Chapter 258 You Can’t Blame Me
Everyone volunteered, hoping to work for Zhuang Qingning and earn money in the future.
Zhuang Qingning also saw many people who worked diligently and carefully, and thought they were useful.
What worries me now is finding someone to manage this bean curd skin workshop.
She has a lot of things to do and I'm afraid she can't stay in the tofu skin workshop all day.
Zhuang Yonghe has to take care of the bean curd harvest and other external affairs, Zhuang Mingliang has to take care of the tofu shop, and if he adds the yuba workshop, he will be too tired. As for He's side, there are a lot of things at home that can't be spared. Zhuang Sifu has to be a full-time deliveryman. Wen is definitely capable, but she is old after all, and Zhuang Qingning is reluctant to do such hard work...
After much thought, Zhuang Qingning still couldn't find a particularly suitable person.
All we can do is wait until the tofu skin workshop starts operating and then decide who is suitable to manage it.
Zhuang Qingning made up his mind and began to focus his energy on the matter of the herbal bag.
Someone in the village was diligent and had already dried the first batch of mugwort leaves and sent them to Zhuang Qingning's home. Zhuang Yonghe and Zhuang Jingye helped to collect the mugwort leaves, calamus and mint.
Mix the three herbs in a one-to-one ratio, add the mosquito repellent secret powder exchanged from a certain mall, mix them together, and seal them in the bag.
He came in the evening to bring the finished clothes to Zhuang Qingning.
With the cloth given by Meng and Chai Zhengzhen, Zhuang Qingning asked He to help cut two sets of clothes.
"Ning girl, have you heard about this these days?" He whispered after chatting about family matters.
"What did you hear?"
When He saw Zhuang Qingning's confused expression, she knew that she probably really didn't know, so she lowered her voice even more.
"You have been busy with the tofu skin workshop or collecting herbs these days, so I'm afraid you haven't heard about it. These past two days, Zhuang Ruman has been showing off everywhere, telling everyone he meets that he has found a very good marriage for Zhuang Qinghe. The man's family is very rich, living in a two-story courtyard, with 20 to 30 servants, and the servants can all wear satin clothes. They are extremely rich."
"She also boasted that Zhuang Qinghe was blessed with good fortune, and her horoscope was very compatible with hers, so she would be able to live a good life in the future. In the future, her family would also be able to eat and wear good clothes, and they wouldn't have to worry about anything."
"I am a little puzzled. Whose family is this? Are they blind? They look down on Zhuang Qinghe and don't even look at what kind of people Zhuang Ruman's family is. They actually want to marry into his family?"
He was angry at the behavior of Zhuang Ruman's family, especially the way they treated Zhuang Qingning in the past. She felt that this family of black-hearted people would never have a good end, but now they were living a carefree life. She felt really unhappy.
Zhuang Qingning knew that He was defending the injustice, but she chuckled: "Marriage has always been about matching the families of equal status. The two families have always been quite well-off. Even if sometimes it is said that they are bowing their heads to marry a daughter-in-law, it must at least be of the same level. Since the man's family is so wealthy, there must be many people who rush to propose marriage, but they want to marry a girl from a poor family. I always feel that this is a bit unreasonable."
"That's true." He was stunned for a moment, and twisted the hair that fell on her body. "Normally, if the husband's family gives more betrothal gifts and the wife's family prepares less dowry, they will be criticized and looked down upon by the husband's family. There is a big difference between the two families, and Zhuang Qinghe is not an outstanding person..."
Not only is she not outstanding, but she is also looked down upon by ordinary people.
In terms of appearance, temperament, and diligence, she is indeed not as good as ordinary girls.
The reason why some people came to propose marriage in the past was simply because of Zhuang Yuanren.
These days, it's rare to have an educated person in the family, especially one who seems to be quite talented like Zhuang Yuanren, who might be able to pass the imperial examination and become an official in the future. So people would rush to curry favor with him so as to make plans for the future.
It can be said that each and every one of them has his own hidden thoughts.
And such a wealthy family as Zhuang Ruman mentioned was actually willing to marry into the Zhuang Ruman family and willing to marry Zhuang Qinghe. Who knows what his intentions were.
This is karma. Could God really be so blind as to let Zhuang Ruman's family get away with it like this?
Thinking of this, He felt relieved immediately. She stopped talking about Zhuang Qinghe's marriage and only talked about other things with Zhuang Qingning, such as the mugwort and calamus used in the mosquito repellent herbal bags.
Although He's family lived a decent life, it was not too easy after all. He intended to ask her family to harvest some mugwort and calamus when they were free and supply them to Zhuang Qingning.
Zhuang Qingning naturally agreed.
In the following two days, Zhuang Qingning was very busy collecting medicinal materials and preparing herbal medicines to repel mosquitoes.
Zhuang Qingsui felt very distressed when he saw this, and just tried his best to help Zhuang Qingning with what he could, such as weighing medicinal materials.
The sun is scorching and the heat is very strong. The cicadas' high and low chirping in the trees make this summer feel even hotter.
Qingzhu Garden was very cool at this time, and there was no detectable heat at all.
One reason is that the Qingzhu Garden is surrounded by green bamboos and the sun cannot penetrate at all.
Secondly, because there is a stream flowing through the garden, the gurgling stream naturally takes away a lot of the heat.
These three...
"Mr. Fan." Chu Jinnian's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and he exuded waves of coldness all over his body, making people nearby shiver uncontrollably.
Especially the gazes that were staring at Fan Wenxuan, seemed to have become sharp blades, trying to pierce several holes in Fan Wenxuan's body.
"Master, this matter cannot be blamed on me." Fan Wenxuan rubbed his earlobe and glanced at Tian'er nonchalantly, "This is also Jinzhou's own bad luck. He is willing to accept the loss, right?"
Is this why you painted Chu Jinzhou's face like a big tabby cat?
When Chu Jinnian looked at the crooked "王" character on Chu Jinzhou's forehead, the dark circles around his eyes, and the uneven beard on his cheeks, he felt even colder.
Ning Feng was already scared to death, and asked someone to prepare warm water to wash Chu Jinzhou clean.
But the ink could not be completely washed off no matter how many times it was washed. Although you couldn't see anything from a distance, if you got closer and looked carefully, you could still see the original imprint. And because of the mottled ink, it looked uglier than when there was originally an ink stain.
"It will be gone in a few days. It's nothing to worry about. It's nothing to worry about..."
Seeing this, Fan Wenxuan hastily added a sentence, and when he noticed that Chu Jinnian's fists were clenched together, he hurriedly took two steps back, grinning in a very servile manner.
"I really didn't bully the weak. This is a fair bet. If the winning and losing are 50% each, then I can only say that Jin Zhou was just unlucky. But if you, Master, call me now, you are simply bullying me..."
