He Tiantian was very welcoming; she had been thinking of going to see her sister-in-law about some things. However, she was afraid that if she went to Old Zhao's house and saw Old Zhao's wife, it would cause trouble.
So I've been struggling with this issue in my mind.
"Sister-in-law, you've come at the right time." He Tiantian invited Tao Shi into her room.
Zhao Fengnian was a very outgoing person. After entering the house and greeting everyone, he ran off to play with Wanzi and the others.
Tao hugged Xiaomingzhu affectionately as she sat in a chair. "I heard from Xiangbei that you were back, so I thought I'd come and see you. It's been so long."
"Hehe, I'll be coming back often in the future. I'm busy at the shop right now, and I can't leave it alone," He Tiantian said with a hint of helplessness.
Tao hesitated for a moment, then said somewhat embarrassedly, "How about I come help out at your shop? Don't worry, I won't ask for wages."
She explained, "Second sister-in-law, I know you gave Xiangbei this job because you wanted to help me. So I'll lend you a hand for free."
He Tiantian smiled and shook her head, "What are you saying, sister-in-law? My brother is an honest worker and earns his money through hard work. This is what he deserves."
Actually, Zhao Xiangbei and Zhao Dahai delivered water every morning and even helped out at the store. He Tiantian actually benefited from this.
After all, hiring another helper wouldn't be something that could be done for 300 coins per person.
"However, I have another job here, sister-in-law, would you like to consider it?" He Tiantian thought of Manager Guan's request, so she decided to focus on that job first.
Tao's eyes lit up. "What kind of work? As long as I can do it, I won't be picky."
He Tiantian then explained about the shopkeeper's job openings, "It's basically just introducing ready-made clothes and fabrics to customers who come in, and things like that. They provide lodging there, and it's 150 coins a month, which I think is pretty good..."
He Tiantian was thinking of hiring an experienced woman for Manager Guan, someone who would be steady and reliable and would require less worry.
We should hire another young and pretty girl. After all, it's a ready-made clothing store. If there are any novel styles, a young girl wearing them would be a perfect model.
"But sister-in-law, if you go to work in the city, you won't be able to take care of things at home. Da Niu and Tie Zhu are alright, but what about during a good harvest?"
Fengnian is still so young, and he has to go to school. I don't know if my sister-in-law can let him go.
Tao was only thinking about those 150 coins... Her husband earned 300 coins a month, and if she could earn 150 coins a month, the two of them could save up 450 coins a month.
In two or three months, he could save up an ounce of silver. At this rate, Tiezhu would be able to get married next year.
In order to help her second son get married, Tao Shi no longer cared about Zhao Fengnian.
She said firmly, "Second sister-in-law, I'll take on this task. To be honest, I'm thinking of arranging a marriage for Tiezhu next year... We need to save up some dowry money before people will be willing to marry their daughters to us, right?"
He Tiantian nodded in agreement.
She suddenly thought of Wang Dazhuang's matter, wondering if he had saved up the ten taels of silver for the bride price.
