Chapter 709
Erlang and Erlang's daughter-in-law replied with a blushing face, "It's right for us to share the worries of our family, grandma."
Yuan Chunhua and Xu Laoer were also very happy.
This new daughter-in-law is a hard-working person who is willing to take the initiative to do the dirty work as soon as she enters the house.
How tiring it is to raise pigs! How dirty!
The little daughter-in-law doesn't mind, she takes the initiative to share the family's worries when she comes in, and takes it upon her shoulders. Regardless of whether it's hard work or not, this is a good idea.
The daughter-in-law and her husband are both satisfied.
The matter was settled just like that.
Then, Mrs. Xu Zhang asked Xu Jiaojiao, "Jiaojiao, how much does it cost to hire a boy in the city per month? If it's too expensive, let's hire one in the country!"
Xu Jiaojiao said, "It doesn't cost much to hire a boy. It's two to three hundred cash a month, or even two hundred cash to provide food and drink."
"The price is not expensive, but it's better for this person to know the basics. It would be bad if he was bribed to put some spices in our wine, or was careless enough to hide some wine and drink it back.
You must not have the intention of harming others, and you must have the intention of guarding against others..." Mrs. Xu Zhang muttered.
Xu Jiaojiao seemed to have a candidate after hearing the meaning of her words, "Mom, please help recommend someone who knows the basics. You have the final say."
It is naturally the best if it is used by people who know the basics.
Qingxi Xujiu is so popular, it is really risky to recruit people from outside.
As Mrs. Xu Zhang said, if you are not lucky, it is not uncommon to attract ghosts, ghosts, and snake gods.
After all, even my own family member, Xu Laosi, had some evil thoughts before.
It's even harder for outsiders to say.
Xu Zhang pondered for a moment, "I think Qiulan's son is still in the middle. Just like his mother, he is honest and hard-working. He is not too old. He is twelve or thirteen years old. He can just be a boy. Let me ask Qiu Lan.
If Lan is willing, let her son go to the county town to help the third child..."
Xu Jiaojiao raised her eyebrows, Duan Qiulan?
She had the impression that there were only a few female members working in the winery.
Moreover, she and her third brother have been childhood sweethearts since childhood, and they are also the biological aunts of the future fifth sister-in-law... She knows everything about her.
"Okay, I seem to have some impression of that boy. He often brings her food. Is he that tall, shy boy?"
Xu Zhang smiled and nodded, "That's him, his name is Huzi. His hands and feet are numb, he has the head of a tiger, and he is much taller than an ordinary child. He should be very strong, and he should be able to be a boy. He was there before.
I begged her several times, saying that I wanted to work in our winery and help her mother with her work for free. I felt sorry for her mother, but I didn’t agree. Didn’t you often say that the winery should maintain an environment that would not let idle people wander around?
If you enter casually, I will go talk to her mother tomorrow and it will most likely be feasible."
"Okay, mother, let's take care of the arrangements."
Xu Jiaojiao agreed.
She was used to letting go of the shopkeeper. Mrs. Xu Zhang was someone she trusted unconditionally. The people she picked were more reliable than those she picked herself.
After talking about the boy at the liquor store in the county, Mrs. Xu Zhang returned to the issue of her own pig pen.
I gave Erlang and his wife a lot of explanations.
Then there is the issue of the Chinese New Year coming soon and the big fat pigs coming out of the slaughterhouse.
It's time to harvest.
This is an important source of wealth for the old Xu family. The adults and children are all looking forward to selling the big fat pig for some money, so that the old Xu family can buy more land.
With the land, the whole family feels more secure and feels more at ease.
All year round, adults and children work from dawn to dusk to weed pigs, cook pig food, feed pigs, clean up pig manure, etc., without stopping for a day, watching the little piglets grow up day by day, becoming stronger and fatter.
These are not pigs, these are just free money, and these are the fields that the country people depend on for their survival.
Xu Zhang said, "Last year, the fourth child took the lead in driving the pigs to be sold, and the old man followed him to see it. This year, both of them were useless. Let the second and fifth brothers take care of the pigs. They can be more detailed."
You don’t need to find a buyer this year, just send last year’s pigs to the pig farm, Jiaojiao, do you think there’s anything wrong with it?”
Xu Jiaojiao replied, "There is no problem. It's just that Fifth Brother has too many things to do. It's the end of the year. Not to mention the wines listed on the Gold List, the orders for other wines have also increased greatly. Fifth Brother is too busy at the kiln and winery.
, the second brother can’t use much effort, I think it’s better to let Liao Qing and Erlang do it. Liao Qing also went to the pig farm last year and is familiar with it. When the time comes, he will teach Erlang together, and he will sell pigs every year in the future.
, Erlang can just go there alone."
Xu Youde shook his head repeatedly, "No, no, how can it be possible? Liao Qing is now the head of the scholar's case, how can he do such a rough and dirty job? The scholar is a gentle and refined person, and it can be done by letting others do it. Liao Qing does not need to intervene in this
kind of thing."
Liao Qing said, "Dad, you are overthinking. What kind of scholar is not a scholar? I am from the old Xu family. I can do any kind of work. Before I became a scholar, I could pick pig manure and lift pigs.
If I become a scholar, will I be gilded? I am not so noble, so you should treat me as the same as before. If you look at me differently, I still have thoughts in my heart. You are treating me not as a member of the family, but as an outsider.
.”
It's rare for Liao Qing to be able to explain such a comprehensive matter.
In fact, I have to explain it.
Since he was convicted of the scholar case, the attitude of the villagers in the neighboring villages towards him has been different.
Including Lao Xu’s family.
The children looked at him with admiration, and the adults looked at him as if they were looking at an official, and they were polite to him in everything.
This feeling made Liao Qing very unaccustomed.
Xu Jiaojiao also smiled and said, "That's right, Dad, he is just a scholar, and there is no gold coating on his body, so why can't he be used around him? Feel free to use him, not to mention that he is just a scholar now, even if he is really a scholar in the future.
Even if you are elected and become an official, he will still call you daddy, he will still listen to you, and you will still give your orders. Mom, you are the same, so you don’t have to be polite to him."
When the couple said this, everyone laughed.
The atmosphere became relaxed.
Mrs. Xu Zhang also smiled and said, "I just said that my son-in-law Liao Qing is a good young man and has no choice. If it had been anyone else, I don't know where he would have gone. I'm not telling you that in the past, the boss was a scholar.
, his eyes grew to the top of his head in a few days, and he was just an ordinary scholar. A scholar like our Liao Qing, who is the head of the case, is down-to-earth, with no sign of being frivolous. He is really a good boy, okay, then
This year, you will take Erlang to sell pigs..."
To be honest, Mrs. Xu Zhang has lost her mind.
