Chapter 4 You cut down the tree, I cook


I was just about to go find Master Jiu to see if anything happened, but I really couldn't trust Master Jiu, this arrogant little prince.

"What are you looking for?"

Master Jiu's voice came from the side.

I ran over and said, "Master Jiu, that person didn't make things difficult for you, right?"

"No, I have three days of work, two days of rest, and five taels of monthly silver, not bad."

Jiu Ye said in a very arrogant tone.

"He's so good, he can't have any conspiracy, right?"

I thought about it carefully, but it was wrong.

"We are responsible for helping him beat people.

Of course the salary must be high, and if they have money, they can do whatever they like."

Master Jiu.

I'm still thinking about it, and I always feel that there won't be such a good thing in this world as a pie suddenly falling.

"Okay, don't think too much.

From now on, call me Ah Jiu, not Master Jiu, so that others won't laugh at me.

I am a servant and still act as a master."

Master Jiu deliberately diverted Shu Qiao's attention.

"Ajiu" Shu Qiao showed some awkwardness.

"Okay, let's go buy some things."

Master Jiu strode away.

"Oh, but we have no money."

I said after chasing him.

"Don't worry, I got my salary early."

Master Jiu shook the money in his hand and left.

I mopped the floor at home with a mop.

This was my homemade mop.

I cleaned the inside and outside of the house, and there was nothing to do next.

I lay on a chair in the yard and thought for a while: How boring.

I, a modern woman, have now become a housewife who cleans the house, and she is also a housewife with nothing to do.

Alas.

"Sister Qiao."

Shilan came over carrying a small basket.

"Shi Lan, what did you take?"

I sat up and asked.

"Brother said your clothes are too old, so I brought you some new fabrics from the store.

See which one you like."

I took a look, and they were all square scraps of fabric.

"These fabrics are very comfortable to touch, isn't it a waste now?"

I looked at it with some distress.

After all, life is difficult, and I also feel it.

"Brother said you were resting at home, so he asked me to cut some fabrics and colors for you to choose from."

Shi Lan was very playful.

Shu Qiao didn't feel distressed at all.

"Thank you brother for me.

How much does this fabric cost?"

Shu Qiao asked.

"You don't need money, so don't be so polite."

Shilan said a little unhappy.

"Okay, then I will go to your store to help.

Just think of it as repaying your kindness for giving me clothes, okay?"

Shu Qiao asked.

There is nothing to do at home anyway, so why not go out and find something to do.

This is great, my brother can see Sister Qiao often.

"Okay, let's go to our store now."

"Okay, wait until I close the door."

I ran over and closed the door, then followed Shilan to the store.

There are people coming and going in the store, and business is still good.

"Shilan, is your store doing well?"

I praised.

"That's right, this will also be my sister's shop from now on.

I'll just be responsible for checking the accounts from now on."

Shi Lan happily pulled me over.

"Then who usually keeps the accounts?"

I asked, fearing that I would steal someone else's job.

"Before, a scholar came to settle accounts, but now he is preparing to take the exam in Beijing."

Shilan.

I nodded.

"Sister, you choose your own.

If you choose, I will send it to a tailor shop so they can make clothes for you."

Shilan said obediently.

"Okay."

I looked around and found a lot of square fabric about six centimeters in the corner.

I felt it was a pity, so I picked it up and said to Shi Lan, "Is there any use for this?"

"Oh, this is a cloth style that is usually shown to rich people.

After seeing it, it is basically useless."

Shi Lan.

I hesitated and said, "Can you give this to me?"

"Okay, sister, if you like it, just take it."

Shilan said generously.

"Thank you."

I smiled happily.

In the evening, I went home and took out the embroidery needle that I had not used for a long time.

I embroidered different flowers and birds and animals on each piece of fabric.

I am going to put spices and herbs in it, mainly some herbs that have a calming effect, so I think it will be more valuable.

