Chapter 267
"Let me just say that our Furong Township owner not only enriches his own family, but also blesses the village." The village head's wife said joyfully.

The older girls, younger daughter-in-laws and older ladies from every household gathered in the courtyard of Lao Bai's house to take on tasks.

"That is, thanks to Xiao Yuanbao, we not only have food to eat during this drought, but now we can earn some money to subsidize our family." Aunt Hu said with emotion.

Aunt Hu’s son has not recovered from illness, so she can’t go to work in the mines. Aunt Hu can make a living by sewing masks so she can have spare money to consult doctors and medicines for her son. In the past two days, when she opened her eyes at home, she would say good luck to Xiaofuyuan.

"Qiu Niang has taught everyone how to sew. Later, everyone took cotton cloth and gauze to go home and sew. First, everyone must wash their hands, and second, they are not allowed to hide cloth and gauze. Think about it, your men or sons are in the mines , This is something to save their lives, whoever cuts corners will be the one who puts the oil in the pot. Another thing is that this is the task of the imperial court and everyone is paid for it. If they are fooled, the imperial court will not let it go." The old lady Bai stood in the yard facing the big Girls, daughters-in-law and big ladies shouted and warned.

"Qiu Niang will check the masks that everyone sews one by one. If she finds that she has cut corners, the job will not be assigned to her." The old lady Bai finally mentioned the punishment measures for cutting corners.

"Madam Bai, don't worry, we will definitely sew well."

"That is, if anyone cuts corners, I will spit on her to death."

"Listen up, everyone, whoever tarnishes the reputation of our village owner Furong will simply leave our village."

Everyone expressed their opinions one after another.

The old lady Bai saw that the fire was almost ready, so she asked Qiuniang to bring her two granddaughters-in-law to announce the wedding ceremony to everyone.

Xiao Fuyuan and Da Lang sat aside to record.Ever since Xiao Fuyuan entered a private school to study and learned to write calligraphy, although the writing is not so good, it is not a problem to memorize something.Dalang mainly checks the numbers.

In less than an hour, the cloth and yarn were distributed quickly.

Finally, when it was Aunt Hu's turn, according to the old lady Bai's private instructions, Qiuniang gave her twice as much cloth and gauze as others.

"Why do I have more than others?" Aunt Hu asked puzzled.

"Ms. Hu, there isn't much work in the field now, and you are more capable, so grandma will assign you some more work." Xiao Fuyuan said with a sweet smile on her face.

Aunt Hu was just about to express her gratitude to the old lady Bai, but the old lady Bai waved her hand and said, "It's my little granddaughter who reminded me that your son is sick and the family needs money everywhere, so I thought of giving you more points so that you can earn more."

Aunt Hu was moved.

Stopping Xiao Fuyuan from wiping tears, he said: "Our Xiao Yuanbao has a really kind heart, and he can still think of me, an old lady, and buy flowers and clothes for you when my aunt earns money."

Xiao Fuyuan said with a smile: "No need for Aunt Hu, don't worry, Brother Hu's illness will be cured soon."

Aunt Hu wiped away her tears, with a smile on her face, she said: "I don't believe what others say, but I believe what Xiao Yuanbao said, aunt, and Xiao Yuanbao is more effective than the Bodhisattva in that temple. If you, Brother Hu, are so kind Now, my aunt will never worship Bodhisattvas again, and my aunt will worship Xiaoyuanbao."

Xiao Fuyuan: "..."

It doesn't have to be like that.

Here, Qiuniang is busy with the masks, so she can't spare her energy to do the housework. The housework falls on Xie Chuntao and You Jingui.

Xie Chuntao has always been more dutiful and kind. Before Qiuniang was not here, she didn't pick anything from washing and cooking to cleaning the house.

You Jingui is different. Firstly, he is lazy, and secondly, he feels that the family favors Qiuniang, an outsider. Instead of entrusting the good mask business to the family, an outsider supervises it.

The idea of ​​the mask was not born by Qiuniang, but by my sister.

But she just thought about it and didn't dare to say it out. In order to please her sister-in-law to get her turn next time, she was active in her work.

Therefore, there is a lot less friction between sisters-in-law.

After discussing with Mrs. Zhen's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, the old lady Bai decided to hand over the reins of the family to Xie Chuntao.

In the past, Xie Chuntao couldn't suppress You Jingui, it was because she was not in charge of the family, and was occupying the name of elder sister-in-law for nothing.

So after dinner, Mrs. Bai and Mrs. Zhen made this decision in front of the whole family.

"...Grandma, mother, this family should be run by grandma or mother, I can't."

Lao Bai's family handed over the power of the family to himself, which represented incomparable trust in him.

Xie Chuntao was quite moved, but thinking that her grandma was still there and her in-laws were not very old, it was too early to take charge of the house by herself, so she declined.

"Are you just saying that because you want to be lazy? God damn, I have to take care of the whole family at such a young age. Your mother's housekeeper will throw away a broom and a bowl of rice, and you don't care who you give it to?" Old lady Bai Knowing that Xie Chuntao's temperament is the most indisputable, so he deliberately used aggressive methods.

You Jingui is eager to try, so leave it to me.

"Grandma, I didn't think that way..." Xie Chuntao was anxious.

"Could it be possible to make a deal for your sister-in-law? How old is Xiao Yuanbao? Although she has brought a good life to our family, is it appropriate for the housekeeper to give her a little girl's house? Why do you look after it as a sister-in-law?" Old lady Bai put her arms around her. Xiao Fuyuan said.

Xie Chuntao panicked.

Sister-in-law is the delicate girl in the family, how can she be made to worry about the eating and drinking of the whole family?
"Chuntao, you are the eldest daughter-in-law, and sooner or later you will be the one who will bear the burden of this family. Your grandma is getting old, and I am not good at housekeeping, so I have to leave it to you." Zhen said gently to Xie Chuntao, "You have always been a good one. People, I have been married to the Bai family for so many years, I am filial to my elders, I care about my brother-in-law, and I love your sister-in-law like a daughter. We all see it. Your grandma, me, and your father are all at ease to hand over the house to you. "

What the mother-in-law said made Xie Chuntao cry.

"Then, then I'll take over the housekeeper." Xie Chuntao said softly.

The old lady Bai was happy, lifted her clothes and untied a bunch of keys on her body, and said one by one: "This is the key to the warehouse, this is the key to the grain, and this is the key to the cash box..."

When You Jingui heard that Xie Chuntao had given all the keys to the money box, she was furious.

"Since you are the housekeeper, you are in charge of everything in the house, from rice to money. By the way, your third brother comes to the house every month to reconcile the accounts in the shop, and it will be right for you when the time comes." The old lady Bai said.

Xie Chuntao was startled, even handing over such important things as money to her?

Sitting beside Xie Chuntao, Bai Dazhuang was very proud that his daughter-in-law was so good that his grandma and parents were willing to hand over the financial power of the family to her.

"Daughter-in-law, grandma and parents believe that you can take care of the house." Bai Dazhuang said.

Xie Chuntao dared not pick up the key.

Xiao Fuyuan took it from old lady Bai and handed it to Xie Chuntao, saying, "Sister-in-law, can I have candy cake tomorrow morning?"

Xie Chuntao choked up and said, "Yes, yes, there is nothing wrong with that."

Alas, my sister-in-law has made it up for herself, she can definitely take care of the house.

"Grandma, father and mother, I will take good care of the house, and I will be filial to you in the future and treat my sister well."

Xie Chuntao took the key to express his determination.
