"Farming during the day and keeping watch at night, Uncle Erniu, even a body of iron can't stand it." Song Yuehua said, "Will Uncle Daniu agree?"
Zhang Erniu laughed and said, "I'll hand over half of my earnings to the government, so of course he's willing to do that."
I see.
"Didn't Zhang Rushan get a lot of silver for making Buddhist robes? The silver is enough for the exam. If you exhaust yourself, it will be counterproductive." Song Yuehua advised sincerely.
It's a good thing to have a well-educated child in the family, but every step towards higher heights requires money.
Song Yuehua deeply agrees with this.
Zhang Erniu bowed to Song Yuehua and said, "Rushan was able to make money that time thanks to you and Ming Ge'er. If you hadn't put in so much effort, he wouldn't have been able to make so much money so easily."
"There's nothing to thank me for," Song Yuehua said, turning aside. "Since we are in a cooperative relationship, we should share the profits, and Zhang Rushan has put in a lot of effort."
As soon as she saw Zhang Erniu's expression, Song Yuehua knew that he didn't believe it.
When it came to copying Buddhist scriptures, Zhang Rushan was the best person they could find. Moreover, he had to ensure that there were no mistakes in the characters. If there were any mistakes, all the fabric costs would be borne by him. From any perspective, this was not an easy task.
So Zhang Rushan should get a share of this money.
For Zhang Rushan, the Zhang family rented out half of their house, hired two aunts as long-term farmhands, and found a job as a night watchman. They also rented 25 acres of her land, and demanded spring rice every year in addition to the rice they produced.
It’s not easy when you think about it.
Zhang Erniu was originally planning to go back during the day, but was delayed by Li Dayan's incident. He could only ask Song Yuehua to tell him to go back tomorrow.
"Uncle Erniu, if you don't eat well outside, you can come here to eat and help fetch water. Grandma Mu can't move, so I'll ask Aunt Tian to come and take care of her tomorrow. You can also eat here." Song Yuehua said.
"You still want Aunt Tian to come and take care of her?" Zhang Erniu said in surprise, "Li Dayan is just lucky."
Song Yuehua: "..." She didn't like to hear this. Who was being called shit?
"Grandma Mu can't move her legs, we can't ask her to crawl to cook for us," Song Yuehua said, "and Li Dayan has bad relations with all the neighbors, so we don't feel comfortable asking the neighbors for help."
After returning home, Song Yuehua told Tian about this. Tian was stunned for a moment and said, "Miss, not only will you lose your bonus, but you will also have to pay for it, right?"
It's not necessary to lose money, Song Yuehua thought, because she could get the money back by writing an IOU. And Tian's salary for helping there would only be a little over one or two taels of silver for three months.
Just consider it as losing money to avoid disaster.
