Mrs. Chen didn't make much trouble, and after being reprimanded by Old Man Chen, she died down.

In order to avoid unnecessary trouble in the future, Chen Xuejiao personally took out the red and white contract made when the family was separated from the house, took it to Mrs. Chen's bed, and asked Chen Qilin to read it to Mrs. Chen himself.

“…… Milk, you can hear clearly, we use our own land for our workshop. Whether we use that piece of land to open a workshop or grow vegetables, even if we are still there and do nothing, it is also our family's freedom, and no one else can control it. Chen Xuejiao took the contract from Chen Qilin's hand and raised it at Mrs. Chen.

Mrs. Chen couldn't wait to lean over and slap Chen Xuejiao hard, she was not sick, but she was also sick by this separation contract.

Chen Qilin's face was also very ugly, just now Chen Xuejiao forced him to read the contract, and the reasonable and well-founded arguments made him speechless.

"Hmph, that place is the territory of the grandfather and the grandmother, and the milk will be given to you when the family is separated, don't know how to advance and retreat, and take the contract to shout." Chen Xuejiao pouted and said, "You are also worthy of letting my brother read the contract, he is the top of the list of children." ”

Chen Xuejiao was not angry, and said with a smile: "Brother Qi Lin read the contract for the milk, but not for me, isn't the milk worthy of listening." ”

"You" Chen Xue was speechless angrily, and Qi Lin's face was pale.

Chen Xuejiao didn't look at them, and walked out of the upper room with the separation contract.

In the evening, when the tent was set up, and two meals were managed, the people dispersed.

Duck eggs are collected from every village and household, and should not be collected from a single door. Chen Xuejiao released the news, and everyone took the initiative to pick the duck eggs to Chen's house. The villagers raise eggs laid by ducks, and they are reluctant to eat them. They all took baskets to the town and exchanged them for a few oil, salt, firewood, and rice money. After all, it is better to sell the same thing, it is better to sell it to the Chen family, set the price as much as it is, no need to bargain, and how much you charge, saving trouble and convenience. Less than half a day. The Chen family received 500 duck eggs, all of which were placed in baskets stuffed with wheat straw and placed in sheds. Just waiting for tomorrow to start work.

Chen Xuejiao's family worked hard all day, and after dinner, they discussed the division of labor for the next day. Because the August Festival is coming, Li discussed the festival with Chen Xiucai and a few children. Calculate how many mooncakes to buy. How many dishes to cook, what kind of wine to make, all the way to the time of the lamp.

Suddenly, someone knocked on the door outside the courtyard, mixed with cursing, and when I heard it, it was Chen Zichang's voice.

There has been no movement in the upper room, and the stone went to open the door, only to see two small servants fighting and drinking Chen Zichang into the door.

Chen Xuejiao stood at the door and looked at it, Chen Zichang smelled of wine all over his body. Babbling gibberish, didn't he go to pick up the Zhao family? How did you get drunk like this and come back.

“…… I won't come after two pick-ups. When our Chen family is an inn, you can come if you want to, and if you don't want to come, you won't come, and I will write a letter of resignation tomorrow. ”

Chen Zichang scolded and scolded.

I didn't pick up the Zhao family twice in a row, and I don't know how angry Mrs. Chen is.

Sure enough, when Mrs. Chen heard this, she jumped up angrily, and scolded angrily: "Don't come, don't come, I'll send a letter of resignation to the past, our Chen family temple is small, and it can't accommodate such a big Buddha, she thought that her daughter went to Dingfu to be a young grandmother, and her son took the first place, she didn't know what her surname was, she was the daughter-in-law of my Chen family one day, and she had to abide by the rules of our Zhao family one day." ”

"What are you doing, what are you yelling at night, let's talk about it tomorrow, let the third child go to Zhaojiazhuang tomorrow to ask what the situation is." Old man Chen is also angry with Zhao in his heart, but he is a rational and good-looking person, these days, the neighbors come to the house and ask why Zhao didn't come, and he is covered up by Zhao with his mother's illness and Zhao's illness.

When he picked up the first time, Zhao didn't come, Old Man Chen only thought that they had an awkward quarrel, what kind of character his son was, but he knew what kind of character his son was, presumably it was his son who hurt his daughter-in-law's heart, so he asked him to pick up the second time, but he didn't expect that the second time still didn't pick up Zhao, and Old Man Chen's heart was also cold.

It's the August Festival in two days, and the daughter-in-law celebrates the festival at her mother's house, isn't this a slap in the face of her mother-in-law's family?

It's Wen Yan, who spends two days at home, and he also wants to go back.

The noise in the upper room spread to the north wing, they naturally did not wade into this troubled water, and the Zhao family is not a good person, the most is a high and low, in the past, when the family was not separated, she didn't know how many times she had practiced the Li family behind her back.

"Your grandmother is really angry this time, I don't know how to toss your second aunt." Li sighed, she was also a daughter-in-law, and she felt a little pity for Zhao in her heart.

"That's what the second aunt found herself." Chen Xuejiao didn't sympathize with Zhao.

She agrees with Mrs. Chen's point of view very much in her heart, and the Zhao family would never dare to do this before, which time it was either to follow Mrs. Chen's flattery, or because she was standing behind Chen Xueyao and Chen Qilin, living a life of calling slaves and maids in Xuzhou Mansion, and confused her mind, thinking that her status in the Chen family had risen, so she was impatient to serve Mrs. Chen.

She went directly back to her parents' house this time, and let the Chen family pick up two times in a row, for Mrs. Chen, the Zhao family was a naked challenge to her control of the inner courtyard of the Chen family.

