Chapter 200 Wife Training
Seeing Liu's ignorant look, Zhou Changjiang's face turned dark.
In the past, I only knew that my daughter-in-law was ignorant, but I didn't expect that she would show a cold face in front of my parents. This shows that she simply doesn't take her elders seriously.
"Is this what you, as a sister-in-law, should say?"
"Why shouldn't I have said anything? As her sister-in-law, I'm wrong to ask her to use less."
Liu was completely unaware of her mistake. She was already dissatisfied, and when her own man did that to her, she felt even more dissatisfied and straightened her neck.
Zhou Changjiang looked at her and was immediately furious. "Are you teaching me?"
Liu was about to say something, but Zhou Changjiang cut her off with a look and continued, "Third sister-in-law paid back the money she owed you. Not only did she pay it back, she also forgave you for your previous mistakes. She taught you the craft, let you manage the tofu-making work, and even paid you every day. What exactly are you dissatisfied with?"
Liu was choked and lowered her head, not daring to speak again, but her face still showed an unconvinced look.
Zhou Changjiang knew what she meant, so he said directly, "If you have any complaints about my third sister-in-law, you can stop being the tofu maker and stop taking the wages. You can't give back your skills, so you should compensate my third sister-in-law. Once you've done all this, you can stop using your crooked logic."
Hearing this, Liu instantly shrank into a quail, and this time she really didn't dare to say anything.
The two old people at the table just looked at them without saying anything, eating slowly, and at the same time did not forget to pick up food for the children.
The children were no longer at the age where they didn't know anything, but since the adults didn't say anything, they naturally didn't dare to speak. They just ate their food obediently, and soon their mouths were full of oil.
Bai Zhizhi was also eating with gusto. Although she kept her eyes on the two of them, her chopsticks never stopped moving.
Seeing that the two of them had finished, she cleared her throat and said with a smile, "Then let me say a few words?"
Except for Liu who didn't dare to speak, everyone else naturally had no objection.
Bai Zhizhi briefly explained what she had been thinking about over the past few days.
"Our family business only has a few items to begin with. Now the weather is getting colder and the New Year is approaching, so there are not many wild apricots and walnuts left on the mountain.
Judging from the recent situation of people from the village coming to deliver goods, even if there is still some, it probably won’t last long.
When there is nothing left on the mountain, apricots and walnuts, two related foods, will no longer be available, and the corresponding businesses will be cut short. By then, only dried tofu will be left at home.
Although I have negotiated a new doll business today, this one is different from the others. It is a delicate job that requires skills, and my family definitely can't help me."
After Bai Zhizhi finished speaking, she glanced in Liu's direction as if unintentionally.
After all, she and her second sister-in-law are the only two people in the family who can run the doll business. She is responsible for drawing new blueprints, and her second sister-in-law is responsible for making the things according to the blueprints. It is estimated that other people can't help at all.
Apart from anything else, apricots and walnuts are the mainstay of the family business. If these two products are cut off, the family's income will be greatly reduced.
If you still want to make money, you have to think of other ideas.
Bai Zhizhi had actually been thinking about it for several days, and if it weren't for this sudden incident today, she might not have said it out loud.
But it's just the right time to say it now, so that everyone in the family can also get anxious.
Bai Zhizhi's words were very clear. The family members were not stupid and quickly understood the meaning. Soon, a look of melancholy appeared on their faces.
Even the aroma of beef could not dispel the gloom in my heart.
"It's definitely a thing."
Old Master Zhou was the first to speak, but he only said this one sentence and nothing else.
How could he have any ideas in his mind? If there really was a way, their family would not have been poor for so many years.
The others were naturally in the same situation. They could only look anxious and didn't even have time to eat.
"What should we do? If it really doesn't work, my brother and I will go to the city to find work."
