Farmhouse life after traveling back to ancient times

Guan Shaorong felt sorry for his mother, so he suggested going out with her to meet Madam Du. If there was a suitable job, it would be best if he could get more wages.

"Madam Du, although I am young and ignorant, I am willing to learn from you." Guan Shaorong stepped forward and said softly.

"When I was young, my father taught my elder brother to do accounting. Although I was naughty, I learned a few words and used an abacus. I thought if I learn, I should be able to do it."

As she spoke these words, she did not notice that Du Wenchan's eyes lit up.

The old accountant who was originally hired, seeing that Wenyuefang was making more and more money, hinted to Du Wenchan to raise her salary half a month ago.

Du Wenchan naturally had nothing to say and just said she would discuss it after Yue Niang came back.

The workshop was originally owned by Du Wenxiu and Yue Niang, with the Chi family's shares added.

And now that Yue Niang has married into the Chi family, she naturally represents the Chi family.

Usually, Du Wenxiu was the only one who made the decisions on the promotions of the sub-workers and small managers.

But the accounting office was a heavy matter, and she was afraid that if she made a decision casually, Yue Niang might suspect that she wanted to monopolize power and sideline her...

So he tried to reassure the old accountant by saying something, and it turned out that this was normal in other workshops.

Although Wenyuefang is now a big company, the person in charge is still a woman. The old accountant can't help but feel worried, thinking that it is because of him that Wenyuefang has not had any problems with money.

Since he had obstacles in his heart, he naturally showed them in his actions, and Du Wenchan suffered a lot.

When he got home, he told Du Wenxiu that the old accountant had changed his mind and might no longer be able to stay in Wenyuefang. Du Wenxiu naturally understood.

It’s just that capable old accountants are hard to find, and the young ones don’t want them.

If we pick girls, there are very few who have the ability to learn and they cannot even get in front of them.

This time when I was choosing a maid, I also wanted to train one myself, but I didn't know if the accountant would be able to wait...

Du Wenxiu had already prepared to compromise. At worst, he could just wait for Yue Niang to come back and explain everything to her.

But I'm really unsure.

Once resentment arises in people's hearts, it is like a broken mirror. No matter how hard you try to repair it, there will always be cracks.

Now I heard that this Miss Guan can actually use an abacus, which means this matter has some clues and we can look forward to it.

Du Wenchan pulled Guan Shaorong aside to discuss in detail, while Du Wenxiu discussed with Madam Mo the work she needed to do.

"Let Madam Mo know that my workshop has three owners. The other two are still in the capital. I'm afraid they will take some time to come back."

"And the position I want to appoint Madam Mo this time is too important, so Madam Mo needs to try it out first. If it works, I will discuss it with the other two and then decide on Madam Mo's treatment."

"Before that, I'm afraid I'll have to ask Madam Mo to take an ordinary housekeeper's salary first. I wonder if Madam Mo would accept it?"

Du Wenxiu's words made Madam Mo secretly shocked.

I thought I was lucky enough to be allowed to be a manager, but from what I heard, it seems like there is even greater hope?

In this case, Madam Mo had no choice but to respond. It all depended on how Du Wenxiu would arrange her.

"Tomorrow, Madam Mo, come find me before you go to work. I'll go with you and tell you everything about the workshop so that Madam Mo can have a plan in mind."

Du Wenxiu didn't say much to her, just gave her a brief introduction and then spoke.

Over there, Du Wenchan and Guan Shaorong were talking animatedly. Although Du Wenchan was older, she was still in mourning and waiting to be married, so she had a lot to talk about with Guan Shaorong.

The two of them talked about the accounts, counting chips, and what they did every day. It was very lively.

Even until Madam Mo finished her business and was about to leave, Guan Shaorong was still a little reluctant to let her go.

Du Wenchan asked her to go to Wenyuefang with Madam Mo tomorrow, which made her smile again.

"Chan'er seems to get along very well with Miss Guan."

After seeing off the guests, Du Wenxiu turned and walked into the courtyard, smiling at Du Wenchan who was half a step behind him.

"I think she is very different from those boudoir girls. She doesn't have those delicate and artificial looks. On the contrary, she is amiable and we are indeed more approachable."

Ever since the Du family got into trouble, Du Wenchan had to live with Du Wenxiu, and it took her a long time to get over it.

Later, she kept me busy, helping with housework and working in the workshop.

Now that he finally had a young lady of the same age to talk to, Du Wenxiu was naturally happy for her.

After entering the yard, Du Wenxiu saw Qi Sanniang and A Luo helping Haisheng change his diaper in a sheltered place. She couldn't help but stop smiling and walked over.

As soon as she came, Qi Sanniang became a little more reserved. After helping A Luo pass the diaper, she hid in the kitchen under the pretext of washing dishes.

"You..." Du Wenxiu called her hesitantly.

Although she didn't have any special name, Qi Sanniang still paused for a moment. After a few breaths, she turned around, looked at her and asked with a smile:

"Did Xiuniang call me?"

"Yes, come with me." Du Wenxiu nodded and walked towards the main room first.

When Qi Sanniang went in, Du Wenxiu was sitting in front of the dressing table, looking at herself in the bronze mirror carefully.

"Tell me, how am I like you?" Du Wenxiu's soft voice came, like a dream talk.

Qi Sanniang took a step forward and looked from afar, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised. After a long while, she said:

"When you were born, the midwife told me that your eyebrows and nose resembled mine."

"I thought about it later. My eyes and mouth look very bitter, but my eyebrows and nose are good-looking. You can grow them too."

"Really?" Du Wenxiu raised his hand and brushed his eyebrows...

Eye......

nose......

mouth......

"You said you were sorry for me, why?"

Du Wenxiu still didn't turn his head and asked softly.

Qi Sanniang lowered her eyes and thought for a while before she said, "Have you asked the matchmaker about my affairs?"

"Yeah, I heard some things." Du Wenxiu did not hide it.

"Would you complain about giving birth to someone like me? Would you feel ashamed..."

As he said this, he was about to cry again.

"You must have a lot of grievances, right?"

Qi Sanniang choked and shook her head, but then she remembered that Du Wenxiu had his back to her and could not see her.

He quickly shook his head and said, "No, I don't feel wronged. This is my fate. The moment I saw you, I no longer felt wronged."

"I just feel sorry for you... People like me should just die, so as not to affect my children and be laughed at by others..."

Du Wenxiu gently closed the bronze mirror, slowly stood up, and turned to look at Qi Sanniang.

"I grew up in disgust. If I hadn't been taken care of by Aunt A-Luo, I would have died long ago. I thought about it and asked about it at that time."

"Why is my mother not around..."

Qi Sanniang cried even harder.

"When I grew up, I understood. You had your reasons, and besides, it wasn't you who wanted to abandon me."

"Even if I grew up by your side, I'm afraid the situation wouldn't be much better than it was back then."

"But it is you who suffers."

She walked up to Qi Sanniang and gently put her hand on her shoulder. Qi Sanniang could no longer stand, so she groped her way to sit on the edge of the bed, letting her tears fall.

"Let's not talk about the past. Let's just live a good life from now on."
