Chapter 045 Returning the Deed
The next morning, Lu Feili came on time. He changed into a light purple robe and a black foxball coat, which was extremely noble.
Each company packed the prepared gloves in cloth and came to Zhou's house, waiting for Junye to pay the bill.
“This is what I did at home.”
Ji Wan took the lead in handing him the gloves he made, "a total of 122 pairs."
Lu Feili glanced at her increasingly rosy face. This girl looked much better and rounder, but she couldn't grow up in a day or two.
"Why is there no unified quantity?"
Ji Wan was stunned and pursed her lips and said nothing.
She wanted to count the number from door to door, but unfortunately some people are narrow-minded and have little temper, fearing that they would be greedy for other people's handicraft fees and had to pay for it themselves. Since this is the case, she was too lazy to spend this effort. It would be better to make more ham and sausages to sell for money with this time.
Lu Feili took her expression in his eyes, and understood in his heart, and looked at others.
His handsome and beautiful appearance, and his fairy-like appearance was not as good as a god. These rural women didn't feel blushing when they saw it, let alone those unmarried girls, all of whom were blushing and their eyes were blurred, and they wished they could dig out their eyes and put them on him.
"All count it?"
His tone was lazy and careless, sweeping across everyone, with his own dignity.
The Wu family, who was at the forefront, took a step forward and said, "General, this is my family, with a total of 286 deputy."
Lu Feili nodded and asked the casual guards to count it again, and then paid the money. A pair of gloves cost five cents, and two hundred and eighty-six pairs cost 1,430 cents.
The women behind him saw the stack of copper coins and the piece of silver, their eyes were shining, and they hurriedly brought their own gloves to the front.
"General, my family made 108 pairs of gloves."
"My family's fifty-six mates..."
"My family has two hundred and two mates."
"This is from my family, there are 79 pairs in total."
If there are more women in the family, they will do more. If there are fewer women, they will do less. In fact, women in the countryside have very little free time. They have to serve their mother-in-law and take care of their children or grandchildren, and they have to burn fire, cook, wash clothes and chop firewood. Many people light oil lamps at night to do handicraft work.
There are more than 50 female families in the Yi Village who can make gloves, and there are a total of 3,520 pairs, totaling 17 taels and 60 coins of silver. The Feng family is the one who gets the most.
Ji Wan had said she didn't need wages, and she did business, so she had limited time and didn't make many gloves.
After the last family handed over the gloves and got new lint, she went into the house to take out the sausages that had been prepared in sight.
"General, this is the sausage made by the civilian girl a few days ago. If Meng Buqi is in charge, please accept it. It is considered to repay your care for the civilian girl's family."
Lu Feili's eyes passed by the red sausages, then fell on her face, and the corners of her mouth rose slightly.
"That's all you deserve, no thanks."
"The young lady is talking about those two native dogs." Ji Wan pointed to the little black and white that she brought out by her younger brother and sister. "I will not receive any reward without merit. The young lady knew that the general was afraid that the general would look down on such common things as gold and silver. The general should have never eaten this sausage, so he gave it to the general to show his gratitude. And..."
She took out two pieces of paper from her arms, "We cannot ask for this deed and silver note, please take it back."
Lu Feili was slightly surprised and smiled and said, "Didn't I say that you have cured your mother's stubborn disease. This is a thank you gift and there is no need to return it."
Ji Wan shook her head and insisted: "The honor that the family of a family receives today is because of the general's care. Besides, the girl said that she would not receive medical treatment for others." After a pause, she continued: "This deed may be insignificant to the general, but it is more important than Mount Tai. Perhaps in the eyes of the general, the family of a family of a family of a family of a family of a person who is poor and destitute really requires gold, silver, wealth, house deeds, land deeds, which is true. But the girl cannot accept the gifts of the general for granted for grants for granted by the general. We cannot ask for things that are not worthy of work. The girl cannot let her younger brothers and sisters learn to enjoy the fruits of their children since childhood."
This is not a noble person. Ji Wan really feels that the thank-you gift given by the other party is too heavy. She can earn the house and fields with her own hands.
Lu Feili looked her up and down again, and the little girl was quite strong.
He smiled and took the deed and silver notes, and took the sausages over, "It's good to collect things that you get for free once or twice."
Ji Wan was stunned.
Lu Feili handed the sausage to the guard behind him, looked at Zhou, and his smile faded.
"Does Madam still insist on me?"
Zhou's face was light, "The past is like clouds and smoke. The general's kindness is the heart of the people."
Lu Feili is indecent.
Zhou hesitated for a while and asked tentatively: "I don't know if the general respects his surname? Why did he take care of the family of the people? "
Lu Feili pondered for a while, "Duke Anguo, Lu's mansion, went three times, and his name was Feili. He was fortunate that Demeng ordered his ancestors to teach the Tao."
Zhou was stunned.
"Your home affairs, my younger generation should not have intervened. It was just because he was assassinated in the north that day when he was inspected by the north, and he accidentally entered Xiushan. He met Ling Yan. He saw that he was holding a crossbow and mistakenly thought he was a bandit, so he investigated privately and hoped that his wife would forgive him."
Lu Feili bowed down to Zhou in a humble manner and gave a junior greeting.
Zhou was quite flattered and subconsciously took a step back.
"Young Master is just a misunderstanding. And the young master helped him a lot, and the family of the people is grateful for it. How dare you blame me?" She paused and asked hesitantly: "Last time the family of the people beat drums and complained about the injustice of Yudeng County, was it also the young master who secretly helped me?"
Lu Feili's tone was faint, "Mr. Xu is a parent official, so it is appropriate to make decisions for the people."
There is no intention of repaying gratitude.
"Since the lady has her own difficulties, I will no longer force her and say goodbye first."
Lu Feili nodded politely, turned around the carriage, the curtain fell, the carriage turned around, and slowly left.
It was cold today, and everyone got their wages and went home. Only the Feng family and Miao family next door were secretly paying attention to the movements of the Zhou family. After a distance, they couldn't hear what they said. Seeing that the young general left, the Zhou family and the son were nothing unusual, they felt relieved.
Ji Wan looked at her mother and guessed from her deep eyebrows that there would be something unspeakable when her mother was wandering here. For this reason, she specifically reminded her younger brothers and sisters not to mention her grandfather's family in front of her mother. Ji Rong nodded sensiblely. Ji Heng was still young and didn't have much knowledge, but he listened to his sister very much and nodded in response.
In the countryside, killing pigs is also a big deal.
The Zhou family killed two pigs at once, and the villagers followed them to watch.
"The Ji family used to kill a pig every year, and both were sold for money. Now the family is separated, and Zhou actually killed two pigs at once. How much bacon is there to make?"
"Their family has a small population. Can you finish killing two pigs?"
"Don't worry about having money."
"Zhou is really blessed. He has such a capable daughter and will never worry about the rest of his life."
"That's right? Her family sells pancakes every day. I heard that it costs ten cents per person, and it can sell one or two taels of silver every day."
"So many?"
"A month is thirty taels, my god..."
Ji Rong heard the comments in his ears, curled his lips, and whispered: "These people knew that they were envious and jealous. My sister got up early in the morning to make pancakes and fruits for my elder brother to sell them in the town. After lunch, I had to make sausages and sausages. After lunch, I had to make ham sausages, and the thin and crispy ones, and I had to clean the pig's intestines at night... I could sweat hot and sweat in the middle of winter. They just saw us making money, so why didn't they think about how hard my sister worked? One tael of silver had to be removed, so how could they say so much?"