The next day, I carried three fish to the back door of Bao Mansion and carried the fish in.

After putting the fish away, I asked a servant in Bao Mansion: "Brother, let me ask, do you know where Ah Jiu is?"

"Ajiu is the new martial arts master, right?"

Little brother.

"Yes."

I agreed, almost enough to teach people martial arts.

"Come with me."

Little brother. : "Okay."

I happily followed the little brother.

After passing through several courtyards and arriving at the martial arts training ground, I saw Master Jiu training there very seriously.

"The punch must be heavy and the hand must be straight, so that you can hit the enemy's life directly."

Master Jiu said seriously.

I stood nearby and didn't dare to disturb him.

It was rare that he taught them so powerfully.

How could I have the nerve to disturb him.

Master Jiu heard some people talking and still staring at me, so he turned his head and looked at me.

He was very happy, but he didn't run over immediately and said, "You continue to practice."

Then he ran over and said, "Madam, it's only been a day and you miss me."

Seeing Master Jiu's playful and smiling face, I said, "Don't be a slut.

I just want to see if you are causing any trouble.

Also, who is your wife?

Don't call me that."

"We've all slept together, why don't you admit it?"

Master Jiu said very coquettishly.

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

I took out the sachet from my arms and threw it to Master Jiu, "Here you are, I'm leaving."

I turned around and left without saying anything.

Master Jiu shouted from behind: "Hey, I'll go back tomorrow night, remember to cook something delicious for me."

I just casually said: "I know."

Master Jiu picked up the sachet and smelled it: Are you so peaceful because you are afraid that I won’t sleep well?

Master Jiu walked up to them with the sachet, and someone below joked: "Teacher Jiu, your wife is so beautiful, are you willing to go home?"

Master Jiu immediately said like a coach: "Hey, you continue to practice, I will take care of my wife."

But he kept holding the sachet in his hand and refused to let go.

After I returned, I went directly to Shilan's Lanying Cloth Shop.

I walked in and saw Shilan cutting clothes.

I walked over and said, "Shilan, you are so awesome.

You can actually make your own clothes."

"Sister Qiao.

You came just in time to see if you like the style of the clothes."

Shilan pulled me over.

I looked at it several times and said with great emotion: "Is this for me?"

"That's right."

Shi Lan picked up the clothes and made some gestures on me, then said, "It seems they are about the same size.

It will be ready in a few days."

"Thank you."

I spoke from the bottom of my heart.

"Sister, why are you crying?"

Shilan said, holding my hand.

"No, I was just moved.

I went to keep accounts."

I was going to settle accounts.

Shilan grabbed me and said, "Sister, from now on you only need to come over at the beginning of the month to calculate the general ledger.

At other times, you can help me sell cloth."

I nodded and said, "Okay."

In the evening, I prepared some food, including a tofu soup, a plate of pork and stir-fried vegetables, and of course a bowl of egg soup, specially for Master Jiu.

I looked outside the door.

Master Jiu had not come back yet, so I took the embroidery needle and embroidered there.

"Madam."

Master Jiu's voice came over.

I put down the thread basket.

Said: "Master Jiu, don't call me ma'am anymore.

If you do, I'll leave."

"Hey, isn't it good to be my wife?"

Master Jiu deliberately raised his head and raised his chest as he spoke.

I know that if we don't take some practical actions, Master Jiu will still be like this.

I just want to leave this house.

"Hey, I can stop shouting."

Master Jiu came over and stopped me from walking.

Seeing that I was gone, he said, "I'll call you Xiaoshu from now on."

"Xiao Shu, why do I feel so strange?"

I hesitated for a moment, then realized that Xiao Shu has the same sound as my uncle.

"No, let's call it something else."

I said.

"Then Xiao Qiao."

Master Jiu.

"No.

Change it."

I still think it's a bit weird to have the same name as a beautiful woman.

"Shu'er" Master Jiu said and stuck a hairpin on my head: "That's what I called it."

