Chapter 100: Shen Zhong's Reputation
"Ah Zhong's daughter-in-law, you just need to be full, why do you still use rice, it's a precious thing, you have to use two or three catties for this meal!" There is also this pork, just put two less pieces and a little meaty, this large piece is enough for a large family to use for the New Year. Gee! What a waste! "The Zhou family is thrifty, how much silver are these things worth! It's painful enough.
"Yes! As long as it is full, it is a village, and no one can find out the courtesy. Besides, don't you pay your wages? The Zheng family also felt that the Shen Zhong family was a little too generous.
Xiao Wang's family was originally a person who didn't pay attention, in fact, she was also distressed, these were all set by the two girls Xiaochun and Xiaoxia, and now I feel reasonable to hear the two sisters-in-law say this.
Fortunately, Xiao Xia followed, she was afraid that Xiao Wang's would not be assertive, and what others said was what it was.
"Auntie, aunt, my father and mother are so enthusiastic about helping the villagers, and I can't help it, so I have to entertain a good meal to express my gratitude."
"What is grateful or not, you two are real." Zhou felt comfortable listening to it, her family had three people, and the eldest son had also come to help, and the family could not only earn forty-five yuan a day, but also eat meat at noon, where to find such a good job.
"Sister-in-law Ah Zhong will have a good life in the future, this big house with red bricks and green tiles will be envied by the whole village!" Zheng's mouth began to sour as he spoke, the two families were neighbors, and the life of Xiao Wang's family in the past was simply inferior to pigs and dogs, and she couldn't compare. Now people are trampling themselves in the mud!
The kitchen is busy while chatting about homely things, and after a while, the aroma of the food wafted out, and the working man's nose smelled, and he knew that there was definitely meat at noon, and it had been more than four months since the end of the New Year, and he had not smelled meat for more than four months.
"This Shen Zhong is kind, everyone should know when they smell it, there is meat at noon, work hard, don't fool my brother Shen Zhong." Shen Lian, as the leading helper, of course, had to give full play to his residual heat, and shouted from time to time.
"That's for sure, if you lay the foundation firmly, you can't shake it for three or five hundred years, even rats don't want to get into it. That's right, brothers. ”
"Yes, yes."
The construction site over there was also in full swing, and the weather was not hot, but the men were still sweating.
Koharu and Konatsu brought water to the helpers every other hour, and put a little salt in the water to prevent the men from sweating too much and getting dehydrated.
When it was time for lunch, four large tables were set up, and the dishes were all served in large basins, and the potatoes were stewed, with fewer potatoes and more pieces of meat, and the bone broth was boiled thickly, and the oil was floating on the top. Just looking at it makes you have an appetite.
The men didn't give a thumbs up to Shen Zhong and his wife, which was interesting and exquisite.
The enthusiasm in the afternoon is even more sufficient, and there is no need for Shen Lian to shout, the men themselves will shout, you and I will say one sentence, not only is it in full swing, it is simply a heat wave rolling infinitely high.
"Brothers, brothers, I have good news for the big guys, the owner said that our wages will be paid every day before sunset." Shen Lian shouted loudly, everyone exploded, and there was such a good thing?
Where to work, wages are rarely settled, the fastest is also a ten-day settlement, not in arrears is good, when you encounter a bad owner arrears is not counted, may work in vain and finally yellow. The daily wage is the most reassuring.
"Shen Zhong is righteous enough."
"Exquisite! Knowing that it is not easy for us, this is to help us. ”
"Yes, yes, there are helpers who provide food, not to mention the wages who are paid, and the wages are still so high."
"Shen Zhong is developed, and he hasn't forgotten our folks, it's interesting enough."
Shen Zhong was not idle, his own family did his work harder than anyone else, and at this time, he was praised by everyone like this in front of him, and he didn't know what to do, scratching his head and laughing stupidly.
Before the time came, a small table was set up on the construction site, and Shen Zhong held a heavy basket and put it on the table.
Koharu was assigned to sit behind a desk and count the copper plates, and Shen Zhong came to pay the salary.
Xiaochun sat down with a red face, it was the first time she had done such a big thing to show her face, and she was so nervous.
"Sister, don't worry! Xiaoqiu and I are watching from the sidelines, you can definitely do a good job. "Xiao Xia cheered up Xiao Chun, this is a good opportunity to exercise, and Xiao Chun's courage has been trained, which is only good for her future.
"Got it, don't make trouble with you two little devils!" Koharu built himself in his heart for a long time, sighed, and finally relaxed a little.
"After work, after work, they all came here to receive money." As soon as Shen Lian shouted, the helpers who had already noticed the movement on this side smiled.
"Don't crowd everyone in line, no one is indispensable." Shen Lian was happy for his good buddy, and he felt a face himself.
The helpers all brought their own guys for work, consciously lined up, and their eyes were looking forward.
I saw Xiaochun lift the cloth on the basket, and it was full of copper plates, Xiaochun quickly and skillfully counted out fifteen and handed it to Shen Zhong, Shen Zhong counted it again, handed it to the man at the front, and said thank you.
"The daughter of the Shen Zhong family is really capable!"
"Yes, count the copper plates, and I will live a good life in the future."
"It's a pity that my family doesn't have a son, otherwise I would go to Shen Zhong's house to propose marriage."
The men in line didn't stop, and they started to joke again, Shen Xiaochun's face was even redder when he was praised, but there was no mistake in the work in his hand.
The first day of Shen Zhong's family was so lively and lively, and the helpers also ate meat and received their wages, so they were not happy.
Aunt Zhou and Aunt Zheng, who helped cook the rice, finished their work early in the afternoon, received today's wages and went to the house, and the two also took away a large bowl of potato stew that had not been touched at noon, and the smile on their faces never broke. Aunt Zheng's little jealousy is gone, but she has received too many benefits, and she can't be jealous.
The family walked towards the Shen family's large courtyard with the afterglow of the setting sun, each with a smile on their faces.
Shen Zhong was unprecedentedly sought after and praised today, as well as the respect of everyone for him, he finally experienced the sense of honor and pleasure after being praised and respected as the head of the family. In the past, this was the treatment that only the third brother would have, and when people mentioned the son of Shen Shouli's family, they would only think of the smart third brother or the capable eldest brother, who was always forgotten by everyone. Such a change made Shen Zhong happy, and he was about to float when he walked.
Of course, Xiao Wang's is also happy, and she feels happier than anything else that her own man is amazing.
And the three sisters are all happy because the family has really built a house.
It's a pity that this pleasant atmosphere dissipated when it entered the courtyard of the Shen family. The things in their two houses were thrown all over the yard, and the quilts were scattered on the ground in the yard, and they were all rolled with mud. Pots and pans were kicked everywhere, shattered, deflated. The lock on the only wooden box in the second house was also picked open, and the clothes inside were turned to shreds.
