Strong wife likes farming

Chapter 453

Several people sat at the table, and Haozi brought tea over with great eyesight.

Master Huo said with a smile: "All of us came here under Master's order. The old man even said that he wanted me to apologize to you for him. Last time he agreed to inform Senior Brother Cui for you, but the old man took I forgot about this, and I hope you don’t blame me.”

When Master Xu introduced Yun Shu to Yanxia Town to find Master Guo, he did say that he would notify his other apprentice, but he didn't specify who it was, and Yun Shu didn't ask in detail.

Later, when he met Master Cui, he looked dazed, and Yun Shu guessed that Master Xu must have become more forgetful as he got older, so he forgot about it.

But it doesn't matter, she has successfully invited Master Guo, and may also invite Master Cui!
Yun Shu said several times to be polite, and then asked Master Huo where they were working before, and if it was convenient to come to her suddenly.

Master Huo said: "What's so inconvenient? We don't have the skills like Brother Guo, and we don't have the good luck like Brother Cui. We can only do crafts in a few little-known places. Like this Junior Brother Liu and Junior Brother Zhang were just making some small jewelry to sell on the street, and we had nowhere to go. Later, I heard Master said that you need people here, and it happened that Junior Brother Guo was there, so we just thought about it. Come and try your luck."

"Then why don't you just say that you are Master Xu's apprentice? Why do you pretend you don't know each other?" Mo Hanrui couldn't help asking.

Yun Shu coughed quickly. Didn't this big cousin see such an obvious truth?This is too simple!
Master Huo scratched his head, and smiled embarrassingly: "Actually, we are a little guilty. Our craftsmanship is not very good. It is incomparable to Brother Guo and Brother Cui. I am afraid that telling the name of Master will embarrass him. I'm also afraid that you will lose face because we are master's apprentices, so..."

Mo Hanrui smiled, and finally understood why Yun Shu coughed suddenly.

But she quickly said: "Masters, don't underestimate yourself. I think the jewelry you make is very good! And the technique is very skilled and the technique is very exquisite. How could we not keep you with such a good craftsmanship? Even if you If you are not Master Xu's apprentice, we will definitely keep you all!"

What Mo Hanrui said was quite right, and Yun Shu also nodded in agreement: "Masters, it's not me, Yun Shu, who compliments you. Your skills are really good, but you have such skills but no good jewelry shop accepts you. It’s their loss. But it’s just right, they don’t accept you, so I have the chance to keep you here! Don’t worry, my wages here are definitely the highest. Not only basic wages, but also commissions and bonuses. will disappoint you."

Master Huo and the others repeatedly declined, and Yun Shu didn't give them a chance to say goodbye, so he quickly asked Haozi to take them to the wing in the backyard.

There is a small courtyard there, which used to be a wing room for the distinguished guests, but now it has been converted into a studio by Yun Shu. Master Guo has the weirdest temper, so let him be alone on the second floor, and Master Huo and others work on the first floor. In the room, the next few small rooms are their residences.

After several people left, Mo Hanrui couldn't help laughing and said: "It's great! We have such good luck, not only invited Master Guo, but also invited several skilled masters! Shu'er, our Jintai Building will definitely be a hit, right?"

"Business is booming, that's for sure, but do you really think that Master Huo and the others came to us because no one took them in?" Yun Shu poured a cup of tea, drank it leisurely, and had Master Huo and the others were sitting in the store, and the big rock in her heart fell to the ground.

"Ah? Isn't it? Didn't they say that no one asked them to do things because of their poor skills? Are they lying to us?"

Yun Shu was about to be defeated by Mo Hanrui's simple nature that believed in everything. Such a girl was able to reject the Yang family's marriage so happily back then. She even doubted that Mo Hanrui's IQ was at that time Used up.

"I said big cousin, there are some things you can't just look at the surface and listen to the surface. What do you think of the craftsmanship of these masters?"

Mo Hanrui brought over the hairpins made by Master Huo and the four, looked at them one by one and said, "Of course these people's craftsmanship is excellent, especially this Master Huo and Master Shi. Their craftsmanship is better than that of Master Liu. It’s better to be with Master Zhang.”

Yun Shu nodded, took the hairpins of Master Liu and Master Zhang, and took off the hairpin on his own head. Putting the three hairpins together, he said, "My hairpin was when we were in the capital. I bought it online. Didn’t Master Huo say that Master Liu and Master Zhang did not work in any big jewelry store but set up a roadside stall? Do you think their craftsmanship is as good as the one I bought at a roadside stall in Beijing? Who's better than that?"

