"Zhi'er, this is it."

Cao Zhi stood beside his mother, his eyes revealing worry and uneasiness. Although he was still a minor, his concern for his mother did not diminish at all. He really couldn't let his mother come to this beauty salon to work alone, so he insisted on coming together to find out what was going on.

Widow Cao brought Cao Zhi to the door of the beauty salon, and she hesitated a little, as if she was a little afraid to enter this place. She looked at the ladies coming in and out, and her heart was filled with tension and anxiety.

"Mom, is this really the place?"

Cao Zhi looked at the scene in front of him, and he was full of doubts. He couldn't imagine how his mother could work here. He decided to go and ask for clarification in person.

Jinglan, who was in the store, noticed the mother and son standing outside the store, and she immediately recognized the woman. She remembered that the woman was a widow who had come to sign up for work at the soap workshop yesterday, and she paid special attention to her. As a woman, she knew that life was not easy, so she hoped to help them.

"Xiaomi, take care of the business in the store. I'll go out and take a look."

Jinglan has now become the manager of the store and has gradually become adept at the store's affairs. The employees will listen to her instructions and arrangements.

After saying that, Jinglan stood up and walked out the door, going straight to the mother and son who were standing at the door hesitantly.

"Aunt, are you having any problems? Tell me and I will do my best to help you solve it."

When Jinglan was talking, her eyes fell on Cao Zhi, and she secretly guessed that maybe Cao Zhi was dissatisfied with his mother's going out to work. After all, in this era, many men don't want to see their women show up outside.

Today, Cao Zhi was wearing a long gown that was washed white and looked very worn out, as if it had been worn out by the years. This kind of attire made it clear at a glance that he was a poor scholar. Men with this kind of image usually think highly of themselves and it is understandable that they do not want their mothers to work hard outside. Therefore, Jinglan naturally had some misunderstandings.

"Girl, it's not like that. It's just that my son doesn't quite believe that I can do such a good job, so I want to bring him here to see it so that he can feel more at ease."

Widow Cao hurriedly explained, fearing that Jinglan would misunderstand them and cause her to fail to get the job.

"So that's how it is." Jinglan nodded in sudden realization, expressing her understanding.

With this explanation, Jinglan could understand it. After all, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's beauty salon and soap workshop were recruiting workers, and the benefits were so good that if it were her, she would not have dared to believe that there was such a good job.

"Hello, sister, I am Cao Zhi." Cao Zhi politely bowed to Jinglan.

"How is it, you came to visit our beauty salon today, rest assured that your aunt is doing work here, right?"

"But sister, I see everyone here is so young and good-looking. My mother is so old, is it okay? Won't it have a bad impact?" Cao Zhi directly asked his doubts

"You're overthinking this. Our boss has given us instructions for recruiting workers this time. We have suitable positions for everyone, regardless of gender, age or status. You don't work as a clerk here. People like you go to work in another villa in the suburbs of Beijing. That's our soap workshop, and we need people like you."

Jinglan explained it carefully to Cao Zhi, and Cao Zhi believed it.

"If you have nothing to do, go back! Someone should come to your house tomorrow to inform your mother to go to work, don't worry." Jinglan saw that the problem was solved and prepared to go back to work.

"Wait a minute, sister," Cao Zhi called Jinglan

Jinglan turned around and wondered

"Anything else?"

Cao Zhi scratched his head embarrassedly and asked, "I heard from my mother that if we work here, our children can go to your school for free, right?" There was a hint of anticipation and nervousness in his voice.

Cao Zhi had never been to school since his father passed away. His mother was the only one at home and could not afford his tuition. He knew he had to help share the burden of the family, but his desire for knowledge never disappeared.

"Oh! You're asking about this! It's true. Why didn't you go to school?" Jinglan looked at Cao Zhi with some surprise. She originally thought that Cao Zhi was a scholar, but she didn't expect that he didn't go to school.

Cao Zhi lowered his head, a trace of shame appeared on his face, and he said with some difficulty: "I haven't been to school for two years..." His voice became lower and lower, as if he felt that this matter was not glorious. But he still couldn't help but want to ask, because it was related to his future.

"So that's it! As long as you complete the one-month probation period, you can apply to attend classes at the school run by your employer for free." Jinglan patted Cao Zhi's shoulder comfortingly.

Hearing this, Cao Zhi's eyes suddenly lit up, and he looked at his mother excitedly. Widow Cao was also so excited that tears welled up in her eyes, and she said quickly: "Zhi'er, listen, mother is right, mother will work hard. You can go to school again when the time comes."

Cao Zhi nodded vigorously, with a determined light in his eyes. He secretly vowed to study hard and live up to his mother's expectations.

"Thank you, sister!" Cao Zhi looked at Jinglan gratefully, "I will study hard and repay your kindness in the future."

Jinglan smiled and shook her head. "This is all the kindness of the boss. You can thank the boss if you want to. However, you must cherish this opportunity and study hard."

"Yes, I will!" Cao Zhi nodded solemnly.

Jinglan sighed as she looked at the backs of Cao Zhi and widow Cao.

“They are all miserable people!”

At the same time, I thought that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is such a good person. Now so many families in need have been helped, and so many children who cannot afford to pay can now go to school. It’s great.

Widow Cao thanked him again and again, and then took Cao Zhi home. Along the way, Cao Zhi was immersed in the joy of being able to study again.

The next day, someone came to inform Widow Cao to go to work in the soap workshop. Cao Zhi looked at his mother's back as she left, and his heart was filled with hope. He looked forward to learning more knowledge in the school and changing the fate of himself and his mother.
