Chapter 494 Your father is fortunately not an official

Xu Jiaojiao smiled and ate without talking.

She heard compliments eight hundred times a day, and her ears felt like calluses.

It is already invulnerable to all poisons.

Mrs. Xu Zhang took a bite of garlic and said, "Old girl, I can't believe your father's words. Fortunately, your father didn't become an official or anything. If this was true, it wouldn't cost our whole family.

?Xu Youde, if you have the ability to contribute to the village by yourself, don’t fool my daughter. My daughter has already contributed the recipe for loquat ointment. Don’t push yourself too hard and want to make the recipe for loquat wine, no matter what kind of wine it is.

Fang Zi, our old girl is going to open a wine shop, and everything is kept secret. Don’t think about sharing it with me anymore, there is nothing such a good thing."

Xu Youde didn't mind being sprayed with the smell of garlic.

"No, I just complimented our old daughter. You are the only one who thinks more."

The rest of the family started laughing too.

He said something nice, "Dad, I don't mean anything else. I just want to praise my sister for her ability. Mom, how about you eat a piece of your favorite braised pork and try my craftsmanship?"

"Come on, come on, let's all respect my sister. She has made great contributions, and anyone with eyes can see it. Here's to you!"

Several kids also stood up, making noises, and wanted to offer Jiaojiao a glass of wine.

It’s still the loquat fruit wine I brewed last year, not hard liquor.

The last jar was left, and Xu Zhang drank it with her heart and body hurting today.

Xu Jiaojiao had no choice but to stand up and said, "Okay, let's have a drink together, everyone has worked hard!"

Making loquat paste, a seasonal product, requires a lot of work all day long, and everyone suffers.

"It's not hard, you should, old lady!"



We drank a glass of fruit wine together.

The atmosphere reached a climax, and everyone looked up at Mrs. Xu Zhang expectantly.

The time has come for Mrs. Xu Zhang to be responsible for allocating wages.

It was assigned once last year, and it’s the second time this year. Everyone is looking forward to it.

Mrs. Xu Zhang laughed and scolded, "What are you doing with your heads stretched out so long? What are you looking forward to?"

Xu Laosi said shamelessly, "Hey, mother, what can you expect? Of course it's a matter of salary, hehe..."

When it comes to wages, everyone sticks out their necks.

Mrs. Xu Zhang didn't want to be too secretive. The money was calculated by Xu Jiaojiao and her, and it would be paid out sooner or later. The old girl didn't even pay outsiders' wages, so how could she cheat her family's wages?

"This year, God will give you a good chance to eat. It didn't rain even a day during the loquat season. It was sunny every day. There were more fruits this year and there were more people selling them. Although at the beginning, there were spring flowers.

Later, the recipe was passed on to the villagers, and others took away some of the business, but overall, it is much better than last year, and your wages have doubled this year."

The word "double" makes the children cheer!

The adults also looked happy.

In fact, wages can be calculated. How much it costs to hire outside labor per day is double that of a family member. Then, you can estimate how many days you have worked in total.

Then, Mrs. Xu Zhang took out her account book and said, "These are the accounts that your old lady has made for you to remember, the work status, and everyone's wages. Everyone remembers it clearly. I was illiterate before.

Under the guidance of your old lady, you can now roughly understand it. Let me read it to you..."

Everyone pricked up their ears to listen and didn't even bother to eat.

On the whole table, only Xu Jiaojiao and Luo Shi were still eating seriously.

Xu Jiaojiao is the shopkeeper, and Luo has an unparalleled obsession with eating.

Xu Xiaohei squatted next to Xu Jiaojiao, eating his fish bite after bite.

This location used to belong to Xu Laosi, but now the location of Xu Laosi and his family has been moved downwards.

Previously, Xu Laosi had protested that the dining table was already small, and now it was unreasonable to let the cat occupy one of its seats?!

But she couldn't resist Xu Zhang's love for Xu Xiaohei, so she had to give in even if she didn't want to.

Mrs. Xu Zhang cleared her throat,

"Let's start with the eldest house. The eldest house, Mr. Yao, worked for 50 days. The double salary is 40 cents per day, which is 2 taels of silver..."

Mr. Yao smiled.

"In the second room, the second child is counted as a full-time worker in collecting fruits. The second and third girls are all very agile, and you, the old lady, are also considered as full-time workers. You were delayed for a few days and only worked for forty days. Each person has one tael.

Six hundred cents. Shiro went to school to study and worked when he came back from school. Counting five hundred cents..."

Everyone in the second room was delighted.

They were delayed for ten days because of Yuan Chunhua. After Yuan Chunhua came back, they went to work wholeheartedly.

Erya and Sanya winked, they were really happy to be able to earn so much money.

Three people, all considered full-time workers, each earns one to six hundred cents, which is four to eight hundred cents. Adding in Xiaoshiro's five hundred cents, the two houses combined are more than five taels of silver.

It's all pure profit.

Especially Koushiro was very surprised, "Auntie, I can't take it. I go to school every day. I...should come back to help with the work. I don't need to be paid."

Xu Jiaojiao gave him a piece of meat and said, "It's okay. Master praises you for your good study. I will treat it as the money I gave you to buy paper and ink for you."

Shiro suppressed his joy and said cautiously, "Thank you, aunt. I will definitely study hard."

Immediately afterwards, Mrs. Xu Zhang continued to read.

"The third child also helped. The third child peeled the fruit and was no slower than a normal person. Your sister said she would give you full time as well. You also have fifty days' work and two taels of silver."

Xu Laosan hurriedly waved his hands and said, "No, no, I don't need it. I am alone, so I should eat and drink at home and help with household chores. Besides, the old girl saved my life. She helped me with the acupuncture. I

I'm very grateful, I don't charge wages, I should..."

Xu Jiaojiao smiled and said, "Third brother, it's one thing after another. The loquat paste harvest this year is good, and you deserve to be paid for your hard work. Third brother, thank you for your hard work. Besides, this year's loquat paste can be distributed to you."

Now that you’ve got your wages, I won’t have anything to do with the loquat ointment next year, and I won’t be able to pay you any more wages if you think about it.”

The whole family knows that Xu Jiaojiao will not make loquat ointment next year.

It is tentatively planned that Xu Zhang will take over next year. Xu Jiaojiao is mainly developing the business of the wine shop and studying medicine. She will no longer do the seasonal loquat ointment business personally.

Xu Laoer also persuaded Xu Laosan to accept it, "Third brother, I know you are grateful to my sister. I feel the same as you. My life was saved by my sister. I am extremely grateful, but my sister has to do things.
