A car accident, our family of three crossed

Shangtang Village.

There have been a lot of things going on at home recently, and everyone is busy with something. When Uncle Chai came back at noon, Song Ning realized belatedly that she seemed not to have seen him for several days.

"Uncle, what have you been busy with these days?"

"Ma'am, I'm out running errands for the young master."

Song Ning nodded without asking any more questions, "Thank you for your hard work, hurry up and wash your hands and eat!"

After lunch, Uncle Chai followed Hang Shuheng into the study to discuss something.

"Zhang Dazhuang has been found. When I found him, he was hiding alone in the mountains. I took the initiative to throw him into the mountains to feed the wild animals."

Uncle Chai thought that the man would be a nuisance if he stayed, so it would be better to kill him.

"The county government is still looking for the murderer in the woods, but there has been no progress."

As soon as he finished saying this, Uncle Chai felt that it was all in vain. How could there be any progress? If there was any progress, would the two of them still be able to sit here and talk peacefully?

Hang Shuheng obviously thought of this as well, and couldn't help laughing, "Uncle, what do you think about putting the blame on Zhang Dazhuang?"

"Not appropriate." Uncle Chai shook his head. "Those people in the gambling house were all killed by people with strong inner strength. Zhang Dazhuang is just a good-for-nothing. He can't do it."

After all, few people could break someone's neck like his young master, who had no internal strength at all.

Hang Shuheng was silent for a while, then suddenly laughed and said, "Uncle, I didn't realize that you also have a bit of dry sense of humor!"

For someone with profound inner strength, this is a disguised way of boasting!

Uncle Chai had a blank expression on his face and did not respond to his joke.

"Let's not worry about that matter, so as not to attract the attention of the government."

The day when the workshop opens is approaching, and Song Ning is not idle either. She is responsible for the logistics work.

A few days before the start of work, Song Ning found some women in the village who were good at working and wanted to ask them to be responsible for the kitchen work in the workshop and prepare three meals a day for the workers.

Song Ning naturally gave priority to the families who visited each other more frequently on weekdays. She went to greet the aunt from the Sun family, the wife of the head of the village, He Wang, and several aunts from the old patriarch's family one by one, and got the approval letter.

In addition to a few aunts with whom Song Ning was relatively close, they also recommended to Song Ning several aunts in the village who were efficient and nice people, and Song Ning went to greet them one by one.

Song Ning had also gone to ask Damao Niang, a tofu seller in the village. She often went there to buy tofu and thought Damao Niang was an okay person to get along with.

Damao's mother was very grateful for Song Ning's invitation, but she still refused, saying that Damao's father had been chosen to help in the workshop, and if she went again, the tofu stall at home would not be able to be managed by Damao's grandmother alone.

Song Ning expressed her understanding. She had not thought so much before coming. However, even if Damao Niang could not go to the workshop to help, the workshop would inevitably need tofu in the future, and she would be able to take care of her business at that time.

"Okay, it's okay. I didn't think about it so much. Family business comes first."

After exchanging a few words with Damao Niang, Song Ning left, but was blocked by someone halfway.

"Yangyang's mother." The one who blocked him was none other than He Dazhui's new wife, Xiaohe.

"What's the matter with you looking for me?" Song Ning asked.

Xiao He nodded hurriedly. She was recommending herself. "Mother Yangyang, are you looking for someone to help in the kitchen of the workshop? Can I be one of them? I used to work in the kitchen when I was in the Wan family. I can cook a lot of dishes."

She also knew that it was not a good idea to block someone on the way, but if she didn't take the initiative, given the unfriendly relationship between the two families in the past, Song Ning would never have found her.

Song Ning was a little surprised by this and looked her up and down for a long time.

Xiao He has been in Shangtang Village for some time. Now she seems to have lost the temperament of a city girl, and instead looks like a real country wife.

"I heard that your Dazhu also actively participated in helping out in the workshop."

In Song Ning's impression, she didn't have a very good impression of He Dazhui, and she had always been instigated by He Li to do some inappropriate things.

Now that there is a new woman by his side, He Dazhu himself seems to have changed a lot. He has become much more diligent and down-to-earth, and no longer always thinks about unrealistic things.