Then he walked to his seat and started eating.

While eating, he said, "It's so delicious."

I touched the hairpin and felt a little grateful to Master Jiu.

Although now everyone is still speaking at the door.

However, as a girl, these small actions can easily make me feel satisfied.

However, sleeping at night is still a problem, and Master Jiu is always dishonest.

Either move his arms or his legs "Ah."

I couldn't help shouting loudly, opened the door and walked out and said, "I can't help it anymore, we have to paint another bed."

"Hey, let me sleep with you at my own expense, okay?

Why are you still so aggrieved?"

Master Jiu said with a serious face.

"Okay, okay, I won't take advantage of you.

I will make a bed myself."

I chopped my feet frantically.

Then get ready to go out.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

Master Jiu shouted.

"I'm going to buy wood to make a bed."

I walked irrationally.

Master Jiu ran over and said, "I'm going to cut down the trees.

You forgot, we still have to save money to live in a better house."

Seeing Master Jiu's gentle look, I suddenly felt that I was too impulsive.

Why spend money when you can spend nothing?

"Okay, you go chop down the trees and I'll cook."

Then I walked back.

It's been a while, and Master Jiu hasn't come back yet.

I took the needle and embroidered the pattern: If this sachet sells well, I can cooperate with Shilan and earn some money to support my family.

I'm really smart, and I can tell you have a business acumen.

I was immersed in self-indulgence, and suddenly I felt someone moving in front of me.

I looked up and saw that it was the Eighth Master, the Tenth Master, and the Fourteenth Master.

I stood up and shouted softly: "Eighth Master, Tenth Master, Fourteenth Master."

I especially didn't want to see the Fourteenth Master because his words were too hurtful.

"Shu Qiao, where is the ninth brother?"

Master Ba asked gently.

"He went out to chop down trees.

He should be back soon.

You guys sit down first."

I hurriedly went to get a bowl, poured some water and said, "My house is simple and I don't have a teacup, I just have a bowl.

Drink it if you don't mind."

"Don't dislike it, don't dislike it."

Master Shi held the bowl and drank.

The Fourteenth Master looked around and said, "Does the Ninth Brother have any work now?"

"He is now working as a martial arts master for others, and he can get back five taels of silver every month."

I said.

"It's okay.

I can at least live on with a job."

Mr.

Ba.

As soon as I see the Eighth Master, I will think of what happened in the past.

When I see the Fourteenth Master, I will also think of what happened in the past.

The Fourteenth Master's cruel words to me hurt myself, so I just said indifferently: "You guys Sit down first, I’ll go find Ah Jiu.”

I walked out, "Ajiu," the Fourteenth Master said in confusion, "This title is too intimate."

The Eighth Master and the Tenth Master smiled, and the Eighth Master said: "That's good.

The Ninth Brother can still have her unwavering companionship when he is at his lowest, which proves that Shu Qiao is an unworldly person, and also proves that the Ninth Brother was originally It’s not without consequences, maybe it’s a good opportunity for them to get reacquainted.”

I lowered my head and walked out, "Why are you out?

Could it be that you sensed my arrival and came to pick me up."

Master Jiu joked.

"You are becoming more glib now."

I said in a low voice.

Master Jiu saw that I was in a bad mood and asked, "What's wrong?"

"You go into the house, someone is waiting for you."

I said and turned around and left.

Master Jiu followed behind.

Before I even entered the door, I saw that I had brought Master Nine back.

I saw Master Eight, Master Ten, and Master Fourteen.

Master Nine immediately threw down the wood and shouted: "Brother Eight, Brother Ten, Brother Fourteen, why are you here again?"

Before Master Eight and the others could speak, Master Nine turned to Shu Qiao and said, "Shu'er, serve some more rice for Brother Eight.

Brother Ten and Brother Fourteen will put it on the table."

I walked in, took a deep breath, and placed the rice in front of them.

Then I took the covered bowl away.

