"Mom, should we plant the grape vines we brought back now?"

Cui Zhaozhao walked into the room, threw down a few words, and went straight to the kettle to gulp down water, not noticing that there was another person in the room.

"We have to plant it quickly." Old Mrs. Cui said anxiously.

Lin asked, "The people in the fields haven't left yet, right?"

After drinking the water, Cui Zhaozhao searched around for food and finally found a boiled egg. He peeled it and was eating it when Wen Yan shook his head.

She saw a truckload of grape saplings being transported back, so she found some time to come back and ask about it, and also to fill her stomach.

Lin thought for a moment and said, "Then just call for people to plant. It's getting late now, so we should plant as much as we can before dark."

"I know, I'll be there right away."

Cui Zhaozhao stuffed the remaining egg into his mouth, took a sip of water, wiped his mouth and left.

Old Mrs. Cui was worried: "How can this girl know how to plant trees? No, I'll go over and watch over her too."

There must be something else that made Zhaozhao leave so quickly. They had previously discussed buying some grape saplings from Qingshan Village, transporting them back, and then planting them together with the saplings bought from the mall.

She was probably in a hurry to get to the workshop to secretly buy saplings.

"Mom, please wait a moment." Lin stopped Old Lady Cui and said, "I'll pay you your wages for the past few days. I've been busy lately, so I happen to be free now."

Although Mrs. Cui was worried about planting trees, she couldn't move when she heard about money and said, "Then hurry up."

Old Mrs. Cui was so happy when she got her wages that she completely forgot about Erfu. She put the money back in the house and went out happily.

The Cui family yard was quiet for a short while, but was then disturbed by the sound of footsteps.

"Aunt Lin." Erfu poked his head in. "Did I do well in what you asked me to do yesterday?"

Lin was cutting vegetables. When she heard this, her hands shook and she almost cut herself.

As soon as the person who came to complain was coaxed away, someone came to seek credit.

Lin put down the knife and asked leisurely, "I heard that you gave each person a bonus of ten cents."

Erfu chuckled twice: "I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to take care of both, so I thought of a trick. That's not right, Aunt Lin, how did you know?"

"The person who complained just left, and my ears are still numb."

"Huh?" Erfu didn't understand. "Isn't there anything wrong?"

Lin sighed. She had endured too much, but she still asked him curiously, "How did you come up with this idea?"

Erfu was a little embarrassed: "I have been paid every day for the past two days. I am happy to go to the workshop every day. Last night, my aunt asked me to help watch over the workshop for a day, but I don’t understand the work there, so I thought I would just give her the money directly.

They will definitely be happy if they get more money, and if they are happy, they will do their work well, and I can also pass on my work."

Lin asked again: "Aren't you afraid that they will fool you?"

"That shouldn't be the case." Erfu became more and more uneasy as he thought about it: "Is there really a problem?"

"No, I just didn't expect you to come up with such a great idea, so I asked a few more questions out of curiosity."

Erfu breathed a sigh of relief, the question made him feel nervous.

"You are doing your aunt a favor. You don't have to pay for it. I will give you fifty coins later."

Erfu didn't care about the fifty cents. He earned more than two hundred cents a day and didn't know how to spend it.

The important thing is that Aunt Lin praised him.

But he still had a question: "What was the complaint just about?"

Lin glanced at him.

"Your grandmother Cui is very stingy with money. She told me a few words and asked me to tell you not to spend money recklessly."

"I was wondering why Grandma Cui had such a long face just now." Erfu stuck out his tongue.
