Chapter 38 Zhao Erniu makes trouble in this world
"My brother-in-law and Uncle Zhu were too busy to cook, so they hired my sister-in-law to cook."
Li Dashan replied while weighing the eggs.
To put it bluntly, Li Qiao hired someone because he couldn't bear to cook with Tao Zhu. This was too much hatred for Tao Zhu, so Li Qiao gave a very official reason.
"Oh, I hired your sister-in-law, so I have to give your sister-in-law wages." Zhang Xiuhua was surprised.
"Well, twenty cents a day, only responsible for three meals a day."
Li Dashan said, "Auntie, these eggs weigh a total of six and a half kilograms."
"Well, that's the number."
Zhang Xiuhua had already weighed the eggs before arriving.
but!
Her focus right now isn't on the eggs.
She couldn't help but exclaimed: "You only cook three meals and give me 20 cents?!"
"Yes, my brother-in-law has always been generous, and he is even more generous to his own people."
Li Dashan said and took out the copper plate from the money box. One pound of eggs is ten cents, and six and a half pounds is sixty-five cents.
He started counting coins.
Zhang Xiuhua looked at Li Chuntao with eyes full of envy.
Darling, you can earn twenty cents just by cooking three meals a day. Such a good thing can happen in the world!
I originally thought that Wang Xiuying's job was pie in the sky, but now looking at Li Chuntao, Wang Xiuying's pie is not attractive at all.
Li Chuntao's big meat pie falling from the sky is so attractive!
She couldn't help but calculate in her mind. Among the families who lent money to Li Qiao, Li Liang's family got the most in return, and the first person Li Qiao hired was Li Dashan.
Now it's Li Chuntao's turn.
Li Gu lent Li Qiao five taels of silver, ranking second, so Li Qiao hired Li Chuntao, which was in line with Wang Guihua's logic.
Next, when Li Qiao hires someone, he should be the one who chooses the banker. The village chief also lent Li Qiao five taels of silver.
But the village chief's family is not short of money, so he will definitely not come to work.
Skip the dealer, that's Butcher Zheng.
Butcher Zheng's family is also wealthy, and people from the Zheng family may not necessarily come to work.
Therefore, the next time Li Qiao hires someone, he should choose someone from the Zhao Mancang family.
Or choose Li Dazhong.
Emma, after all this calculation, the only benefactors and relatives of Li Qiao standing in front of the villagers are Zhao Mancang and Li Dazhong.
In just a few days, Li Qiao has already hired three people. According to Li Qiao's hiring speed, it won't be long before it's the villagers' turn!
"Auntie, these are sixty-five copper coins. Count them."
At this time, Li Dashan handed the number of copper plates to Zhang Xiuhua.
Zhang Xiuhua took it, counted it, and after confirming that it was correct, he stared at Li Dashan with fiery eyes and said: "Da Shan, if your brother-in-law recruits more people, he must think of his aunt. My aunt will not lose to anyone in her work. "
"Don't worry, aunt, I will remind my uncle!"
Li Dashan patted his chest and responded.
They are all from the same village, and they really know everything.
Zhang Xiuhua was satisfied and left with the coins in the empty basket.
Li Qiao quickly made a fortune and hired more people. She worked hard and never offended Li Qiao. If Li Qiao chose people from the village, she would definitely be chosen.
As soon as Zhang Xiuhua left, someone else came over carrying dry firewood.
It was none other than Zhao Erniu.
Although she failed to get the prescription from Li Qiao, Li Qiao didn't say that she wouldn't accept her things. It happened that she went up the mountain to collect firewood today, so she came to Li Qiao's house to sell part of it.
The strong spicy smell wafted from the door of Li Qiao's house, stimulating her hungry stomach. She sniffed, rolled her eyes, and saw Li Chuntao cooking next to the vegetable garden.
"Why is Chuntao here?" she asked in surprise.
Li Dashan first called the third grandmother, and then gave the official reason.
When Zhao Erniu heard this, she couldn't help but patted the table in front of Li Dashan: "Why don't you come to me when you are looking for someone to cook? I have been cooking all my life, and my skills are beyond Chuntao's level!"
"Quickly, let Chuntao go back and I'll make the meal."
She said as she was about to enter the courtyard.
Li Dashan quickly opened his arms and stood in front of her: "Third Grandma, my brother-in-law has already hired a sister-in-law. How can I change someone at will?"
At this time, Li Qiao heard the noise and walked out of the shed.
He smiled and said: "Third Aunt, it's not your turn yet. I hire people based on the amount of money they lent me."
As soon as these words came out, Zhao Erniu instantly remembered the scene where Wang Guihua sprayed Xingzi on her face two days ago.
