Ji Qingyao directly took out five taels of silver and placed it in front of Pei Ningyuan: "Uncle, could you please help your niece make this trip? My niece doesn't have a decent home yet, so I won't say much thanks. This is my niece's filial piety to my uncle." Yes, I hope my uncle will not be too little. After buying the land, I still need my uncle and aunt to help me with things like building a house."
When Pei Ningyuan came home, he already knew that Ji Qingyao had left a lot of meat for his family. It turned out that he was not going to accept the money. Five taels of silver was not much in the eyes of the powerful. Their family had a large population, so it would be a waste to save five taels of silver. It was enough for several months. He also knew that if Ji Qingyao wanted to establish a foothold in Xiaoxi Village, he would need the help of his family. She was a thoughtful woman.
After hearing Ji Qingyao's words, Pei Ningyuan accepted her wishes generously.
Afterwards, several people also discussed the matter of the house. Since Ji Qingyao had no place to live now, the food was arranged at the village chief's house. The manpower to cook was ready, and Jiang and several daughters-in-law could help. Ji Qingyao said The cooks were paid twenty-five cents per day, and the firewood was calculated separately, and the ingredients were provided by her. The workers who built the houses were paid twenty-five cents per day according to the wages of the workers in the town, and they were responsible for one meal.
The village chief is responsible for finding people to build the house, and the village chief serves as the supervisor. Ji Qingyao also gives him twenty-five cents a day. Jiang originally wanted to say that there is no salary, but Ji Qingyao said that if the relationship is long-term, it is best for the brothers to settle the accounts. Well, besides, this was a big help to her, and she would still have to pay for it if she went to someone else.
It's like letting outsiders make money instead of making it for your own family. When Ms. Jiang heard Ji Qingyao talking about her family, she beamed with joy and was on top of things all the way, as if Ji Qingyao originally belonged to her family.
In her heart, Mrs. Jiang really regarded Ji Qingyao as her daughter. She decided to talk to her husband about accepting Ji Qingyao as her daughter. She did not expect Ji Qingyao to have the hunting ability, and she wanted to treat this poor girl from the bottom of her heart. Good kid, if a group of relatives at home are not human beings, why force a good little girl to start her own business?
Pei Ningyuan said that building a house depends on the day. Ji Qingyao will directly leave it to him. It is easy to find people to build houses. Pei Ningyuan's third and fourth sons are helping people build houses in the town. They will talk to them when the children come back in the evening. Then just ask their master to help build it.
After the matter of building a house was agreed upon, Ji Qingyao looked at the sky and decided that it was time to go to Li Zheng's house before going to town tomorrow.
She had to go back and draw the drawings. Fortunately, painting was a compulsory course in later generations. Otherwise, she would not be able to draw it with her handicapped skills. She would not be able to make clothes for a woman in this time and space. She wanted to be too lazy to learn. Simple There is no problem with the sewing, but if you want to embroider it beautifully, you can only think about it in your dreams.
When Ji Qingyao left the village chief's house, the wild boar meat was almost sold out. Looking at the more than four taels of silver in her hand, Ji Qingyao thanked Mrs. Jiang and several of her daughters-in-law.
The village chief's fourth daughter-in-law looked at Ji Qingyao's leaving figure and said with some dissatisfaction to Mrs. Jiang: "Mom, look at how she is like this. We help her kill pigs and sell pigs, and she doesn't say anything. Pay for your hard work”
When Mrs. Jiang heard this, she glared at Mrs. Wang fiercely and said, "You short-sighted thing, the meat you ate this morning was not given by Qingyao. There are nearly twenty kilograms of meat in the kitchen. How could you give it to me?" It's over a penny. The pastry you ate last night was also brought by Qingyao girl. It was a pastry from a famous dessert shop in the town. A box cost several hundred pennies. I saw that you ate a lot last night. Those rabbit meats and chickens were not sent by others.
We helped out today, but the meat they sent could be sold for six to seven hundred cash in the town. Why do you think that meat is worthless?
Take a step back and say that you didn't help much today. Your elder sister-in-law and second sister-in-law didn't say anything, but you are becoming dissatisfied here.
Fourth daughter-in-law, I know what you are thinking. You want to take a piece of meat home to honor your mother. I have no objection. Everyone is raised by their parents, but look at what you have done earlier is human affairs. You can kill it with one knife. Cut the whole piece of meat in half so that I wouldn't see it. The meat will be on your mother's dinner table now.
I will leave my words here today. The current situation is not good, and I have the final say on how to distribute the good things at home. If you are dissatisfied with my distribution, you can go wherever you want. I, the Pei family, will not turn a blind eye. Wolf. "
After saying this, Mrs. Jiang glanced at the several daughters-in-law, and then said: "You are all wives now. I just said that I have no objection to you wanting to send something to your husband's family, but the prerequisites must not be affected. In today's small family, your husband and children are the ones who will live with you for the rest of your life, and they are the only ones who can support you.
