Su Zhengde laughed heartily before saying, Sure, Binglan. I can do it for you. Ive seen the blueprints, but Im curious about this thing. I cant wait to see what itll look like once my team builds it. Im sure itll look terrific.

He loved looking at the blueprints his niece designed. He felt a sense of achievement just looking at them.

Meanwhile, Su Xueye looked at his grandfather and feigned disappointment. Grandpa, I want to build the staff dormitories, too. Ive never built such a thing before.

Su Zhengde replied, All right, Ill build the winery then.

I was just joking with you, Grandpa. After all, Aunt Binglan says she still has many more things for us to build.

Su Binglan looked at the blueprints and thought it would be great if the duo could build a multi-story building. However, concrete did not exist in that era yet. If it did, the duo could build a taller building.

Fortunately, Su Binglan still had much more land and did not want to do that to avoid attracting attention.

Its best to keep a low profile for now. Ill build these things according to the architectural style of this era.

Then she revealed another blueprint and said, Uncle Zhengde, Id like you guys to help me make this, too.

Whats this, Binglan? Su Zhengdes eldest son looked at the blueprint curiously.

Su Binglan then explained the blueprint contents in detail. After hearing her explanation, everyone nodded. So its a small dining cart with wheels to make it more convenient for pus.h.i.+ng.

Itll be easier to set up a stall in town with a cart like this. Look, there are cabinets below for storing items, too. Everyone discussed the small dining carts structure in amazement. Everyone was curious and could not wait to build it.

Dont worry, Binglan. Ill make it for you tomorrow, Su Xueyes father said.

Im relieved to hear that. Su Binglan smiled, then asked about the embroidery shops progress.

Dont worry, Aunt Binglan, Su Xueye said, Well complete it in a few days according to your specifications. There wont be any issues.

Im not worried about you at all, Su Binglan spoke with them for a while more and left shortly after.

Many villagers and their families could not sleep that night. They planted their seeds and had nothing else to do. They became excited when Chief Su made another announcement.

They had heard from Chief Su that the tofu factory would hire six more people.

Although only six spots were available, everyone in the village eyed them. Many of them discussed it overnight.

The factory is finally hiring again!

Chief Su told us that, so it must be true. They will do interviews tomorrow morning.

I know how good my eldest daughter-in-laws job is at the factory. So, Ill try sending my second and third sons for the interview.

Its great that the factory is hiring again. I used to have terrible headaches and couldnt work there, but Im fine after taking the medicine Miss Su prescribed me. Now I can go for the interview tomorrow morning. I hope I get in this time.

It would be perfect if you could work there, my dear wife.

I know. Ill work in the morning and night so that I wont delay the housework.

I can help care for our family. Ill cook for you before you go to the interview tomorrow.

Ill make you something delicious tomorrow morning, my dear girl. Sleep well tonight and be in good spirits for tomorrows interview, okay?

Dont worry, Mother. Ill answer every question Miss Su asks me.

Yeah, the factory pays well, so you must perform your best.

Many families discussed the interview and went to bed later than usual. No one would be willing to keep their candles, or oil lamps lit on regular days. However, they made an exception that night.

Everyone busied themselves the following morning. Su Binglan went to the factory with her mother after breakfast to conduct the interviews. Shen Qiuhua was about to start preparing the stinky tofu, too.

Su Binglan expected the queue to be shorter when she arrived at the factory. Instead, the exceedingly long queue startled her. She only expected a few people to attend the interview as she would only hire six more people. There were even more people compared to the first time.

Su Binglan thought that many villagers did not attend the first interview because they did not know about the factorys situation. However, she noticed many familiar faces during this interview.

Someone happily told Su Binglan, Im in good health now thanks to the medicine you gave me, Miss Su. I wont feel tired if I work now. Instead, I feel more energized.

Miss Su, the medicine you gave me was very effective. My mother is in much better health now, and I no longer have to stay home to care for her. She wakes up by herself now so that I can come out and work without delay.

I came for the first interview, Miss Su. Ive been working very hard recently, so you dont have to worry because Ill do my best if I can work at the factory. Miss Su, I dont even know how to thank you.

Ive already planted the rapeseeds you mentioned, Miss Su. I have so much free time now and want to work for you. Ill be proud to work for you.

Miss Su, my eldest daughter-in-law works in your factory, so I know your factorys quality. Since Im in good health now, I hope to work for you. I can do many things.

Everyone had attended the interview to answer Su Binglans questions, but they could not help but show their grat.i.tude and chatter when they saw her. They said everything they had kept in their hearts.

Then Su Binglan understood why so many people came. They had taken the

medicine she had prescribed them and recovered. They no longer had health issues and could work at the factory.

Su Binglan was delighted to see everyone, especially because everyone was high-spirited.

No wonder there are so many familiar faces here.

She could feel how much everyone wanted to work at the factory. She thought about how she would officially open her embroidery shop in a few days and asked them if they knew how to do needlework.

Everyone became even more excited when they heard her asking about needlework. The villagers already knew that a few people had started embroidering for Su Binglan.

Everyone wanted to work for Su Binglan.

Miss Su, I know how to do needlework. I made the clothes Im wearing for the interview.

Miss Su, I know how to sew and patch, but I dont know how to make clothes.

I just know basic needlework.

I-I havent learned needlework, but Im willing to try..
