47 Hiring Someone To Do Some Work
“This kid Da Bao is bright. Your attitude towards him just now was a little too bad, wasn’t it?”
Uncle Liu was a straightforward person and would never beat around the bush. He was like Aunt Liu, though they were not from the same family.
Mo Ruyue didn’t like people interfering in her family’s affairs, even with good intentions.
She said coldly, “Uncle Liu, you only saw the obedient side of Da Bao. But did you see his stubborn side? I have my own reasons for disciplining my child.”
Uncle Liu was stunned. He was about to retort when he suddenly saw many people walking over.
“Qin family, we’re here to help.”
The man in the lead greeted Mo Ruyue.
Before they went home just now, Mo Ruyue had wandered around the village. At this time, other than the men working in the fields, there were also some women who had finished doing housework gathered in groups of two or three, chatting and gossiping.
She directly told the women that she needed some help. Of course, it was not for free. No matter if they were men or women, they would be paid.
Those women had already guessed that Mo Ruyue would clean up the new house. As long as the people who helped Qin move the house yesterday were clear about the current situation in the house.
Initially, no one planned to help. Taking Qin Shi’s example, no one wanted to put in their effort for nothing and still have to hold back their anger. They didn’t expect Mo Ruyue to mention the remuneration so straightforwardly, and it was five copper coins per person. This was not a small amount for them.
boxn ovel. c0mAt that time, someone had asked if they could really get the money. Sure enough, they didn’t want to wait until they finished their work and then regret it later on.
Mo Ruyue was also straightforward and said directly, “You can get the village chief to testify. If I went back on my word, could I still stay in this village?”
The women thought about it and agreed. Mo Ruyue was someone who could earn a few hundred taels of silver. Why would she care about a few hundred copper coins?
In the end, they were still worried, so they went to invite the village chief over. He heard Mo Ruyue repeat what she had just said. “That’s enough. I’m here as a witness. If the Qin family reneges on their promise, I won’t stop you from collecting it however you want.”
His words were equivalent to giving everyone reassurance. Although everyone knew that Mo Ruyue knew some martial arts and could hunt a big tiger alone, she was only one person after all. She also had a child with her. If everyone swarmed up at that time, would they still be afraid of being unable to subdue her?
Therefore, all the women went to find their husbands and told them about this matter. Suddenly, almost the entire village was mobilized.
Five copper coins a day was indeed not a small number. Even if they were to bask in the sun for an entire day, they might not even be able to earn three copper coins, let alone help clean up the house and rebuild the pigsty and sheep pen that had been destroyed. It was much easier than doing farm work in the fields for a day.
“Everyone’s here. ”
Mo Ruyue greeted them lightly and did not continue to speak to Uncle Liu.
“Let’s do it as we’ve discussed before. The women will help to clean up the place, and the men will help to build the pigsty and sheep pen. Oh, and there’s also the cowshed and stable. Make the fence big for the chickens and ducks. It should be able to accommodate dozens of chickens.”
Mo Ruyue’s words made everyone speechless. There were too many things that everyone could hear from this. Did this mean that she had bought cattle and horses? And dozens of chickens and ducks? That would not cost cheap.
Someone wanted to sound her out, but they swallowed their words when they met Mo Ruyue’s indifferent gaze.
Her eyes were the same as when she had forced the Qin family to split. Although her eyes were bright, they were extremely cold, and there was even a faint glimmer of impatience.
“After tidying up the house today, I’ll have to trouble everyone tomorrow. We’ll be officially moving in. I’ve bought some furniture, and I’ll need everyone’s help to settle them. Of course, it will not be free, and the remuneration will be the same as today.”
Mo Ruyue’s following words made those who were still unwilling to give up and wanted to find out information shut their mouths completely. No one wanted to anger Mo Ruyue for their own benefit. Not everyone needed to come to move. If she said she had enough manpower and used it as an excuse to get rid of them, wouldn’t they earn five copper coins less?
However, no one would like to go against money.
Of course, Mo Ruyue said this on purpose. She didn’t have the patience to let those gossiping women come and ask around. If they angered her, it would be inevitable that trouble would arise.
She was not afraid of trouble but did not want to cause trouble.
Very quickly, everyone started to work according to their respective tasks. Mo Ruyue did not idle around and give instructions. She even followed a few other women and started to clean the rooms in the house.
It was almost noon, and the house was only half cleaned, so Mo Ruyue didn’t know when she had left.
“I thought she would stay until the end. I didn’t expect her just to be putting on an act.”
One of the women said disdainfully.
“Aiya, they’ve already promised to pay us. Even if we don’t work, what can you do? Compared to that miserly Old Lady Qin, you’re already not bad. ”
This time, it was Aunt Liu who spoke. She had initially wanted to go home and inform Uncle Liu to come and help. But she was in a hurry. She was afraid she would miss this opportunity, so she rushed to the new house.
At least Mo Ruyue didn’t disregard her, so even though she was a step late, she could still help with the work.
After she heard the complaints of others, she couldn’t help but stand up and say something fair.
Did the employer ever have to work with the hired workers after paying them? These people had taken the money and still wanted her to work with them. Who was so thick-skinned to say such a thing?
“Hmph, Liu family, even though you’re neighbors with the Qin family, you don’t have to speak up for her like this. Can she give you an extra copper if you speak up for her?”
The aunt’s face turned red, but she was unwilling to give up and couldn’t help but ridicule.
“I’m just speaking the truth. What does it have to do with the money? Otherwise, the next time your family hires someone to do something, you’ll be busy from the beginning to the end. Don’t say you don’t need to work after spending the money. ”
Aunt Liu was not an easy person to bully. She immediately retorted, “You! What are you saying!”
As expected, the other party was not on the same level as Aunt Liu. Besides, she was in the wrong, to begin with, so she was even more tongue-tied and couldn’t speak.
“Alright, everyone, stop talking. The earlier we finish, the earlier we can go home. Are you guys not hungry?”
Someone beside her advised, and the woman immediately stopped and went elsewhere. She was still mumbling softly, but no one could hear what she was saying.
Mo Ruyue didn’t really care about that. Everyone was allowed to go home to have lunch. It was fine to continue in the afternoon. However, everyone was embarrassed to leave first.
