"Yes!" Li Dashan nodded heavily.
Twenty coins a day, six hundred coins a month, and he was only responsible for three meals. This was definitely a high salary in the countryside!
A girl who can make money like this will definitely find good families.
"Mom, just ask my little girl. My uncle is really reluctant to let Uncle Zhu cook."
"Okay." Wang Guihua nodded.
As Li Chuntao's cousin, she watched Li Chuntao grow up. For such a good girl, she couldn't bear Li Chuntao going to extremes.
However, before leaving, she specifically said to Tao Zhu: "As long as you and Li Qiao don't go astray, you can live however you like. After all, we are two families, so I won't annoy others with my talk. "
"You are a good boy. No matter how nice he treats you, you deserve it. Besides, you are also very good to him."
Tao Zhu was stunned when he heard this, and then nodded gently: "I understand, sister-in-law."
Li Qiao couldn't help but give Wang Guihua a thumbs up: "Sister-in-law, if someone can be your daughter-in-law, it will be a blessing that has been cultivated in eight lifetimes."
Wang Guihua rolled her eyes at him: "You'd better go to work quickly. With so many people employed, wages have to be paid every day. I'm anxious for you as I watch."
"Okay, I'm going to steam the Qingtuan dumplings right now, and I'll leave the matter of Chuntao to my sister-in-law."
Wang Guihua hummed and left quickly.
Li Qiao's move was suspected of giving charity. She had to explain it carefully. Li Qiao really didn't mean that. He just felt sorry for his Brother Zhu!
Wang Guihua left, but Tao Zhu's curiosity increased.
He did not go to the kitchen to continue making Shaqima, but went into the shed to make Qingtuan together with Li Qiao. He wanted to find out about Li Chuntao.
"I was busy working every day and had no contact with people in the village. I didn't know much about the rumors about Chuntao. Now that I think about it, I feel that something is wrong."
"What's wrong?"
Li Qiao asked while making green balls.
"Zhou Mingsheng's father and mother spread rumors about Chuntao. Are they getting Zhou Mingsheng involved? In the eyes of outsiders, Zhou Mingsheng has always been in trouble. He is a scholar. Doesn't he want to be famous anymore?"
"It was because he wanted to keep his reputation after being a scumbag that he spread such a rumor."
"Huh?" Tao Zhu was very puzzled.
"Because the whole content of this rumor is that in order to force Zhou Mingsheng to marry her early, Chuntao drugged Zhou Mingsheng and wanted to cook raw rice into cooked rice."
"In this rumor, Zhou Mingsheng becomes an innocent victim, while Chuntao becomes a villain who will do whatever it takes to achieve his goals."
"So, after the incident, Zhou Mingsheng's father and mother were furious and had to terminate the baby marriage."
Tao Zhu: "..."
He was stunned when he heard that. He was stunned for several seconds before he spoke: "The Zhou family is too vicious, aren't they? They are cousins after all."
"What are cousins? Can this relationship make Zhou Mingsheng a popular hot drinker among city residents?"
Li Qiao snorted: "No one is sure whether Zhou Mingsheng can be admitted as a scholar. But as long as he gets married to the shopkeeper's daughter, it will be enough for him to change his life."
"...It's so bad. How could it be so bad?" Tao Zhu still couldn't understand: "Is this what others say, most people who have bad hearts are scholars?"
"We can see from Zhou Mingsheng and Gao Zhiyuan that this sentence does have a little bit of truth." Li Qiao did not forget to bring Gao Zhiyuan with him.
Brother Zhu who has his eye on him definitely has no good intentions!
But Tao Zhu looked at him quietly: "You are also a scholar."
"...I am different from pretty boys like Gao Zhiyuan and Zhou Mingsheng!"
"What's different?"
"They are indolent and only want to take advantage of opportunities, but every penny in our money box was earned by the two of us. Can these two people be able to achieve this kind of relationship that they have worked hard for together?"
Li Qiao spoke righteously and sternly.
"No." Tao Zhu thought seriously and shook his head; "Putting you with them is an insult to you."
"Brother Zhu is wise!" Li Qiao gave a thumbs up, which was comforting to hear.
"Then Chuntao was wronged like this?" Tao Zhu's thoughts turned to Li Chuntao.
"What can be done? She has no way to prove her innocence."
"Then if Chuntao really comes to work at our house, we will give her more wages." Tao Zhu said.
"The key is to get her to change her extreme thoughts."
Outsiders are outsiders after all. If she wants to truly live a good life, she must become strong inside.
Wang Guihua didn't come again until the evening, and Li Gu and Li Chuntao came with her.
