Everyone was so reprimanded by the village chief that they didn't know what to say.

They just want to go to the village chief to say good things to the Lu family. They don’t ask for more. It would be good if one person from the family can enter the Lu family workshop. The Lu family workshop is still short of people anyway.

But who knew that the village chief had benefited from the Lu family and his whole heart was biased towards the Lu family. How could he take them, the indigenous villagers, seriously?

"Village Chief, you are not being kind when you say this. Why aren't our own fields well taken care of? This is all work in the workshop, and there are not many things to do. Who can't do it? ? With so many people in your family, you have benefited a lot, right? Tell us a few words about what’s going on?"

"Yes, we respect you as the village chief. All the troubles belong to the same village, so you wouldn’t say it so harshly, would you?”

“You yourself took advantage of the Lu family and didn’t let us get a share of the pie. This sounds like a lie. ?”

…

The more these people talked, the more enthusiastic they became. They didn’t think there was anything wrong with what they said. They were not afraid when they saw the village chief’s sullen face. Anyway, the villagers The elder is just taking advantage of the Lu family. If they expose him, he will definitely not dare to eat alone again.

Listening to these people talking, the village chief immediately laughed angrily and said very bachelorly: "Yes, I just benefited from his family. Several of my sons have done it for her family. All the women in the family are in his workshop, and they got a lot of good things at the end of this year. What can you do?"

Originally, I wanted to reason with these people and make them feel at ease. Work hard and let the Lu family see their sincerity, so that they can recommend themselves the next time they recruit workers, wouldn't it be natural?

Who would have known that before he even said a few words, these people would bite back and he immediately lost his thoughts. There was no need to waste his friendship with the Lu family for such a person. Such a person is Entering the workshop will only cause trouble for him, and then lose his face.

Everyone choked, feeling that the village chief was so shameless and dared to admit that he had gained benefits.

But before they could say anything, the village chief continued: "The reason why so many people in my family can enter the Lujia Workshop is because my family is diligent. Just ask, my family is working Although we don’t make the most money in the workshop, we definitely make a lot of money. Everyone knows that the Lu family gets paid according to the amount of work done. Lazy guys like you can’t make any money even if you go there!”

Since they had a falling out, the village chief didn’t want to give them a good look, and continued: “You’d better calm down. If something happens in the village, I will go directly to the county government office to find the county magistrate to remove you pests from the village. Drive them out, there just happen to be too many people in this village, I’m going to take care of them!”

After saying that, everyoneWithout waiting for them to speak, they just drove people outside.

No one dared to say anything. The sons of the village chief were standing beside them like this. If there was to be a fight, they would be no match.

What's more, no matter how young the village chief is, he is still a small village official. If something goes wrong, the county magistrate will definitely side with the village chief.

A group of people left in a huddle, still cursing.

Mrs. Liu, the village chief’s daughter-in-law, spat at their backs and cursed: “They are all shameless pickled things. What bad luck!”

The Lu family They don't know what happened to the village chief's family. After working hard for more than half a year, they can finally have some time off.

After the workers’ wages and benefits have been paid, it’s time for their families to share the dividends.

Mrs. Sun took out all the money she earned during this period and put it in front of everyone. She counted it and found that it was a total of one thousand two hundred and seventy taels of silver.

According to the proportion of previous investment, the public was allocated 482 taels of silver and 600 copper coins, and the big house, second and third bedrooms were allocated 190 taels of silver and 500 copper coins respectively. The Zhang brothers each have ninety-five taels of silver and two hundred and fifty copper coins.

There are still 25 taels of silver and 400 copper plates left as pensions for Mr. Lu and Mr. Sun.

The second bedroom of Dafang had only twenty taels of silver before, which seemed like a lot at that time, but now he has nearly two hundred taels of silver, which feels heavy in his hand and makes him feel indescribable.

Not to mention the two Zhang brothers, the investment money was all borrowed from He Jiuniang. If it weren't for He Jiuniang, they would still be paupers now.

Lu Guilan discussed with Mrs. Shen in a very excited mood, pulled He Jiuniang over and said: "Sister-in-law three, you lent us all the money we had before, and now we have decided to return it to each family. Twenty taels of silver, although it’s not a lot, is just a little bit of our kindness, so you must not refuse it!”

He Jiuniang didn’t want to refuse, she took it with a smile, she had indeed helped them, then A little interest is not excessive.

After the money was divided, everyone was very happy. They gathered around the fire and thought about the future, thinking that they would definitely make more money next year.

This is for sure. The reason why we can get so much money now is because the family bought so many more fields.

The two brothers of the Zhang family were also included in the fields they bought. After all, they also invested money in the first place.

Next year there will not only be income from the garment and food workshops, but also income from the fields.

During this period, Mr. Lu has also developed some methods for growing medicinal materials, and he will be able to plant them in the fields in the spring..

When the medicinal materials workshop is established, it will be another source of income.

The future was bright. A group of men, led by Old Man Lu, were all drunk. Finally, the wives of each family carried their men back to the house.

Then——

The job of washing dishes fell on He Jiuniang, a manless widow!

Really!

She looked at the sky speechlessly, and Lianhua came over with a smile: "Aunt Jiuniang, let me wash it!" Less bonuses, now there are thirty taels in the small treasury, which is the salary given by Sun every month and the bonus at the end of the year.

Originally, she wanted to return the money to Mrs. Sun and the money she had given to redeem her life, but Mrs. Sun said that she didn’t make much now and she would be empty after paying the money back, so she let her She saves some more and pays back more.

In fact, it was just a disguised refusal. Lianhua knew that she had no way of repaying the Lu family's kindness, and she only wanted to work harder in the coming year.

"Okay, please pass the plate to me!"

He Jiuniang is not the kind of person who exploits children. It is good that she is willing to help herself.

It’s late at night now. The other children in the family have gone to bed early, but Lotus is the older one and wants to clean up the mess sensibly.

Whenever this happens, He Jiuniang can't help but sigh in her heart, these children in the family are really more sensible than each other, and they can't do it well.

Other children took the exam because they had money to take it, but the child Lianhua was sensible because she was grateful and wanted to repay the Lu family.

"Auntie, let's set up the stall in Fucheng after the New Year."

When the washing was almost done, Lianhua suddenly talked about doing business.
