Chapter 495 Purchasing Work
Sui Lu brought another furoshiki and packed it for them. Each of them held a big bundle. After thanking the pomegranate with a smile, he was ready to go home.
Ms. Jiang hugged two pieces of cloth and was about to leave, when she heard Pomegranate say: "Fourth aunt, don't worry, I have something else to tell you."
Ms. Jiang paused. Only then did she realize that, yes, Pomegranate asked Qingzao and the others to pick out clothes. They didn’t ask her to come to deliver fabrics. They wanted to see her for something.
"Then let's go first, Pomegranate." Yang Tao said.
Pomegranate nodded.
Qingzao also followed, and she went back to cook first.
Ms. Jiang sat back on the chair again, looked at Pomegranate and said, "Pomegranate, what do you want from me?"
"I want to ask, Brother Hua, his aunt's What is my brother doing now? Is he still doing business in the streets? "
When Jiang heard this, he couldn't help but think about it, is Pomegranate going to arrange work for him?
Ouch!
Last year, the Sheep Workshop expanded its enrollment, and all the people recruited were relatives from various families in the village. Each family had one or two places, so her siblings naturally joined the Sheep Workshop to work.
Originally, she wanted her younger siblings to come too, but her younger brother was walking around the streets and not often at home. She had children to take care of, and her mother-in-law, who had weak legs and feet, was far away. This didn't come.
Fortunately, Zhou Wang, her younger brother from her mother's side, is smart and capable. He has been a salesman for many years, and through her relationship, he bought many gadgets from the wood workshop. Things like jigsaw puzzles are not expensive. He also bought meat floss and other things in the food workshop, and he got all the money he paid for it. He was not afraid of hard work and could go far. In the past two years, he also made some money. He also bought a mule cart so that he could pull the goods farther. Needless to say, walking further is not that difficult.
It’s just that seeing that this child is getting older, if he wants to send him to school, he will have more money to spend. Zhou Wang is homeless all year round, so it is inconvenient to not have a man in the family - if this can achieve anything It is naturally better to have a stable job and make money.
Jiang's mind was spinning rapidly, and he answered: "I'm still walking through the streets! I'm getting farther and farther away. I said I went to Xiangning County in the first half of the year and almost reached Dacheng Mansion. It's windy all day long. "I went there in the rain, and I feel very sorry for my younger brother."
Pomegranate saw her eyes looking at her expectantly, and she couldn't bear it. He stopped laughing and said: "It's like this. I have a purchasing job here. If I want someone I can trust, I think of him immediately. He is Brother Hua'er's cousin's uncle. They are all relatives. How old is he? I have traveled around the streets and dealt with people. I have been to many places, I am familiar with them all, and I have experience.”
Jiang’s face. His smile visibly widened and widened, and the corners of his mouth almost reached the base of his ears. He clapped his hands and said, "Oh, no! We are all relatives. You can rest assured Pomegranate. Zhou Wang will definitely tell you that you can trust him this time." Yes, yes, he has dealt with many people, he is honest and uncompromising, there are so many salesmen, But everyone likes to buy things from him! He has experience, he definitely has experience!”
She didn’t know what she was going to buy, but Jiang made a good comment first, she guessed. It's almost like the uncle, his son, and Rong Song buying pork and eggs for the workshop. Zhou Wang can do this!
Pomegranate can talk about Zhou Wang, so he has carefully investigated it. He nodded immediately and said: "Fourth Aunt, you will meet Aunt Hua tomorrow and ask her to go back and bring a letter. If Zhou Wang If you are willing, let him come to me.”
"Yes! Definitely yes!" Mrs. Jiang slapped her thigh, "It's not dark yet, and I can't wait for tomorrow. Slow down, I'll let Brother Chun go to his grandpa's house right now!"
As he spoke, he stood up and walked out, forgetting even the cloth on the table.
Pomegranate hurriedly stopped her, "It's this hour, and I don't worry about Cousin Chun making a trip. Let Fourth Uncle come with us. We can hitch up a mule cart from the workshop. It can go faster."
