"He's not short of money, so of course he wouldn't look down on such a small amount. Didn't you see the watch on Painter Cao's wrist? It looks really expensive, even better than the one on Brother Yan's wrist!"
Chen Yan had already noticed the two points they mentioned.
"Let's go take a look in his yard. It's so late, could he be painting all the time?"
Li Sigou suggested, "He who doesn't want to find a wife and doesn't drink is really a weird person."
Chen Yan nodded in agreement, and the three of them walked towards where Painter Cao lived.
......
"Chen Yan's family, what are you going to compete for tomorrow?"
"Exactly, my heart is pounding so hard that I can't sleep well at night!"
"Look at you guys being so useless. It's just making clothes. We've been doing it our whole lives. What's there to be afraid of?"
"You make it sound easy, but what if your performance doesn't meet the standards and you get rejected? How embarrassing!"
"Gu Zhiqing, please tell the old ladies what exactly needs to be done so that we can be prepared when we go back tonight."
After the aunts finished registering their names, they all started asking questions.
"Okay, I'll tell you all about the specific precautions for tomorrow's game."
Gu Keqing handed the registration list to Qi Zhiyun and asked her to keep it.
Then he smiled and said, "Tomorrow I will hang two hand-painted clothing samples in the center of the small square. Aunts will be divided into two groups of five and compete at the same time.
"Everyone has to cut and sew the fabric according to the pattern within the specified time. Finally, I, my sister-in-law, Aunt Lanhua, Aunt Chen, and the team leader will give the scores. Only those with a score above 95 will be hired."
Mrs. Chen and Aunt Lanhua are not only members of the intelligence team of the Grass Flower Brigade, but are also among the top three aunts in needlework skills.
So everyone is convinced by this group of five referees.
"Well, can you show us the clothing samples in advance?"
"That's right. We're all from the same team. Just taking a look will give you a rough idea. It won't keep you awake at night."
A few aunts with average needlework skills wanted to cheat, so they pulled Qi Zhiyun's hand and stuffed money into her pocket.
"Aunts, this won't do. Take the money back!"
Qi Zhiyun had a cold face and pushed the money away. "If you continue like this, I will disqualify you from the competition and no one will be able to enter the garment workshop!"
"Hey! How can you talk like that? You Shen family members are just outsiders, and we are the elders who have lived in Caohua Brigade for generations. If you don't respect the elderly and love the young like this, I don't think this garment workshop will last long!"
"Hmph, don't think you're so great just because you can make some decisions. I don't even want to join."
After the money was stuffed back and the two aunts lost face in public, they immediately turned hostile and said unpleasant words.
Gu Keqing was watching coldly from the side. She also wanted to see how her sister-in-law would handle this matter.
After all, there are many people who cheat and act cunningly.
If the garment workshop wants to grow bigger and stronger in the future, it will not be able to do without someone who is impartial and fair in supervising it.
Qi Zhiyun raised her voice and said loudly:
"If you don't want to join, then get out of here! The workers hired by the garment workshop are not only required to have good stitching skills, but more importantly, they must have good character. I, Qi Zhiyun, am indeed an outsider, but since Captain Han has handed the matter of the review personnel to our Shen family, we cannot let everyone down!"
"I won't give anyone the opportunity to abuse their power for personal gain. This garment workshop should either not be open, or it should be open in an upright manner!"
After Qi Zhiyun's words, the aunts who were making trouble lowered their heads in shame.
