Chapter 427 The Qin Sisters’ Abilities
Su Nuan didn't know whether these four people came to cause trouble or to ask questions, so she didn't say anything.
The four girls in front poked each other, seemingly afraid to be the first to speak.
Finally, Su Nuan couldn't bear it any longer and asked, "What do you want to talk to me about?"
The oldest woman was pushed out by the three women, and she had no choice but to salute.
Seeing that she was polite, Su Nuan also returned the greeting. She had received formal etiquette education and could not ignore other people's respect for her just because the environment changed.
The woman saw Su Nuan's elegant return gift, and admiration flashed in her eyes. She said softly, "Madam Su is very elegant."
Su Nuan actually didn't like being bound by etiquette, but she had to be polite at the moment. She smiled slightly and asked, "What can I do for you, Miss Ji?"
The woman was a little embarrassed. "My name is Qin Liu, I'm 23 years old. I divorced before coming to the North. Before my divorce, I used to run a cloth shop and make some ready-made clothes. I beg Madam Su to grant me a job."
Then she introduced the other three people.
"This is Qin Ba, twenty years old, unmarried, and skilled in rouge and powder."
"This is Qin Jiu, twenty years old, unmarried, and skilled in embroidery and mending."
"This is Qin Shiyi, seventeen years old, never engaged, and good at..."
She paused, an awkward look on her face, and said in a low voice, "She can raise pigs..."
Su Nuan widened her eyes in surprise and looked at Qin Shiyi carefully. Such a delicate little girl actually knew how to raise pigs. What a talent.
Qin Shiyi's face flushed, and he asked awkwardly, "Am I useless? I... I can do other things. I... I'm strong."
Su Nuan shook her head repeatedly. "No, no, I think it's very useful. We raised a few wild boars. I don't have much experience raising pigs. I only know how to feed them, and I don't know anything else."
"If you can raise pigs, I will build a pig farm and you will be in charge of it from now on."
Qin Shiyi's eyes lit up, "Really? I thought I was useless."
Su Nuan laughed, "How can it be useless? Isn't it said that there are top talents in every field? I'm very optimistic about you."
Qin Shiyi blushed again.
At this time, two more men walked in from outside the door, and the four women greeted them in unison, "Fourth Brother, Fifth Brother."
The two men nodded.
The older Qin Si bowed to Su Nuan and said, "Greetings, Madam Su."
Qin Wu said politely, "Madam Su, I am honored to meet you."
Hearing such a greeting, Su Nuan was stunned for a moment, feeling a little sour.
Su Nuan replied indifferently, "What do you want?"
Qin Si said: "My eleventh sister doesn't know much, I can take her to do some work, as long as she can earn a living."
Su Nuan's favorability towards Qin Wu increased a little. A man who knows how to take care of his sister is a good brother.
Qin Wu was a little dissatisfied. "She only knows how to raise pigs, and she eats as much as pigs. If you take her with you, you will both starve to death."
Su Nuan pursed her lips. She was clearly a scholar, so how could she say such vulgar words?
Qin Wu continued, "I can recite poems and write couplets. I'm well-educated and could even take the imperial examination. I wonder what kind of work Madam Su can arrange for me?"
Su Nuan's attitude was still indifferent, but now it was even colder. "What's the point of reciting poems and writing couplets? You can't even carry anything on your shoulders or hands. You're just a waste."
"Qin Shiyi is good at raising pigs. She's also very strong. She's a top talent. I value her abilities even more."
Qin Wu's face felt hot, as if he had been slapped countless times.
He said angrily, "I told you I'm the top scholar, how dare you ignore me?"
Su Nuan sneered, "You're still the top scholar? Don't you think about what kind of place this is? What do you, a poor scholar, need to do?"
"Oh, by the way, you can go and sweep the toilet. The smell of the toilet can cover up the sour smell on your body."
Qin Wu angrily threw his sleeves and left.
Qin Si was a little embarrassed. "I'm sorry, I know this place doesn't need scholars the most, but he's really good at studying, so he could stay and open a school."
Su Nuan said, "Let's temper him for a while and let him see the reality first."
Qin Si nodded, "Then what about my eleventh sister..."
He was not sure whether what Su Nuan said just now was true or just to irritate Qin Wu.
Su Nuan smiled and said, "Actually, you don't have to worry. As long as you have a special skill, you can find suitable work. Once the government has arranged these people, they will issue a notice. Then you can look at the notice to see what jobs are being recruited and sign up for the ones that suit you."
"Don't worry if there's nothing suitable. It's probably because the corresponding houses and environment haven't been built yet."
"That's right, there are no useless skills in this world. Even cursing and beating people are skills."
The brothers and sisters stared with their eyes wide in shock. Is this considered a skill? What's the point?
Su Nuan said helplessly: "Scolding people is also a skill, because there are some people I can't scold, and if you can help me scold back and make me happy, I will be happy to pay you."
Qin Si pursed his lips and smiled, then asked an important question, "Then may I ask if Madam Su has endless money?"
Su Nuan knew what he was thinking, because the person who made the money was Ling Cang, they would think that the people in the Ling family had endless money without having to work hard.
If you answer yes, they won't say anything, but a seed of imbalance will grow in your heart, which will sprout and grow in the future.
She immediately complained, "No, I have to earn money if I want to spend it. Not only me, but even my mother-in-law and my mother-in-law's mother-in-law have to earn money on their own."
Qin Si's eyes lit up, and he seemed to feel balanced.
Su Nuan continued, "You guys go back first and settle down first. There's a long way to go before we rush."
The Qin family immediately bowed and left.
The Space Spirit said, "It seems that he is a diligent person and has accepted the Northland's readiness to settle down."
Su Nuan nodded, "Well, many houses haven't been built yet, there's not much work, and many people are idle."
The Space Spirit said, "Let them move bricks. Anyone can do that kind of work."
Su Nuan nodded, "Yes, anyone can do it, but those who are too proud can't do it."
"In fact, the drought is already showing signs. There hasn't been a drop of water since the last rain. I don't even know if the spare parts for the water truck are ready yet."
The space spirit said, "It's done, but the pipeline still needs bamboo. I guess it can last a year."
Su Nuan nodded, "I understand. I'll go find Zhuzi when Hailan comes back."
The space spirit asked, "Do you know where the locusts are coming from?"
Su Nuan thought about it carefully and said, "I didn't see it with my own eyes, but I heard they flew from the south. They ate up all the mountains we passed by on our way to the north."
The space spirit grinned, "That's great."
Su Nuan asked bewilderedly, "Having locusts is good? What do you think?"
