Evil Sister in Charge: As long as you are thick-skinned, you can eat meat every meal

Chapter 86: Rather than having people gossip about you behind your back, it’s better to blow yoursel

When Zhou Sisi drove back to Qingshan Village, she had already thought of a plan on the way. If she brought the person back, the villagers would definitely make all kinds of speculations.

After all, he had only told others that he had spent two hundred taels of money from selling ginseng, and now he had used it to build a house, buy land, and buy furniture for the wedding banquet, so most of it had been spent.

Since it was bound to be discussed, why not expose it yourself? This way, the good side of public opinion could be suppressed on your side, so as soon as Zhou Sisi got home, she went to Mrs. Wu's house.

Mrs. Wu's eldest daughter-in-law is called Ma Xiu Lian. She is a cheerful person, efficient at work, lively and talkative. She is very popular in the village. Most importantly, she is a member of the Laohuaishu Intelligence Station in Qingshan Village, and a capable one at that.

So Zhou Sisi found her. She thought that she would have to give Ma Xiu Lian some benefits before she would help. But as soon as she said that, Ma Xiu Lian immediately patted her chest and assured her not to worry, saying that she would handle the matter very smoothly.

Zhou Sisi had given her family a lot of good things before, including mutton and wild boar meat. She was not a conscienceless person. After eating so many good things from others, she had to help with this little thing.

So, at the intelligence station under the big locust tree in the village, a dozen aunts and ladies began to exchange intelligence information with each other.

"Oh my god! Did you know? The Zhou family actually bought a servant!"

"They bought three at once. The Zhou family is really rich!"

"Yes! I saw them when I came back. There were two women and one man. When did the Zhou family become so rich?"

Several aunts started chatting with each other.

When Zhou Sisi entered the village, she did not hide the matter from the villagers at all, because she felt that she could not hide it even if she wanted to.

"What do you know? I'm telling you, I have inside information. Everyone in Songhe Restaurant in this town knows about it, right? The latest braised pork recipe that's so delicious that you can swallow your tongue off was developed by Sisi."

"Guess how much silver this braised pork recipe sold for?"

Ma Xiu Lian started her performance with an expression that said "come and ask me" and a very proud expression on her face.

"Xiu Lian, your mother-in-law and Mrs. Zhou have a good relationship, you must know the inside story, why don't you tell us?"

"Yes, yes! Tell us now, don't keep us in suspense! Hurry up!"

Anyone would feel uncomfortable after hearing half of these words, and these gossiping old ladies were no exception. They all stretched their necks and waited to hear what Ma Xiu Lian had to say next.

"Come closer, I'm telling you, don't say I said it!" Ma Xiu Lian waved at the aunts and ladies, signaling them to come closer if they wanted to listen.

"Don't worry, we promise not to tell!" Everyone gathered around immediately.

Ma Xiu Lian rolled her eyes silently in her heart. The more she forbade them to speak, the more they would talk.

She knows it all too well. Why? Because she is such a person.

"Miss Sisi's braised pork recipe sold for three hundred taels of silver. Isn't that amazing? I heard her say it with my own ears."

"So isn't it normal for her to hire people to do the work and buy some servants? There's no need to make a fuss."

The aunts and wives were all shocked. Oh my god! Three hundred taels of silver! How great it would be if it was theirs!

"Aunts and ladies, listen to me. This Sisi girl is a promising child. There will only be benefits and no harm in making friends with her in the future. Anyway, I'm telling you this. If you don't believe me, you can do whatever you want."

After completing her mission, Ma Xiu Lian found a reason to withdraw.

In less than the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, almost every household in Daqingshan knew that Zhou Sisi had sold a recipe to Songhe Restaurant and made three hundred taels of silver.

Zhou Sisi was gnawing on chicken feet. Han Yueniang was a great cook. She braised a rooster for lunch, which was a gift from Tian Meijiang yesterday.

