Chapter 237: Surprised
The family lost a lot of money because of Lin Yi's refusal to marry, so now she and her fifth brother have to drink porridge with everyone, and she really wants to make some money, and go to the town to buy big meat buns to eat when the time comes.
For this matter, Wu also felt a little guilty in her heart, she thought, anyway, this work of peeling pecans is calculated according to the weight of the pecans peeled out, so Lin Xiaofeng wants to peel it, let her come, it can be regarded as making up for the old Lin family.
Wu Shi groaned: "Xiaofeng, you came here, does your mother know?" ”
Lin Xiaofeng was afraid that the Wu family would not let her in, so she nodded hurriedly and said, "My mother knows, it was my mother who asked me to come over." “
Wu heard that it was the Li family who called her over, so he nodded and said, "Then let me tell you first, to do this work, it is calculated according to the weight of the green fruits peeled out, and a pound of green fruits is peeled out, which is a penny, you see, if you agree, come in with me." ”
Lin Xiaofeng nodded hurriedly and said, "I agree." ”
So, Wu took Lin Xiaofeng into the courtyard, brought her a bench from the hall, and took a pot for her to fill pecans.
Wu Shi took out a new pair of gloves, handed them to her, and said, "Put this glove on, and when you peel it, try not to let your fingers touch the water on this green skin." ”
Lin Xiaofeng nodded again and again, picked up a pecan and peeled it.
Lin Xiaofeng hasn't done any work since he was a child, and when he suddenly came to do this job, at the beginning, he didn't feel tired at all, but felt quite fun.
……
When Lin Yi came back, he saw at a glance that there was an extra person in the courtyard.
Seeing Lin Yi's eyes fall on Lin Xiaofeng's body, Wu Shi hurriedly stood up and said: "Yiyi, Xiaofeng said, I also want to come over and peel the fruit to make some money to subsidize the family, my mother thought, this child is so diligent, so let her come in and work, this one more person can peel it, and it can be peeled faster." “
Lin Yi didn't have a good impression of the people of the old Lin family, but this Lin Xiaofeng took the initiative to ask to come over to work, and she couldn't say no, especially after the Wu family agreed in advance, she was even more difficult to drive Lin Xiaofeng out in front of Wu Dahua, Zhang Hehua and several others, so it would be too bad for the Wu family to lose face.
The left and right are just doing odd jobs for a few days, and Lin Yi's heart is not so small, so that he is reluctant to let Lin Xiaofeng earn even those few pennies.
Lin Yi smiled slightly and said, "Mother is right, one more person can do the work, and she can finish it earlier, if she wants to do it, let her stay." “
Wu Shi breathed a sigh of relief, she was really worried just now that Lin Yi would directly drive Lin Xiaofeng out.
Lin Yi saw that the pots around Wu Dahua and the others were almost full, so he went into the house to get the scale, and asked Jin Dou to take the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone.
The two walked out with their things, Lin Yi first weighed the pecans that Wu Dahua peeled, and then said to Ji Qianmo: "Jindou, Aunt Wu's is fifteen catties, you can write it down on paper." “
"Oh!"
Ji Qianmo agreed, and then wrote the words "Aunt Wu" on the paper, and then wrote a "fifteen" on the back.
Lin Yi came over to look at it and felt that there was no problem, so he asked him to write a name every two lines, and write the names of Zhang Hehua, Wu Daniu, Lin Xianglian, and Lin Xiaofeng in turn, and then weighed the pecans in the basins of the previous people in turn, and recorded the weight respectively.
Several people thought that Jin Dou was a fool before, but now they were surprised to see that he could write and calculate.
