The best old woman is too fierce, stepping on her ex-husband and beating up her traitorous son!

Chapter 58: The wages are paid, a lot of money!
Li Xiaoyue looked at this daughter who was greedy for money and a little vain, and couldn't laugh or cry.

"We'll pay you after breakfast. Can you stop following me now? I'm going to the latrine and I don't need you to accompany me!"

Li Changle chuckled, "Mom, go quickly! I'll get you water to wash your hands!"

Other members of the Li family were also very concerned, but they did not dare to ask.

Now that my mother has given me the exact time to distribute the money, I begin to look forward to having breakfast soon.

After breakfast, Li Xiaoyue took out his salary book and read: "Li Changfu, I will work 30 days this month, one hundred cash per day, a total of three thousand cash, which can be converted into three taels of silver."

Li Changfu waved his hand and refused, "Mom, I don't need the money, so I should keep it!"

The second eldest brother, Li Changlu, who had been eager to get his wages, suddenly turned dark and rolled his eyes.

"Brother, if you don't take it, how can we have the nerve to take the wages? We have all been looking forward to it for a month and have worked hard to finally wait until this time. Don't let down the fun."

Zhou Xiaohua, of course, started to get angry towards her man, "That's right! Brother, you are the eldest, and you will account for the majority of the family's property in the future. Of course you don't care about this small amount of money, but we can't. After all, we still have a son to raise."

Li Changfu really didn't think that much at first, and what he said was true. There was no need to use the money, so he told his mother to keep it, but he ignored other people's thoughts.

"That's not what I meant, don't think too much about it." Li Changfu explained, not wanting his younger siblings to misunderstand him.

Seeing this, Li Xiaoyue waved her hand, "Okay, as promised in advance, I won't change it. Boss, take the money away quickly. If you don't spend it, give it to your wife and let Cuihong keep it. Then It’s your family’s private money.”

Seeing what his mother said, Li Changfu had no choice but to come over to collect the money, fearing to offend the public, "Thank you, mother."

After receiving the money, Li Changfu handed it to Wu Cuihong.

Wu Cuihong smiled and held the money tightly, "Don't worry, husband, I know you are filial to your mother-in-law. Later, I will go to the county to buy some good fabrics, and I will make two sets of clothes for my mother-in-law."

Li Changfu's eyes lit up when he heard this. This way he can honor his mother, "Okay, don't forget to make two more pairs of shoes. By the way, don't forget to make clothes for yourself and your children."

When Wu Cuihong heard this, her eyes immediately turned red, and she looked at Li Changfu with a little more affection, "Thank you, husband."

Li Changlu bypassed Li Changfu and Wu Cuihong and said, "Brothers and sisters-in-law, if you want to be affectionate, go to the house and don't delay us getting the money."

Wu Cuihong blushed instantly, felt a little embarrassed, put the money away and lowered her head.

Li Changfu glared at his younger brother, "You are the only one who talks too much."

Hearing her husband's protection, Wu Cuihong felt sweeter than drinking honey and felt grateful to her mother-in-law.

It is the mother-in-law who often gives advice to her husband, so the husband is so kind to her, and he must respect his mother-in-law even more in the future.

Li Xiaoyue was busy paying wages to her family at this time, but she didn't know that her eldest daughter-in-law was confessing her love in her heart.

Li Xiaoyue handed the hundred Wen to Li Changlu, staring at Li Changlu with a serious expression and solemn tone.

"If you let me know that you gamble when you are rich, I will personally chop off your fingers; if you let me know that you visit a brothel, I will castrate you with my own hands. Anyway, you already have a son, so you can keep it for me. I cause trouble.”

Li Changlu, who was still beaming at first, had just put his fingerprints on the salary book when he heard his mother's words.

The smile froze on my face!

He originally wanted to get the money and play a few games.

Before I even took action, I was scared by my mother!
"mother……"

Li Xiaoyue was serious and said in a stern tone, "I keep my word. I have more sons. One more than you is not more, and one less than you is not less. Li Changlu, I warn you, don't challenge my bottom line."

