After leaving the weeping flower door, Steward Cai hurriedly wiped the sweat on his forehead with his cuffs.

"What's wrong?"

Tong Shuangxi looked at the reward silver in his hand, and thought to himself, he should have said something wrong.

Steward Cai looked around, and saw that no one was paying attention to his side, so he replied in a low voice: "Let you see the smile, I was so nervous when I saw this Liu Gonggong, I didn't have this problem before, I think it's because I haven't seen a noble person for a long time when I came here." ”

Seeing Steward Cai say this, Tong Shuangxi pointed to the reward silver in Steward Cai's hand and said: "Steward Cai does his best to do things, no matter what kind of noble person he is, he will be satisfied." ”

Steward Cai smiled and said, "Just your sweet mouth." ”

Cai has a lot of things to do, Tong Shuangxi and Wei Bowen also went down the mountain, and when they were about to go down the mountain, Cai gave Tong Shuangxi a small silver horn.

"This is considered your salary, and every day you come in the future, you will be paid 500 yuan."

Tong Shuangxi saw that this silver horn weighed eight points, and he also counted it in his heart, and after telling Steward Cai about the time to come tomorrow, he took Wei Bowen down the mountain.

Although this milk drink is rare, it is also something that ordinary people can't afford to drink, so even if Tong Shuangxi makes a living with this craft, I'm afraid he won't be able to make much money, besides, with Tong Shuangxi's current conditions, even the best cattle and sheep can't afford it.

Steward Cai's daily salary of 500 yuan for Tong Shuangxi is already sky-high, and Tong Shuangxi is not dissatisfied.

"It's your wages."

On the way down the mountain, Tong Shuangxi took out twenty yuan from his body and handed it to Wei Bowen and said.

Wei Bowen looked at Tong Shuangxi at a loss.

"I didn't give much, I deducted your mother and son to eat and drink every day, and I will give you another twenty yuan each time." Tong Shuangxi shoved the silver money into Wei Bowen's hand and continued to walk forward.

Wei Bowen looked at Tong Shuangxi's back for a long time before he clumsily collected the money.

Back home, Tong Shuangxi called Mrs. Wang and Tong Shuangshuang to the east house.

"So much money, all of them were rewarded by Gonggong Liu?"

Mrs. Wang looked at the ingots on the bed, which were full of ten taels of silver, and always felt like a dream.

"That's not it, Gonggong Liu praised me for how delicious my milk drink was, specially asked me to ask questions, and then rewarded me with ten taels of silver!" Tong Shuangxi said deliberately proudly.

"Sister...... That's amazing! Tong Shuangshuang admired his sister even more.

It's only been a few days since I went up the mountain, and my sister came back with ten taels of silver, which is a lot of silver that ordinary people can't earn back in a year!

After the mother-in-law and grandson were happy, they put away the silver.

On the twentieth day of the lunar month, Tong Shuangxi still took Wei Bowen up the mountain, and after the milk drink was finished, Steward Cai spoke to her alone.

"Tomorrow, Father-in-law Liu is going to leave to visit friends in the provincial capital, and all of us have to wait with us, leaving only some small servants at home, and then you don't come over to make milk drinks, and when Father-in-law Liu comes back, I will look for you again."

Steward Cai also just got the news after breakfast yesterday.

Hearing Steward Cai's words, Tong Shuangxi nodded yes, and after asking a few more questions, he took Wei Bowen down the mountain.

The errand on the mountain stopped, and Tong Shuangxi was idle for a while, so he helped Mrs. Wang prepare for the New Year.

First of all, we will draw up the New Year's gifts to be given for the New Year, and then draw up the New Year's goods needed for the New Year, and then go to the town to purchase them together.

Since the death of Mrs. Wang's husband and son, Mrs. Wang has stopped moving around with her relatives and friends in the village, except for the Qin family who will send her some food and drink during the New Year every year, Mrs. Wang has not given any New Year's gifts for many years.

"Your second master and second grandmother Qin's house, you must send it!"

Mrs. Wang was dead before, not stupid, she has always remembered the friendship of the Qin family for her, so this year she plans to use her own money to give the Qin family a thick New Year's gift.

The money earned by the mother-in-law and grandson before, Tong Shuangxi divided it into their respective hands according to the share agreed by the three, and then the three of them took out a share of the expenses in the house, and the remaining silver money was naturally the mother-in-law and grandson's own silver.

At the beginning, Mrs. Wang didn't agree to take the silver, saying that she was an old aunt who didn't need any silver at all, and asked Tong Shuangxi to collect it and keep it for the livelihood of their sister and brother in the future.

But after Tong Shuangxi's repeated persuasion, Mrs. Wang put away her money, and thought about saving it for Tong Shuangxi and Tong Shuangshuang's sister and brother to marry.

There is no need for Mrs. Wang to say, Tong Shuangxi on the Qin family's side has to prepare a thick New Year's gift, and this year, thanks to Qin Lao Neng and Qin Wu's family, Tong Shuangxi can make money so smoothly.

"Steward Wen, steward Zhao, steward Cai, also have to give a copy, although the gift is not expensive, but it also represents a heart of our family."

Tong Shuangxi also proposed.

"That's, that's, and that Liu Xiaoshu's father-in-law, if it weren't for him, Xiaoshuang's child would really be sold by the Tong family."

mentioned the few people in charge of Wen, and Mrs. Wang remembered that Liu Xiaoshu's father-in-law came again.

Since she knew that the person who helped Tong Shuangshuang was Liu Xiaoshu's little father-in-law, Mrs. Wang has always kept this great favor in mind.

Tong Shuangxi stuck out his tongue embarrassedly, how could he forget this little father-in-law!

The three of them discussed it again, and gave Li Zheng and the village chief's family a New Year's gift.

After preparing the things to be bought, Mrs. Wang went to Qin's house and talked to Qin Lao Neng about going to the town tomorrow in his ox cart to buy them.

On the second day, early in the morning, Mrs. Wang, Tong Shuangxi, and Tong Shuangshuang's mother-in-law and grandson packed up, took the money and prepared to go to Qin's house.

"I ...... I'm going to town......"

It's just that before he finished his words, Mrs. Wang interrupted him and said, "Then let's go together." ”

Although Wei Bowen is useless, but he is not that lazy person, as long as there is work at home on weekdays, he will rush to do it, although the work is not beautiful, but it also makes Mrs. Wang slowly change some views on him.

If the person who spoke today was the Wei Fang clan, Mrs. Wang would not be able to agree.

When the four of them arrived at Qin's house, the Qin family had also had breakfast, Qin Wu had just cleaned up the kitchen, and Qin Lao Neng was setting up an ox cart in the yard.

"Xiaoxi, Xiaoshuang is here!"

Qin Lao Neng saw Tong Shuangxi and Tong Shuangshuang and greeted him with a smile.

Tong Shuangxi and Tong Shuangshuang also smiled and shouted, "Second Grandpa Qin." ”

Tong Shuangxi hasn't seen Qin Lao Neng for a long time, every time he comes to Qin's house, this Qin Lao Neng is either out of the house, or he is called to help by Qin Ergouzi's house, but at first glance, he sees that he suddenly looks a lot older, and the whole person is not as cheerful as before, but adds a lot of fatigue.
