Chapter 747: I miss my son

Chapter 747 I miss my son

The steamed bun fell, Xiduo wanted to pick it up, but her hand was shaking, she didn't dare to reach out, her body trembled.

Unexpectedly, the steward only said in a warm voice: "Pick it up, if it's dirty, throw it in the swill bucket over there, if it's not dirty, you can continue to eat, don't waste it."

Said to everyone in the cafeteria: "You must know that food is hard to come by, so don't waste it. Many people outside still don't have enough to eat."

"Yes." Everyone in the cafeteria agreed.

Xiduo also hurriedly picked up the half steamed bun that fell on the ground, patted it, and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that it was not dirty.

Turning her head quietly, seeing that the manager was still looking at her, she shrank back in fright.

The supervisor smiled, "The cafeteria provides you with a meal at noon to keep you full, so as not to delay your afternoon work. Although you are full, you are not allowed to take it with you."

Xiduo trembled in fright, the person in charge must have found out.

"Steward, I don't dare anymore." She pulled her hands into her arms.

"Don't do this next time." The stewardess didn't say anything to her.

Turning around, I saw someone in the cafeteria taking out steamed buns like Xiduo, and said earnestly: "I know you are thinking about your family members outside, and wanting to let them have a bite too. But if you don't have enough to eat, it will affect your afternoon work, If you made a mistake and got fired, wouldn't you be more sorry for the expectations of your family? If you really think about your family, you should work hard, and getting more subsidies from the family is better than anything else."

"Yes, we are in charge."

Xiduo sat back on the stool, looked at the steamed buns in the rice bowl, and felt a little regretful that grandma and younger brother could not eat such fine grains.

But when she gets her wages and goes home, she will definitely buy such big white steamed buns for Grandma! No, she wants to cut meat for grandma and brother!

If you can’t afford to cut a catty of meat, cut half a catty. Be sure to let grandma and younger brother eat meat.

Xiduo secretly swears, chewing on the steamed bun in her hand, feeling that she has never eaten such a delicious steamed bun, it is so delicious.

At the entrance of the cafeteria, Huo Xi turned and left.

"Hey, it's worse than I was before. Although my stepmother treats me badly, I have money secretly left by my grandfather. If I'm hungry, I can secretly go to the town to buy delicious food." Vanilla was a little emotional.

It is not easy at home when there is little autumn frost and winter snow, but it is much better than people like Xiduo. Also sighed.

"Madam, let's help them."

"Madam gave them work, isn't she helping them?"

Huo Xi didn't speak. Sitting in the yard reserved for her by the workshop, I asked for paper and made some plans, and explained them in time.

In the afternoon, the sun was setting, and the bell of the workshop was ringing.

Xiduo and the others knew that it was time to get off work. I was overjoyed. After cleaning his hands, he took off the scarf and put it in his arms, and was about to go out when he was stopped by the supervisor.

"Your wages for today have already been calculated. My wife said that each of your families has difficulties. You are allowed to settle the wages on the same day. If you want to get wages on the day, you can come and get them, or you can not get them and get them together at the end of the month."

Everyone was stunned for a moment, but when they realized it, they couldn't help but be overjoyed. The footsteps moved towards the steward, but no one dared to speak first.

"Don't get any?"

"Lead! We lead!" Qi Qi said.

The steward nodded, opened the notebook and began to roll the roll, another steward next to him brought out a box, half of the box of copper plates, which made Xiduo and the others' eyes shine.

"... Xiduo, thirty-two texts..."

When Xiduo heard this, she couldn't believe it, she has thirty-two characters! There are more people than just a few people!

Endured his excitement and walked towards the manager.

The manager looked at her with a smile, and praised a few words: "You performed well today, you did your work carefully, and the petals were less damaged. Keep it up tomorrow."

"Yes, thank you steward!"

Close it tightly, stuff it into your arms, and hold your chest tightly with one hand, for fear of flying away.

