194 Let Everyone Choose
Old Madam Wang said this casually, but everyone in the Wang Family was shocked, especially the sons and daughters-in-law.
This was an annual salary of 150 taels of silver which included food and accommodation. Didn’t this mean that they could directly save 150 taels of silver a year?
To the Wang Family, who had just started earning money, this was an unimaginably generous remuneration.
As for the month-long family visit leave every year, they did not care much about it.
Actually, working outside long term often meant that there was no leave all year round. If they wanted to take leave for an urgent matter, the deduction of their salary would be unbearable.
Of course, it was a good thing to be granted leave. A month was just enough for a round trip, and they could even stay at home for a few days.
Wang Chuangui thought further. After hearing Old Madam Wang’s words, he asked, “Mother, then according to your thoughts, who should this candidate be?”
That’s right. The Wang Family had so many people and four sons. Who was this lucrative job going to be given to?
In the past, Wang Chuangui was not qualified to participate. After all, what could a cripple do?
Now, the four Wang brothers all had this opportunity.
If the conditions were good, Wang Dalang might be able to go too.
Old Madam Wang smiled faintly. “That will depend on you. Let me say something ugly first. No matter who you decide to send, that person must do a good job. Don’t play tricks and embarrass our Wang Family. If I find out that you’ve embarrassed our family outside, I’ll let you know the meaning of pain!”
This meant that the candidate spot was still pending.
In fact, anyone who wanted to go could fight for the opportunity.
Madam Zhang was a little eager to try. She gently pushed Wang Chuanyuan’s arm, wanting him to fight for this spot.
Now, there were many things to do in the Wang Family Steamed Bun Shop, and business was booming. However, it was still unknown if they could earn 150 taels a year.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtActually, it was very difficult to earn this much. There might not even be that much gross profit.
Wang Chuanyuan shook his head gently.
He quite liked making buns. Although it was a little exhausting, he knew what to do every day. He would wake up in the morning to finish what he had to do and wait for guests to come.
By noon, he had cleaned up what needed to be cleaned up. The rest of the time was his own.
Although there was a limit as to how far he could go, he felt at ease.
If he had to travel far to be someone else’s butler, not to mention whether he had the ability, even if he did, he preferred to work for his family.
As for Wang Chuangui, he wanted to give it a try. In any case, ever since he started studying, Wang Chuangui felt that doing anything was better than studying.
Even if he had to pick dung every day, it was better than writing articles, reading articles, and memorizing articles every day.
“Tell me, what’s your plan?” Old Madam Wang waited quietly.
Madam Zhang poked Wang Chuanyuan a few times until his arm turned red. Wang Chuanyuan gritted his teeth and remained silent.
In the end, Madam Zhang became more violent. She pinched a section of skin and twisted it ruthlessly.
“Ah!” Wang Chuanyuan cried out in pain.
Old Madam Wang looked at him. “Chuanyuan, it seems that your thoughts are very strong. Tell me.”
Wang Chuanyuan : “...”
“Mother, I don’t have any thoughts. I want to run the bun shop well right now. Perhaps in a few years, our bun shop can open a branch. I’ve already thought about it. When we open a branch, I’ll leave it to the boys to handle. At that time, they’ll be grown up and will have a source of income.”
Some people were envious of their Wang Family for having so many sons, while others knew that they were very vexed. The boys wanted to eat the moment they opened their mouths. More than ten hungry mouths in a family was like raising a Taotie Divine Beast.
He had to arrange the children’s future.
“You’re thinking quite far.” Old Madam Wang looked at Wang Chuangui again. “Then what do you think? I see that you’re reading impatiently all day. I think you don’t want to study anymore. That’s fine too. You can go over there and be a steward.”
Although Old Madam Wang’s words were very calm, Wang Chuangui felt that that voice made his heart tingle.
He even had a strange thought in his heart. If he nodded his head now, he might regret it in the future.
Wang Chuangui smiled obsequiously. “Mother, you must be joking. I’m studying hard now, and I still have to be a role model for the children. Recently, the Master has also praised me for making great improvements in my studies. If I can strengthen my foundation well, I’m very confident in taking the entrance examination next year.”
This was the truth. Although Wang Chuangui did not like to study, he was really talented in it.
He could master the content taught by the Master and memorize the poems quickly. He could also understand them completely, so there was no need to spend much effort.
The Master even said that if he had studied since he was young, he might have been able to become a top scholar.
Old Madam Wang nodded, indicating that she had heard him.
Now, Wang Chuanfu was still at home. Wang Chuanman had gone out to look for Wang Aibao and had yet to return home.
Wang Chuangui and Wang Chuanyuan had both made it clear that they did not want to be a butler.
The matter fell into a deadlock.
“You don’t have to answer me now. Shopkeeper Zhou isn’t in a hurry either. He doesn’t urgently need a butler now. Go back and think about whether you want to do it or not. In any case, if you want to do it, you have to do it well for me. Don’t waste this opportunity.”
Old Madam Wang stopped talking and did not say anything else.
In addition, she asked Old man Wang to make arrangements and call Wang Chuanfu over to hear what he would say.
Old man Wang asked Wang Erlang and Wang Sanlang to accompany him and drive the donkey cart back to the village.
He could only bring people over tomorrow after returning to the village today.
The children did not know what everyone was talking about, but seeing that the adults’ expressions were a little serious, they knew that they could not be mischievous today. Otherwise, they might be punished even more severely.
Hence, everyone followed the rules and behaved well.
The children even applied the etiquette that the teachers usually taught them. Old Madam Wang saw that they ate more appropriately and paid a lot of attention to their usual words, and the disdain in her heart finally lessened.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt was alright. At the very least, these kids were not incurable.
...
It seemed that the old man’s descendants were not that bad.
Old man Wang, who was setting up the melon vines in the courtyard, suddenly sneezed heavily. He rubbed his nose, his face filled with confusion.
“The weather hasn’t changed yet. I caught a cold so quickly?”
After dinner, Old Madam Wang chased the children out and asked them to go to the Qin residence to play.
When Little Ah Yu found out that she was going to Big Brother Ah You’s house, she was naturally overjoyed. She sat on the little lamb’s back and quickly headed for the Qin residence.
Wang Liulang hurriedly shouted, “Little Sister Ah Yu, wait for us!”
If they lost Little Sister Ah Yu again, they would probably have to sleep on their stomachs tonight.
Because their buttocks would definitely be split open by Grandma!
After the children left, Old Madam Wang gathered the Wang Family together again and returned to her room to take out a cloth package.
This was what she had brought back with her.
There were no clothes in the cloth bag.
...
Instead, they contained small cloth bags.
Old Madam Wang opened two of the cloth bags. There were actually golden hairpins inside, and it was obvious that the style was very new.
The eyes of the women lit up.
Old Madam Wang pretended not to see it and opened another cloth bag.
There was a stack of banknotes lying inside.
Yes, a whole stack.
This time, not to mention the women, even Old man Wang gasped.
“Old woman, don’t tell me you killed someone and robbed them?! Is Shopkeeper Zhou fine?!”
