Chapter 45: Sister-in-law Qin

Now that their land has been planted, he has nothing else to do. Other children of his age in the village were all sent to the town's shop as apprentices, even Brother Baoshan of the big house was no exception, working as a junior in a restaurant.

He was the only one who had studied for a year and spent a lot of money, but he was not as capable as those who were apprentices. At the very least, they can lighten the burden on the family a little.

Thinking like this, Liqing became more and more guilty, he took a scythe, and wanted to go to the mountains.

But before he could take a few steps, he was called down.

"Xiaoqing, where are you going?"

Hearing the familiar voice, Liqing immediately stopped, and when she looked back, it was really Qin's sister-in-law.

Sister-in-law Qin was wrapped in a headscarf, but even if she was a headscarf, she couldn't stop the sweat like a thunderstorm, and Liqing saw that Qin's sister-in-law's hair was dripping.

"Sister-in-law, what are you doing here?" Liqing didn't answer Sister-in-law Qin's question, but asked rhetorically.

Sister-in-law Qin's expression froze at once, and she didn't know whether she should cry or laugh.

In the end, she could only keep her head down, "I'm here to do something." ”

"Doing things? What do you do in this wilderness? Liqing immediately asked again.

Sister-in-law Qin didn't answer positively, "Don't ask your children, you haven't told me what you're doing up the mountain, now those wolves, wild boars and other things are active, don't go in if you're a child, it's not safe!" ”

Liqing ignored Qin's sister-in-law's concern, because Qin's sister-in-law's avoidance of talking about it made him feel very strange.

Liqing looked up and down again, and found that Qin's sister-in-law's back basket actually contained a series of farm tools that could only be used when clearing the wasteland, such as hoes and pickaxes.

"Sister-in-law, didn't you embarrass your wife and let you go to the wasteland alone?" Liqing's eyes immediately widened, and sure enough, he still underestimated the badness of human nature.

There is a rule in this dynasty that peasants can open up wasteland, and the land they open up belongs to themselves, and they do not need to pay taxes within three years of registration. Because of this preferential policy, many poor families have gone to open up wasteland.

However, in the end, not many were opened, and many people gave up halfway. Even if it is opened, he gritted his teeth and swore that he would not open it a second time in this life.

Because this clearing is really tiring.

Wasteland is generally a wasteland mountain, and there are not only many dead vines and dead trees on the mountain, but also a lot of gravel in the soil. Clearing the wasteland not only has to cut the vines, cut down the trees, dig out the roots, but also pick out the gravel inch by inch, and finally dig up the soil......

Generally, it takes two or three men to open a piece of wasteland, but the Qin family actually only called Qin's sister-in-law a woman's family to open up the wasteland.

This, what a vicious heart!

And Qin's sister-in-law was about to cry when she was said, and she was seen by a junior that she was in an embarrassing situation......

"This is also a family can't ......," Qin's sister-in-law tried her best to justify, and she didn't know whether she was explaining to Liqing or comforting herself.

"There's no way, when I just came back, I saw Third Brother Qin drinking at the entrance of the village." Liqing had a cold face, the big man in the family had nothing to do all day long, but asked the woman to go out and sell her life, what kind of relatives is this.

"Second sister-in-law, this family, you don't need to stay at all!" Liqing's tone became more and more stern.

"If I don't stay in the Qin family, where can I go. My own mother died a long time ago, my father and I had no trace three years ago, and I am now a lonely widow......" Sister-in-law Qin finally couldn't help it, and hid her face and cried.
