The resentful best friend travels through daily life

Zhou Ning instructed Shen Yi that the sooner the wooden boards were made, the better.

After saying that, Zhou Wan urged the two of them to go eat.

During dinner, Qingyi said that the house had been renovated and they would move in early the next morning.

Shen Zhong asked, "Does the gentleman need any help? My two brothers and I can get up early tomorrow to help."

Qing Yi waved his hand and said, "No, no, I've been bothering you these past few days. The three of us don't have much stuff, so come here and get busy."

As he spoke, Qing Yi thought of Shen You and Zhou Ning, and said, "You can't miss the martial arts training tomorrow. I'll take you there in the afternoon."

Zhou Ning, who didn't want to practice martial arts, looked like she had lost all hope in life. Qing Yi saw her disappointed face and said, "A Ning, martial artists should not be lazy."

Zhou Ning said: "Master, it's not that I'm lazy, I just don't have time."

Qing Yi snorted twice and said, "Today is too tiring, and tomorrow is too difficult. When are you going to practice martial arts? Don't be lazy."

When Shen You saw Zhou Ning was about to be scolded again, he immediately came out to smooth things over and said, "Hey, Master, what do you want to eat tomorrow? How about egg yolk pastry?"

Qing Yi naturally understood what Shen You meant, so he agreed and stopped criticizing Zhou Ning.

Qing Yi took out two books and gave them to Shen Zhong and Shen Xin respectively, saying, "Shen Zhong will pass the imperial examination in two years, and Shen Xin will pass the imperial examination next year. These two books may be helpful to your studies."

During the time Shen Zhong and Shen Xin lived with Qingyi, they were always guided by Qingyi. Their talents and knowledge were incomparable to those of ordinary teachers.

I'm afraid these two books are not available for purchase today, so Shen Zhong and Shen Xin both stood up and took them with both hands.

"Thank you, sir." Both of them shouted respectfully.

Shen Shi was also very happy and said, "Thank you for your teaching. I can't express my gratitude in words. You and the two young masters are staying here. If you have any questions, you can come to me. I will do my best to help you."

"That's natural." Qingyi said.

There was no expression on Qingyi's face. He only smiled slightly when he saw Shen You bringing him food.

He is what the saying goes, the black-faced king.

After dinner, everyone chatted and laughed, and then went to bed.

On the second day, Zhou Sanhua and his group arrived early.

Zhou Ning also got up very early, took out the pastries that Shen You had made yesterday, and distributed them to several people so that they could fill their stomachs.

"Aunts, sisters-in-law, and sisters, you came so early, you must be hungry. Eat something first." Zhou Ning said.

Auntie Pang said happily, "Ning girl is really generous. She gave me a piece of cake."

Having said that, he finished eating.

The others all tasted a little and then hid it secretly.

Especially the Wednesday flowers, they were just put away without being eaten.

Zhou Sanhua was the most obvious. When she was hiding the pastries, she happened to make eye contact with Zhou Ning. For a moment, her expression was extremely embarrassed.

But life did not allow her to save face, and after a moment of embarrassment, she continued to hide.

Zhou Ning understood her behavior. Zhou Sanhua had three daughters and a son who was less than a month old. Maybe she was hiding the food for her own children.

Zhou Ning said: "Before we start work today, I want to talk to you about something serious."

"My workshop is also a serious workshop, so naturally there are some rules to be established."

"First, unless there are unexpected events, my workshop will have work every day, so please be sure to come every day and work at least five hours a day. I will still pay you according to the number of pieces, but if you are absent for more than one day in a month, you will not receive a full attendance bonus. If you can work for a whole month, you will receive a full attendance bonus, which is 100 coins."

"So, I think everyone should communicate with their families."

Auntie Fat waved her hand and said, "With so much money, our family will definitely agree."

Mrs. Wu and Cuihua Daya also agreed, and Zhou Sanhua also agreed after hesitating for a moment.

"Secondly, because you will be staying here for a long time, I will provide breakfast and lunch. These things are free. I hope you will eat well and have a healthy body. Don't think of saving money for your family. My workshop requires you to be completely healthy. If you have a headache or fever, you are not allowed to come. If I find you coming here with an illness, please don't think I will turn my back on you."

Mrs. Wu asked, "Why? Just because of the lip balm? Our illness doesn't affect our work, right?"

Zhou Ning explained: "Because it's not clean."

"Time is running out. I will give you gloves and masks and other things in the future, but I won't go into details today."

Everyone stopped talking, after all, they were paying.

"Third, the techniques I teach you must be kept completely secret. You must not reveal them to anyone else. Anyone who violates this rule will be fined 100 taels of silver."

"One hundred taels? Oh, that's so much money." Aunt Fat said in shock.

"Of course, my skills are quite valuable, so please keep them safe," Zhou Ning said.

"Fourth, I wrote an employee code of conduct, which details the things that need to be paid attention to and the specifics of the payment. I will read it every day, but I will also take out an incense stick of time every day to teach you how to read, so that everything will be more convenient in the future."

Daya said timidly: "Do we still need to learn to read?"

Zhou Ning nodded and said, "Of course, knowing how to read makes everything easier. For example, I need you to sign now. If you can read, you don't have to worry about being cheated."

Zhou Ning took out five contracts and said, "Whether you sign or not is entirely up to you."

All five of them had no objection and signed.

But they didn't know how to read, so Zhou Ning taught them how to write stroke by stroke.

The contract was in two copies, one was given to them and one was kept by Zhou Ning.

The tube for making lip balm was almost finished yesterday, so Zhou Ning asked them to use the tube to hold the lip balm made yesterday.

This Zhou Ning does not intend to go for the mass market route, but plans to sell it as a luxury product, so there is no need to make a lot at one time.

In fact, skin care products still account for the majority. After all, scarcity makes things valuable. Although there is no shortage of skin care products in this era, they are not of high quality either.

Zhou Ning plans to treat acne first.

At this time Zhou Wan brought breakfast.

Zhou Wan smiled gently and said, "Aunts and sisters-in-law, you have worked hard. Let's eat something first."

Sister Wu said, "No, Miss Ning just gave us some cakes."

Zhou Wan smiled and said, "She is just teasing you. She must be hungry. This is our workshop's intention. A healthy body can help you work better."

After this was said, no one could refuse.

Zhou Sanhua saw that her porridge had a lot of red dates and a few more eggs than others.

Cuihua and Daya had more meat and vegetables.

Mrs. Wu and Aunt Pang had some extra desserts to bring to their own children.

The five people all had complicated feelings. They didn't expect that the sisters Zhou Ning and Zhou Wan were so sincere to others.

With the intention of repaying a favor, the students worked very hard. In one morning, they had already learned how to use the acne cream.

Of course, part of the reason is that this is a work-in-progress.
