The dog ran in with the letter, his face full of joy
He hadn’t opened it yet and wanted to show it to his mother first.
Jiang Jiuniang reached for it and was about to open it. Sister-in-law Zhang thought that she might be inconvenienced, so she got up and tried to find an excuse to leave.
As soon as he stood up, Jiang Jiuniang grabbed him and said, "Sister-in-law, don't leave. It's just an ordinary letter from home. It's okay. And I have something serious to tell you later."
After hearing what she said, Sister-in-law Zhang sat down again and continued to make her own little shoes without disturbing Jiang Jiuniang and Gou'er from reading the letter.
Jiang Jiuniang opened the letter and saw the familiar font, which was indeed written by Lotus.
She told her that the person she wanted had been arranged, and she also talked about the business in the capital, and then mentioned her family members one by one, saying that everyone was fine and there was no need to worry, but Jiang Jiuniang was pregnant. Pay more attention to safety and don't overwork yourself.
At the end of the envelope, Lianhua said that he had prepared a surprise for her, but he couldn’t tell it yet and would know when it came.
“This little girl, you got up late with me and got up mysteriously!”
Jiang Jiuniang smiled and closed the letter, knowing that what she wanted to do was done, so she Sister-in-law Zhang said: "Sister-in-law, I have something to discuss with you. I wonder if you would like to do me a favor."
She held Sister-in-law Zhang's hand with a coquettish look in her eyes. mean.
Sister-in-law Zhang thought she wanted him to do something for her, so she immediately said: "If you have anything to do, just ask me, and I will definitely help you!"
If it weren't for the needle and thread in her hand, she would have been able to hold her chest in reassurance.
"Hey, sister-in-law, since you are so cheerful, I will tell you directly. I want to set up a few workshops in the village and open a few shops in the city, and then I will recruit some female workers to work. We don’t come here often, and we don’t take care of many things. I would like to ask sister-in-law to be the steward for me. If anything happens, sister-in-law, please take care of me.”
She tried to keep her words simple. Some, so that Sister-in-law Zhang can understand her meaning instantly.
Sister-in-law Zhang did understand, but she was stunned for a moment.
“Mother Jiu, it’s a good thing that my sister-in-law knows that you want to set up a workshop in the village, and you want to help people in our village live a better life. If possible, I would also like to find a job in your workshop. I do it to earn some money on a daily basis to supplement the family income, but you asked me to be in charge... I'm afraid that I can't do it well. I'm just a rural woman with no knowledge..."
Sister-in-law Zhang said this When she was about to wear her clothes, she nervously tightened her clothes, her heart was beating fast. She was flattered, but also very frightened. She felt that she could not control Jiang Jiuniang.Please do your job well.
"Sister-in-law, don't refuse in a hurry, listen to me slowly. The reason why I chose you, sister-in-law, is because your sister-in-law is the person I know and trust the most in this village. I didn’t give it to anyone to reassure my sister-in-law. Secondly, sister-in-law, you are a very independent person, otherwise you wouldn’t manage your own house so well. I admire this about you. Thirdly, I will send some people from the capital. I’ll help you. If you don’t understand anything, just ask them directly. Don’t feel embarrassed. It’s not shameful if you don’t know how to learn.”
“This is an idea I have had for a long time. The world is right It's not fair for us women. We women are not allowed to participate in many things, but I insist on going against the world. The shop and workshop I open accept both men and women, and they mainly favor women. After all, there are some heavy tasks that women cannot do, but they still have to do it. It is more suitable to find a man. I know that my sister-in-law is also an ambitious person and will definitely be willing to help more women, so sister-in-law, please promise me!"
During this time, Jiang Jiuniang wanted to have sex with Sister-in-law Zhang. She mentioned this matter, but she was worried that Lotus hadn't trained the people yet, so she kept waiting for the news. Now that she was finally able to say it, Jiang Jiuniang poured out what she wanted to say.
Sister-in-law Zhang was influenced by Mrs. Sun in the past, and managed her men and sons obediently at home. Zhang Youwei was also a good person, and the family was very happy. Later, she even took care of her children. The daughter was sent to work as a bookkeeper. From this, it can be seen that she hopes that women can have a good future. This good future does not necessarily depend on marrying a good husband, but on oneself.
Sister-in-law Zhang's mind was in a mess. She never thought that Jiang Jiuniang would think so highly of her and entrust her with such an important matter. What would happen if she didn't do it well?
"Otherwise, didn't you send someone here? Can I learn from them for a while before starting real management?"
She licked her lips , the overall situation is still a bit tense.
"No," Jiang Jiuniang shook her head without thinking, "Being a steward must have a certain degree of deterrence. You must act like a steward from the beginning, and only then will everyone surrender to you. Otherwise, it will be difficult to manage in the later period."
People from the capital must be a little arrogant. If Sister-in-law Zhang is inferior to others from the beginning, and then wants to take over power from others, then But it’s too difficult.
There must be competition between people, but Jiang Jiuniang doesn’t want Sister-in-law Zhang to go through those things, so it’s best to arrange everything from the beginning.
"But don't worry, sister-in-law, I will stay here until my confinement is over and I will teach you everything and help you establish your authority in the workshop. Don't worry."
Since we have to do it, we must do it comprehensively, so that Sister-in-law Zhang can feel at ease.
Sister-in-law Zhang breathed a sigh of relief. It was okay that Jiu Niang was here, and she felt a lot more relaxed instantly.
Pulled Jiang Jiuniang and said: "But our business here is probably not very prosperous. Wouldn't it be bad for you to do so much business at once? Why don't you try to do one thing first, and then take your time? ?”
Sister-in-law Zhang’s words were carefully considered, not only not to offend Jiang Jiuniang, but also to persuade her.
Jiang Jiuniang understood what she meant and said: "Sister-in-law, don't worry, I'm sure of it. We focus on making money from the rich."
After hearing what she said, Sister-in-law Zhang I was relieved, and I was very touched and said: "Niang Niang, thank you, you are thinking of us all the time. I really don't know how to thank you."
"What is this? Here is The root of our family, my family is now having a better life, and it is right to help the people in the village. I hope everyone will get better and better."
After saying that, she said: "Sister-in-law, I will take care of this matter. I told you, then you will help me keep an eye on the hard-working and honest women in our village and the surrounding villages. Girls are also fine, but girls should be smart and eloquent, so I will arrange it. It is also more convenient to go to the shop to do things. Sister-in-law, if there are reliable people in your mother's family, you can arrange some for me."
To put it bluntly, I just want to support Sister-in-law Zhang's family. Sister-in-law Zhang was instantly moved to tears. whirling.
Jiang Jiuniang knew that the people in Sister-in-law Zhang’s natal family were also good. She had always taken her family with her when she was fleeing from famine. They were reliable. Such people deserved her help.
