"Girl, if you have any instructions, just tell me. I can help you or not!" Chunhua said.
“I want to set up a handicraft workshop, but now I don’t have enough people.
I want to choose a few more people in the village who can do handicrafts just like Dahua Xiaohua.
Miss Chunhua is very skilled and has a good eye for me like my grandmother, so I want Miss Chunhua to help me choose a candidate. "
"What's so difficult about this!" Chunhua agreed immediately, "I can tell whether this person's craftsmanship is good or not with just a few glances!"
Ye Luoxin had already planned this matter.
Last time Xiao Jing said that Confucius wanted to set up a girls' class in the village, and that's when she had an idea.
She wanted to discuss with Confucius and use the school's territory to set up an embroidery class.
Study time is fixed every afternoon.
Anyone who wants to learn, regardless of age, can come and give it a try.
After selecting suitable people, they can come to work in her handicraft workshop.
Originally, she wanted Dahua to teach her, but Dahua was timid and took a long time to get used to it.
Now with spring flowers, this problem is solved.
"A novice earns thirty cents a day, and a skilled one earns eighty cents a day!"
Ye Luoxin went to Li Zheng, told Li Zheng her thoughts, and then discussed the wages she had set.
For craftsmen, wages can be slightly higher.
Li Zheng listened carefully and smiled from ear to ear.
"Let me tell you, your Xiao family must have a way to make money with the people in the village! Your father didn't dare to promise me last time, so I have to go back and ask!
According to you, not only men can make money now, but women can also make money!
It’s good for women to make money! Good! "
Ye Luoxin seemed to think something was wrong when she heard this and said, "Uncle Li Zheng, haven't you heard? Women can hold up half the sky! Some jobs can only be done by women, so some money can only be earned by women!"
"Yes!" Li Zheng said quickly: "I understood it when I saw the Hui Ru people. This woman is sometimes even better than the men! When the class starts, I want my daughter to learn it too!"
Hearing what Li Zheng said, Ye Luoxin was a little satisfied.
At least he is not a stubborn person who thinks that women must support their husbands and raise children.
After the matter was settled, Li Zheng went to communicate with Confucius, and he told the whole village.
Confucius clapped his hands in agreement, and quickly set the time, just three days later!
On the day when the class started, even Ye Luoxin didn't expect that so many people would come!
The classroom that could originally accommodate 40 people was overcrowded, and there were more than 70 people including the eldest girl and daughter-in-law from the village.
Ye Luoxin did not prepare so much cloth and needlework, so she divided the people into two groups.
"Forty people will be reserved for today. Those who don't have seats will come back tomorrow!"
It is the first time for Chunhua to give a lecture to everyone.
She didn't expect that the young lady would implement what she casually agreed to so quickly.
The old lady also didn't expect that when she arrived in Qingshan Village, she, the wife of the Hou Mansion, lived in seclusion, but the maid next to her would be in the limelight!
She was very angry.
But Ye Luoxin said that only those who are good at needlework can take this class. She has no understanding of this matter in her life, so she has no choice but to endure it.
Chunhua was very nervous. Before entering the classroom, her hands were shaking so much that she couldn't even hold a needle.
In the end, she was scolded by the old lady before she calmed down.
"Let me tell you, everyone knows that you are mine, and if you mess up, you will slap my Marquis in the face!
Is it still a small scene for me to take you out to meet you? This is not stable, so give up your position as a maid to someone else. "
After being scolded, Chunhua was heartbroken!
I am not even afraid of dignitaries, how can I be afraid of these villagers?
So she was really not afraid anymore!
Fortunately, what we are going to talk about today is also the simplest embroidery thing, and she is very skilled at it.
Chunhua is responsible for giving lectures, while Qiuyue and Xia Chan are responsible for helping her.
In addition to them, there are also big flowers and small flowers coming to help.
After the spring flower demonstration, several people inspected it below.
If they make a mistake, they will point it out. If they really don’t know how, they can demonstrate it themselves.
"This is how your hands should be!"
"The needle can't pass through here, it has to be inserted like this!"
"Be careful not to scratch the fabric!"
All four of them were very patient.
When explaining to everyone, they are also very skillful.
Everyone in the village basically knows Dahua and Xiaohua.
Everyone still remembers what happened to the Zhao family back then.
Da Hua and Xiao Hua were sold to the Xiao family as servants. Everyone originally thought they were pitiful.
But now I see that Dahua Xiaohua is not only well-fed and well-clothed, but also a master who teaches needlework, which is really enviable!
"They two are so happy! There's nothing wrong with being a servant!" a girl thought.
Time passed quickly, and before a single flower was finished, two hours passed.
Chunhua's mouth was already dry, and she was really not optimistic about the situation of the women in the village.
"Everyone, take the fabric and needle and thread back, think about it yourself, and finish the rest. When we go to class the day after tomorrow, I will check the progress of your embroidery." Chunhua said.
Everyone dispersed, but some who didn't understand stayed in place to ask about basic acupuncture techniques.
While Qiuyue and the others were answering, Chunhua shook her head at Ye Luoxin.
"Too bad! When will I learn this!"
Ye Luoxin glanced at the scene and said softly: "Originally, it was not to teach everyone, we just selected the most spiritual or skilled people.
As for other things you want to learn, you can stay and learn slowly. As for whether they can succeed in learning, it also depends on their own abilities. "
After hearing this, Chunhua had a clear idea.
There were only three people who looked okay today.
I hope there will be more suitable ones among the villagers tomorrow.
"Hui Ruren! It's great that you haven't left yet. I have something else I want to discuss with you."
Ye Luoxin and Chunhua were talking when they suddenly heard voices coming from the door.
She turned around and saw that it was Master Zhou.
After Master Zhou came to the village, he had been concentrating on teaching and seldom went out. Ye Luoxin saw him very rarely.
Last time Ye Luoxin was awarded a reward, Master Zhou and Master Kong came to congratulate him together at night.
"What's the matter, Mr. Zhou?" Ye Luoxin quickly replied.
"It's about your younger brother. Hui Ruren might as well move on and I'll explain it to you in detail."
Master Zhou said and looked around the room.
Ye Luoxin also followed the eyes of Master Zhou and looked over.
Everyone in the room was focused on the needlework, and only Dahua seemed to glance over.
But after catching a glimpse of Master Zhou's gaze, she immediately lowered her head.
Ye Luoxin didn't take it seriously.
She followed Master Zhou out of the classroom, stood in the corridor outside, and asked, "What's wrong with Xiao Jing?"
