Rich Peasant Girl: The General's Wife Has Space

Chapter 238 The whole family changes

"Maybe I can even buy some good wine for Dad and a silver hairpin for Mom."

"Mom, you always envy Aunt Wang next door for her copper hairpin. When the potatoes are sold, I will buy you a silver hairpin and you can wear it outside to show off."

"Make two more sets of nice clothes so that my parents can look respectable when they go out."

Lanxiang spoke earnestly, with a hint of temptation in her words.

There was no other way. She knew what her parents wanted most, so she used these things, which were still vague for the time being, to tempt her parents.

"You're just thinking about Tiedan getting married when he grows up and continuing to serve you, but your family has no money, even food is a problem, how can we get a bride?"

"You could get some betrothal gifts by marrying me off, but our family has such a bad reputation, who would be willing to marry me?"

"What kind of good family can marry me? What kind of valuable betrothal gift can they offer? I don't even have any dowry!"

As the words came down one after another, which were sharp and realistic, Wang Ergou and Qi's faces were a little shaken. They had never heard their daughter say such words.

My daughter doesn't say these things on weekdays. She has been used to working hard and silently serving the family since she was a child.

When these words were said suddenly, as parents, I felt a little uncomfortable when I heard my daughter "lecturing" me with these words.

But there seems to be some truth to this, mainly because they also want to eat meat and drink wine.

Meat. Qi thought of the aroma of meat coming from the workshop and wished she could eat it.

There were also silver hairpins. Qi was jealous thinking about the big-mouthed woman next door, Wang, who wore the pair of copper hairpins that came with her dowry like treasures.

He said he was disdainful, but he was extremely jealous in his heart.

Wang Ergou couldn't help but be fascinated by the aroma of wine.

If he could drink and eat meat, and have a little money to coax Widow Wu, his life would be so comfortable.

The couple thought about it and felt a little shaken.

Lanxiang gave him a final shot of adrenaline.

"Mom and Dad, the village head told me that the county lady said I could work in her workshop. This is an opportunity that no one else can even ask for."

"What! Letting you into the workshop, you silly girl, is this true?" Wang Ergou and Qi were also shocked, and hurriedly pulled Lanxiang's arm and asked anxiously.

It’s no wonder they were shocked, because the opportunity to work in the Xiao family workshop was so rare.

They have also heard how difficult it is to get in.

Now I heard that my eldest daughter can also work in the workshop. Does this mean that I can also eat meat and get wages?

The most important thing is that you can gain face in the village.

The daughter I raised actually worked in a workshop. It would be an honor to tell others about it.

After all, the Xiao family workshop only recruits hardworking and virtuous female workers.

Wang Ergou and Qi were very happy, their eldest daughter really made herself proud.

"I go to work and get paid, and during the busy farming season I can go to the fields with my family. My parents stay at home and plant potatoes, and we earn two shares of the money."

"Father and mother can drink wine, eat meat and buy hairpins soon, right?"

"Tiedan will be able to marry a wife by then, and our family will live a good life. Others will envy us to death, and Aunt Wang won't be able to show off to us anymore. Don't you agree, mother?"

"Yes, that's right. I get annoyed by that big-mouthed woman next door. She always brags about how much land and wealth her family has and how good their life is. When my daughter gets a job in the workshop, I'll make her die of envy!"

Qi also kept agreeing with her daughter.

In fact, the couple was more worried that their eldest daughter would quit, leaving them and their youngest son without a backbone to rely on.

Over the years, they have become accustomed to the eldest daughter arranging everything at home and outside.

Lanxiang felt a little amused. Although they lived their own lives, some of them, the ordinary people, felt proud of their lives by comparing themselves with others.

It's better than living like a puddle of mud.

In short, after Lanxiang's threats and empty promises, Wang Ergou, Qi and Tiedan also went to the fields.

It did shock the villagers.

It was really strange that this lazy man and his family followed their eldest daughter to the fields. Everyone laughed and said nothing more.

After all, no one likes to have lazy people in the village. If they change, the atmosphere of the whole village will be better.

Here, Xiao Wan listened to Zhao Laoer reporting on the progress of the workshop expansion. Now Zhao Laoer has gathered villagers to build the workshop.

When the villagers learned that the workshop was going to be expanded and that they would continue to recruit male and female workers, they were very excited.

After Zhao Lizheng announced the benefits of building a workshop, everyone became even more excited.

It is not the time for spring sowing yet. After the Chinese New Year, the house is almost empty.