"Okay!" Mrs. Jiang happily agreed, hugged the cloth and went home to call for help.
After Li Jigui worked for a day, he lay on the bed and didn't want to move. When he heard that his wife wanted him to go to his father-in-law's house, he was not happy, "If there is something urgent, I have to show up." It's almost dark and cold today. Doesn't his aunt always Tiandu is working at the Yanggongfang? If you have anything to say, can you tell Qingzao to her aunt tomorrow? Go, what, don’t worry Brother Chun will drive the mule cart alone?”
“Driving a mule cart?”
“Yes, Pomegranate let us ride on the mule cart of the workshop, so as to save our legs and feet. Hurry up, this is for Pomegranate, you are here to help. Pull it, be careful, I tell Shiliu to go!” While walking, he reluctantly moved his buttocks. When he heard the words behind him, he got out of bed and said, "I'll go, I'll just go. Don't tell Pomegranate!"
Give He didn't dare to fail to do things with Shiliu's heart. He also wanted Shiliu to be happy and give him a job!
The father and son left in a hurry. Jiang asked Qingzao to cook first, then he took the cloth and went to the third room.
The two families are next to each other, so Mrs. Huang naturally heard the movement in front. She and Guiyuan were looking at the good clothes she had brought back. When she saw Mrs. Jiang coming with the cloth in her arms, her eyes also lit up. , "Why rush to bring it now? It will be the same if you bring it tomorrow."
Ms. Jiang looked at her, who didn't know who it was? If she brought it tomorrow, this sister-in-law would Don't you whisper to her all night?
But he said with a smile: "Let's divide it now, so that I can make the clothes early and wear them during the New Year!"
The two pieces of cloth have different colors. It's better to divide it evenly, and you can make two different clothes.
Mrs. Huang also smiled, "Okay." She took out the scissors and asked Ms. Jiang, "I think I heard Brother Chun going out? It's this time, where are you going?"
Ms. Jiang I happily told the story.
After saying that, I saw that Huang's expression was a little bad. How could I not know what she was thinking?
She was never polite to her, so she said: "Don't think too much about it. Why does Pomegranate favor my mother's family and ignore yours? This job is not suitable for your mother's brother. Besides, it is suitable." , your sister-in-law looks like she doesn’t want money, she can’t do this Where did you dig it out? Who can trust her to leave such a matter to her family?”
After saying this, Huang couldn’t help but think of her mother-in-law’s decision to expand enrollment last year. After entering the sheep workshop, I was doing well, but it has only been a few months? In May, it was discovered that she was secretly returning wool to her home, and it was smoother every time. Fortunately, she was discovered quickly, and the yarn she brought back was enough to knit two pairs of socks, so no big losses were caused. .
But the workshop couldn't tolerate people with unclean hands and feet like this. Even if it was her natal sister-in-law, Shiliu was not merciless at all and just asked her natal sister-in-law to pay her wages and leave.
She doesn’t blame Pomegranate. Pomegranate did the right thing, and she was also embarrassed. Others were nice, but she was Pomegranate’s biological aunt. Someone who came from her relationship actually did such a thing and called her There was no room for his face.
No, now she sees Pomegranate and feels guilty, but Pomegranate doesn’t blame her at all, and still lets Rong Wu be the shopkeeper, and still lets her be the steward of the workshop, and returns it to her Give a hairpin, this is a gift of cloth.
When Jiang mentioned it again, Huang's face turned red. It had been many years since she had been quarreling with Jiang since she was a girl, and it was rare for her to deal with the situation once.
She glanced at Mrs. Jiang, who is the sister-in-law and who is the sibling? When he preached to her, he always said one thing after another. He curled his lips and said, "Okay, okay, I didn't say anything. Pomegranate chose your natal relatives, so they are also your natal relatives. Are you afraid that I will make trouble? I can be This kind of person?”
After saying that, he changed his subject, "Just cut it from here. See how it looks. Tighten it, don't cut it badly..."
Ms. Jiang glanced at her, smiled, and was serious. Cut the cloth with her.
