The latest chapter of "The Peasant Landlord's Wife"...
Aunt Chun's man said, "Ah Jiu is right, what do you want to do so much?" Making mooncakes well is the right thing to do. ”
Orchid and Aunt Yinhua blushed when they heard this, no one defended themselves, and honestly did the work in their hands.
Hui Niang in the house naturally heard this, smiled, asked Miao Miao to guard the door for her, and went to remove the cabinet herself, and took out the jar where the money was placed under the cabinet.
After taking dozens of coins from inside, Hui Niang put the jar down and hid it, took out the basket left by Fan Lin, and counted the dozens of copper coins she had just taken out, and put them into a small backpack.
The kitchen was talking very loudly, so naturally I didn't pay attention to what Hui Niang was doing in the house, and when Hui Niang was busy with all this, the orchids had already made almost the moon cakes.
When Hui Niang came out of the house, she saw that Aunt Chun's man and Luo Jiu were serving freshly baked mooncakes with wet towels, and Orchid and Yinhua were also helping on the side, and no one continued to make mooncakes.
Orchid saw Hui Niang and asked, "Hui Niang, do you see that these mooncakes we have made are enough?" Because Hui Niang didn't say how much, they also made fifty or sixty of them.
Hui Niang glanced at the mooncakes placed on a board in the kitchen, and nodded, "It's okay, don't do it, everyone don't do it, stop and rest for a while, and I'll give you the salary later." ”
As soon as Aunt Yinhua heard that Hui Niang was going to pay her salary, she immediately went to wash her hands with a smile, Orchid and Luo Shuang tied up the unused flour one by one, and cleaned up the table, and Aunt Chun helped her man take out the moon cakes from the oven one by one.
Hui Niang took the small baskets made by Fan Lin, filled each basket with seven or eight moon cakes, and went into the house to wait for them.
After a while, everyone was busy and went into the house, where Hui Niang was already sitting and waiting for them, and there were a few baskets on the table. There are also dozens of hanging money.
Aunt Yinhua and Aunt Chun glanced at each other, and knew that Hui Niang was going to pay them, and they were still a little excited in their hearts.
Miao Miao sat aside and counted the copper plates in her hand, and when she saw that the orchids were coming, she hurriedly greeted them.
"Aunt Chun, Aunt Yinhua, sit down, don't stand, you have all worked hard these days, the moon cakes in these baskets, you will all take them back and eat them later." After Hui Niang finished speaking, she prepared several baskets of moon cakes. Hand a few to Aunt Chun.
The style of the baskets is not as beautiful as the decoration in the town, and it is not very ugly. Aunt Chun and her man are one, and Luo Jiu and Luo Shuang are two. The rest is Aunt Honeysuckle and Orchid.
Orchid hesitated: "Hui Niang, you are too polite, the salary you give us is not high, so you can still ask for your moon cakes." ”
Orchid helped Hui Niang sell this moon cake in the town, and she knows the price of this moon cake. Don't look at these baskets, they can be sold for a few taels of silver together, how dare she accept them.
Luo Jiu also shook his head and refused, Aunt Chun and her man also said no, although Yinhua was excited, she didn't say anything when she looked at Aunt Chun. She was embarrassed to speak alone, and she was worried about Xiao Jiujiu in her heart.
Aunt Chun looked at Aunt Yinhua's appearance and kicked her below. Aunt Yinhua, who was in pain, gasped in her heart.
Miao Miao muttered in her heart, curious why everyone didn't want this moon cake.
Hui Niang glanced at a few of them, "Sister Orchid, don't be in a hurry to refuse, after all, you have helped me for several days." is tired and tired, and he has no time to take care of his own family's affairs. If you don't give this mooncake, I won't give you this salary. Hui Niang threatened.
What else did Orchid want to say, seeing that Hui Niang was not joking, she opened it, and when it came to her mouth, she swallowed it.
Aunt Chun's man understood what Hui Niang meant, this was for them to have to accept it, and after thinking about it, he said to Hui Niang: "That's okay, Hui Niang, you and Aunt Chun will accept your moon cakes." ”
"Then I'll take it too, Hui Niang, don't you don't give me wages because of this." Aunt Yinhua joked.
"Don't worry, no, Sister Orchid, Ah Jiu, don't refuse, just take this moon cake and go back, ah!" Hui Niang didn't care if they wanted it or not, and pushed the basket in her hand over.
Then she began to pay them, Aunt Yinhua rubbed her hands nervously, staring at the copper coin in Hui Niang's hand, Hui Niang felt funny, and gave her Yinhua's salary first.
Carefully calculated, Aunt Yinhua worked at Hui Niang's house for four days, one day was only one night, and the next day was the same, if these two were counted for one day, they added up to four days, a day of 100 wen, that is, 400 wen, but Hui Niang gave Aunt Yinhua 500 wen.
Aunt Yinhua looked at it and said, "Hui Niang, you have given too much wages." ”
Hui Niang's money is all hung and strung together, and when Yinhua looks at it, she knows a lot.
