Hearing Su Hao's question, Lu Xiu'er had a smug look on her face, and she began to tell Su Hao about her earning money.

It turned out that after Su Hao left, Yang Gendi came from the countryside to the city. With her mother in charge of the housework, Lu Xiuer is completely idle, running around the city every day, seeing everything is fresh, and she feels that her life is very happy.

After a few days, Yang Gendi began to talk to her about the family's income and expenditure, saying that now the fields in the countryside are rented to others for planting, and the income has dropped sharply, and Su Hao works as an errand in the county government, and he doesn't know how much money he can earn. The family lives in a big thick and astringent, and the firewood, rice, oil, and salt in the city are all expensive, and if this continues, the little silver that the county has rewarded before may not last long.

Hearing her mother say this, Lu Xiuer also became nervous, and she went to Wu Da's wife Feng Shi to consult her about how to live in the city. Feng told her that the income of the county government servants was only enough to make ends meet, and if she had to raise children, as well as study and take exams, she would be very tight on this income.

Besides, Su Hao's current house is still rented, and if you want to settle down in the county, buying a house is an essential thing. However, how expensive are the housing prices now, Fengcheng is a third-tier city, and the housing prices are about to catch up with Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou......

Under Feng's instigation, Lu Xiuer finally found a way to make money for herself after detailed market research, that is, to sell tea eggs on the street.

Every day, she asked Yang Gendi to buy 100 eggs from the street, process them into tea eggs with rural technology, and then pick them up on the street to sell. Although Lu Xiuer has not learned the four arithmetic, she can calculate it by instinct, such a business can make money, and at the end of the day, there should be no problem in earning seventy or eighty yuan.

Yang Gendi is old and thin-skinned, so she doesn't dare to sell on the street. Lu Xiuer has been crazy since she was a child, although she was a little timid at first, but after a day or two, she calmed down, whether it was shouting on the street or bargaining with guests, she could deal with it easily. She is young and beautiful, lively and lovely, and many people are willing to buy her tea eggs, and the result is very good, comparing several peers who have been selling tea eggs for a long time on the street.

"Uh...... I really can't see that you still have the talent for business. Su Hao smiled dumbly.

"Brother, if I go to the street to sell tea eggs, will I lose your face?" Lu Xiu'er asked cautiously, "Sometimes when I encounter an errand to drive people, I don't dare to say that my brother is also from the county government." ”

Su Hao said: "It doesn't matter if you don't have a face, right?" It's a very honorable thing to get rich through hard work. The Ming Dynasty also did not seem to stipulate that the family members of civil servants could not do business, so there were no taboos. In the future, if there is an errand officer who dares to get along with you, you will say that your brother is Su Hao, and it will definitely work. ”

"Really?" Lu Xiu'er laughed, hearing that Su Hao seemed to be quite supportive of her selling tea eggs, she put her heart down, and she talked more: "Brother, you don't know, the money of people in the city is easy to earn, 2 yuan for an egg, as well as firewood, salt, soy sauce, tea and something, at most 1 yuan." It adds up to less than 3 yuan, but when I take it out and sell it for 5 yuan, someone buys it, but I usually sell it for 4 yuan......"

Su Hao listened to his sister talk about his business experience, and fell asleep unconsciously. Lu Xiuer is willing to sell tea eggs, he has no objection, this is actually a kind of fun for the little girl, rather than making her unhappy at home every day, it is better to let her do something she loves to do. As for how much money he can make, Su Hao doesn't care, when he was in the countryside, he had already thought about it, and after returning to the city, he would make a big move to do some business. However, the most important thing for him right now is to sleep.

Su Hao slept until dinner and woke up, and his mother Yang Gendi really made a big table of dishes, but only Su Hao, Deng Kui, and Hao Tong were the only ones who ate on the table.

"Mom, will you come to the table to eat too?" Su Hao persuaded that he saw his mother leave a few small dishes in the kitchen, and guessed that she must be hiding in the kitchen to eat.

"No need, I'll just eat in the kitchen, you young people drink and chat together, don't worry about me, an old woman." Yang Gendi said.

"Uh...... What about Xiu'er? Su Hao asked again.

Yang Gendi said: "Xiu'er has a friend, stay in her room, let me send the food to their room." ”

"What?" Su Hao was very curious, "This crazy girl, just a few days after coming to the county, she has already made fox friends and dog friends?" It can't be Wu's sister-in-law, right? ”

Yang Gendi said: "It's not Sister-in-law Wu, it's two young girls." I've been to the house several times, and I asked Xiu'er who they were, and she said they weren't allowed to say. However, these two people look like girls from good families. ”

"No, I'll have to go up and have a look." Su Hao said, and went upstairs.