"Yes! He is a man of few brains, but he has a lot of strength. He can only work hard in the workshop to earn a little." Xiao He paused for a moment and continued, "I can't do farm work, so I can't help the family. I thought that if I could also help in the workshop, then the two of us together could earn more."

Song Ning said as they walked: "Maids from wealthy families are mostly arrogant, but you are a little different from others."

Xiao He said hurriedly: "I know what you mean, but I really just want to live a down-to-earth life. I know my own strengths and weaknesses, and I dare not think of anything unrealistic."

Through this simple communication, Song Ning's impression of Xiaohe changed a little, and in the end, she agreed to Xiaohe's request.

In the blink of an eye, the day when the workshop opened arrived as expected by everyone in Shangtang Village.

After a series of things including the worship ceremony and the groundbreaking ceremony were completed, the workshop officially started.

Almost the entire Shangtang Village was mobilized, and everyone on the construction site followed the instructions of the head craftsman, Master Yan, while Hang Shuheng became a completely hands-off boss.

At the same time, the women in charge of the kitchen also started to get busy in the makeshift kitchen. They had to prepare the meal before noon so that everyone could have hot meals as soon as they got off work.

During this period, Xu has been in charge of the boys' food, clothing, and daily life. With practice, she becomes proficient in this field, and now she is able to take care of many things.

But when Song Ning assigned the purchasing task to her, she was still a little timid, fearing that she would not do it well and mess things up.

Before, she was only in charge of the diet of a dozen people, and the things she bought were not that complicated, but now, there are dozens of people, which is not a concept at all.

"Go ahead, you can do it." Song Ning gave her great encouragement and at the same time sent Chen Laoer to be her driver. In this way, the couple could work together and support and understand each other.

This couple were the first group of people they bought, and Song Ning treated them relatively well. Fortunately, they were diligent and hardworking, and did not disappoint her.

On the day the workshop opened, Zhou Huan and his family came.

As the other apparent owner, Zhou Huan had to be present at the worship ceremony and the groundbreaking ceremony. As for the siblings Zhou Ting and Zhou Ru, they were just there to add to the fun.

"I wish my father and brother-in-law a smooth start in their workshop." Zhou Ru said a lot of auspicious words.

Zhou Ting stood aside and looked at his sister lovingly. He had been secretly observing whether there was anything going on between Zhou Ru and Hang Shuheng. After all this observation, he finally believed what his father said, that his sister was simply not smart at all!

It's a good thing that she hasn't figured it out yet. The family can keep her for a few more years instead of rushing to marry her off to someone else.

Zhou Ting breathed a sigh of relief after getting the answer he wanted. Suddenly, he felt a gaze cast on him. When he looked up, he met Hang Shuheng's half-smile and meaningful eyes.

Zhou Ting was stunned, as if his thoughts were exposed under the other party's nose. He couldn't help but clear his throat awkwardly and smiled back.

When the old patriarch and the village head came over together, they looked at the bustling scene on the construction site and nodded repeatedly.

"Good, good, great." He sighed for a while, then turned to the head of the village and said, "Qingshan! With this workshop, our Shangtang Village will be far ahead of other villages within a hundred miles! Great."

The construction of the workshop is in full swing. Hang Shuheng often visits the construction site and if he finds any problems in the details, he will communicate and make improvements with Master Yan in a timely manner. The progress is relatively smooth.

Where there is a Sleeping Dragon, there must be a Phoenix Chick. During this period, there have also been some people who disobeyed discipline and wanted to take advantage of the situation.

Manager Zhou showed no mercy at all. He settled the wages on the spot and forcibly drove the workers out of the construction site, which led to some unpleasantness between the two parties.

Those people were filled with regret and went to the head of the village to plead for mercy. The head of the village was so angry that he was almost mad at them.

"What did I tell you at the beginning? Didn't I tell you that when you go to the workshop, you must work hard and listen to the instructions of the manager? Don't rely on luck and try to fish in troubled waters? Did you ignore my words?" The head of the village was furious and scolded those people one by one.

"I have tried my best to ensure that every household in our village can elect a person, but it seems that all my efforts have been in vain. You have done it yourself and ruined such a good job. Go away, I can't help you."

