Chapter 24 024. The Four Treasures(2/2)
Zhou Zeyun nodded again.
She suddenly remembered something, took out a purse of broken silver from her sleeve, handed it to Zhou Zeyun, and continued: "Here is this for you. You can pay them wages later. Qian Bin gets 30 cash a day, and the others get 20 cash a day, so that's enough."
Help me share the load?" She raised her eyebrows and teased.
"Okay." Zhou Zeyun took it.
"Then I'll leave the building of the house to you. I've told Qian Bin all my requirements. You don't have to worry about the rest. Just keep an eye on it and I won't care about it!" She laughed.
After all, it is Zhou Zeyun's house, and she also has a lot of things to be busy with, which also enhances his sense of accomplishment.
In the past few days, she had always seen Zhou Zeyun with a pensive look on his face, looking a little bored. She thought that he had nothing to do and was idle.
After everything was explained, Zhou Zeyun had nothing to say, so she went to make lunch. From today on, she would make more lunch, after all, there were so many people eating here.
Then she went to the kitchen to buy more than a dozen spoons of rice, and took out four chickens from the space and stewed the chickens. The four boys still came over to help pluck the feathers and light the fire. She poured the chicken soup into the rice soup, which had a meatier and more flavorful taste.
In this way, lunch was settled. Qian Bin and others looked at the large pot of chicken in front of them and were a little afraid to eat it.
They didn't expect Mrs. Gu to be able to provide them with meat. Every household could only eat a little bit of meat during the New Year and festivals. At this time, they were so surprised that they were at a loss.
A few people only dared to hold the rice soup in the bowl and drink it, but the taste in their mouths also tasted like meat. Even the rice was not the bran rice they often eat at home, but polished rice with a soft and glutinous texture. They were even more surprised.
Because there were so many people, Gu Xiaoxiao simply carried the dining table in the east room into the courtyard. Although the dining table was very short, she couldn't help it. The conditions at home were like this. After the house was built, she still had to buy some new furniture.
When she finished her work, she walked out of the kitchen and saw a group of people. You looked at me, I looked at you, but they didn't move their chopsticks.
She raised her eyebrows, "What's wrong, everyone? Eat quickly!"
As the leader, Qian Bin naturally negotiated with Gu Xiaoxiao. When he heard Gu Xiaoxiao's doubtful question, he frowned and said with a troubled expression: "Ms. Gu, is this... our lunch?
Isn't it a bit too grand... everyone doesn't dare to move their chopsticks anymore."
The group of people behind Qian Bin nodded.
Everyone is afraid that the food expenses will be included in their wages. It is not worth it to deduct the twenty coins they originally received just for a satisfying meal!
So you have to ask clearly first.
When Gu Xiaoxiao heard Qian Bin's words, he immediately smiled and said, "What are you afraid of? Everyone, feel free to eat! Your salary was agreed to be twenty cents, and you won't miss a penny. You deserve this meal too."
Yes, how can you have the strength to work if you don’t eat meat! Come on, eat!”
At this time, after everyone listened, they put their lifted hearts back to their original positions and began to eat happily, with their eyes shining.
Mrs. Gu’s cooking skills are also good, and the meat is even more delicious than the meat they had eaten during the Chinese New Year!
Soon the chicken in the basin was cleared away, and Zhou Zeyun and his children who were eating together were also very happy. It was the first time for the children to see such a lively home, and the people in the village were also familiar with the children, and they would eat from time to time.
Tease them.
After the meal, everyone was still unsatisfied. They had not eaten enough in their mouths, but their stomachs could no longer hold it.
So I stretched my muscles and started to continue working. This time I worked particularly vigorously. I admired Mrs. Gu in my heart and completely lost the prejudice I had before coming here.
Gu Xiaoxiao, Dabao, Erbao, and Sanbao cleaned up after the meal, and then she put her basket on her back and planned to set off to the town.
Before leaving, I suddenly thought of Teacher Xu's words. He leaned down and looked at Sanbao and said with a smile: "Sambo, do you want to go to the town with your mother to play?"