I also stewed the dried mushrooms and rooster sent by the Xu family father and son, fried an egg, and made scallion pancakes.

"Xiao Han, you have great cooking skills, and the cake is so delicious!" Mrs. Zhou ate with relish and kept praising Han Yue Niang.

"Thank you for the compliment, old lady. I'm glad you like it." Han Yueniang smiled gently and lowered her head to eat the rice in her bowl in small bites.

The Wang brother and sister also enjoyed the meal very much. It had been a long time since they had eaten such delicious food. After taking the first bite, tears welled up in their eyes unconsciously, but they forced themselves to hold back the tears.

At first they were reluctant to sit at the table to eat, but later Zhou Sisi said that this was their first time entering the house, and they must have their first meal together, and they could do whatever they wanted in the future. Only then did the three of them sit down.

Zhou Sisi knew that they were embarrassed to take the dishes or bread, so she simply divided the food among them and started eating.

After dinner, Zhou Sisi began to assign tasks to the three people.

Han Yue Niang was responsible for cooking and all the chores in the kitchen for the Zhou family. Wang Chunsheng was responsible for washing clothes, cleaning the yard and other chores for the Zhou family. Wang Qiu Sheng was responsible for picking up and dropping off the boys in the Zhou family from school and feeding the donkey.

Zhou Sisi arranged for Wang Qiu Sheng to live in the old house with Xu Younian, while Han Yue Niang and Wang Chun Sheng lived in an empty room in the new house. The furniture and bedding had been prepared in advance.

Then Zhou Sisi let them have free time this afternoon so that they could get familiar with Qingshan Village so that they wouldn't have to lose their way back later. There was nothing to do in the afternoon anyway.

She found an excuse to take a nap and went into her room to tinker with the space.

Mrs. Zhou took the things and went to Mr. Zhou's house.

"Grandma, why are you here?" It was Zhou Pandi who came to open the door. He was surprised to see it was Mrs. Zhou.

Because she didn't know that Zhou Zhaodi asked Zhou Pozi to take over the embroidery.

"Where is your elder sister?" Mrs. Zhou walked into the yard and looked at the messy arrangement of firewood and the fallen leaves and chicken droppings on the ground. She was so disgusted that she didn't know where to put her feet.

I don't know how Liu Cuilan manages the household. The hygiene is so poor. She doesn't even know how to clean up. It's so dirty!

"Grandma, you're here!" Zhou Zhaodi walked out of the house when she heard the voice.

"I've got the job for you. The labor fee for one piece is fifteen cents. You must embroider it carefully and don't make it dirty. If it's not up to standard, the deposit I gave you will be wasted!"

Mrs. Zhou handed the bag to her and repeated the requirements of Zhiyun Pavilion to Zhou Zhaodi. The deposit was real and Mrs. Zhou did not lie to her.

After all, we are all strangers. Who can give things like embroidered handkerchiefs to outsiders for no reason? What if you don't embroider them and they run away with the things?

So every time she brought back embroidery work, she had to pay a deposit, unless it was a long-term relationship, an old acquaintance who knew the person well, then no deposit would be asked. So Grandma Zhou paid half a penny of silver as a deposit to the shopkeeper.

"Grandma, thank you. I will embroider it well!" Zhou Zhaodi took the bundle and nodded vigorously.

"Okay! Okay! I'm leaving!"

Mrs. Zhou didn't want to stay here for even a minute. It was so dirty. She felt more comfortable looking at her own clean yard.

On the way back, Mrs. Zhou always felt that someone was buzzing at her from behind, but when she turned around, there was no one there, so she didn't think much about it and just quickened her pace to go home.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I entered my yard, someone knocked on the door of my house.

It was Wang Chunsheng who opened the door. He saw two smiling aunts standing at the door and was a little confused for a moment.

"Big Wang, who is that?"

Mrs. Zhou thought the names of the Wang siblings were too long and difficult to pronounce, so she simply changed them to Big Wang and Little Wang.
