"They are all from relatives. It's normal for their facial features to be slightly similar. And how old is the eldest sister? How can you tell." I don't know who is talking nonsense. This kind of thing is nonsense. Brother Rong was very depressed, even though it cost him a lot of words.
Although he was temporarily persuaded, Brother Rong also paid a heavy price.
Until noon the next day, Uncle Rong couldn't get up.
A thin maid with delicate features but a small round face entered the main room holding a porcelain jar. She carefully squeezed open the soft curtain in the inner room and placed the porcelain jar on the bedside table. The girl looked at the sleeping Uncle Rong with a faint smile on her face.
My uncle is so handsome! He is kind to others and not at all like the evil master they say. The more carefully I look at it, the happier I am, and I occasionally giggle twice.
The little girl suddenly thought of something, her immature face turned red, she pouted her little mouth and slowly leaned down.
But it happened to stop in mid-air.
Oops, no! If you let grandma know, you will be kicked out of the house. Thinking of this, he quickly straightened up his waist, glanced around with a guilty conscience, and continued to giggle when no one saw him.
Not long after, Brother Rong woke up in a hazy state, saw the figure beside the bed, and asked, "Why are you here?"
Que'er reacted immediately after hearing this and smiled happily. He picked up the porcelain jar from the cabinet and said, "The uncle is finally awake! This is the soup that Que'er made with his own hands to replenish the uncle's health. Not only does it taste good, but it can also replenish energy immediately after drinking it."
Uncle Rong's face darkened after hearing this. Who the hell needs to replenish his body? It’s just that he went to bed too late last night and didn’t have the energy to get up early.
"Uncle, drink it now. My wife heard that the uncle didn't get up in the morning, so she grabbed grandma and gave her a lesson." Que'er brought the porcelain jar in front of Uncle Rong, pouted her little mouth, and said, "Uncle, you have to take care of yourself. It's not okay to do it several times a night. If it weren't for the good relationship between grandpa, grandma and Que'er, Que'er wouldn't make soup for him. He needs to finish the soup, he's been cooking for two hours since he got up early in the morning."
Is this little girl going to have her hair done in this movie? Brother Rong yawned and glared at Xiao Queer, and said, "Put it down."
"That's not possible. You'd better drink the soup first." Xiao Queer pouted and said, "The uncle is young now and can't be empty early. There will be many people in our room in the future, and each of them needs to be taken care of by the uncle. "
"What kind of people?" Jia Rong's mind didn't turn around for a while.
The little girl opened her innocent eyes and said innocently: "There is a grandma in the room, a Que'er, a sister Ruizhu, a sister Baozhu, and the second mistress Xifu Lian. There are five here! I don't know if anyone from outside has come in. .”
"What nonsense! What about Que'er, Ruizhu, and what are you doing with Second Mistress Lian?" Brother Rong gave the little girl a hard look. Looking at Que'er's reluctance, he had no choice but to agree. Said: "You put this soup on the cabinet, I will get up to eat."
Xiao Que'er just showed a satisfied smile and said: "I watched the uncle finish eating."
Brother Rong never thought that he could meet such a 'superior' maid, so fearless that she even dared to threaten her master. Call her stupid, sometimes she is very smart; call her not stupid, sometimes she is very ignorant. Didn't you know that the master can determine the fate of a little maid with just a casual word?
Jia Rong asked Que'er to get a coat and put it on, then she drank the soup from the porcelain jar. He really underestimated this little girl. A little girl of twelve or thirteen years old actually had good cooking skills.
"Is it delicious?" Que'er raised her little face and said arrogantly: "If the uncle still wants to eat it in the future, Que'er will get up early in the morning every day to make soup for the uncle."
Brother Rong said calmly: "Let's talk about it... hiccup... uh... hiccup..."
Seeing the uncle hiccupping, Xiao Que'er hurriedly stretched out her little hand to rub the Tanzhong point on Brother Rong's chest. Uncle Rong was a little strange when he saw Que'er's behavior, but he just saw her being so serious and didn't stop him. After just rubbing it for a while, the little girl cured him.
Que'er said: "Master, are you feeling well now?"
Uncle Rong took a deep breath. He felt much better than before, and his whole body was still warm. Although it is not as exaggerated as if he is full of strength, he does have a lot of energy.
"What kind of soup is this?"
"Unnamed Soup! It was taught by Que'er's teacher... my aunt." Que'er was happy to see her uncle. He said: "Master, if you drink the soup, it will be more beneficial to move around more."
Uncle Rong nodded perfunctorily and asked, "What is grandma doing now?"
"Early in the morning, I heard that a village head from Heishan or Heishui came to deliver the rent. Manager Lai collected it on his behalf. When Que'er came back, my wife and grandma went to check the entrance and exit of the house's internal treasury. They also said that they would pay for it later. We are planning a gift list for the Chinese New Year, do you want to come over?"
Uncle Rong asked: "Have you ever heard from the Lai Sheng family about how much money the village head of Heishan Village sent over this year?"
"I only heard about five thousand taels, but I didn't hear the specific amount clearly. Que'er was thinking about what was cooking in the kitchen, so she didn't pay attention to it. She just accompanied her grandma to ask Mrs. Ann, and then she would be fine The kitchen will bring soup to the uncle."
Since the rent in Heishan Village has been delivered and collected, there is no need for Brother Rong to go there. It is estimated that they are already planning the favors and gifts from various governments during the New Year.
At this time, I heard another message from the maid outside. Second Master Qiang had returned to the house and was now in the front hall.
Brother Rong washed up and changed his clothes.
"It's hard work for you to come here in the snow."
"It's not hard to work for Brother Rong." Jia Qiang has also grown significantly this year. Although there is still some childishness on his face, his whole body temperament has changed a lot, and even the original feminine charm has become much weaker.
It seems that Jia Qiang has been with a group of big men for a long time and has been affected to some extent.
Brother Rong asked about the situation at the kiln again.
Jia Qiang said: "Several tile-roofed houses have been built on the kiln, and all the millstones have been moved into the houses. Even on such a cold winter day, it doesn't feel cold inside. But the weather has been too cold recently, and the New Year is approaching, so Many short-term workers are unwilling to come. So Brother Yun and I measured and paid five copper coins to the workers every day, and Brother Rong still had to make a decision on this matter."
I don't know why, Brother Rong's body has undergone some strange changes now. An inexplicable warmth spreads in the internal organs, reaching up to the heart and down to the lower abdomen, vaguely like a dragon raising its head.
What this maid is doing is too much to make up for. Brother Rong quietly pressed down with his arms.
"When the weather is bad, the enthusiasm of day-to-day workers is definitely not high. You are very smart to come up with this idea. Otherwise, all long-term workers will be given an extra month's wages at the end of each year. The day-to-day workers will still be calculated according to your calculations. For the first thirty days, as long as you come here, you will be given an extra five cents a day. In the spring of next year, we will build some more houses on the village to accommodate the craftsmen. Not only are the workers in our kiln better than those outside, but the long-term and short-term workers in the kiln are also better. There must be a difference, so that part-time workers can think of doing long-term work.”
The two talked about cement production and inventory again. Because Brother Rong was feeling a little unwell, Jia Rong returned to the courtyard soon and asked Lai Sheng to hand over the prepared things to Brother Qiang to take back. There are strange fruits, pastries, and large foreign silk jackets for Jia Yun and Jia Qiang.
