Seeing Jiang Luorou looking this way, Sister-in-law Li introduced her enthusiastically: "Zicheng's mother, you just got married not long ago, so you probably don't know her. This is the daughter-in-law of Li Dazhuang, the east of the village, and her name is Xiaorong. This is She is the most ingenious and quick at work in the village."

When you said you wanted to hire someone to do some work last night, the first thing I thought of was her, so I brought someone to you early in the morning.

The little Rong next to her heard Mrs. Li praising her so much, and her fair little face turned rosy. She said sheepishly: "Don't listen to Mrs. Li's nonsense. I'm so ingenious. If I tell you, I'm afraid I'll get angry." Makes people laugh out loud.”

Mrs. Zhao also said in a more jealous manner: "Look, she's already embarrassed after complimenting her a few times."

Seeing Xiaorong's embarrassment, Jiang Luorou quickly smoothed things over and said, "Sisters-in-law, you see it's getting late. Do you want to start doing things?"

Sister-in-law Li slapped her thigh and said, "Look at me, how can I forget about business as soon as we start chatting? Mother Zicheng, why did you ask us to come here today?" After that, she rolled up her sleeves and got ready to work.

Zhao and Xiaorong also waited quietly for Jiang Luorou's instructions.

After Jiang Luorou saw that several people were already in the state, he began to explain what to do.

What we are going to do today is rinse these potatoes with water, cut them into small pieces, and grind them into potato pulp.

After several people discussed it, Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Li were responsible for cleaning the potatoes, Xiaorong was responsible for cutting the potatoes, and Jiang Luorou was naturally able to pull the mill to grind the soy milk.

After the division of labor was clear, Jiang Luorou took out some snacks from the cabinet and gave them to the children so that they could go out and play. Little did they know that Zicheng and Xiao Liuer had to stay and help with the work.

Jiang Luorou persuaded, "Zicheng, Xiao Liu'er, you take care of your younger brothers and sisters. This matter is also very important."

Unexpectedly, Xiao Liu'er retorted seriously: "Aunt, Zicheng can take care of the younger brothers and sisters by himself. Just let me stay and help, okay? I'm aunt's apprentice. It's no longer good for an apprentice to help the master." It’s a normal thing. Could it be that what Auntie said yesterday was a lie?”

Seeing that there was nothing he could do to persuade her, Jiang Luorou could only agree and let Xiao Liuer stay and help.

After Xiao Liu'er saw Jiang Luorou's agreement, she and Ning Zicheng looked at each other while Jiang Luorou wasn't paying attention, with expressions in her eyes that her plot had succeeded.

After Zicheng took his brother and sister out, Xiao Liuer also brought a stool to join the potato washing army.

This is how the assembly line works.

Jiang Luorou pushed the graphite in circles and added potatoes mixed with water from time to time. The potato pulp water flowed into the bucket along the graphite.

Time passed quietly, and unknowingly the sun was already hanging high in the center of the sky.

Jiang Luorou raised her head and glanced at the sky, then asked everyone to stop and take a rest before continuing to work after lunch.

After seeing Jiang Luorou speak, several people sat up from their stools, moved their limbs and planned to go home and cook.

When Jiang Luorou saw this, he quickly stopped a few people, "Where are you going? Come back quickly."

How can anyone hire someone to work and not even bother with a meal at noon? Don't you embarrass me by leaving? After Jiang Luorou's repeated attempts to stay, a few of them agreed to stay for lunch.

Jiang Luorou sat a few people around the table in the main room, and brought pears, red dates, and some snacks and put them on the table for them to taste.

Several people said one after another that they were all bankers, how could they be so polite. Forget about these fruits, let’s take the snacks back and keep them to comfort the children.

Jiang Luorou said dissatisfied: "Since I took it out for you to eat, there is no reason to take it back."

After saying that, Jiang Luorou walked towards the kitchen, quietly took out the pork bought yesterday and planned to make a large portion of braised pork and potatoes.

At this time, Zicheng also came back from outside with his children, followed by Tiezhu. Zicheng left the child in the care of Mrs. Li and the others, and followed Xiao Liu'er to the kitchen.

As soon as Zicheng entered the kitchen, he shouted: "Mom, Zicheng is here to help you light the fire."

Xiao Liu'er also smiled and said: "Aunt, Xiao Liu'er is here to help you."

Jiang Luorou didn't refuse and ordered Xiao Liu'er to get some washed potatoes and wash a lot of spinach.

After Xiao Liu'er finished everything, she watched Jiang Luorou cooking.

Jiang Luorou steamed the rice in the pot and then started making braised pork.

Seeing that Xiao Liu'er was so serious and didn't hide anything, he explained the essentials to Xiao Liu'er while cooking.

Half an hour later, the fragrant braised pork was served, along with a bowl of cold spinach.

Seeing that meat and vegetables were served, Sister-in-law Li and Xiao Rong said embarrassedly: "It's already good that we can help and get paid, but I'm really embarrassed to have to spend so much money on you.

Jiang Luorou waved her hands and said nonchalantly: "What's the point of being embarrassed? You have to treat me well when you work for me. Only when you are full can you have the strength to work."

After everything was ready, everyone just raised their chopsticks and got ready to eat.

At this time, Ningtang, who went to the county town to buy a cow trough, also came back from outside and handed the remaining copper coins to Jiang Luorou.

When Jiang Luorou saw Ning Tang come back, she joked: "After all, fourth brother is the one who picks the time. If the food is just right, you'll be back. Fourth brother, come in and sit down. I'll get you some food." After that, he went to the kitchen. Go.

After adding food, everyone gathered around the table and started eating. During this period, he would inevitably praise Jiang Luorou's cooking skills. Even though Jiang Luorou was thick-skinned, he was not embarrassed at all.

After a while, everyone finished their lunch, and Jiang Luorou quickly cleaned up the dishes with the help of Xiao Liu'er.

As soon as they walked out of the kitchen, they saw the three of them already gathering potatoes.

Jiang Luorou saw this and said quickly: "Why don't you take a break just after lunch? I'm not a landlord or a rich man, so I'll whip you with a whip. Or am I afraid that I'll pick the wrong spot and deduct wages? Come here, have a rest and eat." Go back to work."

Mrs. Zhao said: "Look what my brothers and sisters said, if you entertain us like this, we will feel guilty if we don't work hard.

Jiang Luorou saw that he couldn't persuade anyone, so he rolled up his sleeves and continued to push graphite.

Xu was full at noon, so the few people worked very quickly. Around three o'clock in the afternoon, more than a thousand kilograms of potatoes were ground.

Several people imitated Jiang Luorou, picked up cotton bags, filled the potato pulp water and filtered it in the water tank over and over again. Finally, the potato pulp was filtered before the sun went down. Ningtang worked outside all afternoon and built the cowshed.

Jiang Luorou took several people to the main room to rest, while he went to the kitchen to find three cloth bags, put some spinach, pears and water spinach in them and took them to the main room. Then he went into the bedroom and took out some copper coins, counted them and tied them with a rope, and then entered the main room with the tied copper coins.
