Yoshida Mii

Chapter 268
The news of the workshop's recruitment was released soon. This time, the recruiting target is still the same conditions, and priority is given to people from Tagouji.Today's Tagouji is not what it used to be. Zhangjiazhuang, Liulou, Dawangzhuang and Xiaowangzhuang nearby all look down on Tagouji, because Tagouji is a gathering of mixed surnames. A barren mountain and a wild ditch occupy a lot of space. The area is small, the land per capita is small, and many families are very poor.

Now no one underestimates Tagouji anymore. As soon as you enter the village, you will see the ground paved with bluestone slabs. , a wealthy household like Dawei.

As soon as I heard that Baoji Workshop was going to recruit people again, people from several nearby villages came here. Many people came to the door with gifts through Aunt Lin's line, and they kept saying that they knew Aunt Lin. Aunt Lin introduced They came to find Lin Fu.Many people in the village saw it, and there was a lot of discussion, and some people panicked that their family had no money to give gifts, and Lin Fu would not recruit them.

But Aunt Qiuxia was furious, and old man Lin also felt that his face was quite dull, and he couldn't stand in front of his daughter-in-law and grandson, so he found an opportunity to go to his son-in-law's house and scolded his daughter.

Aunt Lin was also furious, "Why am I embarrassing my brother? He is in charge of recruiting people, and he can recruit whoever he says, isn't it just a matter of his words? What if I recommend him to work? ? He doesn't even give me the face of my own sister?"

"Your brother is not recruiting for himself. He is recruiting for Mrs. Li from Dongbao's family. It is said that whoever gives your brother a gift can come in and work. What has happened to your brother?" Old Man Lin said.

Aunt Lin didn't take it seriously, "Didn't that girl Dongbao be engaged to Dashi a long time ago? She is the daughter-in-law of the Lin family. Hers belongs to our Lin family. She has to give my aunt face."

"Your brother and sister-in-law didn't even think about occupying other people's private property, but you are thinking about the water you poured out!" Old man Lin became angry, and his words became stricter, "I'll put my ugly words here for you, if you hit your brother again Don’t go back to your mother’s house in the future, your mother and I have raised you for many years, married you off in a glorious manner, and we have already fulfilled our responsibility!” After finishing speaking, old man Lin was furious She walked away with her hands behind her back, leaving Aunt Lin stomping her feet angrily.

As a result of the recruitment turmoil, Lin Fu hid in the workshop 24 hours a day and asked Darong and Dawei to count the applicants. He then observed and screened at the end. Aunt Qiuxia was helping in the town in the morning and also in the afternoon. Hiding into the workshop with Lin Fu as company, old man Lin closed the door tightly, and would not open the door when he met someone he didn't know.

"It's like the fugitive whose portrait was pasted at the gate of the yamen!" Aunt Qiuxia complained to Li Shi when she went to visit Li Shi, "It was all tricked by my sister-in-law. If the person she introduced is a good one, don't worry about it." We also want to give gifts, but most of them are glib and flattering people, but they are not real people, how can we recruit such people!"

Mrs. Li patted the back of Qiuxia's hand with a smile, and persuaded: "You are her sister-in-law, so it's not good to say anything about her in front of you. We all know what kind of people you and Brother Fu are. If you don't worry about you, Dong Bao and I will hand over the workshop to you two?"

"It's because you and Dongbao trust us that we have to put our heart and soul into handling this matter!" Aunt Qiuxia laughed, "Otherwise, who would we be? What the common people hate the most is that they take black money and don't give it to us. Corrupt officials, bad officials who do things for the common people? If Lin Fu and I accept gifts from others, how is it different from the corrupt officials we hate the most, bad officials?"

Li Shi and Dong Bao have been at home in the town and have never returned to Tagouji, but they never expected that someone would find them.

When they went to the shop that day, it was already dawn. As soon as they entered the shop, Chunlei's wife pulled them and said, "A daughter-in-law came with her man. She said they were relatives of yours. Aunt Qiuxia also recognized them and arranged for them." Sit in the backyard."

To say that they are Dong Bao's relatives and not Li's relatives can only mean that the person who came was from the Song family, but Chunlei's daughter-in-law didn't recognize her, so Dong Bao thought of a few people, thinking that if Song Shuhai came with his wife , she called a few people to beat these two people out...

Entering the backyard, Dongbao saw Yinsheng's wife and a middle-aged man sitting on a stool in the yard, a little cramped. Seeing Dongbao helping Mrs. Li come in, the two quickly stood up from the stool.

Li Shi was almost five months pregnant, her belly was already showing, but her face didn't get fatter, she was still as beautiful and quiet as before.

"Hey, it's Yinsheng's daughter-in-law!" Mrs. Li said with a smile, "Sit down quickly, you're welcome."

Dong Bao helped Mrs. Li sit on a higher chair, and sat next to Mrs. Li. He greeted Yinsheng's daughter-in-law and the man next to him, "Auntie, uncle, you are here!"

She had seen the man next to Yinsheng's wife before. He was Aunt Song's second son, Liu Yinsheng.

Liu Yinsheng was obviously not as sharp-mouthed as his daughter-in-law, so he just kept smiling and heyed twice.

