Chapter 8
Yue Yuan is really a good person, she is willing to support newcomers, provided that the newcomers can catch her eye, and now it seems that Qu Fulan has caught her eye.

She also personally sent Qu Fulan out, and then said to her: "Now you are decocting medicine for the old lady, this job can't be sloppy, and you don't need to do other things in the future, even if you have free time, resting more is better than doing it for others." Huoqiang, do you understand? If you really can’t take it easy, it’s good to learn some sewing or something.”

Qu Fulan hurriedly said: "Baitang remembers sister's suggestion, and she must pay more attention in the future."

Yue Yuan nodded, and said again: "This is a reward, go back and hide it and lock it up, so that no one who cares can see it, even though our yard is strictly controlled, it is difficult to keep some dirty hands and feet."

Qu Fulan was thinking about where the lock came from, Yueyuan took out a lock and gave it to her: "I know you are a newcomer and don't have a lock yet, this is my gift for you, the keys are here, take it."

Qu Fulan thanked Sister Yueyuan again and again, although she didn't need a lock, it was more convenient to have a lock than to have no lock.

Otherwise, like the previous Haichun Haixia, she searched through her quilts and cabinets and found nothing. At that time, there were not many rewards, and others would think that she was hiding the money on her body. Now that the rewards have increased, it is unrealistic to put them on her body .

Back in the eight-person shop, there were only two or three maids inside, and Qu Fulan didn't say anything. He walked to his cabinet, opened the cabinet, "put" the money in, and then locked it with a lock.

Others only saw her hiding the money, but didn't see how much she hid, and they didn't dare to look at it. Besides, everyone has to reward money today, so there is no need to be jealous of others.

On the contrary, these servant girls were interested in Qu Fulan's locks.

"Sister Haitang, where did you get this lock?"

Qu Fulan said it was given by Sister Yueyuan, and the maids were so envious.

"My sister is so lucky, we don't have such a blessing."

"What kind of luck?"

Haixia came back from the outside and heard it, and subconsciously answered.

Lively people are like this, they can blend into a group anytime and anywhere.

"Sister Haitang got the lock from Sister Yueyuan, we are envious."

Haixia looked at Qu Fulan's lock and said, "Although it's just a lock, it's a good lock. Even if the robbers come, it will take some effort to open it. Sister Yueyuan is really kind to you."

Although Haixia doesn't need a lock, she doesn't have to worry about being missed by thieves when she gets any good things, but who doesn't like good things?She didn't have such a good lock at home.

Qu Fulan said: "Sister Yueyuan is a person who is very clear about rewards and punishments. If the sisters do a good job, she will also reward the sisters."

Another servant girl said: "If I get a reward next time, can I ask for a lock?"

She didn't wait for others to answer after she finished speaking, she knew it was wrong.

Since it is only the master who rewards me what I want, how can I take the initiative to ask for it?

One of the maids didn't know what to think of, looked at Hai Xia and said.

"We all got rewards today. Can sister Haixia find someone to buy a lock for the sisters? We will pay monthly money in the future, so everyone can feel more at ease when they lock it up."

As soon as the words fell, everyone turned to Haixia. They couldn't leave the house casually, but Haixia was different. If she agreed to help buy the lock, everyone would be grateful.

Haixia waved her hand: "It's a big deal, tell me what price you want, and I'll bring it in tomorrow."

Even if she can't go out of the house directly to buy it, it is very easy to find someone to buy it with her parents' relationship.

Everyone was grateful to Haixia after hearing the words.

Then everyone went to work on their own.

Haixia didn't have to do anything, she lay bored on the bed, fortunately sister Haitang was there, otherwise she would have suffocated.

Originally, with Haixia's character, she would not return to the yard early, but today the second young lady returned home, and the house was only more lively than usual with the lights and festoons. It stands to reason that she would not come back until the moment before the lights were turned off.

It's a pity that she was unlucky, and her father saw her while shopping, and gave her a severe reprimand before running back in despair.

"Sister Haitang, tomorrow I will ask someone to go out and help the sisters buy locks. If you have anything you want to buy, you can tell me and I will bring it back together."

The maids in the mansion have monthly money, and the mansion also manages food and housing, and gives out new clothes in changing seasons, and there are other rewards on New Year's Day, and the treatment is very good.

But the maids can't leave the house at will, and the monthly money on them seems to be useless.

In fact, it is not the case, after all, what the mansion gives is only a set rule, if you want to have good food and clothing, you have to use your own money to make up for it.

For example, if you want to eat, you can spend money to ask someone to go out and buy it back, or you can reward the kitchen with money to add vegetables.

It really costs money in every way.

Haixia likes the sweet-scented osmanthus cake on Changning Street the most. If her parents hadn't been strict with her, she would really like to eat it every day.

Qu Fulan said: "I don't have anything to buy, what the mansion gives is enough."

If someone else said this, Haixia would have to question it, since Sister Haitang said it, she would believe it.

Haitang is not interested in asking for rewards, let alone other things?

"Sister Haitang doesn't need money right now, so she's not interested in rewards, but when she gets married in the future, she must prepare some dowry for herself in advance."

"Cough cough." Qu Fulan was drinking tea when he was choked and said after a while, "How old are you, that you start thinking about these questions?"

Hai Xia looked less than ten years old.

Haixia said: "My mother said that the girl's family will marry in the future, and there must be a dowry when you marry. You must start preparing for the dowry early, otherwise you will be looked down upon by others."

The little girl was still young, and she didn't know how to be shy when she said these words.

Qu Fulan knew that what Haixia said was right, normal ancient thinking, but she would not agree with this point of view, how other people have nothing to do with her, she only knew that she was a third-class maid, and it was important to get promoted first.

When going to bed at night, Qu Fulan counted the money in the space. She was not as uninterested in money as Haixia said. She hadn’t reached the state where all things are empty, but she knew that the reward would be hers sooner or later. Just go to get it, and you can leave a good impression on your immediate boss that you don't fight or grab it.

A servant must abide by his duty, and only by doing things honestly can the master like him.

She has always thrown the money into the space when she got the bounty, and she didn't count it carefully. Now, when she looked at it, she found that she had a lot of savings.

When she saw a doctor for the old lady, she got 20 taels of silver plus a bracelet and a string of jewels.

The monthly rate for the first-class girl in Pei's mansion is one tael, the second-class girl is one hang, and the third-class girl is five hundred dollars.

Today, Sister Yueyuan received another two hundred coins for her.

Now her savings are equivalent to nearly two years' wages of a maidservant, not including gold bracelets and jewelry.

Hey, in the days when she lost her freedom, only this money could make her feel better.
