Chapter 233

"That's alright. You guys also rest early. You can't let Erya and Jiang's siblings start work earlier tomorrow!" Aunt Wang said.

Lin Xiaoyue smiled and nodded.

"Got it, auntie."

Back at Liu's house, Lin Xiaoyue realized that Wang Erya and Aunt Jiang had not yet finished work.

Lin Xiaoyue asked Xiao Qing and Lin Xiaozhi to count the cold cakes in the stream, and found that there were as many as 64 pots.

This number far exceeded Lin Xiaoyue's expectations.

In the kitchen, Lin Xiaoyue went to pick up the work of Wang Erya and Aunt Jiang, but the two refused to let it go.

It only said that the last bucket of lime water was used up, and it was not done.

Lin Xiaoyue was helpless and could only fight on the side.

When the two finally finished the last four pots of cold cakes and put them in wooden tubs, Lin Xiaoyue forced them to leave work.

"Okay, we'll do the rest by ourselves later. It's hard for you today." Lin Xiaoyue pulled the two aside.

"It's been a while, you two have been busy for at least an hour and a half more today."

"Excessive time will be counted as extra wages. Erya's side is the master's work, and an hour counts as thirty-two wen. On your side, Aunt Jiang, it counts as twenty-four wen."

That amount is about one-and-a-half times the basic hourly wage, which she refers to as overtime for the 21st century workday.

The expressions of the two changed, and Aunt Jiang took the lead in saying no.

"How can this be?! It's easy! If we were quicker, it wouldn't have taken so long!"

"That's right, Sister Yue'er, you don't need to give extra money." Wang Erya also said.

Lin Xiaoyue smiled and held Aunt Jiang's hand.

"You have paid more for your work, and you should get more wages."

"Today, I'll give you an hour and a half. It's forty-eight cents for two, and thirty-six cents for your side. This money will be settled with your wages in ten days."

One and a half hours, it is three hours, how can you not pay for overtime for such a long time?

Aunt Jiang and Wang Erya pushed for a while, seeing that Lin Xiaoyue always insisted, they accepted it.

After a busy day, the two were very tired.

Going out from Liu's house, there was a smile on his face.

Sister Yue'er/Girl Yue handles affairs authentically. They help her work and are happy.
