During the famine, my ancient well connected to modern times

"Ms. Fang, what are you going to do now?"

Madam Fang pursed her lips and said, "I want to find a job, but I can't just stay at home and have nothing to do."

It's okay if the days are short, but if the days are long, my sister-in-law will be dissatisfied.

Besides, if the divorced woman has been living at home, it will also affect the brother's ability to marry a wife.

Mrs. Fang didn't want to cause trouble to the family, but what could she do? She could do laundry and cooking, but her eldest brother and father refused, saying that she couldn't do the menial work after she came back.

She is not very good at needlework and can barely embroider a handkerchief. I am afraid that no one will want it if she gets it to the embroidery shop.

Jiang Miao understood her troubles and thought for a moment, "Why don't you come to our dessert restaurant?"

Madam Fang's eyes lit up, "Me? Can I do it?"

"Why not? You can make snacks, read and keep accounts, which can help a lot."

After Mrs. Fang got excited, she shook her head and said, "Miss Jiang, don't make fun of me. There are so many people in your dessert shop. How can you be short of people who can read and keep accounts?"

Mrs. Fang felt that Jiang Miao really pitied her and was not willing to accept charity from others.

"Sister Fang, I really want you to help me. Chun Qu Chun Lai is my assistant. They usually only sell snacks and don't know how to make them. Master Gu and his son can make snacks, but they have trouble keeping accounts. A little bit worse, you can not only keep accounts, but also know how to make snacks, so you can help me take care of both."

"This?"

Madam Fang was moved again. If it wasn't a charity for her, she could give it a try.

Jiang Miao continued: "Lan Xin will follow me and won't go to the shop often in the future. If there is no girl in the shop, a lot of business will be reduced."

Madam Fang was puzzled, "How did you say this?"

"Because women can make people let their guard down, women selling things are more trustworthy than men selling things, because when people buy things, they will suspect that what the male salesman says is false, but for girls, especially people like you, who are kind-hearted If you have a girl, they will greatly lower their guard."

It seems to be the case.

Madam Fang thought to herself that if she wanted to buy snacks, she would definitely choose Lan Xin's table. Other women might have the same idea as her.

Besides, men and women are not close to each other. Although they are just buying snacks, they will gossip when they meet pedantic people.

Madam Fang was still hesitant, but she could see that Jiang Miao really wanted to ask her for help.

Do you want to go?
"Why do you want to help me?"

Jiang Miao was stunned for a moment, then explained with a smile: "It's nothing, just help if you want. Besides, I do happen to be short of people, and the desserts you make are also exquisite. If you don't have this skill, I won't ask."

Mrs. Fang became more confident, "The dim sum I made tastes really good. I had thought about setting up a stall to earn some pocket money before, but the Qian family didn't like women to show up in public, so I could only stay at home and make some occasionally." Give it to the kids.”

But later on, the Qian family became so tight that she didn't even get a chance to make snacks. Even if she did, they were all taken away by the old couple and Qian Jin, and she and her daughter couldn't eat them at all.

"I happened to have made a lot. You can take it back and give it to the two children to try." Jiang Miao made a lot of snacks and gave them to Mrs. Fang.

"How can this be done?" Mrs. Fang declined. "Why isn't it working? It just so happens that you also have a try at my craftsmanship. If Sister Fang is really undecided, just discuss it with your parents and eldest brother. I sincerely hope you can help me."

Madam Fang finally accepted the gift, but she still couldn't help but be curious, "Young lady doesn't look very young, can you alone make the decision on these things?"

"Of course I can. The main reason is that my parents passed away early and there was only one eldest brother in the family. Children of poor people have long been in charge. My eldest brother used to have the final say in matters at home. Now that my eldest brother is studying outside, naturally it is me who has the final say. .”

Jiang Miao quietly told Madam Fang, "A woman must have strong self-confidence so that others don't dare to bully her. You see, my family used to be bullied a lot. Later, I made money and my eldest brother was good at studying, so there was no one anymore." You dare to bully us, Sister Fang, your father is rich and your brother is also powerful. If you can be tougher, I don’t think anyone can bully you."

Madam Fang was in a daze, remembering the period when she first got married, and her life was pretty good. Although her mother-in-law was more tricky, she was still able to get by. Later, I don’t know when it started, her life became worse and worse. Disaster.

Jiang Miao felt that Mrs. Fang was actually very capable, but she just didn't meet a good family, and some of the unfairness to women in this era led to her tragedy.

But she has come out now and will definitely get better and better in the future.

Mrs. Fang felt suddenly enlightened. Although there were some things she had not figured out, she understood that women can only live well if they have their own abilities.

She looked at Jiang Miao and smiled shyly, "You are nothing like the girl I know."

More than just different, she was so different. Madam Fang felt that Jiang Miao was completely different from the boudoir girls she had known in the past.

They don't have his natural and free spirit.

And it was this energy that made her very envious.

After Mrs. Fang left, Luo Tingye walked out of the room. He listened to the conversation between the two people, "It's so good, why do you want to ask Mrs. Fang to come over and help?"

Luo Tingye felt that Jiang Miao was not pitying Mrs. Fang, but that she must have other motives.

Jiang Miao didn't even raise her head, "Didn't I just say that? She is just right."

Luo Tingye thought for a while, and there was nothing wrong with having one more person in the store. Women always do things more carefully than men.

Luo Tingye does not discriminate between men and women. Even in some aspects, women do better than men. The important thing is that for the same work, women are paid less.

Luo Tingye felt that she understood. She did this to save money.

"Since you also like it, it doesn't matter if you stay. It can just replace Lan Yu. After all, you are still too young when spring comes. You invited the Gu family father and son to help. After thinking about it, Madam Fang is just right."

Jiang Miao glanced at Madam Gu and Sister-in-law Gu who were cleaning up the kitchen, "Master Gu and Gurong are actually not bad. I say this mainly because I feel sorry for Madam Fang."

Luo Tingye: "..."

He glanced in the direction of the kitchen and said nothing. After the two of them returned to the house, Mrs. Gu raised her head and looked at her daughter-in-law, "Has Gu Rong told you about the store in the past few days?"

Sister-in-law Gu shook her head, "I didn't say anything."

Master Gu has a very strict mouth and rarely talks about anything in the store, but Gu Rong is different. When he is young and energetic, he talks a lot every day when he comes back.
