The fragrance of medicine is alluring, the farm elder sister is cool and cool

"You're blaming me now? Didn't you agree at the time? I did it for Hu Zi! His mother has gone to work, so who's going to cook for him?"

Hu Zi, who was reviewing his homework in the room, heard them quarreling over him. He rushed out crying and shouted, "What does it have to do with me? Who asked you to control me? Don't use me as an excuse. It's not my fault that our family is poor!"

Old Lady Zhao was frightened by her grandson. She calmed down and slapped him twice in anger, "It's all for you. Your mother has gone to work, who cares about you!"

"I don't need you to care about me. I'm redundant. Then I'm going to die." Hu Zi's stubborn temper came up and he started to make a fuss.

Zhao Yongli was already upset, and he was making trouble. He slammed the table in anger, "What are you crying for, you little bastard! If you make trouble again, I'll break your legs!"

Li Hongxiu quickly hugged Hu Zi, covered his ears with her hands, and patted him gently to comfort him. "That's enough, why are you angry with the child?"

The next day, Wen Qingcheng and Wen Zhuo went to the county town to get the plaque. In the pharmacy, the two sisters-in-law of the Ruan family had already started to get busy. Each of them scraped a donkey skin and the progress was very fast.

Li Hongxiu stood outside the east gate of the pharmacy, wandering around, looking at the two sisters-in-law of the Ruan family who were talking and laughing and working hard inside, feeling indescribable envy in her heart.

It was Mrs. Ruan who first spotted Li Hongxiu wandering outside the door and greeted her enthusiastically, "Hey? Hongxiu. Come in quickly."

The two sisters-in-law of the Ruan family and Li Hongxiu had helped together when Wen Qingcheng held the Wenju Banquet, so they were very familiar with each other. When they saw Li Hongxiu coming, they hurriedly invited her in. Naturally, they also wanted Li Hongxiu to do it, and they worked in harmony.

Li Hongxiu was surprised to see them. She smiled awkwardly, walked in, and glanced around: "Hey? Qingcheng isn't here?"

"Qingcheng and Brother Zhuo went to the county town to get the plaque, and also to buy some things for the opening tomorrow." said Mrs. Ruan.

Li Hongxiu felt a little disappointed when she heard that Wen Qingcheng was not at home. She saw the two sisters-in-law shaving the donkey skin on a large bluestone table. Thinking of waiting for Wen Qingcheng here, she stood aside and chatted with them. "This job is not easy. You have to shave it off bit by bit."

Mrs. Ruan smiled and said, "That's nothing. In fact, we can work very quickly together. We can shave one in a day. We can blanch it again the next day, and the roots of the small hairs can be removed."

Mrs. Ruan said, "Hey, Hongxiu, Wen Ji hasn't officially opened yet, but we have received a lot of orders. I heard from Qingcheng that we will have to expand and add another production line in the future. When the time comes, you can come and ask us, and we can do it together."

Li Hongxiu's expression darkened: "In fact, Qingcheng came to me a long time ago and wanted to give me one tael of silver a month to let me do the work of slicing and drying."

The two sisters-in-law of the Ruan family looked at each other and asked in surprise: "Ah? Then why didn't you agree? This job is so good. Although it doesn't make as much money as our job, it's easy and clean."

"Oh, don't you know my mother-in-law? Qingcheng came to me in person, but she refused. My wife always listens to her mother."

Mrs. Ruan didn't understand at all. When Qingcheng went to find the two sisters-in-law to work, her mother-in-law was so happy. Mrs. Zhao must be getting old and confused.

"It's a good thing to make money. Why doesn't your mother-in-law let you do it? You can stay in this village. It's not like you're going out to do some shameful work."

Li Hongxiu looked distressed: "Who said it wasn't true? She said she was afraid of delaying taking care of the child. They are both at home, and they don't worry about the family affairs at all. Zhao Yongli is the same, so he is heartless."

Mrs. Ruan was very angry when she heard this. "The child is not yours alone. You should have insisted on coming to work. I don't believe that if you don't cook, the two of them will starve to death. They will not care about Huzi."

Li Hongxiu now regretted not insisting at that time. "Actually, my mother-in-law saw how well you treated me yesterday and agreed to let me come again. She even came to see Qingcheng, but Qingcheng told her to go back and wait for news."

Mrs. Ruan sighed, "There are many people who want to work at Wen Ji now. Xiao Liu and her gang in the village have been asking about it. We are closer to Qingcheng, so we are given priority. Your mother-in-law is really bad."

"My mother-in-law has some different ideas from others. She said that it's not okay for a woman to go out to work. Wouldn't that make her husband look incompetent?"

When Mrs. Ruan Er heard this, she immediately retorted, "What is she talking about? Can Zhao Yongli stand up on his own? Does he still need his wife to be a foil? Everyone wants their wife to be as capable as possible. My Erlang knows that I'm working, and he has been more considerate to me these days."

Mrs. Ruan was very happy, but she remembered that Hongxiu didn't have a job yet, so she changed the subject: "Anyway, you should have your own attitude in the future, and don't listen to them on everything."

Li Hongxiu nodded. It was almost noon when Wen Qingcheng and Wen Zhuo came back with a cart of supplies.

The carriage drove directly to the backyard and entered from the east gate. Li Hongxiu saw that it was noon and was about to go home to cook when she ran into Wen Qingcheng and Wen Zhuo driving the horses back.

"Hey? Sister Hongxiu." Wen Qingcheng was very surprised to see Li Hongxiu here.

Wen Zhuo jumped off the carriage and pulled it to the yard of the pharmacy: "Come and help."

Li Hongxiu didn't bother to chat with Wen Qingcheng, and followed the two sisters-in-law of the Ruan family to unload the car. Wen Zhuo took the big lead and pulled out the plaque. There were several bags of big red bundles inside, all of which were fruits, cakes, firecrackers, and big red silk flowers prepared for the opening tomorrow.

After unloading the carriage, Wen Zhuo went to lead the horses to the stable. Li Hongxiu saw that Wen Qingcheng was free at this moment, so she walked forward. Just as she was about to speak, Wen Qingcheng held her hand affectionately; "Sister Hongxiu, I'm so happy that you can come."

Li Hongxiu was stunned, not understanding what Wen Qingcheng meant. Wen Qingcheng blinked mischievously, "Your mother-in-law came to see me yesterday."

Hong Xiu nodded, "I know that. She said that many people want to do this now. Good opportunities won't always wait for me. It's also my fault that I didn't have my own ideas at the time and was too obedient."

"Sister Hongxiu, don't worry. I have kept this position for you. Some people have asked about it, but I told everyone that it was full. I said that to your mother-in-law on purpose. Actually, if you didn't come to see me today, I would have thought of coming to see you when I had some free time today."

Li Hongxiu was even more confused. "Did you deliberately say that to your mother-in-law?"

"Yes, I just want to let your mother-in-law know that this opportunity is hard-won. I'm afraid she will cause trouble later. This way, the whole family depends on you to make money, and they will treat you better."

Li Hongxiu excitedly held Wen Qingcheng's hand, her eyes reddened, "Qingcheng, I really don't know how to thank you. You have considered everything for me, saved my Huzi, cured my uncle, and now you are so good to me. You are really my lucky star."
