"Godmother, stop pretending. You must have a complete solution to this matter. If you continue to act like this, you will be lying. Solid food, let's talk about the big plan of opening a workshop to make money. Men are just clouds."
"Do you dare to say this in front of your husband in the future?" Hong Gu looked at Ji Qingyao's eyes full of teasing.
"There's nothing to be afraid of. Although he and I have received the marriage certificate, we haven't had a wedding ceremony or a wedding ceremony yet, so we can't be considered a couple in the true sense. Even if we are a real couple, I won't be a dodder who depends on a man to live. flower"
Honggu felt relieved when she heard that Ji Qingyao said that she only received a marriage certificate, not a wedding ceremony, or a bridal chamber. There are not many men these days who don't hug each other, not to mention that the man was still in the military camp, and she was also afraid that the girl would be harmed. Trust no one.
"You girl, you really dare to say anything. Now that we are the only two here, you can just say it. You still have to be careful when you say these things outside, so as not to be criticized by others. This world is unfair to women. "As a woman, you must obey your father before you get married, your husband when you get married, and your son after your husband's death. You are not the one who regards men as your heaven. Only a little girl like you can say that you have to live on your own."
Ji Qingyao knew that Hong Gu was right, but she lived in an era of equality between men and women. She grew up under the red flag and lived in the spring breeze. In an era when women could hold up half the sky, she couldn't agree with the ancient rules and regulations on women. But superficial work still has to be done.
"Godmother, there are only two of you and me here, so my daughter will say such things boldly. In front of outsiders, my daughter will definitely put away her water chestnuts and become an ordinary farm girl."
"Hey, you kid, come on, let's not talk about these embarrassing things, let's talk about your delicious food."
…
The mother and daughter talked for almost an hour in the cave. Finally, under Honggu's force, Ji Qingyao agreed to accept 40% of the soap's profits and also talked about building a workshop in Xiaoxi Village. After all matters were finalized, Ji Qingyao took Honggu with her. My aunt went to the village chief’s house.
To build a workshop in Xiaoxi Village, it is necessary to buy land and build a house, as well as recruit workers. All these must be discussed with the village chief Pei Ningyuan, and Honggu doesn’t want to take the credit for herself. She has to let Xiaoxi Village People know who they are in love with.
Honggu arranged for the workshop management, including those on night watch, to come over, and workers were recruited in the village. According to Ji Qingyao's plan for future expansion, at least five acres of land would be needed.
Ji Qingyao is not worried about the sales of soap, and there will not be only one workshop in Xiaoxi Village in the future. However, in order to nip it in the bud and prevent the recipe from being leaked, Honggu still proposed that servants who signed the death contract should be used in the matching process. Ji Qingyao agreed.
The dosage ratio is related to the production of the entire soap, and she understands Honggu's caution.
When Pei Ningyuan heard that Honggu was going to build a workshop in the village and recruit workers in the village, he was so excited that he couldn't calm down for a long time. He felt that Ji Qingyao was a noble person in Xiaoxi Village.
Pei Ningyuan directly pointed to an open space of more than ten acres in the south to Ji Qingyao and Hong Gu. Ji Qingyao thought it was good and could buy it. The main reason was that the price of the land was completely within the acceptable range, eight taels of silver per mu, including the roof. The cost of the workshop is less than three hundred taels, and this amount of money is nothing to the wealthy Hong Gu.
After the land affairs were settled, Honggu thought for a while and finally said: "Village Chief Pei, I originally wanted to build this workshop in the county town, but this girl said that you took good care of her, and also talked about the customs of the villagers in Xiaoxi. simple."
Hong Gu paused after saying this and glanced at Ji Qingyao, her eyes filled with undisguised love. From the moment she entered the door, Ji Qingyao introduced Hong Gu to Pei Mingche and only said that she was the owner of Beauty House in the county town, and did not say anything about the two of them. relation.
Pei Mingche glanced at the two of them and thought that Honggu was a noble person that Ji Qingyao met in the county. He didn't dare to speak rashly and waited for Honggu's next words.
When Hong Gu saw that Pei Mingche was just as Ji Qingyao said, he was not a person who was eager for quick success, she no longer beat around the bush: "The most important thing is that this girl is unwilling to live with me in the county town. I don't know why I am such a godmother." If you don’t want to see this girl, if you want to see your daughter, you have to go through a lot of trouble before you can see her."
When Ji Qingyao heard this, she stood up and walked to Hong Gu and hurriedly called out coquettishly: "Godmother, I..."
Honggu took Ji Qingyao's hand and patted the back of her hand: "Okay, godmother, I'm joking. Although you are not my biological child, but who made us fall in love, I became your godmother. I have to think about you, silly boy, sit still and don’t let the village chief and his wife laugh at you."
Pei Ningyuan and Jiang were so shocked that they couldn't speak. It was only then that Pei Ningyuan and his wife knew that Honggu was Ji Qingyao's godmother.