Coming to the door of Lu Xiu'er's room, Su Hao coughed and shouted, "Xiu'er, it's time to eat, do you want to bring your friends to eat together." ”

The door opened, Lu Xiu'er came out, she grinned, and said to Su Hao: "Brother, we are all girls, and it is not appropriate to sit and eat with you." By the way, brother, do you know who is in my room? ”

Lu Xiu'er's last sentence was said in a low voice, obviously not wanting the people in the room to hear it.

Su Hao asked, "What person?" It's all at home, what are you doing hiding your head and tail? ”

Without waiting for Lu Xiu'er to say anything, she saw a flash of her dress, and a girl with a happy face walked out of the room, she bowed slightly to Su Hao, and said, "Su Gongzi is back?" The little woman was polite. ”

Su Hao looked at it and couldn't help laughing, but he only laughed twice, then quickly restrained himself and returned the salute: "It turned out to be Miss Han, the student was rude." ”

"You ...... Know? Lu Xiu'er looked at her brother, then at Han Qian, and asked strangely.

It turned out that neither Su Hao nor Han Qian told Lu Xiu'er about their meeting, and as for the incident where Han Qian and Su Hao went down the well together, Han Qian would not be publicized.

After returning to the city from Caijia Village, Han Qian couldn't help but feel red and heartbeat every time she thought of the scene of sitting in the same hanging basket with Su Hao and being alone in the deep well. After several hesitations, she finally took the red lotus and ran to Su Hao's house to chat with Lu Xiu'er, just hoping to hear some anecdotes about Su Hao's past and appease her budding spring heart. Every time she comes, she inevitably meets Yang Gendi, she is embarrassed to explain her identity, and she does not let Lu Xiuer reveal her identity, so Yang Gendi only knows that Han Qian is Lu Xiuer's friend, but she doesn't know that she is actually the daughter of the county magistrate.

Today, Han Qian heard that the team digging the well had returned, so she couldn't sit still anymore, and said to her parents to go out to play with her female partner, so she came to Su Hao's house with Honglian. When she saw Lu Xiu'er, she was embarrassed to say that she came to visit Su Hao, but said that she missed Lu Xiu'er and wanted to have a family relationship with her.

Su Hao slept so darkly that Han Qian had no choice but to talk saliva with Lu Xiu'er over and over again, until it was time to eat, Su Hao had not yet appeared, so Han Qian was cheeky and stayed, saying that she wanted to taste Lu Xiu'er's food.

Fortunately, Su Hao came up to take a look after hearing the news, otherwise Han Qian wouldn't know what excuse to go to see Su Hao.

"When I was in the county government, I met Miss Han twice, so I met, hehe, hehe." Su Hao was very clever in covering up, he was afraid that Han Qian would be too thin-skinned and would not be able to wipe off his face.

Han Qian also said: "Xiu'er, I met Su Gongzi in the county office, my father admires Su Gongzi very much, I didn't expect Su Gongzi to be so approachable at home." ”

Load, you just load! Su Hao secretly laughed at Han Qian's hypocrisy in his heart. Since Lu Xiu'er's guests were Han Qian's master and servant, he naturally didn't want to invite them down to eat at the same table with Deng Kui and the others. After everyone said a few polite words, Su Hao was about to say goodbye and go downstairs, but Han Qian called out to him:

"By the way, Master Su, a month ago, the Cheng sisters and brothers came to my father at the county office, saying that they were entrusted by you and asked my father to arrange a place for them to make a living. Because my father was busy with official business, the little girl made some arrangements for the Cheng sisters and brothers for him, and now I will inform my son. ”

"Mm-hmm, that's the case." Su Hao replied stubbornly, "The land of the Cheng sisters and brothers was occupied because of the well, and there is no livelihood, so I dared to ask the county lord to help arrange it, but I didn't expect that this matter would make Miss Han bother." I don't know where the Cheng sisters and brothers are now, and their lives are passable? ”

"That lady of the Cheng family, I found her a cook in the county government, with a salary of one or two or five dollars of silver a month, and her residence is also in the county office, with those mothers-in-law. As for the young man of the Cheng family, I asked Master Fang to introduce him to Longguang Academy to go to school, but Sect Wu said that he could only take in this young man temporarily, and if this young man wanted to stay for a long time, you had to go and tell him in person. Han Qian said.

"This undisciplined Wu Zhicheng!" Su Hao scolded with a smile. With Han Qian and Fang Mengjin as introducers, Wu Zhicheng has no reason not to accept Cheng Dong, the academy is a place with government subsidies, and no province can save Cheng Dong's rations. When Wu Zhicheng said this, he clearly wanted to tell Su Hao that this was a favor he sold to Su Hao, and his purpose was naturally to hope that Su Hao would be able to pour out the Western scientific and technological knowledge he had mastered.

"After I go to the county office tomorrow to deliver the mission to Lord Han, I will go to the academy to find this old shameless man. The matter of the Cheng family's sisters and brothers, thank you Miss Han for your help. ”

"Su Gongzi dug wells for the people, and worked hard. It is really an honor for the little woman to be able to do something for Su Gongzi. Han Qian said softly.
