Chapter 152 Recruiting disturbance ([-])

Early the next morning, Xiucai ate something hastily and took a medium-sized food box to Lin Situ's house. Yesterday he made an appointment with his fifth uncle Lin Situ to go shopping in the town and recruit some long-term workers.

Before Xiucai arrived at Lin Situ's house, he saw Uncle Wu had already harnessed the donkey cart and was sitting on the donkey cart, eating a big vegetable bun and waiting for him.Seeing the scholar coming, Lin Situ glanced at the medium-sized food box in his hand and couldn't help laughing, blinking at him with an ambiguous expression of "you understand".

Xiucai, who has no bad intentions, is basically immune to it now, and handed the food box to Lin Situ calmly: "This is the lunch prepared by Guoxiang for the two of us." After speaking, he quickly jumped on the The donkey cart found a comfortable place to sit.

Lin Situ took the food box and couldn't wait to open the lid and take a look. When he saw a stack of his favorite braised lion's head in the food box, he couldn't help but smile, he sucked his saliva, smashed it and praised the most: " It’s better to be my little sister, I didn’t hurt her in vain, hehe..."

This was just heard by Mrs. Zhu who came out with a small bag, and couldn't help rolling his eyes at Lin Situ: "Look at your virtue." Then he put the small bag in his hand and the leather bag filled with water on the car, Then he turned to Xiucai with a smile and said, "Wang Hao, your fifth brother is like this, so don't bother with him."

As soon as Zhu's words fell into Lin Situ, he yelled dissatisfiedly from the side, saying that his sister made him his favorite braised lion's head, of course he had to express it.In particular, he bit the tail of the lion's head very hard, and there was a hint of resentment in the tone of his voice, which made people feel as if he had been abused no matter how he heard it.

The scholar only smiled at Zhu Shi and Lin Situ's words, but didn't say anything.The husband and wife are flirting, as a son-in-law, it's better not to interrupt. In Lin Guoxiang's words, there is one thing that people hate the most in this world, and that is a big human-shaped light bulb.Although Xiucai didn't know what that light bulb was, he was smart enough to guess that his current situation was similar to that light bulb.

Lin Situ's words successfully attracted Zhu Shi's eyes, and then he carefully told him to slow down and be careful on the road when driving, until Lin Situ waved his hands impatiently, and said in a repeated voice: " I know, I know, women are just talkative! Okay, let's go, you go back." After speaking, before Zhu Shi could speak again, Zhu Shi, who ran away with a whip and drove the donkey cart, stomped behind. .

"I don't know how to care about you. I really don't know good people!" Mrs. Zhu stomped her feet angrily, complained a few words on the spot, and then entered the yard angrily, then closed the door of her house with a "bang", and finally returned He took the latch and locked the door, muttering, "It's best not to come back, and you won't be allowed in when you come back, hum!"

After leaving the village, Lin Situ said to the scholar with a little embarrassment: "cough cough, then your fifth sister-in-law is just like that, women, all like such long-winded...cough cough..." Hearing the tone of voice I know that Lin Situ is very embarrassed, so I can't blame him for being embarrassed. My mother-in-law doesn't know what's going on. Every time I go to the town, as long as someone follows her, she tells him to be careful and drive slowly on the road. It made him extremely embarrassed.

If she didn't know that she was serious about caring about herself, Lin Situ would even wonder if she did it on purpose, or why would she always be so active when there are people around?
The scholar still smiled and said, "Sister-in-law Wu also cares about you, haha."

He thought: I don't think there is such a chance to be cared about. The key is that the girl Guoxiang thinks that walking is too tiring, so she can take one step less.

Every time he went out, Lin Guoxiang would not come out to see him off except for actively preparing some food for him. In fact, he still envied Lin Situ in his heart.But after thinking about it, Lin Guoxiang is doing her best to prepare food for him now, which is considered intentional.Thinking of this, he was relieved.

Hearing the scholar's words, Lin Situ couldn't help laughing again, a gleam of joy flashed in his eyes, obviously Zhu's behavior still made him feel very honorable.Which man doesn't want his wife to care about him?He is no exception.

When they arrived in the town, Lin Situ and Xiucai Yuehao met at the exit of the town, and then they went off to handle their own affairs.Xiucai first made a living on Yashi (commonly known as the talent market newspaper in modern times), and now that the busy farming season has passed, many people gather here to find a job and earn a little money to support their families.Most of the people who stayed here were elderly or teenage skinny teenagers, generally unable to do any heavy work.And those who are strong and strong usually go to the dock to work as helpers or are directly hired away, and there is no one in sight.

