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."
The old lady was speechless.
She rubbed her temples. "Alright, I'll calculate your salary. It just so happens that Second Brother is here in the shop today."
