Chapter 44 Two hundred coins per month

Realizing that she had lost her etiquette, Su Yueyue hurriedly lowered her head and said, "I'm here to see Aunt Cai. She bought me for five taels of silver yesterday. I have some matters at home that I have to deal with. I made an appointment to meet here this morning. See.

I searched twice before finding this place, but she didn't seem to be there. "

Su Yueyue was a little embarrassed.

He unconsciously took two steps back. He was staring at others like that, which was a bit offending.

"Mama Cai went to the market to buy vegetables. You should come in first."

Lu Xingzhou felt a little uncomfortable all over his body, and subconsciously wanted to return to the house quickly.

"Many, thank you."

Su Yueyue was also very cautious. The identity of the person in front of her seemed to be unusual. She didn't know what to call him, so she could only lower her head and enter the yard.

"You, please sit down and rest for a while. Grandma Cai should be back soon."

After hesitating for a while, Lu Xingzhou gave a warning and entered the house on his own.

He was not used to meeting outsiders in this appearance.

The hurdle in my heart is really difficult to overcome.

Seeing him struggling up the slope made of wooden planks and closing the door quietly, Su Yueyue turned around and began to carefully examine the surrounding environment.

This yard is either big or small. To the right of the entrance is a half-sized vegetable field, but it is currently vacant. There are still some weeds growing in it. There is also a well next to the vegetable field, allowing Su Yue to Yue was a little surprised.

Those who can dig a well in their own yard are wealthy people.

Looking ahead, there is a main room directly opposite the door, with a room on each side. There are two side rooms on the left and right sides of the courtyard wall. The two rooms on the right are separated by a kitchen, and on the other side there is a kitchen in the corner. A hut was built in the corner.

After waiting for a quarter of an hour without seeing Aunt Cai come back, Su Yueyue couldn't sit still anymore.

Looking at the messy vegetable patch in the yard, she couldn't help it. She rolled up her sleeves and started weeding the ground.

Now that it is late autumn, if the vegetable plot is properly tidied up, you can also plant some cabbage and green onions.

When winter really comes, you can also eat fresh green leafy vegetables.

Lu Xingzhou originally wanted to hide in the room and read a book to pass the time, but for some reason, the words in the book seemed to have changed, and he couldn't calm down to read them.

While he was irritated, there was another rustling sound coming from outside the house. He was really curious about what the girl was doing, so he lowered his head and looked out through the gap between the windows.

I saw the thin little girl with her sleeves rolled up and squatting in the yard weeding. There were already many straws piled beside her.

As if aware of his gaze, Su Yueyue turned around and saw him.

The girl smiled lightly, and then continued to work hard, leaving Lu Xingzhou unable to recover for a long time.

He suddenly became a little more curious about the little maid he had just bought.

Aunt Cai only walked around outside the market and hurried back.

When she arrived at the door of her house, she didn't see Su Yueyue outside, so Nanny Cai felt extremely disappointed.

Could it be that that little girl really just wanted to defraud herself of the five taels of silver?
  She anxiously opened the door, but as soon as she looked up, she saw Su Yueyue who had finished tidying up the vegetable patch and was sweeping the yard with a broom.

"Mother Cai."

Su Yueyue called someone cautiously, and then hurriedly explained what happened this morning, "I have never been here before. When I came here this morning, I walked around twice before I found the place."

Aunt Cai's eyes widened and she looked up and down Su Yueyue for a long time before she spoke in disbelief, "Yes, the young master opened the courtyard door for you?"

"When I saw that there was no one at the door, I knocked several times. Perhaps the young master thought there was a visitor, so he opened the door for me."

Su Yueyue didn't understand why Grandma Cai looked like she'd seen a ghost, and she just prayed in her heart that she wouldn't be angry because she was late.

Aunt Cai nodded stiffly and turned her gaze to the neatly tidied vegetable patch.

"Did you do this too?"

She was getting older, and even when she was weeding or digging, she would feel a dull pain even when she bent down to take medicine.

Originally, she was worried that Su Yueyue was thin, but she didn't expect that she had picked up a treasure. “I saw that the vegetable field was empty, and I thought about clearing it out and planting some cabbage, green onions, etc., in case it becomes too cold to buy fresh vegetables.”

After Su Yueyue said this, she felt that she was a little too reckless.

After all, the master made the decision on his own before he opened his mouth. If he met those masters who were more thoughtful, he would probably feel that he was in trouble.

"What a capable girl."

Grandma Cai looked at the neat vegetable patch and the clean yard she had cleaned, and she couldn't be more satisfied.

"Okay, you pack up and go to the kitchen with me. I'll teach you how to make medicine later, so it's easier for you to learn."

"Yes, Aunt Cai."

Su Yueyue nodded, shoveled the debris on the ground, and then followed Aunt Cai to the kitchen.

The noise in the yard became quieter, and Lu Xingzhou breathed a sigh of relief.

It was clear that he had never felt uncomfortable at all when there were dozens of servants in his house, but now he felt completely uncomfortable even with an extra maid.

Looking at his numb legs, the young man felt an indescribable feeling in his heart.

In the kitchen, Aunt Cai put away the chicken she bought, then took Su Yueyue's hand and looked at her lovingly.

"You are a good doll."

When she held her hand and said this, Su Yueyue became a little at a loss.

"From now on, just call me mama at home. As you can see, there are only two people in this house, me and the young master. If I hadn't been old, I wouldn't have bought a maid back.

As a maid, I just hope you can take good care of the young master. "

"it is good."

Su Yueyue nodded seriously.

Since she has become the maid of this family, she should naturally take care of the master's family.

She did not feel that being a slave meant she was inferior.

If he had not chosen to sell himself into slavery, his fate might have been even worse.

She felt that the fire in her home was not an accident. The most likely reason was that her grandpa and grandma had tampered with it.

Now, just by selling himself as a slave, my mother and sister can leave the village. This is a very cost-effective deal.

"The young master's surname is Lu, and he is also a hard-working man. He is a bit withdrawn now. Apart from eating and delivering medicine, you don't have to enter his room. I will clean it myself.

You just cook three meals a day, and then boil the soup and send it out. "

"Okay, I've written it down."

"By the way, also, you should talk less about things at home when you are away, and be sure to write them down."

As she spoke, Grandma Cai seemed to have remembered something and said a little nervously, "If you meet someone you don't recognize and knock on the door, don't open it if you can. Just take care of your family's affairs.

From now on, I will give you a monthly payment of two hundred coppers. As long as you can work at home with peace of mind, I will not lose your benefits. "

"Yes."

Su Yueyue became energetic when she heard that she could still get two hundred cash per month.

Two hundred articles a month!

She didn’t know that she could earn monthly money by being a maid!

Seeing her sparkling eyes, Grandma Cai felt sorry for her for some reason.

This is also a child who has a hard life.

 Please collect, comment and recommend monthly tickets, babies (*`*)
