The night was like ink, the sky was full of stars, it was already midnight, but in the deepest alley of Beiguanmen, a house had not yet slept, and the light was on in the study.

"Where's the pendant?" Bai Zhe was dressed and sat at the table, his unhappy expression on his face.

"They are guarded, and there are buckets and kettles behind the doors and windows, and if I push them lightly, it will alarm them." The ghost looked helpless.

"You're a top killer, and you're stumped by buckets and kettles?" Bai Zhe's tone was a little sneering, "Are they really defensive, or are you deliberately releasing water?" ”

"I wish you could get the pendant as soon as possible, what are you doing with the water?" The ghost patiently explained, "The kettle and bucket are filled with water, and when they are pushed, they will make a sound, and there are not only them in the yard, but also a father and son, and the slightest movement will alarm them." ”

Bai Zhe pondered for a moment and said, "Then let's find a way." ”

------------------

Shen Yiyi and Xiao Pepper are not lazy people, and before Toutuo reported it, the two woke up. Little Pepper put on her clothes, took out the copper plates hidden under the pillow, and counted them one by one, but she couldn't count them, but she couldn't get half more. She lowered her head and looked at the copper plate on the bed, with a solemn expression: "Miss, this is not a problem, I will go and ask Uncle Li to help find a laundry job." ”

Laundry? Since she crossed, she hadn't seen Little Pepper wash her clothes, and when they were in Fuyang County, the clothes were sent out for others to wash!

Shen Yiyi glanced at the little pepper: "Have you washed it clean?" Don't go back and wash your clothes, but you want me to lose money. ”

The pepper wilted immediately.

When she was in the Shen family, she was Shen Yiyi's personal maid, half a deputy miss, not to mention laundry, she didn't even know how to use soap, and later came to Fuyang County, she had money in her hands, she didn't worry about her livelihood, and she didn't worry about these things.

"Look at your little frosted eggplant." Shen Yiyi pinched her face, "I have cooking skills, but I'm afraid that I won't have anything to eat?" Don't we have a few hundred dollars left, and when it gets dawn to buy a small cart, we'll go back to our old business. ”

"Miss, where can I buy a cart for a few hundred dollars, it's not enough to buy a stove!" Little Pepper glared at her angrily.

"That's ......" Shen Yiyi thought for a while, "Don't we still have two pieces of dogwood paste left, let's sell them?" ”

"Outsiders can't sell food at will, they will be arrested by the government." Little Pepper sighed on her stomach and her head drooped to the pillow.

And this rule? Shen Yiyi thought about it again: "I'll go find a restaurant to work." ”

Little Pepper's head was still hanging on the pillow: "Miss, the main store has very strict requirements for chefs, you have no one to recommend, they won't use you, you can only go to a small foot shop like Li Bo to help, but the salary of the small foot shop is definitely not high, when can we save enough money?" If your injury is not healed after six days, you have to continue to buy plasters, and within a month, you have to pay back Li Niangzi two taels of silver......"

This girl, although she is a maid, is actually a flower raised in a greenhouse, she didn't go through anything, I think when she first came out to break into society, she had two hundred yuan in her pocket, relying on part-time work, setting up stalls, selling breakfast in the morning market, selling snacks in the night market, and not saving enough money to open a restaurant. There is nothing to be afraid of without money, as long as you have hands and feet, you can always earn it.

Shen Yiyi picked Xiao Pepper's chin with one finger and forced her to raise her head: "Although the main store won't use me, I can go to the foot store to work, right?" ”

Little Pepper made her pick her chin, and her voice was a little slurred: "Yes, yes, but the foot shop pays ...... low"

No matter how low the salary is, you have to try, it's better than sitting dry, Shen Yiyi let go of Xiao Pepper's chin and said: "After dawn later, we will divide into two ways, I will ask Lao Li Tou if he hires people, you go to the tile to walk around, see if there is any small business, we can do - remember that your young lady can cook, focusing on food-related." ”

Xiao Pepper felt that Shen Yiyi was unreliable, very unreliable: "Miss, even if you want to find a foot shop helper, find a better business, look at Li Bo's shop, he hasn't seen a customer for half a day, and it is difficult for him to support himself, how can he pay you a salary?" ”

Shen Yiyi poked her head: "Silly girl, I'm a chef, not a shopkeeper, a foot shop with a good business, naturally has its own specialty dishes, how can you hire me?" ”

This is also true, Xiao Pepper suddenly felt that Shen Yiyi was a little reliable again, nodded and said, "That's okay, just do what Miss says." ”

Shen Yiyi looked at the sky outside the window, planning to sleep for a while, originally at this time, she should get up to inspect the kitchen, add water to the kimchi jar, and see if the bacon has mold, being a chef is similar to acting, one minute on the stage, ten years of work off the stage, only by preparing all aspects in advance, will she not panic when she goes to the stove.

But now she has nothing, not even an empty jar, so she can only sleep under the quilt.

Shen Yiyi yawned and got into the quilt, only to find that Little Pepper was staring at her, her eyes were complicated, but she was confused.

"What's wrong? Silly? Shen Yiyi stretched out a hand and shook it in front of her eyes.

Xiao Pepper said: "Miss, in the past, this kind of thing was all done by me, and you didn't worry about it at all." You ...... now It's like a different person, no matter what you do, you are orderly, and your head is the way. ”

How, was discovered? Shen Yiyi chuckled, trying her best to maintain her surface impassiveness: "What do you know, this is called changing a person, this is called opening the mind, becoming smart-"

But before she could finish speaking, Little Pepper spoke again: "But, whenever Miss is stupid, I think you haven't changed, and you are still the same Miss ...... before."

"What do you mean when you're stupid? When did I get stupid? I have always been wise and martial, and I am absolutely extraordinary! Shen Yiyi suddenly burst out, pressed Little Pepper's head, stuffed her into the bed, and forcibly snuffed out her little bit of justification conjecture that had just emerged.

The master and servant slept for a while, and it was not until the sound of the dawn of Toutuo beating the iron plate and knocking on the wooden fish came from the street that the two of them opened their sleepy eyes.

When Little Pepper went out to get face wash, Li Gui was cleaning the backyard, and he was still wearing broken shoes with his thumb exposed. Little Pepper hurriedly asked, "What, don't the new shoes fit?" ”

Li Gui shook his head, a hint of shyness flashed on his face: "I'm afraid that my new shoes will be dirty, so I'll put them on after sweeping the yard." ”

Poor child...... Little Pepper completely ignored that she was only thirteen years old, and she sympathized with Li Gui.

In the kitchen, steam is swirling, water is boiling on the stove, a steamer is set up on the stove, a large jar is slipping by the wall, and all kinds of air-dried melons and fruits are hanging outside the window. Lao Li tied an apron around his waist, climbed his neck around his neck, and was busy in front of the board.
