Chapter 607
The next day, Dong Huaihua took advantage of the Lantern Festival and went from street to street shouting with a loudspeaker, saying that the brigade wanted girls to braid straw patterns.
Women braided grass, cattail fans and materials as the members earned work points for their labour.
Generally, not everyone was able to do this kind of side job. Han Yongfang liked to pick those who were diligent, clever and quiet.
He hated gossip the most.
Therefore, some people could not be chosen even if they have skills, but they could only hold back from expressing their opinions.
At this time, after Dong Huaihua asked women to braid the plants, all of them became energetic.
Spring ploughing was coming next and the men were ploughing the manure in the ground. There was still some time before the spring planting commenced and the women were still free for the time being, so they could do some side jobs.
But Dong Huaihua only wanted girls between the ages of 9 and 15, unmarried women or old wives!
Although everyone had their opinions, since the brigade assigned this job to Dong Huaihua, even if she said so, it would be difficult to get Han Yongfang to interfere.
Therefore, those who have girls of such requirements at home happily send their girls to work to earn work points.
Dong Huaihua was responsible for recruiting people and Lin Lan was responsible for writing the script. Letting the girls work for a few days to get familiar with each other would be ideal before they start talking about other things.
Talking about such things straight from the get-go would make the girls shy and resistant.
Lin Lan went to the brigade during the day to arrange the team of girls with Dong Huaihua. In the meantime, she observed that Yanyan and Caihua were indeed here as well.
