Wang Xiaoxiao sat on the grass, basking in the afternoon sun, while watching a few children playing.
"Mrs. Second Young Master, the juice is squeezed. Today is orange juice and a little cantaloupe."
"Okay." Wang Xiaoxiao smiled and reminded: "Master Li, thank you for your hard work. That... I want to tell you something."
"You tell me." Xiao Li nodded quickly.
Wang Xiaoxiao signaled to the big bottle beside her and explained: "In the future, buy fruits in the big kitchen and try to buy some seasonal fruits. Our imperial capital has no local fruits, and they are basically from other places. When you choose, try to pick seasonal fruits.
For example, you can buy some oranges or apples now.”
"Okay." Xiao Li smiled apologetically and explained: "In the past, Lao Li always went to the market. I... I still have some lack of experience. If there is something that cannot be done well, please tell me."
"It's okay." Wang Xiaoxiao chuckled: "I just reminded you, but didn't say you didn't do well. In the past, Brother Tietou sent fruits. Xinyuan's fruits were plenty and good, so we couldn't eat them at all.
After that, I often give it to everyone for help. But he has been too busy for a while and probably forgot."
Xiao Li explained: "I - I go to the best supermarket nearby to buy it, and I have a receipt for purchase every time. However, the fruit here is not as fresh as the one sent by my son-in-law - it's so fresh and delicious!
”
The two of them talked a little more.
Xiao Li turned his eyes and asked with concern: "Mrs. Second Young Master, I heard... Young Master A Chong is injured - is he getting better? Is he almost healed?"
"It's almost done." Wang Xiaoxiao couldn't say too much, and said perfunctorily: "At a young and strong age, the pain healed quickly. He was very serious and he couldn't come home for the time being, so he had to take a good rest."
Xiao Li felt very distressed and said, "All gods must bless Mr. Achong...bless!"
Then, she asked about the situation of Master Li and asked when he would come back.
"Not sure for the time being." Wang Xiaoxiao explained: "I heard that he is not only making snacks there, but also working as a teacher for Sister An An."
Xiao Li was very envious and said, "You can go abroad and live by the beach and watch the sea every day. I heard that your salary has increased... It's really enviable!"
Wang Xiaoxiao thought she was hinting at herself and explained with a smile: "His salary has not increased, just like before. The main reason is that he has to teach his sister-in-law a few minutes of class a week, and his brother will give him some extra hard work."
"It's so good!" Xiao Li just finished envious, but soon stopped envious. "But no matter how much money he earns, it's not his own - it's quite miserable!"
Wang Xiaoxiao was stunned and asked, "It's not his own? That's his labor income, why doesn't it belong to him?"
"Oh!" Xiao Li smiled awkwardly, "Mrs. Second Young Master, you have been in front of you, and you are unaware of the kitchen. In fact, Lao Li is not a slander. The main reason is that I and him are here.
I have been working together for more than ten years. I and him are the only ones who work. I often chat while working, so I know his family quite well. He... I have given all the money he earns to his children and grandchildren, and I am a penny.
Nothing can be obtained."
What? Nothing is worth?
Wang Xiaoxiao was a little disbelief and asked, "I've given it to my children and grandchildren, and I can't bear to spend it at all?"
"Yes!" Xiao Li frowned and explained: "Our wife paid him a salary in the card, and he didn't know how to use the bank card, so they all fell into his daughter-in-law's hands. Except for the holidays, the gentleman gave us the gift.
With one or two red envelopes, he would hide his cash and buy a few cheap clothes, shoes and socks, and he never touched his salary and subsidies at all."
The husband and wife of Xinyuan are very kind to the servants and helpers, and they usually give you extra high temperature subsidies in summer. If you work overtime on a statutory holiday, you will also be paid three times the salary plus a little holiday subsidy.
In Xiao Li's opinion, he was lucky to work in Xinyuan. Because the owner never looked down on them those who worked hard in physical work, he was very considerate and generous in paying for money.
"Over the years, Lao Li has made at least one million yuan here - they all bought houses for his son and grandson. His daughter-in-law came here two days ago and asked him if he had come back, saying that the old man had called on his cell phone.
No one answered, is it already back? I said no. Later, his daughter-in-law said that her granddaughter was about to get married, and her husband's family said she wanted a car as a dowry, and said she wanted to discuss it with him."
Speaking of this, Xiao Li couldn't help rolling his eyes.
"They are like this in their family! Unless they ask for money from the old man, they will never be willing to show up when they are beaten to death! Every time they come, they ask for money, and every time they are like this! The old, young, men and women, are like this!
Back to Lao Li's granddaughter came. When he saw that his coat was very high-end, he asked where it came from. Lao Li said it was given to him by Mr. Xue, and his granddaughter said it was worth it. He even suggested that it would be worth it when he took it out to a second-hand store.
Tens of thousands! Old Li stammered and said that it was Mr. Xue’s intention, and he was embarrassed to let it go. His granddaughter had no choice but to take some snacks and leave."
Wang Xiaoxiao realized this and asked, "At the beginning of the year, right? I remember that my mother bought a few coats for her grandfather, and one was a little narrower. She originally planned to change the code, but it happened that Old Li Duan
After entering the house with a snack, my grandfather smiled and said that he would not change it. It should be appropriate to wear it for Old Li, and then I gave it to Uncle Li."
"Yes, yes!" Xiao Li explained excitedly: "The things that the wife bought are naturally good things! The old cotton jacket around Lao Li has been around for many years. After getting the coat, he was very happy for many days. Who knew that his granddaughter had actually
It’s too much to say that you want to exchange money! When you come to see the old man, you can buy some cheap street stalls and then keep asking for money, all kinds of money!”
Wang Xiaoxiao couldn't help feeling sorry for Lao Li and asked, "His salary card has been handed over, so there shouldn't be much money around her? She's going to discuss it with her granddaughter if she wants a dowry?"
"His card has to pay the mortgage to his son and grandson." Xiao Li explained: "His daughter-in-law said she had no money around her and had to discuss it with the old man. The wife originally introduced her to be a nanny for Hu Ye and his family, but after the epidemic, they all had a family of people.
If she didn't live in the courtyard, Hu Ye and his wife followed him abroad. Her son and grandson lived on our side, so she was fired. She had no salary in these few months, so she didn't have any money at all?
Everyone earns money and receives wages, but they all have to pay for big and small matters! Why did Lao Li, who has earned more salary in the past few months, have not been as good as before... It's strange! Didn't I say there are more allowances?"
Wang Xiaoxiao thought about it and explained: "It's probably because the elder brother gave him the extra allowance in cash. I remember my mother said a while ago that foreign exchange money in China is very troublesome, and there was a failure once or twice.