"I can kick Liu Yunde, and I can also be cruel to you. When I reach this age, I just want to live a comfortable life. If anyone causes trouble for me, I will make him have no right to cause trouble for me." Hearing this, Li Changlu shrank. Shrinking his head, he smiled in apology, "Mom, I don't dare!"

"I dare not be the best." Li Xiaoyue squinted her eyes, "Next, the third child will live longer!"

Li Changshou stepped forward without talking nonsense. He collected the money his mother gave him and said, "Thank you, mother."

"Well, I'll save it and buy a hairpin for my wife in the future." Li Xiaoyue smiled and couldn't help but tease her son who didn't talk much.

Li Changshou smiled honestly and said, "Okay!"

Li Changxi urged, "Mom, is it my turn? Mom, I've done the accounting. I copied a total of 3000, 320 notices and [-] articles."

Li Xiaoyue counted out 320 Wen, "What's the hurry? Your wages are indispensable. This is yours, sign and pledge it."

Li Changxi took the money with a smile on his face. While studying, he could still earn three hundred cash, "Thank you, mother."

This is his private money and he can spend it as he pleases.

Afterwards, Li Xiaoyue paid wages to her fifth son, two daughters-in-law, and two daughters, including Daya and Goudan.

Qin Yuyao's salary was the same as Liu Changhuan's, so she quickly refused, "Aunt Yue, I am very satisfied with the food and drink here, but I don't dare to ask for any more money."

Li Xiaoyue insisted and smiled, "Yuyao, you have to do a lot of work when you come to the house. Others have it, and so do you. You're welcome. If you have some pocket money, you can also buy some needles and thread."

Li Changle nodded repeatedly, "Yes, Cousin Yuyao, with money, we can buy beautiful silk thread braids, head flowers, and delicious food..."

Li Changhuan also persuaded: "Cousin, accept it. If you want to repay my mother, you can make a purse or a handkerchief for my mother. You are good at embroidery, and you are much better than me."

Qin Yuyao took the money and said with a smile, "Thank you, Aunt Yue."

After paying his family's wages, Li Xiaoyue said to Li Changfu and Li Changlu: "Carry the table outside for me, Changfu Changlu, help me count the money."

People who have eaten outside and come to work also know that their wages will be paid today and have been looking forward to it for a long time.

Last night, Li Xiaoyue paid her mother's wages in person.

All are based on fifty cents per person per day, including Old Man Li, 23 people, each person has one tael and five cents of silver, which is 34 taels and five cents.

In addition, Li Xiaoyue gave Old Man Li five taels of silver as filial piety money.

At this time, Li Xiaoyue counted the money according to the number of days worked, Li Changfu and Li Changlu counted the money, and Li Xiaoyue was responsible for giving the money to these people and then pressing their fingerprints.

Everyone was very happy after receiving their wages. Thirty cash a day was more than what they earned in the county. It was very good to be close to home.

"Quiet, I want to say something." Li Xiaoyue clapped her hands vigorously, "Everyone earns hard-earned money, which is not easy. I can buy some delicious food for my parents, buy a good piece of fabric for my wife... and work in my workshop. , no gambling, no visiting brothels..."

The people below were holding the wages they had just received in their arms, and responded with a playful smile, "These are not as refreshing as eating meat and drinking wine! Aunt Li, don't worry!"

As soon as he said this, everyone burst into laughter.

Li Xiaoyue also smiled and said, "As long as you know, if the wine is good and the meat is good, if you don't have enough food and drink, you will be poor, and you will be poor if you do evil things, so do it well for me."

"I'm going to build a few more brick kilns soon. When the time comes, I'll recruit those with good skills and cleverness to bake bricks, and the wages will be higher. By then, everyone who wants to build a big house will be able to buy cheap bricks!"

"Okay!" Everyone responded loudly, smiling happily and feeling that their days were promising.

Just as everyone was cheering, Brother Li hurried over on horseback, "Xiaoyue, it's not good, the government is coming to arrest you!"
