Chapter 108 The Onlookers

The housekeeper stopped when he heard Lai Shi's cry, turned his head back to look at Lai Shi and said:

"Old sister-in-law, this gift was sent to Lizheng by the order of the boss. The villain can't be the master. If he fails to do this, the boss will punish him!"

Hongji heard what his mother said, and then heard what the housekeeper said. There were still people around the gate of the yard, and he quickly persuaded him: "Mother, the housekeeper is doing business, so don't make trouble."

"Son, how can you say it's making trouble? He brought things to our house, of course it was for our house."

"Old sister-in-law, there are some for your family. Don't worry when we come back from business..."

At this moment, Hongji's father glared at Lai, and then said to the housekeeper with a smile: "Don't worry about the housekeeper's work, you and Hongji will take care of the matter first, do the work first, and we will cook a table of good dishes for you in a while."

"Big brother, in order to get things done faster, we won't eat at your place to save you trouble. We have horses and carriages here. If things go well, we can take Lizheng to the county to handle errands."

After the housekeeper said this, he remembered that the wood for the two-horse cart hadn't been removed yet, so he asked the guards and the coachman to do the work first, move the wood into the thatched house, and cover it with a good raincoat.

When it rains, the wood should not be damp. Put some straw on the place where the wood is placed, and the ground will also be damp.

At this time, winter is relatively dry, and who can guarantee that it will not rain in winter?

Hongji was standing at the gate of the yard with his little girl in his arms, and Siwa was waiting for the housekeeper to come out, watching the villagers at the gate of their yard.

There are old and young, there are men and women, and it is not busy at this time. Seeing the carriage coming in, some people want to gossip in the family's yard, but they don't do the work. They are at the door of other people's houses with hoes Onlookers.

There are also those who pick buckets of urine, or buckets of urine, and they are not afraid that their baskets or buckets of urine will suffocate others.

"Hongji, what are they doing? Are they sending materials to work for your family? I really envy you. You have a good wood art song. We have no money to make in slack, but you can make money every day."

The big man carrying the urine bucket said.

When Hongji heard someone ask him, he didn't pay attention just now, and he didn't leave when he saw this person picking up the urine bucket. Fortunately, they were all farmers, otherwise they would definitely be angry. No one is picking up urine and feces to watch at other people's doorsteps.

"Well, yes, brother, you go and send your load of fertilizer to the field first, maybe our family has work, and you won't be so free in the future."

"Really? Brother, if there is work to do, you must let your brother participate."

This person smiled in surprise, and he didn't hesitate to carry things away at the first time. He even gossiped and wanted to know what kind of work was there so that he could have a job. Could it be that Hongji's family took in apprentices!
This big man never thought that he could do the job of an apprentice himself, so that the boy in the family could learn from Hongji, and if the boy in the family learned the skills, then their family would be like Hongji's family, with work all year round.

This big man's wife is very good at giving birth, and she gave birth to five boys. These half-children are poor, let alone give them the opportunity to study, it is good to support them.

A lot of the work at home is done by the boy. As an old man, he has no work to do in the slack season, so he goes to gossip while carrying things.

"Their family won't accept you if they have work, you stupid, why don't you hurry up and pick up dung."

The man holding the hoe held the hoe in one hand and covered his nose with the other. He didn't mean to be a man picking up excrement.

It's just that he was afraid that this person would be too rude. There were five boys in the family who came to fight. In a rural family, there are more men. No one dares to bully.

However, a skilled person like Hongji has so many daughters in his family, and no one dares to bully them. Many people have a purpose and dare not offend Hongji's family, thinking that when their family accepts apprentices, they can accept their own daughters. People are apprentices.

"Cut, I'm stupid, how good are you? I didn't say that I have a job. There are five boys in my family. If Hongji has a job, he can accept my five small characters to help. Just eat and don't charge wages." It will be all right."

"Brother, those boys of yours eat so much, it's better to pay them for food than others."

"Ha ha ha ha"

Some people laughed at the big man, and others laughed along with him.

Acer has not yet settled things, he can't say it first, he can only say:

"If the folks in our village have work, of course we will let the people in the village do it first. You go back first. When the time comes, our family will be helping to register, or when Steward Tang is accepting workers, people in the village will just come and sign up."

"Really? Then it's settled, our family will also sign up."

Acer nodded.

At this time, the housekeeper watched the guards move the materials to the thatched house. At this time, when he came out of the gate of the yard, he smelled the smell of feces and urine, and kept fanning:

"Who, why are you carrying feces at the door of other people's houses? You have to divide your time if you want to chat?"

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'll send the things to the field first." The man didn't dare to offend Steward Tang, so he picked up the things and left immediately.

The man with the hoe hadn't left yet, so he said to Butler Tang, "Brother Hongji just said that we have something to do in the future, right? Butler Tang?"

"This matter has not been settled yet, you have work to do, go to work first! If it is settled, we will notify you at that time."

Tang Butler knew that these farmers wanted to find a job during the slack season and earn more money for the New Year.

He didn't say anything in ten strokes, he wouldn't talk about things to the full, what he said was like water poured out, if he didn't come back at that time, he would cause trouble.

Steward Tang said solemnly, those villagers and women could only nod their heads.

Hongji held his daughter in his arms, and took his daughter with the other hand, leading Butler Tang to the main entrance of Lizheng. His house did not close the gate of the yard.

"Uncle, are you home?"

Someone in the yard heard the voice and could tell that this person was an old lady, the right lady.

"Is Hongji? Come in, your uncle is at home." The aunt had already seen the gift that the butler was carrying.

"Ma'am, we have something to do with uncle, this is the butler of the Tang residence."

Hongji walked in and introduced the housekeeper to the aunt.

"A small gift is not a respect." The housekeeper handed the gift to the aunt.

"Butler Tang is too polite, come as soon as you come, why bother with a gift?"

"It should be, it should be."

"Then I won't be polite, hehe." The aunt just said a few words of politeness, and took the gift from Butler Tang, knowing that the gifts from rich people must be more expensive.

Lizheng heard the voice, walked out of the room, welcomed the people into the living room and chatted with them.

"Butler Tang, what can I do with an old man?" Li Zheng didn't dare to say that he was a petty official in front of Steward Tang, and a petty official was not considered an official in front of a housekeeper from a rich family.
