Early the next morning, just as the sky was getting light, Tai Yongan came riding on a big black horse, accompanied by a white horse and ten veterans.
After a few pleasantries, Liu Qi accompanied the ten veterans through the border and headed for Taijia Village. The others in the caravan quickly packed up their belongings, harnessed their horses, and continued their advance into the grasslands.
In Taijia Village, because there are mountains blocking the way to the east, when the sun jumps out from the top of the mountain, every household has already had breakfast and some have even done a lot of work.
Before that, all the villagers, young and old, rushed to the government office to file a complaint and witnessed the tragic death of the Wang father and son with their own eyes.
Although the ones who did it were not their family members, and they could not show their joy because they did not want to provoke the Wang family's anger, this did not prevent the whole village, young and old, from secretly feeling happy in their hearts.
It’s so satisfying!
Evil will be punished, and it will be punished immediately!
Let that idiot young man come to rob the workshop, huh, not only did he not get the workshop, but he also lost his life!
Let’s see who dares to bully the Tai family in the future. God has sharp eyes and will make the bad guys pay the price on the spot!
Of course, this matter was also widely spread in the city.
Some people say Taijia Village is a disaster-stricken village, bringing bad luck to anyone who comes into contact with it, while others say Taijia Village is somewhat mysterious, as if it is blessed by gods, and no one can harm it.
No matter which one it is, Taijia Village has once again become famous.
The Tai family is not easy to mess with. These six words have been deeply engraved in everyone's heart.
This is just one of the consequences. Another is that the cashmere workshop business is becoming more and more prosperous.
Everyone was curious about what was so good about the cashmere clothes and mats woven by the cashmere workshop, why merchants from the south came all the way to buy them, and why the county magistrate's son coveted them and was even willing to risk his life for them.
As a result, there were four or five horse-drawn carriages coming and going at the entrance of Taijia Village every day.
Yang Lihua had been studying since she was young, and her vision and knowledge were much higher than those of ordinary peasant women.
Although the knitting technique was novel, it wasn't particularly complex. If someone put in the effort to figure it out, it would likely leak out quickly. Rather than worrying about losing business later, it was better to secure the customer base now.
Therefore, whenever guests come to Tai's house, she will try her best to show them the benefits of cashmere clothes.
If a customer is interested in placing an order, she will write a detailed contract, stipulating the number of cashmere clothing sets and cushions, and the delivery date. Most importantly, the customer must pay in full in advance!
This eliminates the possibility that the customer may go back on his word and put the workshop in a passive position.
The weather in the north is cold, and thick clothing is necessary for almost half the year. These cashmere clothes are the best for keeping warm when worn next to the skin, and they don't look bulky when worn with a cotton robe or fur coat.
Especially for wealthy families, dressing warmly not only ensures warmth but also takes into account style.
This cashmere coat is especially popular!
Some families not only prepare clothes for themselves, but also think of their relatives and friends in the south. They buy some extra clothes and add them as gifts. It is novel and practical, and it is also a good choice.
As a result, orders for Tai's workshop exploded and the factory was completely in a frenzy.
The young girls and wives from each family wished they didn't even have to go home. At night, they would just nap on the kang in the Tai family's backyard and then continue knitting when they woke up.
Yang Lihua was not stingy either. After discussing with the old man, she did not raise everyone's wages, but only provided three meals a day.
Although they didn't eat white rice and fine noodles every day, they definitely made sure everyone was well fed. Liu Dongniang was especially skilled in cooking, and she could make even coarse grains fragrant and sweet.
Suddenly, dozens of people came to eat, and even if Liu Dongniang and Erya grew eight hands, it would not be enough.
So, Uncle Tai San helped select four neat and capable old ladies in the village to help Liu Dongniang prepare meals.
They were responsible for all the chores, including washing and cutting vegetables, making pancakes with batter, and cooking rice porridge. Liu Dongniang was only responsible for adjusting the taste.
Liu Dongniang finally breathed a sigh of relief and had some free time to make something delicious for her precious niece.
It just so happened that Manager Min came over yesterday and drank with the old man, bringing a large piece of mutton.
Liu Dongniang picked up a kitchen knife and chopped the meat and green onions, preparing to make dumplings.
Yang Lihua brought people to the front yard to move cashmere yarn. Seeing her fat daughter sitting on the doorstep with her big eyes smiling, she knew that her sister-in-law was going to cook for her again.
She went forward, hugged her daughter and kissed her, and then told her sister-in-law, "When you are so busy, if you finally have some free time, please take a break. Don't prepare food for this greedy fat girl alone."
Liu Dongniang, clutching a kitchen knife in each hand, couldn't spare a moment, so she could only shake her head and say, "That won't do. I've been so busy at home these past few days that I haven't been able to take care of Zhuzhu. She's lost weight. I have to make her something delicious so she can put some weight back on!"
Yang Lihua subconsciously changed her arm. Her daughter felt so heavy that she felt like she had lost weight.
Zhuzhu was afraid that the dumpling would fly away, so she quickly stretched out her chubby hands to cover her mother's mouth, and said in a baby voice, "Mom, Zhuzhu has lost weight, really lost weight!"
Yang Lihua didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She pulled her daughter's mischievous little hand away and said helplessly, "Okay, you've lost weight, you've lost weight! You're so thin that your mother can't even hold you!"
Liu Dongniang laughed heartily, and Erya also laughed while stuffing firewood into the kitchen.
At this time, the old man and Mr. Tai San came back from outside. Hearing the laughter, he asked, "Is there any happy event at home, or is someone coming to buy cashmere clothes again?"
Yang Lihua quickly responded, "Dad, Uncle San, we're just teasing Zhuzhu! This girl must be saying that she's lost weight and wants to eat well!"
Grandpa Tai immediately picked up his fat granddaughter, shook her carefully, and replied, "Oh, Zhuzhu has indeed lost weight. Hurry up and make her something delicious. Eat whatever she wants. My granddaughter can't let her suffer!"