As Wang Guihua said, when Li Gu's family first heard her words, they thought Li Qiao was giving Chuntao alms, so they all shook their heads and refused.
After Wang Guihua explained clearly, Li Gu and his family were still hesitant.
Originally, with the passage of time, the discussion about Li Chuntao in the village had gradually subsided.
But if Chuntao goes to work at Li Qiao's house and Chuntao comes into the public eye, then her story will definitely be brought up for discussion by the villagers.
Chuntao didn't want to deal with those strange eyes.
Wang Guihua tried to persuade her, but she became more angry.
Of course, this anger is directed at the Zhou family.
Zhou Mingsheng and his family spread such vicious rumors just to force Chuntao to death. Once Chuntao died, no one would remember their family's shamelessness.
How could Chuntao let such a villain get his wish?
Chuntao should be living a good life, better than Zhou Mingsheng!
Chuntao worked steadily and earned twenty coppers a day. So what if she was criticized?
Anyway, what needs to be clarified has been clarified.
Those who want to believe it will not talk about Chuntao.
If they don't want to believe it, they won't believe it even if Chuntao dies to prove his innocence.
So, why bother with so much?
It is true to get the copper plate and live a prosperous life!
These words made Li Gu's family shaken and they struggled again. Li Gu and Li Chuntao followed Wang Guihua.
When Li Gu saw Li Qiao, he was a little embarrassed. It was a bit embarrassing to seek help from the junior and take advantage of him.
But he quickly said solemnly: "Xiaoqiao, your kindness will be remembered by my whole family forever."
"If you need people in the future, just come to us."
"Second uncle, you are so polite. You have helped me before. Aren't all the family helping each other like this? Don't worry, you and second aunt. Chuntao works here. If anyone dares to speak against her, I will personally Fight back."
Li Qiao assured.
"Then Chuntao will be left to you." Li Gu nodded and said to Li Chuntao: "Why don't you hurry up and thank you, Brother Qiao."
"Thank you, Brother Qiao." Li Chuntao was very obedient and thanked him immediately, but his voice was a little low.
She was also a little embarrassed.
She used to hate this cousin and never treated him well every time she met him, but now only this cousin can help her...
"There's nothing to be thankful for. It's not like you don't want to work. Come over tomorrow at a quarter past nine and start work officially."
Li Qiao said with a smile.
"Okay." Li Chuntao agreed.
So the matter was settled.
After Li Chun Tao Li Gu left, Li Qiao and Li Dashan built two more simple stoves next to the vegetable garden.
Now that there is someone dedicated to cooking, he must build a kitchen specifically for cooking, so that he and Tao Zhu can make more snacks.
In the past, I had to move the oil in the pot, dough on the chopping board and other things every time I cooked, which was very troublesome. I don’t have to do that anymore in the future.
The next day, Li Chuntao came earlier than Li Dashan. She worked quickly and had breakfast ready in a short time.
Braised eggplant, cold cucumber, green onion pancake, white porridge.
Although they are all home-cooked dishes, they taste very good.
Li Qiao, Tao Zhu, and Li Dashan were all satisfied with their meals.
Li Chuntao, who was a little nervous at first, quietly breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that the breakfast was swept away.
Li Chuntao made breakfast and left. Her family hadn't finished harvesting the wheat yet, so she was very busy.
As soon as Li Chuntao left, Xiao Wu came over.
Yesterday I told Xiao Wu about the Qing Tuan, but after finishing the Qing Tuan he made for the first time, Xiao Wu couldn't see the real thing, let alone take it back to Shopkeeper Wang.
But shopkeeper Wang trusts Li Qiao now, so he gave Xiao Wu money in advance and asked Xiao Wu to buy fifty first. If he couldn't sell them, he would keep them for his family.
The Youth League sold to Shopkeeper Wang costs eighteen cents each, and fifty cents is nine hundred cents.
After Xiao Wu left, Li Ping came not long after. She came to buy Qingtuan. Now Qingtuan has become her favorite, and Shaqima and Dama spent their time in the back row.
"Sister-in-law, I remember that you raise a lot of chickens. I want to buy a hen."
Li Qiao said.
I hired a new employee, who is also my cousin, so let’s celebrate with a nice meal.
So, at noon that day, the strong spicy smell wafted in the yard again.
This time it was much richer than the last time Tao Zhu made the chicken, because Tao Zhu made it in the kitchen and Li Chuntao made it in the yard.
Zhang Xiuhua came to sell eggs and saw Li Chuntao cooking. He couldn't help but be surprised: "Da Shan, why is your sister-in-law cooking?"
