I have to do a task today too

Chapter 191
He only sells pheasants and rabbits, so Su Ran hasn't gone to Chengfeng Town yet. Before going out, she pulled a piece of cloth and now covered most of her face to ensure that no one would recognize her. Then she squatted at a farmer's market in Zhao Town. In the corner, wait until it is sold before going to Chengfeng Town.

Because they were all alive, and their fur looked slick, she found a buyer without squatting for a long time. After haggling for a while, the other party paid two taels of silver plus four hundred cash, and brought three fat the living creatures departed.

Su Ran collected the money that was still hot, and then got up and started to rush to Chengfeng Town.

It took a hundred cash to get on the carriage between Chengfeng Town and Zhao Town. After making an appointment for the return trip, Su Ran jumped out of the carriage and calmly looked at the town that the original owner had never set foot in.

It is said to be a town, but its scale is larger than some small border towns. After all, it is the nearest town to the imperial capital, and its prosperity can be imagined.

The things sold in the market are much more complete than those in Zhao Town, and all kinds of shops are also blooming everywhere. After shopping around, seeing that it was almost lunch time, she bought two buns from the bun shop to satisfy her hunger. Then I went to a smaller restaurant to try my luck.

The shop clerk saw someone coming in, and just took two steps forward, seeing Su Ran's outfit, most of the enthusiasm on his face dissipated immediately.

It turned out that he was a countryman, and he dared to walk into their restaurant in this rough cloth clothes?I'm afraid it's because I don't know how to read, so I entered the wrong place, right?
But seeing that she had already walked in, the waiter couldn't just ignore it, so he had to take two steps forward. Without expecting her to order, he casually greeted: "This guest, please come in."

Su Ran looked it over, although it was just a small restaurant, the area was not too big, there were only about eight or nine tables in the lobby, it was not much different from the restaurant where the original owner used to work in Zhao Town, and the environment was clean and tidy.

It's just that this mistress is probably used to judging people by their appearance, so the look in their eyes is not particularly friendly.

She shrugged indifferently and asked, "Is your shopkeeper here?"

"It's such a coincidence that the shopkeeper is not in the store for something. This lady, if you have anything, you can tell me." A middle-aged man dressed as a cashier came down from the stairs and looked at the woman in front of him. Dressed up, changed his mouth, and answered Su Ran before he could speak.

Su Ran glanced at him, and then explained the purpose of coming here. She wanted to find a job to do, and if possible, she could use the kitchen to cook on the spot.

But the middle-aged man showed embarrassment after listening to it, seeing that Su Ran was dressed like a village woman, although her conversation was orderly and her temperament was good, but she couldn't make an exception just because of this.

"To be honest, our store has no plans to hire another cook. Madam has also seen it. Our store is not too big, so we don't need so many cooks." The man declined her request with some apology.

Su Ran nodded, indicating that she knew: "In that case, I'm the one who bothered."

He was about to go out when he was called again.

"Madam, please stay!" The man said: "Madam, please forgive me. If you are still looking for a job as a cook in this town, you may not be able to find it even after dark. I have a little sister who runs an embroidery workshop. , if you don’t mind, you can go there to have a look and pick up some embroidery work, so as not to walk outside alone, it’s not safe.”

Su Ran raised her eyebrows, a little curious, and unexpectedly met a kind person, "Thank you, I'll go and have a look later."

No matter what it is, agree to it and talk about it later.

The reason he said that he couldn’t find a cook is probably not groundless. Chengfeng Town is so big, and he knows better than himself what is going on between restaurants and restaurants. Everyone has their own fixed cook, and few people will rest assured. Hire a strange village woman to work as a helper in the store.

The original owner entrusted Lizheng to help before, and sold face before entering that restaurant. It was because of human relationship that she entered such a small restaurant in Zhao Town. Now she is in Chengfeng Town, and she wants to find a job here. As you can imagine, it is even more difficult.

After turning her thoughts around like this, she left this restaurant, and the next few restaurants she went to also hit a wall.

It seems that I really want to go to that embroidery workshop.

Although the folk customs here are open and women can come out to find work to do, but their abilities are limited, and the scope of work that decent women can do is so wide.

The embroidery workshop can take over some work. Although the embroidery work of the original owner is very ordinary, it is not a problem to sew and mend normally, but after experiencing the two ancient worlds of being raised by the general's wife and the favorite concubine, Su Ran said that as a good lady How could the important skill of embroidery not be full?

So for the embroidery work, she said that she is still very relieved.

Turning a few streets, I arrived at the embroidery workshop that the man mentioned. It was an ordinary embroidery workshop. There should be several in Chengfeng Town. And the decoration inside is simple and elegant. In addition to embroidery, it also accepts orders for cloth and ready-to-wear, but it may be a little less.

As soon as she walked in, a woman walked up to her, about thirty years old, with a natural smile.

"Madam is here. We have imported a lot of new materials here. They are all new products from Jiangnan this year. Come and have a look." He didn't just play it off just because Su Ran dressed plainly, but introduced these materials to her very seriously. texture and origin.

Su Ran sized her up calmly, and this woman looked somewhat similar to that accountant. It seemed that she was his little sister, the owner of this embroidery workshop.

After a round of introductions, the woman probably also knew that Su Ran's family background was not very good, so she also mentioned some cheap cloth during the introduction, and even said that if she bought a lot, she could give a discount.

It seems to be a relatively good boss.

"To be honest, I came here to find a job, and I wanted to ask you if you have any external embroidery work list." Su Ran also said with a smile.

The woman didn't find it strange, it seemed that she was very familiar with people like Su Ran who came to her door all the time.

Her expression didn't change too much, she was still amiable.

"Then wait for a while, I'll get you a needle and thread, first you can embroider a pattern at will, and I'll see." After the woman finished speaking, she left only a girl of twelve or thirty in front, and she went behind Go get her a needle and thread.

Su Ran didn't wait long. She came back, holding a sewing basket filled with embroidery thread.
