Chapter 207: Boss Gu Gets Beaten (5)
Gu Liushi had nothing to say, so she could only shake her hands, "Okay, get up, I will... just not favor your elder brother from now on."

Gu Qingyang stood up, gave Gu Liu a deep salute, turned and left.

Sitting on the kang, Gu Liushi shed tears silently, "I know that I favor the boss, but Yue'er, you are also a mother, you should know that mothers are like this, which child lives like this?" If it’s not good, I can’t wait to help him. And I don’t want to let the children feel that they are old and useless.”

"The second child has been sensible since he was a child. When he was a little older, he knew how to support my family. When there was no food at home, he went to the river to touch loaches and lotus roots. He also knew how to go up the mountain to cut firewood and carry it to the city to exchange money. He was 15 years old. I just went to do odd jobs in the escort agency, and I haven't worried about it until now."

"The third child hangs around outside every day, but whether he fights or does anything, he has never suffered a disadvantage, and he is popular in the village, which makes me worry. The fourth child has been able to study since he was a child, and he has never suffered a loss. Don't let me worry about it. No one else needs me to worry about it, so I can only worry about it to the boss."

"Okay mother, don't be sad, the matter is already like this, the fourth brother said that he broke the boss's leg, let me go and have a look." Gu Qingyue said, stood up and looked at Gu Qingyun. "Second sister, let's go together!"

Gu Qingyun turned around, and said with a blank expression: "Eldest sister is willing to go and see him by herself, I won't go anyway, my sister-in-law is going to find another husband's house for a woman who hasn't divorced me yet, I'm full Go and see her man."

Gu Qingyue had only been back for a day and hadn't had time to inquire about other things. Hearing what she said, she couldn't help being furious, "Didn't you slap her?"

"Hmph!" Gu Qingyun turned around and snorted coldly. "Meizi slapped her for me, and was almost beaten by her family Shaowu. My sister-in-law was lying in the yard and rolling around, but my mother scolded Meizi."

When Gu Liu saw her second daughter revealing her faults, she couldn't help but said embarrassingly, "Okay, it's been such a long time, so don't mention it."

"Mother, you are getting more and more stubborn when you encounter troubles." Gu Qingyue said, and sat back down again. "Since that's the case, I won't go to see him anymore, let his [-]-year-old daughter-in-law take care of him alone!"

After the turmoil passed, Gu Qingyang packed his bags and went to the city to rush for the exam.

Because the place of the exam was in the city, close to home, and Gu Qingyang lived in the academy, so Gu Qingmei didn't let the third brother follow her.

After he left, Gu Qingyue also brought her two sons and servants into the city, bought a small house to live in, and invited the whole family to dinner on the day they moved in.

As for Ma Yunshang and Gu Qingyun, they also entered the city early to work as supervisors at the handbag workshop. The two sisters-in-law can't stay idle, and they usually have to find work when they don't have work. Now that they have a regular business, naturally It's all about doing your best.And Gu Qingmei said, give the two of them the wages of Su Wei, Su Wei's wages are ten taels of silver a month.

Gu Qingmei was finally able to take a breath, sorted out the flowers she had drawn during this period of time, and picked a fine, sunny day to let the sisters from the Su family accompany her into the city.

Murong Yu and the fourth prince were so resolute in entrusting her with the business, so she would naturally be entrusted with the task of being loyal. She has such a personality, unless she doesn't do it, she must do her best.

At the first stop, she came to the handbag shop, and handed over the design drawings of several new handbags and the samples made by Yunshen and Gu Shaoya to Su Wei, and then accompanied by Su Wei, she went to the house to see the second sister and second sister-in-law.

After inspecting the house, she was very satisfied to see twenty or so young girls sitting in the workshop where they were working, all of them burying their heads in sewing handbags carefully.

Gu Qingyun is now a supervisor like Ma Yunshang, and he has things to do, and his mood is obviously much better.

Gu Qingmei chatted with them for a while, and then came to the embroidery village. The shopkeeper Zhang of the embroidery village naturally received her warmly, and led her around the embroidery village. There were thirty embroidered women in the backyard of the embroidery village. One person is guarding an embroidery frame, and they are all embroidering hard.

Gu Qingmei strolled around the room that was used as an embroidery workshop, and asked, "Master Zhang, it's hot today, you can open the door and open the window, the light is better, if it's cold, or it's cloudy and rainy What should I do? The light is not good, but it will affect the embroidery work!"

Shopkeeper Zhang said with a wry smile: "Then we can only light candles, which is not a small expense. One candle for each person is thirty pieces, and a candle weighing one catty is twenty copper plates, and thirty copper plates. A candle is six hundred copper plates, and it can only burn for three days at most."

Gu Qingmei thought for a while, and then asked: "What about that night? When will these embroiderers leave work?"

"End of time!"

"Then what time do they go to work?"

"Go to work at every hour, and take an hour off at noon!"

Gu Qingmei did some calculations, changed the hours into modern working hours, and found that Xiuzhuang is actually very humane, four hours in the morning, four hours in the afternoon, and only eight hours a day, so she shook her head.

Although such working hours are very humane, they are too inefficient. She asked again: "What about resting? Do the embroiderers have time to rest?"

"Of course, take a bath every five days."

"Then when you're resting, there's no one to do the work?"

Shopkeeper Zhang said naturally: "Yes!"

She shook her head, patrolled the embroidery village, and stopped at a corner where the light was not particularly good. The embroiderer was an elderly woman, her eyes were squinted, and she was struggling to thread a needle.

Gu Qingmei whispered: "Master Zhang, find me a mirror!"

Shopkeeper Zhang immediately found a young man and asked him to find a mirror. The young man was quite clever. After a while, he found a rhombic mirror that women usually use to dress up. The small one was polished with brass. , can be held in the palm of your hand.

Gu Qingmei walked to the nearest window, facing the sunlight with the rhombus mirror, and casually directed the reflected light towards the embroidery stand in front of the embroiderer.

The embroiderer had already threaded the needle at this time, and was embroidering a quilt where mandarin ducks were playing in the water. Suddenly, a ball of light hit the bright red satin in front of her, and she instinctively raised her eyes to look at Gu Qingmei.

Gu Qingmei said lightly: "Master Zhang, have you seen that? Using mirrors and lights can enhance the light."

Shopkeeper Zhang didn't understand her intentions, so he couldn't help saying timidly: "This subordinate is stupid, please show me, Miss Gu!"

"Tomorrow, you can buy a few large full-length mirrors, and then find a few skilled craftsmen to fix the full-length mirrors to the surrounding pillars. The full-length mirrors can reflect candlelight and increase the brightness of the light, which can save candles. Second, it can make the eyes of these embroiderers not so tired, and thirdly, we need to recruit another batch of embroiderers. When taking a bath, we can’t let everyone take a bath together, let them take a shift to rest, there can’t be no Also, arrange another group of embroiderers who only work at night from You to the end of Hai. If these embroiders still have time, you can let them embroider some money bags and the like in their rooms For small things, just pay them by the piece." As Gu Qingmei said, she couldn't help but despise herself for being so talented in exploiting the blood and sweat of working people.
