Please Love Me. Kimberly Tanner GordonЧитать онлайн книгу.
“Do you have any meat in a smokehouse?”
He shook his head. “I can butcher a hog for you, but I can’t get to it until tomorrow.”
Margaret added beef to the list. After completing her task, she began noting a list of chores that needed to be done. It dawned on her to ask Russell his expectations. “Russell, I need to know what you expect of me. Are there any specific tasks you need me to do?”
The younger man leaned back in his chair. “Take care of me and the house, Margaret. That’s all I ask really. If you like animals, you can help me every now and then. They need food, water…”
His expectations were very reasonable, although it sounded like she was just going to be a maid again. Regardless, taking care of one person was mountains easier than taking care of fifty children. She had only one more question. “Russell? Do you want me to clean your room when I clean the house?”
“Might as well. It needs it. Just don’t go through my desk, please. I’ve many personal papers in there.”
She nodded. “Certainly. I would never go through anything without your consent.”
Russell stood and stretched. “Then we’re gonna get along just fine. Breakfast was good. I’ve work to do now. Let me know when you need the wagon.” He grabbed his hat from a peg near the front door and walked out.
Margaret watched as he left without so much as a goodbye or have a nice day. He was kind enough, not cruel at least, but not too affectionate. She sighed and resolved herself to stay busy with work. There was so much that needed to be done.