Orchid and Aunt Chun, who had just gotten the money, looked up at Hui Niang, and Hui Niang smiled: "Not much, I said it, this salary is 100 wen a day, although on August 10 and August 11, you all did a night's work, whether you do it or not, it is 100 wen a day." ”
Aunt Yinhua licked her lips and said, "This ...... This can't work, how many days of work I have done, I know in my own heart, there is a lot of you there. ”
Although she is greedy for good things, it is not her own, and she will not ask for more.
Over there, Orchid and Aunt Chun also said that they would give more, they were busy working together, so the money was the same, and now that there was an extra hundred Wen, it was natural to ask clearly.
Hui Niang didn't say anything more to the three of them, but said: "Auntie, it should be regarded as a reward I gave to a few of you, you can accept it with peace of mind, you helped me, I naturally have to keep it in mind, otherwise I can make so many moon cakes by myself and make money?" ”
The orchids stopped talking, and they were a little moved in their hearts, and said to Hui Niang: "Then we will accept it, and if you want us to help you in the future, just say it directly." ”
"Of course, I didn't give you so much salary, but I hope you don't tell others about making mooncakes at home, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble." Hui Niang took advantage of the victory to pursue.
Aunt Yinhua answered: "That's natural, if anyone says it, I will be the first to spare him." ”
Everyone laughed when they heard this, Luo Jiu and Luo Shuang also said that they would not talk too much in the village, and as for Aunt Chun's man, they also promised not to say it.
"Then I'll rest assured, I might as well tell everyone, if my mother-in-law and my sisters-in-law know, there will definitely be endless trouble, and if there are any novel ways to make money in the future, I guess I won't be able to ask everyone for help." Hui Niang is telling the truth, maybe there are people in the village who come to fight the autumn breeze.
Speaking of this, Aunt Chun and Aunt Yinhua are a little sympathetic to Hui Niang's experience, no wonder they have been making moon cakes for several days, except for Hui Niang's sister-in-law, Ma Shi came, and I didn't see other people come to help.
Aunt Chun also understood Hui Niang's situation in the Fan family, and said with relief: "Hui Niang, you can put a hundred hearts, we are not that kind of people." ”
Hui Niang smiled: "Cough, what am I talking about this, by the way, I haven't paid this salary yet, Ah Jiu, these three hundred Wen are yours, your sister's, uncle.... This is your salary, three hundred wen. ”
Luo Jiu, Luo Shuang and Aunt Chun's men came to help Hui Niang later, although the time to work was not very long, but counting it, there were also three days.
"Auntie, I can't ask for this, you have paid me every month, and it is natural to help you, if you ask for your salary, what is it?" Luo Jiu insisted.
Originally, his aunt had already given him a salary to do things, but if he took it again, he really felt a little reluctant in his heart, and what he had done in the past few days was worth a month for him, and he dared to collect it indiscriminately.
Luo Jiu didn't speak, and Luo Shuang didn't dare to accept Hui Niang's money at will, but Aunt Chun's man unceremoniously accepted the money, and gave it directly to Aunt Chun and asked her to keep it.
This time it wasn't Hui Niang who said it, the orchids began to persuade Luo Jiu, after all, they all knew Hui Niang's personality, if Luo Jiu didn't accept it, maybe Hui Niang would not be happy.
Hui Niang didn't interject, indeed, give a few more hundred dollars to the orchid, but I don't want them to say that they have made money, but they are ungrateful or something, although it has nothing to do with this, Hui Niang still thinks that it is better to give them more, so it is regarded as a reward.
"Ah Jiu, this special time, special treatment, you are welcome, accept it, and then tear two pieces of cloth for your younger brothers and sisters to go to the town to make a new dress to wear, and your mother is also waiting to ask for money? You, don't be tough, next time you want to have this kind of good thing, there will be no more. "Hui Niang won't talk too much about him.
Luo Shuang thought about it, felt that what Hui Niang said made sense, and looked at Luo Jiu expectantly.
Luo Jiu weighed it a few times in his heart, and saw Luo Shuang looking at her again, with a bright little face with a thick expectation, Luo Jiu felt a little sad, yes, what the aunt said is right, her own family is poor, and now is not the time to say this, Luo Shuang, Niu Wa and his mother should also buy a new dress.
"Okay then, I'll take it, auntie." Luo Jiu slowly put away the six hanging coins on the table.
pinched tightly, reluctant to let go, the corners of Luo Shuang's mouth also raised.
Hui Niang nodded, "That's good." ”
Aunt Yinhua said: "That's good, we are all people who do things for Hui Niang, if you don't want this salary alone, a few of us feel sorry for it." ”
Luo Jiu'er turned red, lowered his head, and didn't say a word.
Aunt Chun glared at Aunt Yinhua, "Jing said blindly." You see that you blushed when you said that everyone Ah Jiu said. ”
Several people took their salaries, talked to Hui Niang for a while, and left one after another, and Miao Miao also followed Orchid to her house and went to Xia Yue to play.
Luo Jiuhui Niang let him stay, and she happened to have something to talk to him.
"Auntie, what is the matter with you looking for me, I am ......" Luo Jiu glanced at Luo Shuang, who was smiling and leaving with a few orchids.
"You don't remember? Didn't you tell me the other day that you would help me make white porridge and sell it in the town? ”
Luo Jiu was dumbfounded for a moment, then reacted and said, "Auntie, according to what you say, do you agree?" ”
