Jiang Liu paused slightly and moved a little further away, as being so close made her uncomfortable.
Unexpectedly, Sister-in-law Zhao insisted on coming back to her.
Mr. and Mrs. Qiu Yumei were speechless.
"Second sister-in-law, I heard that Miss Yuanyuan works as an embroiderer in your clothing shop. Do you think your clothing shop needs any more people? I can also do embroidery." Sister-in-law Zhao got straight to the point.
As she spoke, she glanced at her daughter in the courtyard and saw the two of them take the embroidery from the bamboo basket and hand it to Jiang Liu.
"Take a look at my embroidery, how's it?"
Qiu Yumei looked embarrassed after hearing this.
The eldest sister-in-law's wishful thinking had now turned against her second sister-in-law.
Jiang Liu understood Zhao Dasao's intention, so she took the embroidery in her hand and examined it carefully.
She thought to herself: Since Sister-in-law Zhao and Yumei are sisters-in-law, they're family, so it's okay to use them.
But she quickly dismissed the idea.
At a cursory glance, Zhao's embroidery is passable.
Upon closer inspection, the stitches were uneven, the embroidery was sparse, and the finish was not smooth enough.
Most of her marriages were to be sold to wealthy families, where the men and women were very picky about their clothes.
She shook her head:
“Sister-in-law, our shop has enough staff right now, so we don’t need to fill any positions. Besides, it’s the off-season for clothing shops, which is right after the New Year.”
The smile on Sister-in-law Zhao's face froze for a moment.
Hmph, these rich girls from the city have eyes that look up to the heavens, looking down on us country women and children from our humble village.
Zhao Yuanyuan is so lucky. Qiu Yan treats her like a sister. In the future, it's very likely that she and this rich heiress will become sisters-in-law.
Qiu Dafu is not young anymore, how come he has such good fortune?
Sister-in-law Zhao started hating the rich again.
“Oh, look at what you’re saying. I’ve heard that you have more than one shop. If you think I’m too old, I… I have two daughters… Cai’er and Ping’er. Can they work at your clothing shop? Although we’re related, we don’t ask for much. Just the same treatment as Zhao Yuanyuan would be fine.”
After Zhao Dasao's words, Qiu Yumei's face turned dark.
She was displeased and glanced at Zhao San, who gave an awkward smile, still feeling helpless.
She knew Zhao Cai'er and Zhao Ping'er better than anyone.
The two of them argued fiercely all day long about who did more work and who did less, each afraid of being taken advantage of.
If someone like that went to Second Sister-in-law's clothing shop, wouldn't he turn the place upside down?
Furthermore, how could they possibly know how to do such delicate work as embroidery?
Zhao Da Sao completely ignored Qiu Yumei's changing expression, focusing only on pleasing Jiang Liu.
"Cai'er, Ping'er, come and greet your second aunt."
"Hello, Second Aunt." Zhao Cai'er and Zhao Ping'er transformed into quails, behaving respectfully and obsequiously in front of Jiang Liu, their obedience beyond words.
I heard that Zhao Yuanyuan is now the head of a clothing store.
If they could work in a clothing store like Zhao Yuanyuan, they would be able to do whatever they wanted in this village.
Furthermore, this also helps them find husbands.
"Look at my two daughters. They are young and learn quickly. Why don't you take them in? I guarantee they will work hard."
Ginger willow......
This Sister-in-law Zhao looks like a shrewd person.
She was caught in a dilemma.
Jiang Liu glanced at Qiu Yumei, whose expression remained indifferent, and she did not speak up.
