Chapter 176 Monthly Cases
At the moment, Fang Dongqiao said with a slight smile: "My lady just arrived in the capital, and some unpleasant things happened a few days ago. She was busy copying the women's ring, and she was confined in the bamboo lotus courtyard. I almost forgot that my lady came to live in this courtyard." There are two guards here. It's good if you are here now, Miss Ben just has something to tell you two."

Speaking of this, Fang Dongqiao glanced at Qingluo beside her.

"Qingluo, go to Miss Ben's box and get 20 taels of silver."

"Yes, ma'am."

Qingluo responded and went to Fang Dongqiao's dressing table and took out a wooden box for silver ingots, took out two ingots of silver ingots of twelve ingots, and put them on the small coffee table next to Fang Dongqiao.

Fang Dongqiao looked at the two ingots of silver on the small coffee table, and said to A Niu and Rong An with a smile: "I've troubled you two to guard this lady's bamboo lotus courtyard every day. Due to my negligence, the two The list of positions has not been reported to Madam, so naturally there is no way to get your monthly bills, but it makes you feel wronged."

"These 20 taels of silver will be given to each of the two guards as compensation for this lady's negligence. Tomorrow, this lady will ask Qingluo to send the list of the two of you to the madam and the accountant. Then next month you Just like everyone else, I will be able to receive the monthly payment on time."

When Qing Luo heard what Fang Dongqiao said, she divided up the 20 taels of silver and gave ten taels of silver to A Niu's guard and Rong An's guard.

"Miss, this is too much." A Niu's guard received the ingot of ten taels of silver, and said bluntly.

"Not much. Compared to wronging the two of you, this amount of money is really nothing. I know that the two of you can get your salary to eat, but it is because of this lady that you two have been wronged." Well, my lady has no way to compensate you in other aspects, and I can only do my little bit in this regard. I hope you two don't mind, just accept it at ease, lest this lady has been in trouble because of the two of you. Uneasy."

As soon as Fang Dongqiao's words came out, the guards of Rong'an had already pulled A Niu to thank Fang Dongqiao, and stopped the guards from talking. After thanking Fang Dongqiao, they directly dragged the guards of A Niu out of the courtyard.

"Uncle An, even if we live on our salary, we used to only have ten taels of silver a month, and we had to be deducted layer by layer. In fact, when it came to us, it was only three or four taels of silver a month. What's more, now we are The nursing home, the leader of the nursing home is only five taels of silver a month, the lady gave us so much at once, the lady will definitely call the lady. We can't let the lady be scolded by the lady. I will Go and return the money to Miss, A Niu only needs three taels."

As the guard A Niu said, he was about to rush back to the Zhuhe Courtyard, but was kicked by Rong An.

"You rush back so rashly, you want to ruin the reputation of the lady. Besides, the lady has said that. If you and I don't accept it, with the kindness of the lady, I will definitely feel restless and feel guilty because of our affairs. Yes, do you want Miss to feel uneasy about our affairs? Since she wants to make up for us in terms of money, so that she can feel better herself, why do you have to make Miss feel uncomfortable?" Rong An said like this Said, Ah Niu was silent.

"That's a little too much."

Ah Niu still couldn't accept it with peace of mind, not to mention that it was not about Miss Fang's business at all, it was their own bad luck that they ran into the hands of the loyal prince and son, can you blame Miss Fang for this?

Seeing Ah Niu like this, Rong An sighed.

"Silly boy, it's rare to meet such a kind lady. We will try our best to protect her in the future. It's just that the money can't be returned. First, it's embarrassing for the young lady, and second, your mother is in a hurry to get the money. , can’t delay, how can you think too much silver taels? A Niu, let’s go back and get medicine for your mother. We’re here this time to beg the lady to show mercy and send some silver taels to your mother for medicine. , At this moment, the lady took the initiative to bring up the matter of wages, which just solved your urgent need, so you should stop being so stubborn, after all, your mother's life is the most important thing."

A Niu was silent when he heard what Rong An said, and even though Rong An pulled him away, Fang Dongqiao heard the conversation between the two outside the yard clearly in the room.

"Qingluo, hurry up tomorrow, you go and find out what's wrong with that guard named A Niu's mother?" Fang Dongqiao instructed Qingluo lightly.

Qing Luo was taken aback for a moment, how did this young lady know that A Niu's guard's mother was ill?
However, there is a reason for the master to say so, and Qingluo immediately complied.

"Yes, miss, Qing Luo will ask Uncle An tomorrow."

"En." Fang Dongqiao responded lightly, and kapok came in through the curtain outside the door.

"Miss Hui, the flower pots you asked for have already been brought over by the servants. There are fifty flower pots in total, miss, but is it enough?"

"It should be enough for the time being. When the flowers are cultivated, we have to prevent them from coming and snatching them. It's better to prepare more."

Fang Dongqiao took Qingluo and kapok to the outside of the yard, where fifty large and small flower pots were lined up all over the ground.

Looking at the elegant and generous colors of those porcelain pots, Fang Dongqiao smiled in his eyes and nodded with satisfaction.

