"Mother-in-law......" Liu Shi opened his mouth cautiously, and checked Song Lingxue's face from time to time.

Song Lingxue couldn't get used to Liu's appearance, but she also knew that she had been deterred by the original owner's obscenity for a long time, and she couldn't change it for a while, so she could only take it step by step and take her time.

"What's the matter! Have the pigs been fed? Song Lingxue opened her mouth and glanced at the pigsty again.

"Hey, after brushing the pots and bowls, stir two scoops of bran with swill, wait for Dabao and them to come back, and feed some grass should be almost the same." After Liu finished speaking, he looked at his mother-in-law's face and said again: "Count the days, tomorrow the people there will rest for half a day, this time I will go to see my father-in-law, what to bring, I will prepare in advance." ”

Song Lingxue was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and then suddenly remembered that the men of the Yao family, Yao Dazhuang, the husband of the original owner, and two sons, the eldest Yao Shishi and the second Yao Shizhu, were all recruited by the officials of Huishui County as civil husbands, and went to dig channels in the Gushui River five miles outside Huaihua Town.

Gushui River is the branch of Huishui River, the largest river in Huishui County, Huishui River is one of the largest rivers in Chongzhou, it flows down from the junction of Dayushan and Xiaoyushan, after dividing five or six branch rivers, and finally flows into Zhenjiang River far away, you must know that Zhenjiang River is one of the main rivers of the Jinghuai Canal, and the importance of Huishui River can be seen once.

And this year's drought in Chongzhou, Huishui County is extremely surrounded by several counties and towns and the villages below, all affected, the Gushui River passed through several towns including Huaihua Town, up to several months of watering water, several sections of the Gushui River riverbed are somewhat dry, can only dredge the river ditch, lead a large amount of water from the Huishui River to flow over, in order to solve the urgent need.

So Yang Zhizhou, who managed Chongzhou, wrote to ask the imperial court to allocate silver taels for the county governments of Chongzhou to dredge the canals.

Although Emperor Xuande has only been on the throne for three years, because the first emperor Emperor Jingwen is benevolent and loves the people, diligent in political affairs, and the ministers in the court are peaceful in civil and military affairs, so the external strife has been eliminated and the internal affairs are peaceful.

The drought in Chongzhou is also a big deal for Dayong of Guotai and Min'an, so Yang Zhizhou's letter was quickly approved, and the imperial court allocated 80,000 taels of snowflake silver for dredging the river, and another 50,000 taels were allocated to order county officials to build waterwheels for the people around the farmland in the counties and towns.

Therefore, this time, all the strong men in the villages under the towns, those who are more than ten and a half years old and less than fifty years old, have been conscripted to be the people who dig channels, and there are also those who are afraid of suffering and fatigue and do not want to go, so they can give some silver to the officials who come to be recruited, and they can also be exempted from doing coolies, but those officials are extremely ruthless, and they need three taels of silver for each place they hang up.

Three taels of silver, that's enough for the expenses of the peasant family for a year or two, and no one in an ordinary peasant family can afford that money, so like most families in Yaojia Village and even the nearby Shiliba Village, Yao Dazhuang's father and son have also become people's husbands.

Fortunately, it was only the male children over the age of fourteen who were listed as conscripts, so Yao Shiqing, who was only thirteen years old, was lucky not to go, otherwise with his thin body, he would not be the material for hard work at all.

Besides, the family is such a reading material, and diligent and studious, at a young age, he is already a student in the town school, and he often gets praise from Mr., and he also said that Shi Qing will try it when he is a child next year.

So the original owner was very glad that the third son didn't have to dig the canal, but although the original owner was stingy, he was not too partial, and he basically treated several children equally, and he would also take the opportunity to take food and drink to visit the Yao family father and son who were doing coolies.

The coolies who worked as coolies in that channel could take turns every five days and rest for half a day, but because they were too far from home, they basically did not go home, but lay down in simple thatched huts to rest.

The original owner went to see it once in his memory, so Song Lingxue probably knew the situation clearly, and he was also deeply troubled by Yao Dazhuang's father and son, who went to repair the river ditch on a hot day, not to mention that the food on the construction site was still poor, and the last time the original owner passed, the father and son were obviously much thinner and darker.

Liu's said well, tomorrow is another rest time, according to the convention, it should be to see, and there are only a few women and children at home, Liu's is timid and dare not go alone, and the family can't do without her, He is afraid of hardship and tiredness, let her walk more than 30 miles, she must have all kinds of complaints, as for Shilan's little girl, she can't show her head, so the only thing left is Song Lingxue.

It's not that Song Lingxue is afraid of heat and walking, I think she won awards in the women's 100-meter sprint and long-distance running when she was in college, plus although the original owner's body is thin, because she often does farm work, her physical fitness is still good, but she is depressed that she finally wants to meet the original owner's husband Yao Dazhuang, which makes her very embarrassed.

According to memory, although the original owner and Yao Dazhuang have been married for many years and have given birth to two sons and two daughters, their feelings are a little cold, the original owner is pungent and irritable but a little afraid of Yao Dazhuang, in fact, Yao Dazhuang just doesn't like to talk, he has a cold face all day long, and there is nothing bad about the original owner, but he rarely communicates with the original owner, and is only responsible for working outside to support the family, and he doesn't care about anything at home, which also makes the original owner's temperament more and more presumptuous, and he thinks he is the master of the house.

Although Tinker Bell said that as long as the final task is completed, Song Lingxue can return to the original place, but to be honest, Song Lingxue is very skeptical, after all, she feels that she has traveled to this inexplicable space, and it is difficult for her to guarantee that she will not be cremated as a corpse, and she may not be able to go back.

So from the very beginning, Song Lingxue made two preparations, one was to complete every task well, strive to complete the final task in the end, and then make sure that her original life has not changed, she regarded it as a dream, and returned to her normal life when she woke up. The other is that Tinker Bell is a liar, and she lives as a pear flower, although it is a little difficult to accept, but it is better to die than to live, she believes that through hard work, she can live a life without food and clothing.

So here's the problem, no matter whether she goes back or not, she has no choice but to be here as Yang Lihua, and after a long time or even a lifetime, she will completely accept everything about Yang Lihua, including her husband and children.

The children are okay, Song Lingxue has also adapted a little in the past two days, and the two daughters are well-behaved and obedient, and the two daughters-in-law can also control as long as they follow the script of the original owner, as for the three sons, they are also very filial, the eldest is very honest, although the second child is a little smart, he still listens to the words of the original owner, and the third child is needless to say, he is a young scholar who is polite and humble and gentle.

It was Yao Dazhuang, the husband of the original owner, who made Song Lingxue a little overwhelmed, although her husband was what she made a wish to beg, but, after all, this is the husband of the original owner, she is now replacing the original owner and becoming Yang Lihua, she and the original owner Zhuang Zhou Mengdie, Butterfly Mengzhuang Zhou.

Ay...... The husband who made a wish and begged for it, he had to accept it even if he cried!
