On the way back, Li Qingyou thought all the way, there is a sentence Xiaoshan Niang is not wrong, she makes tofu in the middle of the night alone, and then runs around during the day, she is really too busy, it is better to only take care of one end than to do it at both ends.

Although the second aunt Sun in the West Courtyard is broken and gossips, her hands and feet are diligent, and her people are clean and neat, and Aunt Xie in the East Courtyard is a little buried, and Li Qingyou is not very optimistic.

Xiao Shanniang paused, "Looking for someone to help?" ”

It's better to find someone else than to find her, tired is tired, but it's not that she can't do it. The son is getting older year by year, and he is now at the age when he should say goodbye, and it is the time to use the money.

"Qingyou, you wait, I'll tell you something......" Xiaoshan Niang quickly caught up with Li Qingyou and said her own thoughts.

Li Qingyou hesitated and said, "That's too hard, isn't it?" ”

"No hard work, no hard work." Xiao Shanniang waved her hand again and again, "This has to be done all day long to be offended, and besides, I just stay here, and I won't delay anything." ”

It would be better if Xiaoshan Niang was willing, it just so happened that Li Qingyou had taught her to make tofu before, and she was considered a semi-skilled worker, which was much better than teaching novices.

"That's okay, then add 300 yuan to my aunt every month, do you think it's the salary for making tofu?" Li Qingyou said: "But if you can't do it, you must say it, and then think of other ways." ”

"Hey, it's not so delicate, it's dry." Xiaoshan Niang was happy to see her eyebrows, and she was busy feeding the chickens again.

It will already be half the day, Li Qingyou is a little sleepy, turned around and went into the house to sleep for a while, and just walked to the door and met Liu Xiaosan who came out of it.

"Miss Li is back?" Liu Xiaosan's face was still bruised, and he pulled out an awkward smile, grinning a little miserable.

Li Qingyou hummed, glanced at his face, estimated that it would take two days to get better, and thought about it: "Why don't you go back early today, and come back early tomorrow morning." ”

She wasn't going to go out today anyway.

Liu Xiaosan's face froze slightly, he didn't want to go home, he didn't dare to go back. Since his mother learned that he had such a good job, she asked him to arrange work for several brothers in the family.

God is pitiful, how can he have that ability?

Although he estimated that he would have to hire someone after the ranch was built, he was too embarrassed to mention it, and always felt as if he was insatiable.

The old lady is pressing tightly, and he has a headache when he gets home these days.

"I'll leave in the evening, in case something happens later." Liu Xiaosan touched his nose in a daze, and in case Li Qingyou asked too much, he hurriedly changed the topic and asked her why her brother didn't come back.

Li Qingyou looked back, and sure enough, he didn't see his brother, "I probably went to play again." ”

Li Qingyou also felt helpless about his brother being so naughty, but fortunately, he couldn't jump for a few days, and after the school took the autumn harvest vacation, he should go to study honestly.

When he thought of the school, Li Qingyou had a bit of a headache, there was no bus or commuter car in this era, so he could only use a donkey cart to pick him up every day.

He yawned and walked to the house, walked a few steps and stopped, frowning slightly, as if he had forgotten something?

After thinking about it for a long time, Li Qingyou shook his head, forget it, let's talk about it when I wake up.

Entering the house, taking off her coat, getting on the kang, closing her eyes, all in one go, and then the next moment she sat up suddenly, grabbed the coat on the side and put it on, she finally remembered that she forgot something.

As a result, Li Qingyou just came out of the house, and met the little mountain girl feeding the chickens back, "Yo, didn't you say to sleep for a while, this is going out again?" ”

"I suddenly remembered something, and I'll be back in a while." Li Qingyou said and continued to walk out.

Liu Xiaosan, who heard the movement, hurriedly ran over from the donkey shed and followed Li Qingyou out, wanting to ask her where she was going, seeing that she was frowning and serious, and swallowed back the words that came to her mouth.

Anyway, he's just in charge of following.

However, after half an hour, Liu Xiaosan looked at the yamen in front of him, his legs and stomach were a little tendoned, and then looked at Li Qingyou on the side, "Up, go to the yamen?" ”

The words of the people who are afraid of seeing officials are fully reflected in Liu Xiaosan, even if he didn't commit anything, even when he was obviously justified, he didn't dare to go to the yamen.

Liu Xiaosan was not the only one who was startled, but the younger brother not far away was also startled, and hurriedly hid back, hid in the alley, and peeked at Li Qingyou's direction against the wall.

"Absent?" Li Qingyou looked at the servant, his eyebrows subconsciously wrinkled slightly, "Then this little brother knows where Lord Xu has gone and when he will return?" ”

Today's official was very faceless, and Li Qingyou secretly stuffed a small piece of broken silver into the other party's hand.

The official checked it, and then said: "My lord has occasionally felt cold in the past few days, so I closed the door and thanked the guests, so go back." ”

Occasional chills?

It was fine when I saw it in the morning.

Li Qingyou wanted to say something more, but was stared at by the official and pulled out the knife.

"Niang Xipi, I really have no conscience, I don't admit it when I receive the money, I turn my face when I put on my pants, and I stink...... shameless" Li Qing was not light, and muttered and scolded while walking back.

She rarely loses her temper so much, but today she is really aggrieved, but she gave the silver, and the concierge of the Wei family is not so domineering, if Liu Xiaosan hadn't stopped her just now, she wouldn't have ......

Well, she can't do anything if no one stops her, just get angry.

Liu Xiaosan peeked at Li Qingyou on the side, and opened his mouth several times to say that a girl's family, so don't say anything about putting on his pants or anything, but he didn't dare to say it after opening his mouth a few times.

After walking a few steps, I met a person in front of me, "Miss Li?" ”

The man looked up and down a few times, and then smiled, "Why is this appearance, if it weren't for the familiar sound, I wouldn't dare to recognize it." ”

Li Qingyou was stunned for a moment, and then he saw clearly that the person opposite was called Zhu Bashan, and he was another good friend of Zhang Tieniu besides Shen Si.

"It turned out to be Brother Zhu." Li Qingyou smiled and gave a hand-holding salute, "See you." ”

"Miss Li is here ......" Zhu Bashan glanced in the direction of the yamen, and subconsciously wanted to say that she came to find Zhang Tieniu, but when she thought of what happened a few days ago, she didn't say anything else.

"Oh, I'm here for Lord Xu." Li Qingyou hurriedly said: "I saw him in the morning, but the errand officer at the door just now said that the adult was sick?" ”

As he spoke, he glanced in the direction of the yamen.

Jubashan followed her gaze and smiled, "Miss Li, don't mind, that kid was kicked out by his mother-in-law last night, and he has nowhere to spread his belly." ”

Then he lowered his voice and said: "The adults are not sick, but they will leave the county seat after noon, no one knows where they are going, you have something to do, or come back in three or five days." ”

Out of the house?

This was something Li Qingyou didn't expect, and he knew that he should have come to the yamen directly after leaving the cross street.

Ah Di looked at Li Qingyou from a distance, and couldn't hear what she and the official said, but after seeing Li Qingyou leave, he breathed a sigh of relief, and then thought who she was looking for here?
