Chapter 197: Female Workers

Dong Rong pulled her and smiled, "Don't worry about it, when I was pregnant with Brother Qi'er, Zizhu took care of the food, so she learned a lot of medical science from Mr. Feng." Although this hawthorn has the effect of digesting food and appetizing, it will also invigorate blood and dispel blood stasis, so pregnant women should not eat more. ”

Only then did Chu Silian know that she had misunderstood Zizhu, her face turned even redder, and she replied ashamedly, "I thought that Zizhu girl was reluctant to let me eat it." ”

Zizhu smiled and took a piece of walnut crisp for her, and said, "Sister Silian, eat more walnuts, the child born is smart." You can bear with it no matter how greedy you are, and after a while the peaches are ripe, and Madame will make canned peaches, which are said to taste better. ”

Aunt Yu can now treat her daughter-in-law's belly as a baby, and when she heard this, she even put down the bowl in her hand, for fear that her daughter-in-law would be greedy, "Yes, lotus seeds, in the autumn, my mother must choose the best hawthorn to keep, and when you give birth, let Zizhu help make more than a dozen bottles, so that you can eat enough." ”

Everyone laughed, and at the end they all said that this can must be easy to sell. Zhang Yang had even figured out how to open up the market, Dong Rong saw that there were no outsiders in the house, and said, "This workshop is also a whim for me to play, the three children in the family are getting older and older, and I don't always take care of them." Therefore, this workshop has to be bothered by my brother-in-law. It's better to do this, the income of the workshop is divided into two percent for the second sister to make a private room, so that she always complains that her brother-in-law is busy and has no time to play around with her. ”

Second Sister Cao has been sick and weak since she was a child, and her father and mother treated her with a lot of love, and later when she got better, she was pampered by her sister-in-law, so she had almost no concept of money. A few days ago, I heard my sister-in-law say that she would give her two shares, but she didn't realize that it was a huge amount of money, and she didn't even talk about it with Zhang Yang.

But Zhang Yang was born as a big shopkeeper in charge of the business of the entire state capital, and when he heard Dong Rong finish speaking, he immediately stood up and said, "Madam, this matter must not be..."

Dong Rong let him excuse himself, waved his hand to interrupt him, and joked, "This is my private room for my second sister, you are not qualified to excuse him on his behalf." Besides, when I was making canned food a few days ago, the second sister also made a lot of efforts, and she should share some of her hard-earned silver. ”

After that, she turned to the second sister and asked, "Isn't it, second sister?" Next time my sister-in-law makes canned peaches, you will have to help more! ”

Second Sister Cao was eating happily, with hawthorn stuffed in her mouth, and nodded vaguely, "Okay!" ”

Zhang Yang was helpless, glanced at his little daughter-in-law funny, and bowed and thanked him at the end, "Mrs. Xie gave it generously, Zhang Yang will definitely do his best." ”

"Your own family, you don't have to be so polite."

Cao Pozi remembered the eldest daughter's family who was finally released back to the village a few days ago, and the smile on her face stiffened a little. Although the eldest daughter is really not angry, she is her own in the end. As the old saying goes, the palms of the hands and the backs of the hands are all meat, and now that she sees that her youngest daughter is married well, and she is very loved by her husband and brother and sister-in-law, she inevitably hopes that her eldest daughter will also have a good landing. But after thinking about it, she suppressed this thought again, and she still can't be too greedy.

The sun rises and sets, the flowers bloom, April passes in a blink of an eye, the Dragon Boat Festival quietly comes again, and everyone in the orchard gets a reward of ten catties of japonica rice, a piece of meat and fifty copper coins. Everyone took it home, and the whole family rejoiced and had a good feast. As soon as I started work after the festival, news came out of the orchard that female workers were selected.

As long as there are unmarried daughters in the slope, one family is considered a family, and none of them are sent to the workshop, there are fifteen or sixteen people, plus there are seven or eight daughters from several surrounding villages who heard the news and were accompanied by their parents and brothers, and they also sat together in half a courtyard.

Dong Rong got up early and handed over the child to the nurses to take care of, changed into a slightly luxurious dress, wore a ruby head, and personally went down the mountain to the workshop to interview female workers.

Sure enough, she successfully suppressed everyone in this makeup, and the family members honestly stayed outside the hospital to wait for news, and the little girls obediently took turns to come to her to answer. was naturally happy to be left behind, and some of the girls who were screened out because of their young age and other reasons did not dare to cry, and went out directly to find their parents and go home.

Sister-in-law Liu had just handed over the restaurant to Meihua to take care of, and she was promoted to the internal manager of the workshop again, and she would be responsible for taking care of these little girls in the future, doing chores such as work, eating and drinking.

She saw that her future "subordinates" were frightened by the owner and shrank like little quails, so she hurriedly walked out to comfort her, and said with a smile, "Girls, I will take you to do the work in the workshop in the future." My surname is Liu, and everyone calls me Liu on weekdays. Although our host's status is precious, but the heart is the most benevolent, and it will naturally be clear to you after you get along for a long time in the future. ”

After that, she reached out and uncovered the reed mat on the table behind her, revealing the neatly stacked cloth inside, and said with a smile, "Our workshop will be uniformly worn in the future, and there will be cloth in all seasons. Do you remember it all? ”

There are no women in the world who don't love beauty, let alone some fourteen or fifteen-year-old girls. Almost all of them rejoiced when they couldn't add it, and replied in a loud voice, "Clear." ”

Zizhu wore a sky-blue dress and a dark green sleeved apron, walked out of the room with a smile, and greeted the little girls, "Come, everyone line up to get the material, and when I go back, they will all be sewn according to the way I go." If you don't wear new clothes, you can't come to work. In the future, everyone will earn wages, and how much fabric will not be able to buy, so don't be petty at this time. ”

Hearing this, there were really two girls who were dressed a little shabby and blushed, showing that they must have thought about taking the materials back and keeping them or distributing them to their families.

