"Also, don't lay them off. I don't want them to lose their job opportunities because of me."

Li Xiuzhu smiled when he heard this.

"My workstations are all full. Basically, we will only hire people when there are new positions needed."

"If you're not used to their care..."

Li Xiuzhu thought for a moment and continued, "How about this, apart from cooking, boiling water and other chores, you can do everything else by yourself."

"Their future jobs will be to clean the place and help you cook. What do you think?"

"It doesn't matter whether you are here or not. Their work is no different."

Xiao Meng smiled relaxedly when she heard that and felt a lot more relaxed.

"Okay...thank you."

Li Xiuzhu smiled.

"No need to thank you. By the way, this is my personal maid Du Sanniang."

"Sanniang, this is Xiaomeng, the future wife."

Xiao Meng felt a little uncomfortable when she heard this. She had never said that she wanted to be Li Xiuzhu's wife, but when she thought of the disaster in which she lost her virginity, she did not refute.

If the tragedy of losing her virginity is true, she is worthy of being a wife, not to mention a future wife.

"Sanniang has met the Madam."

"Xiao Meng has seen Sanniang."

Sanniang was stunned. It seemed that this girl had never experienced any family etiquette.

How could a lady tell a servant that she had met him? At most, she would say "hmm", nod, or say "you are polite, Sanniang", which would be a compliment.

Du Sanniang looked at Li Xiuzhu, who smiled and said, "Xiao Meng is a Taoist disciple, and he practiced in the mountains before."

"Don't be so formal. We don't have so many rules in our family anyway."

The maids all belong to the master's family. There is a 99% chance that Xiaomeng will be his wife in the future. There is nothing wrong with this.

"Xiao Meng, let's go. I'll take you to see your master."

"But I think your worries are unnecessary. Your master is staying at the inn. Even if he can't take care of himself anymore, he will have to pay for it."

When Xiao Meng heard this, she suddenly realized that she was too concerned and had lost her mind.

The three of them got on a carriage and went to an inn.

This inn is a favorite inn of the martial arts world. It is hard to imagine that the leader of the Taoist Tianzong would also live here.

As soon as Li Xiuzhu brought Xiaomeng in, the inn suddenly became quiet.

But it was not absolutely quiet, because many people just followed subconsciously, and when they shifted their gaze to the door, it immediately became completely quiet.

It is rare to encounter beautiful women in their area, and this time there are two of them, each with her own unique charm.

Not to mention the heroic Du Sanniang, even more rare is the otherworldly Xiao Meng.

That extraordinary temperament will make you feel that even speaking loudly would be a blasphemy to the goddess.

Even Li Xiuzhu is so handsome that people will like him at first sight.

Such a combination of handsome men and beautiful women is bound to cause a chain reaction.

"Are you three here for a quick meal or staying overnight?"

Li Xiuzhu didn't care about these people's behavior, but said, "Looking for someone, the guest of Room 3."

"Okay, sir, please come this way."

Normally, the shopkeeper would not lead the way personally, but he was a native of Shangjing, so naturally he had met Li Xiuzhu, a prominent figure.

The people would not fight with the officials, let alone the Duke of the county, so they would naturally serve him carefully.

It was not until the three people disappeared at the stairs that the lobby below was suddenly unsealed and became noisy.

"It's over. I, Old Cheng, am going to fall in love. That woman in white is so beautiful."

"I dare not think about the woman in white. I feel blasphemy when I think about it. But the woman in red is heroic and valiant. She is perfect for people like us."

"It means the Bodhisattva didn't show up. Otherwise, I would want to try it even if it was the Bodhisattva."

"I think that handsome guy is nice. If I can spend a night with him, I would be happy to live three years less."

At this moment, everyone looked at him, and those who were closer suddenly moved away.

It’s not that I’m afraid of being implicated, but I’m afraid of being targeted by this bastard and my ass will be in danger.

Although Li Xiuzhu heard the noise below, he did not take any action.

Although the other person's voice is a little hoarse, what if it's a woman? Don't think it's impossible. Think about Zhou Shuyi and Fu Tuaner. It's normal to have a hoarse voice.

Even if he really is a man, it wouldn't be that serious. If he is guilty, everyone in front of the screen will have to go to jail.

Xiaoyaozi was in the room at this time, but the shopkeeper still knocked on the door for a long time before he opened it.

When he was alone, he let himself go.

It's nothing serious, I just drank a little too much and got drunk.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

Xiao Meng frowned when she smelled the alcohol on her master's body.

"Master, how much did you drink?"

Xiaoyaozi looked at his disciple and smiled, saying, "Isn't it a rare opportunity to go down the mountain? Master has nothing to do, so he can only drink more to entertain himself."

Then he looked at Li Xiuzhu and said, "Boy, do you want me to do something?"

"You can go, but you have to pay."

Li Xiuzhu was immediately amused by Xiaoyaozi when he heard this.

"Master, are you out of money?"

Upon hearing this, Xiaoyaozi sighed in a pretentious manner and then said, "The cost of going to the capital is too high. I'm afraid that in half a month, the money my disciple and I brought will be spent."

He glanced at Xiao Meng slyly and continued, "If we spend all the money, we will have no choice but to give up this opportunity and return to the mountain with my silly disciple."

Li Xiuzhu's mouth twitched when he heard this. Your cunning expression is too obvious. You must be saying it on purpose for me to hear.

But looking at Xiaomeng, he really couldn't not give it to her.

Li Xiuzhu thought for a moment and said, "Can I know the Taoist's bottom line?"

Xiaoyaozi was stunned when he heard this, and immediately knew that Li Xiuzhu was going to assign him a job, and that this job was most likely dirty.

Thinking of this, Xiaoyaozi's expression became much more serious.

"It's not okay if it violates the will of Heaven, but anything else is fine."

Li Xiuzhu nodded after hearing this, thought about it, and passed on some of the dirty work.

Although these dirty jobs are not harmless and will not anger God or people, you can't just grab people's bottom line and take advantage of them. If you are not careful, you might end up hurting the roots.

After thinking about it, Li Xiuzhu decided that for the time being, he didn't have any tasks that required a master to complete.

"I would like to ask the Taoist priest to help me take charge of Yunzhu Tower."

"During your stay, I will give you half a catty of fine wine, three dishes, and two taels of silver every day. How about that?"

"If the Taoist priest is not satisfied, you can directly exchange it for money, five taels of silver a day."

When Xiaoyaozi heard this, he quickly said, "The first method is good. You don't need to pay so much money."

Who needs money when you can eat and drink well? Three dishes cost at least seven or eight taels of silver, and with the wine it would cost at least ten taels of silver.

Now you can have food and drink with just three taels of silver, which is definitely the internal price.

"good."

"If there are other tasks during this period, the money can be calculated separately."

Xiaoyaozi shook his head upon hearing this and said, "No need for that. Xiaomeng and I went down the mountain for luck."

"If you calculate the money too clearly, you will have less luck."
