MTL - After Dressing Up As a Stepmother, I Transformed the Whole Family Into Working In the Fields-Chapter 390 Fishing in troubled waters

 “Three uncles and three aunts are back!”

Jin Bao on the persimmon tree shouted in surprise.

 Jinhua and Siniang, who were playing in the straw pile, immediately stuck their heads out and looked down the mountain.

The two sisters wore two small braids hanging on their shoulders, which were covered with straw flowers.

As the braids swayed, the straw flowers fluttered down. Si Niang was very sorry, but she couldn't care less. She was going to pick up A Niang.

"Sister Jinhua, let's run!" Siniang jumped down from the straw pile, which was more than one meter high. Da Lang, who had just come down from the tree, looked up and saw Jin Hua, who was busy drinking and preparing to jump down. Hua, "Don't jump, or you may break your leg!"

 Siniang occasionally trained with him and Uncle Awang and learned some skills. She was fine. She ran very fast as soon as she landed, but Jinhua couldn't.

Dalang ran up and took the golden flower down from the haystack.

Jinhua smiled at him, grabbed a few straw flowers that fell on the ground, and chased after Siniang: "Siniang, wait for me~"

Dalang shook his head helplessly, turned around, and called the boys home to start dinner.

It was already very dark, so I only dared to climb the old persimmon tree in the back mountain because my parents were not at home.

The first batch of persimmons had long been eaten up by the children in the village. Now a few small ones appeared, and today they were all put in the pockets of the brothers.

  Counting them all together, there are exactly seven, seven cousins ​​and one sister each, including Da Mao.

 “Ah!” Da Mao, who was lying on the threshold of the hall, saw several brothers and sisters running over and clapped his hands excitedly.

He could already walk, but his staggering was so frightening that Qiu placed him in the main room, with a high threshold blocking the way, so the little guy couldn't step out.

But at this moment, he was so anxious that he climbed up to the threshold with his little hands and feet, and unexpectedly flipped out and lay on the ground outside the threshold with a thud.

Qiu just arrived in front of the door carrying the dishes, and immediately stopped and held his breath.

The expected cry did not come out. The little guy's big eyes rolled and his mouth was already deflated. However, seeing that no one of the adults around him meant to comfort him, he seemed to realize that this was not a big deal and started giggling again. .

Mrs. Zhang was afraid that he would be cold, so she put on a thick little coat, which was like a ball. She got up from the ground by herself, opened her hands to maintain balance, and prepared to go down the steps.

Qiu's held breath suddenly relaxed, and she smiled at the little guy. He also raised his head and smiled at her, his face flushed red by the charcoal fire in the room, which was particularly pleasant.

 “Da Mao!” Qin Yao strode over, clapped her palms to attract the little guy’s attention, and opened her hands, “Come here, give me a hug~”

“Ah~” Da Mao waved his arms excitedly and immediately staggered towards Qin Yao.

Just before he fell down the stone steps, Qin Yao lifted the little guy up.

Da Mao was startled at first and opened his mouth in an O shape. After he realized what he was doing, he kicked his legs hard to express his happiness.

“It’s so heavy, it seems like our Da Mao has become a little chubby from eating it.” Qin Yao pinched the child’s buttocks and laughed.

Liu Ji didn't even look at it. He tsked twice, but he couldn't control himself from squeezing his nephew's red face.

Da Mao didn’t like Uncle San, and waved his little hands to express resistance. If he continued to do it, the little guy would pretend to cry.

These people in the family are all the little guy's supporters, Liu Ji didn't dare to really make him cry, so he took back his hand angrily.

Qin Yao went to the kitchen and raised her chin, "All the guests are helping, but you, the master, won't go?"

Liu Ji thought she would not remember this, so he sighed, rolled up his sleeves and went into the kitchen to help.

But if he really worked honestly, he wouldn't be Liu Laosan.

 Liu Ji has mastered the skill of fishing in troubled waters.

