Chapter 14 Laundry
"Aunt Fifth is going to do the laundry?" Qiaoqiao rolled her eyes and looked at the wooden basin placed in the courtyard, "Do you know how to wash clothes?" ”
"Yes...... Yes. Yang Liu replied uncertainly, she has a fully automatic washing machine at home, pour laundry detergent, throw dirty clothes into the washing machine, and press the start button with her fingers to wash the clothes, and she really hasn't washed it a few times. However, because it was a child who asked this, Yang Liu blushed a little.
Qiaoqiao saw that she answered reluctantly, and she also had a little bottom in her heart. For a while, she secretly scolded herself for being quick and speaking so straight, for fear that Yang Liu would annoy her in her heart. "Fifth aunt, you just wash the clothes of the fifth uncle and you, and there are not a few, I still have to go out, can you do it yourself?" Although the Li family is not separated, they have all become their own families, and they usually wash the clothes in each room, and the clothes of the He family are washed by Xiuxiu. Although Qiaoqiao is small, it almost covers the laundry work of the entire three-room.
In a word, Qiaoqiao is young, but she is qualified to guide Yang Liu, a young man in ancient life.
Yang Liu nodded.
"Go out and keep walking, and when you see an old locust tree, you turn left, and then walk a few dozen meters to see the small river." Qiaoqiao pointed outside the fence, saw that Yang Liu nodded understandingly, then turned back and grabbed the grass and wood ashes wrapped in a rag and handed it to Yang Liu: "Fifth aunt, if there is a place that cannot be washed, you can use this, and you will be sure to rub it off." ”
Yang Liu took it and looked at it, and asked dumbfoundedly, "This, this?" "Could it be that this thing has the function of washing clothes in addition to fertilizing the fields?
Qiaoqiao smiled: "We use this for washing clothes here, nothing to make a fuss about." The flower-scented soap in the town costs a hundred yuan, and we are reluctant to use it. If the fifth aunt is fine, I will go to my brother. ”
Yang Liu nodded blankly, watching Qiaoqiao walk away with a basket on his back.
Steady her mind, Yang Liu picked up the wooden basin, thought about putting the grass and wood ashes in it, she didn't believe it, she wore it through, and couldn't get a few clothes, picked up the washing stick, locked the courtyard door and walked towards the river.
According to Qiaoqiao's prompt, Yang Liu found a small river in a row, and it was indeed a veritable river. The water surface is not too wide, the water is not too deep, standing on the edge of the small river, you can see the stones at the bottom of the river and the small fish fry swimming around, Yang Liu swallowed his saliva, and suddenly wanted to eat fish.
Yang Liu found a relatively flat stone, put down the wooden basin, there were already three or three or two or young or middle-aged women by the river, talking and laughing, but Yang Liu did not know any of them, and could not "feed" the name of the people, so they had to wash their clothes.
According to the laundry habit of his previous life, Yang Liu soaked all the clothes in the basin, hesitated and poured the whole bag of plant ash as washing powder, and stirred evenly.
"Yo, this is Li Cong's daughter-in-law, right?" Suddenly, a voice came, and Yang Liu turned his head, only to see a middle-aged woman in her fifties standing next to her with a wooden basin and asking.
Yang Liu hurriedly stood up and made a blessing salute: "Yes, what is this aunt called?" ”
The woman took a step back slightly, tilted her head and said with a smile: "If you are really a thoughtful person, just call me Aunt Guo, I will live in the third household on your left, don't be so polite." Are you alone? ”
Yang Liu nodded: "Yes, why don't we do it together, this place is enough for the two of us to wash clothes." ”
"I just watched you come and have a companion with you." Aunt Guo smiled and put down the wooden basin.
The two talked and laughed, and Yang Liu also knew from Aunt Guo's words that the biggest landlord in Tun was called Li Dagen, and 80% of the people in this village rented his family's land.
"By the way, Li Cong's daughter-in-law, isn't it the day you return to the door today, why are you still washing clothes here? What about Li Cong, why don't you see others? Aunt Guo suddenly changed the topic and asked with a smile.
The movements of Yang Liu's hands seemed to be really, and there was no movement at home. What's going on, everyone forgot the same. Even if she crossed over, she shouldn't be so special, she still wants to be a low-key person. Nima, was she completely abandoned by her mother's family? The in-laws are collectively waiting to see their own jokes.
What a distress! The movements of Yang Liu's hand slowed down, frowning and still thinking about how to answer, Aunt Guo's attention turned away.
"Look, isn't that the 'goose plucking' of our village?" Aunt Guo poked Yang Liu's arm, motioned for her to look, and said gloatingly: "Which one is unlucky to be taken advantage of." ”
Many things don't fall on your head, and you always think that you are far away from yourself. However, it also happened to solve Yang Liu's embarrassment on the issue of returning to the door of the three dynasties.
In the next second, Aunt Guo's tone changed: "Yo, Li Cong's daughter-in-law, that's your family's vegetable patch." ”
