Chapter 657: Jealous (6)_1
Time slipped forward again, the workshop had opened for full operation. Yang Ruxin drew several albums and let Gu Yao send a message to Uncle Qi, hoping for a face-to-face meeting.
However, the response they received was that Qi Jingyi had returned to the capital, but he left a message that he would be back within a month at most.
Yang Ruxin was not in a hurry; after all, furniture making was a slow process in ancient times. Everything had to be handcrafted bit by bit. To produce all the furniture depicted in her albums, she estimated it would take no less than half a year. Therefore, she let Yang Rulin start by making samples.
Yang Rulin worked with great enthusiasm every day, leading a few cousins his great-uncles had selected, along with his grandfather, from dawn to dusk, sometimes even staying the night.
But this very thing caused discontent, particularly from Chen Yingzi.
"I’m saying, Dad, what is Great Grandpa thinking?" Chen Yingzi looked at her own husband, Yang Guowei, with dissatisfaction, "What, only those few are his grandsons? Isn’t Ruqing also a Yang? Why is Ruqing not used in the workshop?"
"Ruqing doesn’t like carpentry, what’s there to nag about?" Yang Guowei frowned, "You ask your son if he’s cut out to be a carpenter."
"Even if he can’t be a carpenter, he could still be an apprentice, right? Why exclude our family?" Chen Yingzi was very resentful, "This is favoritism. It must be because of your incompetence. They’re all grandsons, so why such a big difference?"
"Mom, I don’t like carpentry," Yang Ruqing also felt helpless. Great Grandpa had asked him, but he really didn’t like carpentry. His ambition was to be a soldier. He wanted to go to the battlefield, to be a Great General.
