"I thought that after you finish preparing for Mr. Jiang's flower viewing banquet, you should have learned a lot. Then when you go to prepare banquets, you will definitely be able to help me. Wouldn't that be a good time to give you a raise?"
Mrs. Ye San thought about it and nodded repeatedly, saying, "Sister-in-law, as long as you don't think I'm stupid, I will follow you in the future!"
The two of them finally started talking. Mrs. Ye was worried that Mrs. Ye would feel unbalanced when she saw how much she earned!
Now looking at her cheerful look, Mrs. Ye couldn't help but blame herself in her heart. She had been judging others by her own standards before.
Sister Ye leaned close to her and whispered, "I've been really nervous about the fourth son's wife lately. I'm afraid you'll pick a fight with me too."
"Okay, sister-in-law, even if you don't compare me to good people, you won't compare me to her, right?"
Before Third Sister Ye could finish her words, she heard Guo's voice coming from the door: "Who are you competing with? Sister-in-law, I'm sorry, I just got to the door and suddenly felt tired, so I stopped to rest for a while, and I happened to hear you two talking."
When Mrs. Ye saw her come in, her heart immediately skipped a beat.
No wonder the old saying goes, don’t criticize others when you have idle conversation.
She seldom talked about others behind their backs, but when she did, she was caught in the act.
Mrs. Ye had already prepared herself mentally for Mrs. Guo to start losing her temper, but Mrs. Ye San patted her hand and whispered, "I didn't hear you!"
Just now, when Mrs. Ye spoke, her voice was very low. Although Mrs. Ye San spoke loudly, she did not mention Guo's name in her words.
Sure enough, Guo walked a few more steps into the house with a smile on her face. She certainly didn't look like she was going to come in and cause trouble.
"Didn't Third Sister-in-law hear anything?" Guo asked with a smile.
"I said I didn't hear you coming, and you suddenly startled me when you spoke."
"I just got here." Guo said, turning her gaze to Sister Ye, and said with a more flattering smile: "Sister-in-law, although my skills in making clothes are not very good, it is not a problem for me to help in the kitchen!
"Second sister-in-law has endless work to do now, so you can't just take Third sister-in-law with you and ignore me when you go out!
“Although we all fled the famine outside the Great Wall together, you all still have some savings.
“Only the two of us spent almost all our money on getting married, and all the furniture and furnishings in the house were finally left behind.
“Even if it wasn’t crushed, it couldn’t have been brought all the way here.
"Old Four went out to look for a job but couldn't find a suitable one, so I'm the only one left to go out and earn some money.
"Otherwise, what will we do if the baby is born in a few months and we don't have a penny?"
After hearing what Guo had said, Sister Ye started to have a headache and said quickly, "Fourth daughter-in-law, it's not that I don't want to take you with me, but I have to stay at Mr. Jiang's house for several days.
"He's already got the kitchen helpers ready. Even the third son's wife was forced in by me. I really can't bring anyone else."
When Guo heard this, her expression changed instantly.
She was smiling just now, but now her face is so long. If you don’t know, you would think that Mrs. Ye owes her a lot of money!
"Sister-in-law, Third Sister-in-law and I are both your siblings, there should be a limit to your partiality, right?
"Or is it that my fourth child is not as important as the third child in your heart, so you are only willing to take the third sister-in-law and not me?"
"You're pregnant now, so it's not good to keep having surgery. It's better to just stay at home and let the fourth child go out and find a job."
Seeing that Mrs. Ye was adamant and refused to change her tune no matter what she said, Mrs. Guo became a little impatient.
She didn't go to help in the kitchen to make money, her real purpose was to learn from him.
She used to cook at home all the time and felt that she had some talent for cooking.
But after marrying into the Ye family, she deliberately pretended not to know how to do it, just to do less work.
Today, when she heard Mrs. Ye say that she wanted to teach Mrs. Ye San how to cook, her mind suddenly became active.
She still remembers clearly how Mrs. Ye sold a recipe for fifty taels of silver!
If I could learn my sister-in-law's craft and then take it to the capital to sell it, wouldn't it be as easy as money falling from the sky!
Guo was thinking very hard, but no matter what she said, Mrs. Ye kept making excuses and refused to agree.
Finally, Guo gritted her teeth and begged, "Sister-in-law, I'm just bored staying at home every day. Just take me out. I just want to relax and broaden my horizons. I won't ask you for wages, is that okay?"
Seeing that Mrs. Guo had said so much, Mrs. Ye really didn't know how to refuse.
She was not the type to refuse others. If what Guo had done before had not been so outrageous, she might have agreed to it long ago.
But now Guo changed her previous character and started to persuade her with both soft and hard tactics, and Mrs. Ye felt that she could not bear it anymore.
Third Sister Ye quickly poked her from behind and said helpfully, "Fourth Wife, it's not that we don't want to take you with us, it's mainly because this trip will take more than ten days, and it's really inconvenient for you when you're pregnant.
"If you get sick, we two sisters-in-law won't be able to explain to the fourth brother when we get back, right?"
Seeing that these two people refused to agree today, Mrs. Guo immediately put away her pleading expression, turned around angrily and went back to her room.
After watching Guo leave, Sister Ye let out a long breath and patted her chest in fear, saying, "Oh, thank goodness you were here. If you hadn't spoken up for me, I would have almost agreed to her."
