Chapter 264 Wife, From Now On, We'll Rely on You to Support the Family

Madam Liang nodded, and Lu Sanzhu asked impatiently, "Mother, how is the pay calculated?"

The old lady was truly exasperated with the two of them, and immediately said in an annoyed tone, "You'll only pay as many as you make. If you sell a doll for a hundred coins, you'll get eight coins as your wages."

Eight copper coins for wages?

Liang immediately understood; these kinds of dolls were actually quite easy to make. She could make four or five from morning till night. If it weren't for the fact that the fabric for the doll covers was leftover from making clothes and was quite fragmented, she could make even more.

But four or five is not bad either. If you calculate it like that, you can earn thirty or forty coins a day.

"My God, thirty or forty coins? That's a lot!" Lu Sanzhu calculated even faster and jumped up. "This is more profitable than selling labor or doing odd jobs! We can do it, we can do it! Wife, you should do more. We'll rely on you to support the family in the future."

Shu Yu, the old lady, and Daya, "..."

You're such a clever little devil! Your reaction speed is amazing; you've got the abacus clicking away like crazy.

Before Liang could react, she was also feeling dizzy from the shock of receiving thirty or forty coins.

Yes, he earns more than the men in the village who do odd jobs; he's truly one of a kind.

However, the old lady quickly interrupted her daydream, "What are you thinking? Thirty or forty coins a day? Did you even hear what I said? I said, if you sell one hundred coins, you'll get eight coins. Not all dolls sell for one hundred coins; smaller, cheaper dolls might sell for thirty or forty coins."

Without hesitation, Ms. Liang said, "Then I'll make the ones that cost one hundred coins, and I won't make the ones that cost thirty or forty coins."

"Pah! You wish!" The old woman nearly spat at him. "Is this something you can decide?"

"I……"

The old lady said impatiently, "I decide how many and how big to make. You just need to make the condoms according to the requirements. Don't think about anything else. Do it if you want, or don't."

Liang shrank back, exchanged a glance with Lu Sanzhu, and muttered softly, "I didn't say I wouldn't do it, I'm still very willing."

"Okay, then we can get started this afternoon. I'm telling you, if it's done poorly and doesn't pass, we'll have to start over."

"Don't worry, Mom, I'll definitely do a great job."

Although the old lady had poured cold water on their hopes, they remained convinced that they could earn so much in a day, so they were overjoyed.

Liang immediately and quickly started helping the old lady with the work, while Lu Sanzhu, having nothing to do, just watched from the side.

As I watched, I felt a burning gaze on my back.

He turned around abruptly and met Shu Yu's smiling eyes.

Lu Sanzhu's expression changed slightly, and he immediately stood up from his chair.

What's wrong? What did he do wrong that Ayu is looking at him like that? It's terrifying.

Seeing that he was finally looking at her, Shu Yu immediately gave him a meaningful look, signaling him to come out.

Lu Sanzhu suddenly had a flash of inspiration and remembered in an instant, "Ah, right, right, I'll go wash the dishes."

He said he hadn't done anything wrong; it turned out he hadn't washed the bowl after eating noodles.

Upon hearing that the old lady had returned, the two swallowed the last mouthful of soup and rushed out, leaving the bowls and chopsticks scattered in the kitchen.

The old lady and the others stared in astonishment at Lu Sanzhu, who had already run off.

The old lady asked Liang, "Third son, can he wash dishes?"
