Having successfully landed the job, Yu Jianchen felt a long-lost joy. On her way home, she even bought some meat by the roadside. When she returned home in high spirits, she saw her mother-in-law sitting in the yard talking to someone.
Yu Jianchen's smile vanished instantly, and he shrank back.
She nodded hurriedly to her mother-in-law, quickened her pace to the kitchen, put the meat in a bowl, and planned to stir-fry it later that evening.
"What did you do so early this morning? You seem so happy, did you meet some random guy?"
My mother-in-law's voice came from behind me.
Yu Jianchen was startled. He turned around and saw his mother-in-law leaning against the door, staring at him coldly, like a snake in the grass, ready to pounce and bite at any moment.
She quickly shook her head: "Mom, I didn't......"
What I'm about to say is a bit difficult to say.
Yu Jianchen lowered his head: "I went to the Dongxing factory for a trial period today. They said I should work there for a month and see how it goes..."
Hu Guichen raised an eyebrow, her tone sarcastic: "Trial work? You're asking me to work for free? You're not allowed to go. If you go, who will do the housework? Your husband won't even have a hot meal when he comes home from get off work. What kind of wife are you?!"
Yu Jianchen quickly waved his hand: "No, no, Mom, the trial period pay is also twenty yuan. Once I become a full-time employee, I can earn twenty-five yuan like the other full-time employees."
After saying this, Yu Jian swallowed hard. She had lied.
Lin Xiu said the trial worker's salary was twenty-five yuan, but she was lying.
She wanted to keep the five yuan.
Otherwise, once it's in the mother-in-law's hands, it will be difficult to get it back.
"Twenty yuan?"
Hu Guichen had no doubt that her daughter-in-law was lying; she was certain that the other woman wouldn't dare to lie to her.
talk.
But she never imagined that even a blade of grass that has been exploited can grow back strong and resilient when it encounters sweet rain. "That's alright, just come home early from work every day, so your man doesn't have to wait for dinner."
At this point, Hu Guichen glanced at the ticket behind her and said, "Don't always buy meat, do you think we..."
"What kind of family is this? Your man doesn't earn money easily, don't you know how to think more about him?" Yu Jianshen nodded honestly, without any resistance.
Hu Guichen said enough, then stepped off on the insole and left, leaving behind the words, "I want to eat braised pork tonight."
The rustling sound of footsteps faded into the distance.
Yu Jianchen let out a long breath; her palms were soaked with sweat from lying to her mother-in-law.
But she was very happy, feeling quite pleased with herself.
Shen Qianqian was unaware of what was going on behind the scenes at the factory. After driving the two men away, she went straight to the Zhou family.
Zhou Cai has twin sons. They are tall and strong, but they are only in junior high school. They stay home on weekends.
The eldest son, Zhou Ping, is honest and simple. I heard that his grades are average. Before Zhou Cai went to the factory, he often followed his father around the streets and alleys making clothes, which was somewhat like a son following in his father's footsteps.
The second son is more clever and has good grades. He is ambitious and now doesn't even want to study anymore, so he goes to work in a factory.
When Zhou Cai talked about this, he was quite annoyed. Even though he hadn't studied properly, he knew the importance of reading.
To put it simply, this kid needs a good spanking. There's nothing a good spanking can't fix.
If a child is naughty and not taught properly, there are only two possibilities: either they will remain mischievous for life, or they will suffer a major setback and become sensible.
"Sister Qianqian! You're here!"
As soon as Zhou An heard the bicycle bell, he dropped his homework and ran out, grinning from ear to ear. Anyone who didn't know better would think he had seen a gold ingot.
Is your dad home?
"Yes, my dad is in the small house. He hasn't come out all day. He was all smiles yesterday, saying..."
"It's done! It's done!" I looked around curiously and saw that the little bag I'd been working on for a month or so was finally finished. Zhou An diligently carried Shen Qianqian's car into the yard, and then, with his free hand, gestured with the shape of a bag.
The child gestured: "It's so small, I wonder what it can hold."
Shen Qianqian was walking towards Zhou Cai's workplace when she heard Zhou An's words and gave a light snort.
"The small bag you mentioned is a new product from our factory. The price of just this one small bag is equivalent to the price of ten schoolbags. The art of business is beyond your reach right now. You should focus on your studies. When you get into university, leave Nanxian County, and see the wider world, you won't care about a small factory anymore."
Zhou Cai blushed at what she said and was about to retort when he saw Shen Qianqian quickly leave, her figure disappearing into the doorway.
Shen Qianqian had no interest in chatting with the little brat; she just wanted to see the new products Zhou Cai had made.
Shen Qianqian walked in familiarly and found that in addition to Zhou Cai, there was also an old lady with white hair in the small house.
The old lady was wearing a plain long-sleeved coat, and her silver hair was neatly combed, making her look like a person who paid attention to detail.
Chen Qianqian's hurried steps slowed down.
Zhou Cai had previously told her that in order to create a qualified new design, it was necessary to hire a professional embroiderer to embroider patterns onto the fabric.
Shen Qianqian simply let him go and find someone with real skills.
After all, technology isn't advanced enough right now, and machine embroidery is still a distant prospect. Well, we can't think of it that way. She's determined to make real luxury goods. This embroidery has to be done by hand. Hand embroidery is expensive, but it's real!
It's about inheritance!
Assembly lines don't exist for her.
The old lady in front of me clearly has a deep understanding of embroidery!
She approached with a bright smile. "Uncle Zhou, how is it?"
Zhou Cai was discussing something with someone when he heard the voice, looked up, and saw who it was. He quickly waved. "I was just about to go to the school to find you, and here you are! Come and see, the three you picked are already..."
It's done.
As Shen Qianqian listened to Zhou Cai's words, she picked up the small bag on the table to look at it. The dark blue fabric was shimmering and colorful. Zhou Cai had almost emptied his pockets for this piece of fabric. A slightly blooming white plum blossom was embroidered on the fabric. Shen Qianqian couldn't tell what the embroidery technique was, but that didn't stop her from thinking it was beautiful.
This handbag is rectangular, slightly larger than the palm of your hand, and features a smooth, wood-carved bamboo-shaped handle.
handle.
It's beautiful.
It's like a work of art.
It doesn't seem like something that would exist at this time.
Shen Qianqian couldn't wait to pick up the next one, looked at it again and again, and nodded repeatedly.
"Uncle Zhou, thank you for your hard work these past few days. You've done a great job, and I'm confident that these three bags will live up to our expectations!"
Zhou Cai waved his hand: "I don't know as much as you young people, and this is the only area I can be proud of."
hand. 》
"And this is also thanks to Master Zhang Nanyin. Master Zhang's skills are truly excellent. She used to be an embroiderer for a landlord's family, embroidering heavy garments for the landlord's wife. Later, during the great chaos, she dared not use her skills anymore."
"Come on, I finally managed to get her to come out of seclusion this time, Qianqian, you really have to thank her properly."
Master Zhang smiled faintly: "I also want to thank you. If it weren't for you giving me a job, I'm afraid I wouldn't even be able to afford firewood this winter."
After saying that, he stood up and bowed to Chen Qianqian and Zhou Cai. This is outrageous!
How could Shen Qianqian allow an old man to bow to her?
With quick reflexes, he lifted the person up in one swift motion.
