"Then we need to find some more helpers." Lin Xiaoxue suggested.

Mother Lu nodded: "How many people do you need? I'll go to the village and ask for them."

"Ten, maybe." Lin Xiaoxue thought for a moment, "Ages between 20 and 45. Look for people who are quick, talk little, are honest, capable and reliable.

They are mainly responsible for washing and cutting vegetables, while the pickling part is left to the eldest sister-in-law.”

Upon hearing her daughter-in-law's arrangement, Mother Lu immediately patted her chest and assured: "Don't worry! I'll be watching! Who dares to be lazy and make trouble under my nose!"

After saying that, he quickly walked out the door: "I'll go find someone for you."

Mother Lu first found the door of her neighbor Aunt Zhang's house.

"Sister Zhang!" she called out loudly.

Aunt Zhang poked her head out of the house when she heard the familiar voice and asked with a smile, "Are you here to borrow the glass jar again? We really don't have any at home."

Mother Lu shook her head and said bluntly: "Didn't you ask me before that if the workshop needs help, you would be one of them?"

"Yes, yes, yes!" Aunt Zhang nodded repeatedly.

Mother Lu smiled brightly: "We are in need of people right now! Come with me quickly."

Aunt Zhang followed Lu's mother towards the workshop without saying a word.

It's a simple job, who can't do it? Aunt Zhang immediately took the apron, sleeves, gloves, etc. handed over by Lu's mother, put them on quickly, and started to work efficiently.

Seeing this, Lu's mother continued to run around the village to call for help.

It’s true that Mother Lu’s ability to take action is incredible. She rushed through the village like a gust of wind and gathered everyone together in less than an hour.

Ten strong and nimble women stood in front of the workshop, waiting for Lin Xiaoxue's inspection.

There were a few people who did not meet the requirements and also asked to try their luck, but Mother Lu had sharp eyes and no matter how many requests they made, they would be turned away if they did not meet the standards.

Lin Xiaoxue came out of the house and glanced at the expectant faces.

She nodded to show her satisfaction, then began to register her name and explained in detail the job content and treatment: "Work eight hours a day, and have two days off a month. The basic salary is 35 yuan a month, and if you do a good job, you can get a bonus of 5 to 10 yuan."

Upon hearing such generous treatment, the women present immediately started talking about it.

“It’s higher than the ones in the factory!”

“And there’s a bonus!”

Everyone expressed their surprise and determination, "Boss, rest assured, we will do our best!"

Lin Xiaoxue nodded and gave each person a three-piece work suit.

The three-piece suit consists of an apron, sleeves, and gloves.

The women were enthusiastic, dressed themselves, and began to work actively.

Today is the first day, and I only need to work half a day, which is a great deal even if it is just a full day's salary.

Looking at this group of busy figures, Lin Xiaoxue couldn't help but think of someone.

My second sister-in-law Shi Zhenli has been in the town to sell her products for many days, but how come there is no news of any orders?

Are you really just being lazy?

The scene switches to the streets...

In fact, Shi Zhenli was not lazy. These days, she has been going from store to store to sell her own pickled vegetables, which can be described as hard work.

At the beginning she was full of confidence, but the cruel reality always makes people discouraged, and she ended in failure every time.

Seeing that many people had already signed up for several orders, but she still had no results, she was too embarrassed to go back and face the situation. She just felt a burning pain on her face.

He had boasted too much at the time and was laughed at to death by Lin Xiaoxue.

Shi Zhenli's steps seemed a little confused. She was like a boat that had lost its direction, drifting in the crowd.

She sighed, another day of wasted work.

She originally wanted to bring at least some success to the Lu family workshop through her own sales efforts, but she didn't expect reality to be so cruel.

After wandering for a while, I somehow arrived at that familiar place, the entrance of the processing plant where Lu Jingshi worked.

She remembered that her husband had been working here for a long time, since he graduated from junior high school. He started as an apprentice and rose to a skilled worker.

Thinking of Lu Jingshi, she wanted to go in and tell him about the cold stares and ridicule she had encountered while selling her products these days, and seek some comfort.

But I was also afraid that he would look down on me and laugh at me for not being able to do such a small thing.

She stood at the factory gate and enjoyed the cool breeze for half an hour, but it still couldn't resolve the mess in her heart.

Since you don’t dare to go in, then go back.

Just as she turned to leave, she saw Lu Jingshi and a young female comrade walking out of the factory gate, talking and laughing.

The two seemed to be having a very pleasant conversation, and the lesbian smiled sweetly.

Although she couldn't hear any words, the intimacy they saw made Shi Zhenli furious.

She immediately rushed forward, pointing at the female comrade and yelling at her.

"You shameless bitch! Do you have any shame in seducing other men?"

Lu Jingshi was shocked, and was surprised and happy about Shi Zhenli's arrival: "Wife, you misunderstood. If you have anything to say, tell me later."

"What a misunderstanding, I saw it all with my own eyes. You are so good, Lu Jingshi, I thought you were an honest man and you were loyal to me, but I didn't expect you to be so careless."

The situation was out of control for a while because of Shi Zhenli's high decibels, which attracted the surrounding workers to stick their heads out and walk out of the factory.

"What's going on? Why are you arguing?"

"This is Lu Jingshi's wife. She's pretty, but she's such a shrew."

"The boss's daughter doesn't come here for inspections more than a few times a year, so how come she's hooking up with Lu Jingshi?"

Shi Zhenli's anger was like a sharp knife, directed at the female comrade who was talking and laughing with Lu Jingshi.

Her words were sharp and full of sarcasm: "Do you regret marrying me? You're already having an affair with your boss's daughter, why are you still pretending to be noble?"

Lu Jingshi's face changed slightly, and he hurriedly opened his mouth to explain: "Zhenli, listen to me..."

But Shi Zhenli didn't give him a chance to interrupt, her emotions were completely out of control.

At this time, the boss's daughter rushed over angrily and scolded Lu Jingshi: "I saw that you worked hard and did a good job on this batch of goods. I was planning to talk to my dad about promoting you! But you are here to ruin my reputation!"

She turned around and yelled at Shi Zhenli, "Stop yelling! My boyfriend is an elite soldier, a hundred times better than your man. Who would want to be attracted to your husband? What provoked you to come here and act wild?"

Lu Jingshi felt really anxious and helpless at this moment. "I'm sorry, my wife is talking nonsense, don't bother with her!"

He apologized profusely.

But the boss's daughter had already walked angrily towards the car parked on the side of the road, without giving him any chance to explain or redeem himself.

The crowd began to change their attitude.

"I'll just say it was a misunderstanding."

"I heard that the boss's daughter's boyfriend is really awesome. How can Lu Jingshi compare to him?"

"We were almost led astray by this bitch... If our boss finds out that we spread gossip, and we lose our jobs, won't that be a huge loss?"

As everyone was discussing, the crowd dispersed like birds and animals.
