Danier and the other four girls nodded together and said firmly, "We are not afraid of hardship and are willing to learn. We ask Sister Shen to help us."

Shen Nanzhi's eyes were gloomy and it was hard to tell whether she was happy or angry, which made the children even more nervous.

Shen Huai'en saw her hesitation and said, "There's no rush for this. Let's talk about it another day. You guys go back first and let her think about it."

"Okay, sister, you've worked hard, let's go boil some water."

The children went to the kitchen to boil water and rushed to do the work. Shen Nanzhi couldn't bear it, but when she thought of Jiang Ke's three children, she didn't dare to give too much, and in the end she got hurt.

Shen Huai'en said: "It is not an easy task to teach a good embroiderer. She cannot do rough work and her hands must be delicate, otherwise the material will be scratched.

The most important thing is that these beggars have no identity, and will not be accepted even if they are sent to embroidery shops. They can only ask old retired embroiderers to come back and teach them. Excellent embroiderers pay as much as masters, but they are hard to come by.

So there is no rush to make a decision on this matter. Compared to raising them, teaching them skills is more costly, and it is like raising my own children. "

Even many families cannot raise their children so well. The children thought it was simple, but it posed a problem for Shen Nanzhi.

Shen Nanzhi glanced at him and said, "You know a lot. How can a country girl like me know so many things? So what do you think we should do?"

Shen Huai'en lowered his head and said respectfully, "I don't know what our family does to make a living. I don't have any good suggestions for the time being. I'm just talking about the matter and helping the girl solve her problems."

"You are a good speaker. Your residence is in the front yard. You can find a room for yourself and settle down first. If you need anything, you can go to the street to buy it tomorrow.

Also, keep an eye on that family."

Shen Huai'en: "There's no need to do that. Their indentures are in your hands. Without their identity permits, they can't go out of the county town. The two old men are so old, running away privately means death."

"I see. I am ignorant."

"It's all common sense. Miss Shen already knows it, right? I'll leave first. You can take a rest."

Shen Huai'en also bowed, he was gentle and elegant, even more scholarly than Jiang Chen, and even his coarse clothes could not conceal his temperament.

This person's background must be complicated. I don't know whether it will be a blessing or a curse to save him.

The worry in Shen Nanzhi's heart flashed by, but he didn't take it too seriously. Fortune and wealth are achieved through risk. If you are always afraid before doing anything, you will never achieve anything great.

Being a big shot is also your opportunity. Just be polite to him in the future and don't make enemies with him.

Shen Nanzhi went to see the little girl. Her mother was boiling medicine and the little girl was still in a coma, looking very pitiful.

"I'll go to the kitchen and boil some hot water later. I'll wipe the child's body to dissipate the heat, and then cook some rice porridge. He'll eat something and take the medicine, so he can recover better."

The old woman was grateful and spoke for the first time: "Thank you, young lady. I will go right away."

Shen Nanzhi was stunned for a moment, still not used to people calling themselves slaves.

There was food in the kitchen, which was managed by Danier. She asked Shen Nanzhi and cooked white rice porridge for them, which the mother-in-law carefully fed to the children.

Maybe because he had been hungry for too long, the child began to have trouble eating. I slowly fed him some rice oil, and then he started to eat with big mouthfuls. After finishing a bowl of porridge, he broke out in a sweat and gradually opened his eyes.

"She's awake, Yan'er is awake, thank you so much, young lady."

"As long as he can eat, it's good. Children recover quickly. Take a bath later, eat more, and take medicine on time. It should be fine."

Shen Nanzhi felt more at ease and added antipyretics to the rice porridge. Western medicine works quickly, although it is not an antipyretic specifically for children. Shen Nanzhi reduced the dosage. If the patient cannot be saved, she has done her best.

Fortunately, the result was good and she saved another life.

"You should eat something too, don't just focus on the children, you can only take good care of the children if you are healthy.

There aren't many people in our house, and there isn't much work to do for now. I don't care about the rules, so don't be too restrained."

There was more spirit in the old woman's eyes. She asked her daughter-in-law to take care of the child and reported the situation of their family to Shen Nanzhi.

"My maiden name is Wei, my husband's name is Lu, my husband's name is Lu Dayong, my son was taken care of by the master, and was given a name, Lu Zimo. He has been a book boy with the young master for several years and knows a few words.

My daughter-in-law is a second-class maid in the master's courtyard. Her name is Bai Zhi. If you think it doesn't sound good, you can give her a new name."

"So what did you do wrong to get kicked out?"

Old Wife Wei knelt down and said, "It's not that I don't want to tell you, but it's no good for you to know. My former master's family has a title that has been passed down for generations and is very powerful. This is related to the private affairs of the harem, and I don't want to harm you."

Shen Nanzhi understood. Perhaps she had helped her mistress do something that should not be seen in public. After all, she was a servant who had served her for many years, so she couldn't bear to kill her, so she sold her entire family far away.

"Well, I won't ask anymore, but your daughter-in-law should change her name to Yunxiang, and your son should also change his name to Lufang."

