Rich Peasant Girl: The General's Wife Has Space
Chapter 220 Explain the purpose of coming
How could Zhao Lizheng not be afraid? But a noble person was not someone that a peasant like them could meet whenever they wanted.
He had no choice but to comfort and instruct the villagers to go about their business as usual.
Looking at Xiao Wan greeting him with a smile, Zhao Lizheng couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
My eldest grandson, who is studying hard, must also be interested in Xiao Wan.
When Yao went to the Xiao family to propose marriage, he saw that his eldest grandson's eyes were shining.
Unfortunately, Yao didn't understand other people's expressions and offended them early on.
In addition to Yao Linlin's incident, the Yao family lost face in front of the Xiao family.
Not to mention the outstanding character Zhao Mingyuan.
This incident also made Cheng Ge'er realize the gap between himself and the Xiao family.
Perhaps due to the stimulation, Zhao Xuancheng now studies even harder, almost torturing himself.
Even Mrs. Yao was a little worried that her son would exhaust himself by working too hard, so she kept urging him to get more rest.
But Zhao Xuancheng agreed with a gentle expression to have a good rest, but after his mother left, he would continue to study as usual.
This made Zhao Lizheng's family very worried that their grandson might have gone astray.
Even the old lady of the Zhao family couldn't sit still, fearing that her eldest grandson had gone astray.
Mrs. Yao and Old Lady Zhao had more or less guessed what their children were thinking, and couldn't help but feel some resentment towards the Xiao family.
Although she became a county lady, her brother is also a good person. How can he not be worthy of Xiao Wan? It's just like finding a potato seed.
When their own children passed the imperial examination and became marquises and prime ministers, Xiao Wan, a county lady, would not even look at them.
But there is no other way at the moment, I can only advise my children to take care of their health and take it slow.
Zhao Lizheng regained his composure, stood up and nodded to Xiao Wan, who quickly persuaded him to sit down.
I am just a junior, there is no need for Zhao Lizheng to stand up and greet me personally.
After all, Xiao Wan still respected Zhao Lizheng very much. This old man had worked hard for most of his life for the village and had no selfish motives. He deserved respect.
Seeing that Xiao Wan still treated him with respect and courtesy, Zhao Lizheng smiled even happier, and at the same time, he felt more and more sad that his grandson and Xiao Wan were not destined to be together.
In addition, the incident with his eldest daughter-in-law's younger sister made Zhao Lizheng even more embarrassed.
However, for the sake of his eldest daughter-in-law and sister-in-law's status as well as his eldest grandson's academic achievements, Zhao Lizheng couldn't get too angry with the Yao family.
But I always feel guilty about the Xiao family workshop.
But today he came to the Xiao family with a mission, not for himself, but for the villagers. He had to force himself to explain his purpose first.
Since the New Year, people from the village have been coming to his house one after another, just so that Zhao Lizheng can speak in front of the Xiao family. It seems that the workshop still needs to recruit people, so that they can go to work and supplement the family income.
After all, the treatment in the workshop is obvious to all. During the Chinese New Year, the smell of meat comes from the homes of all the female workers in the workshop, making other villagers envious.
The villagers were not having a good time, and he was very anxious. He came to the Xiao family before the New Year was over.
After Zhao Lizheng explained his purpose, he felt a little nervous. After all, the Xiao family was not an ordinary villager.
Strictly speaking, all the people living in Kaoshan Village are from Xiao Wan's fiefdom.
But Zhao Lizheng always felt that he had not misjudged the person. The Xiao family was not the kind of family that would ignore people after becoming rich.
After hearing this, Old Man Xiao was very moved. The villagers were having a hard time, and he himself felt unhappy too.
After all, there are many guys in the village who grew up with him. Their families are having a hard time, and he feels sorry for them.
But my business is not big, so I can’t use too many people for now. It depends on what my daughter plans to do.
Old Man Xiao looked a little worried and looked at his daughter out of habit.
Xiao Wan looked at her father's embarrassed expression with amusement, and without delaying any longer, she quickly told Zhao Lizheng and her father about her thoughts.
I was thinking of enclosing the land next to the potato workshop and buying it to build a workshop.
There are basically no people living in the area around the workshop, so it should be no problem to buy it.
The current workshop plus the area Xiao Wan wants to enclose covers an area of about five acres.
The original workshop was expanded on the existing basis to accommodate more people to work, and this place will be a special place for female workers in the future.
The other piece of land was used to build a new workshop of the same type, which only recruited male workers. Although the current atmosphere was open, it was still a feudal society after all, and Xiao Wan still did not want to challenge the bottom line of feudal society.
Xiao Wan also wanted to imitate the factories in modern society and separate an office, a conference room and a reception room in the workshop so that there would be a place to receive foreign merchants in the future.
