Chapter 108 Two hundred and five dollars a month
When the women heard the news, they hurriedly went to Liu Ergou's house, and the small courtyard of Liu Ergou's house was immediately crowded with villagers, and the small courtyard that was usually unfrequented became lively.
Aunt Zhang came early, and met a few women who were usually close to her outside the courtyard of Liu Ergou's house, so they chatted a few words together.
"Have you heard, two hundred and fifty wen, oh my God, my family can only save a few dozen wen all year round."
"My mother-in-law is not in good health and often takes medicine, not only can't save money, but also owes a lot of debt, which is getting more and more year by year, like a hill pressing on the top of her head and breathless."
"Lihua is really a capable child, it seems that Liu Ergou's family will be developed in the future."
"Everyone, don't be envious here, let's hurry up and ask if there are any more people in Pear Blossom Xilai Building."
Several women chatted and rushed into the Rika family's house.
The Ewha house was built as a low thatched house, and at this time it was crowded with people, and it seemed very crowded.
A dim oil lamp in the house was just borrowed from the Little Seven Family.
Liu Ergou's family is usually reluctant to light oil lamps, and the whole family sleeps as soon as it gets dark, because oil is too expensive.
There were many people in the room, the women were chattering very lively, and Liu Ergou occasionally answered a few words.
Liu Ergou's daughter-in-law sat quietly on the edge of the bed, with a smile on the corner of her mouth, and people who couldn't see with her eyes generally heard very well, and the movement in the room made her very happy.
Lihua happily talked to her mother on the side: "Mother, are you happy, after I go to Xilai Building, I can get two hundred and fifty wen a month." ”
"Since Lang Zhong said that Dad can't do heavy work in the future, let Dad take care of his mother and little mouse at home in the future, and when I work in Xilai Lou for a long time, the salary should rise again, and then I will be able to feed our whole family alone."
Liu Xiaowu's daughter-in-law Chunhua said to Liu Ergou: "Brother Ergou, your pear blossom has a future, this is about to develop, and you can also carry us, my Xiaocui and Pear Blossom are the same age, let Pear Blossom help talk about it, can you also go to Xilai Building to do things." ”
Liu Xiaowu is Liu Ergou's cousin, and occasionally helps Liu Ergou, but Liu Ergou is embarrassed to refuse directly, so he said, "I'll ask Pear Blossom to help ask." ”
Chunhua: "I'll thank Brother Ergou for my Xiaocui first." ”
Aunt Zhang walked up to Pear Blossom and took Pear Blossom's hand affectionately, "Pear Blossom is really getting longer and more symbolic, my little peach is about the same age as you, you can help ask if there is a shortage of people, if you can enter Xilai Building, it will be a great thing." ”
Pear Blossom nodded meekly.
The villagers stayed until late before leaving, and Liu Ergou added lamp oil in the middle quite distressed.
Seeing this, Pear Blossom said, "Dad, I'll buy a lamp when I come back next time, and we'll light it at night in the future." ”
……
On the morning of the second day, Rika carefully freshened up and put on the clothes that Hua Xi'er gave her, which was the most beautiful one, and she was reluctant to put it on after changing the fit.
Pear blossoms are inherently beautiful, and they are even more beautiful after being dressed up like this.
Dressed in beautiful clothes, Pear Blossom stood in front of Xiao Qi for the first time, her skin as white as porcelain glowing.
Xiao Qi was stunned for a moment, "Sister Lihua, you are so beautiful, the most beautiful person I have ever seen." ”
Pear Blossom smiled coquettishly, "The little mouth is so sweet, you have only seen a few people at a young age, and you will see more beautiful people and more beautiful scenery when you go farther away in the future, don't forget your Sister Pear Blossom when the time comes." ”
"How can it, Sister Lihua, I have only been to Guxian County since I grew so big, even if I go farther away, I will not forget Sister Lihua." The farther place is not in Xiao Qi's heart, there is no concept.
