There was a lot of commotion in the old house all day long, and Mrs. Bai called for a separation almost every day, but in the end she was just talking.
Bai Ershu's medicine has not been stopped, and Bai Qishi has not returned to her parents' home.
These things were all mentioned by Bai Wanshi when she came to Sanfang to do needlework, but no one paid any attention to them.
After Bai Wei's wounds scabbed, she couldn't stay any longer. She and Bai Sanshu went out early and came back late every day, and their family couldn't stop them.
When Bai Ling doesn't go to town, he habitually goes for a walk by the river or at the foot of the mountain, and he always goes alone.
However, every time Bai Ling came back, she was not injured at all and looked very energetic, so everyone just let her go.
Although the stones in this space have not changed, Bai Ling still insists on looking for distinctive stones every day, thinking that even if they cannot be turned into jade, they will look good and be more down-to-earth if placed in the stream.
While picking up pebbles, Bai Ling speared two fish. Just as he was about to get up and land, he met an acquaintance, the silly and handsome Qian Duoduo.
Bai Ling was slightly panicked. She didn't know when the young man came over or if she noticed that all the stones she picked up disappeared out of thin air.
By carrying the bucket, Bai Ling silently transferred some stones in the space into the bucket, and then slowly landed ashore.
"I'm hungry, why don't you grill the fish for me?" The young man who had just sunk into the water stood on the bank of the river, looking like an old man, and shouted to Bai Ling, who was serious about fishing.
If he knew that Bai Ling regarded him as a fool with too much money, the young man would never take care of Bai Ling again.
"Give me some money?" Bai Ling raised a glance and continued wiping his feet, getting the new shoes wet, but he was sorry for the holes his fingers pricked when he put the soles on.
"Do you think I'm someone who doesn't pay my bills?" The young man snorted, lifted up his clothes and sat on the river bank, urging: "Hurry up, I'm hungry, and your life won't even be enough to pay for it."
The young man looked at Bai Ling, who was all patched up, and saw that her eyes were filled with silver, and he couldn't help but suspect that he was being overly concerned.
How could an out-and-out peasant girl have the ability to suppress the poison in his body?
Bai Ling didn't know that the boy was suspicious of her, so he came to the river bank to look for her.
If someone comes to give money to someone, Bai Ling will not mind the other person's attitude. He wishes that such good things would happen every day.
"Here we come." Bai Ling walked ashore with a smile, put on his straw sandals, and went to collect firewood.
The bonfire was lit, and while Bai Ling was grilling fish, he couldn't help but look at the young man a few more times.
Although Bai Ling is not a good-looking person, admiring handsome guys can still make people feel good, not to mention that the boy in front of him represents money.
"Hey, you..." Bai Ling suddenly thought of the toxins in the young man's body, but he swallowed the words again.
Compared with the life of a stranger, the few people in the family are more important, and the most important thing is not to cause trouble.
"Huh?" The young man squinted his eyes and looked lazily at Bai Ling.
When Bai Ling looked at him, the young man could sense it.
It was only Bai Ling's pure appreciation, without a trace of admiration or any infatuated behavior, that prevented the young man from getting angry.
"Um..." Bai Ling rolled his eyes and said in a pretense of embarrassment: "I will inevitably have to contact you several times in the future. You won't agree to calling you apprentice. I can't keep asking you to feed me. Even if it's fake
A name has to be called, right? My name is Bai Ling."
"My surname is Shangguan." The young man blurted out, and then he was a little stunned, but it didn't matter if he only said his last name, so he said, "You can just call me Shangguan."
Bai Ling nodded and didn't ask for the name again. She really wanted to have a name, and it didn't matter if the other party didn't tell her.
However, as a doctor, he could not bear the torture of a good young man by poison, so he secretly added a few drops of spiritual spring water to the fish while grilling it.
This is Bai Ling's latest discovery. You can use your mind to control the entry and exit of space, including getting water, which is quite convenient.
After Shangguan ate two fishes, he slowly wiped his fingers, threw a silver ingot to Bai Ling, and asked casually, "Are you very good at water?"
"It's just a little bit better than you." Bai Ling tossed the money, twirled his fingers with a smile, and said very modestly.
"How about you teach me how to swim and I'll pay you for it?" Shangguan glared at Bai Ling, opened the sheepskin water bag and rinsed his mouth, and said lazily: "Ten taels of silver a day."
Bai Ling blinked, the shape of silver flashed in his moist eyes, and nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.
Ten taels of silver a day is a sky-high price!
An ordinary farmer's family would not be able to earn so much in a year, and it would be enough to afford three mud huts.
Although Bai Ling is not short of money, nor is he short of ways to make money, who would be dissatisfied with having too much money?
"But I'm free every day, so I can teach you how to do it every other day?" Although Bai Ling wanted to make money, he didn't want to make it public.
This era also emphasized the importance of guarding men and women, and her family would definitely not approve of her having private interactions with men, especially in the water, where physical contact would be unavoidable.
Bai Ling Qiyi's gaze was like a pet that wanted to please its owner, making people want to tease him.
Shangguan glanced sideways at Bai Ling and snorted coldly: "Yes, but the wages will be halved."
"The price you paid is too cruel. Do you still have any humanity?" Bai Ling's hand holding the silver turned white. He lost five taels of silver in vain. Is it sad?
Staring at Bai Ling's accusing eyes, Shangguan's eyes became a little more interesting, but he said arrogantly: "If you dare to be disrespectful to me again, your wages will be halved again."
Bai Ling's heart was bleeding, but after understanding the market conditions of this era, she knew very well the importance of money.
Moreover, an adult man can only earn one tael of silver a month by doing hard work. The wages given by the young man are absolutely sky-high.
For five buckets of rice, Bai Ling kept giving himself psychological hints. He closed his eyes and felt like a strong man cutting off his arms. He gritted his teeth and said: "Five taels is five taels, but it can only last for an hour at a time. If you don't agree, please ask someone else."
"
After saying that, Bai Ling gritted his teeth and stood up, picked up the bucket and left.
If you have time, why don't you go home and draw a few drawings? The guy who makes money very quickly said that Bai Ling didn't have time to waste time with this young master who didn't know if he was serious or not.
"There are fifty taels of silver here, let's use it as a deposit." Shangguan weighed the money bag with one hand and touched the jade pendant around his waist with the other: "Remember, you can't let the third person know about you teaching me how to swim.
Otherwise, I will take my money back."
Hearing this, Bai Ling immediately walked back quickly, quickly took the money bag, opened it, took a look, and said with satisfaction: "I know, I'll be waiting for you here the day after tomorrow."
The deposit of fifty taels of silver was just for drawing a set of drawings, but Bai Ling was still very happy. This was considered an unexpected windfall, right?
This amount of money is enough to buy food for several years. The sky is huge and the earth is big, and the belly is full.
Forgive Bai Ling for being hungry and scared. All he thinks about is money except food.
Furthermore, Bai Xiaoshan wants to study, and Bai Ling doesn't want to wrong Bai Xiaoshan and be bullied by the children of a wealthy family, so he has to spend money on it. There are many places to use money at home, so naturally the more the better. (To be continued)
