Chapter 521: Lively Riverside
Chapter 521: Lively Riverside
When it comes to labor, Song Ning already has several candidates in mind. Sister-in-law Liu and Xu are the ready-made candidates. "Two sisters-in-law, this matter will require you to work hard. I will tell you in detail about the specific matters later."
In addition, she planned to go back and talk to Xiaohe about it. She had mentioned it once before, and she believed Xiaohe had been looking forward to it!
In addition, Shitou Niang is also a candidate. They are both women in the village who are good at needlework.
However, if you want to open a shop and sell goods that need to be mass-produced, it is definitely not enough to rely on just these few people.
Therefore, Song Ning had already decided to have her own embroidery workshop so that she could meet the sales of the shop.
The main candidates for this embroidery workshop are Xu, Mrs. Liu and others. Some women from the village will be recruited to join. After Xu gives them systematic training, they will be able to get started.
Besides this, she might be able to go to the embroidery shop and ask for some servants who are good at embroidery. In short, there would definitely be a lot of manpower needed.
Next, Xu and Mrs. Liu stopped discussing some details about opening the shop. They consciously left and left the topic to Song Ning and Mei.
The two of them quickly reached an agreement and signed the contract in duplicate.
"Sister Mei, I wish us a pleasant cooperation!" Song Ning put away the contract and winked at Mei playfully.
Mei smiled and replied, "Okay! I wish us a happy cooperation."
"Stay for lunch at noon. The kids will go fishing and hopefully they'll have some catches. You can also try my cooking skills."
"I couldn't ask for more. I've often heard Sister Ru mention how good your cooking is, but I've never had the chance to taste it. I must try it today."
After finishing the business, Song Ning also began to care about the children's fishing. "I don't know how they caught it. Sister Mei, do you want to go to the river to take a look?"
"Okay! Anyway, we have nothing to do right now, let's go and join in the fun."
When he heard that they were going to the river to watch fishing, Liu Nian immediately raised both hands in agreement, "Mom, mom, I want to go too."
The riverside was very lively at this time. A group of people, big and small, were sitting in a row on the river bank, each holding a bamboo pole in their hands.
Earlier, when Mr. Jiang saw Master Liu bringing the children to fish, he became addicted to fishing and came over with his equipment to join in the fun.
It just so happened that Shuisheng had his day off today, so he was asked by Mr. Jiang to do some hard labor.
Mr. Jiang was fully equipped. There was a small folding table where he put it, and he also brought tea, snacks, and pipes.
Humming a tune, drinking tea, and eating some snacks, it was such a comfortable state.
It would be even more perfect if the kids next to us weren't so noisy.
Among that group of kids, Mudun, Liu Yi, Yangyang and Chen Ran, the four of them were able to sit still and were not affected by their friends next to them at all.
On the other side, Sun Lei, who has always been restless, was very comfortable now without Hang Shuheng restraining him, laughing and making noises with Du Zimo and the others.
Du Zimo and his friends said they were here to fish, but actually they were here just for fun and to eat. It was not until they saw Yangyang and his friends catch the first fish that they remembered they were here to fish.
So they began to sit and fish, staring at the fishing rod and the float on the water.
But after a long time, their patience was exhausted and they could no longer sit still. In the end, they gave up and followed Sun Lei to play somewhere else.
When Zhou Ru brought Xiang Huan and Zhou Tong to the river, Mudun, who had been concentrating on the buoy on the water, suddenly shifted his attention and looked towards them.
"Sister Zhou, Sister Xianghuan, you are here too?"
Yang Yang didn't notice until he heard Mu Dun greeting Zhou Ru and the others. He quickly waved to Zhou Ru, "Aunt, are you here to see us fishing? Come and see! We caught some fish."
As they were talking, a fisherman next to the wooden pier suddenly caught a palm-sized fish.
Zhou Ru and Xiang Huan screamed in surprise and ran over to watch.
The kids who were having fun nearby also came over, clapping their hands and saying, "Brother Shuisheng is awesome! He caught another fish."
Shuisheng quickly untied the fish and threw it into the wooden barrel.
Zhou Ru and Xiang Huan looked into the wooden barrel and saw several fish of different sizes inside.
"Look, miss, there are quite a few. We have gained a lot!"
They didn't know the species of fish and couldn't name any of them, but that didn't stop them from enjoying watching them.
This is earned through labor, and has a different meaning from buying it at the fish market.
It would be great if they could participate, but unfortunately, they have no equipment and can only watch the fun.
Ever since Zhou Ru and Xiang Huan came, Mu Dun was no longer focused on fishing. To be precise, after seeing Xiang Huan, he started to have some evil ideas in his mind.
Ever since Xianghuan was bitten by a snake and was carried back by Shuisheng to seek treatment from Qingshuang, the two of them haven't had any chance to meet each other, and Mudun couldn't find any chance to give them the chance.
He kept glancing at Shuisheng. How could he not pay more attention to his wooden elder brother? When would he have a sister-in-law?
Mudun was talking to Zhou Ru and the others like a chatterbox, his mind working rapidly. Looking at the eager expression on Zhou Ru's face, he soon came up with an idea.
"Sister Zhou, do you want to go fishing? I'll let you try my fishing rod."
Zhou Ru was overjoyed and asked excitedly, "Really? Is it okay?"
Mudun nodded very confidently, "Of course, come on! You try it."
Zhou Ru had wanted to try it for a long time, so when she received the invitation, she naturally accepted it without hesitation.
But she had never fished before, so she didn't know what to do after taking the fishing rod. "Hey, here, after throwing the fishing line down, how can I know if there is a fish on the hook?"
Mu Dun taught in person, "You have to look at the buoy floating on the water. If a fish is caught, it will sink."
Zhou Ru listened and stared at the buoy on the water very intently, not daring to look away for a moment.
Xianghuan also stood beside Zhou Ru with a happy look on her face, staring at the water all the time.
Mu Dun arranged everything for Zhou Ru first, and then it was Xiang Huan's turn. He glanced back and forth between Shui Sheng and Xiang Huan, and suddenly said, "Sister Xiang Huan, do you want to try it too?"
After he finished speaking, regardless of whether Xianghuan agreed or not, he turned to Shuisheng, who was fishing seriously at the side, and said, "Brother, please give your fishing rod to Sister Xianghuan to have a try!"
