Splendid peasant girl busy farming

Chapter 11367

"Holidays are cut in half, monthly salary is also cut in half, and year-end bonuses remain the same."

"Uncle, this is the greatest sincerity I can offer. If I go any further, it will be unfair to the other people in the teahouse and it will also break the rules."

If it weren't for Xu Yuanming's rich experience in managing tea gardens and preparing tea, the mere fact of kinship would not have been enough for Yang Ruoqing to offer such generous conditions to retain Xu Yuanming.

When Xu Yuanming heard what Yang Ruoqing said, he was so shocked that he stood up from the stone bench and bowed to Yang Ruoqing.

Yang Ruoqing also stood up and raised her hand to support him.

"Uncle, there is no need to be like this. You are not only the master of my tea garden, but also my elder."

Xu Yuanming's face was filled with emotion, and he said to Yang Ruoqing, "Qing'er, from the perspective of a manager, it is a blessing from my previous life that I have met a boss like you who appreciates me!"

"I am touched and grateful for the conditions you offered me!"

"But I'm afraid I'll let you down this time. I still have to quit my job at the teahouse."

"Uncle, you..."

"Qing'er, don't be impatient, wait for me to finish what I'm saying."

"Okay, go ahead. I want to hear the reason why you have to quit."

Xu Yuanming also sat down again. He glanced at the room where Yang Ruoqing was, sighed lightly, and began to tell Yang Ruoqing about his considerations during this period.

"…The income from the teahouse is self-evident. I can support my family of five on my own. As long as I don't waste money, I can even make a profit in a year."

"According to Mei'er's plan and arrangement before she gave birth, after she has finished her confinement, she will take the children to the teahouse and our family will be reunited."

"Now that Mei'er has given birth to three children, the family is seriously short of manpower."

"Even if I can convince my cousin Sister Hua to come with us to the teahouse to help take care of the children, there is another serious problem that we have to face."

"That problem was also the biggest reason why I decided to leave the teahouse and return to the town to find a job."

"That's the problem... of children getting sick!"

Child is sick?
Yang Ruoqing's eyes moved slightly. Yes, this problem is indeed very tricky.

We live in a teahouse, which is halfway up a mountain. The mountain where the teahouse is located is separated from Changping Village outside the village by several hills.

In other words, if several children suddenly fall ill, it will be difficult for them to come to the village to see a doctor.

As for going to the mountains to find village doctors in villages hidden deep in the forests to see a doctor, that's even more impossible. There are basically no village doctors in the deep mountains and old forests. Most of those mountain people fend for themselves, or collect herbs themselves, and just do things perfunctorily according to the rules left by their ancestors.

So it is a very serious problem for children to get sick, and young children are most likely to get sick, especially living in the mountains. The temperature in the mountains is generally cooler than in the plains below. In the summer, you can go to the teahouse halfway up the mountain to escape the heat. It is chilly everywhere. "We have three children in our family. If one gets sick, the other two will be unable to escape." Xu Yuanming's voice continued to ring in the pavilion.

"By then, Mei'er, Huajie, and I will be running around, and the kids will suffer too."

"I've thought about it and I've decided that you can't have your cake and eat it too. No matter how good the job at the teahouse is, I have no choice but to quit it and go back to town to find a job."

"Even though the income is lower, I am with them and their mother. We all live in the town and there are many clinics nearby. If the children get sick, we won't panic."

"My baby is three pounds... Qing'er, you can see that he is too thin and small. A child like him should not be carried to the mountains. I hope you can understand!"

Thinking of Sanjin, a child younger than a kitten, Yang Ruoqing felt a cold sweat in her heart for Xu Yuanming and Yang Huamei.

The child was so small, like a pocket-sized baby. Yang Ruoqing even doubted whether the child's internal organs were fully developed!
If there are developmental deficiencies, newborns like this one will need more and better care.

If the child is not properly cared for and accidentally gets infected with a cold or a virus, to be honest, with such a young child and given the current medical conditions, it is questionable whether he or she can be successfully raised.

"Uncle, I understand you. Okay, you take care of your family first, and we can work together again if we have the chance in the future."

But Yang Ruoqing knew that the possibility of future cooperation might not be very high, because Xu Yuanming was now in his prime. By the time he raised his three children, Xu Yuanming himself would be in his sixties.

It was impossible for Yang Ruoqing to hire an old man to work for her in a teahouse halfway up the mountain.

"Uncle, since you have made up your mind to leave, may I ask if you have found a new job?" Yang Ruoqing asked again.

Xu Yuanming hesitated, "I have an idea, but I haven't looked for one yet. By the way, Qing'er, I'm not leaving the teahouse right now. During the month or so that Mei'er is in confinement after childbirth, I will still return to the teahouse."

"Ah? Why?"

"Oh, I still need to talk to Wang Liang and the others about some things related to tea tree planting and care," Xu Yuanming said. "Also, Qingming and Guyu are not far away. That will be the busy season for our teahouse to produce tea. I'm thinking that after the first two batches of tea are sold, I will take them with me to make tea and pass on my experience to them. Only then can I feel at ease to leave the teahouse."

"Otherwise, if I just walk away and leave such a big teahouse to these newbies, it would be too unkind of me. Not only would I betray your trust, but I would also feel guilty about it. After all, every tea tree in the tea garden is the result of my hard work. I watched them grow..."

When he talked about the touching parts, Xu Yuanming's eyes became moist.

Yang Ruoqing could also sense Xu Yuanming's feelings towards the teahouse. It had been more than ten years, and it was not something that happened overnight. Now that he was leaving, it was also a last resort for Old Xu. His family and career conflicted, and he had to choose one of the two.

"Okay, uncle. During this time, you can take time to take care of the tea garden and teach them so that they can get started as soon as possible."

As long as Brother Baozi and the others get the hang of it, Yang Ruoqing won't have to go out and hire a master tea art master.

After everything was discussed, Xu Yuanming went to Yang Huamei's room to help look after the children, while Yang Ruoqing returned to the main room.

Liu came over immediately: "Qing'er, what are you talking about? Tell me quickly."

Yang Ruoqing rolled her eyes at Liu, her eyes saying: Do I look like I'm willing to pay attention to you?
Liu curled her lips and sat back awkwardly. After a while, she covered her stomach and went to the backyard to find the toilet.
