A small peasant girl

Chapter 258 Taking Self-Esteem into consideration

"Sister Wen, I actually have another meaning." Seeing Wen Xiaodu's face of embarrassment, Wenzi could only continue to persuade: "Sister Wen, isn't my elder sister married? After all, she has a husband's family now. In the future, I’m afraid it’s not easy to come out to the shop to help out, it’s just me and my second brother, and I’m afraid the shop will be too busy, so I want to use half of the shop to replace someone to help out, without renting money.”

"Wenzi, what do you mean by that?" After hearing Wenzi's words, Wen Xiaodu stopped her work and shoulders and asked with interest, "Is it worth working for half a shop?"

"Yes, Sister Wen, we don't charge rent for half of the store, but we can still pay ten cents a day for two meals." Wenzi's wages are a bit lower, but if she raises the wages very high, It doesn't matter if she can't make money, she is afraid that Wen Xiaodu, who has strong self-esteem, will have some thoughts in her heart, thinking that the second wife of the Liu family is sympathizing with her, and her concern is too obvious, and some things will go wrong.

"Sister Wenzi, you see we are strong enough to work, as long as half of the shop is free, can I come and help you?" Wen Xiaoya jumped up from the low stool immediately after hearing what Wenzi said, with a look of anticipation on her face. Looking at Wenzi with eager eyes, "Sister Wenzi, don't look at me for being young. In fact, I can do a lot of work. I am good at washing dishes and vegetables."

"Xiaoya, I know you are the leader of the work, but..." Wenzi deliberately put on a hesitant expression, and said in embarrassment: "But our family does noodle business, and we have to wash vegetables frequently. Bowls and the like are very hard work."

"No, no, I help wash the dishes and vegetables at home every day. This job is not tiring at all. Sister Wenzi, can you let me go over and try it?" Wen Xiaoya hugged Wenzi's arm, begging and fawning speaking in a tone of voice.

"Xiaoya, if you are alone, you have to go from the village to the town and back to the village every day. The journey is too long and too hard. How can I feel relieved as a girl?"

"This..." Wen Xiaoya lowered her head a little disappointed after hearing Wenzi's words, because she couldn't refute what Wenzi said.

However, Wen Xiaoya is also a nimble master. After thinking about it carefully, she hurried to Wen Xiaodu's side, took Wen Xiaodu's arm and said, "Sister, why don't we both go to sister Wenzi's shop to help, so that the family Selling cloth is also more convenient, and it can also help Sister Wenzi, so neither side suffers, okay?"

"Xiaoya, you..." Wen Xiaodu thought about what Wenzi said earlier, and looked at Wenzi's half-smile expression at the moment, and probably guessed what happened. She was very grateful to Wenzi for using this method to preserve her only remaining self-esteem.

Just because of Wenzi's kindness, Wen Xiaodu felt that if she was trying to push back, it would only appear that she was not generous enough and too hypocritical, so she could only nod her head and say, "Wenzi, I can do some washing of vegetables and dishes, or just... ..."

"Then I will thank Sister Wen for her help first. When the shop in the town is just right, I will come and tell Sister Wen and Xiaoya to come." Seeing that Wen Xiaodu agreed with his approach, Wenzi was also happy. For Wen Xiaodu, who has a strong self-esteem, this is already not an easy task.

"Oh, that's great, I also have a shop at home." Wen Xiaoya stood up and clapped her hands in applause, with a happy expression all over her face, and asked anxiously: "Sister Wenzi, when will the shop in town be available?" Can it be fixed?"

"It will be completed in a few days." Wen Zitong inquired about the shop from the people in the same village. The yamen attached great importance to this matter, and the court also waited to see the effect of the construction of the market, so the county lord hired many people. ***Fan rushed to build a shop.

"Sister Wenzi, is it true? Wouldn't that be great?" Wen Xiaoya felt extremely happy when she thought that she would also have a small shop selling cloth in the future.

"Look at you happy." Wen Xiaodu felt a little pain in her heart when she saw the happy look of her younger sister. It had been a long time since she saw Wen Xiaoya so happy.

The construction of a market in the town has become one of the topics that people from all over the world often talk about. They used to talk about who has more fields, who bought cattle, and who has gossip for everyone's entertainment.It's different now, who has a shop in the market is the topic that people are most concerned about.
