However, this didn’t mean that Lu Sanzhu had turned over a new leaf. He had told Madam Liang that he was doing this because he had a big plan and couldn’t lose a big deal because of a small one. It wasn’t worth it to lose a job that cost one tael of silver a month for a seemingly worthless jade pendant.
Of course, there was no need to say such words.
Madam Liang continued, “That’s why I said that there will be gains with sacrifices.”
The old lady was impatient. “What exactly are you trying to say?”
“That, Mother.” Madam Liang felt wronged. “Look, Sanzhu has already been paid two taels (monetary). I’ve been making toy covers for so long, but I haven’t even paid a single cent. I have no money to take home, so I can’t even raise my head in front of San Zhu.”

She rubbed her temples. “Alright, I’ll calculate your salary. It just so happens that Second Brother is here in the shop today.”
Madam Liang was delighted. She had seized the opportunity to come to the shop.
The old lady asked Lu Erbai to take out the account book. She wanted to see how much Madam Liang had sold since they started making the doll covers, and how much they had sold for. After calculating, she would bring it back to her.
The old lady did not deliberately delay sending her the money. Previously, the toy covers made by Madam Liang had not been sold in the shop. After selling them, she had made some money, but the old lady wanted to wait until the middle of the month to send it to her. That way, it would be easier to remember.
In the end, in the middle of the month, Yu said that she was going on a long trip.
The old lady was afraid that she would not be able to afford the money, so she took out all the silver in the house and put it in her purse for her.
Of course, the salary that belonged to Madam Liang could only continue to be delayed.
Fortunately, someone had bought two sets of clothes at the shop yesterday, and the shop had made some money again. The Madam Liang’s wages were not high, so they still paid her.
Madam Liang’s eyes lit up slightly. She moved closer to the counter and watched Lu Erbai flip open the account book and start counting.
However, she did not know how to read. Although the account book was filled with many words, she only knew the simple words one, two, and three. When she looked at the other words, her eyes began to blur.
It seemed that sending Dabao to school was indeed the right choice. He would not be afraid of being cheated when he earned money in the future.
Madam Liang’s accounts were quite simple. Lu Erbai settled the accounts in no time.
“Third Sister-in-law’s salary is a total of 935 coins (monetary).”
Madam Liang exclaimed in surprise, “So many?” Unfortunately, she didn’t have enough.
The old lady asked Lu Erbai to give him the money. Lu Erbai took out the copper coins and counted them. There was still a bit of money left.

Madam Liang was even happier. This was the first time she had earned a tael of silver with her abilities. It was a full tael. This sense of accomplishment was simply too exciting.
After taking the silver, Madam Liang felt at ease.
The old lady could not help but remind her, “Don’t think about eating when you have money. Now that Dabao is studying, studying costs money. You will have time to spend it in the future.”
“Don’t worry, Mother. I’m very supportive of Dabao’s studies. I was still thinking of him taking the Elementary Scholar and High Scholar exams in the future.” As for the chef he mentioned last time, it was impossible, absolutely impossible. “It just so happens that he’s off tomorrow. I’ll take him to buy two books.”
“He’s resting tomorrow?” the old lady asked.
Madam Liang nodded. “Yes, why?”
“Then take Dabao to your parents’ house and cut a piece of meat for them.”
Madam Liang was shocked. “Mother, what are you talking about? Why should I give them meat?” With the money she earned, even if she had to buy meat, she would have to eat it herself.