"Is this still a comparison? Of course, Master Liu and Master Zhang have better craftsmanship..."

Mo Hanrui paused, and grabbed Yun Shu's hand: "You mean, they're all lying to us? Didn't they come to us because they had nowhere to go, and they came here for us?"

Yun Shu broke away from her gripping her hand because of shock, and said with a speechless smile: "To be precise, it's not for us, but for Master Guo."

There was no one else in the hall at this time, but Yun Shu deliberately lowered his voice and said, "I guess Master Xu was worried about Master Guo, so he specially told a few apprentices to come over and help us take care of it. After all, Master Guo's temperament has offended many people. If he offends us again, he probably will never have a chance to stand up again. Or, Master Cui also wanted to come with him at the beginning. It's just that his family has a great career , I'm afraid I can't give up so soon, if I guess well, Master Cui will bring the whole family to our Jintai Building after the next year."

Now Mo Hanrui was even more shocked: "For Master Guo alone, so many apprentices were sent to us. Master Xu also favors Master Guo too much, right?"

"It's not so much that Master Xu prefers Master Guo, it's better to say that everyone prefers him."

Yun Shu looked in the direction of the backyard thoughtfully, and said, "In order for this youngest apprentice to quickly gain a foothold with us, Master Xu and these senior brothers really worked hard, even before I Even if you can give up your vision, this kind of friendship between teachers and brothers is not comparable to that of ordinary people."

Yun Shu was overwhelmed by their love for each other, and also admired their brotherhood, which was better than brothers.

"So, Sister Rui, tell Sister Ruoling and the others that you must not neglect these masters, you must respect and respect them, and treat them as you treat Master Guo, remember?"

Mo Hanrui nodded repeatedly. It was her wish for these masters to condescend to their little Jintailou, and of course she would treat them with the best courtesy.

Everything that needs to be arranged has been arranged, so Yun Shu is going to go to Yi Jiangnan to ask how the matter of Yanxia Lou fish balls is handled.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he left the door of Jintai Tower, he was stopped by two little girls.

The two little girls had obviously been waiting for a long time, their little faces were flushed from the cold, and they were almost unable to stand up when they stomped their feet.

Yun Shu still had some impressions of them. These two were the ones who participated in the interview just now but were rejected.

Waiting at the door now, needless to say, Yun Shu could guess what was going on with them.

One of the fat-faced little girls spoke first: "Master, my name is Si Nier, and her name is Jin Baoer. The two of us participated in the interview just now. However, none of us passed. We would like to ask Master, can you please?" Forgive me, let us stay, it doesn't matter if you don't sell jewelry, even if it's serving tea, sweeping the floor and cooking, we are willing. Boss, please, give us a chance!"

Si Nier begged repeatedly, Jin Baoer's face turned redder, she didn't know whether it was from the cold or from shame, she tightly grasped Si Nier's arm and lowered her head without speaking.

Yun Shu's impression of Sinier is pretty good. Her mouth is quite sweet, but there is a natural birthmark on her cheek, which can be seen even if her hair is in the way. This appearance is easy to impress customers. cause a visual impact.

She doesn't judge people by appearance, nor does she look down on Sinier, but she feels uncomfortable when she hires Sinier instead of so many more beautiful girls with sweeter mouths.

As for that Jin Bao'er, she looks pretty good, but she's a little too quiet, doesn't talk much, and most importantly, she's too thin-skinned.What she needs is a girl who can speak well, not a big girl who is awkward.

"The list of recruits has been finalized. Only ten people are needed in Jintai Building. If everyone comes to beg me like you, then why should I set up an interview? I'm really sorry."

Yun Shu smiled politely and prepared to leave.

Si Nier hurried over, very anxious: "Boss, boss, please, can you make an exception, just once, really just once. Or, why don't you keep Jin Bao'er , I know I have a birthmark on my face, and if I stay here, it may scare the guests, but Jin Baoer is pretty, please let her stay, she is handsome and honest, let her serve tea to the guests Cakes are fine. She is very diligent and can do any job, my boss, please, let her stay!"

Jin Baoer obviously didn't expect Si Nier to give up on her own initiative, and gave her all the opportunities.

"Si Nier, what are you talking about! You are not ugly at all!" Jin Baoer quickly grabbed Si Nier and looked at Yun Shu, but because she was too nervous, she stuttered when she spoke: "Dong , Boss, I, we won't do it, we'll cause you trouble, we'll go, we'll go."

