Chapter 818 The Power of Role Model
"Madam, don't just listen to Yulan, you have to listen to us too."
"that is."
Zhang Juexia made a gesture of invitation, "Hurry up and speak, I'm listening!"
"Madam, Yulan only mentioned that we helped her take care of the children, but she never mentioned that she helped us."
“Yes, ma’am, Magnolia not only helps us, but also helps our children.
Originally, because I gave birth to two daughters, I couldn't hold my head up at home every day. My mother-in-law always blamed me and said that I gave birth to two money-losing things.
Well, ever since my two daughters and I learned embroidery from Yulan, my mother-in-law has treated us very differently!
She stopped swearing and slowly took over the housework.
The children and I can finally have a quiet day.”
Li Yulan quickly interrupted everyone and said, "Actually, all these things were Madam's ideas.
Without her instruction, I would be powerless even if I wanted to!
That day, I discussed with my wife that after a while, she would help us invite a few skilled embroiderers from the workshops outside to come to the village and teach everyone!"
"Yulan, you have taught us enough."
“Not enough, not nearly enough.
I tell you, if you want to earn more money, you have to ask skilled embroiderers outside to teach you."
Zhang Juexia glanced at everyone and nodded in agreement, "Yulan is right, I'll plan this matter carefully when I return to the county.
We are closer to the county town, so I will ask the embroiderers from the county town to come to the village to teach everyone.
If you really want to earn more money, you have to study hard.
I will give everyone a chance.”
"Madam, I heard from Yulan that you have workshops in the county town, Jinshui Town, and Yejia Village."
"Yes."
"Yulan said that the embroiderers in the workshop who do a good job can earn one to two taels of silver a month. Is this true?"
Zhang Juexia saw everyone's expectant eyes and asked, "Don't you believe what Yulan said?"
"It's not that I don't believe it, but the Madam is here!"
"That's right. When we hear some words from Madam, we will feel more at ease!"
Li Yulan was not angry with everyone, but looked at Zhang Juexia with a smile, "Sister-in-law, please stop keeping everyone in suspense.
I've said it many times, but they only half believed it.
If you tell them this is true, I think they will believe it."
“Then I won’t keep you in suspense.
Yulan didn't lie to you. If you learn embroidery well, you can indeed earn one to two taels of silver a month.
A skilled embroiderer could earn five taels of silver a month."
After Zhang Juexia finished speaking, the women in the room stopped what they were doing, stared at Zhang Juexia with wide eyes in disbelief.
Zhang Juexia couldn't help but look at Li Yulan, meaning, look, they may not believe what I say!
Without waiting for Li Yulan to speak, the women stood up in unison, put the needlework in their hands on the table, and knelt on the ground with a thud.
"Thank you, ma'am. We will definitely learn embroidery well."
The women had loud voices to begin with, and after shouting so loudly, the adults were fine, but Ye Ben and Qin Mu were scared.
The two boys burst into tears, and the women kneeling on the ground stood up on their own without waiting for Zhang Juexia to ask them to.
They all came forward to coax Ye Ben and Qin Mu.
Qin Mu was better off. After all, these people were familiar faces, and he stopped crying soon.
The more Ye Ben tried to coax her, the harder she cried.
Several women were sweating profusely in anxiety. "Madam, we didn't mean to do that. What should we do?"
Zhang Juexia held Ye Ben in his arms, patting him with both hands, and muttering, "Don't be afraid, Ben'er, everyone likes you!"
Ye Ben finally stopped crying.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"Ma'am, we won't disturb you and Yulan from talking today."
Li Yulan did not force them to stay and prepared to get up and see them off.
Zhang Juexia patted Ye Ben and told everyone, "You can talk about what I said today in the village.
After all, Yulan's energy is limited. If everyone really wants to earn more money, I will ask the embroiderers from the workshops outside to come to the village from time to time to teach everyone."
"Ma'am, we would certainly like to earn more money."
"Yes, we don't want to lose to our own men. They can earn one or two taels of silver a month from the workshop, and so can we."
"Okay, you're ambitious. When I return to the county, I'll ask a skilled embroiderer to teach you."
After sending the women away, Li Yulan looked at Zhang Juexia with gratitude, "Sister-in-law, I've been thinking about hiring an embroiderer for a long time.
Now that this matter has been resolved today, I can finally breathe a sigh of relief."
"This is all your fault. Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
“Sister-in-law, it’s not that I don’t want to tell you, but these people’s foundation is too weak.
If we invite embroiderers too early, I'm afraid it will dampen their enthusiasm.
It would be better if I could teach them step by step first. Once they get the hang of it and know that they can earn money by sewing, their attitude towards embroidery will be different."
"I've discovered that Yulan is no longer the same Yulan she used to be. You and Eryong have both improved."
"We both have such a good teacher like my sister-in-law. If we don't make any progress, then we will be the dumbest people in the world."
Ye Ben started crying again at an inappropriate time. Zhang Juexia touched him and said, "Yulan, he peed again."
Qin Mu was not far behind. Zhang Juexia and Li Yulan both smelled a strange odor. Li Yulan sighed helplessly, "He really knows how to choose the time!
We finally had a chance to talk, and he showed up to join in the fun."
“Come on, one peed and the other pooped.
It’s just hard for their mothers.”
After a busy period, Ye Ben and Qin Mu both put on clean and fresh diapers and waved their arms happily again.
Zhang Juexia and Li Yulan looked at their children and smiled helplessly.
"Sister-in-law, you must take the matter of hiring an embroiderer to heart."
"I know. I'll do it when I get back to the county."
“I thank my sister-in-law on their behalf.
They are all very kind, and they have helped me a lot since I came to the village."
"I see. But you're not doing badly either!"
I will teach you my cooking skills."
“They helped me, so I will help them.
I can do nothing but some embroidery.
Actually, I was also influenced by my sister-in-law and the masters. If you hadn't brought me up well, I wouldn't have had such thoughts."
"Then when you return to Ye Village one day, thank your master."
"Master should be thanked, but doesn't sister-in-law think that I am not good enough in my studies?"
"How can you say that? You've done very well."
