After traveling to ancient times, I became a superb shrew

Chapter 87 Reversing black and white (reward plus more)
Gu Qing was teaching the third aunt Song how to milk a cow, when Zhu Yu walked in with an anxious expression: "Sister-in-law, I just saw someone steal lard residue."

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Song was not calm: "Why are there still these sneaky people in the village, eldest niece, don't come out about this matter, I'll tell the old lady, let the old lady find that person out, Swear in front of the whole village..."

Gu Qing knew that the third aunt said this because she was thinking of her. After all, the people in the village were working for her. If the master and the workers were to tear their skins apart, they were afraid that those people would secretly mess with them in the future, and it would be impossible to guard against.

"Third Aunt, don't worry." Gu Qing smiled, "We'll deal with this matter at noon."

Zhu Yu was a little anxious: "When that woman grabbed a handful, she could eat up a whole pot of lard residue. By noon, there might be nothing left."

Gu Qing chuckled: "Why are you so impatient, there really isn't much work in the warehouse, so you can continue to help keep an eye on it, except lard residue, plant ash, dry firewood, etc., pay attention to it, If someone takes it away, you write it down in a small notebook."

Zhu Yu scratched the back of his head: "Well...sister-in-law, I don't know much, and I can't write..."

Gu Qing was a little worried, if she couldn't read, she would have to do hard work in the future.

But she is not the child's parents, and she has no obligation to send the child to school.

She said: "If you can't write, then use your brain to write it down. What does that person look like, what did you take away, and tell me after you remember it."

Zhu Yu nodded vigorously: "I'll go right away!"

He left in a hurry.

Gu Qing continued to teach Song to milk.

Zhu Han came over, hesitantly said: "Patriarch, I want to teach Xiaoji how to read."

He is a child himself, so as long as he has time to teach Zhu Ju, there is no problem at all.

Gu Qing said: "Okay, it's best to teach as soon as possible."

Zhu Han laughed: "He will definitely learn quickly. He has been willing to learn since he was a child, and he is very smart."

"You have to cultivate more children in the town, let's try to open a dessert shop in Fucheng as soon as possible!" Gu Qing now feels more and more that there is a shortage of people around him.

Zhu Han's eyes lit up when he heard the words: "Are we really going to open the store in Fucheng?"

"The layout is open!" Gu Qing raised her hand and patted Zhu Han's shoulder and said, "We're going to spread Qinghan's desserts all over the beam!"

Hearing what Gu Qing said, Zhu Han wished he could go to the town to arrest the four Tong family siblings and teach them on the spot.

When noon was approaching, Mrs. Song finally learned how to milk a cow, and Gu Qing walked towards the soap workshop.

It was agreed before that I could go back to eat and rest for half an hour at noon, but it was already time, but no one dared to leave.

Gu Qing walked over, clapped her hands, and asked everyone to put down their work and gather.

Eighteen workers, plus Mo Li and Zhu Han who had been busy all the time, stood neatly in the open space at the door.

"There are two pots of lard residue from the pork in the morning. Our family can't finish these things, so we plan to save some of them for everyone's welfare." Gu Qing said with a smile, "Everyone has worked hard, and these Lard dregs are sold cheaply, five cents a catty, and one person is limited to half a catty."

Everyone was shocked.

The price of pure fat pork on the market is more than 20 yuan a catty, lard can be sold for [-] yuan, and the price of boiled oil residue is ten yuan a catty.

Some poor families who can't afford meat will buy lard and slag to make tooth sacrifices. This food is fragrant and crispy, and it is a rare good thing.

Ten cents a catty is quite cheap, but not many people in the village are willing to do so.

Now Gu Qing here only needs five cents a catty, who would refuse such a good deed!

Immediately, many people raised their hands and wanted to buy it.

Gu Qing's smile slowly subsided: "Fifty catties of fat pork, it is reasonable to say that at least ten catties of lard residue can be boiled out. Let's take a look, are these two pots enough for ten catties?"

Jin Huaniang frowned: "The fat pork that was delivered in the morning didn't have any lean meat mixed in, and four and a half catties of fat meat can produce about one catty of oil residue, it's impossible to have only this little."

"The village is poor, and it's rare for everyone to eat a bite of meat all year round, but there are two large pots of lard left over here. I know some people will be greedy."

Gu Qing said softly, "But being greedy is not an excuse for stealing food. I'll just say it once and take the initiative to stand up and admit my mistakes. This time I don't have to pursue it. If I refuse to admit it, don't blame me for turning my face and denying others." .”

The atmosphere suddenly became cold, and the NO.18 people standing below looked at each other in blank dismay.

Moli and the others have been busy teaching the workers to perfect the process all morning, and they are so busy that they are dizzy. They never thought that something went wrong in the first process.

His eyes were sharp, and he looked over one by one.

Aunt Xu's eyes dodged a little, but was caught by Mo Li.

"I know who it is!" Aunt Xu stood up and pointed at Zhu Yu, "He's been wandering around outside all morning, he must have smelled the smell of lard residue, and ate it while we weren't paying attention... so ignorant Your child should be blasted out!"

Zhu Yu's eyes widened angrily, this woman really knows how to turn black and white.

Gu Qing smiled: "Jin Hua Niang, help me check Aunt Xu's skirt."

Aunt Xu's face was full of disbelief: "The person who stole the lard residue is this kid, what does it have to do with me, Mrs. Gu, what do you mean, I provoked you?"

"I saw with my own eyes that you secretly ate oil residue and hid it in your clothes." Zhu Yu gritted his teeth and said, "Aunt Jinhua, you can find out after you check."

Jin Huaniang quickly stepped forward and held Aunt Xu's arm. How could Aunt Xu stand still obediently and struggled.

Then, lard residue fell from her bulging chest, and her underwear was also shiny.

"It's really you!" Jin Huaniang couldn't believe it, "There's not even half a catty of lard residue, and it's only five cents. How can you do such a thing!"

Aunt Xu was caught and stopped struggling, and immediately took out all the lard residue: "Miss Gu, return it to you, forget about it, I will never steal it again!"

Gu Qing said coldly: "A Li, you can settle the wages for the first half of today for Aunt Xu, Aunt Xu, you don't have to come again in the afternoon."

After she finished speaking, she turned around and left, not giving Aunt Xu any room to admit her mistake and beg for mercy.

If Aunt Xu admits to stealing, she will be willing to give it another chance.

But this person not only refused to admit it, but also dumped the scapegoat on others. She didn't dare to keep him if he had a problem with his character.

The other dozen or so others standing in the open space were still terrified. In fact, after smelling the smell of lard, they also had the idea of ​​stealing it, but they were all restrained. Fortunately, they held back, otherwise, they would be like Mrs. Xu. The good job of [-] Wen a month is gone...