"Thank you for the name, young lady."

Mrs. Wei thanked her and said that the future was a new beginning and that all the past was forgotten. Being able to live in peace with her family was more important than anything else.

Shen Nanzhi didn't stay long. He had dinner and went to bed early.

As usual, I go to the space to take care of the crops, and prepare sweet potato starch, sausage seasoning and sauces. I will send them to Master Ning Wu’s farm tomorrow to start the production of the first batch of sausages.

Uncle Niu was the one who delivered the pork, which allowed him to earn some money. Together with the money he earned from running errands for himself, he could earn ten taels of silver a month.

Aunt Niu continued to sell grilled sausages and run the original stall well. Mr. Ning Wu's people would not compete with her for the business. There were so many people in the county, there would not be only one grilled sausage stall.

Aunt Niu actually earned more money, ten taels of silver a month, the same amount as Uncle Niu, and Aunt Niu held her back straight.

Of course, Uncle Niu didn’t know that his wife earned so much money. He thought that she earned one or two taels of silver, which was enough to cover the family expenses. She still gave nine taels of silver to the family every month, and one tael of silver was used for pocket money and for drinking with friends.

One or two taels of silver is a lot of pocket money. Many men earn only that much in a month. Uncle Niu also treats us to drinks more often, and we can always go to a small restaurant to have a few good meals in a month.

In the space, Xiao Hei felt a little bored. The man had gone out, and there were no cubs to take care of him. A few sheep could not satisfy Xiao Hei's appetite.

"I'll let you out tomorrow. You look listless, as if I'm abusing you. You can't sit still, and you're not happy about being given some free time."

Xiao Hei immediately wagged his tail, ran around happily for a few laps, and kept jumping around Shen Nanzhi, causing her to hold him down. "Go back, don't lick me, or I'll beat you."

Xiao Hei immediately returned to his nest, being so well-behaved and lovable. Shen Nanzhi rewarded him with a big bone and continued to lose weight.

Another half a month passed, and her weight was steadily decreasing, she could lose one or two pounds every day, and rarely gained weight back.

This gave her confidence that if she could lose 100 pounds within a year, it would be a great success.

Skin care should not be neglected. The beauty devices that were previously placed on the dressing table and the facial masks that were hoarded are now used carefully.

There is simply too much time in this space. She has to spend ten nights to last others one night, so she has to waste it well.

Even so, only half of the time had passed when the work was done.

She wanted to tinker with something when she had some free time, and corn wine was her next plan. Since she hadn't found a good winemaker, she decided to try brewing some herself.

It doesn’t matter if she doesn’t know how to brew wine. In her previous life, she liked to hoard books. She would buy any book she liked. She also had a huge study room with a wall full of bookcases, all of which were books, but they were all unopened. She liked to buy books but didn’t like to read them.

When I was young, I was used to working hard and just wanted to sleep when I got home. How could I have the mood to read?

As she got older, she had less energy and felt sleepy as soon as she read. All the books in her room became decorations for her to look good.

After searching for a long time, he actually found a historical biography that introduced the ancient wine-making process. Shen Nanzhi enthusiastically began to make wine according to the records.

Steam the corn, let it cool, then add hops to start fermentation. It seems simple enough, but where do the hops come from?

Generally, breweries have their own unique hops, which they will not pass on to others. Hops are the key to making good wine.

The biography does record how to make hops, which is a purely ancient recipe that uses a plant called Polygonum aviculare, which is said to be very common.

Shen Nanzhi was not born into a peasant family. She had lived in the city since she was a child. She was a typical person who did not know the difference between grains. It was very difficult for her to find a common plant.

After a busy whole day, the time is almost up. I put aside the cooked corn, cleaned up the messy kitchen, left the space, and started the ancient life.

Because she slept enough in the space, she would get up as early as daybreak in ancient times. So in the eyes of outsiders, Shen Nanzhi was extremely diligent and never slept late.

She also thought that this cheating method was quite suitable for family feuds. Since she had to visit her mother-in-law every morning and evening, she could pay her respects to her mother-in-law in the middle of the night, or even keep watch for her. As long as her mother-in-law could bear it, she could stay with her all day long.

I wonder which mother-in-law is lucky enough to have such a good daughter-in-law like her.

Shen Nanzhi couldn't help but sigh. He moved his body, breathed in the slightly cool air into his lungs, and felt refreshed.

"Miss Shen, you got up so early, why don't you sleep for a while?"

It’s Shen Huai’en.

He is tall and slender, with a figure that doesn't match his messy beard, but his eyes are wise and deep.

"Don't you get up so early too?"

Shen Nanzhi was slightly stunned. She didn't want to admit that she was attracted by his appearance. All men are bad.

She had seen too many scumbags in her previous life, and in this life there was also Jiang Chen, who kept her distance from men. Shen Huai'en was so attentive to her, Shen Nanzhi thought he had ulterior motives and was not in a good mood.

Shen Huai'en seemed a little innocent. He didn't say anything, so why was he criticized?
