Chapter 80: Paying Back the Money
Chunhong looked stunned. She didn't expect Brother Fang to mention the matter of Yihongyuan.
She didn't want to go that day, but it was each of them who persuaded her to go.
Women shouldn't go to Yihong Garden in the first place, and women who walk around in Yihong Garden will be considered Qinglou women. She didn't dare to move around at will, so why was it wrong?
Besides, Sister Chen didn't have anything to do that day, why blame her, what did she do wrong?
Chunhong suddenly felt a kind of grievance that had been wronged. She wanted to be angry, but she didn't dare to be angry with her brother, so she turned into tears and fell down.
Chen Xiao was silent and didn't speak. She didn't know that Fang Yu asked Chunhong to come out to look for her that day, but Chunhong refused to look for fear of getting lost.
How big is a garden to get lost? It's an excuse.
Chen Xiao knew that Chunhong was timid. But her cowardice sees what is wrong, and what is harmful to her, she is cowardly; In her favor, she is not small.
This can be called "seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages", and it is also called selfishness. Of course, she won't blame others for being selfish, people don't kill for themselves, everyone has a selfish side. It's just that their affection for so long, and she is still like this, can only show that she is essentially a very selfish person.
Chen Xiao thought of Xiaoshi to accompany her to Mutang Village. At that time, they didn't know what was going on in the village, and Xiao Shi was afraid to go, but in the end he accompanied her up.
Chunhong popped into tears, Fang Yu glanced at her, and pulled Chen Xiao aside to rest.
In the kitchen, Xiao Shi heard Brother Fang reprimanding Chunhong, and showed a sneering and smug expression.
Liu Qiao saw his expression, thought about it, called Brother Zhao over, and whispered a few words.
Brother Zhao rubbed against the wall and touched the warehouse step by step.
After a while, she came out with a money bag and said to Chen Xiao:
"Aunt Chen, I picked up a money bag, I don't know whose it is."
Chen Xiao was about to pick it up, but Chunhong saw it and took a few steps over and grabbed it.
"You steal my money bag!" Chunhong said angrily.
"I didn't steal it, I picked it up in bed." Brother Zhao's body shrank back slightly.
"That's my bed! The money bag is placed under the cover, how can you possibly pick it up, you are stealing. ”
Fang Yu saw that the money bag was bulging, and it seemed to be filled with a lot of money, and said, "Didn't you say that you don't have any money in your hand?" ”
Chunhong's face stiffened: "I'...... I literally took most of my money home. ”
She wasn't lying. Her father and mother rented a small shop in the town to sell rice noodles, and she invested almost all of her money there, leaving only a few hundred dollars on her.
Chen Xiao glanced at the money bag and didn't say anything. When she borrowed twenty taels of silver from Chunhong, she thought it was given to her. She felt that Fang Yu thought the same way. But now, why does Fang Yu want Chunhong to repay the money? It's not like his style.
Brother Zhao was a little frightened by Chunhong and shrank beside Chen Xiao.
At this time, Xiao Shi came out of the kitchen and said loudly to Chunhong: "I know how much money you have!" If you have money, you don't pay it back. I didn't want to pay back the money at all! ”
Xiao Shi's "know how much money you have" means that they are paid the same salary, how much money Xiao Shi gets, Chunhong should also have so much.
However, what Chunhong understood was that Xiao Shi knew how much money she had in her money bag.
Her face was ugly. After thinking about it, he opened the money bag and poured out all the money inside. And when they were counted, there were ten taels of silver, and more than two thousand seven hundred pieces of money.
She brought ten or two thousand Wen to Fang Yu.
"Brother Fang, I'll pay back so much first."
Fang Yu looked at Wen Qian, looked at her, and put the money away.
The atmosphere in the small courtyard was a bit dull.
Chen Xiao saw that the meal was not ready, so he continued to do woodwork. The blinds haven't been done yet.
……
In the evening, Liu Qiao and Zhao Di laid the floor in Chen Xiao's room.
Chen Xiao did not have the habit of not letting others sleep in her bed, and she made the floor because she couldn't sleep in the bed.
