38 hired men

Before the Shen family could say thank you, Li Ling had already quickly run towards Wang Erya.

The little radish leader heard that the dog cub was brought to his family, and he was so excited that he couldn't do it.

Seeing this, Shen Shi smiled on his face.

"Thank you, brother and sister."

"Brother and sister, second girl, come and sit for a while!" Shen said politely.

At this time, Shen Shuangshuang came out of the mill with soy milk and greeted the two warmly.

"Aunt Wang, sister Erya, it's early!"

Aunt Wang saw that Shen Shuangshuang was making tofu again, and remembered the two-sided yellow that Shen Shuangshuang gave to her family yesterday, and she unconsciously had a gluttony in her mouth.

"Yo, this early in the morning, Shuangshuang is making tofu again!"

"I saw you made a lot yesterday, can you eat it?" Asked.

Shen Shuangshuang paused for a moment.

"It's not for yourself, it's for the restaurant in the town."

"I went to the restaurant in the town yesterday afternoon and asked, and I sold the tofu I made."

"They think my tofu is good, and they have ordered another hundred catties with me today." Shen Shuangshuang said.

The family has to make tofu every day in the future, and these things can't be hidden, so it doesn't hurt to say it.

Aunt Wang was shocked.

"One-hundred-pound?" looked at the frames in the yard where Shen Shuangshuang was making tofu.

"What's the price?" Swallowing her saliva, Aunt Wang asked.

Shen Shuangshuang paused.

"Five cents and one pound." Still told the truth.

"Good boy!" Aunt Wang was shocked.

Five pounds a pound, a hundred pounds is five hundred pounds!

Soybeans are only 1 and a half pounds, and the profit is ......

Shen looked at Aunt Wang, and suddenly had some thoughts in his heart.

"Brother and sister, I heard you say yesterday that your big treasure and their owner are going to release people?" Aunt Chong asked.

Aunt Wang finally came back to her senses.

"Yes! The owner said that it was going to be winter, and the business in the store was sluggish, and he was ready to let my family come back. Speaking of this, Aunt Wang's brows furrowed.

Her family has no land, so the men and eldest son in the family can only go to the town to help people work to make money.

Before, both of them went to the dock to help people carry goods, although it was hard, but they could get seventy or eighty yuan a day.

But the work on the dock is intermittent and unstable.

Later, the eldest son was lucky and went to an inn as a shopkeeper.

Although the monthly money is not much, it is good to get the monthly silver, and the work is relatively easy.

She also thought that if the two of them worked hard for another two years, the family could save some money to say goodbye to Dabao.

Who would have thought that-

Thinking of her eldest son, Aunt Wang's brows were about to wrinkle out of Sichuan characters.

"Come and sit." Shen Shi beckoned to Aunt Wang and patted the position beside him.

Aunt Wang didn't want to go over, but she saw Shen Shuangshuang go to work.

I thought of something uncomfortable again, so I wanted to chat with Shen to ease my emotions.

"Erya, you go first, my mother will come later." So Aunt Wang said a word to her daughter and walked towards the Shen family.

Wang Erya glanced at her mother and the Shen family, knowing that the two had something to say.

After answering a sentence, he left first.

Aunt Wang came to Shen's side and sat down, and once again looked enviously at the tofu frame in the courtyard of the Shen family.

"Sister Huilan, you are still blessed."

"Both of you have this craft, your family will not have to worry about this day." Opening.

Thinking of her own situation, Aunt Wang sighed again.

"Somewhere like my house."

"I want land, but I don't have land. Now Dabao's job is gone. ”

"Seeing that the second girl has reached the age of kissing, Dabao can't even talk about his daughter-in-law, so if he drags it onβ€”β€”"

"Hey, you can't really take Erya's marriage and go change a daughter-in-law for Dabao......"

Shen glanced at Aunt Wang.

It is not uncommon for peasant families to exchange their daughters for a bride price and then marry their sons.

But anyone who is wealthier or feels sorry for their daughters will not do that.

After all, I really did that, and my daughter went to her mother-in-law's house, but I was afraid that it would not be so easy to raise her head, and even her mother-in-law deliberately tortured her.

"What are you talking about? Erya is such a good girl, don't think about it. Shen lowered his voice and said.

Aunt Wang looked at Shen pitifully, and there were tears in her eyes.

After reaching out and wiping it, he nodded.

Seeing this, Shen breathed a sigh of relief.

"Don't be in a hurry."

"Your big treasure is a good one, now the job is gone, you can find it again!"

"Our Dahe Village is close to the town, and it is convenient to find work. As long as people are diligent, can they still save money? ”

Aunt Wang nodded again.

"Hmm." Answer.

It can be seen that Shen has some bad feelings in his heart.

She has been married to this Dahe Village for more than 20 years, and because she stayed in the Li family, she didn't have a sister who could talk.

After moving here, the Wang family brothers and sisters often came to accompany her and gave her vegetables and vegetables, and she was really moved in her heart.

"I'll talk to you about something." So, Shen opened his mouth.

"What's the matter?" Aunt Wang wiped her eyes again and looked at Shen.

"How about letting your second girl, or you come to my house to help? I'll pay you. Shen said.

"What kind of wages does this cost? Sister Huilan, you need help, just say it! Aunt Wang said immediately.

Shen smiled.

"It's not a matter of a day or two." Go on.

"Shuangshuang's girl signed a long-term contract with the restaurant, and she has to keep sending tofu over there."

"My leg is still injured, and I can't help at home."

"When I came out of the house, the girl was working on everything in the house, and I never saw her idle. If it goes on like this, I'm afraid that girl won't be able to hold on. ”

"You're both really capable." Aunt Wang said.

Shen nodded.

"I won't give you more wages, only twenty wen."

"You and Erya have one, and you can help Shuangshuang make tofu."

"Twenty isn't much?!" Aunt Wang immediately said: "My family's big treasure works in the town, and the monthly silver is only one or two taels of silver. ”

Shen took Aunt Wang's hand.

"You have to bring in the soy milk, and you have to press the tofu, which is not easy."

"Besides, I don't feel at ease if I ask someone else for this job." Shen looked at Aunt Wang.

Aunt Wang quickly understood.

"Sister Huilan, don't worry, Erya and I are just doing things, and we will never leak your family's method of making tofu."

Shen nodded.

I wasn't worried.

After all, her daughter-in-law had already mentioned to her that it was impossible to hide the production method of tofu for too long.

When the two sides reached an agreement, Shen called Shen Shuangshuang and told her about inviting Aunt Wang and Wang Erya to work.

Shen Shuangshuang immediately agreed.

If she can fight with multiple people, she can indeed make it a lot easier.

At the same time, the speed of making tofu can also be improved.

Aunt Wang was very enthusiastic, offered to help now, and took the initiative not to ask for today's salary.

Shen Shuangshuang naturally disagreed, and only agreed to Aunt Wang to stay and help, and insisted on giving half of the salary.

With Aunt Wang's help, Shen Shuangshuang finally didn't have to run back and forth, and it was a lot easier.

Finally, before the end of the hour, all the tofu was ready.
