The peasant girl is not strong

Chapter 199
The scholar opened the door, saw Steward Zhao whom he knew, and warmly greeted him to enter the house.

The butler held a gift box in his hand, which contained a box of snacks, and nodded when the scholar invited him in.

He entered the yard and looked all the way. There were only the couple here, but the small yard was cleaned up, and the occasional fallen leaves were swept away.

Entering the living room, I saw the scholar's wife, a relative of their wife, serving him tea.

"Housekeeper Zhao, please drink tea."

The scholar asked Steward Zhao to sit down, and the couple also sat down beside them.

"Well, thank you." Butler Zhao sat down on a chair beside him.He took a sip of tea from the teacup, then put it down again, and then looked at the sitting couple, sizing up their expressions.

"Steward Zhao, does my cousin have any orders?"

The wife knew that this cousin had been helping her a lot, and she was very grateful in her heart. She was not blessed by her family, but had relatives to take care of her. Unreliable.

It also gave the husband and wife a lot of confidence. There were spiritual and external help, and indeed some support for their difficult life.

"I'm here this time to ask you something."

"Butler Zhao, may I ask?"

"The relatives of our wife's family want to invite two gentlemen of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, a man and a woman. I wonder if you and your wife would like to be gentlemen?"

Steward Zhao's sudden questioning, the couple were not mentally prepared, and after looking at each other, they were silent.

Steward Zhao took a look at the husband and wife, and continued:
"You might as well think about it. You are just going to be husbands, and the salary is high. The place you are going to is only a day away from the imperial capital. Besides, it is our wife's relatives. You will definitely not be treated badly."

The couple is still considering it. It's not that the job Steward Zhao said is not attractive to them, but the couple can't accept it all at once, and they want to leave the imperial capital and become husbands outside.

Seeing that they didn't speak, Steward Zhao continued to lure them with words:
"We all know the situation of your husband and wife. If this young man wants to get a good reputation, he must have a good environment to study. You are renting a house here now. The pressure is so great, and the environment in the imperial capital is not conducive to it. You live."

Steward Zhao said so, the scholar was a little moved, the pressure of life made him breathless, even after setting up a stall, he would study when he came back at night, it can be seen that his wife was busy working, and he couldn't earn living expenses when he went out to set up a stall.

Soon the house will have to pay rent again. If they don't do this job, they may not be able to maintain it in the future.

Thinking of this, the scholar said to Steward Zhao:

"What the housekeeper said is very reasonable. Will the place that invites us to work give us room and board?"

Hearing what the scholar said, Steward Zhao knew that he was a little loose, so he said again:
"It's for sure that you don't have to worry about food and lodging. You will also be ordered to work for your workers. You don't have to deal with such diseases as eating and washing clothes. You can just do your teaching life well."

At this time, as a wife, I also considered whether the people who went there would make things difficult for them?

For example, will the husband and wife separate?Living separately and eating separately is another challenge for them. The two husband and wife live in different places, and their relationship may gradually fade away, and all her efforts will be in vain.

"Housekeeper Zhao, can you tell me what kind of relative this cousin is? How is his family? Do we work together as husband and wife? If we work together, will we have the same place to eat and live?"

When the wife asked this question, it seemed that both the couple had their own heart-warming thoughts. Butler Zhao felt that this time the matter would be successful, so he said:

"You've heard that we have an aunt who married in another county, and you and your wife invited her to be a teacher of musical instruments. It would be better if you could teach them other skills, and there is another part-time business. "

Steward Zhao paused, looked at the couple and said:

"Our aunt's grandson, the sons and daughters of a former nanny, want to hire a musical instrument teacher. Of course, the cost of this part-time job will be paid separately."

The husband and wife nodded. It seems that the salary of this job is quite good, but they looked around at the home here. They managed a lot of property in order to establish a home. These are all money, and they are reluctant to part with all the things they have used. I can't bear to part with the plants and trees here.

Butler Zhao saw their reluctance. His wife had guessed their hesitation a long time ago. She wanted to help this relative. The price of this small courtyard in the capital is not cheap.

But for their wife who wants to help someone, this is just a small matter, so that the couple can work for their relatives with peace of mind, then show a little sincerity and do a little favor to achieve the goal.

"Are you worried that this place will be rented out to others while you are away? Don't worry about it. When Madam sent me to invite you, she said that she would buy this small courtyard for you and make it your future home."

The husband and wife were terrified when they heard Steward Zhao's words. The scholar said, "No way, no way, we can't accept such an expensive yard. We can buy it ourselves when we make money."

"Thank you, cousin, but we can't accept it. Your husband is right. We can't accept such a heavy gift even since."

The wives saw that their husband had such a backbone, and felt that they had married the wrong person, and their life was difficult, but they did not lose their fighting spirit.

The couple here are not greedy to have such a character. Butler Zhao feels that his wife's help to them may be due to their character. Such a person will be grateful if he really becomes a success in the future.

Butler Zhao felt that he was willing to help them out.

"Our wife said that you and my wife are relatives. If you feel guilty, you should teach and educate his relatives with your heart. If you still don't accept it, then you should lend money to you and wait for you to earn money in a year or two. Once you have enough money, you can pay back the money and have your own house again.”

Steward Zhao's suggestion made the couple look at each other heartily. At this moment, the couple looked at each other with deep affection in their eyes.

If the couple can work hard for one or two years and earn money to earn a house, they estimate that they will have their own small house on this map in the future, and they will not have to worry about rent in the future. This is a good job.

One or two years is not a long time, and they are willing to work hard for these two years, just so that they can have a family and continue to live here in the capital.

As a husband, he is guilty of not being able to give his wife a home. If he can have a home after struggling for a year or two, it is a kind of self-esteem as a man. Come back here to live.

Even if he can no longer take the exam, he can continue to teach and educate people.

The one or two years of teaching and educating people will lay the foundation for their future life.

In fact, scholars also have their own pride. Although they look unchanged on the surface, they are hesitant in their hearts.
