Chapter 146 Bastard
Ma Qingmei just left.
Ma Chunxia stood up with a swish.
As she spoke, she trotted to the door and shouted at Ma Qingmei's back.
As if he was afraid that Ma Qingmei couldn't hear him.
Small favors from the Jiang family.
This made Ma Chunxia completely become Zhang Jinlan's lackey.
Whoever dares to scold Zhang Jinlan is scolding her!
"Okay, don't pay attention to her. She's always like this, always treating others as fools. Little does she know that she's the foolishest. She looks calculating, and she really thinks that others can't see it. Talking to her is just adding bad luck. Come, I'll give you the money, and go back to bed early."
See Ma Chunxia helping me.
Zhang Jinlan was very satisfied.
It seems that her original decision was not wrong.
After saying that, she took out her purse from her waist, took out a handful of copper coins from it, counted them, and handed them to Ma Chunxia.
"Thank you very much. I'll go back first. Sister Jinlan, have a good rest. We won't disturb you. We'll send you back tomorrow. If Ma Qingmei comes again, come find me. I'll scold her to death. This damn widow only knows how to take advantage of others every day. Who in the village doesn't avoid her when they see her? Okay, I'm going back."
Otherwise, the two of them could get along well.
They all love money like their life.
After taking the copper coin, Ma Chunxia's eyes brightened several shades.
Holding the money tightly, she left with her sons.
Zhang Jinlan also closed the door.
Back to the bedroom.
Jiang Fubao in the room finished watching the show. She lay on the bed contentedly, covered herself with a small quilt, and prepared to have a good sleep.
However, the Jiang Zi Chong brothers, who had just returned from the town at night, had just arrived home.
"Mom, open the door, we are back——"
Knock on the door.
Waited for several minutes.
Wang Xiu Lian put on her coat and slowly opened the door.
She looked at her two sons with anticipation in her eyes.
"Zichong, Zitao, how are you? You came back so late, are you now a waiter? How much is the salary paid by the master? Do you have half a tael of silver?"
Wang Xiu Lian was blocking the door.
As a result, both brothers were unable to enter the house.
"Mom, let's go in and have a drink of water first."
Jiang Zi Chong was speechless.
They walked all the way and were very thirsty.
Now I just want to drink water.
My throat is smoking.
"Oh, then come in. I forgot to boil water for you. Just drink the water in the jar. I'll go scoop it for you."
Wang Xiu Lian only remembered it after being reminded by her son.
She stepped back a few steps, let her sons in, and then closed the gate.
"No, we'll scoop it out ourselves."
Jiang Zichong walked quickly to the jar, picked up the gourd ladle, scooped a full ladle, drank it all in one breath, and then sat comfortably on a chair in the yard to rest.
Without waiting for him to breathe.
Wang Xiulian asked again: "Zichong, please tell me, do you want to make me anxious to death——"
resignedly.
Jiang Zi Chong had no choice but to answer.
"Mom, none of the restaurants in town are hiring waiters, so it was Brother Eryong who found me a job, cleaning tables and washing dishes in a restaurant. I get ten cents a day. If the restaurant doesn't finish the food, I have to wait for the cooks and waiters to take it away. The owner told me to bring back the rest, and I have to go back to work tomorrow.
The shopkeeper tried me out this afternoon and said I did a good job, so we both came back so late. Unfortunately, there is only one person left. Zitao has been waiting for me in the backyard for a long time. Let Zitao stay at home. I really can’t find one in town. Many people are vying for casual jobs. Now I can’t even make six cents a day.”
Jiang Zi Chong was worried about his younger brother going to find a job alone.
When you are angry, you do something impulsive.
He suggested that his brother stay home.
Anyway, he is here.
Ten cents a day is not a small amount of money.
You can also bring food back.
Enough to support a family.
"What? A dishwasher? What future can a lousy dishwasher have? I knew Jiang Eryong had bad intentions. He must want to make fun of you. Don't do it. Keep looking for him. If you can't find him, I'll go to his house.
Ask Zhang Jinlan to help and see if she can get you to her shop. You may not know that Jiang Dahe and his brother are not waiters at all. The shop is owned by his family."
Thinking about the news I heard today.
Wang Xiu Lian was furious.
The sour taste was about to overflow from her throat.
Jiang Zi Chong, who was tired after a day's work, didn't want to argue with his mother anymore.
He went back to his room and went to sleep without saying a word.
Didn't even take a shower.
Jiang Zitao was kept in the yard by Wang Xiulian and questioned.
at this time.
Chang'an Town, a hundred miles away.
The end of the most prosperous Chengtou Street.
In a lower-class room of an inn.
Sun Lai Di and the other two stood in the corner, shivering.
The three of them had just finished being scolded.
The man holding a bamboo stick sat beside the bed, staring at them viciously.
"Do you remember what I just said? When you go to the noble mansion tomorrow, perform well. This is your last chance. If you mess up again, I will sell the three of you to a brothel. Don't be so shameless. You don't want to be a maid, but a piece of shit that everyone rides on!"
The Sun Lai Di and her sister didn't know what a brothel was.
But Fang seemed to know it.
After all, he comes from a wealthy family.
And recognize words.
Even if the elders at home don't say it, you can see it in the storybooks.
She turned pale.
The strong composure collapsed at this moment.
It's already dark.
The man with the teeth was sleeping on the bed.
Three little ones, no place to sleep.
I can only lie on the ground like a dog.
Although it was a lower-class room, the floor was paved with blue bricks and was not as dirty as mud.
Add some straw.
The three of them fell asleep in anxiety.
When I woke up, it was already daybreak.
Under the orders of the human traffickers, they washed their faces and changed into clean clothes.
Got on the carriage.
Leave the inn with Ren Yazi.
The carriage had been on the move for less than a quarter of an hour.
Just enter a door.
Stopped in a yard.
The three of them sat in the carriage and dared not say a word.
"Excuse me, sir, how many people are there ahead?"
Fang Wanru pricked up her ears and listened to the noise outside.
The human tooth seemed to be talking to someone else.
"It's still early. There are at least 40 or 50 people here. You're too late."
"Oh, I came here early in the morning, why are there still so many people here?"
Ren Yazi's voice sounded a little impatient.
"From your accent, you're not from Chang'an Town, are you? The Fang family has announced that they are looking for a personal maid for their eldest son, who must be under ten and over seven years old.
If you are chosen, you can get a reward of fifty taels of silver. This news is not only known to you, but also to the surrounding towns. Look, such a big backyard is crowded with ox carts and horse carriages. You wait patiently, I am in line in front of you. How many people did you bring? Are they of the right age?"
"Three. The oldest is eight years old, and the youngest is three years old."
Ren Yazi answered honestly.
"Three years old? What's the point of bringing such a young one? They want one who is seven years old or older. A three-year-old baby may not even see the master's house. It would be a waste to bring him here."
"I'm just trying my luck. If I pick one, I can get fifty taels. I can rest for at least three months."
