The children looked at her with complaints. They wanted to have a good meal during the New Year. Their mother had been fired for her bad behavior, and the children couldn't hold their heads up high in the village when they went out to play. After leaving Yunkelai, Xiao Wan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Yuntai Town seemed a little deserted at this time. Perhaps it was because the New Year had not yet ended, and the people were greedy for the rare relaxing days of the year, and were still visiting relatives and friends, looking very happy.
There are still five days until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and Xiao Wan has decided to open Qilixiang on the sixteenth day of the first lunar month so that the store employees can have a few more days of rest.
The people in the shop have been working diligently and conscientiously this year. The ancients were quite down-to-earth, and they were willing to put in the hard work. As a boss, of course, I like such employees.
Relationships between people are interdependent. With such a motivated employee, Xiao Wan must of course be a good boss. In addition to a generous year-end bonus, there is also a full half-month vacation.
The vermicelli workshop also took a break after completing the last batch of orders before the New Year, and also distributed generous New Year gifts.
The vermicelli workshop is managed by Aunt Xiao San, and I check the accounts every month, so I feel at ease.
Aunt Xiao San made an indelible contribution. In addition to doubling everyone's salary, Xiao Wan also gave Aunt Xiao San a bonus of fifty taels of silver notes. The rest of the people were given different bonuses as rewards.
In addition, Xiao Wan followed the practice of modern companies to give holiday gifts to employees, and gave each worker in the workshop a can of oil, ten kilograms of meat, and twenty kilograms each of rice and flour.
The employees of Xide Workshop were full of gratitude. Ordinary people would not be willing to buy so many of these things.
No family was rich these days. A can of oil could feed the whole family for more than a year, and meat and rice and flour were only eaten during festivals.
Looking at the white rice and flour, everyone was excited and had tears in their eyes.
The whole family can have a prosperous New Year. It is hard to find such a host family even with a lantern.
For a while, every family in Kaoshan Village who worked in the workshop was overjoyed, and they had nothing but gratitude to the Xiao family.
The status of women in the family has risen sharply. The parents-in-law have taken the initiative to take on most of the housework. The more stingy mothers-in-law no longer have bad faces when they see the New Year gifts and bonuses brought home by their daughters-in-law. They ask their daughters-in-law about their well-being, which makes them feel uneasy.
Their husbands are even more considerate. Just kidding, those who can be selected as employees in the workshop are very outstanding. It is a great honor for men, and it must be even better for their wives.
Some families that used to favor boys over girls have changed their attitudes towards girls a lot, and are rarely mean to girls. Parents are also proud that their daughters can work in the Xiao family workshop, so it becomes easier to arrange marriages for them.
It would be great if the Xiao family workshop could be expanded and male workers could be hired.
For a moment, the village near the mountain was filled with joy, and the atmosphere of the New Year became more intense.
Those who were not selected to work in the Xiao family workshop couldn't help but feel itchy, and they all hoped that the business of the Xiao family workshop would get better and better so that they could recruit more people.
As for those employees who were selected but then fired because of dishonesty or cunningness, everyone despises them.
With such good welfare benefits, he still feels tired and has so many small tricks. It's really not decent.
Without even looking around or asking around within a hundred miles, the people in Kaoshan Village could guarantee that there was absolutely no boss as generous as the Xiao family.
It’s really greedy. Bah, what a waste of the spot!
The female employees who were fired had a hard time this New Year and were filled with regret.
To be honest, although the work in the Xiao family workshop was tiring, it was not as tiring as farming. Moreover, the lunch provided was all oily and fat-filled. If I had the food at home, I would only eat it during festivals.
What was wrong with me at that time that I gave up such a good job and insisted on going through so much trouble?
The men in the family were even more disrespectful to her. Some of them had bad tempers, when they thought of the rice, flour and meat distributed by the workshop and saw the happy faces of other people, they became furious and started beating their wives.
The men also feel resentful. Originally, their wives were chosen to work in the workshop, which was something they could brag about among the men. After all, only hardworking and capable wives could be chosen.
Now that's great. After bragging for just two days, I became the object of ridicule among men. This gap makes people feel angry and hateful, but helpless.
The children looked at her with resentment. They also wanted to have a good meal during the New Year. Their mother was fired because of her bad behavior, and the children could not hold their heads up when they went out to play in the village.
