"Master, Zhao Yuanyuan is really inexperienced. You...you're deliberately trying to suppress me." Miao Xiuniang's face was extremely ugly, and in her heart, she cursed Hua Xiuniang and Zhao Yuanyuan.
When she saw the look in Jiang Liu's eyes, her face immediately changed to a fawning expression. "Hua Xiu Niang's embroidery skills are excellent, but mine are just as good. How about you transfer me to the children's clothing shop, otherwise, I..."
Miao Xiuniang knew that Jiang Liu had just opened a children's clothing shop, and the new embroiderers were all half-baked and not yet skilled enough. Jiang Liu was currently in dire need of skilled craftsmen.
She felt that Jiang Liu's clothing shop still needed her.
After hearing this, Jiang Liu calmly replied:
"I already have someone in mind for the children's clothing shop. If you don't want it, then leave!"
After a long period of observation, Jiang Liu gradually gained a clear understanding of the character and habits of the garment shop workers.
This Miao embroiderer had two faces, one in public and one in private, which she found very displeasing.
Originally, she intended to hire Hua Xiuniang and another embroiderer, but if Miao Xiuniang hadn't been so clever, she wouldn't have chosen her. Who knew that appearances can be deceiving?
Miao Xiuniang gritted her teeth.
"Alright, since the master dislikes it, then I'll leave." Po Baiyang is nowhere near as good as Huaiyuan, and it's far from home.
She had actually wanted to leave for a long time.
With Miao Xiu Niang gone, the clothing shop is much quieter now.
Although Jiang Liu had never done business before, she was very knowledgeable and could grasp the basics of business very quickly.
With the shopkeeper's dedication, her business is steadily growing.
...Xiajia Village is a little farther from Baiyang than Lingnan Village is. Just after 1 p.m., Qiu Yan and the others arrived at Xiajia Village.
Xiajia Village is located on the south side of Qingyun Town, and it is much larger than Lingnan Village.
"Turn right into the alley ahead, cross the intersection, then turn left again and the second house is my home."
Following Xia Minmin's directions, Ling Qi and his companion soon arrived at a house in their carriage.
Upon arrival, Xia Minmin got off the bus first.
Qiu Yan and Qiu Yumei also got off the bus one after the other.
Qiu Yan and Qiu Yumei carefully observed the small courtyard in front of them. Similar to other houses in Xiajia Village, the courtyard was not large, with an outer wall of adobe bricks and adobe houses inside with paper windows, some of which were dilapidated.
The courtyard was much better than where Qiu Yan had lived before.
However, they still seem poor.
Just then, a little girl of about six years old heard the sound of horses' hooves and ran out of her house.
Upon seeing Xia Minmin, she was overjoyed and hurriedly called out to the woman inside the house, Xia Minmin's birth mother, Madam Guo:
"Mother, eldest sister, eldest sister is back."
The girl is Xia Minxin, Xia Minmin's youngest sister.
After Xia Minxin finished speaking, she began to walk around the carriage, looking back and forth.
Finally, her gaze fell on Qiu Yan. "Sister, is this your carriage?"
She was very curious. Who was this beautiful woman, and what was she doing at her house?
"I'm Xiaoyan's cousin." Qiu Yan nodded gently, looked at her cousin whom she had never met before, took out the sweet cakes she had bought yesterday, and handed them to her.
Xia Minxin glanced at her eldest sister, and seeing her nod, she finally took the sweet cake from Qiu Yan's hand.
"Thank you, cousin."
Qiu Yan smiled and said, "You don't need to be so polite with your cousin."
After Qiu Yan finished speaking, she followed Xia Minmin and her aunt into the courtyard.
The little girl walked around for a while, and when she saw Ling Qi and Ling Ba's two straight figures, she felt a little timid.
"Little girl, how old are you?" Ling Qi asked.
Xia Minxin took a few steps back, pursing her lips and remaining silent.
