The end of natural disasters: the daily life of child brides in ancient times

Widow Meng saw Lu Qingqing's surprise and said seriously:

"Daya, since you came to Baoshan Town, I have spent a lot of time with you in the village."

I know best what kind of person you are.

And if it weren’t for your help when I was buying food in the city, I might not have been able to get out of the door.

If that were the case, I don’t know how my little Sanbao would survive!

To be honest, as long as you ask, I will go even if you don’t pay me!”

Lu Qingqing looked at Widow Meng who had solemnly agreed, took her outstretched hand, and said with a smile:

"Sister Meng, thank you for helping me!

But by then, you and Xiao Sanbao will have to live in the county.

But don't worry, in addition to the basic wages, I will find a private school for Xiao Sanbao.

Let him learn some basic literacy first, and then when he's old enough to go to school, he can go to the Yining School that Dazhuang attended before."

Widow Meng didn't expect that Lu Qingqing would find a private school for Xiao Sanbao. She was stunned for a long time, and her eyes were a little red.

"Daya, I'm here to thank you.

Don't worry, I will use all my abilities to do my best to ensure a good job for you."

Widow Meng was very happy when she thought that her son would be able to go to school in the future.

She is a strong-willed person, and what she wants most in her life is for her son to be successful in the future.

When she saw Dazhuang going to school, she also had the idea of ​​sending her son to school there.

But she had to rely on weaving silk to support herself and her son, and raising silkworms in the village could save some money.

If she went to the county, not only would she have to spend money everywhere, but she would also not be familiar with the place.

But she was really worried about letting her son go to school alone.

There was no choice but to put the matter on hold for the time being.

Now that Daya was willing to help her son find a private school, she really had no reason to disagree.

The two sides hit it off and immediately decided to go to the county town the next day.

After Widow Meng sent Lu Qingqing away, the smile on her face never stopped.

While packing up his things, he hummed a little tune.

When Little Sanbao saw this, he also came up to his mother with a smile and asked in a baby voice:

"Mom, why are you so happy?"

Widow Meng squatted down, hugged Xiao Sanbao's chubby little face, kissed him, and then said gently:

"Xiao Sanbao, your Aunt Daya has found a school for you.

From now on, Xiao Sanbao can also go to school."

When Xiao Sanbao heard that he could go to school, he cheered.

"Great, I can go to school too!"

After the mother and daughter laughed and joked for a while, Widow Meng looked at the silkworms she was raising at home and decided to ask the villagers later.

See who is willing to raise more and give them away directly.

In addition, there are vegetables in the yard, and you can pick whatever you can and take away.

While Widow Meng was packing up, Lu Qingqing went to Wang Demou's place.

At this time, Wang Demou had already built several simple straw huts.

Under the straw hut, several women were busy, and the looms made a creaking sound.

Someone noticed Lu Qingqing coming over and hurried to call the clan leader.

Wang Demao was leading people to weave straw mats. When he heard Lu Qingqing coming, he quickly put down his work and stood up to greet her.

After the two sides greeted each other, Wang Demao led Lu Qingqing to the bottom of the straw hut.

At this moment, Zhenniang and others were busy.

Lu Qingqing walked over to the women, watched their skillful movements, and then looked at the material on the loom. She became more and more satisfied with their craftsmanship.

After watching for a while, Lu Qingqing and Wang Demao went to a quieter place nearby and explained their purpose.

Wang Demao didn't expect that Lu Qingqing actually planned to open a workshop specializing in weaving silk in the city.

You know, whether it is renting a storefront, renting equipment, or hiring a weaver, it is not a simple matter.

At this moment, Wang Demao was a little stunned when he heard that Lu Qingqing was planning to ask Zhenniang and others to teach the new weavers.

Because there are so many people here, the situation is relatively complicated.

After Lu Qingqing explained the treatment she planned to give, she said goodbye and left, leaving them room to discuss.

Before leaving, both parties agreed that after Wang Demou discussed with the people in the team, he would inform Lu Qingqing of the results before dark.

When Lu Qingqing returned home, her master's wife was helping her feed the silkworms. When she saw her come back, she hurried over to ask how things were going.

I was very happy when I learned that everything was almost ready.

The master and his wife have never had children, but they love them very much.

They had been to the Salesian Church before and had seen what life was like for the children there.

Therefore, Master's Wife fully agreed with Lu Qingqing's plan to create jobs for the poor girls in the Salesian Church.

Speaking of the fact that Master and his wife can't get pregnant, both of them have seen many doctors and there's no big problem, but they just can't get pregnant.

Previously, the reason could be attributed to the difficult journey of fleeing the famine and the exhaustion of the body.

But after things settled down, my master's wife took a lot of care about food.

During this period, Lu Qingqing also sent jars of space water to her master's wife.

Seeing that the master's wife's face was rosy and she was obviously in good health, he still couldn't get her.

Master Yan took his wife to see the patient several more times, and every time he took the patient's pulse, he said there was nothing wrong.

But after I came back, I still couldn't get it.

Lu Qingqing recalled some couples in her previous life who had no problems with each other but had not been able to have children for many years.

After the divorce, he remarried, but had children on both sides.

This situation seems to be called sperm-egg fusion disorder.

But for Master Yan and his wife, who were very loving, Lu Qingqing could only comfort his wife with a few words.

The two chatted for a while, and the sun slowly set.

At this time, Wang Demao brought Zhenniang and two other young women over.

The master's wife knew that they had something to talk about, so she tidied up the work in her hands and left.

After Lu Qingqing sent her master's wife away, she led Wang Demao and the other three into the main hall and sat them down.

Wang Demao stepped on the concrete floor for the second time. Although he was still a little nervous, it was better than the first time.

He pointed at Zhenniang and the other two women and said:

"Ms. Lu, regarding your suggestion of teaching new weavers, what do you think of Zhenniang and the other two?

You've paid us generously, and it's difficult for us to take advantage of you.

The craftsmanship of these three is slightly better than that of the other two. Do you think it's okay?"

Lu Qingqing looked at the three women and recognized that they were indeed the three with the best craftsmanship among them.

Seeing Lu Qingqing looking at them, Wang Demao explained:

"Of course, if you need more people, the remaining two people are willing to go.

But the wages you pay are too high, and we can't take advantage of you.

If you wish, you can let them become ordinary weavers, responsible for weaving silk."

What Wang Demao said was true. In fact, Lu Qingqing's original plan was to have about four or five female workers in the factory.

But there are five weavers in Wang Demao's team, and it is impossible for only one or two of them to be left.

In addition, no one can say how the factory will develop in the future.

Therefore, she thought of inviting a few people over first.

If it really doesn't work out, even if I go there and weave silk, I can still make up for the wages.

At this moment, seeing Wang Demu say this, he agreed.

Lu Qingqing also told Wang Demao and others about the treatment, accommodation, and rest time.

After everything was understood, both parties agreed that Lu Qingqing would pick them up early the next morning.
