Chapter 209 Set the agenda
Grandma Tang felt so good that she made things difficult for her, but she didn't realize that she was making things difficult for her. She was making things difficult for her mother-in-law. She didn't notice that her mother-in-law was angry with her. At this time, she said:
"Mother-in-law, have you paid a salary? 18 taels are a lot. The workers who work in our house are at most two or three taels."
Mrs. Tang listened to her wife's words, but did not reply to her words. She was so angry that she was already smoking in her chest. She chose to ignore her wife, but said to her grandson:
"Big grandson, let these two gentlemen teach you and your younger brother separately. What subjects do you think you need to learn?"
He sat there, listening quietly, Tang Shunyan, the adults spoke, but he didn't interrupt. At a young age, he knew that their words were about discussing the teacher's teaching, and his mother was still making things difficult for others as always.
"Grandma, if the teacher and his sisters still have time after the courses, I want them to give me selective tutoring, and every homework for piano, chess, calligraphy and painting is fine. As for my younger brother, he is only in the enlightenment period, and it would be great to be able to understand him reading villain's books."
Mrs. Tang nodded and then glanced at her son.
Master Tang had already thought about it, how could he not see that his mother was angry?
With their wealth, they spend some money on their children to hire their children and let them work harder to educate their children. Can't they afford this little money?
"Let's do this. In addition to teaching musical instruments, you can tutor my two sons when you have time. We will give you another 10 taels of silver per couple every month. This is just the beginning. If your life changes in the future, or the students you teach improve their grades, and students can learn the basics of musical instruments and can play and sing, we will pay you a salary."
The Mo family raised their heads with their lowered bows, their mouths moved, and they didn't say anything. They were short of money, so no one would think they had the money to accept too much?
As for teaching students well, this is their responsibility to be a teacher and their mission as a teacher.
Grandma Tang didn't expect that she not only did not lower the price for the couple, but her husband also slandered her and gave the couple a salary.
"Husband..."
What did Grandma Tang want to say? But she stared at her husband with a stern look, which made her heart tremble, and she understood that her husband was angry.
She didn't understand why her husband was angry for a moment, but she didn't dare to say the following words.
"Then it's decided like that? As for the part-time job of the Ye family, they will also give you part-time salary. You go out for one day every three days, and go to the Ye family for one day, and we think that our mansion will give you a day off every three days."
Mrs. Tang said something, and everyone else here agreed with him and nodded.
"The children's teaching schedule is set!"
Mr. Tang, the head of the Tang family, who had never spoken, also said it.
Even if Grandma Tang was not satisfied, she would not dare to say anything again. She slowly came back to her husband's anger at her, which might have something to do with her mother-in-law.
I had asked just now that this is a relative of my mother-in-law's relative, so she is considered a relative. She looked down on Mrs. Mo's marriage to a poor scholar and did not take this matter in her heart.
Since it was decided like this, even if Grandma Tang didn't want to, she could only remain silent and dare not speak, pouting secretly, thinking about finding other things to make things difficult for them in the future.
The Mo family already knew the teaching schedule and the couple were quite satisfied with the arrangement.
"You are busy driving all day. Don't teach in the past two days. Play in this county, take a break for two days, and then teach the children."
Mrs. Tang said another concern and asked the couple to go back and rest first.
Valley clogs
When Mrs. Mo went shopping that day, her mother bought her some gifts for the Tang family. Even if the adults don’t give it to her, maybe they won’t care.
But the child, especially Mrs. Tang's two legitimate grandsons, had already prepared a meeting gift when she came to have dinner, but she had not had time to deliver it.
Mrs. Mo gave golden locks to both prospective students in the living room.
"Thank you, sir!" Tang Shunyan received the gift and bowed politely. He thought that the elders would definitely accept it, so he did not refuse.
The younger doll didn't speak much language after receiving the gift. At this time, the little doll was about to go to bed, and her eyes were a little confused.
When Grandma Tang saw this, she gave her children a golden lock, and then she felt a little relieved. She had forgiven them for her thoughts that she wanted to make things difficult for her husband and wife before.
Mrs. Tang had already learned about the situation of their husband and wife in the county and could get the money to his grandson. This may not be the money of Mrs. Mo and her husband, but perhaps it was a gift bought by her family.
She didn't say anything else, and decided to take care of the couple's expenses in the house in the future.
The Mo family returned with peace of mind. The Tang family arranged for them to live in the yard. The place they lived was a little remote than other places, close to the street outside. This arrangement was made because they gave them a quieter residence.
The couple liked this courtyard that was far away from the other address of the Tang family. It was not close to their yard, so it was quieter and there was no need to conflict with others.
The couple had already washed up before. Although it was summer, they were sweating all over while eating. Later, when Grandma Tang talked to them, they secretly broke out in cold sweat.
The couple cleaned their face and foot wash water for them, and then cleaned them again. The maid helped them get it done and went out. This yard is not just the maid brought by Mrs. Mo. There are also the mother-in-law who washes clothes in this yard, and she also worked part-time to make the night fragrance.
The little maid who works as a treacherous worker and the mother who guards the door also works part-time to sweep the floor and cut the flowers and plants in the yard.
They lay quietly on the bed. Mo Shusheng held his wife and didn't bother him. He didn't feel hot in the yard. The air was very good, and the room was filled with ice. He looked at his wife with a happy look and said:
"Madam, let's teach our children well in the future and have a stable life."
Mrs. Mo looked at her husband gently, and her heart was filled with happiness and warmth. She would live a happy life without the pressure of life in the future.
"Well, husband, you don't have to go out to set up a stall to sell calligraphy and paintings, you may have more time to read books."
"Well, that's right. Different environments may be beneficial to my reading."
Shusheng Mo was teaching, but he did not give up on the chance to take the exam after reading.
He just postponed the exam for a year or two, lived a good life, and then had the money to support the next generation.
In an unfamiliar environment, they would sleep uneasy. The couple fell asleep sweetly that night, but they slept well.
The next day, the couple did not go to another yard for breakfast. The maid brought them breakfast from the big kitchen. The couple ate this simple but delicious breakfast.
I noticed when I came yesterday that the Tang Mansion is not far from the lively street outside.
I didn’t arrange a carriage and chose to walk, so I didn’t want to bother the Tang family.