Pear Blossom: "There are no absolutes in the world, you see, I never thought that I could work in Xilai Building, I never thought that I could get two hundred and fifty yuan a month. ”
Xiao Qi hugged his fists, "Sister Lihua, congratulations." ”
Pear Blossom: "Thank you, I will have a regular income every month in the future, which is indeed a happy event." ”
Xiao Qi lifted the curtain of the carriage, "Sister Lihua, get in the car quickly, today is your first day of work, don't be late, I got up early in the morning today and personally drove the carriage to send you to Xilai Building." ”
When she arrived at the door of Xilai Building, Pear Blossom got out of the car and held Xiao Qi's hand, "What should I do?" Xiao Qi, I'm so nervous. ”
Xiao Qi pushed Pear Blossom, "Sister Pear Blossom, come in, don't be timid, you can do it." ”
As soon as Pear Blossom stepped into the Xilai Building, it attracted everyone's attention, and such a beautiful girl didn't want to take a few more looks.
The shopkeeper arranged for Pear Blossom to follow Xie Sanniang to do things, Xie Sanniang is a middle-aged woman in her forties, working as a dim sum master in Xilai Building, her skills are very good, and she is very important.
Xie Sanniang only had one feeling when she saw Pear Blossom for the first time - this girl was too beautiful, "Your name is Pear Blossom, don't dress too beautifully when you come here to work, just be clean." ”
Rika replied respectfully, "Yes, I see, thank you." ”
Rika actually felt a little aggrieved in her heart, she put on her best clothes today because she suddenly had a job with a monthly salary of 250 yuan, and she wanted to dress up more grandly on the first day of work upstairs in Xilai, this important day.
Xie Sanniang saw that the little girl seemed a little unhappy when she heard her words, so she said: "I'll mention it casually, you don't have to be too restrained, everyone calls me Xie Sanniang, you can call me that way." ”
Pear Blossom: "Yes, Xie Sanniang." ”
After a few days of getting along, Xie Sanniang had a very good impression of Pear Blossom, and felt that Pear Blossom was very capable, and diligent, and she was a very good girl.
A few days later, Xiao Qi drove a carriage to send Niu and Ah Fu to the town to buy things, but was stopped by stinky duck eggs as soon as he went out.
The rotten duck egg stepped forward and snatched the whip, "Little Seventh Girl, you go to the carriage and sit down to rest, I'll just come to catch the car, I like to catch the car the most." ”
The rotten duck egg was so enthusiastic that Xiao Qi had to climb into the carriage and sit down.
Niu Shi looked out the car window with an appreciative face, "Your second uncle's cousin Xiaoxing is looking at each other, I look at the rotten duck eggs, this child is good." ”
Xiao Qi: "Mother, don't worry about this, the second aunt and the peach blossom lady are not good people, if these two become in-laws, it is estimated that chickens and dogs will jump every day, and he already has a favorite person for rotten duck eggs." ”
"Okay." Niu looked regretful.
After sending Niu and Ah Fu to his aunt Liu Yunniang's shop, Xiao Qi went to Xilai Lou because he was worried about Pear Blossom.
Rika had a smile on her face when she came out of the Xilai Building, and it looked like she was doing a good job here
"How? Sister Ewhata, are you still used to it in Xilai Building? ”
Lihua: "The food here is very good, the accommodation is good, and the master is very good to me." ”
Xiao Qi saw that Pear Blossom was very happy in Xilai Building, so he put his heart down.
Xiao Qimu sent Pear Blossom into Xilai Building, and the stinky duck egg said on the side: "Little Seventh Girl, why don't you open a restaurant in the future, and let Pear Blossom do things in your own restaurant when the time comes, you don't have to worry about her anymore." ”
Xiao Qi thought for a while, "I'll discuss it with Aunt Xi, we planned to open a shop a few days ago, but we didn't think of what to sell yet." ”
Stinky duck eggs: "My mother says every day that I am not promising, little seventh girl, when you open a shop, find me to be a partner, and then Cuihua can look at me highly." ”
"Okay, you're fine."
