The beautiful pastoral field of Jiangmen girl

Chapter 368
Then, Qing Shu asked Mama Su to take them to lunch, and she took away the record book handed in by Mama Su and Gu Dashu's daughter-in-law, Mrs. Chen, and used it to do the final calculation of how much each person should be paid.

Every day, Mama Su kept records of how many silk flowers were made, whether they were good or bad, and how many were qualified.Yuan Bao took time every night to teach Mama Su how to write common characters, so making simple records was no trouble for Mama Su.

Every day, Gu Dashu's daughter-in-law, Mrs. Chen, recorded how many bracelets and what kind of bracelets they made.Moreover, whoever wants to covet the good supply line of the ancient mansion, or whoever wants to make up for it, the first one will not be able to pass the level of the Chen family.In this regard, the Chen family is very strict, and the girls and daughters-in-law who work under her are all docile and docile by her.

In fact, Chen is illiterate, let alone write.I heard that her third son, Gu Zhesan, was helping to record her records.Gu Zhesan is studying in the school in the town.In the first few days, when Gu Zhe went back from school three times a day, Mrs. Chen asked the elder girls and daughter-in-laws in the village to hand in the braided bracelets.The Chen family will count and inspect on the spot to make sure that there is no problem before accepting it.Gu Zhesan took notes beside him.After receiving the braided bracelet, Mrs. Chen will send out the thread for braiding the bracelet the next day.Gu Zhesan also clearly recorded who took how many threads and how many bracelets should be handed in.

Later, the school where Gu Zhesan studied had an annual vacation, and he was at home every day.Chen changed the time to collect the bracelet to after breakfast every day.In this way, she came to the town every three or four days, reported to the ancient mansion, handed in the finished product and records, received the thread, and stayed for half a day before going back to the village.

Qing Shu quickly gathered the data and calculated the wages that everyone should pay.

Silk flowers are paid in three grades according to the degree of difficulty.For the most difficult silk flowers, two copper plates are given; for the less difficult ones, three flowers are given a copper plate; for the easier ones, five flowers are given a copper plate.

For making bracelets, Qingshu only gave four styles, and there was no difference in difficulty. Every ten bracelets weaved paid a copper plate.

Qingshu brought the records, ledgers, and roster to Xu Wuniang's embroidery room, which was acting as a temporary workshop, and also put boxes and abacus with broken silver and copper plates at hand.She sat down and flipped through the roster, "Miss Cheng."

Xiaojuan, who was standing inside the door, pushed it open, "Miss Cheng, please come in."

Mrs. Cheng straightened her face, agreed, and walked in first.Immediately, Xiaojuan closed the door, blocking the sight of other people waiting outside.

Qingshu smiled and said softly, "Your ones are: 880 two first-class silk flowers, 41 cash for the fourth price; There are 510 four silk flowers, 380 coins for a penny. The total is 28 coins for six pennies. Do you use copper plates or broken silver?"

Mrs. Cheng was very excited, "The copper plate will be enough."

Qingshu took out six coins, counted out 72 coins, added a delicate purse, and pushed them forward together, "Take it." Then he clicked on the name of Mrs. Cheng on the roster, "Press a fingerprint." On the name The representatives who pressed their fingerprints have already received their wages.

Mrs. Cheng thanked her, pressed her fingerprints, packed the salary with the lotus gift from Qingshu, received it, and left.

Qing Shu then called the second name.In this way, people were called in one by one to pay the wages.In the end, she called Chen Qin's aunt, who was also Gu Dashu's daughter-in-law Chen.

Qing Shu said, "Two first-class silk flowers cost 410, two hundred and six Wen; Wages. The total is 890 nine coins, and I will pay my aunt's wages. Do you want broken silver or copper plates?"

Chen's excited hands trembled a little, "It's all done, it's all done... no, no... copper plate, copper plate!"

Qing Shu took out eight slings of money, and pushed a delicate purse to her, "I still have something to trouble Auntie, Auntie, don't go back in a hurry, wait for Mama Su."

Mrs. Chen responded with a full mouth, and packed the wages with the lotus Qingshu sent, and walked out, forgetting to ask the villagers for their wages.

Qingshu said that the wages of his own people would be paid later, and then called Mama Su to come in, handed a bill to Mama Su, and also gave Mama Su seven slings of 51 Wen, "This is the wages of the people in Xiaogujia Village. Wait for the trick After the carriage is ready, you send Mrs. Chen back, and ask Mrs. Chen to distribute the wages of the villagers according to the list." She then handed Mama Su an exquisite purse containing a lot of copper coins, "This is Aqinniang's wages , Wuhang. No one came, so you can only take it there."

Mother Su thought for a while, and asked for her daughter-in-law, "Miss, Aqin hasn't been back to her natal home for a long time, why don't you take her with you when the old slave goes?"

Qingshu laughed, "Mama Su, Aqin is your daughter-in-law, you are her mother-in-law, you can decide whether to take her or not, why ask me? I'm not her mother-in-law!"

Mother Su was amused, "Why is Miss still making fun of this old slave? Since Miss agrees, this old slave will inform Aqin."

Not long after, the carriage was ready.Mother Su and Mrs. Chen sat in the carriage and waited for a while before Aqin hurried over with a bundle in her arms.

Mother Su lifted the curtain of the carriage, "Slow down, slow down, you are all fit people, you can't walk in a hurry anymore!"

Aqin agreed bluntly, and got into the carriage.

Chen stared at Aqin's flat belly in surprise, "Yes? When did it happen?"

Mother Su smiled from ear to ear, and said cheerfully, "She has been very greedy recently, always looking for something to eat. Yuan He also said that she doesn't get up early recently, and always stays in bed. Yuan He thought it would be okay for her to sleep a little longer, Just leave her to sleep alone, tidy up and go to work in the shop by herself. Yuan He had good intentions at first, but she would always lose her temper with Yuan He afterward, saying that Yuan He didn't wake her up. The next day when Yuan He called her, she still behaved like that At night, she lost her temper with Yuan He again, like a child. I felt something was wrong, and asked her if her menstruation was right, but she hesitated to tell. The first one, you and My mother-in-law didn't come, so a doctor came to the mansion, so I asked him to feel her pulse. Only then did I know that she was pregnant for more than two months."

Hearing the good news, Mrs. Chen was so happy that she forgot that Aqin was married, and poked her finger on Aqin's forehead like in the past, "You careless girl, you don't even know your body, and you still think you are The child is not successful? If someone doesn’t pay attention, something happens, are you worthy of your parents-in-law? Are you worthy of Yuanhe?"

Aqin was embarrassed, and hurriedly hid behind her mother-in-law.

Only then did Chen remember that her mother-in-law was right in front of her, and smiled awkwardly.

Mother Su was in a good mood, and smiled and asked her daughter-in-law to sit down and not let her move around.

On this day, the eldest girl and daughter-in-law who received wages in Xiaogujia Village were happy, Gu Dashu's family was happy, and Aqin's family was also happy.Mother Su who is going to be a grandmother is even more happy.