Dong Rong saw that the little girls were all hugging the fabrics, all of them were smiling like flowers, and she felt that the carrots were almost fed, so she got up and glanced at everyone majestically, and said, "You will enter the workshop in the future, as long as you work well, I will naturally not treat you badly." But if someone is lazy or breaks the rules, blame me for cleaning up with her family! ”

The little girls hurriedly put away their smiling faces, and shrunk their necks in response, "Yes, the owner!" ”

Dong Rong nodded with satisfaction, and then instructed Sister-in-law Liu, "It's not easy for the villagers to come to the orchard once, so prepare some meals at the restaurant and leave everyone for lunch." The girls' table is open in the workshop, so as not to be frightened by the unsuspecting guests. ”

"Yes, owner, don't worry."

Sister-in-law Liu hurriedly responded, and finally personally sent Dong Rong out, and then turned around and greeted the little girls, "Come, I'll take you for a walk in the workshop first." Miss Zizhu has made a lot of good dishes, and we will have dinner when we come back in a while. ”

The little girls ate carrots and took big sticks, and they all became obedient, and obediently followed Sister-in-law Liu to carefully explore the place where they would live for a long time in the future...

Time flies, three days have passed in a blink of an eye, and the carriage of the orchard has driven out of the orchard at the beginning of the hour and began to pick up people from the villages. Soon the newly-dressed little girls were driven to the orchard, and the carriage stopped directly at the door of the workshop, and Sister-in-law Liu locked the gate of the inner courtyard just as she counted the number of people. Some curious handymen had found an excuse to wander not far outside the courtyard, intending to see their sister or cousin, but unfortunately they didn't even see a corner of their clothes.

The news spread through various channels, and soon reached the ears of the little girl's family, and needless to say, everyone became more and more relieved.

In this way, the canning workshop of the Four Seasons Garden was opened. Baskets of hawthorns were taken back, and the little girls worked together, some picking and cleaning, some removing seeds to dry, and some boiling glass bottles, and everyone was busy. Of course, the two technical processes of mixing sugar juice and steaming are still in charge of Cao Erjie and Zizhu for the time being, and they will only be handed over after a few days to find a suitable candidate.

In the first few days, the little girls will inevitably have some errands, but fortunately, they are all ingenious and diligent, and they will soon become familiar with each other, and occasionally they will laugh with each other through cotton masks when they do their work. The lunch served at noon in the workshop is very rich, and the carriage pick-up and drop-off in the morning and evening is very convenient. At the end of the month, the little girls came back with heavy purses, and their families were so happy that they couldn't wait to set off firecrackers.

It turned out that the Four Seasons Garden really did what she said, and their daughter not only gained a lot of weight after doing a month's work, but also took more than two taels of silver, and after two years of doing this, she would definitely be able to buy a rich dowry that made the girls in ten miles and eight villages blush.

Not to mention how happy the little girls were at home, and how much the neighbors who heard the news regretted why they did not send their girls to the orchard. only said that on this day, Dong Rong grabbed her husband and accompanied her to check the canned food inventory in the warehouse, and opened a bottle of canned food that was originally made to taste it, and only after making sure that it had not deteriorated did she discuss the issue of sales with Zhang Yang. Zhang Yang had already planned for this matter, patted his chest and made the ticket bigger, and then rushed down to Zhang Luo.

Dong Rong and his wife walked slowly along the mountain road to the top of the mountain holding hands, at this time, the sun had just set on the west mountain, and the orange-red sunset was still left on the horizon, reflecting the orchard as if wearing a gorgeous new dress. Dong Rong was in a good mood, grabbed two peach leaves and whistled, but unfortunately her tired face was flushed, but she didn't make a sound at all.

Murong Huaide laughed unceremoniously, and naturally got a "revenge" from his daughter-in-law. The little couple just laughed and found a stone to sit down and rest, Murong Huaide took his daughter-in-law and listened carefully to the evening breeze for a long time, and finally said softly, "Sometimes I am really strange, whether the Dong family has excellent feng shui in the ancestral cemetery, otherwise how could such a smart woman be born to you." ”

Dong Rong smiled and put her backhand around his neck, and retorted, "Then the ancestral tomb of the Murong family must have a good feng shui, otherwise how could you be blessed to marry such an excellent wife as me." ”

Murong Huaide loved his wife's sharp teeth, looked up and laughed again, so startled that the birds in the fruit forest flew up and circled several times before falling back.

"I know you have something that you won't be able to share with me. But I don't embarrass you, there will come a time when you feel that I am trustworthy enough, and then I will listen to you. ”

Dong Rong didn't expect to hear such words suddenly, and her body stiffened in shock. She thought she was hiding it well, but she didn't expect to be discovered. It's not that she didn't want to confess those past with her husband, those past lives that she once thought were dreams, but every time she spoke, she didn't know where to start. Maybe subconsciously, she still didn't fully trust him, or was afraid to face his strange gaze... R638
