Chapter 20: Let's go play with him
Ke Rong took his work seriously, and did not let go of every corner, and there was no young lady's frame at all. Maybe it's been too long since I've been in the family. It made Liang Xueyin feel very sad for her. Lowered his eyes did not dare to look at her. She shouldn't have known that her father had died, and how sad she would have been if she did. Just recovered from a serious illness, let's not tell her about this matter yet, and talk about it when she recovers well in the future.
Liang Xueyin sighed.
The two of them had just finished cleaning the room, and were about to go out when the maid from earlier hurried in with a sad face. stepped forward and grabbed Ke Rong's hand, led him to the backyard, and complained unrelentingly:
"Just now, I sorted out so many dirty clothes, with blood and mud. A few of the laundry workers behind us can't finish washing until dark, you just came, give you a practice, try if you can do this job, there is so much work waiting for us to do in the front yard. So, I'll hand over these clothes to you to wash first, and we'll come back to help you as soon as we've finished the work in front of us in the front yard. The sisters are warm-hearted and won't let you do so much work alone. Oh, I forgot to tell you, just call me Sister Zhang. What about you? What's the last name? ”
"My surname is Ke, Mu Keke." Ke Rong said.
Sister Zhang didn't really want to hear her say this, and waved her hand irritably, without squeaking. Then opened the backyard door, Liang Xueyin thought it was too much, there were no more than two hundred, after all, there were not many people living in such a place, and one person could not hold up more than two hundred pieces of laundry, but he didn't expect that there were so many clothes piled up in the courtyard of the backyard, one big pot on the left and one big pot on the right, which was higher than her. Liang Xueyin was really convinced. This has to be the clothes of how many people and how many days. A pile of piles taller than her.
This has to be done by Ke Rong alone, and he has to be so tired that he has to go to the pharmacy.
"Sister Zhang, do you have to wash all these clothes out in a day?" Ke Rong didn't believe that the truth would be what he said, so he asked humbly.
She did, however, nod. He trotted to the well and took a pestle, stuffed it in Ke Rong's hand, pointed to the soap corner resting on the ground next to the well, and said, "You don't need me to teach you how to wash clothes, do you?" You wash first, the front yard is very busy, I'm going to be busy, and I'm going to bring the big guy to help you when I'm done. Let's go. ”
After hurriedly speaking, he closed the backyard and left on their own. Ke Rong and Liang Xueyin were left smiling wide-eyed.
"Aunt Ke, how can they have so many clothes. And who knows if they will come, it will cost us our lives? Liang Xueyin said with a wry smile.
"You don't need to wash it, I'll just come. What kind of hard work does the eldest lady do. It's good to watch from the sidelines, and if you're bored, you go out and go to the goose to play. If he runs out of things, let him take you to this side of the mountain to play, many children love to play in the mountains and water, but it's fun. ”
She smiled generously, rolled up her sleeves, and tucked her hair behind her ears. Preparations for the well water have begun. Pulling the handle and turning it vigorously, the bucket in the well slowly rose up. Liang Xueyin wanted to help her, but she couldn't do it. Ke Rong smiled and walked over and snatched the bucket from her hand, pouring it into the larger empty bucket next to her.
Liang Xueyin didn't want to watch from the sidelines, although she really hadn't done this kind of work, but how could she not do it. So I tried to drag the wooden bucket next to the empty bucket, but it was too difficult to pull a few steps, and I changed the method again, holding all the clothes in my arms, and only then did I pull a few clothes out, and the pile of "mountains" collapsed. Helplessly and helplessly, he looked at Ke Rong with a smile.
"You go and go and play with Yangui, Aunt Ke can be alone, don't underestimate Aunt Ke, you are distracting Aunt Ke here." Go for it. When he finishes selling the shortbread, you can come and help me again. Go for it. Ke Rong walked over and bent down to pick up the clothes that fell on the ground one by one, urging Liang Xueyin to go and play with Ke Yangui.
Liang Xueyin bit her lower lip tightly, and felt a little guilty when she saw that she was covered with fine sweat, so she obediently left sullenly.
