When Su Hao asked, Lu Xiuer looked a little proud, and she began to tell Su Hao about her earning money.

It turned out that after Su Hao left, Yang Gendi came from the countryside to the city. With her mother doing housework, Lu Xiu'er was completely idle. She ran around the city every day, and felt fresh in everything she saw and felt very happy.

A few days later, Yang Gendi began to talk to her about family income and expenditure, saying that the land in the countryside has been planted by others, and the income has dropped sharply, while Su Hao worked as a job in the county government, and he didn't know how much money he could earn. The family lived in the big house, and the city's firewood, rice, oil and salt were expensive. If this continues, the little money that the county magistrate rewarded before would probably not last long.

After hearing what his mother said, Lu Xiu'er became nervous. She went to Wu Da's wife Feng and asked her about how to live in the city. Feng told her that the income of the servants in the county government is only enough to make ends meet. If she wants to raise children, she will also have school, exams, etc., she will be very nervous if she earns this amount of income.

Besides, Su Hao’s house is still rented now. If you want to settle down in the county town, buying a house is an indispensable thing. However, the housing prices are so expensive now. In a third-tier city like Fengcheng, the housing prices are almost as high as those in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou...

Under Feng's instigation, after detailed market research, Lu Xiuer finally found a way to make money for herself, which was to go to the street to sell tea eggs.

Every day, she asked Yang Gendi to buy a hundred eggs from the street, process them into tea eggs using rural technology, and then pick them up on the street to be sold. Although Lu Xiuer had not learned the four calculations, she could calculate it based on her instinct that such a business could make money, and it should be no problem to earn seventy or eighty cents a day.

Yang Gendi is old and has a thin-skinned face, so she dare not go to the street to hawk. Lu Xiu'er has been used to being crazy since she was a child. Although she was a little timid at the beginning, she became calm after a day or two. She was able to deal with it with it with ease whether she was shouting on the street or bargaining with customers. She is young and beautiful, lively and cute. Many people are willing to buy her tea eggs. As a result, the business is excellent, and she has compared several colleagues on the street who have been selling tea eggs for a long time.

"Uh... I really can't tell that you still have the ability to do business." Su Hao laughed in silence.

"Brother, will I lose face if I go to the street to sell tea eggs?" Lu Xiu'er asked carefully, "Sometimes when I encounter a servant coming to drive people away, I don't dare to say that my brother is also from the county government."

Su Hao said: "It doesn't matter if you don't have face or not? It's a very glorious thing to get rich through labor. The Ming Dynasty did not seem to stipulate that the families of civil servants cannot do business, so there is no taboo. If there are any servants who dare to be unable to get along with you in the future, you will say that your brother is Su Hao, which will definitely work."

"Really?" Lu Xiu'er laughed. When she heard that Su Hao seemed to support her selling tea eggs, she felt relieved and said too much: "Brother, you don't know that the money of the city people is easy to make. One egg costs 2 cents, as well as firewood, salt, soy sauce, tea, etc., is at most 1 cent. The total amount is less than 3 cents, but I took it out and sold it for 5 cents, and people bought it, but I usually sell it for 4 cents..."

Su Hao fell asleep unknowingly as his sister talked about his business. Lu Xiu'er was willing to sell tea eggs, but he didn't object. This was actually a kind of fun for the little girl. Instead of letting her stay at home unhappy every day, it would be better to let her do something she loves to do. As for how much money she could make, Su Hao didn't care. When he was in the countryside, he had already thought about it and had to do some business after returning to the city. However, for him, the most important thing is to sleep.

Su Hao slept until he was having supper before he woke up. His mother Yang Gendi really cooked a large table of dishes, but only Su Hao, Deng Kui and Hao Tong were the only ones who served the table to eat.

"Mom, you come to the table to eat too?" Su Hao advised. He saw his mother keeping a few small dishes in the kitchen, and guessed that she must be hiding in the kitchen to eat.

"No need, I'll eat in the kitchen. You young people drink and chat together, don't worry about me, the old woman." Yang Gendi said.

"Uh...whether Xiu'er?" Su Hao asked again.

Yang Gendi said: "Xiu'er has a friend and is staying in her room. She asked me to deliver the food to them."

"What?" Su Hao was very curious, "This crazy girl, just a few days after coming to the county town, she actually made friends with her friends? Could it be Sister Wu, right?"

Yang Gendi said: "It's not Mrs. Wu, but two young girls. I have been to the house several times. I asked Xiu'er who they were, and she said they wouldn't let them say it. However, these two people looked like girls from good families."

"No, I have to go upstairs." Su Hao said, and walked upstairs.

When he arrived outside Lu Xiu'er's room, Su Hao coughed and shouted, "Xiu'er, it's time to eat. Do you want to take your friends to have a meal?"

