Shu Yu got up to go out. Just as she walked to the kitchen door, she saw that the courtyard door was open.
The old lady and Daya came back with food boxes. The two of them looked very happy, as if they had encountered something good.
Seeing Shu Yu, Daya walked a few steps faster and said excitedly to her, “Yu, we have business again. Just now, when I went to deliver the food with
Grandmother, we happened to meet a few people who wanted to buy that doll. However, we didn’t have any more, so they agreed to delay it for a day and come back tomorrow to buy it. Grandmother and I decided to work harder today and rush those dolls out first.”
Fortunately, she had washed a portion of the rags early in the morning. The sun was not, and it should be dried by night.
As she spoke, Daya had already looked at the rags on the drying rack. They were indeed in a half-dried state.
She turned her head and said to Shu Yu, “Yu, tell us a few more beautiful patterns. We…”
Before she could finish her sentence, she saw Lu Sanzhu and Madam Liang walking out of the kitchen.
Daya was stunned for a moment, and then she said, “Uncle, Aunt? When did you guys arrive?
“We came early in the morning.” Lu Sanzhu jogged over to the old lady and said with a flattering smile, “Mother, you’re back? Are you tired? Come, come, come. I’ll pour you a glass of water to drink. Have a seat inside first.” The old lady looked at him in horror. What was wrong with her third son?
She looked at Shu Yu suspiciously, and the latter shrugged.
Madam Liang had already run over and reached out to massage the old lady’s back.
However, Madam Liang was someone who couldn’t hold in her true intentions. She started to ask soon after, “Mother, I heard from Yu that we have a job opening that’s easy and pays me. Is that right? I don’t know what kind of work it is, but Mother, don’t worry. I’ll definitely do it well.”
The old lady suddenly understood their strange behavior. She knew it. If one were to curry favor for no reason, one would either be a traitor or a thief.
However, the two came at the right time. The ready-to-wear clothes shop had several orders to cover, so the old lady could use some help.
Therefore, the old lady did not make things difficult for Madam Liang. She just nodded and said, “There is indeed a job for you, but I have to say it first. If you don’t do well, I will find my oldest daughter-in-law. There will definitely be many people fighting for this kind of job.”
Madam Liang immediately sat upright and nodded obediently. “I understand, I understand. I will definitely do my best. Then, the salary…”
The old lady’s eyelids twitched. Why was this worrisome person so stupid? Was she only interested in that little money?
The old lady turned her head and said to Daya, “Bring the doll that you made this morning. Since she’s already here, we can hurry up and start working.” Madam Liang blinked, and Daya brought over the doll that she had sewn.
Madam Liang looked it up and down. It was actually quite good-looking.
“Mother, are we going to do this?”
“Yes, come closer. I’ll tell you in detail how to do it.” The old lady was quite imposing. Not only did Madam Liang move closer, but even Lu Sanzhu curiously pricked up his ears and moved closer.
In fact, it was not difficult to make dolls. Other than Shu Yu, who was really not talented, most people could make them.
The only difficult part was how to make the doll cute and likeable.
Madam Liang was actually quite smart. After taking a few glances, she easily got the hang of it.
After a while, the old lady nodded in satisfaction. “Not bad. Then, you can stay here and continue sewing this afternoon..”