"Jin Bao'er! You can't go! Do you really want to marry that..."

"Stop talking! Go!"

Jin Baoer forbade Sinier to speak any more. It was strange that Jin Baoer always stuttered when talking to Yun Shu, but she didn't stutter at all when talking to Sinier.

"You two begged me to keep you for a while, and then said no. Why should I understand?" Yun Shu's curiosity was aroused by the two of them, let alone whether to keep them or not. , she still wanted to hear why they had to stay in Jintailou.

"No, no..." Jin Baoer started to stammer again.

Si Nier quickly grabbed her and said to Yun Shu: "Master, to tell you the truth, we have indeed encountered difficulties. Jin Baoer, Jin Baoer is handsome, but her family is poor, and she has a younger brother, In two years, we will be married. The family couldn’t afford the bride price, so Jin Bao’er’s parents set their minds on her. There is an old bachelor in the village next door to us, and his family has a sister whose husband just died. , and brought a son. Jin Baoer's parents wanted to change relatives. Although the woman was a widow, she had at least given birth to a child, and she would definitely give birth to a son when she came to their house. But, that old bachelor It's almost forty, and that woman is thirty, how can such a marriage exchange be successful! My boss, please, keep Jin Bao'er, if she can't find a job that can make money, she will really Going to marry that old bachelor."

Swapping is very common in rural areas, especially for poor families.Two families with sons and daughters adopted this method in order to allow their sons to marry a daughter-in-law and spread the branches and leaves for the family.

It is also possible for a ten-year-old girl like Jin Baoer to marry a forty-year-old bachelor. It doesn't mean that parents are patriarchal and don't love their children. There is really no way to do so.

Jin Baoer's eye circles turned red immediately, she lowered her head and bit her lip, without saying a word.

Yun Shu could tell that she was unwilling, but so what?If she couldn't afford the money to marry her younger brother, she could only marry an old bachelor.

Si Nier said again: "Boss, do you dislike Jin Baoer's stuttering? In fact, she doesn't stutter. She just gets nervous when she sees people she doesn't know. You see, she doesn't stutter when she talks to me. Jin Baoer , hurry up, tell me a few words for the boss to listen to, hurry up! Stop crying, stop crying, hurry up and talk!"

Si Nier was extremely anxious, but Jin Baoer refused to open her mouth when she became so stubborn.

"Jin Bao'er, what's the matter with you! I managed to get my boss, why are you so unbelievable!" Si Nier was so anxious that she shed tears.

Yun Shu was about to speak to persuade them, when Jin Bao'er burst into tears, and even Mo Hanrui, who was inside the Jintai Tower, was startled.

"Boss, you should keep Si Nier! Si Nier's parents said that the birthmark on her face can be cured in Luoshui County, as long as the money is collected, it can be cured immediately. Since childhood, Si Nier always gives me all the good things, I can't let her let me go. Please, my boss, please accept Si Nier!"

With that said, Jin Baoer was about to kneel and kowtow to Yun Shu.

Naturally, Yun Shu would not really let her kneel down, so he quickly pulled her up together with Mo Hanrui. It was almost noon now, and many guests from Yijiangnan had arrived, and they couldn't help but stop and watch what was going on here.

Yun Shu and Mo Hanrui brought the two of them into the Jintai Building. Seeing the two little sisters crying like pear blossoms and rain, Yun Shu was both angry and funny: "Did you two stay at the door on purpose to force me?" Accept yours?"

The crying of the two stopped abruptly, and Si Nier and Jin Baoer panicked: "No, no, my boss, you misunderstood. We just want to beg you to see if you can keep us. There is no other idea. My boss, you Don't be angry, we really didn't..."

Yun Shu waved his hand and said, "Forget it, what you are asking for is just a little maid serving tea and water. If you can keep you, you can change your destiny. Why don't I do it?"

So, this is what keeps them?

Si Nier and Jin Baoer jumped up and down excitedly, and quickly kowtowed to Yun Shu again.

Yun Shu couldn't laugh or cry: "We are almost a few years old, why do we always kowtow and kneel to me? Get up quickly, if you kneel again, I won't let you stay."

Sinier and Jin Baoer were really frightened, they quickly stood up straight, they didn't even dare to bend their legs.