However, the work in the orchard is not as tiring as those goods at the wharf, so there is no need for overly strong workers. As long as they have the strength to handle, they are honest and willing to endure hardships.So Xiucai went around the tooth market and hired a few honest villagers. He told them that he was going to be a long-term worker, and he had to eat and live in the orchard all year round.But the treatment is better, so these people happily signed the long-term employment agreement, and finally pressed their own fingerprints.

Generally, people go to Renyazi to buy people who have signed a death contract and go back to work, so that the contract of sale is in the hands of the employer so that they are not afraid that these workers will make trouble or something.Even if the master treated those workers harshly, everyone can't say anything, because according to the laws of the Great Xia Dynasty, as long as the master does not beat the servant to death for no reason, it is not illegal.

However, as a modern person, what Lin Guoxiang hates the most is this kind of thing that treats people as goods and buys and sells them casually, and does not treat people as people, so no matter what, it is impossible to spend money to buy a few people back to add to her troubles.And Xiucai also grew up in the countryside, and suffered a lot when he was a child, so he was naturally opposed to this kind of people buying and selling, so when the two discussed it, they agreed surprisingly, and they both opposed buying people who signed a death contract. return.

So in the end, the scholar came up with an idea, just hire a few long-term workers, so that they don't need to sign dead contracts and workers are available.In fact, this is similar to the nature of workers who signed contracts for ten or twenty years before modern times. Of course, the benefits are much better than other workers.Anyway, everyone gets what they need, you get paid for your labor, and I get paid for your labor, so that everyone has no burden.

Xiucai smiled and explained the future work slowly to those long-term workers. Those workers were all honest and dull people, and they all listened carefully to what Xiucai had to say, for fear that they might miss a word. If you don't do well, you lose your job.It's not easy to find a job these days, and it's even harder if the employer seems to be kind.

Xiucai was talking to the workers, but he didn't notice that someone not far away was staring at him with jealous eyes that were almost bloodshot.

Today, Mrs. Zhang did not want to stay at home to take care of Mrs. Cui, who was completely paralyzed at home, so she followed Wang Liang to the town to go to the market, but by chance, she happened to see Xiucai bringing a few honest people from the teeth. When he came out of Yashi, he knew at a glance that he was hired back from Yashi to work.

Mrs. Zhang couldn't help thinking of what she heard from her brother-in-law a few days ago, saying that the dead woman Lin Guoxiang and her brother-in-law have now made a fortune. The big house is a row of tile-roofed houses, and the blue bricks and tiles on the roof are still shining after being exposed to the sun.

He also said that their family is full of fish and meat all day long, and the food is very good, just like the old man in the county.There are even more than a dozen big dogs in the family, and they are fed meat every day.

Although it is unavoidable that Zhang's brother and sister-in-law will add fuel to it, but what they say is basically the truth, making Zhang's eyes red with jealousy, wishing that the orchard and tile-roofed house belong to her.Even dreaming at night, she dreamed that the woman Lin Guoxiang died suddenly and left all her property to their family.

After seeing off her brother and sister-in-law, Mrs. Zhang intentionally or unintentionally spoke ill of Lin Guoxiang in front of Mrs. Cui, and kept complaining about her favoritism. Should not be sick, even if you are sick, you should not spend money on medicine and so on.Cui's sickness in bed was already enough to upset her, and then let the eldest daughter-in-law criticize and scold Huai like this, and her condition worsened in a fit of anger.He was already able to say a few simple words, but this time, he just collapsed on the bed and became incontinent, so he almost rolled his eyes and went to find the old man.

In fact, Mrs. Zhang was instigated by her sister-in-law to do this, saying that as long as the old woman is so sick every day, the scholar will send money and things on time every month, and then instigated her to deliberately anger Cui and make the old woman worse .In the words of Zhang's sister-in-law, as long as the old woman does not die, all the benefits will belong to their family, which not only takes the money benefits, but also loses the good reputation of a filial son and a virtuous daughter-in-law.And most importantly, this will make the scholar feel more guilty, so the money and things sent every month will become more and more.

Mrs. Zhang also found that as long as her mother-in-law was ill, she would get less benefits than before, so she happily followed her sister-in-law's instigation.Except when Wang Liang was at home, she was obedient and indifferent to Cui Shi, she was indifferent to her at other times, and even let her second son, who was not very popular, feed them three meals a day. What Cui ate.

"Master, do you think that person is the second brother?" Mrs. Zhang poked Wang Liang beside her with her elbow, and pouted in the direction of the scholar, asking.
Wang Liang followed Zhang's gaze, and his eyes lit up immediately, not to mention, he really is the second brother!
