Shao Sanlang nodded and kept speaking highly of his wife’s good looks.
Yang Xiaoni felt bashful. Her cheeks were flushed but her eyes were sparkling, and she smiled brightly.
Ms. Fang did not look at them while the rest pretended not to have seen the whole episode.
The couple had always been like this and the rest of the family was used to it by now.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThree days later, Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan went to the Zhang Village with the required money.
They finalized the deal with Ding Erzhu, Ms. Zhou, Ms. Zhou’s mother, Land Officer and his wife regarding opening the barren land.
All the villagers at the Zhang Village were glad about this project and almost every household applied to work on it. So, they were divided into two batches and took turns in doing the labor work.
The Land Officer received a huge red packet and he was highly motivated. He said that he was going to watch over everybody so that nobody would get lazy during the work hours.
Hearing that there would be an even bigger red packet after the project was done, the Land Officer became even more delighted.
Qiao Xuan smiled. “We would need many more laborers for our tea mountains. Work hard and we will hire more people! Those who don’t work hard would have to be excluded, and we would hire people from other villages…”
The Land Officer nodded. “Don’t worry, we are all down-to-earth people and we will work hard. I will get rid of those sneaky ones for you!’
The Land Officer and his wife felt energized and devoted when he heard that there would be more money to make in the future. The wife was going to be in charge of making steamed buns, and she would be able to take a few more since she was in charge.
That was such a great deal that should not be let go of.
No one would allow anyone to make trouble about this.
Most of the workers were those who needed such temporary tasks.
Seeing that Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan were able to afford the land, they suspected that they had some mysterious and powerful supporters behind their back, thus not daring to cause trouble for them.
So soon, the work started full-fledgedly at Zhang Village.
The first morning was a bit chaotic, but at noon everyone queued up and got to eat steamed buns. Not only were they big, but the meaty buns were really full of meat when they took a bite. Everyone finally believed that the owner didn’t lie, and the wages must be the same. So they were definitely going to work hard to earn the extra red packets of bonuses!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThey worked obediently and occasionally, there were a few who got lazy but before Ding Erzhu and the Land Officer’s son reprimanded them and everyone slowly straightened out.
Everything went well. No chaos appeared, generally speaking.
Steamed buns were steamed on a temporary stove in front of Ding Erzhu’s house. Needless to say, the seven working women and their children who came to have fun ate together at noon. Also, the other children came to the stove as well around lunchtime.
They were all drooling for the steamed buns by the time they were cooked.
Not every household was able to afford to eat steamed buns like these.
Qiao Xuan wasn’t an unscrupulous person. Although the flour used to make steamed buns was not the best, it was still quite good. The authentic flour was steamed in a big steamer, and it gave out a strong fragrance.
The Land Officer’s wife did not want to offend the fellow villagers, so she could not do anything about the situation. She could not even drive away people who were queuing up for the steamed buns.
Ms. Zhou was not capable of turning them down alone.
But Ms. Zhou’s mother used a huge basket to hold steamed buns and rolls and gave them to each child until the basket was emptied. Those who failed to get the steamed buns could queue up the next day..
