I was divorced because I got pregnant during the lean years, so I went back to my parents’ home and

After dinner, she went back home early.

Opened the refrigerator and put the bracelet in.

Opening the letter from my mother:

I received a call last night. A merchant contacted me and wanted to order our bracelets. I sent him a few styles and he was quite satisfied. He asked if we had any other handicrafts.

I only agreed to supply her with two types of goods, the two with the simplest styles...

After reading this, Ji Xiaobei truly admired his mother.

My mother wants to register a store when she comes back from a business trip, open a Douyin store, do some live broadcasts at night, sell some goods, and then open a Taobao handicraft store...

When it comes to business, she admires her mother.

My stomach gets hungry more and more easily, and I feel anxious when I’m hungry.

She ate a box of spicy duck necks, gnawed on two pig's feet, took some collagen, and drank two bottles of water, and only then did she feel better in her stomach.

Fu Jichang, who was standing on the other side of the wall, sniffed hard. Where did the fragrance come from? He looked around and then leaned against the wall to smell it.

It definitely didn't come from the Black Tower. That guy was snoring loudly.

He leaned on the wall on Ji Xiaobei's side and smelled the fragrance, as if it was coming from her.

She is fat for a reason.

He really wanted to knock on the wall and ask her to bring some over. The smell of the fragrance would keep him awake.

Fu Jichang lay in the corner and sniffed for a long time. In the second half of the night, he fell asleep with a deflated stomach.

The next day, the men who were clearing the land did not eat, so lunch was easy to prepare.

Xiaoju was learning embroidery at the ancestral hall, and Ji Xiaobei was happily assigned the task of being the chef.

Lin and Shitou went out to fetch water. The water in the river became more and more turbid, so they went to fetch a few buckets of water at noon to let it settle.

With so many people, we cannot lack water.

The cured pork ribs that Ji Xiaobei had soaked that day were fished out by Lin and put away.

These two days, Lin was the one cooking, and he couldn't bear to eat even a single piece of spare ribs.

Ji Xiaobei turned out the cured pork ribs, chopped them into pieces with a crunch, put wild onions and wild ginger into a pot of cold water, and blanched them after the water boiled.

Add two tablespoons of rapeseed oil, stir-fry the scallions and ginger, throw in a few wild peppercorns, and the pot will start bubbling.

Cook rice in another pot. When it is half cooked, pour out some soup, pour the cured pork ribs in all at once, and simmer over low heat.

Fu Jichang took Ma Debiao to the river to drink water and met Lin and Shitou.

He pulled it back without waiting for Ma Debiao to drink enough.

Since Mrs. Lin is not at home, Ji Xiaobei must be the one cooking. Based on her personality, she will definitely improve the food for everyone.

Mrs. Lin cooked for a few days and everyone who ate the food felt so nauseous.

Ji Xiaobei went to the backyard and took out a few eggs, beat them and mixed them with tender toon leaves, and made an omelet that was golden and greasy.

After doing this, she wiped her hands and went to the wasteland.

As soon as I reached the foot of the mountain, I saw Aunt Song, with her arms puffed out, trotting towards the village.

Seeing Ji Xiaobei from a distance, he waved his hand and shouted, "Bei, come quickly, hurry up!"

Ji Xiaobei's heart tightened and he quickened his pace.

When they got closer, Aunt Song said anxiously, "Bei, I didn't do this job for you. They want to quit. The new soil is drying up soon, and they haven't picked up all the stones yet..."

"Aunt Song, don't worry, let's go and take a look!" Ji Xiaobei pulled Aunt Song to the edge of the wasteland.

When Ayun saw Ji Xiaobei coming, she straightened her body forward. The other women shrank their necks and looked at Ayun.

"Aunts, you agreed to come to work in the wasteland, what are you doing?" Ji Xiaobei asked with a cold face.

No one else said anything. Ah Yun sighed and said, "Why didn't you stay at your husband's house, Ji Daniu's daughter, come to our Jijiawan and act like a good person? You bought our wasteland and rented our ancestral hall. What are you doing?"

Ji Xiaobei raised his eyebrows and sneered, "You are Erya's cousin, right? If I remember correctly, you are Wang Laonian's wife."

Ah Yun puffed out her chest and said, "Yes, I am Wang Laonian's wife. Why didn't Ji Xiaobei let my Erya come to the field to pick up stones? She and Danier went to find you together. Why did you keep Danier and not my Erya?"

"I'm the boss, I can have whoever I want! If you don't want to come to work, you don't have to come, no one will invite you!" Ji Xiaobei looked calm.

It's not worth getting angry with these people. She has known since she was a child that getting angry is punishing yourself with the mistakes of others. She is not that stupid.

Besides, she has the initiative in this matter. She has the final say on who she wants to use and who she doesn't want to use.

"Dear sisters-in-law, did you hear that? Ji Xiaobei is such an amazing person. She worked hard all day and gave 10 coins to a kind-hearted person. Ji Xiaobei, the married woman from Jijiawan, everyone should thank her quickly."

Ayun continued to instigate other women.

The other women didn't want to hear it either. Just because Ji Xiaobei was the boss, could he be so arrogant and rude? This territory belonged to Jijiawan. Was it her turn as a married woman to show off her power?

There was anger in the women's eyes.

"Ayun, don't cause trouble. How much can you earn in a day's work in the town? There are many people in our village working in the town. Go and ask." Aunt Song said angrily.

"We don't need to ask, it's definitely more than what Ji Xiaobei gives. Why can Da Ni'er from Ji Sannai's family earn 10 cents by making bracelets at home? We can also earn 10 cents by doing such tiring work."

A young wife who has a very good relationship with Ayun said.

"Look at your old hands, which are like dung forks. How can they compare with other girls' hands? If I ask you to weave a bracelet, you will tear the silk thread to pieces." Aunt Song said.

Aunt Song had a big quarrel with them.

Ji Xiaobei didn't want to argue with them. If they didn't want to do it, just get out. No one owed anyone anything.

The reason they dared to make such a fuss was because they saw that the wasteland could not be cleaned up in a short time. The land was dry and it was impossible to grow medicinal herbs.

Bah! Without you, I, Ji Xiaobei, will continue to grow crops. I will go buy medicinal herb seedlings tomorrow.

Ji Xiaobei shouted, "Stop arguing!"

The crows in the surrounding trees were scared and flew up in a large group, making the whole forest rustle.

The women suddenly became quiet. Ayun stood at the front, ready to fight with Aunt Song like a fighting cock.

"Aunt Song, this is half a day's wages. You can pay them. They don't have to come in the afternoon." Ji Xiaobei took out a handful of copper coins and gave them to Aunt Song.

"Bei, this wasteland..." Aunt Song looked at Ji Xiaobei uneasily.

If we don't plant the medicinal herb seedlings within two days, we really won't be able to plant them. It doesn't look like it's going to rain today.

"Aunt Song, please pay the wages!" Ji Xiaobei said, turned around and left.

Aunt Song did not hesitate and stuffed the wages into their hands one by one.

The women who had been hiding in the back and had been silent all of a sudden panicked and looked at each other...
