Chapter 102

She instructed Aunt Zhang and the others to pack the two varieties in the same way for easy counting.

Unexpectedly, the day\'s yield was quite high, with a total of two hundred jars, mainly due to the time-consuming cleaning and sun-drying.

One hundred jars for each variety, stored in two separate warehouses.

"Luo Ge, these are the ones we broke while working. Calculate how much money it is, and deduct it from our wages."

After Luo Ge finished the calculation, the usually cheerful Ma Feng Auntie shrank her neck, and her tone became somewhat cautious.

Even though they were from the same village, of the same clan, and younger, Luo Ge was still their master now.

On the first day working for the master\'s family, she had broken so many valuable items. No matter how outspoken she usually was, she couldn\'t hold her head up at the moment.

She was filled with guilt, blaming herself for not being careful enough and not doing the job well.

"Take the rest and share them among yourselves."

However, to her surprise, upon hearing this, Luo Ge just turned to look at her son, picked out two, and said that to her.

Breakage during production was perfectly normal, and Luo Ge had anticipated it.

With these delicate and fragile items, even with the utmost care, some breakage was inevitable. Moreover, ordinary chicken and duck eggs from everyone\'s homes were also mixed in.

She had expected more breakage, but it was only a dozen or so, less than twenty.

With a yield of over six thousand, and only that small amount of breakage, it proved that they had been extremely careful.

Most of them were just cracked, with small openings, and none were completely smashed.

This alone was enough to prove their carefulness.

Although the loss was within an acceptable range and not much, it was still more than Luo Ge\'s family could handle on their own.

After all, they had been eating eggs almost every day lately, and they really didn\'t want to eat any more, so they just shared some.

"Ah?"

Hearing Luo Ge\'s words, Ma Feng Auntie was dumbfounded, clearly not understanding.

Shouldn\'t they be deducting wages? Why were they sharing it instead?

This couldn\'t be a farewell gift, right?

The others who had followed to apologize clearly had the same thought as Ma Feng Auntie.

Seeing their increasingly tearful expressions, Luo Ge couldn\'t help but smile.

"Auntie, don\'t overthink it. We know eggs are fragile, so this breakage is normal.

With such a high yield and only this much breakage, I can see you\'ve been very careful. Why would I blame you?"

"It\'s just that our family has also had a lot of broken eggs during this period of collecting and making eggs.

We couldn\'t bear to waste them, and once they\'re broken, they can\'t be used as eggs anymore, so you can probably guess how we\'ve been dealing with them."

"Now we\'re having a hard time processing them all, so this time we\'ll have to trouble you all to help us deal with them."

Luo Ge said with a smile, pulling Ma Feng Auntie\'s arm.

While relieving their worries, she also expressed her helplessness.

"How can this be called help? This is taking your kindness."

"Taking wages and taking kindness, how can we accept this?"

Hearing this, Luo Ge\'s smile only broadened, and she jokingly said, "How could it be? If everyone helps this terrible master\'s family with their best efforts, wouldn\'t that be great?"

Hearing this, everyone was stunned, and then they all laughed.

However, while she joked, she also had to address the serious matter.

Taking this opportunity, Luo Ge also discussed the issue of controlling the waste.

"Let\'s keep an eye on it for the next few days and estimate the approximate breakage amount. Then we\'ll set a range based on the estimated breakage.

If it exceeds the range, you all can\'t blame us for being stingy and deducting wages, alright?"

Hearing Luo Ge\'s slightly playful words, everyone laughed.

"Don\'t worry, we won\'t."

They felt this was reasonable. The estimated amount would be the normal breakage under regular circumstances.

If the actual breakage exceeded the normal amount, then it would certainly be their own fault.

So deducting wages would be justified, which was fair.

Hearing their agreement, Luo Ge nodded, and with the work hours over, she bid them farewell.

However, not all of the daily breakage would be shared with Ma Feng Auntie and the others. The construction workers could also get a share.

It was like the employee benefits many jobs offer nowadays – providing employees with some benefits within an affordable range was feasible.

This was also beneficial for leading a team.

...

"Wife, I\'m back."

Just as Luo Ge and the little ones entered the kitchen and started cooking, Gu Jinchen\'s voice came from outside.

After parking the carriage, Gu Jinchen entered the kitchen.

He handed a small bag of snacks to the two little ones, while the remaining large parcels were for Luo Ge.

"I bought you some new outfits. You should take a look first."

Gazing at her eagerly, he had the look of someone presenting a treasure, making Luo Ge laugh.

"I\'m cooking now. Can I look at them later?"

"It\'ll be dark later, and the light won\'t be as good. Look at them first, and I\'ll make dinner."

Seeing his insistence, Luo Ge could only smile and agree.

"Okay."

Taking the parcels to their room, she noticed there were also clothes for the two little ones and set them aside.

She took out the outfits he had bought for her and glanced at them, then paused when she saw the receipts beneath, before smiling.

She knew this man wasn\'t as rough as he appeared on the surface, but she didn\'t expect him to be so thoughtful.

He had even prepared outfits for her from now until the end of her pregnancy.

Apart from the clothes for her to wear in the near future and for the two little ones, the parcels contained receipts for the outfits he had ordered.

"I wanted to buy ready-made ones, but the store didn\'t have any for pregnant women, so I had them made instead."

Gu Jinchen came in just as she was smiling and explained.

"Hmm, why didn\'t you buy any for yourself?"

She noticed there were only clothes for her and the two little ones, but none for him.

However, Gu Jinchen just raised his eyebrows playfully, "I saw that you secretly made some for me, so I don\'t want to wear what others made."

Hearing this, Luo Ge paused, her face turning slightly red.

"You\'re hopeless."

Listening to his wife\'s admonishment, Gu Jinchen just laughed and nodded.

"My wife says so, but please also promise me, wife, that after this job is done, you won\'t do it again next time. Obey me, okay?" he said.

"It\'s not good for the eyes," he had heard too many cases of people ruining their eyesight from doing needlework.

"Okay," she agreed.

"So it\'s settled then. You must keep your word and not do it secretly anymore."

"I know," she said.
