When Lu Jianhua heard Song Anan say that she bought the pig's stomach specially for him because it was good for his stomach, he immediately ate it more happily.
The kids weren't too interested in the pork belly soup, but they loved the braised spareribs.
Fortunately, Song Anan bought a lot, otherwise there would not be enough to eat.
At noon, several children finished a large plate of ribs.
After eating and drinking, Song Anan took the two pieces of cloth given by Wang Xiaomei and gave them to Ailan.
Before Song An'an could speak, Ailan asked, "Fourth brother's wife, do you still need clothes made?"
Song Anan and Ailan explained the situation, "No, sister-in-law, a friend of mine in the county wants you to help make two sets of clothes.
She thought the style of the dacron shirt you made for me was nice, so she asked me to ask you to make two sets for her.
Of course, she isn't asking you to help her for free, she's willing to pay for the labor.
If you help me make it, the cost for one set of clothes is five dollars, and two sets is ten dollars.
Third sister-in-law, I think this job is good, so I will take it on for you.
If you are busy and don't want to do it, that's fine. I will return the fabric to them later."
When Ailan heard the salary reported by Song Anan, she was dumbfounded.
How can they pay such high wages?
Ten dollars for making two sets of clothes?
I worked in the countryside, but at the end of the year, I might not even get ten yuan from the brigade.
She is very skilled at needlework and if she works hard, she can finish a set in a day.
The prerequisite is that she also takes time to do it during the day and is not working.
If she worked during the day and did it at night, it would be much slower.
But with such high wages, it is definitely more cost-effective to make clothes. Why bother working?
Food costs only a few cents per pound to buy from the brigade, and ten yuan can buy hundreds of pounds of food.
Song Anan gave her such a lucrative job, and Ailan would have to be mentally ill to be unwilling to do it.
"I'm willing to do that. This is a good salary. Thank you so much, Fourth Sister-in-law, for giving me such a good opportunity to make money."
Song Anan smiled and said, "Third sister-in-law, it's because you have good skills that the clothes you make are favored by others.
If you don’t do it well, people won’t ask you to do it.”
"But I have to have this opportunity. I don't know anyone in the county. If it weren't for you, my fourth brother's wife, how could I have gotten this job?"
"Sister-in-law, we are a family, so I won't say any more polite words. I am happy that you and Brother San can make more money, and I will definitely help if I can."
Ailan didn't say thank you again, but asked Song Anan when she would need it.
If she is not in a hurry, she will do it slowly. If she is in a hurry, she will have to hurry up.
Song An'an said, "Third sister-in-law, I'm not in a hurry. Just follow your pace. Just don't tire yourself out."
Ailan responded with a smile.
Afterwards, Ailan told this to Lu's third brother Lu Jianjun.
Lu Jianjun was equally happy.
If Ailan could get some work, she could buy a lot of food with the ten yuan she earned, so that her children could have more to eat.
Like Lu Ailan, Lu Jianjun remembered Song Anan's kindness and knew that it was thanks to Song Anan that their third room had the opportunity to make money.
In the afternoon, Song Anan went back to work.
This time I didn't go to collect grass for the pigs, but went to plant peanuts with my aunts.
She has been collecting grass for pigs by herself. Everything is good about it except that it is too boring.
Aunt Hua asked her to plant peanuts together, so Song Anan simply agreed.
In addition to Aunt Hua, there were many other aunts in the production team who planted peanuts with her.