Yinsheng's daughter-in-law uncovered the cloth-covered basket on the stone table, pushed it forward, and said with a smile: "I know sister-in-law, you are happy, we didn't bother to congratulate sister-in-law a while ago, and there is nothing good at home." , Sister-in-law of this little egg will use it to replenish her body."

To be honest, Yinsheng's daughter-in-law was calm on the surface, but she was a little nervous in her heart. The relationship between the two families was not close, and Aunt Song had another scene.Also, looking at Dong Bao and Li Shi's bright attire, how could they care about the few eggs you brought!
"How can this be done!" Mrs. Li shook her head, "It's not easy for you to save a few eggs. I have chickens here, and there is no shortage of eggs to eat. You should take them home and feed them to your children!"

Dong Bao glanced at the basket and removed the wheat straw under the basket. He roughly estimated that there were nearly a hundred eggs, and it was unknown how long he had saved them.

"There is enough for the children at home." Yinsheng's daughter-in-law smiled, "What you raise here is yours, and what we send is our heart."

Having said all this, Mrs. Li naturally couldn't refuse anymore, thinking about cutting some tofu and bean sprouts for them later, and buying some other things for them to take back, so they couldn't just take other people's eggs for nothing.

"Auntie is here, is there anything else?" Dong Bao asked with a smile.

Yinsheng's daughter-in-law smiled awkwardly, glanced at Yinsheng, made up her mind, and said, "I want to ask my sister-in-law and Dongbao a favor."

"Auntie has something to say, don't ask for anything." Dong Bao laughed.

"Then I'll just say it straight." Yinsheng's daughter-in-law smiled, "I heard two days ago that your workshop is still recruiting people. I thought I would be able to work, but I don't know..."

Li Shi and Dong Bao looked at each other, and said with a smile: "It's not a big deal, as long as you are willing to work hard, the workshop will hire you."

Dong Bao also nodded, "Auntie can come here if you want, but there are two things, one is that you want to come to work, does my aunt know? The other is that our workshop starts early, and we start work at the second watch. I don't know if Auntie can catch up. Come here?"

"I know, my mother nodded and I came to see you with the baby's father." Yinsheng's daughter-in-law nodded quickly, "I can also get up early, so Yinsheng can take me to Tagouji in the morning, and it's not too far away. , to ensure that there will be no delay.”

"That's good." Dong Bao said with a smile, "What's more, outside the workshop, you are my aunt, but when you enter the workshop, you are a worker in the workshop. You have to follow the rules of the workshop and obey the management of the stewards. Like everyone else, if you make a mistake, the steward will punish you, and I can't help it."

Yinsheng's daughter-in-law nodded, "I know that, my aunt just wants to be like everyone else, honestly working hard to earn money. If I make a mistake, I will accept the punishment!" She is different from the second daughter-in-law of the Song family.

"Okay, I think my aunt is also a clean and tidy person." Dong Bao smiled, "Auntie will come to work whenever she has free time."

After hearing Dong Bao's words, Yinsheng's daughter-in-law was overjoyed, and quickly said: "I'm a country woman, so I can go to work tomorrow!" After saying this, Yinsheng's daughter-in-law felt that her attitude was too eager A little embarrassingly, she explained to Li Shi and Dong Bao embarrassedly: "There are many children in the family, and they are getting older every day. I can only eat enough... I don't want to bother you, there is really no way..."

Mrs. Li nodded, she likes people who are willing to work hard for their children, so she comforted Yin Sheng's wife and said: "These two years will be tighter, and it will be fine when the children are married, and you can just wait to have grandchildren. "

These words reached the heart of Yinsheng's daughter-in-law. Isn't it because of the child that she walked through the back door with a smiling face? She sighed and said with a smile: "It will be fine after these two years... Among the relatives, you and Dongbao are the best-hearted Last year, my mother was stupid, so she did something stupid to make you unhappy... My baby and his father are here to apologize for her!"

"Don't!" Li quickly waved his hand, "The old man has the old man's ideas, we just listen to it as a junior."

Yinsheng's daughter-in-law nodded gratefully, "It's just that you have a good heart. If you meet someone else, you might still be angry! My mother is irritable, and after thinking about it when she goes home, she will come back to it. It's also uncomfortable. My uncle and my sister-in-law used her as a weapon, but she couldn't bear to apologize to you, and it dragged on until now. Hey, my father was not willing to associate with my uncle and his family. After this incident, Just cut off the road, I haven't even seen each other for a long time."

Dong Bao and Li Shi listened silently, but they didn't expect that the Song and Liu families were no longer in contact with each other.

Liu Yinsheng, who was silent at the side, couldn't help it anymore, and said, "Actually, it's not my father's fault. My uncle's family, what do you say? I don't know where such a temper comes from. When you open your mouth and keep your mouth shut, you have to be valued by others." They, they have more face in front of so and so... They have to be respected and worshiped by others to feel at ease. If others are a little bit negligent, they will hate that person and say they look down on them. Our family is annoying uncle The style of the family is like that of a farmer, so why look down on those who look down on them? I live my own life, so why do you keep looking down on others?"