The village head sent them away, and then added: "Don't go looking for Shuheng. The workshop is not controlled by Shuheng alone. It's useless for you to go looking for him."

These people need to be taught a lesson so that they will learn their lesson.

Although the head of the village told them not to look for Hang Shuheng, they still went to the Hang family with the mentality of giving it a try. Unfortunately, Manager Zhou was also there.

A few people felt guilty and left in shame without saying a word.

Hang Shuheng learned what had happened from Manager Zhou and expressed great approval of Manager Zhou's decisive style of action.

"People like this should not be spoiled. Manager Zhou, just do your job. If anyone disobeys my orders, don't consider me. Just do what you need to do."

When we were recruiting people before, we didn’t have much contact with many of them in our daily lives, so we didn’t know their character very well. But once we started working, we knew the real deal.

Apart from those who were kicked out of the construction site for disobedience, there were some workers who were not very flexible in their work, but fortunately these people were still serious about their work.

In view of this, Hang Shuheng asked Manager Zhou to be more lenient with them. At most, he could just assign them some mindless work.

Most of the people work harder, such as He Tiesheng from the headman's family and Sun Xilai from the Sun family, who are the ones who work quietly.

What surprised Hang Shuheng the most was that He Dazhu was actually among the people with good performance. This not only made him, but also everyone else look at him with new eyes.

When work was over at noon, everyone lined up in a long queue, each holding a large bowl in their hands, waiting in turn in the kitchen to get their meals.

If there is one time that I look forward to the most every day, it is undoubtedly mealtime.

The food in the workshop is impeccable. For breakfast, we have white flour steamed buns or dumplings, etc., accompanied by a bowl of white porridge, which is quite good.

Not to mention lunch and dinner, which consisted of two meat dishes, two vegetable dishes, and a soup, and the staple food was all white rice. If they didn't come to work in the workshop, how could they have such good meals.

Whenever it was time to eat, many people would despise those people who had been disobedient before. There is a saying that goes, if you don't do stupid things, you won't get killed. Those people are simply courting death. They must be regretting it now!

Not only could one eat such delicious meals while working in the workshop, but after dinner in the evening, Song Ning would order all the leftovers in the kitchen to be distributed among everyone and taken home to eat.

Therefore, since the workshop started operating, all villagers have benefited and their quality of life has improved overall. Many families who only ate meat during festivals can now eat meat every now and then.

The women who were busy in the kitchen would gather together after finishing their work, either chatting or doing needlework.

After working together for some time, everyone has become familiar with each other, especially Xu and Xiaohe.

Xu was fine. Everyone knew that she was a servant bought by the Hang family. Seeing that Song Ning treated those servants well, the aunts did not look down on her.

As for Xiao He, when she came back with He Dazhu, she shamelessly clung to him, which made many people in the village dislike her. But after getting to know her for a while, they found that she was a young wife with ideas and opinions, and she was flexible and efficient in doing things, so everyone's prejudice against her gradually disappeared.

On this day, as soon as the work in the kitchen was finished, the women gathered together to do needlework. At the end, everyone surrounded Xu and Xiaohe, looking at the embroidery they had made.

Song Ning happened to come over at this time. Seeing everyone gathered together, he asked with a cheerful smile: "What are you all doing together? Is there something good going on?"

"Hey! Shuheng's wife is here."

"Come, come, come and take a look. Xiaobao's mother and Dazhu's wife are really good at sewing!"

When the aunts saw Song Ning coming, they quickly called her over to join in the fun.

Song Ning went over and looked at the embroidery works of the two women again and again. Just as the aunts said, the needlework was really good.

Especially Xu, it was the first time Song Ning saw her embroidery. She still remembered that Xu had said that her needlework was good, but she had worked in that family all day and night, and her hands were so rough.

"That's great. I think, after the workshop is built, we can also consider setting up an embroidery workshop or something. I will be responsible for drawing up the patterns, and everyone else will be responsible for embroidery. This way, we women will have our own things to do." Song Ning said half-jokingly.

But she never thought that because of this joke, everyone took it seriously and actually did it very well in the future.
