Chapter 225: Queue up to get paid
After Saburo finished speaking, he turned his gaze to Shiro, and the implication was obvious, that is, to tell Shiro again, and the next words would be up to him.
Shiro, who is usually good at talking, is nervous at the moment with sweaty palms, and said in a somewhat stumbling tone: "There are also aunts and aunts who help cook rice, you are also a salary of five cents per person, after all, this cooking, it looks like you don't do any work, but in fact it is very tiring." ”
Shiro was very nervous at first, and he was very stumbling when he spoke, but in the end, he spoke very coherently.
But all those who came to help when they heard these words were in an uproar, and they never thought of it.
They just helped with a gesture, but it was just a matter of building a pigsty and a sheepfold.
Who knows, the Tang family actually took out such a good meal to entertain them, and now they have to pay them.
So one by one, they all waved their hands, saying that they couldn't accept the money.
Among them, flowers became the mainstay: "San Lang, Shiro, don't be so polite, you are all people in the same village, and it's just a small thing like building a pigsty and a sheepfold, and you don't need to be paid.
If you insist on being more serious, we are not polite to have made such a sumptuous dinner for us to eat, and that dinner will cost a lot of money, so the salary is not needed. ”
But Shiro didn't agree with Hua Cheng's words: "Uncle, you can't say that, you do the work for our family, and we take care of your food, which is also human nature.
But this salary must be given, otherwise where will our family dare to ask you to help do some other work in the future?
Moreover, if you do not accept this money today, in the future, if there is a place in our family that needs your help, we will not look for you. ”
San Lang, who is not very good at words, also nodded in agreement: "Shiro is right. ”
Shiro saw Saburo praising himself, and he was almost happy that he couldn't find the north.
In the end, Saburo quietly pinched him behind Shiro, and Shiro returned to his original state, and continued: "Please also ask uncles, aunts, aunts, and aunts, you all line up and come up one by one to receive the money." ”
So the group of people lined up half worried, half happy, to receive the wages Tang Xiaosu gave them.
Saburo watched the man on the roster receive his salary, and he crossed out the man's name, while Shiro counted the copper plates and handed the money to the man.
The two brothers cooperated quite tacitly, and after a while, the wages of the group of people were paid.
The people who received the unexpected wages smiled one by one, and left happily with their wages.
Those who haven't gotten paid yet, only the Xu family, who didn't queue up, and Erlang, who was not in the crowd, were left.
San Lang and Shiro took the initiative to come to Liu's front and put five copper plates in front of Xu's: "Third aunt, this is your salary, you must not refuse." ”
Without waiting for Xu to say anything, San Lang and Shiro went to find Erlang's shadow again.
After finding Erlang again, he couldn't help but give the five copper plates to Erlang.
It just so happened that at this time, Tang Yaorong and the Li family, as well as Tang Yaozu and the Wang family, came back together.
Tang Yaozu and Wang listened to Tang Novel's words, rented a donkey cart and came over, and just spent all the copper plates that Tang Xiaosu gave them.
And they met Tang Yaorong and Li in the middle of the road, so they brought the two of them back together.
Tang Yaozu and Wang, each of them carried a wooden bucket of pigs into the water and walked slowly into the yard.
And Tang Yaorong and Li were one step ahead of them. appeared in the courtyard, and at a glance saw the scene where Saburo and Shiro gave money to the Xu family.
Li's eyes flashed with a light of calculation: "San Lang, Shiro, how can you give the third brother and sister money, but what help did the third brother and sister help you?" ”
San Lang and Shiro originally didn't want to deal with the ill-intentioned Li family, but their tutoring and politeness made them have to deal with the Li family: "Big aunt, the third aunt has cooked for our family, so I have the salary for the third aunt." ”
Li immediately said in a shrill voice: "Cooking, just cook a meal for your family, just give so many copper plates, has your family made a fortune, or has you picked up any treasure?" ”
Although the Li family doesn't look down on these copper plates, they have now separated, and they went out today to do the separation paperwork.
So at this moment, just wait for the harvest in the autumn, divide the grain and the land, and they will all become several families cleanly.
In the future, Tang Yaorong will no longer be able to squeeze a penny from the Tang family, although they now have enough money in their hands to go to Beijing to take the exam.
However, in order to be more comfortable on the way to Beijing, Li decided to save a little more money, so he saved more money.
