Chapter 260 Assignment of Work
Yue Fuli couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when she saw that Lu Jingxing really liked this place. She was really worried that Lu Jingxing would dislike this country house and that he wouldn't want to live here.
Living in the city wasn't out of the question, but if she did, her two younger brothers would either have to live there or be picked up and dropped off. If they did, she was worried the old lady wouldn't be used to being alone here and would miss them. Not only would it be hard work for the two children, but someone would also have to pick them up.
After putting the luggage away, the old lady came over and called everyone to eat.
There weren't many people at home, and there were no separate tables, so we just sat together and had lunch.
After dinner, Lu Jingxing and his two disciples returned to the front yard. Yue Fuli called Sanniang and Xiuwan together and asked, "Do you two want to stay here or go help out at the shop in the city?"
"Can we stay here?"
"Sure. Stay here and be my family, and help me take care of the house. But don't worry, I'll give you a monthly salary."
After hearing this, Sanniang and Xiuwan were about to speak, but Yue Fuli continued, "Of course, staying here will be hard. You all know our status. Next, we may have to open up wasteland for a while, which is quite tiring. So you can think about it carefully. If you go to the city, I can ask Steward Lin to arrange for you to help out in the shop, or you can open your own shop or something."
"Ari, I want to stay. I'm not afraid of hardship or fatigue, as long as I can have something to eat."
"Yes, Miss Yue, Sister Sanniang and I think the same thing. We like it here, so we want to stay."
"Okay, since you want to stay, then stay."
Yue Fuli didn't object. For her, having the two of them stay would only benefit her. First, they were both good cooks, and second, they could help her with some of the housework.
There were only a few of us in the family, and since my grandmother was old, she definitely couldn't do any work. So, all the housework had to be done by just a few of us.
She was fine with other tasks, but she had no talent for cooking. Her younger siblings were even worse off; if she asked them to cook, they would probably only be able to make porridge.
Whether the food is cooked well or not, it doesn't matter if you eat it yourself, and no one will say anything. But there is still Lu Jingxing, he is the teacher of his younger brothers, how can he not eat well?
Hearing Yue Fuli agreed to let them stay, the two of them immediately became happy and said, "Thank you, A Li."
"Don't be so polite. Since you're staying, we're a family from now on. Just tell me if you have anything."
"Don't worry, we will definitely tell you if there is anything."
Since the two of them were willing to stay, some things had to be arranged first. After dinner, Yue Fuli held a family meeting and assigned everyone what to do.
Zhang and the others had no objections to the tasks assigned to them by their elder sister. Although they were still young, they had grown sensible after their exile.
Seeing that her brothers all had work to do, while she had nothing to do, Ah Yu couldn't help but feel anxious. She looked at Yue Fuli and asked, "Sister, what should I do then?"
The tasks that Yue Fuli just assigned to his younger brothers were to practice martial arts in the morning, study with Lu Jingxing in the morning, and go to open up new land with everyone in the afternoon.
Yue Fuli glanced at the anxious Ah Yu and said with a smile, "Just clean up the house."
