When the two of them came in today, Zhang Cuilan and her daughter had just had breakfast and cleaned up. Zhang Cuilan was making clothes for her daughter. When she saw her sister and brother coming, she came over to salute, "I have seen you young lady, young master."
Although the little guy was a little uncomfortable seeing them like this, he also deliberately became serious and said, "Well, my sister works hard every day. You have to help her well and don't let her work so hard. I will reward you when the time comes."
Su Tang made Su Tang laugh. After she made money, she would give the little guy twenty cents as pocket money every month, and she would not specifically care how he spent it. However, although the little guy had pocket money, he never spent it randomly. They are kept well, and even snacks are not bought randomly.
Later, when Su Tang asked, he found out that the little guy wanted to save all his money so that if anything happened in the future, he could supplement the family income. Su Tang could only sigh that this child from a poor family should be the master of the family long ago.
However, he was not taught that he must spend money. Saving or spending money is a kind of property management for Su Nuo. As long as it is not crooked, there is no right or wrong. Su Tang only needs to grasp the direction.
Although Su Nuo can't eat meat these days, she is well fed and is no longer as skinny as before. She has a chubby face and looks very cute when she earnestly imitates adults.
Zhang Cuilan is also a mother. After hearing this, she hurriedly bowed and saluted, "I obey the young master and help the young lady in the future."
"The same goes for my slave. I know how to do the work. I can definitely help the lady." Zhang Cuilan's daughter also said.
Seeing their support, Su Nuo nodded like an adult, "Well, if you do a good job, I will reward you. I keep my word."
"Okay!" Zhang Cuilan smiled and nodded.
Su Tang and the little guy introduced, "They are the servants bought by my sister. This is Lady Lan, and this is Lady Lan's daughter..."
At this point, Su Tang thought of Zhang Cuilan's daughter's name and said, "Dani's name is not good, change her name to Mint!"
Usually after selling oneself and becoming a servant, the master will change his name. The girl heard the name Su Tang said was quite pleasant and she was very happy. "Thank you, miss. From now on, my slave will be called Mint."
When Zhang Cuilan heard that Su Tang had changed her daughter's name, a trace of sadness flashed in her eyes, and then she suppressed it. Even if she sold herself into slavery, she would still survive. Having food to eat was better than being beaten and scolded by men in her previous home. Not enough to eat and not warm enough to wear.
Then the master who sold himself was buying fabrics for the two of them to make clothes. Zhang Cuilan also came from a poor family. She already felt that she was very satisfied now and could always be with her daughter.
Su Tang took Su Nuo into the main room. Zhang Cuilan quickly asked her daughter to boil water for the Su Tang siblings and followed Su Tang in. "Miss, I bought oil yesterday afternoon. Rapeseed oil costs ten cents a piece." The price of peanut oil and sesame oil is eleven cents per catty, and lard oil is twelve cents per catty. The slave bought six catties and refined more than five catties of oil.
Then the wooden barrels cost thirty cents each, and the slave bought two, and two sets of coarse cloth for clothes, a total of twenty-five cents.
Because there was no needlework at home, the slave bought some for five cents, and then bought grain and vegetables for twenty cents.
The vegetables in this town are not cheap. Looking at the space in the yard, the slave thought that he could grow some by himself in the spring next year and save some money by then. "
Zhang Cuilan reported the accounts neatly.
