Liu Er only left, the smile on Yuzhi's face had not yet receded, and Red Ginseng took advantage of Liu Sanmei's entry into the house, and hurriedly whispered to Yuzhi: "Sister Yuzhi, you didn't say anything important in the house with the second master before, right?" ”

Thinking of the small rosewood box that Liu Er handed over to him for safekeeping, Yuzhi secretly guarded and said, "What's wrong?" ”

Although she can see that red ginseng is simple-minded, not like a person with bad intentions, but the heart of guarding against others is indispensable.

Glancing back at the empty courtyard, Red Ginseng said in a more cautious tone: "The third sister has been squatting at the door to eavesdrop before, and the servant is soft-spoken, and she doesn't dare to stop it. ”

"Could it be that Liu Sanmei actually got the idea of private money?"

Thinking like this, Yuzhi didn't dare to be careless, and took advantage of Liu Sanmei's absence, she simply went back to the house again.

When she went out again, she clearly saw Liu Sanmei sweeping the floor in front of her window with a broom, and Red Ginseng had an expression that dared not speak.

Yuzhi's heart was like a mirror, but he smiled quietly: "Third sister, is there any other work I need to do at home?" ”

Liu Sanmei said without thinking: "My mother has something to go to town, my sister-in-law is making breakfast in the kitchen, if the second sister-in-law doesn't dislike the smoke, go to help cook." ”

Liu's kitchen is in the backyard, separated from the pigsty by a tattered wall, Yuzhi had vaguely seen a tall and thin woman leading a teenage child to light a fire before the pigsty, she also took a photo yesterday in the happy hall, it was Liu Er's sister-in-law Wu and nephew Liu Taiping.

Yuzhi naturally wanted to get acquainted with the people of the Liu family as soon as possible, so he nodded without thinking, and took the red ginseng hand to go to the back kitchen.

Liu Sanmei said again: "Second sister-in-law, our kitchen is narrow, you can go alone, I'll take the red ginseng out to cut the pigweed, and dig some wild vegetables by the way." She has to live in our house, she has to work, otherwise my mother should be scolded when she comes back, don't you say? ”

In order to stay in the Liu family, Red Ginseng quickly nodded again and again without thinking about it, and took advantage of the gap between Liu Sanmei to get the back basket and sickle, and hurriedly tiptoed into Yuzhi's ear and whispered: "Sister Yuzhi, the maid always feels that this third sister is full of bad water, and I am staring at her, and I am not afraid that she will harm you behind her back." ”

Yuzhi didn't expect Red Ginseng to be so cautious at such a young age, and couldn't help but have a little more affection for Red Ginseng, and gradually understood why Liu Er wanted her to stay by his side.

After sending Liu Sanmei and red ginseng out of the hospital, Yuzhijing came to the back kitchen.

At this time, Liu Taiping, who was short, thin and black, was squatting in front of the stove and reading the "Three Character Classic" while adding firewood, while the unkempt Wu was staying in front of the pot to boil corn batter.

Seeing Yuzhi enter the door, Wu hurriedly hid half of the pig's trotter on the chopping board in his pocket, and said in a panic: "Brother and sister, although this pig's trotter is left over from yesterday's banquet, it stands to reason that it should be eaten by grandmother, but my man's leg was discounted by your man some time ago, and I want to secretly take this pig's trotter to make up for him, you ...... You won't tell your mother, will you? ”

Wu's face is yellow and thin, his coarse linen clothes are full of patches, and bruises can be seen everywhere on his arms, obviously not having a good time in the Liu family.

Thinking of what happened to him in the Zhao family in the past three years, Yuzhi felt a little sympathetic to the Wu family, shook his head again and again, and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, you are serious, how can I sue?" ”

"Then you can help watch the porridge in the pot, and I'll go see your eldest brother."

While Wu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, he pulled Liu Taiping up and left, and when she rubbed shoulders with Yuzhi, she tightly covered the pig's trotters hidden in her arms, as if she was afraid that Yuzhi would regret it.

Yuzhi has been doing housework for three years in the Zhao family, even if her legs can't move and she has to cook with a wooden stick.

Now she is nimble with her hands and feet, and she is naturally very quick in the trivial work in the kitchen, boiling cornmeal batter and cleaning the kitchen very skillfully.

By the time a pot of oily and salty thick cornmeal batter is ready, the dirty, mosquito-infested, foul-smelling kitchen has been renovated.

Liu Taiping smelled the smell and went into the kitchen, holding an earthen pot about the size of a basin in his hand.

didn't talk to Yuzhi, Liu Taiping ran away after filling nearly half of the hot cornmeal batter in the pot, and ran out of the hospital in one breath before saying in a breathless tone: "Second aunt, my mother said that she would take care of my father, and let you send your great-grandmother's breakfast to the old man's room." ”

"This girl just got married and was called by the current people?"

Yuzhi obviously didn't expect that the seemingly dull Wu family was good at stealing and playing tricks, and took advantage of the absence of Ma, Liu Sanmei and others to directly push all the housework to her.

Thinking that he was still a little distressed and sympathetic to the Wu family before, for a while, Yuzhi really couldn't cry or laugh.

What made her most depressed was that when she married Liu Er yesterday, she didn't see Liu Er's grandmother Shangguan at all, and now she doesn't know which room Shangguan lives in.

In desperation, Yuzhi had to pick up a bowl of hot cornmeal batter and find it room by room.