I didn't want to stay any longer, thinking: These brothers must have something to discuss.

I said, "I'm going to do the laundry first."

Just as I was about to leave, my hand was held tightly.

Master Jiu said, "Eat first.

If you don't eat, you won't have the energy to wash clothes."

I was still hesitating, but Master Shi also stood up and said, "That's right.

Shu Qiao, sit down and eat first.

We haven't seen each other for a long time.

We can chat."

Now that they say so.

I couldn't refuse, so I sat down.

Master Jiu brought them vegetables and meat slices and said, "Try it, it's delicious."

Seeing Master Jiu eating so deliciously, Master Eight, Master Ten, and Master Fourteen all felt that they were a little rude.

"Brother Ninth.

Is this all you can eat now?"

Brother Ten asked.

Master Jiu picked up a green vegetable and said, "This is the most delicious meal I have ever eaten."

He put it in his mouth and it tasted particularly delicious.

I was so happy to see Master Jiu eating so deliciously.

It finally allowed me to regain some face in front of them.

In order to save face, the eighth master also picked up some food and ate a little, but the fourteenth master and the tenth master could not move their chopsticks.

In order to facilitate the conversation between them, I found an excuse to wash clothes in the small stream over there.

"Ninth brother, it seems that you are living a good life now.

What you did last time worried us to death."

Ba Ye said with a smile.

"That's right, Brother Ninth, you used to be the most picky about food, but now you are living like this and still so happy.

It seems that Shu Qiao has really helped you a lot."

Master Shi said happily while looking around.

"Don't worry, you all.

I used to be too weak in my heart.

I always felt that I should be aloof and could not give up my identity and condescend to others.

However, since I slowly saw that Shu'er was constantly striving for self-improvement and self-reliance, she has always been tolerant and indulgent towards me.

Yes, no matter how cold I am , no matter how hungry she is, she doesn’t let me suffer or scold me.

Suddenly, I feel that I have become a little woman who needs to be taken care of.

I feel very ashamed and ashamed, so I feel that it is my turn to take care of her.”

Jiuye spoke very affectionately and deeply, as if he had fallen in love with a woman for the first time.

"It seems that Ninth Brother has really fallen in love this time."

Master Fourteen joked.

Brother Jiu smiled and said, "By the way, aren't you afraid that Huang Ama will get suspicious when you come here?"

"You are like this, and we still come to see you.

Isn't it a sign of deep brotherhood?"

Although the eighth master said this, the more important reason is that the ninth master is his brother.

In fact, the ninth master also understands.

"Yes, and you didn't give me any help.

I believe Huang Ama can see it."

Jiu Ye laughed at himself.

"So Ninth Brother is blaming us for not bringing you a gift."

The Fourteenth Master deliberately joked.

"Brother Ninth, even if you want us to help you now, we don't dare to risk disobeying the imperial edict.

We'll wait until you come back and we'll give you something good."

Master Ten grinned, as if he was coquettishly coquettish.

"Okay, there's nothing big going on in Beijing recently, right?"

Master Jiu finally asked about the things they had often discussed before.

The eighth master raised his hand and said, "Ninth brother, don't worry about these things.

As long as we are here, you should behave well and try to return to Beijing early."

"Okay."

Master Jiu agreed readily, walked to the wood and said, "Help cut the wood, I want to make a new bed."

"By the way, speaking of this bed, Ninth Brother, how do you and Shu Qiao sleep normally?"

Tenth Master asked deliberately.

Master Jiu smiled evilly: "It's a bed, how do you want to sleep on it?"

"Haha."

The Fourteenth Master laughed extra loudly: "We all understand."

Master Ten and Master Eight were also enjoying themselves secretly.

Master Jiu was swinging his ax and shouting: "Brother Eight, Brother Ten, Brother Fourteen, come here and help."

"Here we come."

The Tenth Master happily ran over, followed closely by the Eighth Master and the Fourteenth Master
