Chapter 273

"Now that you open a village school, you earn a steady income of tens of taels a month, but I'm getting poorer and poorer. You won't ask me for rewards in the future, right?" Zhao Jian also smiled.

"That's right, I forgot if you didn't tell me... Li Kan! Uncle smelly!" Ding Shitou suddenly sat up and shouted towards Li Kan.

"Li Kan is my nanny, if you call him uncle, then my cousin should not be my cousin..." Zhao Jian muttered with her lips curled up.

Ding Shitou didn't know whether to laugh or cry, he turned around and patted Zhao Jian with his fan, angrily said: "You want to be an uncle yourself, I didn't call out."

In this era, if there is a gap of more than ten years, if you have no relatives or blood, you can call yourself an uncle.

"People don't get ready until the end of the twelfth lunar month. How about you, Gui Geng?" Ding Shitou thought for a while, and looked at Zhao Jian curiously.

Even though he is thinner than before and has stubble, he doesn't look like a much older person.

"I'm 22 at the end of October." Zhao Jian pursed her lips and said her age awkwardly.

She was seven years and two months older than her, and he had already taken his wife. She had just grown up, so it was indeed... a bit awkward.

"I'd better be my cousin." Therefore, calling uncle is not allowed.

"Hmph, if you make me unhappy in the future, I'll call you uncle!" Ding Shitou noticed Zhao Jian's concern, and could not help but threaten with a triumphant smile.

"I'm going to sleep." Zhao Jian snatched the folding fan that was beating on her, and opened it to cover her face.

"Go to sleep, I still have a debt to settle with Li Kan." Ding Shitou couldn't help laughing even more when he watched Zhao Jian escape, but he didn't continue to dwell on this issue.

She didn't call Uncle Li Kan again this time.Zhao Jian said that Li Kan was his uncle, if he called him uncle again, wouldn't that imply that Zhao Jian was also an uncle?

But she didn't call her big brother either. Zhao Jian is the son-in-law, and he pretended to be her cousin, which is not true.

And she still has resentment towards Li Kan, so naturally she won't be polite.

"What's your order, Miss?" Li Kan couldn't hide, so he had to come over slowly.

"Didn't the person who delivered the letter report to you last night? I have to cook when I come here today, 20 taels of silver! Don't miss a penny, give it to me now!"

Ding Shitou stretched out his palm to ask for the debt.

Li Kan stared at Ding Shitou and remained silent for a long time.

"Why, want to renege on the debt?" Ding Shitou raised his eyebrows displeased, and did not withdraw his palm.

"Here you are!" Seeing that the master didn't make a sound, Li Kan had to take out his money bag and hand over two ten tael silver notes to Ding Shitou.

"Hmph! It's too expensive! I don't believe that so many of you can eat and drink in a restaurant for less than 20 taels!"

When Ding Shitou received the banknote, he complained about Li Kan, and by the way, told those people in the dark, don't think that she is bullying them just because of her master's favor.

Li Kan rolled his eyes and turned around silently.

He didn't want to ask for trouble for arguing with a woman who was too eloquent to offend.

"Shitou, are you cooking for them again?" Zhao Jian understood what was going on after listening to Ding Shitou and Li Kan collect their debts.

"Well, I cooked a few dishes for them while I was cooking for you." Ding Shitou put the banknotes in his purse, sat down happily, and snatched Zhao Jian's fan.

"What about mine, how much do you plan to charge?" Zhao Jian asked in an unclear manner, pursing his lips.

"It's free today." Ding Shitou smiled and played the fan for Zhao Jian, "Otherwise you will spend a lot of money today. I never give massages or back rubs to people."

"Massage and scrub my back every day, how about calculating the money annually?" Zhao Jian turned his head and "looked" towards Ding Shitou with great interest.
