Chapter 236 Everyone has worked hard today

Anyway, the price set by the shopkeeper Niu this time is not low, but it is very reasonable. The fried pumpkin seeds, which are the worst among nuts, also sold for 100 yuan a catty.

Even so, buyers are still lining up to buy.

There are only those things in total, and they will be gone when they are sold out. I don’t know when I want to eat them.

For foodies, being able to eat rare things is better than doing anything else, enough for them to brag about for a lifetime.

As for the Qian family, they are all worried at this moment. Today's dishes are all cooked by the chefs of Jingtai Restaurant, so there is nothing to say about the taste and taste.

Why are several tables not moving? It would be a shame to throw it away.

The housekeeper asked Mayor Qian for instructions, and Lao Qian was toasting at this time.

"Don't move the food on the table. When the guests are almost gone, let the poor people and beggars outside call and let them clean up."

"Yes, sir!"

At noon, Qiao Mai and the old lady didn't go back to Jixiangyuan, and asked Liu Hai for two bowls of instant noodles to eat.

Looking at the customers who came out of Qian's house, they all ran to their own shop, but there were no longer enough people to recruit inside, and the people who came to buy goods all lined up outside.

Qiao Mai was a little puzzled and said: "The banquet ordered by Mayor Qian is good, why don't you eat it?"

The old lady gave her a blank look, "It's not all about your shop, it's not uncommon for rich people to have banquets like this."

"That's a big table of meals."

At this moment, Steward Qian brought his guards and called out some people, all of whom were poor families wearing patches and beggars.

"Let me just say, old money won't waste those meals, look at it, grandma?"

"He's an old fox!"

"It's just a little unclean. There are so many people here today. I don't know if the people who come here are sick. If these people eat it, will it be okay?"

"No, the more delicate a person is, the worse his health will be, and the poorer a person will be, the stronger his resistance will be."

Qiao Mai sighed, "Eat everything and work a lot, forget it, they can eat whatever they want."

"Why, do you still want to stop it?"

It was the first time for the old lady to eat in front of Qiaoji snack shop. It felt very fresh and pleasant.

After eating, she sat down for a while, and then went back to Jixiangyuan to rest.

Qiao Mai has been sitting in front of the shop, and before it arrives, all the dozens of baskets brought over are sold out, even the original goods in the shop are almost sold out.

Shopkeeper Niu and the others didn’t even eat lunch, seeing that the goods were all gone, the diners left with a sigh, Qiao Mai asked Shopkeeper Niu to pay the money from the account, and asked the guys to go to Liu Hai’s and buy a big bowl of Liangpi each. Pastry biscuits are enough.

Business Manager Niu gave the guys money to buy, and he came to Qiao Mai with the ledger.

"Master, you have received more than six thousand taels of silver today?"

"So much?"

"That's right, the goods are all sold out. After dinner, I have to ask them to hurry up and replenish."

"The weather is getting hotter and hotter, so the food must be fresh!"

"do not worry!"

"Everyone has worked hard today, and each person will be rewarded with five taels of silver."

"Hey, thank you master!"

Qiao Mai got up and went back to Jixiangyuan with his hands behind his back. When the shop assistants heard that the master rewarded each person with five taels of silver, they all shouted again. Those who didn't know thought there was going to be an uprising.

But the buddies in the surrounding shops were so envious that they all wished to sell themselves to Jixiangyuan and become Qiao's buddies.

Everyone looks down on servants and feels ashamed to sell themselves, but look at the servants of Jixiangyuan, they have vegetables and meat for three meals a day, and the monthly silver is more than that of other families. Life is fine.

What an eyesore!

Some people even came to the shop to inquire, "Business Manager Niu, do you still need someone here?"

"What are you doing?"

"Can I sell myself to your house?"

"Prostitution?"

"yes?"

"I can't even sell my kidneys, my family has enough, and I don't need a buddy!"