So Li looked at San Lang and Shiro again, and said: "San Lang Shiro, otherwise, the eldest aunt will also cook a meal for you, and you will also give the eldest aunt a few copper plates, no, no, no, in the future, your family's breakfast, noon and dinner, the eldest aunt will all wrap it up for you, you press the meal, and give the money to the eldest aunt." ”
Tang Yaorong frowned tightly and looked at Li disapprovingly, his wife has always been arrogant, and under normal circumstances, she doesn't look down on these copper plates.
Why do you suddenly want to help others cook today, just for those copper plates, his wife is poor jingle, or has changed her temperament.
San Lang and Shiro politely rejected Li: "Auntie, you think too much, we can cook the food we eat at our own house, and today we invite the third aunt to cook, just because someone helped us build a pigsty and a sheepfold,
Because there are more people, I can't do it by my mother alone, so I invited the third aunt and a few aunts in the village to help together, so I don't need someone to cook every day. ”
Even though Li Shidang was a little embarrassed, he turned his eyes to the side, and saw what San Lang and Shiro said, the pigsty and sheepfold that had just been built, and the little piglets and lambs that had not yet been put in next to the pigsty and sheepfold.
So Li Shi forcibly diverted the topic, pretending to be surprised and said: "Ah, San Lang, Shiro, when did you buy the little piglets and lambs?" ”
After finishing speaking, he sighed slowly: "Hey, your family is really rich now, and you have made a lot of money by going to the town to sell breakfast during this period of time, and I don't know if you have any money left in your hands now,
Your uncle is going to Beijing to take the exam, but he still lacks some silver, otherwise, your family will support your uncle first, and then return the silver to you after your uncle is in high school. ”
San Lang and Shiro didn't know how to refuse the Li family who made such a request, their family really didn't have that much money, and even if they did, they couldn't lend it to the Li family.
Because they know that Xiaomei is going to buy that piece of mountain, and the money needed to buy the mountain may not be enough, and they may need to borrow it from others.
At this time, Tang Xiaosu came out of the kitchen, looked at Li and said with a smile: "Auntie, you want to borrow money from us, Xiao Su heard it right, we were still saying just now that our family has no money, and we want to borrow a little silver for the uncle and aunt after they come back." ”
"You guys, what are you borrowing money for? Your uncle is going to Beijing to take the exam, so you need to be entangled, you need silver, you stay at home, that is, you don't worry about eating and drinking, what do you want so much silver for? Li Shidang's face changed.
Tang Yaorong glanced at the Li family unhappily, and the Li family, who was getting more and more different from before, interrupted what the Li family was about to continue to say: "You just shut up, I haven't seen you idle since I came back." ”
Whoever Li contradicted didn't dare to contradict Tang Yaorong, after all, Tang Yaorong was her future dependent, so as soon as Tang Yaorong's words were finished, Li immediately shut up.
Tang Yaorong turned to Tang Xiaosu at this time, and asked Tang Xiaosu with a kind face: "Xiao Su, what are you borrowing money from the uncle, are you in any trouble at home, how much do you need, uncle will see if he can free up a little bit for you, if you need less, the uncle may still be able to help, if there are a lot, the uncle has no choice." ”
Tang Xiaosu just said it casually, but he didn't expect Tang Yaorong to really say that he wanted to lend her money.
So she tentatively said a number to see if her uncle really wanted to borrow money from their family.
"Uncle, I want to borrow ten taels of silver from you and go to the town to rent a shop, so that in the future, no matter whether it is windy or rainy, we will have another fixed place to sell breakfast.
If the sale is stable, the money may be more in the future, and I also want to build some tools, that is, I can make other tools earlier, so I need more money, but our family does not have so much money, so there is no way to borrow a little from the uncle. ”
After Tang Xiaosu finished speaking, he saw that Tang Yaorong was motionless, and Tang Xiaosu's heart suddenly went up and down.
She was waiting for Tang Yaorong's answer, if Tang Yaorong was really willing to move ten silver cars for her and was really willing to lend her money, then this Tang Yaorong was not so hopeless, and she could also have more dealings with Tang Yaorong in the future.
Who knows, Tang Yaorong hasn't shown them the situation yet, and the Li family, who was standing next to him and didn't speak, stopped doing it, and immediately jumped up, changed his previous elegance, pointed at Tang Xiaosu and said: "Okay, you Tang Xiaosu, I haven't paid attention to you for a few days, you dare to calculate your uncle's money, what kind of heart are you, don't you want your uncle to be in high school, don't you want your uncle to become an official master, you are afraid that after your uncle becomes an official master, he will press you." ”
