Chapter 178: Workshop opened

Chapter 178 The workshop opens

"You!" Gu Yumei failed to find fault with Gu Jinli, and was even beaten and beaten by Gu Jinli. She was so angry that she almost fainted, but no one helped her.

Ms. Chen was still gloating at the sidelines: "You can't win over others, and you can't beat them if they beat you. If you insist on finding trouble, the only one who will be angry is yourself."

Gu Yumei burst into tears when she heard Chen's words: "Uuuuuuuuuuuu, you are all bullying me!"

Gu Jinli smiled: "What great ability do you have that makes us jealous enough to bully you? Don't flatter yourself. If you don't work in the fields today, our family will almost forget what you look like." .”

Gu Jinli was telling Gu Yumei that she was worthless, not even worthy of being bullied by them.

Gu Yumei heard it and almost fainted from anger.

Yan Shi and Jin Niu were also planting bean sprouts. Seeing Gu Yumei crying miserably, she comforted her: "Sister Mei, don't cry. It's not tiring to plant soybeans. We have little land, and we can finish the planting in two days of hard work."



Gu Yumei cried even harder.

The third grandma frowned and said dissatisfiedly: "Sister Mei, shut up now. How long have you been crying for, are you not tired?"

Gu Jinli said: "Third Grandma, please leave her alone and let her cry. It's busy farming now and everyone is working in the fields. Her crying method will definitely be seen by others. It won't be long before she is crying in the fields." The story will spread throughout the village, and it will be her who will be the one to laugh at it."

Gu Yumei loves face and cannot bear to be criticized. When she heard this, she immediately stopped crying.

 Seemingly knowing that there was no point in crying, after eating the lunch sent by Brother Fa, he worked conscientiously in the afternoon.

The family worked hard for two days and finally planted all the wasteland with soybean seedlings.

He Laoguo saw them planting soybeans like this and asked out of curiosity: "Brother Gu, why are you guys planting soybeans like this? It's so troublesome. Why don't you just sow the seeds?"

Grandpa San said: “This is the way we grow soybeans in our hometown. If we grow soybeans this way, the yield can be increased a lot.”

Grandpa San didn’t want the villagers to think that Gu Jinli was an outlier, so he said that the method of transplanting and planting soybeans was his hometown’s method. Anyway, they came here to escape famine, and it was impossible for the villagers to go to the northwest to check.

Farmers care most about food. He Laoguo and the others were very excited when they heard that transplanting soybeans can increase yields. But they were afraid of the risks and did not immediately switch to this method to grow soybeans. They wanted to see first and if the Qin Gu Luotian family's soybean production really increased during harvest, they would switch to this method next year.

 After planting soybeans, Gu Jinli started planting medicinal materials.

Gu Dashan and Mr. Cui had never grown medicinal herbs before, so he was afraid that she would mess up the matter, so he only gave her an acre of wasteland.

 She planted half an acre of patchouli. Huoxiang harvests medicinal materials every year. She plants these easy-to-harvest medicinal materials first so that her family can see the benefits. When the medicinal materials are planted in large areas in the future, her family will not object.

 In the remaining half acre of land, she planted many kinds of medicinal materials, which she dug in the mountains, such as cattail, Dipsacus, and Pinellia ternata, etc.

Three grandfathers, Gu Dashan, Gu Jinan, and He Sanleizi followed her for a day and finished planting all the medicinal materials.

At this point, the farming of several families has come to an end, and it is March 12th, and in four days it will be the big day for the opening of the workshop. This evening, several families gathered together to talk about the opening of the workshop.

“He Laoguo and the other four have agreed to work in our workshop and will come to sign a contract with us tomorrow. However, the manpower is still a little short, and we still have to hire people.”

“But don’t worry, we can open a workshop and visit people at the same time. We must invite people with good nature, but not those with bad intentions.”

When the third grandfather said this, he took the opportunity to say: "We have grown-up girls and boys in our family, and there are still people who have lost their wives and want to remarry. You can't rush to find someone else. You have to keep your eyes open and see clearly. Don't worry. As a villain, let your good girl be found by others, and don't let your boy marry a house-wanderer and ruin our business."

The Third Grandpa would specifically say this because Gu Dewang told Gu Jinli that Gu Yumei was plotted by He Cuier with a handkerchief and almost became a stepmother.

Although Gu Dafu's family kept this matter under wraps, they also specifically told the Gu Dewang brothers not to tell anyone about it, as it would ruin Gu Yumei's reputation and make her unable to find a good husband in the future.

But Gu Dewang has been hanging out with Gu Jinli recently and feels that Sister Xiaoyu is better than Sister Yumei. She never scolds him like Sister Yumei and often gives him snacks, so he told Gu Jinli about it.

 Gu Jinli knew that those people wanted to marry them so that they could work in the workshops, or rely on their relatives to get tofu and spices from their families.

She was very shameless about this practice, and there were many grown-up girls and boys in her family, as well as those whose wives died on the way to escape and wanted to remarry, so she had to guard against it, so she told the third grandfather about this matter. Having said that, this is what Third Grandpa said just now.

When the family members heard what Third Grandpa said, they were puzzled at first. After thinking about it for a moment, they understood the danger and their hearts suddenly became frightened.

Especially Gu Dafu, his sister Mei almost fell into the trap of the villain and said quickly: "Don't worry, Third Uncle, we have remembered this and we will definitely not find random homes for the children."

Lao Yan was looking for a new wife for Gu Dalin recently. When he heard what Third Grandpa said, he was shocked and said quickly: "Don't worry, Third Uncle, our family is not in a hurry and will take care of the children."

Dalin’s daughter-in-law, Xie, was kidnapped by those evil people when she was fleeing famine. She didn’t know whether she was alive or dead. Even if she was still alive, she was badly abused. Lao Yan was thinking about finding a new wife for Dalin, but now that he heard what Third Grandpa said, he didn't dare to find a wife for Dalin so quickly.

Anyway, life at home is getting better and better. Although Dalin is remarrying, he is not afraid of not being able to marry a good girl.

 Gu Dalin breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't really want to marry his bride. After all, it was him who failed to protect Ms. Xie, and that's why she was captured by the villain.

After Third Grandpa told several families about this matter, they all knew what was going on. Then someone came up to them and said, "That girl from that family is nice, that boy from that family is nice, and I want to marry them." When they asked questions, they became wary and would not follow what those people said.

Those who wanted to rely on marriage to work in the Gu family's workshop and get tofu and spices were very angry when they saw that they did not accept the offer.

Gu Jinli and the others didn't care whether they were angry or not, they were just happily preparing for the opening of the workshop.

Shang Xiucai knew that their workshop was going to open on March 16th, so he specially wrote a plaque, "Gu's Workshop", covered it with red cloth, and asked Lao Luo to send it to the Gu family, and wait until March 16th to unveil the plaque and open the workshop.

Xuanhufang also delivered the spices and raw materials that Gu Jinli requested. Bags of spices and raw materials were moved off the mule cart and placed at Gu Jinli's house.