Mo Hanrui shot Yun Shu a look: "You know how to scare people! Let's go, I'll take you to Sister Ruoling and ask her to measure your size. But we have agreed in advance that you are doing cleaning work , only the most basic salary, no commission, only two hundred dollars a month, if you agree..."

"Agree, agree, we agree! Two hundred dollars is already a lot!" Si Nier quickly agreed, and Jin Baoer nodded excitedly.

In fact, the two hundred dollars was just what Mo Hanrui said casually. Although it was much less than the girls who sold jewelry, it was already very high compared to those people outside.

Yun Shu seemed to be able to hear Si Nier and Jin Baoer whispering that they finally don't have to marry an old bachelor!

It is said that saving one's life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. If a few hundred dollars can save a beautiful little girl from dire straits, why would Yun Shu stand idly by?

After doing a great deed, Yun Shu's mood was so good that he was about to fly.Even though I didn't see Ao Zi'an and Qin Yulu in Yi Jiangnan, I didn't feel depressed. On the contrary, I was very generous and taught the shopkeeper two special dishes for free.

This made He and the shopkeeper very happy, and the tea and pastries were delivered to the Jintai Building opposite. Which of those little girls who had just been recruited to work could go to Yijiangnan for dinner?They were all attracted by these pastries, and they all smiled with crooked eyebrows, so unhappy.

The decoration of Jintai Building will take seven or eight days to complete. The girls have to train these days, and the craftsmen have already got the patterns and started to make jewelry. The gold and silver threads in the store are all ready, and all kinds of gold foil Beaded pearls etc. are also readily available.

However, only Master Guo and Master Huo, who are more skilled, can make pearl jewelry. After all, pearls are rare and expensive, and making jewelry requires more exquisite skills. Ordinary people really can't do this kind of thing.

Yun Shu had innumerable designs in his hand, and it was enough for Master Huo and others to work on them for ten days and a half months.

After seeing these patterns, Master Huo and the others finally understood why Master Xu and Master Cui spoke so highly of Yun Shu, and finally understood why even Junior Brother Guo, who had always been eccentric, could be subdued by her.

As the saying goes, talented people are popular everywhere, no wonder everyone likes Yun Shu so much.

Master Huo and the others praised and sighed at the same time. Fortunately, they listened to the words of Master and Senior Brother Cui and came to Jintai Building in Lianghe County, otherwise they would really regret it for the rest of their lives!
Qingxian's sister-in-law settled down and the children came to the training together. As a manager, she had to do better and better than others.One is for his mother-in-law and children, and the other is to not disappoint Yun Shu. So many young girls don't need her, but Yun Shu only let her be the manager, not only because she is from the same village.

Qingxian's sister-in-law also always remembers her mother-in-law's advice, Yun Shu helps their family so much, they can't discredit Yun Shu.

With Mo Hanrui watching over Jintailou's affairs, and Ruoling and Qingxian helping, Yun Shu was very relieved.

The weather is getting colder and colder. A layer of ice has formed on the edge of the pond in the south of the village. The reservoir in the north of the village is not frozen, but the spring water left from the mountain is not as much as before. It must be because of the cold weather. for the sake.

The weather is so cold, and the meat and steamed buns that can’t be eaten at home can be hung directly under the eaves outside the house. Even the mice are too cold to come out and eat them!

In the morning, when Yun Shu opened the door, he was shocked by the cold.She stepped on the thick cotton boots that Luo Qingyi had just made and came to the kitchen, only to see that the basin of water that was put in last night had already frozen into a hard lump of ice.

"Haha, that's great!"

Yun Shu's laughter attracted Luo Qingyi and Yun Sheng to look over. Luo Qingyi only cared about family affairs and didn't know anything about outside affairs, but Yun Sheng knew what Yun Shu wanted, so he immediately put on a change of clothes and came out.

"Frozen into ice? You can go to sea to catch hairtail!"

Yun Shu laughed excitedly, and the heat that came out of his mouth suddenly turned white: "Yes, Dad, Lao Wei and the others have been idle for half a month, and come here every day to ask me when I can go to sea. We can finally go to sea!"

The best time to catch hairtail is November and December every year, when the hairtail is plump and tender.

It stands to reason that the time has come long ago, but what Yun Shu waited for was not the time, but the weather.The weather here in Dongling is a bit warm. It is almost the twelfth lunar month and the river water freezes. Her hairtail fish cannot be eaten in a day or two. She has to use the natural weather to freeze the hairtail fish so that the hairtail fish can be preserved for a longer period of time. .
