeing Feng Tianzong come in, the originally noisy yard suddenly became quiet. The girls who were still noisy just now suddenly became timid quails again.
"Auntie Lan, you see, I bought these girls to be maids. Your task is to teach them the rules and how to serve me.
And Ying'er, you will teach them to sing songs from tomorrow. Miao'er, you will teach them to play the flute. Yun'er, your task is the most important. Teaching them to read, play chess, and draw is secondary.
Xian'er, you will teach them to play the piano and dance.
It is not necessary for all these little girls to be proficient, but at least they should understand, and then focus on training them based on their talents.
In short, I will leave these little girls to you, and try to train a group of qualified maids for me, the young master." Feng Tianzong turned around and said to Auntie Lan and her group behind him.
"Oh, by the way, Aunt Lan, go buy a few more pieces of cloth tomorrow, teach these little girls needlework, and buy them some clothes. The clothes they are wearing now will be burned after they take a bath."
There are so many lice in these rags. These little girls are so poor that they can't bear to throw anything away. After taking a bath, they may pick them up and wear them again.
"Master, don't worry. I am the best at training these little girls." Aunt Lan said confidently.
"Master, before these little girls are trained, won't there be no one to serve you? Why don't I take Ying'er, Miao'er, Yun'er, Xian'er and others to serve you?"
Feng Tianzong originally planned to go back to his room to practice puppetry and make a few puppets as guards. After Aunt Lan said this, he was a little bit tempted.
Who is Aunt Lan? It can be said that she is the most observant profession. Feng Tianzong hesitated for a moment, and she noticed her true intentions.
"Master, you are a master of immortality. How can you do mundane things by yourself? It just so happens that you haven't seen their talents yet? Let them show you when the time comes.
After I train these little girls, I will serve you and let you see my skills." Aunt Lan said seductively.
Feng Tianzong, who has been single for more than 20 years, was tempted by Aunt Lan's words: "Forget it, I will make the puppet tomorrow. There is no rush. Anyway, I have plenty of time."
After making up his mind, Feng Tianzong nodded reservedly and said: "Okay, since you want to show your talents, then this immortal master will waste some time to judge your skills."
"This is the life that a great immortal cultivator should live." Feng Tianzong sighed happily, thinking about the broken wooden house he lived in in the Puppet Sect before. It was simply not a life for human beings. One is heaven and the other is hell. The mortal world is heaven, and the immortal world is hell.
By the evening, Auntie Lan had already instructed the maids to boil water, and she came in with a basin of water for washing feet, followed by five maids.
"Master, I am here to wash your feet and teach these maids. I have divided them into ten groups, five people in each group, and one group will come in to serve you every day." Auntie Lan twisted her waist and walked in front of Feng Tianzong to explain.
"I will only demonstrate it to you once, go back and form a team to practice." Auntie Lan turned her head and said sternly to the maids behind her.
Put the wooden basin at Feng Tianzong's feet, kneel on the ground respectfully, lift one of Feng Tianzong's feet and put it on her thigh, take off her shoes and socks with both hands, and gently put it into the wooden basin.
Gently teasing the water, her fingers gently rubbed Feng Tianzong's feet. "Come here one by one, learn how to wash the young master's feet."
"Yes" The little girls knelt around the footbath, took turns to stretch out their little hands and wash Feng Tianzong's feet like Aunt Lan.
"Young master, do you want me to warm your bed tonight?" Aunt Lan asked softly.
Aunt Lan was about thirty years old, and compared to those little girls, she was naturally older, but she might be a few years younger than Feng Tianzong, who was cultivating immortals. For him, it was quite tempting.
Feng Tianzong still had some confidence in his self-control. Although Aunt Lan was not younger than the little girl, she still had charm and was very seductive.