"The color of the kapok flower pot is well chosen, and this lady is very satisfied. How about this, how much money is left to buy the flower pot?"

"Miss Hui, there are still five hundred cash." Mu Mian replied.

"Well, the craftsman you're looking for and the matter of choosing flower pots, both of which will be rewarded, and the remaining five hundred coins will be rewarded to you." Fang Dongqiao laughed.

"Miss Xie for the reward." In the bamboo lotus courtyard, the lady said that the reward must be accepted.

"As for Qingluo, Mujin, and Mulian, when everyone is present, I will also reward you."

Rewards and punishments are clearly the most basic rules set by a master, Fang Dongqiao smiled, giving benefits while being kind, so you don't have to worry about your servants being unfaithful to you.

At dusk when Mu Jin came back from Mrs. Yun's, Fang Dongqiao immediately called Mu Jin, Qing Luo, and Mu Lian to him after dinner, and asked Nanny Yu to reward them with [-] kuai each. Showed to reward them for their performance over the past few days.

As for Nanny Yu, Fang Dongqiao gave Nanny Yu a two-and-a-half red gold bracelet after all the maids around her had left.

"Mommy, during these days, everyone in the Bamboo Lotus Yard is lucky to have Mammy help me take care of everything. This bracelet will be exchanged for some money for tea and drinks for Mammy. Mammy is so busy running in and out. I'm busy inside and out."

Seeing that the bracelet weighs three or two, Mammy Yu felt that it was too expensive, so she declined: "Miss, this item is too expensive, and this slave is doing what it is supposed to do. Miss is satisfied with slave, and slave is already I'm very satisfied, I don't dare to expect Miss reward any more."

"Grandma, take it. All the maids in the Bamboo Lotus Yard have been rewarded by me for their good job. Could it be that Mammy dislikes how little my rewards are?" Fang Dongqiao looked at Mammy Yu with a smile on her face. ma.

When Nanny Yu heard what Fang Dongqiao said, she didn't dare to refuse anymore.

"How dare the servants dislike the reward from the young lady, the servants just accept it."

Nanny Yu took Fang Dongqiao's red gold bracelet and put it on her wrist.

Seeing Fang Dongqiao, Fang smiled sweetly.

"It's so good. It's getting late at the moment, and there's nothing else going on here for this lady, and the nanny can go to rest early, and she'll have to get up early tomorrow to be busy."

"Yes, the maidservant will leave now, Miss, please rest well."

Nanny Yu retreated from the room respectfully, Fang Dongqiao immediately called Qingluo and Mujin to come in.

"Qingluo, Mujin, Miss Ben is very tired today, and I think she will sleep deeply all night. Don't let anyone come in to disturb Miss Ben. I will call you when Miss Ben wakes up early tomorrow." Fang Dongqiao carefully instructed with.

That Qingluo, Muge was a little confused when he heard it, but he still nodded and followed Fang Dongqiao's wishes and went out.

Fang Dongqiao saw that Qingluo and Mujin were guarding outside, so no one would come in to disturb her, but for safety's sake, she got on the couch and put down the bright blue brocade curtains on both sides, stuffing them tightly. It is so tight that people can't really see the scene in the tent.

In this way, Fang Dong and Qiao Fang dared to sneak into the space of the medicine field.

At this time, in the medicine field space, the fruits, vegetables, food and medicinal materials planted yesterday can all be harvested. Fang Dongqiao harvested once as usual, and then went to the top of the hill to look at the fruit trees, and found that there were various fruits on the branches. Apples, longans, lychees, pears, cherries, strawberries, loquats, etc. were all ready to be harvested, so with a thought, I swept all these fruits into the fruit warehouse and placed them properly.

The watermelons on the sand are green and big one by one, and fingers are tapped on them lightly, making a delightful thumping sound.

Fang Dongqiao beat a watermelon, cut a piece, bit into his mouth, and ate it with crooked eyebrows.

This watermelon is really delicious, full of moisture, not to mention sweet, it feels refreshing after eating it, even more refreshing than eating ice cream in the previous life.

It seems that when the hot summer comes, the watermelon in this space will be enough to quench the family’s thirst. At that time, it will be even more beautiful to make some jelly paste, which is much better than those cold ice cream smoothies. Those cold things are eaten Too much is always hurting the stomach, how can it compare to the natural summer heat produced in this space.

After Fang Dongqiao finished one piece of watermelon, he continued to eat the second piece. After eating less than half of the watermelon, he felt that his stomach could not hold it anymore and let go of his hand.

"Such a delicious and fresh watermelon, after the month of confinement is over, I have to bring out a few big watermelons for my family to taste."

Fang Dongqiao harvested a bunch of big watermelons on the ground, looked at the big watermelons lined up on the warehouse floor, and muttered to himself with a smile.

After harvesting the watermelon fields, Fang Dongqiao saw the flowers on the ground in front of the rows of houses, and his smile became more and more gratifying.

Outside this season, you can see bergamot, lilac, clivia, spring azalea, lotus, Cymbidium, cineraria, and cattail flowers. Maybe you can't see them in such a neat way.