Seeing that Qi Lin was older, and a new daughter-in-law would soon be introduced, Mrs. Chen was of course afraid that she would lose control of the Zhao family.

Chen Xuejiao only felt that Zhao's chess pieces this time were too unsuccessful.

However, this has nothing to do with the big house, and their main thing at the moment is still to make money and accumulate family business.

The next day, Chen Xuejiao's salted duck egg workshop started. Yesterday, the ten daughters-in-law and girls from this village and other villages came to work, these people were clean and neat, and had the enthusiasm to make money, plus the pickled salted duck eggs have no scientific and technological content, they listened to Chen Xuejiao and Li's explanations, precautions, and quickly got started.

It takes half a month for the pickled duck eggs to come out of the jar, and these people do not work every day, and there is always half a month's rest time a month, so as not to delay the work at home and in the field.

Not only are these employees busy, but everyone in the Chen family also has their own responsibilities.

Stone is mainly responsible for collecting duck eggs, weighing, and identifying the quality of duck eggs, while Li is responsible for the whole workshop. Teach the hired staff how to clean duck eggs, how to stack them, and how to identify the concentration of brine. Of course, the ingredients for marinating duck eggs are prepared by Li and Xuejiao themselves.

In addition to the salted duck egg workshop, there is also an embroidery workshop in the town, the embroidery workshop has gradually stepped on the right track in the past few months, not worrying about business, and with Wenying in charge, there will be no problems, Li put all his attention on the new workshop. Xue Ru also learned bookkeeping and planning. Li wanted to train Xueru, so he ordered her to keep the accounts of the embroidery workshop every day, and Jing Hao was responsible for embroidery and pattern drawing

Everyone talked and laughed and got the job done. These people are accustomed to rough work, and it is much easier to marinate salted duck eggs than to do rough work in the field. Chen Xuejiao watched from the side, calculating in her heart how many duck eggs could be produced in a day according to their speed. I can't help but feel happy. A month's pickled duck eggs are enough to cope with the restaurants, shops, and vendors in the town.

"Oh, it's hilarious!" Wen Yan picked up the curtain of the workshop and walked in.

Chen Xuejiao looked back, Wen Yan was still followed by Zhang, and the two of them looked around one after the other.

"Sister-in-law, look at you, the people recruited are all handsome daughters-in-law and big girls, I don't know what you think you do for a living." Zhang looked at Wen Yan as he spoke, and the two of them smiled ambiguously.

The people who work unconsciously slow down the work in their hands. looked at Zhang angrily and uncomfortably, and the little girl Xinghua blushed even more when she heard such naked words.

Zhang's words were too outrageous. The salted duck egg workshop is a serious business, and when she says this, it seems unseemly. The Li family is not afraid of being said, but it is difficult for the people who work here not to have any ideas, especially the Zhang family's mouth, grinning outward, it is difficult to ensure that some people's hearts are not jealous of the Chen family's workshop, and it is maliciously spread by such caring people, and it is very fake and becomes seven points true.

"Fourth aunt, what are you talking about?" Chen Xuejiao's face sank.

Zhang and Wen Yan ignored Xue Jiao, and were about to step inside with melon seeds, but Xue Jiao stretched out her hand to stop them.

"Her fourth aunt, what do you mean by this, we are doing serious business, where can you be nonsense." Li's face turned red, and he couldn't wait to raise his hand and slap Zhang.

"Oh, sister-in-law, I can't help others to do other ideas, look at the people you recruited, yo, even such a clever girl has been recruited, you don't feel distressed, you are doing evil." Wen Yan's thin lips flew up and down, the skin of the melon seeds fell one by one, and he stretched out his hand to point at the smallest apricot blossom.

Zhang looked at the joke coldly from the sidelines.

Chen Xue squeamishly gasped for cold air.

"Aunt Wen, I begged my aunt and Sister Xuejiao to come to work, not only me, but also other aunts and aunts in the whole workshop, all of whom are willing to come, we thank my aunt for giving us a way to make money." Xinghua washed duck eggs while countering Wen Yan's words.

"Sister-in-law, fourth aunt, you see, everyone is working. Big guy, I don't know what you two mean by what you just said, our aunts and sisters-in-law here, who is not a good daughter-in-law who respects her in-laws and serves her children, you are so indiscriminately buttoning black hats to others, and you are not afraid that people will accuse you of slander. Chen Xuejiao sneered, pointed at Wen Yan and Zhang, "Only people with bad intentions want to do such improper business." ”

Wen Yan and Zhang couldn't say a word when they were refuted, so they spit out a mouthful of phlegm on the ground.

Li's face was pulled down on the spot, and he pulled Wen Yan's hand and pushed it out: "Her aunt, I respect you as my sister-in-law, and your eldest brother is the same father, you don't know how to advance and retreat, I am your sister-in-law, what I said just now can be said by a sister-in-law to my sister-in-law, I just beat you, and I can't say anything bad to me outside." ”

Wen Yan himself is arrogant, a few days ago, he tried his best to tie up the Li family for the sake of Jin Guanzi, but Jin Guanzi didn't get it, and his heart was already unbalanced. Thinking that she had once stammered with the Li family, who had always been stepped on by her, she threw all her anger on the Li family, and the Li family's words just now were tantamount to adding fuel to the fire, and the sound ignited her depression.

"Don't make a show for me," Wen Yan suddenly smiled suspiciously, "No wonder your two workshops are either widows or beautiful little daughters-in-law, these days when your men are no longer at home, who knows what kind of business you take them to do......"

didn't wait for her to finish, only heard a "pop", and Wen Yan slapped Li in the face. (To be continued......)
