A strong farm girl is busy getting rich

Shen Qingqian did not comment and said, "Uncle, Auntie, the reason why I mentioned this to you is because I want to build a greenhouse on ten acres of land. In this way, I need some manpower.

I am thinking of letting my uncle and cousin Cheng Gang work for me, each of them will be paid 15 cents a day, what do you think of my uncle?"

Shen Fukui and Li looked at each other and said, "Fifteen cents a day is a lot of money! Thirty cents a day for two people. Of course, your uncle and your cousin are willing to go!"

He seemed to remember something and asked Shen Qingqian: "But girl, what is this greenhouse?"

Shen Qingqian patiently explained: "A greenhouse is just like building a house. You build a shed above the field to cover the land, and you can grow all kinds of vegetables inside."

Shen Fukui looked at Li again, seemed a little surprised, and asked: "Girl, in this winter, can you really grow vegetables by building a shed?"

Shen Qingqian smiled and said, "Of course. Uncle, since you are all willing, then start working tomorrow. The wages will be paid every two weeks.

Oh, by the way, tomorrow you and cousin Cheng Gang should go find Shen Tiezhu and ask him to take you there. He will also tell you the specific steps."

At this time, Shen Xiuxiu pushed the door open and came in, looking at Shen Qingqian, pulling at her clothes with both hands, and asked, "Qingqian, I heard everything you said to my parents just now.

I want to ask, do you need women to build greenhouses? I also want to make a living."

Shen Qingqian looked at her. She was in her early twenties, with dry yellow hair, a haggard appearance, and an old cotton coat full of patches.

At this moment, only those eyes were bright, looking at her expectantly.

Shen Qingqian said: "Sister Xiuxiu, building a greenhouse requires setting up the frame and fixing it, which all requires strength. I'm afraid a woman can't do it."

The light in Shen Xiuxiu's eyes dimmed little by little.

Shen Qingqian thought about how difficult life was for a divorced woman in this era!

In addition to having to endure the strange looks from outsiders, even survival is a problem!

Fortunately, her family was kind enough to take her in and give her a place to stay. Otherwise, she would have died!

Shen Qingqian sighed and said, "Sister Xiuxiu, do you really want to make a living? Is it okay to leave uncle's house?"

Shen Xiuxiu seemed a little nervous and said, "I want to do it, but what does it mean to leave home?"

Shen Qingqian smiled and said, "I bought a new shop in town. I can open it after the decoration is completed. I will need some manpower by then, but I have to live somewhere. Are you willing to go?"

Xiuxiu lowered her head, thought for a moment and asked, "What kind of shop is that? What can I do there?"

Shen Qingqian said: "It's an inn. If you go there, you can clean the place and wash the bedding.

By the way, we are also running a hot pot restaurant. If you don’t like the work at the inn, you can stay at the hot pot restaurant to help out, washing vegetables, cutting vegetables, and washing dishes. The monthly salary is 500 Wen.”

When Xiuxiu heard this, she raised her head and said, "Five hundred coins a month! Isn't that more than what Dad and Cheng Gang earn?

Qingqian, I'd like to go to a hot pot restaurant! I can do everything you said!"

"Okay, Sister Xiuxiu. We'll be back soon. When do you plan to go over?"

Shen Xiuxiu looked at her parents and said, "Dad, Mom, I want to go with Qingqian today. Is that okay with you?"

Shen Qingqian could see that Shen Xiuxiu was timid and cowardly, and a little unconfident. I'm afraid she could be on par with the original owner!

However, it is understandable that given her current situation, living under someone else's roof and relying on her parents for support, how can she be tough?

Shen Fukui said, "Go ahead! You and Qingqian and her sisters grew up together. If there's anything you don't understand, just ask them."

Li held Shen Qingqian's hand and said, "Qingqian, your sister Xiuxiu has been oppressed by that conscienceless family since she married them.

I get up earlier than the chickens and sleep later than the dogs every day, but I am still bullied by those damn guys!

As time went by, Xiuxiu became even more timid and fearful! She would tremble with fear if someone spoke loudly to her! "

Li wiped her tears and continued, "Qingqian, Xiuxiu followed you to the town. Auntie asks you to take good care of her and don't let anyone bully her."

Shen Qingqian said: "Don't worry, Auntie, I will never let Sister Xiuxiu be bullied."

Yingzi stood aside and listened to them talking, feeling sorry for Xiuxiu.

She stepped forward, patted her chest and said, "Don't worry, Auntie. I will protect Sister Xiuxiu with you."

Then he turned to Xiuxiu and said, "Sister Xiuxiu, if anyone dares to bully you again, tell me and I will blow his head off!"

Shen Xiuxiu felt warm in her heart. She had lived in her mother's house for almost a year. Except for her parents and brother, everyone else looked at her with mockery. This was the first time she heard someone say that they wanted to protect her!

Shen Xiuxiu's eyes were red. The bitterness of these years made her want to burst into tears, but she finally restrained herself!

"Thank you, Qingqian. I will definitely work hard."

After packing a few clothes, Shen Xiuxiu followed Shen Qingqian.

It was already evening when the three of them returned to town on a ox cart.

When we arrived at the shop, there were already two tables of customers eating.

The shop was filled with the aroma of hot pot, which made Shen Xiuxiu swallow her saliva.

Shen Qingfeng was walking out of the kitchen carrying two plates of chopped mutton and saw Shen Xiuxiu at a glance.

"Cousin Xiuxiu is here!" Shen Qingfeng asked.

Shen Xiuxiu nodded shyly and said, "Yes, Qingfeng, are you busy?"

Shen Qingfeng placed the meat on the guest's table and said, "It's not too busy now. In half an hour, there will be more guests."

Shen Xiuxiu quickly put down the bag in her hand, rubbed her hands on her clothes, and said, "Qingfeng, I came here with Qingqian to work. Tell me what work you need and I'll do it."

Shen Qingfeng said, "There are few customers at the moment, so there is not much to do. Let Yingzi take you to the backyard to find my eldest sister. We will have hot pot tonight."

Shen Qingqian also said: "Yes, Sister Xiuxiu, you just got here, go and have a rest first, then have a good meal in the evening, and it won't be too late to start work tomorrow."

Shen Xiuxiu was a little flattered. When she was at her husband's house, she had so much work to do that how could she have any chance to eat?

I didn't expect that when she got here, she was asked to rest before she even started working, and he also said that he would give her hot pot later!

There are meat and vegetables in that pot, which makes people drool at the mere sight of it. Can she really eat it?

Shen Xiuxiu was lost in thought, and Yingzi said, "Sister Xiuxiu, let's go. I'll take you to find the eldest girl."

"Oh! Good!"

Shen Xiuxiu sniffed and followed Yingzi to the backyard.
