Jiang Yimian just smiled and said, "We hire both men and women, but women make up the majority. Ordinary jobs are thirty coins a day, and special jobs are forty coins a day."
Hearing this, the women's eyes lit up.
Zheng Xiulian asked curiously, "What's so special about it?"
Although she didn't know exactly what soap was, she knew Jiang Yatou; everything she made was something new and interesting.
The last bucket of milk tea was so good that not only did the kids love it, but even her husband praised it, constantly complimenting Jiang Yatou. Naturally, this soap must be top-notch too.
Jiang Yimian simply smiled and said, "You'll find out tomorrow."
Seeing that they couldn't get any information from them, the women didn't linger and hurriedly went home, clearly intending to share the news.
When Jiang Yimian left the workshop, it was already evening. Just as she was about to go back with Lu Cijian and the others, she was stopped by a somewhat hesitant female voice.
Grandma Sun looked at Jiang Yimian, then at Wen Shi who was standing beside her with her head down, not daring to speak. She remained silent for a moment, seemingly unsure of how to begin.
Seeing this, Jiang Yimian told Zhao Dashu and the others to go back first, while she took Grandma Sun and Madam Wen to the edge of the workshop, away from the village path where many people were coming and going.
Seeing that there was no one around, Old Mrs. Sun said to Mrs. Wen, "Take it out."
Ms. Wen was somewhat reluctant, but under the old lady's cold gaze, she reluctantly counted out twenty coins from her purse and handed them to Jiang Yimian.
"Hey, that's all for twenty coins. Chen Guixiang is so stingy, she didn't give me much."
Jiang Yatou scared away the piece of konjac that she had finally managed to find.
Jiang Yimian looked at the copper coin but did not take it. She said, "This was given to her by Chen Guixiang, so it is hers. As for her eavesdropping on the prescription, I will pretend that it never happened. Grandma, you don't need to worry about it."
If Chen Guixiang really stole her business, she might actually deal with the Wen family as well. However, it hasn't come to that point yet. The recipe hasn't been completely leaked, so her business won't be taken away, and she's too lazy to pursue it.
After all, Wen had made amends by keeping watch at the village entrance these past few days and bringing people to the Li family.
Upon hearing this, Madam Wen's displeasure vanished instantly. She stuffed all the copper coins back into her purse and said with a smile, "Mother-in-law, I told you that Jiang girl didn't care about these twenty copper coins, but you insisted that I bring them. It's nothing, isn't it?"
"If it weren't for me, the Li family wouldn't be in this state now. I see that almost everything in the house has been smashed, and we even had to pay compensation. I'm afraid life won't be easy for us from now on."
Grandma Sun frowned, glared at Madam Wen, and continued, "Jiang girl, this is my fault for not disciplining the family properly. If your daughter-in-law does anything wrong in the future, just come to me and tell me. I will definitely not let her off easily."
She was already somewhat resentful about the time she wronged the Jiang family, otherwise she wouldn't have specifically asked Xiao Hu to deliver goat milk to the Jiang family. Now, the Wen family has actually caused this trouble again.
While watching the commotion in the afternoon, Chen Guixiang was busy stopping the people who were vandalizing the place. She only had time to go to the Sun family to scold them just now, and that's when she found out that this matter was also related to the Wen family.
Jiang Yimian didn't respond. How Grandma Sun disciplined her daughter-in-law was a matter for the Sun family, and had nothing to do with her.
Seeing that it was getting dark, just as they were about to leave, Madam Wen suddenly said, "Jiang girl, I just heard that your workshop is looking for workers, thirty coins a day, is that true?"
If she earns a penny every day, her mother-in-law will naturally stop bothering her and might even support her.
Grandma Sun slapped Wen on the head in annoyance, saying, "What does the Jiang family's workshop hiring have to do with you? Stop causing trouble."
She was really annoyed by her daughter-in-law's greedy nature.
But the other party seems to lack common sense. She just offended Jiang Yatou, and now she wants to come and work. She doesn't know what her daughter-in-law is thinking.
Seeing that Madam Wen was about to continue speaking, Old Madam Sun quickly said, "Jiang girl, don't worry, I will definitely not let Madam Wen cause trouble. You can focus on recruiting people, my family will not come to join in the fun."
She was too ashamed to let the Sun family join in the fun, so she decided to just focus on farming.
Jiang Yimian glanced at Wen Shi, and then, thinking of Sun's second daughter-in-law, said, "Wen Shi's matter is her matter, but others can also give it a try."
Ms. Wen is indeed not suitable to help in the workshop. She has too many thoughts on her mind. If she really came, she would have to be on guard against people figuring out the recipe every day.
There's no such thing as a thousand days of guarding against thieves if you're a thief yourself.
However, I heard that Sun's second daughter-in-law used to be an embroiderer and is very skilled. She might be able to help out at the workshop.
Grandma Sun was taken aback, but immediately understood what she meant, and quickly said, "Don't worry, Jiang girl, I will keep an eye on Wen Shi."
Jiang Yimian nodded and walked straight up the mountain. Even after walking a long way, she could still hear Wen Shi's unwilling voice, but it was quickly suppressed by Grandma Sun.
By this time, it was completely dark, but fortunately, a full moon was still hanging in the sky, which was enough to make out the path beneath our feet.
Just as I was hesitating whether to take out a flashlight from my spatial storage to illuminate the area, I saw a blurry black figure standing under a tree not far away, which looked rather frightening in the moonlight.
She had just touched the curved dagger at her waist when, a second later, Lu Cijian blew on the tinderbox in his hand and said, "It's me."
The boy's handsome profile was illuminated by the dim firelight, but the smile in his voice was clearly conveyed.
Jiang Yimian was taken aback, then relaxed and asked curiously, "Why didn't you leave?"
They were trying to scare her in this pitch-black place. If she hadn't realized it was a familiar presence, she would have attacked them immediately.
Lu Cijian simply came closer and lit the way for Jiang Yimian, casually saying, "I'm lighting the way for you because you're afraid of the dark."
Jiang Yimian smiled but didn't say much.
The two walked towards the small depression, exchanging a few words occasionally. Lu Cijian spoke very little, but every word he said was answered.
When they fell silent again, Lu Cijian suddenly said, "It was the same when we came back from the hot springs."
Jiang Yimian paused, suddenly recalling their encounter at the hot springs half a year ago. She found it amusing, glanced at the person beside her, and said lightly, "That time is different from this time."
At that time, she was so worried that the person in front of her would do something bad to the small depression that she didn't have any other thoughts.
Now, however, he walks lightly and is not in any life-threatening danger.
Moreover, the person next to her seemed to have grown taller; someone who was already a head taller than her seemed even taller now.
She gestured to show the height difference between them, and was about to speak when Lu Cijian leaned closer, his bright eyes fixed on her.
The distance between the two suddenly closed, their breaths mingling. Jiang Yimian was stunned, staring at the handsome face magnified several times in front of her, her heart pounding.
That strange feeling of helplessness in my heart seemed to be beginning to sprout.
Lu Cijian stared at the beautiful face in front of her without speaking. Her gaze lingered on the full, red lips for a long time before she forced herself to look away and said in a clear voice, "It is different."
