He was rescued by Gu Lili and lived and ate at her house every day, so how could he possibly accept wages from her?
Gu Lili noticed Chang'an's unease and said with a smile, "Although you are staying at my house temporarily, you are also helping with the work, so you should get your share of the wages. You have been at my house for a total of ten days and worked for seven days. You are paid fifteen coins per day. After deducting the food expenses, you will have fifty-six coins left. I will not charge you for lodging!"
Gu Lili's actions were also a way of indirectly telling Chang'an that he needed to contribute his labor to eat and live in her home.
After all, Gu Lili didn't know when Chang'an would regain his memories.
It just so happens that my family is short of adult laborers, so I'll just hire a long-term worker temporarily.
Chang'an looked at the clothes he was wearing; they were still Li Tiansheng's.
So he nodded in agreement, realizing he actually needed the money.
"Lili, your third uncle and I won't be having dinner at home tonight. We haven't been back for so many days, so let's go back and visit. We'll come back early tomorrow morning!" Old Mrs. Li said to Gu Lili.
I've been so busy these past few days, I don't even know how things are at home.
Has Zuo Xiuhong been causing trouble at home? How's their pig intestine business going?
A few days ago, when Li Ershu came to pick up the maltose, he also helped Li Qingshan bring back the hot pot base.
However, Li Ershu didn't know how their business was doing either.
Therefore, Mrs. Li decided to go home herself to see the situation.
Gu Lili nodded and said, "Then let Yun Chu take you back."
It's just in time to bring it back for dinner.
Seeing that it was still early, Old Mrs. Li quickly waved her hand and declined.
"No need, your third uncle and I can walk back. It's not far."
These past few days, Gu Yun Chu has been busy running around, and Old Mrs. Li noticed that he has lost weight.
So they thought they should let Gu Yun Chu rest at home, and they could walk back on their own.
Gu Yun Chu smiled and said, "It's alright, I'm not busy right now, let me take you there!"
As she spoke, Gu Yun Chu dashed off to the cattle pen to fetch the oxen and prepare to drive the oxcart.
Old Mrs. Li had no choice but to give up and stop refusing.
Gu Lili took a packet of broken maltose and stuffed it into Old Mrs. Li's hand, saying, "Take this candy to Qimu."
Although Zuo Xiuhong is always causing trouble and trying to take advantage of others.
However, Gu Lili could still tell the difference between a cousin and a cousin.
Even if it's just for my grandmother's sake, I still have to give her the candy.
Soon, Gu Yun Chu had set up the oxcart, and Old Mrs. Li and Li Tian Sheng got on and went home.
Gu Lili looked at the stunned Chang'an and said, "Chang'an, come here, I have something for you."
As she spoke, Gu Lili walked towards the inner room.
Chang'an followed Gu Lili into the inner room and saw that Gu Lili was holding a piece of black cloth.
This cloth was the very cloth that Gu Lili bought from the mall in a moment of panic when she rescued Chang'an from the sea.
However, Li Tiansheng and Gu Yunchu were unaware of this and thought that Chang'an had been wrapped in cloth and thrown into the sea, where he was rescued by Gu Lili.
"Um... I'll give this fabric to you!" Gu Lili said somewhat awkwardly.
I had inadvertently looked everyone over that day, so seeing this cloth made me feel a little guilty.
Thankfully, Chang'an has amnesia, otherwise what would happen if she had to take responsibility!
Chang'an felt a little embarrassed. He had already accepted the wages from Gu Lili, so how could he possibly ask for more cloth?
He quickly waved his hand and said, "Lili, there's no need. I have money now, and I can buy fabric to make clothes myself. Let's save this fabric to make clothes for Yun Chu or Yan Yu!"
Gu Lili, however, handed the cloth directly to Chang'an.
“Here you go, just take it. You have so much to say. By the way, you can ask Huanhuan to measure your body and have Huanhuan and Zheng Yue make you some clothes.”
As she spoke, Gu Lili quickly headed towards the kitchen.
She was extremely guilty.
After spending these few days together, Chang'an has come to understand Gu Lili's character.
She dislikes being polite to people and will readily accept anything given to her.
She doesn't like to refuse when she gives things to others.
Chang'an smiled helplessly, then took the cloth and walked towards Gu Huanhuan and Zheng Yue, who were embroidering under the eaves.
When Gu Huanhuan saw Chang'an walking towards them, she quickly smiled and asked, "Brother Chang'an, is something the matter?"
In the past few days, Chang'an has gradually become familiar with Gu Lili's family.
Chang'an has a good temper, works hard, and teaches them to read and write, so the family members all like Chang'an very much.
Chang'an held up the cloth in his hand and said, "I'd like to ask you two to make me a dress! I won't do it for free, I'll pay you for your work!"
As he spoke, he shook the fabric in his hand.
Gu Huanhuan and Zheng Yue couldn't help but cover their mouths and giggle.
"Alright! Then you can treat me and Yue'er to a sugar cake each!" Gu Huanhuan said with a smile.
Gu Huanhuan subconsciously regarded Chang'an as part of the family, just like Zheng Yue, so how could she possibly ask for wages?
Perfect, let's just consider it practice for her and Yue'er.
Chang'an nodded and readily agreed, "Alright! Then I'll have to trouble you two younger sisters!"
Gu Huanhuan took the fabric, and together with Zheng Yue, they measured Chang'an's body shape before putting down their work and starting to cut clothes for him.
It wasn't that Gu Huanhuan was in a hurry; it was just that Chang'an's clothes were too ridiculous.
Most of her arms were exposed, and even her ankles were bare.
Fortunately, it's not cold now, so this outfit is still acceptable.
Chang'an then turned around and led Zhuifeng out of the enclosure, taking it to the doorway to eat some grass.
These past few days, whenever Chang'an has free time, he takes Zhuifeng out for a stroll, and everyone has gotten used to it.
When Gu Yanyu saw Chang'an leading the horse, he, who was reading a book, quickly put down his book and trotted to follow behind Chang'an.
It's not that Gu Yanyu is being lazy; it's just that Gu Yanyu wants to ask Chang'an for advice.
Because Chang'an had taught him many things these past few days, the teacher praised him in the classroom.
So, whenever Gu Yanyu saw that Chang'an had free time, she would follow him around like a little shadow, chattering away and asking him questions.
Chang'an didn't find Gu Yanyu noisy at all, but patiently taught Gu Yanyu about academic matters.
Even Gu Lili was somewhat surprised that Chang'an had completely forgotten her own name and where she lived.
It's amazing how these skills just flowed out of his mouth!
Gu Lili had just finished cooking when Gu Yun Chu returned.
After eating, the group washed up and went to bed early.
I need to plant trees tomorrow, so I need to get some rest.
The next morning, just as Gu Lili got up, Old Mrs. Li and Li Tiansheng arrived.
However, Li Qimu was following behind them.
