Chapter 213: Free Labor
Mu Gen and Mu Sheng's legs are broken, only Mu Laohan and the two daughters-in-law and grandsons of the Mu family can work in the house, Liu Yumei and Wang Guiying are both lazy and lazy, and they are lazy when they are lazy when they do farm work.
Especially this year, there is no work, the work is real, the two of them have been secretly complaining for a long time, and now there is still work to do in the field, but the two men can't do anything, so much work is estimated to fall on the two and their sons in the end.
Right now, Mu Shui didn't come just in time to have him, so there was nothing to do with them
After listening to Liu Yumei's words, Liu Qimei said with a look in her eyes, "Don't think I don't know what you are thinking, let me tell you, Aijun and Zhihui are growing up, you give me more work, if you find out that you two are lazy and delay farming, see how I clean you up." ”
"That's that, my mother is right." Liu Yumei replied with a smile.
Wang Guiying lowered her head and rolled her eyes, but said in a low voice, "Okay"
"Go back to sleep, don't delay tomorrow's work." Liu Yumei yawned and waved her hand at the two of them, and Liu Yumei and Wang Guiying both went back to the room with their own thoughts.
Mu Shui lay in the room where he had lived for decades, and for the first time felt desolate, when the conditions were so bad before, when he returned to this room that belonged to him, his heart was sweet, because there was his wife and daughter in this room, and when he came back, he saw the smiling faces of his wife and daughter, no matter how hard and tired it was, it was nothing.
Mu Shui suddenly looked at his right hand, Zhou Shuilian had been sleeping there, but now, his right hand was empty, and now this not too big room was filled with a cold atmosphere everywhere.
The laughter of the past seemed to be still in his ears, Mu Shui couldn't help but shrink his shoulders, and the indescribable loneliness completely surrounded him, and he tossed and turned all night.
When a wave of fatigue hit him in the morning, Mu Shui was a little sleepy, and as soon as he closed his eyes, he was awakened by a knock on the door.
"Mushui, get up, it's time to work in the fields!" Liu Qimei's voice came in from outside.
Mu Shui was dizzy, he turned over, ignored it, but the door was suddenly pushed open by the person outside, this wooden door was not very strong, and the person outside could open it with a hard effort.
"The sun is coming out, you're still sleeping, there's a lot of work in the field, you're too lazy to be like a pig, get up quickly." Liu Qimei saw that Mu Shui was still lying down, she stood at the head of the bed, pinched her waist and pointed at Mu Shui's head and began to scold.
Mu Shui was scolded by Liu Qimei, and immediately woke up, he was not dreaming, he really returned to the Mu family! Mu Shui stood up in a daze.
"Why are you still stunned, hurry up!" Liu Yimei looked at Mu Shui in a daze, and she was not angry, she carried the clothes placed by the window, and whipped Mu Shui's head.
Mu Shui was beaten by Liu Qimei, jumped up reflexively, and said while blocking his head, "Mother, don't fight, I'll go." ”
"Hurry up!" When Liu Qimei heard Mu Shui begging for mercy, she stopped, and then walked out of the door.
Mu Shui hurriedly put on his clothes and walked out of the door, only to see that in the courtyard, Liu Yumei, Wang Guiying, Mu Yonghui, and Mu Aijun were all standing in the courtyard with farm tools.
"Second uncle, you are used to enjoying it, when has this been, you can't get up yet, everyone has to wait for you when you get a job!" Mu Aijun said in a weird way.
"Say a few words, let's go." Liu Qimei said out loud.
Mu Shui followed everyone towards the Mu family's land, the Mu family's land is not much, it is said that there are so many people like the Mu family, it should have been turned over a long time ago, but Mu Gen and Mu Sheng's two families were afraid that they would do more work than each other, so the two families were careless when they started to do things, and this time it dragged on to the end, and then they became anxious.
So he instigated Liu Yimei to go to Mushui to borrow a cow, but the cow only took a day, and not only the cattle were gone, but also the two laborers of Mugen and Musheng were lost
When she got to the ground, Liu Yumei pointed to the ground that had not been turned over once in front of her and pointed to Mu Shui, and asked Mu Shui to turn over the ground, and then she and Wang Guiying had a tacit understanding with Mu Aijun and Mu Yonghui to slowly pull in the ground that had been turned over for a while.
Mu Shui felt as if he had returned to the past, but when he turned around, he didn't see Zhou Shuilian and Mu Xiu following behind him, only he was alone dragging the tools of the plow, slowly moving forward.
Because he didn't eat in the morning, and he didn't sleep at night, this was actually nothing in the past, but in the past year, Mu Shui has long been accustomed to three meals a day, sleeping and resting on time, and now he suddenly changed the rhythm of work and rest, and he was a little uncomfortable.
After Mu Shui ploughed the ground for a while, he was a little dizzy, so he wanted to go to the shade of the tree to rest for a while, but as soon as he put down the rope on his body, Liu Yumei asked loudly, "Second child, what's the matter with you?" ”
"Take a break." Mu Shui said indifferently, Mu Xiu often said that when doing things, we should pay attention to the combination of work and rest, so that the efficiency is higher, otherwise, the spirit is not good when you are tired, but it is easy to do things inefficiently, and in the end, people are also very tired, and things are not done well.
"How much have you done, Gui Ying and I are still working, and you are going to rest? Second, I'm not talking about you, it's been a long time, and even we are not as good as this work. Liu Yumei raised her voice and said.
"Sister-in-law, don't say it, we are poor, we have a daughter who can make money, unlike us, we have never enjoyed any blessings." Wang Guiying looked at Mu Shui and said angrily, if he wasn't so incompetent, he couldn't even control his wife and children at home, how fast and easy it would be to do things with cows at this time.
"What's wrong with having a daughter who can make money, if you make money, you don't give it to Lao Tzu, and if you don't listen to Lao Tzu, it's in vain." After Liu Yumei finished speaking, she burst into laughter.
"Yes."
Mu Shui listened to Liu Yumei and Wang Guiying's singing and harmonizing, and a fire gradually came out in his heart, what did he do all this for, these people didn't appreciate it, and they still had to say such things, which was too chilling.
It's just that even if he is angry, Mu Shui still endures it, otherwise where can he go, Zhou Shuilian doesn't want him anymore, he is homeless
Mu Shui silently put the rope on his body again and continued to plow, but Liu Yumei and Wang Guiying looked at each other and smiled, and continued to be lazy.
The wheat harvested in the spring has already been bagged by each household, and the township has already sent out a notice of public grain payable by each family, which is 80 catties per mu according to the division of land to households and public ownership.
