Chapter 59 The Stalking Magpie
As for the Qiao family, the third aunt said it well, in the end it is the elder.
Many things are inconvenient for even Fangzhou to do. She originally wanted to ask Grandma San to take care of her on weekdays, otherwise, although it was all trivial and trivial things, she didn't have the energy to argue with Qiao Shi.
If you care about it, you will appear too stingy, and juniors don’t do this;
Tasting the sweetness, Uncle Li's family and Lian Fangzhou became more motivated, and they ran to the mountain again the next morning.
Three-hole charcoal kilns can be dug in that area, and by then there will be four-hole charcoal kilns, and a family can earn four or five taels of silver after burning one kiln! Burn it a few times, and it's almost enough for a year's cost!
On this day, Lian Ze, A Jian, Li Shu, and Li Sanhe dug a new kiln, while Aunt Zhang and Lian Fangzhou went to chop wood and charcoal.
Because the first time is fresh and the second time is cooked, and more importantly, there are rich rewards beckoning ahead, and three new kilns are freshly baked in one and a half days! Then a few men joined in chopping charcoal.
There are trees on the mountain, and in two and a half days, not only have the charcoal for the kiln been cut, but also enough firewood for the kiln.
A Jian, Lian Fangzhou, Uncle Li, and Lian Ze set up the kiln and set it on fire, while Aunt Zhang and the others still went to chop charcoal and search for wood—the kiln was still ready for use after it was fired!
Besides, the magpie had followed Zhao Rujun's order, and after having breakfast the next day, he followed the address from the people below and rushed to Dafang Village in a horse-drawn carriage.
It's a pity that A Jian and Lian Fangzhou were busy earning money for the New Year. They went into the mountains early in the morning, and the magpies fluttered.
Magpies are not surprised by this: How can a countryman stay at home instead of going out to work during the day? Thank goodness she was prepared!
Magpie took out a big red rectangular invitation from her arms and gave it to Grandma Sangu, asking her to pass it on to Ah Jian, saying that she would come back tomorrow.
After receiving the invitation, you have to entertain the guests, otherwise it is impolite! The magpie praised himself for being smart in his heart, and walked away triumphantly.
But she forgot that this post was put down by herself, but not what Ah Jian was willing to accept.
Besides, how did the country folks know these customs? Even Fangzhou is not a native, so she doesn't know!
As a result, the magpie's salutation was splendidly ignored.
Ajian frowned and pushed it to Lian Fangzhou: "Come and go!"
Even Fangzhou also said: "Why are the people of the Zhao family so domineering! It's not good if you don't go! Let's leave her alone, what to do tomorrow!"
Ajian was convinced.
When the magpie came the next day, before she could speak, the third aunt returned the greeting card to her, and said with a look of contempt, "This thing looks pretty, but it's useless. It's too hard to wipe your butt, take it back! Our family doesn't support idlers, Ah Jian has gone to work! You, go back!"
Magpie was stunned, holding the invitation from the third aunt's grandmother in her hand.
When she came back to her senses, she stared at the third aunt and the first sentence was: "I am from the Zhao family in the county!"
The third aunt is a disadvantaged master, her eyes are bigger than her: "I know, you said it!"
As he spoke, he pouted, what happened in the city? Great in town? What the hell are you doing in our country?
The magpie was stunned for a moment, and after thinking about it, he also laughed angrily at himself: Yes, the country people know some etiquette, but he looked up to them, and ended up winking at the blind! This old woman must have never been to the city in her whole life, and she is excusable if she doesn't know the Zhao family!
The magpie glanced at the third aunt's grandmother coldly, and said something sarcastic and sarcastic when she opened her mouth. After thinking about Ajian's work in this house, she couldn't quarrel with people if she wanted to take people away. What should I do if I let people go?
Even if there is something to say, I have to wait until Ah Jian is hired away!
So the magpie smiled reservedly and turned away.
The next evening, the magpie came again.
The third aunt saw that she was not in a good mood and said, "I said are you still haunted? What do you think about our poor family? It's worth coming here twice or three times!"
Magpie also has a head and face by Zhao Rujun's side, and often claims to be "more expensive than ordinary ladies." After hearing what the third aunt said, and thinking that she was here for Ajian, she couldn't help blushing and biting. The lips glared at the third aunt's grandmother.
Where is the third aunt afraid of her? Rolling his eyes, he waved his hand impatiently: "Let's go! Don't stop here, I'm going to sweep the floor! If you stain your skirt later, don't blame me!"
The magpie glanced at the clean ground, couldn't help but get angry, and said annoyed: "I said you are a country woman, how did you talk!"
"Yo, which eldest lady is this? She came to show off in front of my country woman!" The third aunt raised her voice and took the bamboo broom from under the porch.
The magpie wanted to attack but couldn't, so it had to retreat to the outside of the yard angrily, but still stood there and refused to go.
Now the third aunt was really puzzled, she craned her neck to look at her, and murmured, "This girl shouldn't be a devil..." She muttered a few words and didn't bother to pay attention to her.
Seeing that the sun was about to set, but she hadn't seen anyone come back, the magpie couldn't help but feel a little anxious, and subconsciously rubbed the mud under her feet: She still has to rush back to the county, and if it gets dark, the carriage will not. Good to go!
Seeing that the last ray of afterglow on the horizon disappeared, the magpie stomped its feet and had to get on the carriage and return to the original road.
The next day, she learned to be good, and as soon as it was dawn, she urged the driver to drive to Dafang Village. The coachman accompanied her to go out three times and two times, and he was also a little unhappy. The meaning of the words: I only serve you, the magpie girl, should I serve the master and the lady?
The magpie stared at him and snorted coldly, and said, "I won't let you run in vain on this trip today! Is thirty dollars enough? Besides, this is the mission given by the lady. If you have the ability, don't go!" After saying that, he turned around and got into the carriage.
The Zhao family didn't only use this carriage, how could they delay the master and the lady from going out? She knew that the driver was disgusted with following her for these few trips without being rewarded.
Seeing her attitude, the driver was also angry, and for the sake of thirty dollars, he threw his whip and drove the car away, mumbling, "Miss Qianjin, it's only a few dollars for a few days' work. It's nice to talk..."
The magpie turned pale with anger, glared fiercely in the carriage through the curtain, and vowed to get things done today.
When the magpie came to Lian's house, even the family hadn't gone out, but through the mouth of the third aunt, no one didn't know that the magpie ran here every day.
Seeing her coming early in the morning, Lian Fangzhou was a little speechless: The Lian family is so short of people, why do you have to hire Jane? I've never heard of an employer doing such a thing, even a headhunting company doesn't bring such a stalker, right?
"You better make it clear to her! I don't know if she bothers me with this trip, I'm tired just looking at it!" Lian Fangzhou glanced at Ajian.