I just want to go back to my home right away and show Grandma that she earned thirty-two coins today! That's more than Grandma earns in a day. My eyes are swollen, I want to cry.

Grandma Zhi was busy with her grandson in the field for a long time today, absent-minded, thinking about her granddaughter.

The granddaughter left her for the first time, alone outside. I don't know if she made a mistake or if she will be beaten by the manager. Do you have lunch at noon, and will you work on an empty stomach?

Although she believed in Mrs. Shizi, she was still uneasy.

When it was time to get off work, I took my grandson and waited early at the entrance of the alley. Together with other worried neighbors, they looked at the intersection together.

Until the carriage bell rang, "Come back, come back, they're back!"

Everyone ran over in unison, so that the carriage couldn't get in, and stopped at the entrance of the alley. Everyone in the carriage couldn't help jumping out of the carriage when they saw their family members...

"Grandma! Xiye!" Xiduo also jumped down.

"Have you been paid? Will you be paid today?"

"There are so many!"

Grandma Zhi listened to the shouts of the crowd, and looked at her granddaughter excitedly, "Grandma, I've earned my wages, I've earned my wages!" Xiduo said excitedly.

"Sister, how much do you earn?"

Xiduo leaned close to the two of them and whispered something in their ears. Grandma Zhi was taken aback for a moment, and then became very excited, "Really? Are there really so many?"

Seeing the granddaughter pulling the clothes on her chest and showing her the copper coins, her hands trembled excitedly, "Let's go, let's go home, Grandma made you dinner, let's go home and eat!" The two grandchildren strode home.

"...The steamed buns at noon are delicious. I wanted to bring them back to you secretly, but the manager won't let me..."

"You don't need to bring it, you don't need to bring it, there is food at home, as long as you are full."

"I'm full! The meal is enough, there are two dishes, and meat, a lot of oil..."

"Sister, is it really oily?"

"Really, sister won't lie to you."

"Alright..." Granny Zhi held her granddaughter's hand tightly.

Cuihuang Courtyard, Huo Xi looked through the ledger to see the wages paid to the workers by the workshop today.

"Ma'am, with this calculation, most people can get more than one tael a month." Vanilla flicked the beads beside her.

"Now the workshop has sixty-five craftsmen from all over the place, plus the stewards, masters from all over the place, and servants from Caiyun Courtyard. The monthly wages will be quite a lot. I don't know when I will be able to pay back."

It cost two thousand taels to buy that yard. Although the same house was much cheaper than the capital, Qiu Shuang and the others only saw the money flowing out of his wife.

"The craftsman only has a few dollars, but the masters in the workshop are more expensive. The master chef in the sauce room Madam finds will pay thirty taels a month. Tsk..." Vanilla felt her teeth were sore.

Mother Ma laughed at her: "Why don't you tell me how much your Yanzhi's father earns in a month? Also, the money that Yanzhi's father has saved for so many years has been given to you. You have also seen rich people, and you still feel sorry for these few." Copper plate?"

"One size fits all." Vanilla touched her nose.

I wonder if Father Rouge's monthly wages are really too much, "Madam, why don't you pay so much for Zhufeng's wages, it's okay if you don't. Anyway, we have food and housing every month, and the mansion also helps us to support us. Rouge doesn’t cost a lot of money.”

Huo Xi looked at her with a smile: "You are rich and powerful, and you are not treating money as money. You can make decisions for your family."

"Of course I can be his master." Vanilla looked proud.

Huo Xi smiled and said: "Wind is worth the price. I was worried that if he ran away, where would I find a guard with such skills."

"With Rouge and I around, he dare not run away."

Huo Xi just laughed, "Don't think about saving money for your wife and me. Let's take a long-term view. What kind of business can't be invested in the early stage? When things are made, we can get back the money soon."

Thinking of everyone mentioning Rouge, I wonder what happened to Xiao Yuer. Thinking of his son, Huo Xi's heart ached.
