Lu Mu hitched his big buffalo to a cart and followed Meng Ning to a farmer's home.
Meng Li helped her forehead, especially since she always planned to sleep in separate beds with Lu Mu.
But the eyes of the family were all watching.
I just hope that the big bed will be ready later, preferably within a month or two.
Yun Sheng came and brought Meng Li the remaining payment of sixteen taels and four cents, which was a little more than enough. Meng Li was not polite and accepted it.
"Hey, the deposit progress is forty-seven taels, and there are still fifty-three taels before the upgrade. Master, keep up the good work." As soon as her hand touched the money, the housekeeper started to croak.
"As for the cents, I'll add more if you have enough." The butler added.
Mao Qian refers to the four cents following this.
Meng Li ignored the housekeeper, collected the money and said to Yunsheng, "Brother Yunsheng, have you had breakfast?"
"Hey, I just came here after eating. I'll send you the balance. It's time for me to go back."
"Also." Yun Sheng handed a small box in his hand to Meng Li: "This is a little thought from our boss."
Meng Li opened it and found a box of rather exquisite snacks.
She smiled. Boss Liu was afraid that he would make her dissatisfied by leaving her alone last night, so he sent something again today.
What is this called? Give me a candy date to show your face.
If you were an ordinary person, your heart would already be touched.
But the soul in her body is in her thirties, and she doesn't have any mood swings when doing this.
If she meets a better boss who is willing to pay a higher price, she will not hesitate to cooperate with others.
Moreover, Qiushui Pavilion only stipulates that the design she gave it cannot be given to others, so she can come up with other designs.
The creativity in her mind is endless, at least for ten or eight years. In the world she came from, she not only designed modern clothing, but also designed Hanfu. Every batch of designs was very popular. She knew these things very well.
If she were to be tied to only one boss, she would definitely be unwilling to do so.
She believes that other bosses will come to her soon.
Distributing the snacks to everyone, Meng Yao took a bite, the sweet taste lingered on the tip of his tongue and filled his heart, his eyes curled into crescent moons.
I really hope I can have snacks in the future. This is better than the candied haws she is craving for.
However, if you are satisfied after eating it once or twice, that is enough.
Meng Wu was going to the boxing gym today, but everyone forced him to stay for another day to rest.
The carefree and cheerful man had never eaten dim sum before, and he couldn't get used to the delicate feeling for a while, but I have to say that it was really delicious and he finished it in two or three bites.
He said: "Boss Liu from Qiu Shui Pavilion is so kind. Second sister, since your cooperation with Qiu Shui Pavilion has initially stabilized and you are taken care of like this, we will all be good and don't make any mistakes in the future."
Meng Li agreed, of course she was a martial artist.
After a while, Lu Mu's big buffalo came back carrying a cart of lumber.
Boards and various supports are available.
"I've given up all my work for the past two days and just made a big bed for you." Meng Ning said with a smile.
Meng Yao ran over, took a piece of snack and stuffed it into his second brother's mouth.
"What is this?" Meng Ning smelled the fragrance and knew it was food, so he subconsciously took a bite.
"It's the snacks sent by Qiushui Pavilion. The big turkey brother brought half the silver and a box of snacks," Meng Yao said.
Meng Ning glanced at Meng Li and couldn't help but want to give her elder sister a thumbs up.
Meng Li gave the last piece to Lu Mu.
"I don't eat sweets, you do." Lu Mu said.
"That's not okay. Everyone in the family has eaten, but you don't. Those who don't know think you are coming to our house as husband-in-law, and I will treat you harshly." Meng Li deliberately teased him.
A slight smile flashed in Lu Mu's eyes, and he took it and ate it.
When he smiles, there seems to be some warm sunshine between his eyebrows, which is very beautiful.
However, this man was always silent, and Meng Li didn't know his true thoughts.
After installing the last leg on the table, Meng Ning patted the table with his hand to make it steady.
"alright."
Lu Mu carried the table into the kitchen.
Next the three men were working on the bed together in the yard.
Meng Li took a look and saw that there were some basic medicinal herbs in the space, which could be sold for more than twenty taels in total.
She planned to keep one or two plants as backup and sell the rest.
I still hope to earn a hundred taels as soon as possible, because after upgrading, there is no need to spend extra money to use those materials.
After lunch, she said: "Little sister, let's go up the mountain to find some wild vegetables."
"Okay, there are a lot of wild vegetables on the mountain in Kaichun."
Meng Yao had just changed into new clothes when he got up early in the morning. Hearing that he was going up the mountain, he had to run into the house to change into patched clothes.
Meng Li held her back: "Little sister, we have so much money in hand, we can buy whatever clothes we want in the future, just wear them."
"But eldest sister, I can't bear to leave -"
"You have to get used to it."
Meng Li wanted her family to show the changes. Although most people in the village had good intentions, they were always dressed so poorly, and some people looked down on her in their hearts.
"You all have to go up the mountain, sister, your legs and feet are not very convenient," Meng Wudao said.
"It's almost healed. Just walk slower." Meng Li said.
"Maybe we can catch a game or two and come back."
"I don't want game. We have enough firewood at home, and there's no need to fetch firewood. You can just pick up some wild vegetables." Meng Ning didn't want his two sisters to be affected, let alone the danger of them going into the mountains.
"Okay, listen to second brother." Meng Yao made a face at him.
On the way to the mountain, Meng Yao held Meng Li's arm: "Sister, when I went up the mountain before, I always had to find someone to go with me, but sometimes I couldn't find anyone. I was thinking, if your legs and feet are good, we can go together. I went up the mountain."
Meng Li could see some fear on the girl's face. She was afraid that the girl from the nearby hills had been there many times alone and might be ostracized and bullied by her peers.
The eldest brother is in the town and the second brother is in another house, but he can't always control the little sister.
"From now on, eldest sister will accompany you, so you won't be afraid of wherever you go." She said softly.
"Yes." The little girl nodded, feeling aggrieved and wanting to cry.
One time, her friends called her a pauper and pushed her down halfway——
Once they threw her on the top of a hill, and she seemed to hear the sound of wolves. At that time, she thought she was going to die, so she closed her eyes and ran down the hill.
She never told her family about these things.
Now that the eldest sister has woken up and seen how powerful she is, the little girl feels full of security.
There are many villagers on the hilltop looking for wild vegetables. Even if there are a lot of wild vegetables in early spring, they have almost been picked.
Here and there, I found some bracken covered by dead grass, and some shepherd's purse.
However, there is no need to eat wild vegetables at home now, and this is not Meng Li’s purpose.
When she reached a relatively hidden location, she moved the herbs out of the space.
"Look, little sister, these herbs are valuable." Meng Li pointed it out to the little sister.