"Then you guys plan to marry a wife or not?"

Hearing this, the guys all laughed, "If you don't want to marry a wife now, even if you do, you have to ask my master, let me marry again, and if you don't let me marry you, you will be a bachelor forever, haha!"

Don't look at it as a joke, but the speaker has no intention, but the listener has the heart.

Thinking of the treatment of the servants of the Qiao family, some people are tempted by them, so why marry a servant, as long as the life is good and no longer suffer.

According to the laws of the Ming Dynasty, servants marry servants, and the children born are also servants.

The servants marry good people, and the children they give birth to are good people. Even so, no matter how poor the family is, no one will marry a servant.

But the servants of the Qiao family are different. As long as they work for the master in a down-to-earth manner, when they get old, with the character of the master, they will definitely release the contract and go home.

The money saved in the master's house can also be used to buy a house and land at that time, which is a hundred times better than that of ordinary people.

Some people can't think about it, and some people think about it, so they are thinking about it.

They not only thought about the male servants of the Qiao family, but they didn't even let go of Yuehong and Yuexia who were serving Ling'er, and even the mother-in-law didn't want to let go.

Of course Qiao Mai wouldn't know. After staying outside for a day, he wanted to take a good rest when he returned home.

The old man and the others won't come back tomorrow, but they will definitely come back the day after tomorrow. I don't know how the two Fengyun brothers fared in the exam.

It should be about the same for the first time, otherwise the old man would not let them go. He never fights uncertain battles.

Linger, on the other hand, has become more polite since she joined Nanny Jin.

Nurse Jin mentioned to herself that she would buy a long piano for the child.

It happened to be free at the moment, she flashed into the space, searching for the Changqin on the platform.

At Mayor Qian’s side, the guests dispersed, and the dishes on each table were cleaned up by poor people and beggars.

Lu Sanniang changed into another outfit and was having dinner with him.

"Old money?"

"Huh? If you have something to say, madam, we are now husband and wife."

"Sister Qiao gave that medicine?"

"Yes, from today onwards, we will eat it, half a year later, and then what."

Lu Sanniang blushed, she turned around and came to the pillow, took out a box and opened it in front of Mayor Qian.

"Do you have a look?"

When Mayor Qian saw what was in the box, he gasped, "Is this what Miss Qiao gave you?"

"Um!"

"This woman is really good. She is unwilling to owe others' debts even if she dies. I just gave her a few banknotes. That's because she gave my elder brother and me medical money for the treatment."

"Forget it, let's leave it at that. If something happens to her in the future, I will try my best to protect her."

"Uh-huh!"

"It's just that Ruxin didn't come today, so I feel a little unhappy."

"You didn't tell her, so you can't blame her for not coming. I sent someone to watch over there. If something happens, I will notify us. You don't have to worry."

At this moment, a boy ran to the door panting.

"Master, over there in Fucheng, Miss Ruxin was beaten!"

Mayor Qian stood up abruptly, Lu Sanniang's expression was rather unsightly, and on this day of great joy, she chose to add embarrassment at this juncture.

"I'll go and see, are you at home?"

"No, I'm going too!"

The two of them changed into ordinary clothes, and hurried to Fucheng in a carriage.

When I arrived in Fucheng, I went straight to Lu Ruxin's house. This girl learned from Qiao Mai, and the word "Xinyuan" was written on the plaque.

The woman who guards the door, her face is blue and purple at this time, has been beaten in a year.

"Where's your wife?"

"Dragged by them to the government office"

"Tell me what's going on?"

"I don't know much about the servant girl. I only know that the man who made friends with the wife, his wife came to the house and beat up our wife. She said that she had put forward some conditions, but the wife did not agree, so the lady said He dragged our wife to the government office, saying that he was going to sue our wife for adultery without a matchmaker."

The mother-in-law's voice became softer as she spoke, and Mayor Qian's face was very ugly.
