These words clearly protected Qiao Sangyu.
Everyone was immediately surprised and looked at each other. Of course, it was impossible for them to just leave like that.
Tang Shiyue glanced at everyone and saw that no one left, so she continued, "It seems that everyone is not stupid. They all see clearly that what she said just now was all slander."
"I have sent people to investigate this matter. At that time, Madam Qiao ran a large embroidery workshop with a fortune of 1,800 taels, while the Zhang family was poor and had no place to live. Madam Qiao was attracted by the fact that he was a scholar, and she asked for his hand in marriage several times sincerely, so she married him. But she didn't expect that 'most loyal people are butchers, and most unfaithful people are scholars'. Zhang Zhimo was able to continue his studies with his wife's dowry, and he used his wife's dowry to save his seriously ill mother. However, he was not only ungrateful, but also felt ashamed. After he passed the examination to become a student, he began to flirt with other women. After hooking up with a rich lady, he lost all conscience and set up a trap to frame his first wife..."
"Poor Madam Qiao met the wrong person. In the end, her dowry was cheated, she was kicked out of the house with a stigma, and even her child was labeled a bastard... She suffered such a great humiliation, and she didn't want to take in her enemies. Is that wrong? The Zhang family is ungrateful and shameless. I don't want Yuefang to have such people. Are you willing to associate with such people?"
Qi Xiaolang had already checked for her and found out that Zhang Zhimo was a heartless man who lived off his wife and children. Everything Qiao Sangyu said was true.
There is a type of person who is so disgusting, they spare no effort to spread their peacock tails and lick the boots in order to have a gigolo, but at the same time they feel unhappy and hate the person they are clinging to, they regard every minute as a sleeping straw and eating daring food to keep a low profile, they will retaliate crazily when they get a chance, and still think they are noble and have integrity.
There is no limit to how stupid you are.
She was shocked at the time, and today, she decided to take this opportunity to put the matter to rest.
Everyone was also very shocked. A woman from Dayue Village said, "So it's true! I told you that the Zhang family is worthless!"
...
...
"That's right! As soon as Zhang Zhimo drove Madam Qiao away, he built a new house and married a new wife. Where did they get the money? We are not fools!"
"The Zhang family is greedy for money, none of them are good people. They just talked a little and put the blame on someone else. They have no conscience at all!"
Everyone talked about it for a while before continuing to register.
Qi Jing, Rao Xiu and others were standing under a tree not far away, looking at this side from afar.
They are not like these village women who can only see Tang Shiyue's protection of Qiao Sangyu. Most of them can see Tang Shiyue's scheming and tactics.
Liang Da Huzi said with a tut-tut sound: "Ayue is really impressive!"
Rao Xiu said coldly: "This young lady is quite clever."
Another person said: "It's not just cleverness, it's almost like a demon."
Yes, she is a little goblin.
Qi Jing stood straight, with his hands behind his back, looking at her without blinking, his eyes burning with flames and full of eagerness.
These sentences may seem ordinary, but the grasp of rhythm is really wonderful.
When she stood up Qiao Sangyu, there were already many people watching her, some with jealousy and some with envy.
Today, she took advantage of this incident to create momentum for Qiao Sangyu. On the one hand, it showed her importance, and on the other hand, it also brought Qiao Sangyu's affairs to the surface.
He had long discovered that Tang Shiyue was more rational than emotional when doing things, and she never seemed to easily believe in "human hearts."
She didn't explain anything in her first sentence, and just said if you don't like it, just leave... but no one left. After that, whatever she said, people would agree with her, even if they didn't believe it or not, and even if it was wrong, it was right.
Now that these people have expressed their attitudes in public, it will be difficult for them to change their minds. No matter what the reason, they will stick to this point of view.
The first group of people who came here, in a sense, were also the upper class families in each village, either rich or noble. Moreover, they would later become dependent on Yuefang and naturally would curry favor with Tang Shiyue.
Then the Zhang family would have a hard time.
Really, he is too cunning and too protective of his food.
It's so cunning that it makes people want to peel off the clothes and see if there is really a goblin hidden inside.
If Tang Shiyue were here, she would add one more thing.
She not only supported Qiao Sangyu, but also wanted to quickly rally people's hearts.
Didn’t someone say that in adolescence, women’s friendship starts with going to the toilet together, and in maturity, women’s friendship starts with scolding men together?
Sharing a common hatred for the enemy and scolding the unfaithful people together can help this group of women quickly get through the adjustment period and enter a state of tacit cooperation.
