Chapter 218 The Sour Chapter in the Village

The next day, Old Man Su had decided on a candidate and went straight to the headman's house.

The head of the village smiled and had no objection to the people mentioned by Old Man Su. He just told Old Man Su to make the decision.

As long as this person is from Yunli Village, there will be no objection to recruiting anyone as the village head.

The families who used to work in the Su family's sweet potato noodle workshop are now living a much better life than before, and occasionally you can see them cutting meat to take home to eat.

This would have been unthinkable in the past, and the Su family was very kind in this matter.

Although his family was living a good life, he did not forget to help the people in the village. Not only did he pay them high wages, but he also gave them gifts during festivals.

It’s no worse than the work in that town.

"By the way, I would like to invite Youde's wife to work as a manager in the new workshop. What do you think?"

Youde is the eldest son of the village head. Today he was helping to build the wall and set up the shed at the Su family's newly built workshop.

Last time, I asked him to help out as well. The wages were paid on a daily basis and the salary was not low.

Old Man Su thought about this matter again and again before making the decision.

The Su family is now planning to open a new workshop, but they are afraid that those who are not hired to work in their workshop will have some opinions.

If time goes on, there will definitely be some rumors. This virtuous daughter-in-law has a strong temper and can control people.

He mentioned this to the Su family yesterday, and everyone thought it was feasible. The workshop just needed someone who could manage it to help keep an eye on it.

Moreover, she is the daughter-in-law of the village head. With this relationship, I believe those people with bad intentions would not dare to say anything more.

The head of the village was delighted to hear what Old Man Su said.

The Su family's current life is not comparable to that of ordinary people. Even though he is the head of a village, the family's income only comes from their few acres of land.

Compared with other families in the village, their living conditions are a little better, but generally speaking, they are also more frugal.

If his virtuous daughter-in-law could work in the Su family workshop, the wages would not be low, which would naturally be good.

Originally, he had the same idea, but as the head of the village, he couldn't bring it up. Now that Old Man Su said it himself, he was naturally grateful.

"Really? That's fine. I'll talk to Youde's wife about this later. This is a good thing."

After leaving the headman's house, Old Man Su also went to several other families and made an agreement with them. They would start work in the Su's new workshop in a few days, and the salary would be the same as those in the sweet potato flour workshop.

Within half a day, the news spread throughout the village.

Those who were able to work in the Su family workshop were naturally very happy, and those who were not selected naturally felt a little jealous.

"If you ask me, this is unfair. Why can those few people go? They usually don't even dare to fart."

A slightly plump woman said this with an unwilling look on her face.

"That's right. We are much more skillful than those guys. Could it be that the Su family has some selfish motives?"

"The Su family is living such a good life now, they should help us. Seeing how hard our life is, they are really cruel."

Several women gathered together, becoming more and more angry as they talked, and looked like they couldn't wait to go to the Su family to reason.

Zhao, the virtuous daughter-in-law who happened to be passing by, heard what they were saying becoming more and more outrageous, and her face suddenly turned dark.

Her father-in-law had just told her this morning that the Su family wanted her to be a manager in their newly opened workshop, and she was very happy.

Although my father-in-law is the head of the village, the family situation is not that good. It is naturally a great thing for me to be able to work in the Su family's workshop.

The wages paid by the Su family workshop are not low. With this income, the family's life will be better in the future. Once they save more money, they can find a good marriage for their son.

But now I hear those people in the village who can’t stand others doing well say these nasty things behind their backs.

It's really irritating to hear now. Don't they know why they were not selected?

Not to mention the Su family, she even looks down on them. They just do lazy things all day long, and when they get together they just gossip about other people's families.

I'm still thinking about going to the Su family to work, what a daydream.

Thinking of this, Zhao stopped and couldn't help but cough twice.

"I think some people just say the grapes are sour because they can't eat them, and they just keep complaining behind people's backs."

Why didn't she go to the Su's house to tell her father-in-law if she was so powerful? Why didn't she go and tell him in person?

If other people in the village heard it, they would be drowned by their spit.

Hearing the voice, the faces of several women changed. They turned around and were about to argue, but when they saw that the person who spoke was Zhao, the virtuous daughter-in-law of the head of the village.

Suddenly his face turned pale and red.

Not to mention that Zhao was originally a bit hot-tempered and dared to say anything, even if all of them put together they might not be able to win the argument.

What's more, Zhao was the virtuous daughter-in-law of the head of the village. If she reported what they had just said to the head of the village, they would be in trouble.

Maybe the men in the family would be called in and scolded, and then they would naturally not be any better off.

Zhao looked at their expressions, glanced at them, and looked disdainful.

With such courage, you still dare to speak ill of others behind their backs. You are so cowardly.

"Oh, we are just talking casually, don't take it seriously."

A woman spoke tremblingly, thinking something was wrong, and quickly turned and ran away.

Seeing this, the others also dispersed.

Seeing this situation, Zhao shook her head in disdain and walked back to her own field.

The Su family bought a new ox cart, and now it is much more convenient for Su Danian and Su Dawu to go to Xujia Village.

Just as they were about to go out, Su He helped to pack the baskets while instructing Su Danian,

"Father, I think you guys remember what I said before."

Once the wall and shed on the other side were completed, the workshop officially started operation.

The Su family will need more duck eggs in the future, and the amount of duck eggs collected from Xujia Village may not be enough.

Su He told the two to talk to her uncle Xu Qingshan when they arrived at Xujia Village and that they could go to the surrounding villages to collect the goods, and the difference in price would be given to the Xu family.

In the future, the Xu family will have more income.

Su Danian responded with a smile.

"Father has made a note of it. Your uncle has taken this matter to heart. He knows where there are duck farms around here. This matter can't be delayed."

Collecting duck eggs can earn more money than doing odd jobs in town, so Xu Qingshan took it seriously.

Su Danian would go to Xujia Village every few days. He knew best the changes in the situation at his younger sister's home.

Since the family split up, there was the job of collecting duck eggs, in addition to the embroidery work done by Xu Lian.

Not only are the Xu family's lives much better now, they have also saved some money. The last time Su Xiaoyun went to the Xu family, she said she wanted to send Xu Yuan to school.

Su Danian was also happy to see his younger sister living a good life.
