Yes, why is it that a beast who has done so many evil things is not condemned by thousands of people, while my daughter is scolded by everyone?
But they have no other options. If something like this happens in their family, they can't hold their heads up high in the village. The marriages and funerals of other children will basically be implicated.
As elders, they can't cut off the lives of other young people just for one person.
The palms and backs of your hands are all made of flesh, and you will feel pain if you give up any of them. But when the pain comes, the backs of your hands always bear it first!
Qiao Xin knew that the villagers were powerless given the general environment. Sometimes we really can't just blame them! Just having this awareness is enough!
"The porcelain kiln in Changping Town was planning to recruit a group of female workers. I plan to gather these children together and arrange them there, so that they can take a break and learn a skill to support themselves!"
"Madam, our kiln factory has never allowed women to participate!"
Qiao Xin was not used to their thinking: "I founded this kiln factory. If women are not allowed to participate, can it be understood that it should not continue?
Besides, you guys make your pottery and I run my porcelain factory, there is no conflict between the two!"
"Porcelain Factory, isn't it called Pottery Factory?"
"It's mainly porcelain. There are so many processes here, and many of them are delicate work. It's just right for women to do it!"
Qiao Xin is not fooling anyone.
In the process of making porcelain, men may be more suitable for tasks that require great physical strength, such as throwing, kneading clay, and firing kilns. However, women are more suitable for tasks that require endurance, such as carving, glazing, and painting.
"But they can't do that!"
"I will hire someone to teach them. Teach them a craft and teach them how to read!"
Patriarch Song was stunned!
A skill that can be taught directly until you learn it? There is such a good thing, it is not just to make people happy,
Who would not keep a cooking skill to themselves and wish to pass it down from generation to generation? How could they easily pass it on to outsiders?
"Madam, are you serious?"
Master Wu was also very surprised. This was truly a pleasant surprise!
Qiao Xin had no need to deceive them. As far as he knew, this was not the first time Qiao Xin had passed on the secret recipe to the servants working in the Qiao family.
Now, for these girls, the old lady has made a great sacrifice. If this news gets out, there will be too many people applying for jobs at the porcelain kiln factory!
"I'm afraid that's inappropriate!"
"There's nothing wrong with it. I had this idea from the beginning. Women can hold up half the sky. They can do some things that men can do, but no one gives them the opportunity! Xiao Wu, I'll leave this to you. You must make my intentions clear to everyone.
The girls won't go back for now. Let's take them over to talk to their families, and then follow us to Songjia Village!
I'd like you to ask a few strict-mouthed grandmothers in Songjia Village to help look after them, and find a doctor to check their injuries. Do you think this arrangement is okay?"
Qiao Xin explained the next arrangements clearly to Master Wu.
Songjia Village is Wu's territory, so it's most appropriate to entrust him with this matter!
Having come this far, what else can't be accomplished?
Master Wu translated Qiao Xin's meaning into plain language, and then explained it to everyone.
Emphasis is placed on the benevolence and righteousness of his master and old lady.
If you don't believe me, you can go and ask around. When this kind of thing happened in the past, how did your predecessors and predecessors handle it?
Could he be like his master, who not only tracked down the murderer, but also arranged the aftermath, and even found a way for them to make money?
Even the great uncle in Songjia Village who is over 70 years old said he had never seen such a thing before!
Patriarch Song was the first to respond positively, and even his granddaughter's heart was not so impatient!
"What are you waiting for? Go back and prepare quickly. Don't delay the adults!"
Master Song nodded in agreement and watched the group walk away in a hurry.
........
Qiao Xin and her son were busy with Yuncheng affairs, but they were unaware that the memorials and private letters sent to His Majesty had caused an uproar in Kyoto!
During the morning court session that day, Emperor Wu threw the memorial sent from Yuncheng at Minister Chen's face. After reading the contents of the memorial, Minister Chen's face turned pale and he fainted in the hall!
By now, all the civil and military officials in the court knew that the grandson of the Minister of Rites was actually a hypocrite who was lustful by nature and two-faced!
He returned to his hometown to study under the pretext of taking the imperial examination, but he not only tortured and killed more than a dozen girls in the local area, but was also caught by Qiao Yunqing, the governor of Yuncheng, who was on a tour.
He had seen the grandson of Minister Chen several times in Concubine Chen's palace. He looked handsome and as smooth as jade, but he didn't expect that he was actually a demon in human skin.
Fortunately, her aunt, Concubine Chen, mentioned him many times in front of her, trying to make him leave a good impression on her, so that she might be able to get a good ranking in the palace examination!
It's normal for Concubine Chen to have such thoughts, but is it true that she has no idea what kind of person her own nephew is?
Emperor Wu read the secret report sent by the secret agent in Yuncheng, and the content was exactly the same as what Qiao Xin and her son said.
However, Qiao Yunqing's words were more official, while Qiao Xin's letter to him was more like a complaint between acquaintances. It went into great detail, and could be considered as directly telling him their next move.
The information from the second spy confirmed that what Qiao Xin said was true.
Chen Yan's crime is unforgivable!
He gave Qiao Yunqing the order to conduct a thorough investigation without hesitation. Then he saw Cao Banban walking in along the wall!
"Your Majesty, Concubine Chen has been standing outside for half an hour."
"The harem is not allowed to interfere in government affairs. Let her go back and reflect on her mistakes for a month!" Emperor Wu said without even looking up.
Eunuch Cao didn't dare to say more, and went out to persuade the concubine.
"Your Majesty cannot be so heartless. Eunuch, please let me know and tell me that I have something important to report!"
"Your Highness, you should go back and wait for the news. For your sake, His Majesty has sent people from the three ministries to verify the truth of the news. His Majesty asked you to reflect for a month, also for your and the third princess' sake!"
Chen Fei's body went limp and she fell to the ground. It was over, all over!
If Your Majesty does not send the officials of the Three Departments to take action, they still have room to maneuver and can even sue the Qiao family for false accusation.
Once the people from the Three Departments go there, they will not rest until they get to the bottom of the matter!
This time the Chen family is going to sacrifice the car to save the driver!
While Chen Fei was calming herself down and thinking about how to deal with the situation, she hated the Qiao family in her heart!
Qiao Xin didn't care about the reaction of the people in the capital. They were busy. Even if they knew, they wouldn't care. It's just a concubine. What else can it be? In Emperor Wu's palace, except for the queen, all four concubines were present. Only Concubine Chen didn't give birth to a prince.
