The Pastoral Empress Merchant

Chapter 110 Digging a Pit
But Mu Jinxi stared at her steadfastly, and remained silent for a long time, which made her heart tremble with fear and uneasiness.

"Xiao, Xiao Xi, you... what do you want?" Li Chili shouted, holding back.

Mu Jinxi hooked her lips and snorted lightly, and said, "What do you think? I bought this tile with real money to build the roof, but now you have bumped into it like this. Either you pay the money , or..."

"Either way?" Li Chili asked with a somewhat wary look, paying for the money, how could she have so much money!

Li Chili is hoping that Mu Jinxi will say another choice that is beneficial to him.

Mu Jinxi smiled slightly and said, "Either you will work with me for free until my house is built. Use your labor to pay for the tiles you smashed."

What?Let her do white work here?

Several people seemed unable to react when they heard Mu Jinxi's words.

The Mu family's house looks like it will be finished soon. Even if Li Chili stays to help out, it won't last for a few days. The wages won't be worth the smashed tiles. Why is Xiao Xi so generous this time? Tolerant and easy to talk to?

Li Chili was also very surprised when he heard Mu Jinxi's words, and asked reflexively: "That's it? This way I don't have to pay money? You won't hold me accountable?"

Mu Jinxi has such a kind heart?Li Chili was deeply suspicious.

Mu Jinxi said frankly: "Of course, I can do what I can say. You will help here until my house is completed, and use your wages to offset the tiles you smashed today."

Li Chili glanced at the house in front of him, and quickly made wishful thinking in his heart.

The Mu family's house looks like it will be completed soon, it only takes three to five days.Three to five days, she has inquired about it, the wages of these craftsmen for three to five days are not very much, definitely not comparable to those broken tiles, if Mu Jinxi is willing to let her use labor to offset, that would be a good thing.

It's just that Li Chili always felt that something was wrong, but after thinking about it, he couldn't figure it out, so he just gave up, because Mu Jinxi was still staring at her, and it seemed that she would immediately pay the money if she didn't agree.

"Okay, I promise you that I will help you at your house until your house is finished, and you won't be charged a cent. This can offset the money for these broken tiles, right? Xiaoxi, I believe in you, you won't come Is it time to repent?" Li Chili said suspiciously.

Mu Jinxi laughed and said: "Why should I go back on my word? If I would go back on it, I don't need to let you choose, I just ask you to pay back the money. I just want to see that you and I are both villagers of Xiushui Village. Everyone bowed their heads and didn't look up, you didn't smash these tiles on purpose, so I wanted to give you a chance, if you doubt me, you can pay me now—"

"No, no, no, I didn't doubt you, no, it's settled, everyone heard clearly, I came to the Mu family to help offset the money for the tiles, and the Mu family will not be able to ask me for money. You have to help me be a witness." Li Chili interrupted Mu Jinxi before she could finish speaking.

A gleam flashed in Mu Jinxi's eyes, and she looked at the people around her with a half-smile and said, "Yes, you have to be witnesses to prove that Mrs. Li has to help my house for free until my new house is completed. It's over."

Mu Jinxi bit the accent on the word completed, and everyone heard it. She was a little strange in her heart, but she also felt that Xiaoxi might be afraid that Li Chili would regret it halfway, and that the house would not be able to play tricks before the house was completed, so she emphasized it so much. of.

So everyone said: "Xiaoxi, don't worry, we all can see clearly what happened today, Li Chili will work with you for nothing to offset the money for these tiles until your new house is completely built It's over!"

Mu Jinxi nodded in satisfaction and said to Li Chili: "In this way, you can come over tomorrow, and you will be treated the same as the ordinary craftsmen who are helping in my house now. Don't worry, I won't take advantage of you. You just have to do me a favor. I won't make it difficult for you, but if you want to play tricks on me, then don't blame me for being rude."

Although Li Chili still felt that something was a little weird, but when he heard Mu Jinxi's words, he still said: "As long as you don't make mistakes and go back on your word, I will never go back on it!"

Doing some work can offset the money of those tiles. Who would not do such a good job? She is not the delicate lady in the city. She was born and raised in the country and has done countless farm jobs. A little work will definitely not trouble her!
Haha, didn't Mu Jinxi say that she was smart?Why did he become so stupid this time, he didn't ask her to pay the money, it was considered cheap for her.

Li Chili thought proudly in his heart, and then quickly said: "Then follow what you said, and I will come to you tomorrow to help until your house is completed."