The door opened, and Lu Xiuer responded. She smiled and said to Su Hao: "Brother, we are all girls, so it's not appropriate to sit with you for dinner. By the way, brother, do you know who is in my room?"

Lu Xiu'er's last sentence was to lower her voice, obviously she didn't want the people in the room to hear it.

Su Hao asked, "Who is here? He's here, why are you still hiding your head and tail?"

Before Lu Xiu'er could say anything, she saw a flash of dress and a girl with a happy face walked out of the room. She bowed slightly to Su Hao and said, "Young Master Su is back? The little girl is polite here."

Su Hao looked closely and couldn't help laughing. However, he only laughed twice, then quickly restrained himself and bowed and said, "It turns out it's Miss Han, the student is rude."

"You... know each other?" Lu Xiuer looked at her brother, then at Han Qian, and asked strangely.

It turned out that neither Su Hao nor Han Qian told Lu Xiuer about their meeting. As for the incident where Han Qian and Su Hao went down the well together, Han Qian would not be even more ostentatious.

After returning to the city from Caijia Village, Han Qian couldn't help but feel her face and heartbeat whenever she thought of sitting in the same hanging basket with Su Hao and staying alone in the deep well. After hesitation, she finally took Honglian and ran to Su Hao's house to chat with Lu Xiu'er, hoping that she could hear some anecdotes about Su Hao's past and comfort her heart. Every time she came, she would inevitably meet Yang Gendi. She was embarrassed to explain her identity and did not let Lu Xiu'er reveal her identity. So Yang Gendi only knew that Han Qian was Lu Xiu'er's friend, but she didn't know that she was actually the daughter of the magistrate's family.

Today, when Han Qian heard in the county government that the well digging team had returned, she could no longer sit still. She said to her parents that she went out to play with her female companion, and then came to Su Hao's house with Honglian. When she saw Lu Xiu'er, she felt embarrassed to say that she was visiting Su Hao, and she just said that she missed Lu Xiu'er and wanted to have family chats with her.

Su Hao was sleeping darkly, which made Han Qian have to say saliva with Lu Xiuer over and over again until she was about to eat. Before Su Hao appeared, Han Qian stayed with shamelessness, saying that she wanted to try the food at Lu Xiuer's house.

Fortunately, Su Hao came up to take a look after hearing the news, otherwise Han Qian would not know what excuse to see Su Hao.

"When I was in the county government office, I met Miss Han twice, so I met him, haha, haha." Su Hao hid it very smartly, he was afraid that Han Qian would be too thin and could not hide her face.

Han Qian also said, "Xiu'er, I have met Mr. Su in the county government. My father admires Mr. Su very much. I didn't expect Mr. Su to be so approachable at home."

Pretend, just keep pretending! Su Hao smiled in his heart at Han Qian's hypocrisy. Since Lu Xiu'er's guest was Han Qian's master and servant, he naturally couldn't invite them down to have dinner with Deng Kui and others. After everyone made some polite words, Su Hao planned to say goodbye and go downstairs, but Han Qian stopped him:

"By the way, Mr. Su, a month ago, the Cheng siblings and brothers came to the county government to find my father, saying that you entrusted them with the help of my father to arrange a place to make a living for them. Because my father was busy with official duties, the little girl made some arrangements for him for the Cheng siblings and brothers, and now I will inform the young master."

"Yeah, that's the case." Su Hao replied with a gritty bullet, "The land of the Cheng brothers and sisters was occupied because of digging wells and had no life, so I dared to ask the magistrate to help arrange it. Unexpectedly, Miss Han would bother. I wonder where the Cheng brothers and sisters are now, and how can they live a good life?"

"The Cheng family lady, I found a cook for her in the county government office. She had a salary of one or five cents a month, and she lived in the county government office with those mothers. As for the Cheng family boy, I asked Master Fang to introduce him to Longguang Academy to go to school, but Teacher Wu said that he could only take in the young man temporarily. If the young man wanted to stay for a long time, you had to go and talk to him in person." Han Qian said.

"This unconscientious Wu Zhicheng!" Su Hao cursed with a smile. With Han Qian and Fang Mengjin as the introducer, Wu Zhicheng had no reason not to accept Cheng Dong. The academy was a place with government subsidies, and he could save Cheng Dong's rations anywhere. Wu Zhicheng said this clearly because he wanted to tell Su Hao that this was a favor he sold to Su Hao, and his purpose was naturally to hope that Su Hao could fully understand the Western scientific and technological knowledge he had mastered.

"After I go to the county government tomorrow to deliver the mission to Lord Han, I will go to the academy to find this shameless old man. I would like to thank Miss Han for helping the Cheng family for his help."

"Young Master Su digs a well for the people and works hard and makes great contributions. It is really an honor for a young woman to do some small things for Youth Master Su." Han Qian said softly.
