Li Cong's words last night were still very effective, and today Yang Liu was not only not asked to go to the ground, but also stayed in the house with Xiuxiu. Of course, their work is not easy, cooking, tidying up the house, delivering food, taking care of the family's laundry, and being responsible for vacating the small vegetable garden next to the yard.

After eating, the Li family went to the field, and it was seen from the breakfast that Yang Liu was inconvenient, so Xiuxiu took the initiative to wash the dishes. Yang Liu released the chicken, and with his left hand he shoveled half a shovel of firewood ash and sprinkled it in the chicken pen, anyway, now everything that his left hand can do has been done.

Scooping a small half bucket of pig food into the pig food bucket, Yang Liu carried the bucket handle with both hands down, and walked towards the pigsty step by step. Xiuxiu looked at her hard work, stretched out her hand from the water in the pot and wiped it on her apron twice, and stepped forward to take the initiative to stretch out her hand: "Sister-in-law, let's come with me." ”

"No, I can." Yang Liu shook his head and refused, continuing this kind of poignant-looking porterage. The task left by the He family is definitely impossible for Xiuxiu to complete alone, and this task itself also has her share. This one thing is there, if you don't do it, you can't do it, try to move your arms as much as possible, and it won't hurt when you get used to it.

In order to save time during the busy farming season, the clothes at home are all washed together, of course, the sons of the Li family have become a family, and no one will put the **** in it. Yu also contributed a piece of the broken soap block, if it weren't for the soap incident, the family wouldn't have been able to enjoy this kind of treatment, so thinking about it, it can be regarded as stained with Wen's light. After Xiuxiu finished washing the dishes, she picked out some clothes from the big wooden basin in the corner of the courtyard and put them in the small wooden basin, took the soap, picked up the wooden basin and shouted to Yang Liu: "Sister-in-law, I'm going to do the laundry." ”

Hearing Xiuxiu's voice, Yang Liu's movements paused, his left hand held the melon scoop that scooped the pig food and leaned on the pigsty railing, did not see the pig food fall, the pig in the pigsty hummed, the smaller pig also raised the pig's head and arched the melon scoop with the pig's nose, Yang Liu turned his head and responded, poured the pig food into the pig trough, and hit the pig with the back of the melon scoop. I don't know if it's because the pigskin is thick or the left hand is small, the pig only fanned his ears and ignored the willow.

After sweeping the yard, Yang Liu swept out the already wet firewood ash mixed with chicken manure from the chicken pen and threw it into the clearing, washed his hands, and went to the stove again. She plans to boil some boiling water, make some snacks and send them to the field, although she has already started to be busy, but it is not an official start, so the Li family still eats gruel in the morning, I don't know if they will be hungry, anyway, Yang Liu was hungry at this time yesterday. Yesterday I had already treated my stomach badly, and today I have to make sure that my stomach is full no matter what.

Hua Miao carried the basket and greeted He with a smile: "Auntie also cuts wheat." ”

"Ahh He Shi responded, straightened his waist, and when he saw that it was a flower seedling, his face was suddenly full of smiles, and he said, "It's a flower seedling, where are you going?" ”

Hua Miao lifted the basket on the crook of her arm forward, and said with a smile: "Daddy and mother go to the ground, I'll send them water, do you want to drink water, auntie?" ”

"My throat is smoking, give my aunt a bowl." He picked up a handful of hay, wiped his hands twice, and walked out with a smile.

Hua Miao put the basket on the ground, took a blue-edged earthen porcelain bowl, poured some water into it and handed it to He. He Shi stretched out his hand to take it, and then caught a glimpse of the mud in the nails, hurriedly put his hand down, and smiled a little embarrassedly: "Yo, my aunt's hands are dirty"

"It's okay, I'll just wash it later."

He said this with the meaning of testing Hua Miao, but he didn't expect Hua Miao to speak so directly. You enthusiastically call others to drink water, and the used dishes can be washed again behind your back, but you can't dislike others in front of them. He attributed Hua Miao's mistake to being young and ignorant, but he still took the bowl with a smile.

While He was drinking water, Hua Miao shouted to the field again: "A few sisters-in-law want to drink water, I still have it." ”

"Nope."

"Not thirsty."

