Running with the ball in the lean years, the evil mother-in-law and the whole family regretted it

Chapter 100 New Year and New Benefits

In the morning, Bai Taotao had breakfast and went to the workshop early.

When they arrived at the workshop, Granny Tan had already called a meeting with all the workers. Seeing Bai Taotao coming, everyone greeted her warmly.

"Daughter-in-law Youyi, why are you here?"

"Taotao, why did you come here in such a cold weather?" Chen Lin, the eldest sister-in-law of the Chen family, said and quickly brought a high wooden bench to Bai Taotao.

During a meeting, people standing above and below, especially those standing at the back, can see it.

Because there were so many people, the meeting was arranged outdoors so that it didn't take up a room. Anyway, she kept the story short.

Mrs. Chen Lin helped Bai Taotao stand up, and then Bai Taotao slowly said: "We are calling a meeting today. I mainly want to tell you a few things."

"The first thing is that starting from next year, everyone in the workshop will be able to take two paid days off every month, and they will receive their wages during the rest period. As for the rest time, you can choose it yourself. If you don't have any rest after a month, you can Compensation for two days’ wages.”

"In addition, there will be 7 days of paid annual leave at the end of each year. Starting from the th day of the year, work will start on the sixth day of the lunar month. Although there will be a rest for the seven days from the th to the fifth day of the lunar month, the workshop will still pay wages to everyone. . This is what is called a paid holiday.”

The villagers couldn't believe this.

"Do you still get paid for taking a break?"

"It's quite a lot after two days. It must be more than sixty copper coins, right?"

"Yes, our wages are one tael of silver a month, but we can't earn more than sixty coppers in two days."

"That can buy several kilograms of meat, hahaha..."

"There are still seven days left for the Chinese New Year. You can get hundreds of coins in seven days, right? I can't believe this good thing, hahaha..."

Mrs. Chen Lin smiled and said: "What is unbelievable about this? Didn't everyone see the courage of You Yi's daughter-in-law during the New Year?"

"That's right, that's right."

"Okay, everyone, be quiet. It's cold, so let's keep the conversation short." Baitao Tao was shivering and quickly raised his hand to stop everyone from continuing to chat.

Now everyone is happy that they are not afraid of the cold, but she is afraid of the cold.

After everyone calmed down, she continued: "The second thing is, today is the 28th day of the Lunar New Year, and that is the last day of work in the workshop this year. Everyone will work hard in the morning, and start cleaning up the workshop in the afternoon. Have a holiday."

"The third thing is, after everyone has finished cleaning up the workshop in the afternoon, don't be in a hurry to go home. Go to my house to have the New Year's Eve dinner. Remember to go, because there are gifts for the New Year's Eve dinner, no. There is no such thing as coming.”

"Is there still a New Year's Eve dinner? Are there any gifts? Aren't all the New Year's goods already distributed to everyone?" Zhao Tieshan was so shocked that his ears began to buzz.

Bai Taotao explained with a smile: "New Year's goods are New Year's goods. This is a lottery during the New Year's Eve dinner. There are many prizes. Everyone gets a prize. It depends on who has better luck."

"What kind of prizes are there?" Zheng Da Pang asked with a smile.

Bai Taotao replied: "There is a red envelope, and the money in the red envelope varies, the highest is five taels of silver, the minimum is two hundred cash. There is also a big gift bag, which contains bacon, glutinous rice cake, brown sugar, and snacks."

As soon as he said this, seeing that the workers below were about to start talking again, Bai Taotao quickly continued: "There's more!!"

As soon as it came out, everyone immediately became quiet.

"Also, if there is anyone who can perform, you can come up and perform for everyone. As long as everyone thinks the performance is good, you can get one more chance to draw. Each person is limited to one performance." "What can we perform then? We These are all idiots who can’t do anything.”

Bai Taotao smiled and said: "In order to have one more chance to draw a lottery, maybe I can win two taels of silver. I can go up and perform whatever I know. As long as I can make the villagers happy, it will be considered a success. Everyone can think about it while I have time. Think about it, let’s discuss it. I’ll leave this to Grandma Tan first, and I’ll go back and prepare for everyone.”

After saying that, Bai Taotao got down from the wooden bench, then turned and left.

When she stood at the gate of the workshop and looked towards her house, she suddenly felt that her house seemed a little lonely.

It has two rooms, a main room, and a kitchen. It's not very big, and it looks even more lonely from a distance.

Her house was built at the end of the village. When she bought the land, she bought a large one. After all the grain in the land was harvested, the ramie land was also dug up. Now there is only a lonely adobe house left there. There are no walls around, so I feel lonely and deserted no matter how I look at it now.

No wonder my sister-in-law made a joking suggestion last time, asking her not to build a more grand house, or to add a few more rooms, and then fence the yard.

Now it seems that it is really necessary to renovate the house, otherwise the caravans will see her lonely adobe house every time when they come to bring goods. It is indeed a bit, um~~~ loss of status.

It’s true that rich people are reluctant to build good houses.

It's no wonder that the first thing you do when you make money in this world is to buy a good car. Talking about business not only gives you face, but also demonstrates a person's abilities.

Then there's the house.

In fact, she personally thinks that the adobe house is quite good and quite comfortable to live in, so she has never thought about tearing it down and rebuilding a grand yard.

Now, well, she has to change her mind and start building another house in the new year.

After returning home, Bai Taotao followed Aunt Jin to prepare for the New Year's Eve dinner.

Because there were so many people, we planned to eat in front of the house. Baitaotao also saved a lot of trouble and directly arranged the hot pot. After all, it was such a cold day and the food was cold as soon as it was served. This would not be a problem if the folks got sick after eating cold food. good.

You don't have to worry about the cold when eating hot pot, and it's easy, just prepare a few pots. But because the folks can't eat too spicy food, Baitaotao always makes soup stock made with large bones and chicken.

Then prepare pork slices, pork loin slices, meatballs, egg dumplings, green vegetables, wild mushrooms, wild vegetables, etc. It is also very rich.

There is no way that cattle cannot be killed and eaten at this time, so most of the hot pot ingredients cannot be prepared.

Then you can only use pork instead.

And it’s not bad to replace the sliced ​​meat with pork. It’s delicious when dipped in dipping sauce.

The ingredients were prepared quickly, so Bai Taotao and the others simply ate the hot pot themselves at noon.

But since there were no outsiders, she was more prepared.

A mandarin duck pot with two flavors: spicy and soupy.

Because she still has to breastfeed her child, she cannot eat spicy food.

As for vegetables, she bought a lot of fat beef rolls, fat sheep rolls, large pieces of tripe, shrimp paste, pig brains, beef balls, duck intestines, duck blood, bean curds, sweet potato noodles, green vegetables, etc. from the mall.

In fact, she has also thought that there are one or two restaurants in every city or county now, and restaurants are basically opened by rich or well-known people. They will not be sold for a while, so instead of opening them again, It would be a good idea to open a hot pot restaurant instead of a restaurant, so that it wouldn't conflict with other restaurants.

But she plans to talk about this after the new year.
