Chapter 464 Five Days of Marriage Leave

Shen Qing knew these two disguised methods of preservation.

One is to steam or boil it directly, dry it in the sun, and grind it into powder;

One method is to mash it into a paste when it is raw, filter out the residue, and dry the slurry after sedimentation to produce sweet potato starch. The residue is not wasted and is used to feed livestock and poultry.

Both have their own advantages and are considered to be very good preservation methods.

However, the more ways to preserve it, the better. She thought about it and suggested: "During this time, I will work with the women in the village to try out other methods. I will tell you if I succeed.

In addition, this disguised preservation method is actually a different way of eating. Each method has many steps, one after another. You can write a whole book to introduce the preparation and consumption methods. "

The main thing is that the books of this dynasty were bound with thread and had illustrations. If they were too thick, not only would it be difficult to bind them, but they would also be inconvenient to read.

Jiang Xiangzhong's admiration grew stronger, and he replied solemnly, "I understand."

After the two of them finished discussing the details, Jiang Xiangdong arrived with a large number of servants.

Without Shen Qing saying anything, Jiang Xiangzhong took the initiative to step back.

Mother has finally come back, and all kinds of matters are waiting for her to decide. I can't waste her time.

The servants all bowed in unison, their eyes filled with tears of excitement: "Master, you are finally back!"

They knew their master had returned, but all the villagers were at his house, and they couldn't squeeze in at all. Thinking that their master would come to inspect their work and they could see him later, they returned to the workshop to work.

I didn’t expect that the master would call them to meet him alone. The master has them in his heart!

Shen Qing smiled and said in advance: "I came back in a hurry this time. The shop in the capital has just been opened not long ago, so I can't stay in the village for too long;

I called you here to ask you something. Of course, whether you agree or not is up to you. It's your private matter, and I won't force you."

The servants looked at each other, their eyes filled with confusion.

What's the matter? Why is the master so cautious?

"Yes, we understand. Master, please speak."

Shen Qing said: "I came back this time mainly to hold a wedding banquet for Xiaoyu. Gang Jiang and his men said that there are many couples in the village who also want to hold a wedding banquet. If everyone comes together, it will be lively and save the cost of the wedding banquet.

So I'm thinking of asking if there are any of you who are in love and want to get married? Would you be willing to hold a wedding ceremony with the villagers? If you are willing, please let me know. If you are not willing, please don't say anything."

In fact, she thought that not many people were willing to do so, but as soon as she finished speaking, the scene became lively.

Then seven or eight couples stood up, knelt down and kowtowed, saying, "Thank you, Master!"

Shen Qing: ...Okay, she thought that people pay more attention to being unique and special when getting married, but she forgot that these are people who have just filled their stomachs for a short time, and there are still many people out there who don’t have enough to eat.

Being able to get married and have a wedding banquet is already the best thing for them.

"I will give each couple a piece of bright red cotton cloth. You can make your own wedding clothes. This cloth is only for the newlyweds to use. You will also receive five days of wedding leave.

This time, we're all having a wedding together, so I'll pay for it all. You don't have to spend any money. If you have a separate wedding in the future, you can just pay for it yourself."

When the girl heard that her master was going to give her a whole piece of cotton cloth, bright red in color, her face was filled with joy.

A whole piece of cotton cloth can make at least three sets of clothes. The master said that it is only for the newlyweds to use. That is to say, after making two sets of wedding dresses, the red veil, red silk flowers, red cloth shoes, etc. can also be made!

They could actually wear brand new cotton wedding gowns! New wedding gowns that were unique to them!

Woohoo, it turns out that following the master is the real way to live a good life...

The men were very happy to hear that the wedding banquet did not require any money. Before, they were worried about how to invite and who to invite.

How many tables should be set up for the banquet, what dishes should be served on each table, and how much money should be spent per table... If there are too few, it will look shabby and embarrassing for those who come to congratulate, and if there are too many, it is really difficult for the family to afford it;

I didn’t expect that the master would take this into consideration for them!

Immediately gratefully said: "Master, I don't need marriage leave. I'm idle anyway, so I can work!"

"Yes, five days is too long. It's uncomfortable to rest."

The master is different from the workers in the past. Those who rest do not get paid, but the vacations given by the master are all paid. The master is good, and they are not ungrateful. How can they get five days' wages for nothing just for getting married, especially now that the master even pays for the banquet for them!

Shen Qing smiled and said, "Five days is not enough for a once-in-a-lifetime event."

Getting married means entering the next stage of life and is a big event. However, people these days cannot travel and there are not many other entertainment activities, so five days seems like too long.

But with five days off, it's nice to just lie down.

The fabric category of the mall was opened. Shen Qing went into his main room and when he came out, he handed the bright red cloth to the newlyweds.

Every household has a woman who can sew and make clothes, so she doesn't have to worry about making clothes.

The women in each household looked at the bright red cloth and couldn't help but reach out and touch it carefully. The dense and delicate feel made them exclaim in amazement: "This cotton cloth is so good! It feels so comfortable!"

"It's much finer and smoother than the cotton we have here. Did the master bring this back from the capital?"

"The capital is different. Even the same cotton fabrics are more beautiful than ours! They look like silk."

"Our child is so lucky to have cotton cloth from the capital city made into her wedding dress."

......

Shen Qing: Anything produced in the mall must be of high quality!

After a while, Jiang Dabao came running over, his voice already heard before he even arrived: "Sister-in-law, my second uncle asked me to tell you that they have asked the children of each family, and they are all willing to do it together!

Please come over and agree on the date and dishes today. Prepare what is necessary and send someone to buy what is not available."

Shen Qing then stood up and headed towards Mr. Jiang's house.

Everyone looked at Shen Qing's departing figure, feeling distressed and thinking that it was not easy for her master. She had built several workshops in the village, and several shops outside were inseparable from her.

They have hundreds of servants to worry about, and they have to ask their master's opinion on all the big and small matters in the village. It would be impossible for each of them to do it alone.

No, if it were them, no one would ask for their opinions...

Shen Qing thought it was okay.

After all, she was in a hurry this time, and everyone was following her schedule. Otherwise, if it were the leisurely life in the village, there would be no need for such a tight schedule.

When we arrived at Mr. Jiang's house, we found that the room was packed with people, even the Lei family members were there!

Shen Qing understood that this was to gather all the families who needed to hold weddings together to discuss things.

The center seat was empty, so Jiang Dabao led Shen Qing to sit down at the seat, and then stood beside him with a proud look on his face.
