Chapter 30 Wages
Xu Chen was also tactful and had collected the money. Isn’t it a bit annoying to stay in the inn? Drinking the cold tea, lifting his feet and walking out.
Not long after walking out of Fulai Inn, Xu Chen opened the small bag that Manager Li had just given him, and he saw, "Oh, three taels of silver, it's so grand! You must know that a liter of rice is only ten cents now. According to the expenses of Huang Dashan's family, three taels of silver is more than three years longer.
Xu Chen shook his head and stuffed the silver back into his arms.
On the way, Xu Chen looked around and saw others saying that Fengqi Town is a very remote town, and he didn't know what a big city looks like. He really wanted to go and see it.
After walking around bored for half an hour, I felt bored and felt bored, so Xu Chen asked back home.
After returning to Xiao Mansion, Xu Chen still had nothing to do, so he had to ride a horse to polish the time. After sweating, he went back to the room to take a shower. Then he began to meditate and practice, and the day passed like this.
In the morning, a maid knocked on Xu Chen's door and whispered: "Young Master Xu."
Xu Chen replied: "What's the matter?"
"Someone asked for a meeting."
Someone wanted to see him early in the morning? Xu Chen frowned and stood up, opened the door and let the maid come in: "Who wants to see me?"
"Miss Lin's house."
Xu Chen couldn't help laughing when he heard this. It was not long before dawn, and Lin Miaomiao came quickly.
After washing up, Xu Chen went to the living room. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Lin Miaomiao sitting in a chair, holding her chin with her left hand and playing with her hair bored.
Lin Miaomiao's dress today is different from when he was walking on the mountain. Today, she is wearing a blue sleeved skirt with only the hem of the skirt to the knees and a pair of pony shoes under the wrapping skirt. The clothes are so cute with the petite Lin Miaomiao.
"Miaomiao Girl." Xu Chen called out.
Lin Miaomiao looked back and jumped up with joy. She only parted with Xu Chen last time. She didn't think about it day and night, but she often remembered Xu Chen's literary talent when she was in Qingfeng Pavilion and halfway up the mountain. Yesterday, Xiao Lian wrote a letter saying that Xu Chen would take her to see the girl Shiyin who is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting today. She was so happy that she couldn't sleep. I don't know if she was happy to see girl Shiyin or Xu Chen.
"Young Master Xu!" Lin Miaomiao smiled and leaned in front of Xu Chen.
"How is Miss Miaomiao doing after a few days?"
"Myongzi Chengxu is concerned, Miaomiao eats well and sleeps well." Lin Miaomiao responded cutely.
Xu Chen restrained the idea of touching Lin Miaomiao's head. This girl was so cute: "Why did you come so early today? I see that at this time, your sister Xiao hasn't even gotten up."
"It's okay, I came so early and mainly wanted to see you!"
"Ah?" Xu Chen thought he heard it wrong.
Lin Miaomiao blurted unconsciously, shy herself and blushed, and quickly explained: "No, no, I came so early mainly because I wanted to play with Mr. Xu! By the way, I will discuss the poetry life by the way! Yes, that's right!"
This girl won’t like her, right? Xu Chen suddenly realized that she was so charming? But Lin Miaomiao looks too young, isn’t it legal?
Xu Chen comforted Lin Miaomiao, who was blushing, and then invited her to the dining table and asked the maid to deliver breakfast.
Because his behavior just now was too embarrassing, Lin Miaomiao kept looking down at Xu Chen and didn't dare to look at Xu Chen, and Xu Chen didn't know how to treat this unpredictable girl movie.
At this moment, Xiao Lian came in from the side. When Xu Chen saw it, he quickly stood up and bowed: "Miss, morning."
Xiao Lian looked at Xu Chen silently and nodded. Xu Chen couldn't help but guess that Xiao Lian was really coming to that thing! His face was so abnormal!
After Xiao Lian called Xu Chen to sit down, he also sat down. Lin Miaomiao raised her head and looked at Sister Xiao with a smile and said nothing.
"I knew you would come early, so I asked someone to prepare your favorite osmanthus cake for you." Xiao Lian said with a smile.
The maid next to him also brought the osmanthus cake that had been prepared early to Lin Miaomiao. Lin Miaomiao said happily: "Sister Xiao understands me the best!"
Xiao Lian looked at Lin Miaomiao with a doting look, smiled and shook her head without saying anything. Xu Chen became suspicious of himself. Why does Xiao Lian look no different from usual?
"By the way, Miss." Xu Chen remembered something, took out the small purse given by Manager Li in his arms, and handed it over from the table: "This is a three tael of silver that Manager Li gave when he bribed me yesterday. Now he is confiscated!"
Xiao Lian couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this and said slowly: "Wouldn't you just keep this money?"
"How can this be done? This belongs to public property and cannot be kept!" Xu Chen smiled, quite satisfied with his actions.
"Okay." Xiao Lian took the purse and turned it over to the maid beside her: "I'll reward you."
"Thank you Miss!" The maid hurriedly thanked her happily.
Xu Chen was stunned by the side. According to the script, the young lady shouldn't praise her Bingjie Yuqing, and then rewarded me with the three taels of silver. Why did she give the money just now to someone else with an indifferent look on her face? Otherwise, Miss, you do it again, I will definitely not give the money.
Lin Miaomiao looked at it strangely and asked, "Is Mr. Xu helping the Xiao family now?"
Xu Chen came to his senses and nodded to Lin Miaomiao with a wry smile.
Lin Miaomiao blinked and asked with interest: "How much does the Xiao family pay? I'll see if I can afford Mr. Xu. Then please ask Mr. Xu to teach me poetry and couplets!"
When Xu Chen heard that his head was getting big, he quickly said, "I don't know how much I'm working, why don't you ask Mr. Xiao?"
"Sister Xiao, how much is Mr. Xu's salary?" Lin Miaomiao turned around and asked Xiao Lian.
"Twenty taels of one month." Xiao Lian said lightly.
"Hmm?!" Xu Chen was frightened by the salary for Xiao Lian. Can I have so much money?
"Wow, that's so high!" Lin Miaomiao was stunned, "I only cost five taels of silver every month..."
Then Lin Miaomiao looked at Xu Chen with a resentful look, and Xu Chen looked at Xiao Lian with an incredible look, while Xiao Lian was calmly eating breakfast without saying a word.
After Lin Miaomiao was full, she left the living room. It seemed that she had gone to the bathroom. Xu Chen also took the opportunity to ask Xiao Lian: "Miss, are you just saying that twenty-two a month true?"
"Of course it's fake." Xiao Lian responded.
Xu Chen was stunned.
Xiao Lian looked back at Xu Chen: "Why, you just want to go to the Lin Mansion to be a teacher for Miaomiao?"
"Of course not!" Xu Chen waved his hand quickly to deny, "I'm just a little curious."
Xiao Lian did not reply. Seeing her in such a state, Xu Chen fell into self-doubt again. What happened to Xiao Lian?
However, Xiao Lian would not give Xu Chen an answer. After using breakfast, Xiao Lian left early and said nothing to him.
On the way back to the living room, Lin Miaomiao also intercepted Xiao Lian. Xiao Lian took Lin Miaomiao back to his boudoir, while Xu Chen could only scratch his head and go back to his room, ready to go to Qingfeng Pavilion later.
