Chapter 267: Expelling people and establishing authority
Then, she started to operate on Wen Yan's face.
Her technique was soft yet powerful and very comfortable. By the time she was done, Wen Yan was drowsy.
Wen Yan gave her full marks without hesitation.
Xianglian was very excited and bowed repeatedly to express her gratitude.
With Xianglian leading the way and Wen Yan being so kind, the people behind them became much bolder.
It can be seen that these girls are learning very hard.
The technique and strength are very good.
It wasn't until a new 'clean-faced lady' came on the scene that Wen Yan stopped it just as it started.
Wen Yan turned over and sat up, grabbing her hand: "Why are your hands so rough? They scratched my face so hard just now!"
The woman was in her early twenties and quite pretty.
She nervously retracted her hand, not daring to look into Wen Yan's eyes.
"I've prepared a large jar of hand cream for each of you. Just follow my instructions every day to remove the calluses and apply it to your hands. After a month, your hands shouldn't be so rough anymore."
Aunt Liu mentioned her family background.
Although her family was poor, her husband and mother-in-law loved her very much.
She is only responsible for household affairs, and the roughness of her hands is considered good among many students.
Although other people's hands are not as delicate as the girl's, they are not calloused.
It would never be like her hands.
The woman stammered, lowered her head and was unable to speak.
He also secretly winked at Aunt Liu, hoping that she would plead for him.
Wen Yan lost his patience when she didn't answer.
Aunt Liu had been observing Yan Yan's expression. Seeing her change, she immediately urged the woman, "I watch you remove the calluses and protect your hands every day. What's the condition of your hands? Tell me now!"
The woman saw that she could no longer conceal the truth, and Aunt Liu refused to help her.
Only then did he begin to explain hesitantly.
Wen Yan raised her hand to stop her: "Forget it, you don't have to explain.
I see you don't care much for this job, so you don't have to come from now on. I've wasted a month learning the craft, so I'll let Aunt Liu pay you 500 wen later."
"No!" The woman panicked and hurriedly explained, "I didn't mean to do that. I just felt that I was learning a craft, eating delicious food and drinking spicy drinks every day, and having to do nothing, while my mother-in-law was busy running around at home, working hard. I felt sorry for her, so I gave her half of the hand cream."
"My dear scholar, please forgive me this time for my filial piety. From now on, I will do my best to do my job and will never use hand lotion to show my filial piety again."
Wen Yan said nothing.
Pei'er stepped forward and said, "You are so unreasonable. Since my lady gave you the hand cream, the hand cream is yours. You can use it as you wish. My lady is too lazy to care about this trivial matter.
You don't even need any hand cream, as long as your hands can be restored to the same condition as everyone else's.
But you took the things, but they didn't meet our requirements.
I've set a precedent for you today.
What should we do if others follow our example, cutting corners for customers, and stealing their supplies?
My daughter opened a business, not to do charity."
Pei'er's words were so loud that everyone was afraid to breathe.
Even Aunt Liu lowered her eyes and looked intently, not daring to say a word.
"There is no order without rules. Aunt Liu, please take her away now." Pei'er took out a string of money and handed it to Aunt Liu.
Aunt Liu took the money and pulled the woman away.
The woman struggled continuously and cried anxiously.
Aunt Liu pushed her out of the yard and scolded her, "What are you making such a fuss about? I've been telling you every day for the past month. If you don't cherish your opportunity, you can't blame others."
The woman was so anxious that she kept wiping away tears and wanted to ask Aunt Liu to intercede for her, but Aunt Liu slammed the gate shut.
In the courtyard.
The 'clean-faced ladies' were silent as a cicada in fear.
Be careful in everything you do.
Fortunately, after the people behind took the test one by one, Wen Yan gave them all passing grades.
“Working under me, you can gradually hone your skills, and I can better understand the rules and follow my responsibilities.
If any of you feel that the rules here are too strict and you can't adapt, you can quit now.
Because from now on, my rules will be a hundred times stricter than they are now."
Everyone looked at each other, and no one left.
"Since no one has withdrawn, then go back and prepare. Come with me to the capital in a few days to learn etiquette."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief that they were not eliminated.
But I was also worried that I wouldn’t learn the rules well and would be eliminated.
Everyone held their breath, jostled and shoved, eager to leave the Ying family's small courtyard.
After these people leave.
Only Aunt Liu and the mute sister were left in the yard.
Without waiting for Aunt Liu to speak.
The mute girl walked over and gestured to Wen Yan, indicating that she wanted to dye her nails red.
A month ago, when Aunt Liu took everyone to Huaying Town, Wen Yan specifically asked her to bring her mute sister with her.
The mute girl is young and doesn't want to learn how to clean faces.
Wen Yan gave Shu Xiu a separate gift and asked her to learn the skills of painting flower ornaments and dyeing nail polish.
After a month, the mute girl felt that she had learned a lot.
The mute girl also gained some weight and her skin became whiter.
He was wearing old clothes and looked much more energetic.
In addition, her eyes are round and bright. If she changes into festive clothes, she will be as festive as a boy giving out money.
Wen Yan smiled and asked, "I was so fierce just now, aren't you afraid of me?"
The mute girl shook her head and gestured with her hands: "I didn't do anything wrong, you won't punish me."
Wen Yan smiled and rubbed her head: "You know everything."
Then, the mute girl started to dye her nails.
It takes time to dye nail polish. After unpacking the leaves the next day, Wen Yan found that the nail polish dyed by Ya Mei was very interesting.
She combined flower ornaments and nail polish, and different patterns appeared on her red nails.
However, due to his average painting skills, the patterns are still rather crude.
But this also surprised Wen Yan greatly.
If more styles can be produced, it will surely be favored by the noble ladies in the capital.
She immediately pulled the mute girl over and said to her, "Follow me and learn to paint."
The mute girl didn't understand what Wen Yan meant. She tilted her head, her bright big eyes full of confusion.
Of course, this is all in the past.
The day when the exam ends.
Rumors about Wen Yan were spreading everywhere in Songshan Village.
The woman with rough hands returned home in a daze.
Seeing that she was in a low mood, her family asked her the reason.
She cried and said she was fired just because her hands were too rough.
Her mother-in-law listened to her and shared her hatred for the enemy, criticizing Wen Yan: "She is the wife of a scholar, how can she be so petty and not generous at all!
Isn't it just a matter of a bottle of hand cream? We can just pay for it, why are you wiping us out?
Her husband said, "Who asked you to be the first to stand out? If I don't kill you, how can I calm the others down?
It's like, if you ask someone to cook a big banquet, and they cook you a vegetarian meal, can you still use the same chef?
The mother-in-law was speechless.
"Do I really have to give up this job? Should I give you some gifts and try to beg you for mercy?" The woman was still a little unwilling.
She got up early and went to bed late, studying hard for a month.
Even the boss lady said she was very talented and did a great job.
She was kicked out unwillingly.
