The strongest peasant girl in Xiuse Jinyuan

Chapter 191: Neighborhood and Family (4)
Because the food was so good on the first day, if the food on the table tomorrow was not good enough, Wei Changju was afraid that the craftsmen would have objections, so he greeted Lin Jianchun in advance.

As soon as Wei Changqu's words fell, Lin Jianchun took the words and said, "Miss Wei, look at what you said, you have treated us so graciously, this morning's start-of-work meal is even better than those served by some big families. That's good, my brothers all remember your kindness, girl, so how can you be dissatisfied? You don't have to worry about this matter. I will bring these brothers out to do things, as long as I can eat enough for every meal. , Those brothers are rough people, they don’t know how to pick and choose.”

"Well, I'm relieved to hear what Master Lin said."

After chatting with Lin Jianchun, Wei Changjue turned his eyes to Jiang Yungui, and Wang said honestly, "Second Uncle, Uncle Wang, if you two want to follow Master Lin and the others to start work, let's see if it works, and finish the day's work." , I will give you a hundred cash, and after the construction period is over, I will pay you silver."

After the two listened to Wei Changju's words, Wang Laoshi spoke first and said, "Changju, you have helped my uncle's family so much. Your family built a house, and my uncle came to help with this little favor. How can you still charge your wages?" , Anyway, at this time, Uncle’s family has nothing to do, and they are idle, so why not help you? Why are you still raising money, you are separated from Uncle, aren’t you?”

After Wang honestly finished speaking, Jiang Yungui took over the conversation again: "Jie'er, don't blame the second uncle for talking about you, your uncle Wang is right, we are both your elders, why don't we do something for you, and we have to pay for it." Salary, how can it be justified, if your second aunt knows about this, you will have to nag again."

The two insisted on not getting paid, but Wei Changju refused.

She knows the situation of her second uncle's family very clearly. It can be said that there are old people on the top and young children on the bottom. I didn't get anything valuable, and the family only had a few acres of Susukida that didn't produce food, plus an old ox cart, so they were completely poor.

She knew more about the situation of Wang Laoshi's family.

A few days ago, Wang Laoshi sold the only few acres of good land in his family to himself. There was no land and no food, and there was a sick old mother in the house, which was even more miserable than her second uncle's family.

Besides, building a house is not a short-term job. It can be done in two or three days. It will take at least ten or twenty days to build the whole house. Wei Changqu felt sorry for his family's busy schedule.

When Jiang Yungui finished speaking, Wang Laoshi wanted to say something more, but Wei Changqu interrupted him directly.

She said with a serious expression: "Okay, Uncle Wang, Second Uncle, don't say anything more, this matter is settled like this."

Here, Mrs. Feng and Mrs. Yu saw that Wei Changjue seemed to be arguing with their respective men about something, so they all walked out of the room.

Feng Shi looked at Wei Changjue, and said first, "Qi'er, what are you arguing with your second uncle? What matters can't be resolved, let's tell the second aunt."

Before Wei Changqu could open his mouth, Jiang Yungui snatched the words: "Mother, let's help my sister, Quer does some small things, and Quer insists on asking for my wages. Tell me, Quer, isn't he Are you bothering me? How can I accept this salary?"

After Jiang Yungui finished speaking, Wang Laoshi also looked at his wife, and said, "Chunlan, you should hurry up and persuade this girl, Changqu, she is also clamoring to pay me wages, and she will pay me for a day's work. He said that he would pay us a hundred Wen. I am clumsy, but I can do a little help and do some work of moving bricks. The body is getting better, so we should come here to help with this little favor, shouldn't we?"

The two chattered for a while, causing Feng Shi and Yu Shi to stare at Wei Changqu's face.

Feng first blamed and said: "Jie'er, you treat your second uncle and second aunt as an outsider, don't you? How can you ask your second uncle to pay the wages? You have done something wrong."

"Changqu, your second aunt is right. Although your Uncle Wang and I are not relatives of your family, in my aunt's eyes, you kiss like my aunt's niece. During these days, counting back and forth, You have helped my aunt's family a lot, now, your Uncle Wang and I have come to help you with some things, why do you still mention the wages, mentioning money hurts feelings, my aunt is not happy." After finishing speaking, Mrs. Yu really Just put a face on it.

The four of them, one sentence from you, and one sentence from me, simply made Wei Changqu's head quarrel.

Seeing that Lin Jianchun and others were still waiting to start work, Wei Changju had no choice but to put down his attitude and quickly settle the matter.

Staring at Jiang Yungui and the others, Wei Changju rarely showed a serious expression.

She said: "Second Uncle, Second Aunt, Uncle Wang, Aunt Chunlan, if you help me with short-term work, and the work can be completed in two or three days, I will treat you as a helper and I will not pay you wages, but , My family is building a house now. When the house is completed, it will take more than 20 to [-] days. Is it possible that such a long time, you will come to my house to help for nothing, second uncle, cousin Shu Xiu next year , You haven’t saved enough, you have come to help me these days, how do you make money? After a while, it’s getting colder, and it’s even more difficult to make money. How do you plan to pay for my cousin’s repair expenses next year? .”

"And Uncle Wang, didn't you sell all the acres of land in your family to me? Now your family has three mouths to eat, and Grandma Wang has to spend money to see a doctor. There is no land or food. If you Help me do things for nothing, how do you plan to live in the future." Then, Wei Changjue glanced at the two of them, and continued: "So, since you are willing to help me with things, then I will post If you don't want my wages, then don't help me with my work, and you won't use them tomorrow."

"This..." Thinking about the situation in his own family is really difficult, Jiang Yungui was temporarily blocked by Wei Zhangyu, he thought for a while before he said: "But Yuer, if I don't come with your second aunt Help, why are you so busy here?"

"It's too busy. If the second uncle refuses to ask for wages, you and the second aunt don't worry about it. When I'm too busy, I will naturally ask other people to help."

The reason why he said these words was that Wei Changqu deliberately forced them to agree.

After Feng Shi heard this, she felt uncomfortable. She looked at Wei Changqu in embarrassment and said, "Qiao'er, aren't you forcing us?"

"Second Aunt, it's not that I force you, but that it takes too much time to build a house in my house. I can't ask you to come and help for nothing every day. If you are willing to accept the wages, you will continue to come and help tomorrow. If you don't Collect your wages, then tomorrow, you and your second uncle won’t have to come to Shili Village.” After Wei Changqu finished talking to Feng Shi, he looked at Yu Shi and said, “Aunt Chunlan, I said these words to my second aunt, and it’s also As I told you, if Uncle Wang refuses to accept the wages, there is no need to come to help tomorrow."
