Chapter two hundred and eighty seventh woman
Zhao Susu, Xiao Lingyun, Qiu Li, Cherry and several maids looked at each other, turned around and went to pack up their luggage and unload the truck. They had to settle the eight young women who came with the truck.
Ada sneaked into the nearby teahouse early in the morning to stare at this sister Huan. Sometimes, when he saw a few maids and servants talking openly about the Li family, he was uncomfortable in all kinds of ways. When this group of maids were all doing things on their own and did not take the Li family seriously, he became even more uncomfortable.
"I used to..."
Never have you ever abused yourself like this.
Ada came to his senses and was immediately bitter by the tea, "Phoa!"
When he lowered his head, he saw that the tea soup in his cup was extremely turbid. The guests on both sides looked at each other. Ada's face turned red and he quickly lowered his head.
In the teahouse, he would bring his own tea bricks. Most of the people who cook tea themselves are sencha and are good at distributing tea. This time he really lost people.
Ada glanced at the "Sister Huan" who was sitting opposite and leisurely and drank only white water, and didn't dare to complain about anything.
Gu Xiang took his sight back and fell on the house he had just bought: "The housing prices in Beijing are really scary."
The old dog said that their budget is enough, which is indeed very enough.
Not only did they come to Beijing, but they thought about the poor and rich family, and they transferred all the working capital they could adjust. Along the way, they not only did not spend much money, but instead made a large sum of money.
Whenever I arrived at the county town, prefecture, post station and other places, my little wife would take out all the snacks made on the road for sale. Every time I held up the stall, I could sell them all in a short while. Even the merchants who were traveling were stingy and couldn't help but want to buy some food.
When passing Quanzhou, the old dog saw two jars of new wine from their family. The young lady collected and purchased them from a small village she passed by and bought them at a cheap price. She turned around and brewed two jars of fruit wine with the aroma of fruit. As a result, the fruit wine arrived in Quanzhou, and the old Taoist in a Taoist temple bought it for a full 10,000 yuan.
The cost is 137 articles in total.
Of course, the labor cost of my own wife still needs to be calculated separately.
Not only are these serious profits, but their good snow eagle was excited when they met a black shop along the way, and when they met a cross-border bandit village, they were itchy when they met. Along the way, they were almost counting the bandits and strong men. The rewards from the government received totaled 19,300 taels of silver.
Xueying had a bit of obsessive-compulsive disorder. She looked at the 9,000 taels of numbers and felt uncomfortable all over. From the day before yesterday, every time she passed by a county town, she couldn't help staring at the government's notice and looking for which bandit leader's head could be worth 700 taels. Unfortunately, she didn't see the right one after two days. She was feeling very uncomfortable now.
But Gu Xiang still felt short of money.
She turned her head and her eyes fell on the side of the cart.
Neither Qiu Li nor Cherry dared to disturb Xueying. The two of them took on the errands and were responsible for helping the group of women who had just been rescued settled first.
This job is simple, but it is not simple at all.
The women rescued along the way were all passed through the government office, and those who wanted to go home went to letters. Some were quietly picked up by their families. Although some of them did not come, they still had hope. The remaining eight were all unwilling to say anything to the government office. Gu Xiang could tell at a glance that they were all the daughters of good families, but... they were afraid they had no home anymore.
Gu Xiang couldn't see these before, but now she feels a little uncomfortable.
In fact, the five senses, especially the eyes become sharp, there are many benefits and many troubles. At this time, she felt a little sad and anxious, and she had nowhere to say anything, and she couldn't say anything. Anyway, she was just a little uncomfortable.
When she first came, she was very happy to live and didn't care about anything else.
"Little lady."
Qiuli came over and took two glasses of water, wiped her mouth heroically, and exhaled, "I was so angry that I didn't say anything. The sister who said she was called Le'er looked a little more energetic."
"I was puzzled. I told them that if the money is enough, each person can get at least four or five hundred guan. This is six or seven hundred guan. Even if it is in the capital, you can buy a small house if you find a remote place. My parents can't make for less than forty guan a year, and they have to support a family."
"I'm so happy that I'm so happy. Look at them, they are half dead and don't say anything."
Gu Xiang pondered for a moment and asked softly: "In two years, if you and Cherry will not get married, you will have to pay a fine of 200 yuan."
Women in this dynasty did not marry at 18 years and were fined 200 yuan each year. In the early years, this rule was abolished for a while and has recently begun to be implemented again, but only 200 yuan is a lot less than the previous dynasty and the current dynasty at the beginning.
Qiu Li didn't care about this at all: "It's only 200 yuan. The little girl Cherry likes to be lazy and can earn this money for two or three days. Who cares about this? Anyway, we sisters didn't want to get married for a while. We want money and a house, what's going to do with marriage? Go to serve other people's family? I'm not stupid, why can't I think so?"
Cherry also smiled and said, "Marrying is to raise a child. Raising a child is not to support the elderly? Now that there is a young lady here, there is no need to get married!"
"Old Du and his wife are so old. Look at how thoughtful the young lady has arranged for him. She can receive a monthly salary if she doesn't do anything every day. She is a bunch of young apprentices who are attentive to serve her, live well and eat well. She has given clothes, shoes and hats all year round. She has made a lot of money, but she can't spend it at all. Our old Du, now she has started to play with the old lady who is rich and powerful. She takes his wife to drink tea outside. She always has a purse of copper in her arms, and she has specially prepared it for her to give her a tea doctor and a waiter to use it for money. She lives a good life."
"From the future, my sister and I will also ask the young lady to support us."
After a while, Tan Xing started, Qiu Li simply took out the account book and calculated it, and she was stunned: "According to the money we earn now, at most, I can save 50,000 pounds in five years."
Cherry smiled so hard that he couldn't see his eyes: "So I remembered a laughing thing. Didn't we meet a widow on the way? At the age of forty, because of the 30,000 yuan dowry, their 28-year-old county magistrate and several wealthy families in the county were fighting to marry this widow, and they were all beaten to death."
"If we save 50,000 yuan, we must remember not to reveal our wealth. Otherwise, the idea of not getting married will probably make our sisters difficult."
Gu Xiang laughed and swept his eyes to the carriage. He saw the women over there quietly raised their heads and looked over quietly. His face was still panic, and even his anxious and worried expression became even stronger.
But they will show this concern on their face, which is much better than the insensitive appearance just now.