Her face darkened a bit: "Since you are too busy cooking and have no time, then you might as well ask Dazhong to help you."
"Come one by one, in order."
Zhao Erniu: "..."
She paused and looked at Li Chuntao: "Young people Chuntao don't know how to save money. Just making lunch will produce such a big smell. How much oil and seasonings will be wasted."
"As long as it's delicious." Li Qiao was still smiling.
"With her reputation, you are not afraid of affecting your business. How unlucky!" Zhao Erniu said again.
Li Chuntao, who was cooking silently on the side, couldn't help but clenched the fire stick in his hand when he heard this, and his body froze.
The smile on Li Qiao's face faded: "I sell snacks. As long as my snacks are delicious, people will buy them."
"On the other hand, third aunt, you came to my house and made a scene, turning my house into a stage in the village and being laughed at. This is what really affects my business."
"Why are you talking! I'm not doing it for your own good. She can drug that person named Zhou, and she can also drug your snacks!"
Zhao Erniu yelled angrily.
As soon as these words came out, the smile on Li Qiao's face completely disappeared: "Did you see with your own eyes that Chuntao drugged that person named Zhou?"
"Can the Zhou family still accuse her unjustly? That's her cousin, her uncle and aunt!" Zhao Erniu continued to yell.
"You didn't see it with your own eyes, but you believed what the Zhou family said. In that case, you and the Zhou family are one family."
"I don't welcome people from the Zhou family here. If you go out, I won't accept anything from you from now on."
Li Qiao pointed to the door with his right hand, his face expressionless.
A drop of water the size of a rice grain slowly condensed and formed on the fingertip of his left hand.
He was always smiling in front of others and seemed to have a bad temper, especially the last time Zhao Erniu and Han Xiaoyan made a scene in front of his house. Not only was he not angry, but he was watching the fun with great interest.
Therefore, Zhao Erniu always thought that he was a person with no temper.
But now his handsome face stopped smiling, his expression was not cold, and his tone was not cold either, but Zhao Erniu shivered inexplicably.
Why does it feel a little dangerous...
"You're not leaving, are you?" Li Qiao raised an eyebrow.
The water droplets on the fingertips of his left hand slid down the clothes on his body and fell to the ground.
But at this moment, Li Dazhong's figure suddenly appeared at the entrance of the courtyard.
"Mom, you are really here at Xiaoqiao!" Li Dazhong frowned: "I just met the embroidery aunt, and she said she saw you coming over with dry firewood. Our dry firewood is not enough, so why are you selling dry firewood?"
As he spoke, he entered the yard, came to Zhao Erniu in a few steps, took Zhao Erniu's arm and left.
"Wait a moment."
Li Qiao spoke first.
"What's wrong?" Li Dazhong looked at Li Qiao.
Only then did he realize that the expressions of Li Qiao, Tao Zhu, and Li Dashan were all wrong. He frowned even more tightly: "If my mother said something, just pretend you didn't hear it. Don't be the same as her!"
"I really can't pretend that I didn't hear what Third Auntie just said. She falsely accused Chuntao of drugging snacks."
Li Qiao quickly repeated what Zhao Erniu had just said.
He also expressed his attitude. He could not accept Zhao Erniu's remarks. Zhao Erniu's remarks would definitely affect his business. Therefore, from today on, Zhao Erniu is not welcome in his home.
Li Dazhong could kill a fly with his eyebrows. He first smiled apologetically at Li Qiao and supported Li Qiao's decision unconditionally. Then he gritted his teeth and looked at Zhao Erniu: "Mom, are you trying to force Chuntao to death?!"
It's rare that Xiaoqiao gave Chuntao a way out, but listen to what his mother said!
Zhao Erniu was scared by Li Qiao just now. When Li Dazhong yelled at her, she suddenly felt stupid.
How could she be scared by Li Qiao!
She shouted: "I am doing this for Li Qiao's good, and I treat it like a donkey's liver and lungs with good intentions. By the time Chuntao really takes the medicine, it will be too late!"
Li Dazhong: "..."
Without saying a word, he dragged Zhao Erniu away.
Zhao Erniu naturally didn't want to leave. She stared at the ground with her feet and struggled: "Li Qiao, it's rare for Third Aunt to come to your house. Why don't you let Third Aunt eat?!"
The smell was so delicious that she couldn't bear to leave.
Li Dazhong: "..."
Shame on you!
He simply bent down and lifted Zhao Erniu onto his shoulders.
"Brother Dazhong, wait, you can have lunch here. After all, the third aunt can't come to my house in the future."
Li Qiao suddenly spoke and asked Li Dazhong to stay.
