After becoming a widow, I became the mother of seven children

The boy looked at Yan Qingqing and the others' retreating figures and fell into deep thought.

Yuan Huiniang was afraid that her mother-in-law would be unhappy, so she was cautious along the way. At the same time, I felt a little regretful as to why I had to suggest going to the Silver House.

Finally, Yuan Huiniang couldn't bear it anymore and asked, "Mom, do we want to go home now?"

Yan Qingqing replied naturally: "No, I haven't bought this jewelry yet!

Let's go to the next one. I remember there is another bank store on the nearby street. "

Yuan Huiniang breathed a sigh of relief and whispered: "I thought mother was angry."

Yan Qingqing sneered and replied: "Your mother, I don't get angry that easily. You should also remember not to get angry for those insignificant people at any time. It's not worth it."

Yuan Huiniang nodded quickly after hearing this.

Soon they arrived at another bank store, which was more elegant than the one they just went to.

Yan Qingqing was warmly received as soon as she entered. After asking their needs clearly, I gave them several styles to choose from.

Finally, Yuan Huiniang chose a silver hairpin made of magnolia flowers. Li Xiniang and Li Yueniang, because they were younger, one chose a wishful hairpin and the other chose a gourd hairpin.

Yan Qingqing looked at it and saw that it suited them well, so he waved his hand and asked for all three. A total of eight taels of silver were spent.

But Yan Qingqing didn't buy it herself. It wasn't that she didn't want to give up the money. There really wasn't a style that caught her eye at first sight. And she felt that wearing silver jewelry was inappropriate at her age.

Yan Qingqing looked at Li Xinniang and Li Yueniang and felt like a boudoir lady after putting them on, thinking that it was time to prepare dowries for them.

Their family now has some wealth, but if they don't prepare for it when they get married, they will be in a miserable state.

After spending most of the day shopping, it was getting late. After buying jewelry, the four of them drove the ox cart back to Canghe Village.

Along the way, Yuan Huiniang and the other three discussed the changes in the city, saying that this place had become more beautiful and that there had become tidier.

In fact, Yan Qingqing said that it was not that Chengyang County had changed much, but that the mentality of the three of them had changed, so everything they saw was different from before.

It was already dark when the three of them returned home. Mrs. Xu had already prepared a meal for them, and Li Xiangyang was watched by Li Xiangkang and Xiao Mochen. Li Xiangyang actually didn't cry or make trouble.

Yan Qingqing basically entrusts her children to Mrs. Xu when she goes out now. Of course, she rarely goes to the city twice a month.

Yan Qingqing saw Xu's efforts and would not treat the family of three badly.

The next day the butcher stall owner delivered the 120 kilograms of meat that Yan Qingqing requested early, as well as many large bones.

After breakfast, Yan Qingqing went to the embroidery workshop with Yuan Huiniang and the others.

Although this embroidery workshop is located in Canghe Village, Yan Qingqing doesn't come here often because it was originally agreed that the workshop would be for Yuan Huiniang and her three sisters. Yan Qingqing only gave a general direction, and they had to do the rest by themselves. Considered.

As soon as Yan Qingqing arrived at the embroidery workshop, Old Man He, who was guarding the embroidery workshop, saw their ox cart loaded with things.

This old man He is He San's father. He has always had a good relationship with Mr. Li. He is about 50 years old. He greeted Yan Qingqing enthusiastically after seeing Yan Qingqing.

Yan Qingqing responded to him with a smile, and then asked Yuan Huiniang to bring him two kilograms of meat and ten kilograms of noodles.

Mr. He asked a little confused: "Xiang Pingniang, Xiang Ping's wife, what are you doing?"

Yuan Huiniang on the side smiled and said: "Grandpa He, my mother said that you guys have been working for my family for so long, it is all due to your hard work.

Isn’t it the Chinese New Year soon? Let’s give everyone some benefits. "

Mr. He looked in disbelief. He had never heard of such a good thing even if he worked for a big landlord's family.

Yan Qingqing saw that Mr. He had not responded for a long time, so he smiled and said nothing, turned around and entered the embroidery workshop.

Because the New Year is approaching, the last batch of goods for Jinsheng Pavilion needs to be made in a hurry, so these embroiderers have less time to learn embroidery during this period, and most of the time they are rushing to meet the deadline.

Yan Qingqing glanced at Yuan Huiniang and said, "They have really worked hard this month. Let's get double their wages."

The usual salary of these embroiderers is [-] cash a month, double that is [-] cash.

Although he received more than a dozen taels of silver, he could still win people's hearts.

Although Yuan Huiniang was reluctant to give up, she quickly agreed after Yan Qingqing spoke.

Yuan Huiniang quickly gathered all the embroiderers together, and then said: "It's approaching the end of the year. My mother learned that everyone has been working hard recently, so she has two things to tell you."

After saying that, she looked at Yan Qingqing. Yan Qingqing was not polite. Although she was not managing the embroidery workshop now, it still cost her a lot of effort. It's natural for her to be this good person.

Then he said: "Thank you very much for your efforts in the past two months.

Our embroidery workshop has just started, the conditions are relatively simple, and the system is not that perfect.

But I see all your efforts. You are the first batch of embroiderers in our embroidery workshop.

As long as you study hard, you will be the old people in the embroidery workshop when our scale grows, and you can become the masters of the embroidery workshop.

Of course, I will also select a group of better people from among you to manage the embroidery workshop.

It is possible that your wages in the future will be double, triple, or even ten times as much as you are now. "

Yan Qingqing's words were like an inspiring stimulant.

They think Yan Qingqing is right. If the embroidery workshop recruits new people, they will be old people. If they have more apprentices, they will be masters.

Of course, the premise is that they have this ability.

In addition, Yan Qingqing also said that their wages can be doubled, tripled, or even ten times. How much that is, they have no idea how much it is. They only know that it is much more than it is now.

Yan Qingqing could tell just by looking at their expressions that they were full of passion.

Chicken Soup for the Soul without concrete benefits will not last in the long run, so Yan Qingqing slowly spoke again: "Although the embroidery workshop has not made much money so far, we cannot lose money to everyone.

Huiniang and I went to the county town yesterday to buy some things. Later, you will each receive a portion, two pounds of meat and ten pounds of white flour. "

These embroiderers were immediately excited. The prices of meat and white flour were about the same, both fifteen or six cents per catty. These more than ten catties were nearly two hundred cents, which was almost equal to their monthly wages.

They all began to praise Yan Qingqing's magnanimity and said that they were lucky to have such a boss in their lives.

Before they were happy, Yan Qingqing said again: "I will give you double your salary this month, so that you can buy more things for your parents and children at home."

If you thought Yan Qingqing was grand just now, you are moved now.

I don’t know who started it first, but words of thanks one after another echoed in the embroidery workshop.

People passing by outside were a little confused when they heard that the embroidery workshop was so busy. They wanted to go in and have a look, but they were stopped by Mr. He, saying that this was an important area of ​​the embroidery workshop and outsiders were not allowed to enter without permission.
