Princess of Nongmen

Chapter 232 Find Chun Niu as a helper
Then Liu Ya followed Chun Niu into the house.The main room is quite large, and the window paper on several windows has been replaced with new ones, making the room bright and clean; although there is only one set of tables and chairs, which are still small, the room looks quite spacious.

But if you look closely, you can see that the window lattices have been damaged, and the ground is full of small uneven pits where water leaks in rainy days; some parts of the wall have lost mud, and the mud and grass inside are exposed, which shows that this house is really old and old. broken.

Liu Ya turned around, and Siping also came out from the back room, bowing to Liu Ya, smiling very politely and honestly.

Liu Ya quickly waved her hand, telling Siping not to do this, and then said to Chunniu: "I'm relieved when you settle down, I'm here today to give you money. It's two days earlier than expected, but you should give it to your natal family earlier. It's fine to go back, your father's illness can't be delayed."

After speaking, Liu Ya took out the purse and handed it to Chun Niu.

Chun Niu was stunned when she heard this, she didn't expect Liu Ya to raise money so quickly.But after receiving the money bag in his hand, he regained his senses, weighed something wrong, quickly opened it and said, "Ya'er, it's more than five taels, not two taels. Didn't I tell you, we Can you make up three taels of silver? Just lend me two taels of silver, and I will pay you back the two taels of silver within a year."

Liu Ya said: "Oh, I agreed to lend you five taels, so I will give you five taels. Don't sell your family's food, you and Siping live without food? If you eat bran and swallow vegetables all day long, you won't lose weight. If you have the strength to work, give me back what you can do to make money. Also, don’t keep the two taels of silver that you split up. Hurry up and fix the house. I’ll see if I can find you a job in a few days. Help me directly, and I will pay you."

When Liu Ya said that she wanted to find a job for herself, Chun Niu smiled and agreed: "Okay, I will do whatever you ask me to do, let alone whether you get paid or not, I can be your maid."

"No, I don't need maids right now. But I do lack someone who can help me wholeheartedly. If you are willing to help me, I guarantee that your family will be able to build a new house in a year. But then again, there are I don't want to be single-minded." Liu Ya said the good things, the truth, and the bad things first.

Chunniu nodded and said: "I won't say anything about being an ox or a horse for you. Anyway, I am a real person. If I accept your great love, it is equivalent to saving my life. I, Chunniu, will concentrate on it." Follow you. In other words, if your Liu family is poor, even if you eat bran swallowed vegetables, as long as our family has porridge to drink, you will not be hungry."

Liu Ya nodded, and said: "Then I thank you too, let's work hard in the future, and the days will not be worse."

Liu Ya originally hoped to have a helper.Because she understands that no matter how capable she is, she is still alone, no matter how many business opportunities there are, she can't take care of them with her busy work inside and out.For example, her small water shop has a good business, but at present, it is definitely not enough to rely on the rewards of passers-by. It is estimated that further development will require more manpower.

And Xiao Shu'er can't always be tied there, after this month, Xiao Shu'er should go to school too.Liu Ya still remembered that the special guest Zhang Chengliang told her that the government-run school would take the exam on the tenth day of the next month, and now it will be the end of the month, so Liu Ya still has to inquire about the situation.At that time, it's better to try to put Chun Niu in Xiaoshuipu.

Of course, this is also Liu Ya's plan, as to whether Chun Niu is the material, it has to be considered again.

When Liu Ya was thinking about this matter, Chun Niu opened the purse, poured out the broken silver inside to have a look, then took out two silver coins and stuffed them to Liu Ya, saying: "At least one coin is too much, You take this back."

"It's okay, it's more of a favor from me. I'm not being polite to you. I should help you if you have something at home. In addition to your housewarming, you should also join in. You take it, and you don't have to pay back the money."

After Liu Ya finished speaking, she remembered another thing, and said, "I wanted to go to Lijiatun with you today. But my eldest sister went to the town early in the morning, so I couldn't leave. The last time I went, I met Auntie Li, neighbors say she is good at making clothes, I want to take a few pieces of cloth over there, and let her make new clothes for my father, my elder sister and my younger brother. This time you go and help me with the cloth Bring it on."

Chun Niu laughed when she heard this, and said: "Most of our Lijiatun are surnamed Li, which Aunt Li are you talking about? However, there is really one who does needlework best. She is not young, and her embroidery is also exquisite. I just don’t know if it’s the same person you’re talking about.”

Liu Ya nodded and said: "It should be one. The one I met was also an old woman. She said she took care of her grandson at home, and she also said she could embroider. She has a good face and clean clothes. She looks like a person with quick hands and feet. Why don't you ask her the price when you bring the fabrics, I told her last time that the three sets of clothes cost [-] Wen. If the price is right, then it will be."

Chun Niu nodded and asked Liu Ya, "Okay, I'll remember. I'll go back today. While it's still early, I'll be on my way after dinner, and I'll be back in the afternoon. Have you brought the fabric?"

"No." Liu Ya said: "I'll bring it to you later, you eat first."

Chun Niu said: "No need, I'll go get it after dinner. Then I just go up the mountain from the path over your house."

"That's fine, I'll go back. You can eat, I'll find the fabric and wait for you at home." Liu Ya was about to leave after she finished speaking, but when she reached the door, she remembered something again, turned her head and said to Chun Niu: "Be careful when you go home, especially your brother. I looked at him...with a bad face."

Liu Ya originally planned to go back to Lijiatun with Chunniu, but she was also afraid that her frenzied brother would be ill-intentioned again and leave Chunniu behind and sell her off.Now she can't go, so she has to tell Chun Niu to be careful.

Chunniu thought for a while, but also seemed a little scared.But he said instead: "It's okay, I'll let Siping go back with me. He can't leave us alone. My mother can't help my brother anymore after taking the five taels of silver."

"That's fine. I'm relieved to let Siping stay with you. I'll be back." Liu Ya said before leaving.

Chun Niu thanked her behind her again, and went back to have dinner with Siping.

When Liu Ya returned home, Xiao Shu'er had already fed the kid and the chicken.There are already several chickens missing. I heard Liu Xuer say that someone in the village bought them.He also said that it was cheaper to sell, otherwise a chicken could be sold for ten cents more.If it weren't for their family who only sold roosters, it is estimated that all the hens would be bought by the villagers.

Liu Ya didn't care, anyway, the capital of the chickens had already been earned enough, and now all the chickens were sold for profit.The purpose of raising these hens is to lay eggs, and there are eggs to eat every day.It is enough to keep a rooster, and it can hatch chicks in the future.
