Dress up as a farm girl and make a lot of money with space

If it was just these plates, maybe Zhang wouldn't be so angry, but she saw clearly that there was no water on the ground. This little pear was clearly lying! Because she was afraid of being punished, she could just make up such a lie. How could she be assured of such a girl?

"Madam, I beg you, I'm just too scared. Please forgive me this time, I won't dare to do it again! I beg you, madam!" Xiaoli was really scared this time. She had never seen Zhang lose her temper like this before.

She blurted out those words just now just to find a random excuse to deceive Zhang and shirk her responsibility so that she could not be blamed.

Even if I cannot escape the guilt, at least I can bear less responsibility.

But she didn't expect that today Mrs. Ma was sent out by Zhang to buy tofu and ducks, and was not at home, so there was no water stain on the places that should have been swept. Even if she wanted to put the blame on Mrs. Ma, it would not work.

Looking at the pitiful Xiaoli, Zhang's heart inevitably softened, and her voice was not as harsh as before.

Xiaoli was a smart person. When she saw Zhang's expression, she knew that she was no longer that angry. She cried even more miserably, with snot and tears streaming down her face, and the makeup on her face was all blurred.

Xiaoli was not very old. She knelt on the ground and curled up into a ball. She looked scared and helpless. Zhang also had daughters. Seeing her like this reminded her of the difficult situation her own daughters had faced in the old Li family mansion.

"It's such a sin that so many bowls and plates are broken!" Zhang sighed. She felt so distressed looking at the broken porcelain pieces on the ground, but she still felt a little pity for Xiaoli's appearance.

"Deduct it from your monthly salary. Hurry up and clean up this place." Zhang said to Xiaoli.

Xiaoli kowtowed quickly after hearing this, but still refused to stand up. "Madam, I beg you, please don't tell Miss about this. I am willing to make up the money bit by bit. Please don't tell Miss, please, Madam!"

Zhang found Xiaoli's behavior a little strange. Although her daughter was a little strict when dealing with these servants, she still understood her daughter.

Xiaoli did not break the dishes on purpose, and she admitted her mistake in a very good manner. She even said that she was willing to use her own money to make up for it. Even if Li Mingxia knew about it, he would scold her, but he would never beat or scold her, let alone drive Xiaoli out. So why was Xiaoli so scared and kept begging him not to tell anything?

"Madam! I beg you! Madam, please have mercy! I will be careful in my work next time and will never make any mistakes again! Please! Madam!" Xiaoli kowtowed continuously and cried one after another.

Zhang felt a little headache, thinking that it was not a big deal after all. Deducting her monthly salary and asking her to pay compensation was already a heavy punishment. There was nothing wrong with agreeing to her request. Her daughter was so busy every day that she didn't have the time to take care of this girl.

"Hurry up and clean up the floor. Pick up the broken porcelain pieces and don't hurt anyone." Zhang relented.

Xiaoli knew that this meant Zhang had agreed, and she felt relieved and quickly responded with a yes.

After Zhang returned to the room, Xiaoli slowly stood up and began to clean up the broken porcelain pieces on the floor. She didn't feel bad about having her monthly salary deducted, as she didn't have much to spend the money on. She had been here for so long and had received two rewards. Even if she paid for these bowls and plates, there would still be some left. However, Li Mingxia must not know about this.

What Xiaoli was afraid of was not how Li Mingxia would punish her after finding out. What she was afraid of was that Li Mingxia would think that she was not a pliable person and would definitely be unwilling to take her to the restaurant in town.

Xiaoli wanted to exchange jobs with Xiaotao, but Xiaotao refused to do so no matter what. Now Xiaotao had officially gone to town, and Xiaoli could not see Xiaotao at all, so this approach was definitely not feasible.

Xiaoli thought that now she could only work hard and do more work. It would be best if she could make Li Mingxia feel that she was a smart and capable girl. Then she could mention it and the matter would basically be a sure thing.

This morning, she wanted to find an opportunity to test Li Mingxia's attitude. She wanted to know if she had the chance to go to the restaurant in town. She also wanted to know Li Mingxia's attitude towards her. However, until Li Mingxia went out, Xiaoli still didn't ask.

In fact, it’s better to say that she didn’t dare to ask rather than that she didn’t ask. She didn’t know why, but Xiaoli got scared and felt guilty when she saw Li Mingxia. She couldn’t ask a single word if she wanted to.

But the more Xiaoli thought about it, the more she started to overthink. She was afraid that Li Mingxia would be dissatisfied with her. If she asked to go to the restaurant in town, what if she was rejected? Would she have no chance at all?

I didn't have many opportunities to see Shen Xing when we were in the countryside. Now that Shen Xing has gone to town, I don't know when I can see him again. If there is another vixen around Shen Xing by then, will I still have a chance?

Therefore, there is absolutely no way that Li Mingxia would know about this!

Xiaoli picked up the last piece of broken porcelain and let out a long breath.

She has already gotten to know Zhang well. She is soft-hearted and easy to talk to. As long as she promises something, she will definitely do it. Xiaoli is not worried about this matter.

She didn't care what Zhang thought of her, because the only one who had the decision-making power in the family was Li Mingxia!

Zhang returned to the room and continued her needlework. She still felt a little uncomfortable about what had just happened, but she remembered that she had already promised Xiaoli, so she couldn't tell her daughter.

After thinking about it, I feel that it is not a big deal, so I won't talk about it. But if it is a serious matter, I definitely cannot hide it.

Li Mingxia's business was booming today, even more than the first day, and it was quiet the whole day with no one causing trouble.

I think what happened yesterday may have been exaggerated and spread out.

The food is delicious and there is a backer behind it, that’s all there is to it.

Li Mingxia didn't care. This was exactly the effect she wanted. As the saying goes, it's good to lean on a big tree for shade. As long as there were no rumors that would affect her reputation, let others say whatever they wanted. Li Mingxia would not explain anything.

Shen Xing saw Li Mingxia sitting at the table drinking tea, and hurried forward to report the details of the purchase.
