Farmhouse life after traveling back to ancient times

When Madam Mo arrived at the workshop, Jiang Shuimei had just returned after being caught up by Cheng Suying and her men.

Since everyone from Wu's Pickle Shop was there, Du Wenxiu didn't ask too many questions and just told her to go to work first.

Cheng Suying smiled and said to her, "Fortunately, we are fast. If we were a step later, she would have entered the gate of the county government office."

The women who went with her to chase Jiang Shuimei are still covered in cold sweats. They were just one step away. They caught Jiang Shuimei at the gate of the county government office!

But she didn't know that Jiang Shuimei had been waiting for them at the gate of the county government office for a long time and almost came back on her own.

When I saw them, I broke out in a cold sweat. Fortunately, I didn't go back early, otherwise it would have ruined Madam Du's plan.

Du Wenxiu smiled slightly, took a sip of tea and said, "The person has been caught, but it's no use reporting to the county government. I can't say that you are not paid by our Wenyuefang either."

"So what do you ladies think? Why don't you tell us so that we can discuss it together?"

Everyone looked at each other, pushing each other, not knowing how to respond.

"I wonder when Madam Du released Jiang Si Niang..." the brave leader stepped out a step and asked.

Du Wenxiu looked at her quietly, smiled, and said, "Jiang Si Niang brought everyone here to solve the problem. If this problem is not explained, it will be useless to let her go."

"If Madam Du lets her out, we can discuss it with her." The man continued.

Du Wenxiu glanced around and saw that several people took a step back at the same time, hesitating and unable to utter a complete sentence.

"I can release her, but if she wants to hurt others again, we will send her directly to the county government office."

The woman from Wu's Pickle Shop was feeling unsure, but she nodded repeatedly after hearing this.

I thought that at worst I could just hold Jiang Si Niang close to me so that we could go to that scary place called the county government office.

Du Wenxiu winked to the side, and someone turned around and went to the back, bringing Jiang Si Niang over.

Where was Jiang Si Niang taken to before? She was locked up in a newly built building in the primary processing area.

The room was not big, with two beds and a table inside, and nothing else.

This was a temporary resting house that Du Wenxiu specially arranged with the workshop manager. The women took turns at noon, but the manager worked the whole day.

So they built a few rooms for them to rest.

It has just been built and everyone is not used to it yet. People only sit here for a while during lunch break, so it has not been put into use yet.

After only a few days, he used it to lock up Jiang Si Niang, and even considerately poured a cup of tea and placed it on the table.

She was not behaving herself inside, and secretly climbed through the window to look out, watching the women from Wenyuefang carrying baskets and jars, each with their own division of labor.

It was totally different from how busy they were at Wu's Pickle Shop, where they were either asking this person to help or that person to get something.

Compared with the scene here, wow, the work at home is really terrible.

She watched here for a long time and couldn't help but feel a little shaken.

Would a workshop like Wenyuefang, with its clear division of labor and high efficiency, really look down upon cooperating with a small workshop like Wu's Pickle Shop?

Originally, she had been indoctrinated by Wu's aunt and sister-in-law and believed that Wu's Pickle Shop was a rare large workshop in the area, and if Wenyuefang was looking for a partner, they would be the first choice.

But now, after seeing how other people were doing the process, she wasn't quite sure anymore.

At this time, someone opened the door, waved her out, and said that Madam Du wanted to see her.

She also followed the visitor in silence, wondering what Du Wenxiu would say to her when he saw her.

If she was asked to admit her mistake, she would definitely not do it.

If there was any fault, it was the fault of the Wu aunt and sister-in-law, and had nothing to do with these poor women.

When I entered the room, I saw a group of people standing there, most of them were sisters I brought with me.

The women gathered around her, concerned about whether she was suffering.

Jiang Si Niang opened her mouth but said nothing.

What kind of suffering was that? I was just locked in a room with a cup of tea next to me.

Du Wenxiu looked at her and smiled: "Ladies, you are really like sisters, there is nothing you can't accomplish."

Seeing Jiang Si Niang looking at him with doubtful eyes, Du Wenxiu smiled and said, "We were all scared just now."

"So I sent the fastest sister to report to the county government, but the sister who came with Jiang Si Niang stopped her."

"Not only did they recover the woman who reported the incident to the police, but they also asked for Madam Jiang Si to be released. Let's sit down and have a good talk."

Jiang Si Niang looked around and saw that all the women who came with her were looking at her expectantly. She took a deep breath and bravely sat down opposite Du Wenxiu.

Du Wenxiu didn't take it seriously and asked someone to serve her tea.

"Madam Du, you said that Madam Wu did not sign a contract with Wenyuefang, but she told us honestly that our wages will be paid by Wenyuefang in the future."

"You asked us to produce evidence, but we don't have it. But this concerns the livelihoods of our twenty sisters, so I have to come and talk to Madam Du."

After Jiang Si Niang finished speaking, she pursed her lips.

Du Wenxiu looked at her and smiled gently, which made her heart tighten.

"Now the thief is crying thief, if any workshop can't continue, they can just call us to come to Wenyuefang to collect their wages. Can't we all come?"

Hearing Du Wenxiu say this, Jiang Si Niang was speechless.

"It's possible that you don't know who you work for or who you get paid by. But if you work for Wen Yue Fang, I'm afraid we'll know once we check."

As he spoke, Du Wenxiu stretched out his hand, and Guan Shaorong beside him hurriedly handed over an account book.

Du Wenxiu opened the account book and showed it to Jiang Si Niang: "Here are the categories and quantities of goods we shipped every day last month. Even the goods from Taohua Village are recorded."

Jiang Si Niang's face instantly turned red, her lips moved, and she spoke for a long time: "I, I can't read."

Du Wenxiu smiled and said, "Then you can ask a sister who can read to come and have a look."

Looking around, I saw that all the women from Wu's Pickle Shop were retreating again.

"None of you can read?" Du Wenxiu asked in surprise. Jiang Si Niang looked embarrassed and her breath was stuck in her chest.

Du Wenxiu threw the account book back to Guan Shaorong with a sullen face, and said grimly: "You can't produce any evidence to prove that our Wenyuefang has taken over Wu's pickle shop."

"Even if we showed you the evidence, you still couldn't understand it. Now you want to take our wages. Do you think we are easy to bully?"

Seeing that she was really angry, several people couldn't help but feel a little frightened. However, Jiang Si Niang was embarrassed, but she stiffened her head and said:

"Mrs. Du, I heard that your family is from our country. Country people stick to their principles when doing things. We are not here to cause trouble..."

"Bullshit!" Du Wenxiu's face turned dark. He threw the fine porcelain teacup in his hand to the ground with a loud bang, which scared several people and made them shiver.
