Farm widows have space, pick up a treasure on the way to escape

Chapter 112
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Liu's eyes lit up and she wanted to recruit female workers!

In this era, men are the backbone of the family, and the whole family depends on men to support them.

There were few jobs for women, especially women from peasant families.

At most, a diligent woman can help wealthy people wash their clothes, or if she is good at craftsmanship, she can embroider a few square handkerchiefs and sell them, and the money she earns is only a handful.

It is also because of this that most men have absolute say in the family, while women only have room to listen.

"Sister, how long will this job last?"

Mrs. Liu inquired with excitement on her face. She had to confirm it immediately and then seek benefits for the female relatives in her family.

Mrs. Sun smiled gently: "Our family has received a good order this time. It will take some time. When the newly built house is completed, we will fully recruit people. My sister-in-law must help me pay attention to it. Those who are accustomed to I don’t want anyone who knows how to cheat and cheat!”

"Don't worry, sister, I'll take care of this!"

Mrs. Liu smiled from ear to ear, holding Mrs. Sun's arm to accompany the old couple to survey and purchase land.

Before leaving the house, the village chief asked his eldest son to inform the villagers who had helped build the house that the work would continue tomorrow.

In addition, we need to select some more down-to-earth and capable men. If not, go to the next few villages to find them.

As a result, the news that the Lu family wanted to buy land and build a house spread instantly.

Those who had whispered that the Lu family was poor did not dare to say anything at this time, fearing that their men would not be selected because of this matter.

Some people even got some gossip from the village chief's wife. The Lu family's workshop is looking for female workers, and it's a long-term job. If they can keep working, one person can support the family's food rations.

Before the house was built, the women in the village couldn't sit still. They ran to the Lu family seven or eight times a day, hoping to meet the Lu family, and then pretend to meet by chance and exchange a few words.

The Lu family brought their clansmen here. During this time, they saw the Lu family and Cui'er and the others making clothes together, and they had long been envious. Isn't it just like sewing cotton clothes to seal the clothes? They can also!

Now that the opportunity has finally come, I naturally don't want to let it go easily. If I can be selected, my status in the family will rise!

The next day, the Lu family's garment workshop started working, and everyone was busy. A carriage hurriedly entered the village and asked about the location of the Lu family. The driver whipped his whip, and the horse kicked up its hooves and ran away. The coachman pulled the reins hastily, and might have to overrun.

"Excuse me, is this Mrs. He's house?"

The driver stopped his horse, jumped out of the car and knocked on the door.

The person who opened the door was Mrs. Sun. Seeing the person hurriedly looking for the third daughter-in-law, she immediately frowned: "Who are you?"

The coachman then remembered that he had not reported his family name, so he said: "I am from Yuyuantang. Shopkeeper Ren asked me to come and ask Mrs. He to go with him for medical treatment."

It turned out to be the case.

Mrs. Sun breathed a sigh of relief, thinking she was here to cause trouble.

She nodded and said: "This is it, please wait a moment."

With that said, she went to the house to look for He Jiuniang, only to find that He Jiuniang was sleeping again, but there were a few pieces of drawing paper on the table. It was obvious that she was too tired after half the drawing before going to bed.

Seeing this, Mrs. Sun couldn't bear to call her, but it was a rare opportunity to follow the master on a medical visit, so she still slapped her awake.

"Third daughter-in-law, someone from Yuyuantang has come, saying that your master wants to take you for a medical visit." He Jiuniang knew it when she came in. Knowing that she had something serious to do, she didn't waste any time, got up from the bed, and then He yawned lazily and asked: "Did you tell me where you are going? Is it far? If it is far, I will take the dog with me, as I promised him before."

"That's not to say, but you are going to do business, why are you taking the dog with you? Can my old lady take care of it for you?"

Mrs. Sun rolled her eyes in dissatisfaction. The dog was his grandson after all, how could he treat him badly?
"Mom, you don't know. After I was in trouble last time, my dog ​​became very attached to me. He often had nightmares when I went to sleep at night. I couldn't bear to make him sad. Besides, I asked the master before, and the master agreed that I should take the child with me. of."

He Jiuniang always speaks with half-truths and half-falsities, making it difficult for people to guess the truth.

We all slept together for a long time, and Mrs. Sun didn't hear the dog having nightmares, but she still didn't suspect it. She was just surprised that her sleep was getting better and better, and she didn't even hear any movement.

"Then you hurry up and pack up. I'll go ask first."

Mrs. Sun said and walked out. There was wind under her feet. He Jiuniang smiled. The little old lady was quite nimble.

Mrs. Sun came back soon and said she was in the county town. He Jiuniang quickly got in the car and left without taking anything with her.

Mrs. Sun took the dog to the door with a worried look on her face and watched them go away. She couldn't tell what she felt in her heart, but she was just a little worried.

He Jiuniang didn't think so much and fell asleep as soon as she got in the car. She wanted to take advantage of these few days to draw more drawings and make them in large quantities as soon as the house was built. This would also shorten the construction period and satisfy the customer, just because Well, I haven't slept since last night. I have been so busy that I was able to take a nap just now, but I was woken up.

"Ms. He, we are here."

The coachman reminded him softly from outside. He Jiuniang yawned again. She got out of the car and found that in front of her was the side door of a house. Shopkeeper Ren and another little medicine boy had been waiting for a long time.

"Ms. He...oh no, Doctor He, you are here. We are here to treat the county magistrate's young lady today, so we can't delay!"

He Jiuniang understood that this house belonged to the magistrate's family.

As she followed Shopkeeper Ren inside, Shopkeeper Ren told her about the situation of the county magistrate's young lady.

"It's said that she has a sore on her face that won't heal after long-term treatment. The lady has been living a life of death for a long time. She has come to our hospital before, but the effect is not obvious. She is temporarily better, but she will be healed in a few days. Start repeating.”

He Jiuniang nodded to express her understanding.

Shopkeeper Ren and the little medicine boy are both men and cannot go directly to the backyard, so they can only ask the county magistrate to come to the front yard for treatment.

The county magistrate's lady was sitting in the flower hall with a gauze covering her face and a look on her face, as if she had already cried.

"Shopkeeper Ren is here in person. Come and take a look at Lan'er. It's getting worse these days. I really don't know what to do."

The speaker was a woman in her 30s or [-]s. Judging from her posture, she must be the county magistrate's wife.

The county magistrate didn't have any reaction when she saw shopkeeper Ren. After all, she had known her before. But when she saw He Jiuniang, she immediately became furious when she saw that beautiful and charming face.

She yelled: "Who is she? This is the backyard of the county government office, and not just any cat or dog can come in!"

He Jiuniang didn't know where her hostility came from. She smiled lightly and asked, "Shall I go then?"

PS: Sorry for being late. Something happened tonight. My best relatives made me so angry that my hands were shaking when I was typing...
