Chapter 182: Excellent Riding Skills

The main reason was that Shen Yueyao had expanded her house and built a workshop, and needed people to help with the work, so most of the labor force in the village came to work.

We can get twenty cents a day as wages. We are still building the workshop and it has been almost two months. All in all, everyone has about one or two taels of silver in hand.

In the past, many families planted crops for a year, and even when the harvest was good, they might not be able to earn a tael of silver by selling some of the crops.

Everyone was happy looking at the copper coins.

Besides, most of the women in the village work in workshops. It will be a month soon, and they can earn a lot of wages.

Now Liuhe Village has surpassed Beimai Village in one fell swoop.

In the past, some distant villages didn’t even know where Liuhe Village was.

In the past, most people thought it was a remote village, but now many people want to move to Liuhe Village.

Everyone knows that Shen Yueyao’s second workshop will be completed soon, and the second workshop will be bigger than the first one.

I don’t know what Shen Yueyao is going to do with the second workshop.

Knowing that the second workshop was about to be completed, many people came to Liuhe Village from time to time just to find out the news.

When Shen Yueyao entered the workshop, she saw that everyone was working in an orderly manner, and each of them worked neatly and efficiently.

Shen Yueyao nodded in her heart.

I told Madam Meng that I was going out and gave her a brief explanation.

Madam Meng wiped her hands and said, "Yao Niang, you can just go and do your work. Leave the housework to me. I'll take care of Dabao and Erbao. They'll be fine."

"If Xueyi were at home, he would probably miss you. The last time you went to your mother's house, he didn't eat much that night. Now that you're back, I can feel that his mood has improved."

When Shen Yueyao and her fourth brother went back to her parents' home, she told Old Madam Meng about it, so Old Madam Meng knew about it.

At that time, Su Xueyi was in the academy, so Shen Yueyao couldn't tell Su Xueyi in time.

When Shen Yueyao heard Xue Yi's name, her expression changed.

I'm passing by the provincial capital, which is close to the Imperial Examination Hall, but I don't know if I can go see him.

But the exam should have started by now, so even if I went, he would be in the exam room.

But if I can arrive at the right time, I can come back with Su Xueyi.

Thinking of Su Xueyi, Shen Yueyao's lips curled up into a smile, and her brows softened.

Seeing that her son and daughter-in-law had a good relationship, Mrs. Meng was also happy.

She now sees hope for their Su family. She feels that Yao Niang is truly a blessing for the family and for their Su family.

Because of Yao Niang, the family's life became better. Her eyesight improved, and Xue Yi's legs also healed.

Erya is now confident and cheerful, and has learned a lot.

Now Erya is in charge of and organizing the workshop's accounts, inventory receipts and other matters related to accounting and data.

Ever since Erya learned Arabic numerals and new accounting methods from Yao Niang, she has become very fast at calculating.

She remembered the accounts clearly, so clearly that they were clear to her just by looking at them.

Mrs. Meng had learned housekeeping and accounting since she was a child, so she could naturally see how useful this new accounting method was.

So Mrs. Meng also followed suit and learned, memorized Arabic numerals, and studied while managing the workshop.

Yao Niang said that learning never ends.

Yao Niang also said that they would definitely be able to return to the capital.

So the more skills you learn, the better.

Moreover, Mrs. Meng feels at ease as she studies and does meaningful things every day.

And seeing my grandsons Dabao and Erbao every day makes me feel good.

Mrs. Meng smiled more often.

I just think of Daya occasionally, and I don’t know how she is doing.

Su Xiuye ​​had visited it before, and after finding no problems, he came back. He usually helped with the work in the fields or helped build the workshop. He was very busy every day.

Daya didn't send anyone back with a message, nor did she say she would come back to take a look.

When Mrs. Meng thought of Daya, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

She didn't mention Daya again, for fear of affecting everyone's mood.

Shen Yueyao felt relieved to leave Dabao and Erbao in the care of their mother.

Then, Shen Yueyao took her spare medicine box and got on the carriage with Yang Yanran and went directly to the Wen family.

It was now mid-morning, and if the carriage went quickly, it would reach the Wen family in the evening.

Yang Yanran is skilled in martial arts and is not afraid of the bumpy ride of the carriage.

But she has to take care of Shen Yueyao, and it will be very uncomfortable to ride in the carriage with Sister Shen bumping around.

Shen Yueyao looked at the expression on Yang Yanran's face and seemed to understand what she was thinking. She said directly, "Sister Yang, please make the carriage go faster and hurry up. This way, we can get to your house earlier."

"But you won't be comfortable sitting like that."

Shen Yueyao smiled and said, “It’s okay, don’t worry.”

"If possible, we can go there earlier on horseback."

"Besides, the weather is not cold now, so there is no need to take a carriage."

In this case, Yang Yanran and Shen Yueyao each rode a horse and headed towards the Wen family at a very fast speed.

Shen Yueyao placed the medicine box behind the horse and let the horse carry it.

In fact, the medicine box is for others to see. Some medicinal materials and the medicines she prepared are placed in the space so that they are not afraid of bumps.

That's how they arrived at the Wen family in the city in the evening.

The Wen family lives in a large house at the easternmost part of Dongcheng District in the provincial capital.

After the two men dismounted, Yang Yanran was still marveling in her heart and hadn't come back to her senses.

Along the way, she had never expected that Sister Shen’s riding skills were so good.

With that riding skill, he could win first place in a horse race.

If it weren’t for the sake of being on par with her, she thought Sister Shen would have arrived here long ago.

But she was also very curious. She heard that Sister Shen was a country girl, but how did she know how to ride?

But on second thought, Sister Shen knows a lot of things, maybe some people are born with extraordinary wisdom.

Moreover, when she saw Sister Shen dismount, she was not out of breath and was in good spirits.

Yang Yanran didn't care about anything else and quickly pulled Shen Yueyao into the house.

He said to the servants and maids in the house: "This is my sister, a distinguished guest in my house. When Sister Shen is in the house, no one should neglect her. If I know that someone has done something wrong, I will not let her off lightly this time."

The majesty of Yang Yanran revealed at this moment was also very intimidating.

Yang Yanran had no choice but to do so, otherwise if she went out to help someone, some people might not know how powerful she was and might not take good care of Wen Moshu.

So housekeeper Yang Yanran is very good at it.

Everyone in the Wen Mansion was wondering what the origin of this stunningly beautiful girl was that deserved the Madam's attention.

I have never seen the lady care so much about anyone.

Shen Yueyao's expression changed, and she smiled and said, "Sister Yang, while it's still not too late, take me to see the head of the Wen family first."

Shen Yueyao came here just to check on the health condition of the Wen family leader and get him cured as soon as possible.

If the timing is right, she can go to another state to pick up Su Xueyi after she finishes the exam.
