Chapter 066: Settle down
Xiangyang on the second floor is a whole row of rooms, the voice is in the middle, Muyang walked over, and saw that the door was open, a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl was laying sheets on the bed, and a teenage boy was pulling underneath, cooperating with his sister's movements.
Muyang smiled, this should be the two children of the Zhang family and his wife, it seems that they are both sensible children, and now they are helping their parents do things.
"Where's your parents?" Muyang asked, standing at the door.
"Ah" came the girl's soft exclamation, the little boy glanced at Muyang, quickly put down the hand that was clutching the sheets and stood up, the girl also climbed out of bed, and the two children stood side by side, looking at Muyang a little crampedly.
"Little sister, where are your parents?" This time it was Xia Kejun who asked.
It may be that Xia Kejun is more acceptable, and then the girl replied: "They went out to throw out the garbage, and they will be back soon, you are the master and the wife." He lowered his head as he spoke.
Xia Kejun had a smile on his face, walked into the dot and said, "What old lady, my name is Xia Kejun, you can call me Sister Xia." But Xia Kejun did not introduce Muyang's name.
A few people gathered in the hall, Muyang was very satisfied with the fruits of their labor, even if it was a housekeeping company in later generations, it was estimated that they would not be clean.
Muyang briefly inquired about the situation, the man's name was Zhang Changjiu, the woman's surname was Wu, and Muyang called her Mother Wu. One of the two children is named Zhang Ying and the other is Zhang Song.
"For the time being, I'm very satisfied with your work, now let's talk about your treatment, I'm not very familiar with this, you tell me how much you should be paid, I have a reference."
The husband and wife were a little confused by Muyang's words, and they also offered their own price. Of course, they didn't dare to make a price indiscriminately, but the woman said: "Sir, the market here in Shanghai is about 12 yuan per month at the level of a housekeeper, 6 to 8 yuan for a handyman, and about 5 yuan for a small worker." ”
Wu's mother didn't directly say what their couple's salary should be, but only gave an approximate and normal salary range, Muyang felt that Wu's mother was also a very shrewd woman, but this did not make Muyang hate.
Mu Yang pondered for a while and said, "In this way, you and Lao Zhang take 8 yuan every month, what do you think." ”
The husband and wife showed a look of surprise on their faces, but Wu's mother still said: "Mr. gives me a salary of 8 yuan, I will definitely give you a good job, but I am disabled in charge, and I am afraid that I will not be able to meet Mr.'s requirements, you can give less." ”
"It's okay, you just work hard in the future. By the way, you moved here, where did their siblings live? Mu Yang pointed to the two sisters and brothers who were standing in the distance.
"We have a house on the other side of the lower block, but it's a bit messy, usually let them go out and walk around less, and when Ying'er is one or two years older, they can come out to do things, and then we will talk about it." Wu's mother replied, it seems that Zhang Changjiu is a person who doesn't like to talk, all of which are answered by Wu's mother.
Mu Yang glanced at the two sisters and brothers, then looked at Xia Kejun, and said: "Do you think this is okay, I don't think it's safe for their sister and brother to live there, and you won't rest assured, and doing things like that will also be distracting." On my side, there are just me and my wife, there are many rooms in this house, enough to live, and there are more people and lively, you can let both sisters and brothers live. If your daughter is willing to help with things, I will also give him 5 yuan a month, and I will pay a long salary in the future. ”
The husband and wife were overjoyed, and at this time Zhang Changjiu also spoke: "Thank you, sir, we must work hard, thank you, sir." ”
Flipping through these two sentences, it seems that he is an honest man.
"Okay, it's not a big deal, your family will live in the two rooms downstairs, and my wife and I will live upstairs, and now your task is to prepare dinner." After Muyang finished speaking, he took out 50 yen and handed it to Wu's mother and said: "This money is vegetable money, you will prepare a sumptuous point in the future, don't be afraid of spending money, by the way, your family's food will also come out of here, you can just watch it yourself." ”
After Mu Yang finished speaking, he stood up and said to Xia Kejun, "Let's go up and take a look at our room." ”
The largest room on the second floor is their bedroom, which is 50 square meters, a large bed is placed in the east and west directions, and the wide floor-to-ceiling curtains are opened, which are two huge floor-to-ceiling windows, and the sun shines in, making the whole room warm, and in the middle is a wooden sliding door with inlaid glass, and the outside is the wide balcony. A small door on the side is a bathroom with washing, which is very good here, so it is much more convenient to live.
The bed is a very large soft bed, two meters and a half square. Four pillars stretched out from the four corners, mosquito nets could be hung in summer, and curtains could be hung in winter.
As soon as Mu Yang stretched out his hand, he grabbed Xia Kejun's hand and took it into his arms, Xia Kejun let out a soft scream, and then fell to Mu Yang's side. Muyang turned sideways and saw Xia Kejun, who was already blushing, and couldn't help but kiss his cheek.
"Kejun, this will be our home from now on." Mu Yang supported his head with his hand and looked at Xia Kejun and said.
Xia Kejun gently turned his face to look at Muyang, his big eyes were full of happiness, he nodded lightly, made a very light hum in his nose, and then closed his eyes.
The sun was warm, the bed was soft, and the two snuggled together, which was intoxicating.
"Sir, madam, it's time to eat."
There was a shout from outside the door, it was Wu's mother's voice.
"Okay, here." Muyang responded.
They feel that the time is not long, but according to the theory of relativity, sweet time is always short, but the pain is endless, okay, let's not sigh, anyway, the two of them feel very sweet and warm together, and it is time to start dinner in the blink of an eye.
Muyang took Xia Kejun's hand and walked downstairs, came to the restaurant, and found that there were six dishes and a soup on the table, and there were only two dishes and chopsticks.
"Won't you eat?" Muyang asked.
"No, we don't eat with Mr. and Mrs., we eat in the kitchen." Mother Wu hurriedly replied.
Muyang thought about it, but didn't insist, and the two of them sat down to eat.
"Sir, Mrs., I didn't ask you two tastes before, my hometown is Shandong, and then I came to Shanghai and learned the dishes here, so I made a few dishes of each, you can taste it, if it doesn't suit the taste, I will change it next time." Wu Ma said.
"This is my mistake, my wife and I are both northerners, salty, you can make the main dish with Lu cuisine, but it can be paired with other cuisines, we can also try it, of course, you do what you can, you are not the chef of the restaurant after all, just home cooking." Muyang said.
"Yes sir, I remember." Wu Ma responded.
Muyang looked at Mother Wu, who was still standing on the side and waiting, and said, "You go to eat first, you are cleaning up after we finish eating, and you don't need to serve here." ”
Wu's mother retired, and Muyang and Xia Kejun began to enjoy the most serious meal in the past few days.
After the meal, the two of them sat and chatted in the small courtyard, and the stone bench was cushioned by Zhang Ying, and it was not cool to sit.
Xia Kejun asked softly, "Brother Mu, when are you going to start your mission?" ”
