The next day, the weather was overcast.
Jin Lan and Jin Qiao took someone to replace the soiled carpet downstairs early in the morning, and when they saw Mu Yunyao coming downstairs, they couldn't help but say with concern: "Miss, we will rush to work on clothes and the like as soon as possible, you can go back upstairs again. Take a break."
"It's okay, the weather is stuffy and hot, and I can't sleep. I might as well accompany you to do needlework for a while."
After embroidering the skirt of Yueli Zhongxiao's dress, Mu Yunyao rubbed her neck slightly: "Do you know anyone who wants to learn embroidery?"
The female apprentices hurriedly raised their heads: "Miss, we don't dare to spread the embroidery stitch method privately, please rest assured..."
Knowing that they had misunderstood, Mu Yunyao explained, "I'm not blaming, and I don't suspect anything, it's just that the number of people we've seen is too few recently, and you've been working hard all day long, so I thought if there were more people, come here. Helping to share is also good.”
Seeing that their faces were still full of hesitation, Mu Yunyao looked at Jin Lan: "I once heard that you have a younger sister, right?"
"Yes, she was young and was not picked by Mrs. Jin at the time. Fortunately, she was weak and her skeleton did not grow, and she has not been sold in the hands of Renya. A few days ago, our sisters saved some money. , then went to Renyazi to buy people out, and put them outside first."
"She is also twelve years old. She is learning embroidery, and her age is suitable. I believe that your sisters are people. Later, you can bring people over and help with chores. If you have talent, maybe they can surpass you. What about the two of you?"
Jin Lan and Jin Qiao hurriedly stood up and saluted: "Thank you for your kindness, Miss!" "Get up," Mu Yunyao looked at the others again, "If you have suitable candidates, you can also bring them here, but you must choose carefully. However, try not to pick those who think too much, but if something goes wrong, I won't take my anger on you. After all, people are separated from each other.
It is also possible to not see. "
When people come, she will naturally choose them carefully, and it is impossible to use them completely.
"Yes, thank you for your kindness, Miss." Mu Yunyao thought that there were not many people coming, but in the afternoon, when she saw twenty or thirty people gathered in the hall, she couldn't help but be slightly stunned. At the beginning, she studied and studied these embroidery stitches in order to be able to embroider finished products to help her achieve her goals, but she never thought that these skills could be put into the hands of others and could become
depend on survival. There were so many people that Niyunfang couldn't hold it at all. He asked Liuliang to go to the Yaxing, and he bought a yard not far away. The house in the yard was relatively old, but it was not a problem to keep out the wind and rain, Mu Yunyao Arranged these people there, and then let Jin Lan take some ordinary needlework and embroidery
Cloth in the past, first teach them some simple stitches.
Mu Yunyao thought about how to arrange these people, Su Qing came over: "Yao'er, don't let me teach them how to those people?"
"Mother? Your fingers hurt when you pinch the needle and thread. Now that you have raised some, you still can't get tired. I'll arrange these people."
"Just teach them some stitches, talk more and use less hands. Don't worry, my mother is measured, and I will definitely not make myself tired. I have seen your embroidery in these days, and I have seen a lot of it just by looking at it. I will temporarily Teach, if there is something wrong with the teaching, just make corrections."
Seeing Su Qing's resolute expression, Mu Yunyao had no choice but to nod her head: "Alright, my mother will teach them first, but you have to be extra careful. If I find you are tired, I will drive them all out immediately!"
"Okay, I'll listen to you." Su Qing originally sorted out the account book, but after the account book was sorted out, there was nothing to do, and he was idle and bored. Teaching these little girls would be a relief.
And she had seen it just now, some of those little girls were wearing old clothes with patches on top of each other, and they looked like they had a hard family background. Let them learn a skill, and they will not live in misery in the future.
In today's world, it's not easy for women to gain a foothold, especially for some poor families, when their daughters are raised in a careless way, it's just for a sum of money. As for how these girls live after they get married, it has nothing to do with them anymore. , it's really embarrassing.
At the beginning, when Mu Cheng passed away, she was afraid that Yun Yao would also end up like this. She didn't know how long she had been worried. Now that life is better, if she can give them a hand, she will pull them properly. change his life.
In the next few days, in Jingling City, the discussion about Niyunfang gradually subsided. After all, the door has been closed here, and no matter how much curiosity they have, they can't see through the door.
Within two days, another piece of news exploded in Jingling City like a thunderbolt. A farmer entrusted a person to write a letter and sued Tan Lu, the treasurer of Caiyue Pavilion, to the yamen. There are dozens of crimes in total.
Although Caiyue Pavilion has been repeatedly suppressed by Niyunfang during this period, and the limelight is not there, but seriously, it still occupies the name of the first show in Jingling City. If something happened to Caiyue Pavilion, I don’t know how many showrooms cheers.
Jin Lan told Mu Yunyao the news: "Miss, you heard that the shopkeeper of Caiyue Pavilion was accused of being in the yamen..."
Mu Yunyao smiled lightly: "Jin Qiao just came over and said it again, but although the paper is handed over, it is not sure whether it will be successful in the end."
"I heard that the magistrate who is in charge of the trial is Mrs. Chen's husband. Like Mr. Cao, he has an upright temperament. He will definitely find out the truth and severely punish the vicious shopkeeper."
Mrs. Chen bought the pipa clothes for Sitting Talk before. After meeting, she looked much happier than before. She even came over to talk to her at the Qixi Festival banquet. Mrs. Jin also said, half-jokingly, that she had achieved Mrs. Chen's heart.
Mu Yunyao didn't pay attention to the shopkeeper of Caiyue Pavilion deliberately. She had already done everything she had to do. As long as the husband of Mrs. Chen didn't bend the law for personal gain, Caiyue Pavilion would be in bad luck this time.
The fifty people brought by King Yue have already been arranged in Jinxiu Garden, under the temporary management of Qin Steward. She looked for a few places that were being resold, but couldn't find one suitable for opening a tea house.
Jiangnan loves tea, and there are many teahouses in Jingling City. If she can't stand out, this teahouse will be meaningless.
Mu Yunyao pondered whether to go to Jinxiu Garden again, the teahouse is also of great importance to King Yue, and he should ask his opinion anyway.
After all, there is a big flag behind her that can make her talk, but it is not her style to be troubled by a stubborn person. If there is a great way to not walk, but instead to overcome obstacles and thorns, that is stupid! In the Jinxiu Garden, Yu Heng reported to King Yue: "Master, Miss Mu helped the old couple write a letter, instructing them to go to the yamen to file a complaint, and then they did not intervene. However, the subordinates found that the shopkeeper of Caiyue Pavilion was indeed not the Alright, we secretly gave money to us, forced a lot of people to death in private, and occupied a lot of land. If it is really strictly investigated, the Caiyue Pavilion in Jingling City will probably not be able to open."
