The long journey all the way was already exhausting.
Fang Zheng fell asleep quickly as soon as he lay down on the familiar lounge chair in the backyard.
I don’t know how long it took before I was shaken awake.
When he opened his eyes, he saw Xiao Tao looking at him with a happy face, and said happily: "Master, why didn't you send someone to tell me in advance when you came back?"
Fang Zheng rubbed his sleepy eyes and looked around.
He lowered his face and said, "Oh, we don't dare to disturb your milk bath."
Xiao Tao smiled when she heard Fang Zheng teasing her.
"I suffer hardships outside, but you live a more comfortable life than me in the county!"
As he spoke, he glanced at Bai Yi, who looked like a quail next to him.
She was originally white, but I don't know if it was because of the milk bath that she was almost glowing.
It was just that the whole person was timid, hiding aside and not daring to speak.
When Fang Zheng saw her like this, he sneered: "What are you hiding from? Bath money will be deducted from your salary!"
"Return to the milk bath! I haven't been as white as you since I've been dead for three days!"
Bai Yi's face suddenly fell.
It wasn't until Fang Zheng came back that she started to feel a little uneasy.
After working as a maid for a long time, Fang Zhengyi always had an inexplicable feeling.
I'm a little scared...I also have low self-esteem. Even after adjusting my mentality several times, I still can't get it back.
I was afraid that I would be scolded and my salary would be deducted. As expected... I was scolded again this time.
Xiao Tao glanced at her and quickly smoothed things over: "No, no, I invited her."
"Xiao Bai, please go out first. I'll have a word with the young master."
Bai Yi was granted amnesty and hurriedly escaped from the hospital.
Seeing that the person was gone, Fang Zheng stretched out and said, "Give me a shoulder massage."
"Is there anything going on at home during my absence?"
"Is there anything strange about Xiaobai?"
Xiao Tao knelt down and pinched Fang Zheng's shoulders, and said in confusion, "No, Xiao Bai usually stays with me, shopping and shopping."
"But she has no money, so I bought everything for her?"
Fang Zheng stood up and looked at Xiao Tao sideways: "No, you are the maid and she is the maid?"
"Xiao Bai, I always feel like she's a little weird!"
Xiao Tao pressed Fang Zheng back again and continued, "It's a bit weird."
"I always like to go to a cloth shop called Qian Sheng when I'm in the capital. I've been to that shop before and there's nothing wrong with it."
"I found someone to follow her. Every time Xiaobai came out of there, she was completely lost."
"I guess... I want to buy new clothes, but I don't have any money."
"Master, the money you gave me is too little."
Less? She is given three taels of silver every month, and she is not from Taoyuan.
Fang Zhengyi felt that he was generous enough, and the group of reporters under him only paid one tael of silver a month.
A maid of unknown origin earns three taels a month.
Normally, I just cook, and there is no need to clean the house, other maids are responsible for it.
Even if Xiaobai is good at viewing, it is not as good as Yin!
"How can a maid pay twenty taels for a bath? You can't find this kind of treatment in the whole capital."
Xiao Tao rolled her eyes: "Then I'll wash it too, or I'll give you the money."
"Ha! You were by my side when you were so young, and I have raised you to such an old age. Can Xiaobai do the same?"
As he spoke, Fang Zhengyi gestured with his hand to indicate the height.
When I first picked up Xiaotao, it was only at the height of my waist.
Malnourished, a skinny little slug, dragging itself all day long, no different from my own sister.
In a blink of an eye, she grew up to be a big girl.
"I'm too lazy to care. Who doesn't have some secrets yet? It's up to you, your maid, to take care of it."
"This time, young master, I will get another batch of silver from outside. You can go to the treasury to count the money again and make good accounts."
"Also, you have become more and more spendthrift during my absence! From now on, you are not allowed to spend more than five hundred taels a month."
Hearing this, Xiao Tao muttered: "I applied for a discount card for milk baths, and it's only five hundred taels for thirty times..."
"Why! Five hundred taels is too little!"
Xiaotao put more force on her hands and continued to mutter: "I am the one who made the monkey wine in the county. I earned 40,000 taels for the county! Why spend a few hundred taels to take a bath?"
It turns out it was you, this girl.
Fang Zhengyi felt a little embarrassed, coughed twice, and said with a straight face: "It's shameful to cheat and kidnap! What we do in the county is serious business, let there be no next time!"
"From now on, I only have five hundred taels of pocket money a month. I won't get a penny more. I want to spend it on my own!"
"mean!"
Fang Zheng was very happy: "Am I stingy? Why don't you go out and ask around, young master, I am grateful and praise me for my generosity?"
"I brought you some good things when I came back this time."
"what?"
Xiao Tao's eyes lit up and her hand movements stopped.
Fang Zheng pointed casually and threw a baggage on the bench in the backyard corridor.
Xiao Tao quickly walked over, took the baggage, opened it, and said in surprise: "Ah! So many jewelry?"
“Pick a few things you like and take them away!”
Xiao Tao looked inside for a while and said disappointedly: "Hey~, why not sell it for money."
"Although many of the jewelry here are quite valuable, they are not as beautiful as the glass jewelry in the county!"
"Forget it, I can pick two pieces for Xiaobai."
Fang Zheng narrowed his eyes and looked at Xiao Tao: "I said... don't let Xiao Bai fool you."
"That's not possible. Xiaobai looks silly and is always alone in a daze. I guess she misses her parents."
"Don't worry, I will keep an eye on her. It's not even two years yet. If there are any problems, I will tell you."
"Yeah, that's fine."
Fang Zheng crossed his arms and looked at the sky in confusion.
Thinking back to before I traveled through time.
After so many years, I wonder if artificial intelligence has taken over the earth, have earthlings landed on Mars, and has controllable nuclear fusion research been successful?
I don’t know if my parents have received compensation for being exhausted at work...
...........
Time flies to night.
In the backyard of the county government office, Li Yuanzhao, Zhang Biao and others gathered in the yard.
The moon was sparse and reflected in spots in the lotus pond in the backyard. You could vaguely see koi carps swimming in the water through the lotus leaves.
From time to time there could be heard the chirping of insects among the flowers and grass, and a few small bonfires were lit on the ground for lighting.
There is a constant crackling sound as the firewood burns, and the atmosphere is peaceful.
Several people gathered around a large table, which was lit with many candles and filled with all kinds of food and wine.
In the middle is a roasted, crispy pig, neatly cut, and rich gravy can be seen between the cuts.
Everyone looked at the roasted pig with greedy eyes, except Xiao Tao and Bai Yi.
A pig that drank bathwater? Forget it, I really have no appetite!
Fang Zhengyi was quite greedy.
In my previous life, I had heard of cows drinking beer and listening to music, but I had never eaten one.
Can you try being a pig that drinks milk and listens to music today?
Seeing everyone's expectant expressions, Fang Zhengyi couldn't help but smile.
"You're welcome! If you don't get drunk tonight, let's get started!"
.......
My digestive tract is bleeding. I heard today that Brother Feng has retired. It was a physical and psychological double blow.
During this period of time to nourish your stomach, updates may not be so timely, but they will not be interrupted, so please rest assured!