Of course, if Qiao Sangyu still has feelings for that person, this method would be like exposing someone's scars and would not be applicable.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, Qi Jing calmed himself down and turned his head to look over.
Then Xu Wenqu and four other people came slowly over and asked him with a smile, "Is everything going well?"
Qi Jing said: "With A Yue here, everything will go smoothly."
Xu Wenqu nodded with a smile, but out of the corner of his eye he noticed a figure quickly move away, and the figure turned back as he walked, with a very complicated look in his eyes.
It was a rare moment of distraction for him.
He noticed that Qi Jing's men all avoided Qi Yang, but later on, after they discovered that Qi Yang had a "keep his eyes straight" personality, they generally just avoided him from the front and didn't stand with Tang Shiyue.
But this old soldier with a wound on his shoulder, named Rao Xiu, was arrogant and rude, but every time he saw Qi Yang, he gave people a feeling of fleeing in panic.
And the look in his eyes was so strange, as if he was extremely afraid, and also extremely disgusted...
Xu Wenqu thought to himself that he should tell Tang Shiyue about it later.
Before he could finish his thought, one of Qi Jing's subordinates came over and said, "Mr. Xu, A Yue just recited a poem. Can you help me understand what it means?"
Xu asked with great interest: "Poetry?"
"Yes," the man said with a wicked smile, "'Most loyal people are butchers, and most unfaithful people are scholars.'"
Xu Wenqu: "..."
…………
All the people who came have been registered. Those who live far away have to be arranged in "dormitories" and have to make entry and exit badges. After that, they have to continue washing, drying, loosening and twisting the wool. There are more than a hundred people, and each person can twist several kilograms of wool a day. Every day, special people deliver the wool to the dyeing workshop in the town.
I have to say that the clan leaders and headmen of these villages are all quite reliable. The people sent here may have connections, but it is not excessive.
Apart from Zhang Xiaoman, there was only one person from Dongshan Village whose hands were too clumsy to rub the dough, so he was replaced by Tang Shiyue. The others were just lazy and picked up some tasks, but the work they did was impeccable.
Since we are just starting out and don’t have much wool, Tang Shiyue doesn’t plan to make sweaters and sweater robes.
For now, she only plans to make four items: hats, socks, collars and gloves. Once there is more wool, the market opens up, and everyone becomes more skilled, she will start making clothes.
In fact, socks are the easiest to knit and have the best prospects.
Tang Shiyue really couldn't stand the inelastic cloth covers of this dynasty.
It’s okay now, but when the weather gets cold, woolen socks are a must!
She is targeting the mid- to high-end market and will never follow the path of a peddler. She plans to start with three sets of products.
One is a "double warm" set of two pairs of socks.
Then there is the "three-in-one" set of hat, gloves and neck cover.
The third type is the “Four Joys” set of hat, neck cover, gloves and socks.
She was very concerned about this and tried it several times before deciding on the design.
For example, nowadays both men and women have buns, so the hat style cannot be copied from the original one.
For men's hats, she left a round hole for a drawstring on the top, so that the hair bun can be exposed. The drawstring is similar to a scarf, which can be tied into a bow or hung down behind the hat with some small decorations, such as beads or jade.
Xu Wenqu named her Zhanhongmao, which means great ambitions.
"Zhan" means to exhibit and "Hong" means wild goose. The bun with a hairpin inserted in it that shows through the hat hole really looks a bit like a bird. Tang Shiyue thinks that although this name is a bit literary, it is still very appropriate.
Women can't wear hats with hairpins, step-shaking ornaments, or various buns, so she made a hat band, similar to the ancient headband, to protect the forehead and ears. When the hat band became popular, women naturally came up with suitable hair accessories to match it. She never underestimated women's wisdom in this regard.
It is called a brocade hat, which means the icing on the cake.
The neck cover is easier to explain. The men's version is an ordinary neck cover that focuses on keeping warm, while the women's version can be made with tassels.
In short, you don’t need too many styles in the early stage, try to achieve the effect of “you can tell it is Yuefang’s product at a glance”, and then consider more styles in the later stage.
It was rare for her to be so devoted to doing something, so she took the time to teach Zhou Niangzi, Ye Pozi and Qiao Sangyu first, and whenever she had nothing to do, she would pull Qi Xiaolang over to discuss things with him.
Qi Xiaolang reminded her: "With so many people involved, it's hard to keep the craft secret. Once it becomes popular, I'm afraid someone will fight for it, so the source of wool must be controlled."
