Trantor: EndlessFantasy Trantion Editor: EndlessFantasy Trantion
The pottery workshop initially did not have enough workforce, so Su Binn wanted to hire a few more people. However, the workshop also had to focus on one’s skill level when making pottery or porcin.
She was worried that it would be easier for things to get messy if she hired too many people at once. Therefore, she first hired about ten people to familiarize them with each other before hiring more.
That way, Tao Zhenggang, Tao Dayong, and the others could also adapt to having helpers. Even so, the Taos had to teach these new workers how to make good-looking jars and bottles with their hands.
However, the family could never tell anyone all the details about making pottery and porcin. That was also what Su Binn had intended. She did not allow the Taos to leak the workshop’s secrets.
The weather had be increasingly colder, so the embroidery shop made more down jackets. Someone bought one and soon realized how much warmer it made them feel, so more people bought one for themselves immediately after.
Still, down jackets were not cheap, so most bought them for their elders at home instead of for themselves. After all, older adults could not resist the cold as much as younger people. Hence, wearing a down jacket benefited them greatly.
It also disyed one’s filial piety. However, those who bought down jackets were reluctant to wear them at home and would only do so when going to the market or town.
Everyone discussed duvets and down jackets, “I didn’t expect this thing to feel so nice and warm.’
“It’s not like I wear a down jacket whenever I go out. I don’t feel cold even in the coldest weather. With my legs wrapped, my entire body will feel warm.”
“It’s just a little expensive. Fortunately, my daughter earns plenty of money at the tofu factory. I can still afford a down jacket.”
“My family and I didn’t buy down jackets for ourselves, but we bought a duvet instead. We can stay warm at night when we go to sleep now. We barely feel the winter’s cold at night.”
“This is excellent stuff. Only Miss Su can make such a thing.”
“She also made wine and opened a winery. After tasting her wine once, I no longer want to drink the others.”
“Indeed. her wine is more fragrant. and the price is low. Other wines can neverpare to Miss Su’s.”
Everyone felt spoilt after drinking wine from Su l s Winery. They no longer wanted to drink ordinary wine.
“Miss Su has done many miraculous things. Everyone would still struggle if not for her making things like these and providing job opportunities for us. No one would be able to receive wages and bonuses like now. Nheless, we’re more willing to buy down jackets and wine now.”
“Exactly. My family and I are more willing to eat meat asionally. In the past, I wouldn’t even be willing to use oil when cooking, let alone meat.”
Everyone could not help but sigh with emotion whenever they discussed these things. They all reminisced about their bitter-sweet experiences. Therefore, they cherished their current lives even more.
Of course, some did not have the opportunity to work with the Su family. Still, they tried to better themselves and be more diligent and dutiful when they heard this discussion.
They hoped they could finally get hired when the Su family inevitably built more shops or factories in the future.
Those who failed to get a job at the embroidery shop became more dutiful to their parents, treated their siblings better, and worked more diligently at home. Later, these people finally got hired when the embroidery shop opened up for hiring again.
Therefore, everyone knew they would have a higher chance of working for the Su family if they worked hard to improve themselves. That was how a better atmosphere formed around Teng He Town.
Meanwhile, Old Madam Li weed the happy asion of Li Dazhuang and Jiang Xiaochengs wedding. The olderdy had arranged a grand wedding for the younger couple by ordering embroidery items and wedding cakes. She even tasked someone to make good food for entertaining the guests.
Everyone started ordering gifts and cakes after Miao Zhizhi and Su Fengchen’s wedding. Su Binn made the cakes and told Su Wenxiu to send them over.
Since Su Wenwu was Li Dazhuangs closest friend, he had to follow the etiquette and be one of Li Dazhuang’s groomsmen. Also, since Li Erying was Su Binn’s student, Su Binn prepared more things and even attended the wedding herself.
Her attendance at the wedding brought great joy to Old Madam Li. The olderdy knew Su Binn could attend because of Li Erying. Many people attending the wedding were shocked when they saw Su Binn there.
Everyone considered it and understood that Su Binn was there because Li Erying was her female apprentice who studied medicine with her. Therefore,
Su Binn simply had to attend the couple’s wedding.
Some even became upset and regretted not sending their daughters to study medicine. After all, the many benefits of being Su Binn’s female apprentice greatly outweighed one’s reputation.
Old Madam Li, Li Dazhuang, and Li Erying were thrilled on that day, and so was Miss Jiang. From now on, the two families would be one. Old Madam Li even tidied up two rooms for the Jiangs to live in.
Her heart finally settled after seeing her eldest grandson and Jiang Xiaocheng getting married. She could finally rest assured as her eldest son could start a family now.
‘If they have a child, I can hold my great-grandchild and care for them,’ Old Madam Li was delighted at that thought.
Then she looked at Li Erying beside Su Binn and felt the young child’s demeanor had changed since she started learning medicine from Su Binn. Li Erying had a more schrly demeanor; she had grown taller while her skin had be fairer.
Old Madam Li noticed her granddaughter was much prettier than before and could not help but sigh inwardly, ‘The Su family are so good at helping people grow and improve.’
Li Erying and the other female apprentices ate well at Su Binn’s ce during that period. They also drank the Su family’s water—Su Binn’s spiritual water. Hence, it was only natural that their physical fitness would improve.
Nioreover, Li Eryings skin glowed, and her appearance seemed much more mature. Old Madam Li felt she had made the best decision by letting her granddaughter learn medicine from Su Binn.
The people who had worried too much about their reputation now looked at Li Erying enviously. Luckily, Old Madam Li decided for her granddaughter.
‘This is just the beginning. My granddaughter will have better fortune if she stays by Miss Su l s side.’
With that thought in mind, Old Madam Li could not stop smiling.
Meanwhile, Li Erying was thrilled to see Su Binn there and looked at her teacher with admiration. After all, Li Erying wanted to work hard toward bing a teacher.
Su Binn had specially styled Li Eryings hair for the special asion, making the younger girl look beautiful yet more yful. Therefore, the guests attending the wedding could not help but stare at Li Erying, especially the other youngdies.
They became a little emotional after seeing Li Eryings gorgeous appearance.
Someone approached her and said excitedly, “Erying, it hasn’t been long since
Ist saw you, but you’ve already be so beautiful!”
Li Erying did not notice this, but her grandmother and siblings said her skin had be fairer and more beautiful.
In the past, she had to work for her family all year and constantly exposed herself to the sun, so her skin became rough and dark. She thought she was not as beautiful as most other girls, but everyone started saying she had be more beautiful..