It was the voice of Yu and Wen, although the two of them and Yang Liu were a little uncomfortable, but they couldn't get used to the flower seedlings. Obviously she is a village girl, but she still learns the style of the girl in the city, and she embroiders in the house every day, and she has never been on the ground. Not to mention making a fire for cooking, it is estimated that this water was also boiled by Hua Miao's father and mother in advance, and told Hua Miao to come to the ground at the hour to save face for Hua Miao. People are really strange, everyone in Tunzi knows Hua Miao's virtues, and He just looks at Hua Miao pleasing to the eye, and he also has the idea of letting Hua Miao be his daughter-in-law.

Xiao He straightened up and looked at the jar in the basket of flower seedlings, and said with a smile: "No need, sister flower seedlings, the family will send water in a while." "It's a superficial effort to hold a few mouthfuls of water in such a big jar. Rural people pay attention to the truth, if you are really thirsty when you work in the fields, how many sips of water are you enough to drink?

In fact, there is still a small half of water in the clay pot they brought, and the He family did this because he didn't marry Hua Miao as a daughter-in-law, and he was unwilling. Fortunately, the fifth brother didn't touch the wheat straw in another field now, and if they were here, they didn't know how to get forward. Xiao He has lingering palpitations about Hua Miao's cheekiness.

Hua Miao glanced at the field, blinked her eyes and said, "Why don't you see Li Wu's sister-in-law, she is on duty today?" "Many people who have more sons and have no separate families are on duty among several concubines, and Hua Miao has also heard Xiuxiu say that she understands a little.

The smile on He's face faded, and he nodded. Letting Yang Liu stay at home was made by the way after she agreed to Lao Wu's request, and there is not much difference between today and tomorrow, and the work at home is not necessarily easy. But now when I heard Hua Miao mention it, He always felt that Yang Liu didn't know anything, and he didn't know how to send water in the hot weather, so he didn't even go to the field to take a walk to see this scene.

In the last confrontation with Yang Liu, Hua Miao fell behind, always thinking about when she could fill in the blockage and vent her evil anger. When she met He today, she was only temporary, and now when she saw He's expression, she knew that He's impression of Yang Liu was not very good, so she worked harder to "persuade" He: "This sun is shining, sweating a lot." Working in the fields is tiring and strenuous, but you have to drink enough water, otherwise it is easy to get heat stroke. The fifth sister-in-law is from the town, where has she been, and she is a young lady, and she has been served by someone every time she gets married, so I am afraid that she doesn't understand this. Wait until I have brought water to my father and mother, and then I will remind my fifth sister-in-law, the new daughter-in-law."

"Yo, fifth brother and daughter-in-law, why did you send water so early, there is still it in the jar. There are a lot of things to do at home, so don't delay. Yu's particularly loud voice came, and Yang Liu felt that there was some enthusiasm in his tone when he heard it.

Although she didn't know why, she still answered and replied loudly, "Yes." Worried that you would be hungry, I made some snacks and brought them over. ”

"Really? What did you do? Don't say I'm a little hungry. Yu rubbed his hands around his waist, and then walked to the ridge, beckoning the other two concubines to rest by the way.

Two hours ago, the nose was not the nose, and the eyes were not eyes, and this sudden enthusiasm always made people feel a little uneasy. No matter how Yang Liu listened, he felt that Yu seemed to be deliberately speaking to others.

The sun was too good, Yang Liu squinted his eyes, and saw the flower seedlings standing with He. Is it for Hua Miao? Yang Liu thought so in his heart, and did not hesitate at his feet, looked down at the winding ridges, and continued to walk.

The smile on Hua Miao's face was a little stiff at this moment, she had just said so many words, and the three of the Yu family were cold and indifferent, and they didn't say a word. Why did Yang Liu just appear so enthusiastic, completely different attitude. Especially the Yu family, didn't he deal with Yang Liu, why did he show so affection just now? Harmony with concubines?

"Mother, I made something to eat." Yang Liu walked up to the two of them and said to He.

He nodded.

Greeted Hua Miao lightly, and Yang Liu turned his head again to beckon Xiao He and a few people to come over and eat something. She took out a piece of green cloth from the basket and spread it in a relatively flat place under the shade of the tree, and took out the crockpot from the basket, and laid out the sweet potato cakes and the washed cucumbers she had picked.

Pouring some water from the crockpot into the crockpot they brought, Yang Liu put the crockpot back in its place, lifted the basket, and said, "Mother, you eat first, I'll send these to the third brother." ”

"Go ahead."
