Chapter 89

Of course, the salary is not one dollar a month, but three dollars a month.

After discussing with Xu Ying and Yu Xiaoqian, Xu Qing asked Xu Ying to make a false report to grandma Xu. She saved the extra money to make a dowry in the future. Yu Xiaoqian also said that she would keep it secret and would not let others know their real salary.

As for the places where other people work, Xu made arrangements early in the morning.

Among the ten women recruited today, Xu Qing and Li Jinmei took them to the small ancestral hall next to the ancestral hall in the village.

This small ancestral hall is usually used as a place for marriage, funeral, birthday, happiness and so on. Because it is a bit shabby, no one has used it for a long time.

There are tables, stools and stoves inside, and a well outside.

Two days ago, this small ancestral hall was rented by Xu Qing and had it repaired and cleaned. Now it looks brand new and clean.

Yu Xiaoqian and Xu Ying also came, they gave each of the ten people two sets of work clothes, teach them how to wear.

Because people here taboo wearing white things, so Xu Qing used light blue cloth.

The overalls are divided into coats, trousers, half aprons, cloth shoes, sleeves, hats and masks. They are all made to order by Xu Qing with a tailor, and each piece is marked with a number.

"When we come here to do business, we have to change into these clothes. We are making food for our guests. We must ensure that it is clean and hygienic." Xu Qing said to them, "take a bath, wash your hair and wash your hands frequently every day. Before doing things every day, you should use soap horn to clean your hands. You can't leave too long nails. You should also clean the cracks between your nails. Do you know?"

Everyone looked at their fingernails. They had to do farm work every day. There was almost mud in their fingernails.

"We know. We must clean it." Mrs. Li said, and the others nodded.

Although Xu Qing demands a lot, it's not a troublesome thing. It's easy to do.

And the material of this suit is really good. It's soft and breathable. It's the best to keep your clothes clean.

Xu Qing then divided the people into three groups and told them what to do and what to pay attention to one by one.

The three little women are responsible for boiling and peeling beans every day. They calculate their wages by Jin. It's very simple. Once they are proficient, they can start soon.

Xu Qing also said, "the peeled beans and their skins should be packed separately in these big bamboo baskets. In the morning, I have to make enough of what I want, and then send them to my home. Is that ok?"

The three nodded.

"I'll pay you by the catty, once a day. If you can make enough of what I need before noon every day for a month, I'll give each of you an extra 20 Wen at the end of the month."

The three little women were even happier to hear that there was a bonus, but some people asked, "can't we come this afternoon?"

"Don't come for the time being. It's not very cool now. It's hard to keep too much. When winter comes, you can do as much as you want."

The three immediately nodded with a smile.

For the five people who prepare food materials, Xu Qing's requirements are almost the same, and the five people do different things. They basically settle their wages according to their portions, and give them what they do.

The last two cleaning, Xu Qing gave them more strict requirements.

"The small ancestral hall must be kept clean all the time, and there should be no mess. If other people don't take good care of their health, spit and throw things, you should remind them that if they don't change their ways after repeated education, tell me that I will expel them."

Although some words do not understand, but they both understand the meaning of Xu Qing, cautiously nodded: "I know."

"You should not only clean up, but also clean all the pots and pans they used. Try to use soap and hot water. In addition, after you change your work clothes every day, you should wash them and dry them well and put them away according to the number. These clothes are not allowed to be worn out and taken out. Everyone remembers their own number and can't mix them up. "

"Yes."

Other people were listening, feeling that Xu Qingzhen loved to be clean, and of course, they firmly remembered her words.

Xu Qing said: "everyone will stay in their own area to do things. I will find someone to fence the courtyard outside. At that time, a rainproof shed will be set up on the well to draw water and wash things. Finally, don't let others come in. I will definitely deduct money if I mess up or lose things. Especially for children, they can play in the shed in the yard, but they are not allowed to come into the house! "

The crowd nodded.

"I've written down the rest of the notes on the board and hung them up. You can see for yourself. There's nothing to do today. It's going to start tomorrow. I'll go back early after reading. I'll go back to cook, too."

Xu Qing left first.

After Xu Qing left, these people suddenly felt that the air around them was light, and the just inexplicable atmosphere did not dare to make a sound.

Li Jinmei said with a smile: "I come to open the door and close the doors and windows sooner or later every day. If you come and find that the door hasn't been opened, you can come to my house to get the key."When people heard this, they began to talk. On the one hand, they said that your brother and daughter-in-law were really wonderful. On the other hand, they said that the clothes were made of good materials, neat and beautiful.

At this time, Li Shu and Li Jing came in carrying two burden bricks.

"What is this for?" A woman asked curiously.

"Ah Qing said that one stove is not enough. You need to repair two more. At least four pots will be enough for you." Uncle Li explained with a smile.

The women also laughed, nodded and said, "that's true."

Xu Qing went to pick up Li Tinghui and Xiao Meizi for dinner. People here didn't have the habit of having lunch. When they were hungry, they usually drank porridge or ate Wotou pancakes. Only those with better family circumstances would have a meal at noon.

The children in the school don't go home at noon, either. They can be sent away by a Wotou or a pancake.

According to Xu Qing's habit, the lunch is the main meal, so we must eat delicious and full.

She fried sliced meat with green and red peppers, made tomato and egg soup, and finally cooked a fish.

People here don't even eat tomatoes. It's so outrageous. When she accidentally found the seeds of tomatoes, Xu Qing couldn't believe her good luck. She was as surprised as she found butter.

Each of the two little guys was full with a bowl of rice. After eating and drinking enough, xiaomeizi took her brother's hand to school and asked Xu Qing not to give it away.

Xu Qing put the food into the space, and she and Li Changting ate it directly in the space.

In the morning, Li Changting collected the mature mung beans, red beans and soybeans in the soil, turned over the soil and planted new seeds.

Because the place is not big and the seed quality is average, the beans that can be harvested are very limited, but the beans that can be planted are very watery. They are much better than those sold outside. Xu Qing plans to keep them all and make them seeds to see if he can improve the varieties.
