Rich Peasant Girl: The General's Wife Has Space

The newly recruited female workers were also screened by Aunt Xiao San. After all, she had been in the village for many years and was more familiar with the character of the villagers.

Aunt Xiao was very upset about the matter of the two female workers, and thought that it was because she had not kept a good eye on the matter that these gossips were brought in.

Xiao Wan said to her Third Aunt, feeling both amused and helpless: "Third Aunt, we don't have eyes installed in other people's homes. How can we know what their true nature is? It's okay if they behave similarly on a daily basis. Don't take it to heart."

Aunt Xiao's sister Xue Yujuan also came this time. She has always been curious and admired her sister's niece.

It's not like I haven't seen her before, but Xiao Wan was a silent nobody back then. She was nowhere near as beautiful and cheerful as she is now, and she couldn't even open a workshop and lead the villagers to make money.

Xiao Wan also greeted her warmly, which made Xue Yujuan very excited. She stammered and was unable to speak, staring at Xiao Wan with starry eyes.

Xiao Wan felt a little uncomfortable. What's wrong with this girl?

Aunt Xiao nodded to her younger sister with a smile, "This girl has always admired you. She must be very excited to finally meet you this time."

Xiao Wan rubbed her forehead. She actually had a fangirl? Xiao Wan smiled and nodded, encouraging her to do a good job. Xue Yujuan nodded excitedly.

Xiao Wan then began to check the processing situation in the workshop. The production method was relatively simple and crude, and there were no major business secrets.

Xiao Wan just wanted to make some money first, so she put up a brand name, and then added the potatoes watered with spiritual spring water, which was her trump card.

After someone was actually fired, the female workers became even more diligent. Apart from chatting and laughing about family matters, no one dared to gossip anymore.

It is too low for you to work for your boss and still talk about other people's gossip. After all, many people are jealous of this job. If you don't do it, others will rush to do it.

The Xiao family was indeed very kind. I heard that they had hired servants and were going to expand their new house, and that they would recruit people from the village. This made many older and more sensible people very happy, and they warned their children and grandchildren to be content and cherish what they had, and just follow the Xiao family.

Those who are more sensible will naturally agree with the old man's words, while those who are not sensible are still jealous and do not know how to work hard to make money. Instead, they just want to make trouble for others.

Xiao Wan naturally didn't care. There were many people who wanted to do work for her family, but she really didn't care!

After finishing her work, Xiao Wan returned home to check the drying progress of the dried meat. The pickled dried meat had been hung out to dry in the yard by Aunt Zhang according to Xiao Wan's request. There were two large winnowing baskets full of it, which looked very pleasing to the eye.

Xiao Wan nodded in satisfaction and let the meat slices hang out in the corridor to dry naturally until tomorrow. She could grill them when she returned from town tomorrow.

She also discussed with Aunt Zhang whether they could make some delicious and long-lasting pickled vegetables. She planned to prepare a few small jars for Zhao Mingyuan. If they had no place to eat while on the road, it would be nice to have a pancake with pickled vegetables and dried meat.

Now that the weather is getting hotter, other things cannot be kept. Xiao Wan can only think of pickled vegetables and dried meat, which contain both meat and vegetables. Among the pickled vegetables, Xiao Wan only knows how to pickle cucumbers.

The cucumbers in the space have matured, and Xiao Wan couldn't help but feel a little worried. She has to make them for her family during this period of time. She should grow crops in the future and vegetables in autumn and winter, otherwise she really won't be able to eat them all.

In order to avoid suspicion of the vegetables appearing out of nowhere, Xiao Wan asked Bai Tuantuan and moved all the vegetable racks to the field in her backyard at night.

Xiao Wan was afraid that the Zhang and Tian families would be frightened by Bai Tuan Tuan, so she hadn't dared to let it out yet. It must be suffocating. She would just let it out tomorrow. It could also guard the house. It would be pitiful for a divine beast like her to be alone in the space.

Aunt Zhang smiled and said, "You've finally asked the right person, young lady. My family is from the south, and every household makes pickles. Vegetables are ripe right now, so there's a lot of stuff that can be pickled."

Because Xiao Wan did not allow them to call themselves slaves, they all called themselves "I".

Xiao Wan was even more surprised. What a treasure assistant!

In her previous life, she would also buy many bottled pickles in the supermarket, some of which tasted really good. Some of her classmates from the south who came to study in the north would also bring some pickles from home, which were especially delicious.

The two of them discussed and started to busy themselves in the kitchen. Tian Shuang looked at her daughter and sighed. Her daughter loved the kitchen too much.

Xiao Wan first pickled the simplest cucumbers, washed them, cut them into strips, removed the cucumber core, sprinkled a little salt on them and marinated them for fifteen minutes, then poured out the water, cut the ginger into thin strips, cut the garlic into slices, and cut the small chili peppers into sections.

Fortunately, although Tian Shuang is young, she is good at knife skills and can be of great help. Xiao Wan now likes this diligent and lovely little girl very much.

Xiao Wan took a large bowl, mixed vinegar, soy sauce and sugar evenly and set aside. In another pan, heat oil, stir-fry ginger, garlic, chili, peppercorns and star anise over low heat, pour in the seasoning sauce, turn off the heat and let cool, then pour into a small ceramic jar, mix in the cucumber strips and marinate overnight.

Stir it a few times in the middle to allow the cucumber to fully absorb the flavor. Seal it and place it in a cool place before going to bed at night.
