Chapter 1417 The situation of Ding Rujun
Ding's family was in average condition, but her father married her stepmother.
The stepmother is not very good to her, but because Ding Rujun has a hand embroidery skill, the money earned from embroidery every month can make the family eat two more meals.
For the sake of making money, her stepmother didn't abuse her.
But when Ding Rujun didn't have a rest, he worked hard at home all day.
She is also a little clever, and the embroidery work is not fast, so as not to raise the appetite of the stepmother. She even left a few veils occasionally, and asked others to help her get the cloth village to buy it for a little money.
However, the stepmother didn't like her in the end, she disliked her low income, and wanted to get her into the embroidery workshop. It is said that the embroidery workshop includes food and housing, and earns a lot of money in a month.
Ding Rujun didn't want to go to the embroidery workshop. The embroidery work is fine now, but after doing it for a long time, his eyes will fail. Back then, her own mother had broken eyes and her body had fallen ill. She didn't want to repeat the same mistakes. So when the stepmother took her to the embroidery workshop, she deliberately hid herself, and the embroidery workshop did not like her.
However, the stepmother was still reluctant to give up. When she heard that Jinlan Street was recruiting people, she immediately urged Ding’s father to send Ding Rujun over there.
Father Ding really took her to Jinlan Street.
Ding Rujun was reluctant at first, and only planned to go through the motions, thinking that if she failed to embroider, people would not want her.
It turned out that when I went in, I found out that this shop is not recruiting embroidery girls, but female workers.
And according to Gu Dong's advice, all the guests were women. Ding Rujun understood almost immediately that she wanted to seize this opportunity, so she performed well and entered the shop.
The stepmother was not happy, but after hearing that she had signed the deed and still had five taels of silver a month, she finally agreed reluctantly.
After Gu Yundong knew about this, he spoke to Ding Rujun alone.
She said, "Now that your family knows that your salary is five taels, you have to hand it in. But I have said it before, if you do well in the future, you will be paid more. You don't have to tell me when that happens. Family, I won't tell you, just keep it yourself."
Ding Rujun was stunned for a moment when he heard it, then his face became slightly excited, his eyes brightened, and he looked at Gu Yundong gratefully.
So this time, Ding Rujun also proposed to put the clothes in the Shao family for safekeeping.
She was worried that after taking it back, her stepmother would go straight away.
Gu Yundong agreed, and Ding Rujun left.
On the second day, everyone came early in the morning.
Gu Yundong rented two carriages to take everyone there. Mamma Xia led them in through the back door of Qin's house, while she and Shao Qingyuan went to see Qin Wenzheng.
Qin Wenzheng just came back the day before yesterday, and he knew that Gu Yundong and the two were coming, so he waited in the study early in the morning.
But who would have known that the left and right were waiting, and no one came for a long time.
Qin Wenzheng was a little tired from waiting, but he couldn't help it, so he still opened the door of the study and went out to have a look.
Then, I heard a familiar voice giggling down the corridor.
"Really? So you know a lot of words. Speaking of which, Mr. Qin, you have been a master before. If nothing else, you are still very experienced in teaching and educating people. If you learn more from him, you may have already You can also take the exam for talented people.”
"Sister Gu, you're joking. I don't have any talent for reading. I'm still so old. If I can read and write, I'm very satisfied. How can I dare to take the exam for talent?"
"Don't belittle yourself, you..."
