Yu rolled her eyes and said mercilessly: "A whole family has a house, and you have a house by yourself. Fifteen cents is the price of a house. My mother said, if you don't pay, I won’t let you live there.”

At this point, she quietly apologized to Mrs. Sun in her heart, saying that she didn’t mean to blame her.

Mrs. Zhou sneered coldly and said with a smile: "Looking at the way you speak like a mother but don't speak like a mother, in my opinion, you have been led astray by this family. You don't even know who your own mother is. I can’t even tell the difference!”

Hearing her talk about her mother, Yu’s eyes instantly turned cold: “It’s none of your business whether I can tell the difference. If you don’t want to work to pay off the debt, you can leave now. , Anyway, the New Year is over now, and you said before that you would only spend the New Year at home before leaving."

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Zhou's face instantly changed, and she pointed at Mrs. Yu's nose and cursed : "Yu Xiao'e! I'm your sister-in-law. I'm the only one left in your family. I worked so hard to find you. Is this how you treat me?"

She compared Mrs. Yu was a head shorter and she had to raise her head when swearing. When she saw Mrs. Yu looking at her condescendingly, the bad breath lingered in her heart.

She wanted to break up and leave, but she couldn't live without it, but she thought she still had important things to do, so she forced herself to endure it.

Mrs. Yu didn’t have much reaction when she was scolded like this. She just said calmly: "I have told you before, even if you are my sister-in-law, you have no blood relationship with me. I Now that I can take you in, I have fulfilled my obligations as a relative. If you are willing, you can work to pay off the debt. If you are not willing, you can leave now."

After experiencing so many things, Mrs. Yu knows that she should treat each other sincerely. Who is this person? As for Mrs. Zhou, this sister-in-law who was not very pleasing to her before, she felt that she had done her best to be kind and righteous.

　"Oh, by the way, I forgot to tell you that our family is now separated. Although we still eat together, everyone must pay for food. No matter how old they are, each person has one tael of silver. After you have used up the money, you have to pay. If you want to stay, you have to pay one or two silver for food. If you can't afford it, it's still the same, work to pay off the debt."

Mrs. Zhou finally calmed down and heard This almost made me jump.

She went through a lot of hardships to get from Changzhou to Jingzhou, and the resettlement allowance given by the government was only three taels of silver.

One tael of silver is enough for her to live alone for a year. Here, one tael of silver is just for food!

"You should also know during this time at home that our food is better and our expenses are better. One tael of silver per person is probably enough for two or three months. If you want to join us, If you want to eat well, you have to work hard to make money, otherwise you won’t even be able to pay for food.”

"Don't think it's not worth it. A three- or four-year-old kid like Gou'er only costs one tael of silver. Anyway, you can make up your own mind. If you don't want to, you can go to the food workshop and talk to him. Several little girls eat together."

Mr. Yu didn't mention the garment workshop. The sewing machines in the garment workshop are a big secret. If Mr. Zhou knew about it and leaked it, it would cause trouble for the family. .

Mrs. Zhou’s eyes widened, thinking that she had to work hard to be able to eat here. She couldn’t even see the money she earned, so it was directly mortgaged for food expenses?

He also asked her to go to the food workshop to feed a few little girls together. Those few were servants of the Lu family. If she ate with them, wouldn't she also become a servant of the Lu family? ?

What a beautiful thought!

Anyway, she doesn’t want to be here all the time. She needs to stabilize these people first.

She thought about it carefully, then smiled softly and said: "Sister, you also know that I am only your relative now. Since you have separated, you must have money. , you can help me advance the one tael of silver first, and I will return it to you after I have earned it. What do you think?”

　“Not so good!”

Mrs. Yu rolled her eyes. She just called her Yu Xiao'e by her first and last name, and now she calls her sister. This person's fall is faster than the sky!

“My family has a business, and there are many places to spend money in the new year. I only kept the food expenses for a few of my family members, and the rest was used for business. You can only work to pay off debts. It's all because you are my sister-in-law that my family agreed to give you this opportunity. Don't make it difficult for me."

Mrs. Zhou saw her heartless and unjust look, and immediately gave up. I had no hope, so I had no choice but to accept it.

On the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, the weather cleared up and it was a good day. This was also the day when the Lujia Workshop started work.

At dawn, a large group of people gathered in front of the Lu family. These were people who helped the Lu family, including the workshop and long-term workers in the workshop.

Because they worked in the Lujia workshop in the second half of last year, every family has had a good year this year, which is the first time in history.

Everyone remembers the kindness of the Lu family, so on the morning of the start of work, everyone came early by chance, striving to make more money in the new year and have a good year next year. .

It was at this time that Ms. Zhou realized how big the Lu family’s business was. With so many people packed together, how much did they need to pay each month?

Ms. Yu is obviously very rich, but she still wants her to pay the rent and pay for her own food. This is obviously aimed at her.

Wait, these people,All waiting!

She wants to make them even poorer than before in their hometown, and see if they dare to talk to her!

After everyone was gathered, Boss Lu made a simple speech as a representative. This was a task assigned to him by He Jiuniang a few days in advance.

Boss Lu was nervous and excited to speak in front of so many people. He was the eldest son in the family and had to be at the forefront of everything he did.

And the third brother and sister said that this was a training opportunity for him. In the future, other people in the family will also take turns speaking as representatives to exercise their courage and expression skills.

"Everyone has been working in our Lu family workshop for some time. I know that everyone is hardworking and capable, and our Lu family will not treat you badly. In the new year, we have formulated some new rules With new benefits and new benefits, everyone has the opportunity to increase their salary. Let’s work together to make our Lujia Workshop business bigger and better, so that every household can live a good life!”

He didn’t say much, and it was He Jiuniang who taught him what to say in advance.

Despite this, he still studied it carefully over and over again in order to be able to finish it smoothly in one breath.

After he finished speaking, he took a deep breath and smiled. It was true that he had been practicing for the past two days and it was still perfect. He was very satisfied with it.

He Jiuniang took the lead in applauding, and others also followed suit. Then she was curious about what new regulations and benefits had been added. Most of these were from the garment workshops. Lu Guilan would explain in detail in the workshop later. .

Roughly speaking, these are some rules for healthy competition. Currently, Lu Guilan is in charge of it. With so many people, oversights are unavoidable in some cases. Therefore, it is not a big deal to start running for group leaders, and He Jiuniang does not participate. , leave everything to Lu Guilan to decide.
