Actually, labor work only cost 20 wen in the market, and lunch was not provided. The workers were under strict watch all the time and had no spare moment to slow down. But even if that was the case, there were still many people who would want to work there.
Qiao Xuan could not be so particular towards her own family.
Labor work was very tiring and she needed to make sure that she paid well.
Shao Sanlang and Shao Dalang were not enough. So Qiao Xuan asked Shao Dalang to ask their cousins for help.
Qiao Xuan stressed repeatedly this time. "If someone asks about this, just say that you are paid 20 wen a day, understand?"
20 wen was a normal and slightly high price. 60 wen would draw too much attention from the villagers.
Qiao Xuan wanted to keep a low profile. She just did not want to be the center of the attention, in case she exposed herself easily.
She did not want Qiao Wei to do anything crazy to her again.
