"Isn't it? They only gave me a steamed bun, and it was already stale. I think they took it out because they couldn't finish it at home."
"You don't know, my man used to carry bags at the dock in the county town. He was supposed to be paid 14 copper coins a day, but when he paid, he was only paid 12 copper coins."
"You're even worse. Some people give you 11 copper coins and then deduct money from you because you didn't do a good job. When you ask them what's wrong, they can't say it. This is mean."
"It's even worse. Didn't that guy in the village say that last time? He said he could get a meal every day, but what happened? He didn't get one. When I asked him why, he said it was up to him to do it or not. If he didn't do it, there would be plenty of people willing to do it."
"That's right. It's different for people from humble backgrounds. I've never heard of anyone being too demanding in terms of wages."
"How can my wages be deducted? In addition to paying my wages on time, I also get bonuses every month. If I do a good job, I get additional subsidies."
Another villager continued.
"......"
The villagers drank the sugary mung bean water and started talking about it.
It looks so lively...
In addition to the villagers of Zhangjia Village, many families in Jianjia Village also drink mung bean water here.
These benefits are only available to those who have a good relationship with Jian Xiu's family.
They were also very excited to see Jian Xiu here.
Zhang Xuemei, who married into Jianjia Village, was one of them.
Before Jian Xiu crossed over, her original self and Zhang Xuemei were very good friends.
But later, when Zhang Xuemei married into Jianjia Village, the two of them had less and less contact.
Because of Jian Xiu's relationship, she also worked here.
And because you do a good job, you are already in charge.
The last time we contacted each other was a few years ago when Jian Xiu returned to her parents' home.
It was then that Mr. Jian realized that Zhang Xuemei was not having a good life in her husband's family.
The reason was simple, it was because Zhang Xuemei was pregnant with nothing after getting married.
Fortunately, Jian Xiu cured her with 깊's special potion.
(These have been written in the previous article, and now I will just give a brief introduction!)
As a result, she lived a life without worries about food and clothing, and had a son and a daughter.
But every family has its own problems, and she also has an extremely snobbish mother-in-law.
As a result, she and her mother-in-law, Mrs. Li, stood in the middle of the team.
Because there were too many people, Jian Xiu didn't see her for a while.
It was not until he saw her coming forward to get the mung bean water that Jian Xiu recognized her.
She did not greet Jian Xiu, but lowered her head, as if she was afraid that Jian Xiu would recognize her.
"What? Don't you recognize me?" Jian Xiu asked first.
Just looking at Zhang Xuemei in front of her, Jian Xiu didn't know why, but she felt that she could see something called inferiority on her face.
Looking at Old Mrs. Li beside her, Jian Xiu frowned unconsciously.
If she was not mistaken just now, her mother-in-law Zhang Xuemei had been ordering her to do things.
And what about herself?
Just standing there, like an old Buddha.
Jian Xiu was not a fool. She knew how Zhang Xuemei lived at her husband's house at a glance.
Hearing this, Zhang Xuemei felt a little embarrassed.
Regardless of anything else, she never thought that Jian Xiu would still remember her.
You know, she is now the famous Princess An Ning and the brave and brave female general.
And I am just a country girl, standing in front of her, I suddenly feel inferior.
"I don't remember myself because of you." Zhang Xuemei lowered her head and said in a low voice.
"How could that be? We were able to get through before, so why can't we get through now?" Jian Xiu said with a smile.
"Besides, haven't you been working in the workshop all these days? Why didn't you work today?" Jian Xiu asked again.
When she asked this question, her eyes never left Jian Xiu.
She remembered that although Zhang Xuemei was pregnant before, she still went to work in Xiuqi Hanmen as arranged.
Why do I see her picking grapes here again?
When she gave the grape seeds to the village head, she specifically asked several families in Jianjia Village to plant them together.
In addition to the families in Jianjia Village, she also gave money to the people working in the workshop.
I just don't understand why Zhang Xuemei would appear here?
"Isn't it my turn to rest today? I have four days off every month. If I'm busy, there's no rule to rest on the same day. I'll take turns in the workshop."
Zhang Xuemei explained.
Hearing this, Jian Xiu nodded in understanding.
Come to think of it, it seems to be really the case.
She has been busy since she came back and has no time to think about other things.
She would occasionally listen to them talk about what was going on in the workshop.
Only when I saw Zhang Xuemei did I feel at ease returning to the village.
Looking at what Zhang Xuemei is wearing, she must be well-off financially.
At least it should be good in this village.
Although he was still in rough shape, he was decently dressed, and his shoes were not covered with patches like those of the other villagers.
Old Mrs. Li, who was standing by, saw her daughter-in-law talking and laughing with Jian Xiu, and her eyes suddenly lit up.
Yes, how could she forget about this?
This time, his own daughter-in-law helped Jian Xiu and the others many times? If others become prosperous, they must not forget her family.
So without thinking, Old Mrs. Li pushed Zhang Xuemei, meaning to let her go forward and talk more with Jian Xiu.
"Mom, why are you pushing me?" Zhang Xuemei couldn't help but say.
Her tone was full of dissatisfaction, which showed that she had long been dissatisfied with her mother-in-law.
She was fine just now, but suddenly she pushed herself away. It was all fake that Zhang Xuemei said she had no breath.
She knew how pretentious her mother-in-law was.
After so many years, if I hadn't found a job for myself in Xiuqi Hanmen, I don't know how much I would have to endure in front of her.
I said before that she didn't give birth to a child and she was in the wrong.
But now it's different. Not only can she earn money on her own, she also has a son and a daughter.
What's more, my mother-in-law has never treated me well at my husband's house, but my husband treats me pretty well.
This old Li had two sons. The eldest son worked as a carpenter in the county town and gave birth to two sons for the old Jian family.
Compared with my own son and daughter, the eldest wife has a lot more.
After all, she has two sons, and he only has one son.
But since I gave birth to my second child, my stomach has been quiet.
Although she was very satisfied with her life like this, her mother-in-law would cause trouble for her from time to time.
Of course, most of the time Zhang Xuemei would not tolerate her bad temper.
But today she pushed herself out like this, it was obvious that she wanted herself to climb the high branch of Jian Xiu.
