Chapter 066: A Poor Family

Xue Lengyu shook his head helplessly: "Did you hear what I said?" In my house, I don't have to call myself a slave or a maid, and I don't have to kneel down and salute. I'm just paying you to help with some housework, just a commoner like you, not your master. ”

Xiao An and Xiao Tao glanced at each other, not knowing what Xue Lengyu had in mind, so they didn't dare to speak out.

Xue Lengyu looked at them again, and had no choice but to say: "My family is such a rule, if you really can't accept it, then go back to the palace." I'll find someone else. ”

When the two of them heard this, their faces changed, and they knelt down together: "Girl, don't drive the slave (slave) away." ”

Xue Lengyu was startled, and hurriedly helped the two of them up: "What are you doing here?" I'm not trying to do anything to you. ”

Xiao An Xiao Tao fell to the ground and refused to get up, Xiao Tao's voice trembled with a hint: "Miss Xue, don't drive us away, we went back to the palace, Lord Shu will definitely think that we are not well served." ”

Xue Lengyu really couldn't stand it, but he couldn't stand the two kneeling on the ground, so he had to say, "Okay, if I don't drive you away, you get up first." ”

"Thank you, Miss Xue." Seeing that Xue Lengyu said to leave them, the two of them smiled again.

Xue Lengyu saw that the two of them got up, Fang smiled and said, "You can stay, but you still have to abide by my rules." What do you think? ”

Xiao An Xiaotao was silent for a moment, and had to say, "We know, Miss Xue." ”

"Well, that's good." Xue Lengyu smiled even more: "In my place, there are no many scruples in the house, all I have to do is do laundry, buy vegetables, cook rice, etc., and take care of my father and mother, that's it." ”

"Yes." Xiao An Xiaotao said: "We will take care of the girl, as well as the lady, the master." ”

Xue Lengyu's eyelids jumped, Madame, master? Presumably, Father Xue and Mother Xue are not used to such titles, so they thought about it and said, "This...... My father, mother, you just need to call Aunt Xue and Uncle Xue, don't be Mrs. Lord, they are not used to it. ”

Xiao An Xiaotao no longer strongly objected this time, but said, "Yes, it's all up to Miss Xue." ”

Xue Lengyu nodded with satisfaction, thought of a key question, and hurriedly said, "By the way, how much money do you get a month in the mansion?" ”

This time it was Xiao An who spoke: "Miss Xue, Xiao Tao and I are both third-class people in the house, and we only have one or two silver per month. ”

"Yes." Xue Lengyu thought for a while: "In my place, I will give you two taels a month, as long as you do your best." But if I find out who has unclean hands and feet, or neglects and despises the elderly, don't blame me for saying that you are not in front of Shuli. ”

In Xue Lengyu's opinion, there must be a brave man under the heavy reward, and this two taels of silver is not a big deal.

Xiao An said: "Thank you Miss Xue for the reward, but we can only ask for one or two of this silver a month." ”

"What's wrong?" Xue Leng Yuqi said: "There are still people who have a lot of money." ”

Xiao An explained: "Miss Xue, that's the case. Master Shu said that the girl is not usually concerned about money, so she is not very clear about the market price. Therefore, if you want the younger ones to take as much as they want in the house, they will take as much as they want from Miss Xue, not much. ”

Dizzy, it seems that Shuli is afraid that Xiao An Xiaotao will rip off his money? Xue Lengyu smiled: "It's not in the way, you take it, I won't tell Shuli." ”

"Nope." Xiao Tao said: "Miss Xue, don't be difficult for us." In fact, the monthly money of one or two pieces of silver per month is quite a lot for us. ”

"yes." Xiao An continued: "Miss Xue, if you insist, then we have to go back to the mansion and confess to Lord Shu." ”

There are times when money can't be sent. Xue Lengyu looked at the two of them for a while, and saw that the two of them had no intention of compromise, so he had to say: "Okay, it's up to you, one tael of silver a month." But if you feel that it is too little, you can always tell me, and I can add it to you. ”

If they can really do things honestly and diligently, saving a little money is not a bad thing for Xue Lengyu.

"Thank you, Miss Xue." Xiao An Xiaotao looked respectful, but she couldn't help but think in her heart. This woman that adults like is really special.

At the beginning, it seemed that I heard that it was the princess who gave it to the prince, but overnight, she became an alienated woman that the prince also tacitly acquiesced to. When she came, Xiao An Xiaotao still had a trace of disdain in her heart, but because she didn't dare to disobey the order of Shuli, she had to come, and now that she saw Xue Lengyu and Yan Yuese, she took the initiative to add money, although she couldn't ask for it, but her heart was much more comfortable.

Xue Lengyu treats them as equal people, rather than being superior. Even if they are used to nodding and being cautious about people. But who wouldn't want to straighten up and stand and talk.

"Alright." Xue Lengyu said: "I won't say more. Little Peach, you go to the kitchen and see if there's anything to burn, and make some food. ”

"Yes." Xiao Tao answered, turned around and went into the kitchen.

Xue Lengyu was thinking about whether there was anything for Xiao An to do, but when she saw Xiao Tao turn out of the kitchen again, she looked at her with some embarrassment.

"What's wrong?" Xue Lengyu said busily.

Xiao Tao hesitated for a moment, but still said, "Miss Xue, there seems to be no more food in the kitchen." ”

"Huh?" Xue Lengyu really hadn't entered the Xue family's kitchen. Didn't think about it.

It is said to be a kitchen, but in fact it is just a grass shed on the edge of the house that can provide a little shelter from the wind and rain. Xue Lengyu walked in, and couldn't help but feel sad when she saw it, not to mention the equipment, she didn't know what should be in the ancient kitchen. I saw two bowls of leftovers on the stove, and they looked coarse, nothing more than green vegetables and radishes. On one side of the ground, there are a few radishes and a few cabbages.

I looked around in the kitchen, and I didn't see any meaty meat, and in a corner of the kitchen, there was a small basket with eggs.

Xue Lengyu sighed, wiped his somewhat dry eyes, and called, "Little Peach." ”

"Yes." Xiao An hurriedly said, "What do you have to say Miss Xue?" ”

Xue Lengyu said: "There are chickens in the yard outside, you go and kill a chicken and stew chicken soup." Then he burned these vegetables, and when his father and mother woke up, he waited for them to eat. “

"Yes." Xiao Tao said, and said hesitantly: "But the chicken ......"

Xiao Tao is also from a farmer's family, and knows that the chicken is raised, which is used for laying eggs, not for stewing chicken soup.

"Out of the way." Xue Lengyu said: "Just do what I say." Be gentle and don't wake up the elderly. ”

"Yes." Xiao Tao said busily. I can't help but understand in my heart, with the relationship between Xue Lengyu and Shuli, will I still care about this little thing?

"Ann." Xue Lengyu said: "It's still some hours before noon, you go to the street with me, go outside to buy some vegetables, it just so happens that I only have silver tickets here, and I have to exchange some silver to use." "According to Xue Lengyu's knowledge, it seems that the silver ticket has to be exchanged at a place similar to a bank, called a money bank.

"Yes." Xiao Andao.

"That's right." Xue Lengyu said: "The silver ticket of King Mu's Mansion, where should I redeem it." ”

Xiao An said: "Miss Xue, the silver tickets in the mansion are all exchanged at the Dahe Qian Zhuang in Murong Mansion. ”
