Su Yu accepted the matter of buying someone well. In her opinion, it was like a company boss recruiting people in his previous life. If he found the person suitable during the probation period, he would keep him. If he was not suitable, then sorry, big deal. She sells people back again.
Su Yu felt that he was not a good person, but since he bought someone, he had to take care of things like clothing and housing. I took the people to a clothing store and bought two sets of clothes, two pairs of shoes, a quilt for each person, a tub and bucket for washing, and so on. With the three of us together, we had enough to go back. Pulled an ox cart. The three people in the car were also worried at first, but now they have calmed down. With such a good master, it would be unreasonable if they didn't cherish it.
Among the people who bought it, Aunt Zhou was in her thirties, and she seemed to be quick at work. Uncle Zhao, who is in his thirties, used to farm in Zhuangzi. There is also Li Quan, who is twenty years old. He studied at home for two years and knows a lot of words. He can buy it without having to teach himself. She also has a more active mind, so she plans to put it inside the shop to look at the shop.
"Mom, I'm back."
When the three of them saw the Su family, they were quite different from the farmhouse they had imagined. But when they thought about it, how could a family that could afford three servants be so different?
The door of Su's courtyard was open, and when no one answered, he thought that his mother must be in the backyard, so he rushed to the backyard with people and carriages.
"There are three houses in this row from the right. You can choose one of your own, take your things and settle in. When you are ready, come and see me."
"Yes, girl."
"Go ahead."
The three of them each picked a room, put their bedding, shoes, tubs, etc. inside the house, and immediately went to the front yard.
Su Yu's family of three were sitting in the front yard chatting, and they were talking about the three of them.
"Yu'er, didn't you say you bought one person? Why did you buy three? Why does our family need so many people?"
"Mom, I never said I would only buy one person. Besides, our family has a lot of things to do. Let us do it without being exhausted. From tomorrow on, our family will start making bacon, soap, preserved eggs and I also need to make some salted duck eggs and start hatching them. I also plan to buy some from the hill behind our house. What kind of things don’t require manpower? Just tell me, how many hands can the three of us spare?"
The two of them were shocked by Su Yu's words about buying a mountain.
"Why did you buy this back mountain?"
"I'm going to plant some fruit trees."
"What kind of fruit trees do you want to plant? Do you want to buy a mountain?"
In fact, the mountain behind the Su family is not big at all. It is just a small slope. It is estimated to be less than 20 acres in area. There are only some very small trees on it. The big ones are all covered by the village. For convenience, people cut it at home and used it as firewood. It is not that difficult to take care of it. She planned to ask the village chief if he could sell it. If he wanted to sell it, she would buy the mountain behind and plant some lemons on it.
This was found by Su Yu in the back mountain once. There were not many, only five trees. Lemons were called sour lemons in ancient times. Their taste is no different from modern lemons, but they are smaller in size. She plans to plant lemons all over the back hill. But she couldn't say this now. If her parents knew that she wanted to plant sour lemons, they would definitely not agree. If people in the village met them on the mountain, no one would pick them for home. Only the children who went up to the mountains to play would occasionally pick two to eat and play with.
"Dad, Mom, when have I ever been unreliable, just trust me this time."
That's true. In the past two years, Su Yu has become more and more stable in his work. The way to make money at home is Su Yu's idea. When I think about it, the couple has nothing to worry about.
"Sir, madam, miss."
The three of them came to the front yard and saluted the three members of the Su family. Su Yu accepted it well, but Su Laoer and his wife were a little uncomfortable with it. They were born with mud-legged backgrounds, and it would be strange to get used to being called "Master or Madam" by others all of a sudden. However, my daughter said that the title could not be changed, so they could only get used to it slowly.
"Is everything settled?"
"It's settled, thank you girl."
"Then from now on, Aunt Zhou, you will follow my mother and help her with the work. You will cook three meals a day at home."
"Yes, girl."
"Uncle Zhao, just follow my father and do whatever my father asks you to do."
"Yes, girl."
"Li Quan will follow me from now on. I will tell you what to do when the time comes."
"Yes, girl."
"It's getting late today, so you can just walk around and get used to it. Aunt Zhou is going to cook. You can cook whatever is available in the kitchen. My family has no taboos."
As soon as the three of them left, Su Laoer and Lian's straight backs bent. It seemed that this master and his wife were not that easy to be.
"Father, mother, they will all be servants of our family from now on, and they can do whatever they need to do. There is no reason to let the masters work while the others are idle. You don't have to do the work on the stove from now on. , let Aunt Zhou go."
Mrs. Lian was right.
Seeing that her mother had no objection, Su Yu couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief, as she had taken over the power of being the chef.
But when cooking in the evening, Mrs. Lian was worried and watched Mrs. Zhou cooking in the kitchen room. Seeing Mrs. Zhou putting oil on her face, Mrs. Lian's eyelids twitched. She wanted to say something, but she held back the words. She had not forgotten that she was the master now. If she cared about such a small thing, would she be betrayed by others? joke. But it was disturbing to see him, so he simply left the kitchen house and stayed out of sight.
In fact, the most indispensable thing for the Su family now is oil, but Lian is used to saving, and this problem cannot be corrected.
When Su Sheng returned home, he found out that his family had bought three servants. He was a little uncomfortable at first. Fortunately, we shared two tables during the meal, so there was no trace of embarrassment.
When Mrs. Zhou had just finished the meal, she asked Su Yu to divide it into two portions. She didn't think much about it at the time, but when she saw that the food on the table for three people was the same as the one on the main table, she was immediately moved. Although the host's family is in the village, he is really kind to them.
At this time, Su Yu picked up a large piece of meat and threw it directly behind him. Erhu, who was lying on his stomach, caught it accurately and ate it deliciously. It seemed like this was not happening once or twice.
Mrs. Zhou felt that her emotion was a bit unnecessary. In the Su family, the dogs all ate the same as the owner's family. No wonder the wife asked her to cook more meat when we were cooking.
After the three of them arrived at Su's house, they started to get busy. Butcher Gao delivered five pigs every day. Su Laoer worked with Zhao Qian, and Lian and Zhou came to help when they were not busy. Su Yu completely broke away from home and took Li Quan to the town every day. He asked a carpenter to build a row of containers in the shop and taught Li Quan how to sell the goods in the shop.
Although the shop sells home-grown agricultural products, when customers come to the door, you are like a wooden pestle, and you will not come forward to introduce what kind of business you are doing. Su Yu taught patiently, and Li Quan learned patiently. In just a few days, he was able to learn well. And Li Quan's horizons were completely opened. He didn't expect that there were so many ways to sell things.
