The fragrance of medicine is alluring, the farm elder sister is cool and cool
Chapter 237: Still hiring?
Mrs. Ruan laughed out loud: "No money is needed, this is the welfare given to us by the employer, and the wages are wages."
Old Mrs. Zhao's face was not very good. Originally, this benefit should have been available to her family. Who would have thought that Wen Qingcheng, an abandoned woman, could really make this happen? Her son went to Old Mrs. Wen's house to deliver goods. He only delivered that one trip and then rested at home.
The second sister-in-law of the Ruan family was still saying that working six hours a day was not tiring at all and it didn't interfere with cooking or taking care of the children. When Old Mrs. Zhao heard this, she regretted it so much.
That night, just after Wen Qingcheng's family finished their meal, they heard Xiao Hei clinging to the gate of the courtyard and barking at the outside. Recently, many people have come in and out of the Wen family, and Xiao Hei is mostly familiar with the smell of these people and will not bite, which means that this time the visitor is a stranger.
"I'll go and take a look." Wen Qingcheng asked Ye Xiuying to put the dishes into the kitchen first, then quickly walked over and drove Xiao Hei into the cage, for fear that it would scare people.
The door opened, and Mrs. Zhao stretched her neck to look. She knew that the Wen family had a big dog, and she was bolder when she saw Xiao Hei locked in a cage. "Mrs. Wen is at home, hehe." Mrs. Zhao smiled and looked at Wen Qingcheng flatteringly.
"Aunt Zhao is here. What's the matter?" Wen Qingcheng glanced behind her. She was alone and was a little surprised that Aunt Zhao came here alone.
"Come in." Wen Qingcheng let her in. Xiao Hei was grinning in the cage, scaring Old Lady Zhao so much that she walked close to the wall.
"This dog is too big. If it runs out and scares the children, it will be troublesome."
Wen Qingcheng saw that her eyes were full of calculations, and she also said that she was a loyal dog, which made her unhappy. Ye Xiuying was also stunned when she saw that it was Old Lady Zhao who came. She leaned out of the kitchen and greeted her with a faint smile.
"Please sit down. I wonder what brings you here?" Wen Qingcheng had a polite smile on her face.
Old Mrs. Zhao laughed so hard that her fat flesh shook. She rubbed her hands and said, "Last time you asked Hongxiu to come to work, we've considered it and decided to let her come. She often said that she got along well with you. You just started your medicine workshop and you needed manpower. She said that she would come to help even if she didn't want money. She made trouble at home several times. I was also considering the child at that time. You know Huzi is still young..."
As Old Lady Zhao spoke, she observed Wen Qingcheng's expression. Wen Qingcheng's expression remained indifferent, and it was hard to tell what she was thinking. Seeing that Wen Qingcheng didn't say anything, she continued, "...Uh, have you recruited enough people?"
Wen Qingcheng felt like laughing when she heard this. This old lady Zhao must have started to get jealous when she saw the two sisters-in-law of the Ruan family working here without getting tired, getting paid, and wearing new clothes. When she first came to their house and said all the nice things, this old lady and Li Hongxiu's husband were afraid that she would cheat them. That face was still vivid in her mind, and she changed her mind so quickly.
"Auntie, do you mean to ask Sister Hongxiu to come to work now? Aren't you afraid that she will be late for cooking for your whole family?"
Old Mrs. Zhao quickly waved her hands and put on a smile: "Why does she need to cook? She comes out to work, and I should serve her meals." Old Mrs. Zhao's mind also came to her senses at this moment. Zhao Yongli could not make much money with Boss Wen, let alone with Wen Qingcheng, where he worked six hours a day and earned one or two taels of silver a month, and the work was not tiring. In the Zhao family, whoever could earn more money was the boss.
Wen Qingcheng smiled when she heard this, thinking that if Sister Hongxiu came to work here, it would indeed be easier for her to live at home, as she would have the power to speak with money. However... Wen Qingcheng had experienced the character of her mother-in-law, and Zhao Yongli was not a reasonable person either. She was afraid that if something happened in the future, she would come to make trouble. It was good to have a good relationship, but work was work, and she didn't want to find a troublesome employee.
Old Mrs. Zhao was just about to mention that she wanted her son to do this job as well. She had found out that a man making glue here earned three taels of silver a month. When the words were on the tip of her tongue, she saw Wen Qingcheng looking at her with a half-smile, neither agreeing nor disagreeing, which made her a little confused.
"Madam Wen, look at this..."
Before Mrs. Zhao could finish, Wen Qingcheng interrupted her. "It's too late to talk now. Many people in the village have been asking about it these past two days, wanting to know if there are any vacancies. Everyone knows that Wen Ji pays well. There are also several people who are related to our Wen family. The position I reserved for Sister Hong Xiu is easy and clean, so many people are willing to do it."
Old Lady Zhao's face turned ugly, but she still maintained a smile on her face and said flatteringly: "Then...what about other positions? My son works very efficiently and is hardworking. You see..."
Wen Qingcheng narrowed her eyes and looked at Old Lady Zhao with a colder look. This old lady really thought about her son. There was indeed a vacancy for the glue boiling position, but she was unwilling to recruit Zhao Yongli even if she could take over.
He had chosen the Wen family first, and Wen Qingcheng didn't get along with Zhao Yongli, so why should she keep someone who made her uncomfortable in her own pharmacy?
"We have recruited enough men. As for Sister Hongxiu, my mother and I will consider it again, mainly because many people have asked about this position recently." Wen Qingcheng sent her away with just a few words.
Old Mrs. Zhao wanted to say something, but was blocked by her. She thought: This little wife is putting on airs now.
"Then I'll go back and wait for the news?" Old Lady Zhao didn't dare to say anything more, fearing that Wen Qingcheng wouldn't even give her a chance. One tael of silver a month can't be underestimated, which is twelve taels a year. Ordinary farmers have no other way to make money except farming. With these 12 taels to supplement their household expenses, their lives can obviously be relaxed.
When Old Lady Zhao returned home, she told her family about her trip to the Wen family. Li Hongxiu was surprised that her mother-in-law had changed her attitude and supported her to go to work. Her eyes lit up and she became more energetic.
"That's right, mother. Madam Wen is mature beyond her years. She is sure to be able to do anything she wants to do. I heard that the wives of Ruan Dalang and Ruan Erlang have both done it for a day."
Old Lady Zhao had a gloomy face and said sadly, "Don't be too happy yet. The concubine of the Wen family said that she needs to consider it again. She said that there are many people who want to take that position. She asked me to come back and wait for news."
Li Hongxiu's smile froze on her face instantly, and she sat down on the chair somewhat dejectedly. "I was saying, such a good thing, how can you wait for me forever."
Zhao Yongli bet on the wrong horse. He was already upset because he couldn't make any money recently. He was even more furious when he heard that his wife had no work to do. He slammed the table and said, "Hmph, what are you waiting for? That's just Madam Wen's excuse. Can't you hear that?"
Old Mrs. Zhao didn't want to believe that the duck she had caught flew away. "Not necessarily. If things go wrong, it might be better to let Hu Zi's mother go."
Zhao Yongli said with a dark face: "It's all your fault! Why did you stop me at that time! In this village, the work is not tiring and the money is good, why don't you do it! Only a fool would not do it!"
