Rich Peasant Girl: The General's Wife Has Space

The dismissed female workers were also very sad. A woman who was dismissed for being lazy could not hold her head up in the village.

It may even affect your children's marriage in the future. If the mother is a lazy woman, how can the children be good children? Especially for girls, the most important thing for the in-laws is diligence and virtue.

Unfortunately, there was no chance to do it again, and it was too late to regret. Even if they were asked to go to the Xiao family to make trouble, they would not dare to do so. After all, the Xiao family was not an ordinary family now. Just because of this potato workshop, they became village elders, a title bestowed by the emperor himself.

Ordinary people would think it was a big deal when they heard about the position of county magistrate, not to mention that there was a village elder and a county lady appointed by the emperor in their village.

How dare they make trouble again?

When the workshop was first built, there were indeed many people who had ulterior motives, thinking of working in the workshop to steal the recipe, or bribing the female workers in the workshop to secretly write down the method of making vermicelli.

But ever since the incident of Yao Linlin and Zhao Cuihua colluding to steal the recipe was exposed, Xiao Wan and Aunt Xiao San had called all the female workers and the head of the village together and held a serious meeting.

Xiao Wan also explained the pros and cons of the matter to the female workers. This matter was not about the interests of the Xiao family in the workshop, but was related to the livelihood of the entire village and should not be underestimated.

Yes, Xiao Wan also plans to expand the scale of the workshop, at least to take care of the livelihood of the villagers. There are still many poor people in the mountain village, and the Xiao family hopes to take care of all the villagers when they can.

Now that the operation of the workshop has stabilized, it is time to explore the outside market. We cannot stagnate at the present moment. Our own workshop must make more money before the potato spreads.

During the meeting, Zhao Lizheng was very serious throughout. He already understood what Xiao Wan meant by meeting and started to get used to using this word.

After Xiao Wan, Zhao Lizheng also gave the female workers a serious lecture, urging them to cherish the hard-earned working opportunities.

For a while, the atmosphere in the workshop improved a bit.

Xiao Wan knew more or less about the things happening in the village. It was not that she had not thought about expanding the workshop, and it was indeed time to put the workshop matter on the agenda.

It is indeed somewhat limited for a workshop to only employ female workers. If we want to help the villagers and even people in other villages get rich together, both male and female workers should be employed.

It is time to select some male workers in the village who have good character and are willing to work hard. In this way, when expanding the business, it will be safer to have men walking around outside.

Thinking of this, Xiao Wan arrived home unknowingly.

Li Zheng Zhao was already sitting in the main room talking to Old Man Xiao.

Although the Xiao family has crossed the social ladder, they still treat the villagers as usual. They do not become arrogant or look down on the villagers just because they have become an official family.

Therefore, Zhao Lizheng also often visited the Xiao family as before.

But looking at the generous and steady Xiao Wan, Zhao Lizheng smiled on the surface, but felt regretful in his heart. He should have proposed a marriage for his grandson earlier.

Although his grandson is now a scholar, it is a rare sight in the villages within a radius of dozens of miles.

But she was still far inferior to the county princess bestowed by the emperor. She was also a sensible person, so she gave up the idea of ​​marriage. She would feel resentful if the marriage failed.

As for the fact that Yao came to visit, Zhao Lizheng was unaware of it before. His wife was happy to see it happen, but unfortunately they were too short-sighted before, always thinking that Xiao Wan was a peasant girl and not worthy of their son who was already a scholar. Now they regret it.

Besides, Xiao Laoer and Liu had previously revealed, intentionally or unintentionally, that their daughter already had a boyfriend, and Zhao Lizheng had vaguely guessed which family it was.

They are nothing more than the Zhao family, an outsider.

When the Zhao family first settled in Kaoshan Village, he had a feeling they were something special. Just looking at the aura of Zhao Wu and Zhao Mingyuan, they weren't like ordinary farmers. They were even more imposing than the county magistrate he had seen from afar in the city.

Let’s not talk about Fu. She looks like a lady from a wealthy family and is not comparable to ordinary people.

Although I don't often walk around the village, a person's demeanor and demeanor cannot be cultivated overnight.

The boy from the Zhao family is a good match for the girl from the Xiao family.

I just heard that the family went on a long trip and I don’t know if they will come back.

In addition, some time ago, it seemed that a noble person moved into the Xiao family. During that period, there were many unfamiliar faces in the village holding swords. They all had cold and serious expressions and were patrolling around the village.

At first, Zhao Lizheng was very scared, but then Xiao Wan told him that a noble person had moved into the village and told everyone not to be afraid and just do what they had to do.