Fang Yu seized the opportunity to ask Chen Xiao to live with him.
Chen Xiao was pulled into the room by him. Chen Xiao asked him: Why do you care so much about the twenty taels of silver lent to Chunhong?
Fang Yudao: Beat a wolf for ten taels of silver, and buy Liu Qiao for forty taels of silver. Twenty taels is enough to buy a younger brother!
At the beginning in the mountains, Chunhong said that she would follow them, not for wages, as long as she had something to eat. At that time, I saw that she was pitiful, and accepted her. But now, he is becoming more and more dissatisfied with Chunhong and wants to expel her.
In addition, he felt that Chen Xiao gave Chunhong and Xiaoshi too much wages, and they should be given a reduced salary.
The two muttered and discussed for a while.
……
On the second day, Chen Xiao found a craftsman to build the roof, made the shutters and installed them, and the wooden house bath was completed.
The bathroom was vacated, and Liu Qiao's mother and daughter moved in.
At dinner in the evening, Chen Xiao announced that from next month, his salary will be adjusted.
Cao Yong, Erlong, and Chunhong are three taels of silver per month, Liu Qiao is two taels per month, and Xiaoshi is five taels per month.
Liu Qiao heard that he also had a salary, and he couldn't believe it: "Owner, I also have a salary?" ”
Chen Xiao: "Yes. But it's just that you have it, and you don't have it. ”
Liu Qiao never expected that he would be a slave who sold himself into a slave and actually had a salary!
Chunhong asked, "Sister Chen, what about my previous Yicheng ......?" ”
Chen Xiaodao: "From next month, according to the new rules. ”
Little Stone frowned and drooped his head. Before, he felt that the salary given by Sister Chen was too high, which stupid boss would do this. When he thought of the words he had said in Nanzhong County, he really shot himself in the foot. However, five taels of silver a month, which he could not get elsewhere.
In addition, he was homeless and used this place as a home. Sister Chen said that she wanted to buy land and build a house, but they didn't have that much money. He understood that Sister Chen and Brother Fang were short of money.
Chunhong said: "Sister Chen, Xiao Shi is behind me, he has five taels of silver, and I ...... the same as Xiao Shi."
Fang Yudao: "Xiao Shi followed us before and after running, and did a lot of things. You're in the store, that's all you get. ”
Chunhong: "I'll also run before and after you." ”
Fang Yu: "I asked you to find your Sister Chen, but you didn't want to." Where do you run before and after? ”
Chunhong said: "It was after I ran before and after I opened the Chunji Restaurant. ”
Fang Yu said coldly: "You mean, without you, we wouldn't be able to open a Chunji Restaurant?" ”
Chunhong's face sank, and their attitude towards her in the past two days made her feel that they were just going to drive themselves away.
She thought for a while and said to Chen Xiao: "Sister Chen, can you settle my salary today." "She didn't want to be angry with them here anymore.
Before, she could get a lot of silver every month, no matter what kind of anger, she could endure it. But in the future, with only three taels of silver a month, she felt no need to stay here any longer.
Away from here, she can run her own eateries. Be your own boss and make your own money, why be angry here.
Chen Xiao looked at her as if she was resolute and resolute, and asked Xiaoshi to bring the account books and settle the wages.
Today is the 25th, and there are only a few days until the end of the month. After Chen Xiao finished settling the accounts, Chunhong could get nine taels of silver.
Chunhong said: "I borrowed your twenty taels of silver, and I paid back twelve taels yesterday, and I will pay back eight taels today." Give me back the IOU. ”
Chen Xiao gave her the IOU and a tael of silver, and the account was settled.
Chunhong went into the house to pack her things.
Chen Xiao said: "It's getting dark, let's leave tomorrow." ”
Chunhong sneered and left resolutely.
"She's a white-eyed wolf!" The little stone is not angry.
"You're okay with reducing wages?" Chen Xiao asked him.
"Well, there are still opinions. But I know you're short of money right now. Sister, when there is no shortage of money in the future, you can give me more, okay? ”
"Huh!"
Chen Xiao patted him on the shoulder.
