Chapter 125 Is it possible that the boss is a cat?

Ten people reported one after another.

Hu Mianmian pursed her lips and calculated as she listened.

The matchmaker pulled out a grown-up girl and a young boy.

"Little Miss, these two are the best. Not only are they smart, they can also read!"

Hu Mianmian waved her hands and said, "Move aside, I want these two."

She pointed with her little hand and chose a little girl who was as thin as a bean sprout and looked only seven or eight years old.

The other one chose the oldest boy, who was about thirteen years old. He had a handsome face, but his cheeks were sunken due to his thinness.

The matchmaker was stunned for a moment: "Young lady, these two are in poor health and can be blown away by a gust of wind. How can they help you with your work in the shop?"

Hu Mianmian didn't say anything more. She put down her little feet and said in a baby voice, "Linlang, give me the money. These two people can stay. The rest can go."

Linlang immediately stepped forward and took out some silver from her silver bag.

"These two men are thin, so the price is one tael each. Auntie, keep the silver and leave quickly."

Linlang pushed the matchmaker and the rest of the little girls and boys out.

The matchmaker kept shouting, "Hey! Hey! Miss, please buy one more. It's not easy for me to come here."

Linlang turned around and looked at Hu Mianmian's expression.

Hu Mianmian raised her chin, and Linlang understood and took out three taels of silver and put it in the matchmaker's hand.

"Okay, if you ask for more our young lady will get angry."

The matchmaker had no choice but to accept it.

Nowadays, there is no war, and the price of selling slaves is not high. It is better to have something than nothing.

After the matchmaker took her people away, Hu Mianmian looked at the two people she left behind.

"What are your names?"

The older boy said, "My dear Miss, I am a slave named Agou."

The other little girl was much more reserved, shrinking back and whispering: "Your servant, your servant Mu Jin."

Hu Mianmian's eyes lit up: "Your name is nice, but as for you... Agou Agou, it's really not nice. How about I change your name?"

Ah Gou immediately rubbed his head in embarrassment: "I am the youngest in the family. I was born with congenital deficiencies. Everyone says that it is easy to raise a humble life, so my parents gave me this name."

"Since Miss has bought me, I belong to you. You can give me any name you want, as long as you like."

Hu Mianmian nodded, thought for a moment and said, "Business requires prosperity. From now on, you should be called Ah Chang."

"Thank you, Miss, for the name!"

"Mujin is a nice name, so I won't change it."

After saying that, Hu Mianmian looked at Linlang, and Linlang took out two incense sticks and gave one to each of them.

The little guy explained softly, "I'm in the business of helping people fulfill their wishes. That is, when you light this incense stick, before the incense burns out, the wishes you make can be directly transmitted to the ears of the gods."

"Since you two have become my friends, I will give you two incense sticks as a greeting gift. Make your wishes~"

Hu Mianmian was smiling.

Linlang stepped forward to help light the incense.

But Achang and Mujin looked at the incense in their hands with a dull look, as if they didn't know how to use them.

Ah Chang asked: "Miss, this...speak directly to it?"

"Yes, if you have any wishes, feel free to tell me. But I have to remind you that you cannot make wishes that violate worldly principles, otherwise you will be punished."

After Hu Mianmian finished speaking, Achang thought about it carefully.

He closed his eyes and said in a pious tone: "God, please let my parents and thirteen sisters and brothers have enough food!"

Achang was the fourteenth child in the family. He was sold because they could not afford to raise so many children. After he finished speaking, Linlang took the incense and put it into the incense burner beside him.

"That's it... that's all? Has the God heard it?"

Hu Mianmian nodded and smiled: "Yes, it's very simple, right?"

She looked at Mu Jin: "What about you? Why don't you make a wish?"

The little girl Mu Jin was born timid, and now her face was full of an expression that was speechless.

Suddenly, she knelt down crying.

"Miss, the gods can't control my affairs. I just want to ask you for help!"

"what happened to you?"

Mu Jin sobbed and wiped her tears: "I was born in Liantai County. When I was four years old, I went to the street with my family to watch the lanterns, but I was kidnapped by human traffickers and came all the way to the capital."

"But, I know clearly that I was kidnapped. My parents are still at home, and they must have been crying their hearts out. The matchmaker is not easy to talk to. She would beat and scold me whenever I wanted to go home."

"Miss, I beg you, please be kind and let me go home."

Linlang was surprised: "Liantai County? It's in Yunzhou, which is too far away. It's close to the sea. It's not easy for you to go back."

Mu Jin pleaded bitterly: "I know, but thinking of my parents at home, I have to go back. Please show mercy, young lady!"

Hu Mianmian remained silent.

The reason why she chose Achang and Mujin was because she calculated their horoscopes.

Knowing that they have no one to rely on and their relatives are estranged.

Only such a person can help her with her work wholeheartedly.

Mu Jin's face looks like her parents died young.

But seeing her crying so sadly, Hu Mianmian couldn't bear to refuse.

The little fellow thought about it and asked Linlang to take out fifty taels of silver for travel expenses.

"This is for you to take home, Linlang. Arrange two more people from the mansion to send her back home."

Mu Jin was flattered: "Miss, I can go back by myself. I don't want to trouble you to take care of me like this!"

"It's okay. You're only a few years older than me. What if I let you go back alone and you run into bad guys?"

Mu Jin thought it made sense, so she pursed her lips, took the silver, and kowtowed to thank Hu Mianmian.

Ah Chang sighed beside him: "Miss is really kind-hearted!"

After Linlang made some arrangements, half an hour later, Mu Jin got on the carriage and left.

Hu Mianmian stood at the door with her hands behind her back. Her big round eyes were dark and beautiful, with a hint of calmness.

Linlang asked, "Young lady, now that Mu Jin has left, do we need to hire one more person?"

"No need," Hu Mianmian turned and went back to the store, "She will come back. She has no one to rely on."

As the little princess of the nine-tailed fox clan, if she can't even read faces correctly, how can she help King Zhou to reincarnate and govern the country?
The little guy has confidence in his own judgment.

Ah Chang secretly felt that his master looked only four years old, but he acted like a little adult, making people feel that he was intimidating without even getting angry.

But just as he thought this, Hu Mianmian, who had returned to the shop, pounced on the account book, sobbing and crying like crazy.

"On the first day of business, we haven't made any money yet, but we've already given away fifty taels. Oh, how am I going to explain this to the big boss when he comes... Never mind, he's rich, so he won't care."

Hu Mianmian calmed herself down.

Ah Chang was curious: "Big Boss? Aren't you the boss?"

"We have another boss. He is usually not available to show up. I will introduce you to him next time he comes to the store. But he has a bad temper, so you have to be careful when you speak, otherwise he will meow."

Achang listened in silence.

Meow? Could it be that the boss is a cat?
