Steward Luo added, "A total of six hundred taels of silver." Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”
Chen Afu guessed that the ten sparrows were worth money, but he didn't expect them to be worth so much money. In her opinion, no matter how good-looking the sparrow is, it can't compare to the smart and talkative Qiqi and Gray Ash. Qiqi and Gray may be worth this price together, but I didn't expect a sparrow to be worth so much money.
She was stunned, there were too many emergencies encountered today, which made her a little unable to react.
Is this all of a sudden rise from the poor to the rich?
She forced down the ecstasy in her heart, did not take the silver ticket, and asked, "That bird is so valuable?"
Steward Luo smiled, "My old marquis likes to collect birds, so my uncle also knows a little about birds." He said that it was the first time that the sparrow appeared in the territory of the Great Shun Dynasty. Two years ago, the people paid tribute to the emperor four, because the feathers were colorful and gorgeous, and the emperor named them ten finch. It's just that two have died, and now there are two left to live in the palace. ”
It turned out to be an extremely precious variety, no wonder it was so valuable. It seems that this bird only appeared in the Dashun Dynasty of this time and space a few years ago, and even the name of the ten sparrows was given by the emperor. And the golden swallow also said that this bird is called a cinkle, and the emperor is really talented.
Chen Afu stretched out his hand to take the silver ticket and said with a smile, "Uncle Chu is polite, and thank you for managing Luo." ”
Steward Luo smiled and said, "Our uncle also said that my sister seems to like Little Lady Chen very much. Our lord wants to ask you to be a needlework master for my sister, and when she is in Tangyuan, please guide my sister's needlework. ”
He also talked about her salary and benefits, and the monthly silver was two taels of silver, and four sets of clothes a year, including one meal. If the sister's progress is great, the uncle will be grateful.
Not to mention that Chu Hanyan is sick, even if she is a normal little girl, it is impossible for her to learn needlework at the age of four. This must be to let yourself play with and be a nursery aunt. The name is good, the name is good, and it gives himself full face.
The master is the teacher, whether it is teaching or teaching needlework, since it is called a teacher, it is all respected.
Moreover, the little girl lives in Tangyuan to teach, and the work unit is also close. The most important thing is that the leaves of Yan Agarwood will definitely help the little girl's illness, and she is absolutely sure that she will do this job well and get the gratitude of her boss.
It's just that although Chen Afu feels that "heavy thanks" has a certain temptation, he also likes and sympathizes with the little girl and is willing to help her. But she didn't want to nest in that mansion every day, she was too busy, and she had a lot to do, not only to make a fortune but also to build her own home......
But the Chu family, she didn't want to and didn't dare to offend. He hesitated and said, "Thank you Uncle Chu for taking a fancy to me, and I am also willing to teach Sister Yan'er." It's just that...... Steward Luo knows, my family depends on me, I'm busy, I can't ...... every day"
Steward Luo smiled again, "My uncle knows that the lady of the Chen family is the pillar of the family and has a lot to do. When and when is it convenient for you to go to the Tang Garden, you can make an idea. ”
This is what Chu Lingxuan whispered to Steward Luo just now. She is not a subordinate, she cannot be forced, she must be willing.
Steward Luo also saw that the lady of the Chen family was very wise, no wonder her sister liked to be close to her. If such a person is willing to teach his sister, it is definitely the gospel of his sister. So, he won't take big at all.
When Chen Afu heard it, she was very sincere when she was invited. Ordinary people like her are like ants in front of these powerful people, but others can do this.
She looked out the window, and even though it was autumn, it was full of flowers and birds. Next to the hibiscus, Chu Hanyan sat on the brocade stool, Qiqi and Ash jumped around her and shouted, and Dabao sat next to her, sometimes teasing the parrot, sometimes looking at Xiao Nizi, or looking for a few words.
The little girl's gaze was blankly unfocused, and her pretty little face kept pointing in one direction, as if she was thinking about something, and occasionally she would be attracted by Dabao to look at him or the two parrots, and then turn her eyes away and look in that inexplicable direction.
Thinking of the stupid Afu who had died, Chen Afu's heart hurt inexplicably. said, "Uncle Chu and Luo are polite, if that's the case, I'll be bold enough to say what I think." I heard that Sister Yan got up at the beginning of the morning, and had to take a lunch break after eating at noon. I went to the Tang Garden at two o'clock, and she went home after the lunch break. When she woke up from the lunch break, I went again, and stayed until the time of the unitary time to go home, which added up to more than three hours. During the day, as long as Sister Yan is awake, I am almost always by my side, not only 'teaching' my sister, but also taking care of my own home. It's best, uh, can you take one day off on five days?" and added, "If you don't work enough hours, you can deduct your monthly money." ”
In her previous life, she used to take one day off for five days, and she really didn't like the ancient practice of taking a day off every ten days.
Steward Luo said with a smile, "The lady of the Chen family said that she laughed, for more than three hours a day, she has already taught enough, and she doesn't need to deduct the moon silver." It is reasonable to take one day off on five days. Oh, you bring Dabao every day, the two children can play together, and you don't have to worry. ”
Chen Afu nodded in agreement, and said with a smile, "It's just that my hands are not the best, I can only do my best, and I ask Uncle Chu and Steward Luo to take care of them." ”
Steward Luo said with a smile, "Our uncle has a vision and will not be mistaken." praised their uncle, and praised Chen Afu. He also said, "Little Lady Chen made the doll earlier, so she sent it to the house, and directly told the porter to find me." Well, next time I come, Mrs. Chen will make more of that kind of sweet dates, and my uncle likes it too. He whispered again, "When the house is done, I will accompany Mrs. Chen to Yaxing." Now you have more money and can buy more land. ”
Chen Afu smiled and nodded in gratitude.
Steward Luo sent a carriage from the house to send Chen Afu's mother and son back, and Wei gave them two packs of snacks and two bags of candy, and repeatedly thanked Chen Afu for making glutinous rice dates and swallow dolls for Sister Yan'er, and his own children often visited her home.
Chen Afu secretly sighed, Steward Luo's family are all human spirits.
Before leaving, Chen Afu didn't dare to go over to disturb Chu Hanyan. Wei was also afraid that she would get on the road, so Qiao'er coaxed her into the house with glutinous rice dates.
Before Chen Afu and Dabao walked out of the yard, they heard Sister Yan'er's cry. Crying and crying, "Bird Bird...... Maternal aunt...... Dabao ......"
Dabao couldn't bear it, paused, raised his head and said, "Mother, it turns out that Sister Yan'er cries with tears, and she doesn't cry." Now she must be very sad to cry so loudly. ”
Chen Afu picked him up and said, "Actually, Sister Yan'er lets go of her voice and cries, it's better than crying, this is a kind of emotional venting, and she is also clearly telling others what she thinks in her heart." ”
Chen Dabao didn't understand, just lowered his head and sighed, like a little old man. Qiqi and Ash who were squatting in the basket were not having a good time, and they kept sighing as the little master learned.
