Chapter 109: Dirty Hands

After leaving the Gan family's house, several women couldn't help but discuss.

"This Madam Yu is really nice, pretty and kind, and she doesn't have the airs of a shopkeeper at all."

"Yeah, I made a few mistakes when cutting a few pieces of cloth today, but Madam Yu didn't punish me, instead she comforted me."

"Humph, you are a bunch of spineless people, didn't she just give you a few stinky copper coins to buy you all?"

Ni snorted coldly, looking at the women with contempt.

"Look at her. She's very charming and she's not dressed appropriately. The pomegranate skirt she wears makes her look like a prostitute. I don't know who she's seducing in broad daylight!"

"We've worked all day, but we didn't see her husband. There were only a few old women following her around. In my opinion, she might be a concubine who is not allowed to appear in public."

The mistress of a certain family behaved like this. It was obvious that she was a concubine who was not allowed to appear in public. The more Ni Shi spoke, the more she felt that her idea was correct.

Although they had only known each other for a short time, Hong felt very friendly towards Hui Niang from the moment they met. She couldn't bear to see Ni saying bad things about Hui Niang, so she sneered, "What's wrong with her?"

"Madam Yu, you are wearing the most ordinary material and a crappy style. You are not revealing anything that should not be exposed. There is not even a single bright color on your body. I think you are just jealous of my beauty and good figure."

Hong's gaze fell on Ni's hand: "If you look down on me, don't make money from me. You are still holding my money in your hands, but you are spreading rumors. Do you have any conscience?"

Others also felt that Ni was being unreasonable and kept staying away from her.

It's obvious that Ni is stupid. The master hired them to do the work, so they just had to do it honestly. Why would they care whether she is a concubine or not?

This job is easy and rare. Ni doesn't want to do it, but they still want to do it. They have to stay away from Ni, lest she gets caught making up stories about the master

and get themselves implicated. Seeing that everyone was staying away from her, Ni frowned unhappily. In her opinion, these women were all flatterers without any backbone. They

came together as five people, but they split into two groups when they left. Ni was walking alone on the street, feeling that she was being bullied.

Wasn't it just that she wasn't as flattering as them? Was it

necessary to exclude her like this?

After everyone left, Gan Tian puffed up her cheeks.

[That Ni is not a good person, so annoying.]

The little guy's puffy cheeks were so cute that Hui Niang couldn't help pinching them.

"That Ni is not a likable person, but she works very fast."

"She is just a worker. As long as she does her job well, the rest has nothing to do with us."

Dong Cuilian thought Hui Niang was talking to her and nodded.

"That's right. Anyway, we just hired her to do some rough work. At most, we just need to keep a closer eye on her next time she comes."

It's not that she is mean-spirited, but Ni doesn't look like a good person.

Gan Tian still doesn't agree with her mother's idea.

[Although we only asked her to do some rough work, if she really has bad intentions, it will bring trouble. 】

Hui Niang's thoughts on this point were different from her daughter's. Although Ni had some problems, she was still able to do her job. Her family was in need of money, so as long as she was not stupid, she would not do anything too excessive.

Unless there was a greater benefit, Ni would not do anything out of line.

The next morning, several women came early to collect cloth.

"Today's work is more than yesterday's. Everyone, take the cloth and go home to do it."

In addition to the cloth shop that day, several other cloth shops and clothing stores also came up, hoping that they could provide more.

What Hui Niang did not expect was that the best-selling item was the most expensive sleeping pants, but on second thought, it was normal. Ordinary people could not buy many clothes a year, so they naturally knew about sanitary napkins later than those rich people.

For rich people, the price of sleeping pants is completely affordable, so they naturally sell better.

Hui Niang distributed all the cloth and said, "This order is very urgent. It must be completed within three days. If someone can't finish it within three days, they must give up the work in their hands. Do you understand?" Hui

Niang had said this rule before, and everyone knew it, so they took the cloth and went back obediently.

Ni Shi didn't say anything today, but her eyes were rolling around, and no one knew what she was thinking. Gan Tian swore that Ni Shi must have bad intentions. Nothing

happened on the first day, but Ni Shi came to the door at night on the second day.

She rubbed her hands and said with a smile: "Mrs. Gan, my craftsmanship is not very good, and some of the cloth was damaged. Now this ice silk material is not enough. Can you see if you can get me some more?"

Everyone was doing the same job, and no one else came to get the cloth, but she came.

[I don't think it was damaged, but she hid the cloth. ]

Gan Tian frowned.

[Human nature is greedy, this is definitely not an isolated case, and there will be others who will follow suit in the future. We have to think of a way. ]

Gan Tian also worked in the factory during the winter and summer vacations in her previous life, and this situation has been unstoppable.

Not to mention this era, even in modern times, there are still people who are not clean and take things out of the factory.

Some took a few nails, some bottles of glue, and some even took finished products.

There were a lot of orders these days, and Ni was a good worker. Hui Niang didn't want to cause trouble at this time, so she took a new piece of cloth.

"I still have some cloth, but you have to cherish it. This cloth is not cheap. Forget it this time, but I will set rules next time."

Hui Niang said with a smile, as if she was joking. Ni didn't take Hui Niang's words to heart at all.

Since ancient times, doing business has been a man's business, and there are very few female shopkeepers. In Ni's eyes, Hui Niang is a toothless tiger who can only pretend to be good.

Holding the cloth, she went home happily.

As soon as she entered the house, she said loudly: "Son, look, I got another piece of cloth. With the cloth from before, it will be no problem to make you an inner lining."

Ni's son was sixteen years old this year. He was a famous lazy man in the alley. He was lying on the bed at this time. Hearing his mother's words, he sat up impatiently.

"Oh, can't you be generous and make me a coat?"

"Don't you see how torn my clothes are? There are patches all over them and holes all over them. Every time I go out, people laugh at me and say I dress like a beggar. Which girl would want to get to know me?"

Ni was originally quite happy, but her face suddenly darkened when she heard her son's words.

"It's not that I don't want to make clothes for you. This cloth is hidden by me. It's okay to wear it inside, but if you wear it outside, won't people see it?" "

I only worked for two days and earned four hundred coins. Such good work is not easy to find. If I lose it, I will never find it again." Ni

gritted her teeth and said, "Wait for me to work for a few days and save some money. I will go to the cloth shop to buy a piece of good cloth and make you a new dress."
