Lin Qiaoling raised her head in some surprise, "Mother, we will embroider in the future, this hand is rough, people will not give us good material to embroider, and the silver will naturally be less, and you can't blame our mother for not making efforts at that time......."
The old lady had a gloomy face, and her triangular eyes were shining, "As far as you can say, let you pull the plough is not for you to plow the ground by hand, where can you get tired of your hands, not to mention those who have not, miss the season, everyone has to drink the north wind in winter......"
Chen Dajiang pulled his daughter-in-law's sleeve on the side, asking her to say less, at this time it was useless to say too much, the old lady had spoken, she had to go if she didn't go, and if she said it, it was equivalent to not saying it, and it made the old lady angry.
Pan'er and Yue'er were really a little worried about this sick brother at home, so they instructed and instructed, and by the way, they also told Chen Yuzhi about boiling medicine.
"Sister-in-law, remember to let Bao'er drink medicine......"
Chen Yuzhi's face was full of impatience with some baby fat, "Let's go, I still don't know about this, hurry up, don't bother me here......"
It's not that Chen Yuzhi doesn't know how to do the work at home, and Chen Fang's mother, who is a mother, will not love her children and raise her daughter, this girl will hurt a little more in her mother's house, and she can't help but say it when she goes to her mother-in-law's house in the future.
Although she loves her daughter, she has taught everything that should be taught, but she is not willing to let her daughter do those jobs that are not too high-tech, and let Chen Yuzhi follow Lin Qiaoling Niang every day to make money without any effort, even if the life is not good in the future, she can support her family by relying on this ability.
But she didn't want to do these irritable housework, but now that there was a shortage of people at home, she couldn't do it even if she didn't want to, so many pairs of eyes stared at her.
If she can let her two sisters-in-law and niece do it in normal times, she will never interfere in housework, she can be lazy.
Yue'er and a few of them used to say that they were helping to pull pears, but in fact, they were replacing livestock with manpower, and one person was pulling the people in front and behind them to support the plough sticks to go to the ridges, whether it was a person pulling or a person who was helping pears, it was not an easy job.
At first, it was better, but after a long time, the shoulder was scorching and painful from the rope, and they could feel that the skin on it must be red and swollen without lifting the clothes, especially after a long time, they didn't have much strength to pull it at all.
Yue'er and they were tired, so they replaced the next person, and the rest of them went to pick up weeds and crop stubble, and there was no time to rest anyway.
Three people with three plowsticks, several women took turns to fight, and even Chen Dajiang, who was silent, felt sorry for his daughter-in-law and children.
The dark red face was covered with sweat because of the sun or tiredness.
"Dad, why don't we find a cow to pull, you see how many of them women have any strength, embroider at home all day long, and they are not people who work in the fields, my mother is also old, and she can't do this, let's not save those two dollars, if people are tired, it will not be a matter of two dollars."
The old man wiped the sweat from his cheeks and sighed, "You don't want to do it, what can I do if your mother doesn't let go, the current conditions at home, it's better to save something, there are places everywhere to use money, and there are many idlers in the family, if you don't do this, the future will be even more sad......"
As soon as the old man said this, Chen Dajiang, who was still full of hope, lowered his head and was dumbfounded, what his father said was true, but he just felt sorry for his wife and children, what about the two daughters, how can they compare with the boy, they usually don't go to the ground much, this is a strong work, and I don't know if the child and her mother can hold it.
Lin Qiaoling is so tired now that she can't even say many nice words with her most clever mouth, "Mother, why don't you string it with Tunzi, find someone to help us, and then we will help them do it." ”
The old lady glared at her angrily, she was also tired, and this tiredness was naturally big. You string it up and show me, it's all when it's time to rush to plough and plant, who wants to come over and help, every family can't wait to plant the land as soon as possible, you have a big face, I don't have that ability, you have the ability to find someone to come over, I don't have any opinion......"
Seeing that the old lady continued to pull the plough stick, Lin Qiaoling could only stare dryly, the old lady could stand it, what else could she do, continue to do it.
Xinghua and Pan'er looked at the neighbors who were working with them, and their eyes were full of envy, "Second sister, look at everyone who uses cattle to plough the land, how is our family different from others, how tired is this......"
The lotus sighed, got up and poured the grass roots in the basket to the side of the road, and her fair little face became a little pink from the sun.
"Okay, you two are envious, hurry up and work, otherwise the milk will be good again."
Yue'er and Bai Xiumei are two people who haven't spoken from beginning to end, Yue'er is like an old cow, the old lady is tired, she has to go over to replace people, in fact, the reason why the old lady came to the field is just to give a beating to these women in the family, and she can't let an old lady do this Cow and Horse are tired, just enough to block the mouth of Youyou.
Bai Xiumei didn't say anything because she didn't want her little daughter to be tired, she did more, and the child didn't do less.
The old girls and children on the Chen family's side all went to work in the fields, and the people working nearby talked while doing it.
"Look at what the old Chen family is going to do, how much can the child do, it's still a female doll, why don't the two grandsons of the old family come back to work, let a few little girls work in the field, I really can't see which one their family is singing......"
"Hmph, which one else can it be, just to save money, but I don't understand, why didn't Old Chen come back earlier, this work is not a matter of one or two days, and when it is time to farm, is it difficult for him not to know?"
The people in the field have different opinions, but basically they feel sorry for these children, but they don't have the extra effort to help, and they still have a lot of work to do in the field, just express some emotion in the conversation.
Yue'er, who is working, doesn't know what everyone thinks, she feels that her shoulders don't seem to be her own, they are numb, she doesn't know that it hurts, and her stomach is a little hungry and unbearable.
Chen Dahu looked at the eldest daughter's stumbling steps, and then raised his eyes to look at the child's shoulders, although he used shoulder pads, but he could see that the top was already wet, and he didn't know whether it was sweat or broken skin, his eyes couldn't help but be full of mist, he couldn't help but say, "Dad, let's rest for a while, the children can't bear this ......"