Ask a question here, show concern there, as if you are very busy, but in fact you just open your mouth.

Qin Yao walked into the main room with Da Mao in her arms, followed by a group of children.

Jinhua and Siniang got the persimmons from their brother. After peeling them, they rushed to feed her. Qin Yao lived up to the reputation of Master Duan Shui and took a bite of each.

 The size and depth are exactly the same. Both cousins ​​think their persimmon is the favorite one.

 The dinner table has been set.

 Old man Liu and Mrs. Zhang were already sitting inside warming themselves by the fire. Young people like Liu Bai, Liu Zhong and Liu Fei were busy working. The two old men only had to watch the children and grandchildren in the house and enjoy their happiness.

However, Old Man Liu was restless. He saw a few burrs on the raincoat hanging on the wall, so he took it off and repaired it in a few clicks. At this time, he stared at the legs of Qin Yao's table and felt that it was not quite right. , looking for things all over the house to put a cushion on.

This is the bad thing about muddy ground. If heavy objects are left in one place for a long time, the ground will sink a little under the continuous force.

“After the spring plowing next year, if you have some free time, let’s re-pave your land.” Old man Liu helped with the plan.

 This means to get started personally.

 Old man Liu is now a little uncomfortable with the days when his family is busy with farm work and has to work part-time. It seems that he suddenly has no work to do.

 In the past, I worked in the fields all year round, leaving early and coming back late, never stopping, and my life was very hard.

He always wants to live a good life and take a break.

But it was good now. When the farming was busy, he had only been in the fields for a short time when Liu Bai and his friends pulled him out of the fields and asked him to give other day laborers a chance to make money.

He also told him to take care of himself and try not to go to the fields in the future.

The average life expectancy of people in the Sheng Kingdom is already short. At Old Man Liu's age, if he doesn't take care of himself, he may die if he gets sick.

However, Old Man Liu obviously could not understand the "filial piety" of his children. He just felt that he could not cultivate the land, and he felt uncomfortable because he could not show off his only proficient farming skills in his life.

 Zhang is more open-minded than the old man. The only thing she is worried about now is Liu Fei's marriage.

Anyway, the daughters-in-law of his old Liu family are very powerful, so she is happy to let them take care of it themselves.

As for herself, she took care of the vegetable plot at home, raised some silkworms for weaving, and took a look at her grandson.

  Enjoy the blessing first, and it’s not too late to work hard when times are tough.

Qin Yao saw the different attitudes of the two elders and knew that Old Liu wanted to realize his self-worth, so he did not reject his suggestion.

“Okay, then I’ll ask you to worry about it then.”

She has to manage the stationery factory, Liu Ji wants to study, and Awang is probably exhausted from taking care of his four children and household chores. Even if Old Man Liu doesn't say anything, Qin Yao will most likely trouble them by then.

 Because the family really can’t spare anyone.

“The dishes are all here, let’s sit down and get ready for dinner!”

 He shouted with a loud voice, and everyone in the room immediately returned to their seats.

 The children occupied the small table, and the adults crowded together on the big table.

Awang and Qiu prepared a table full of delicious dishes. The various pickled and smoked meats that Qin Yao bought from Fucheng were all made into dishes and served on the table, and the aroma was fragrant.

Paired with a few farm-style stir-fry dishes, the portion is enough to fill the rim of the bowl. It is solid and absolutely filling.

Only the Qin Yao family was willing to put in oil and salt seasonings like this. Jinhua and Jinbao couldn't eat such delicious and delicious dishes at home. When they saw the adults moving their chopsticks, they immediately picked up the dishes in front of them and put them into their mouths.

The fried green wild vegetables are tender and delicious, and are much more fragrant than the boiled vegetable leaves they eat at home.

While Jinbao was eating wild vegetables, he thought aggrievedly in his heart. His mother said that he was picky and didn't like to eat vegetable leaves. He didn't want to think about how unpalatable the vegetable leaves at home were because they were so dry that he wouldn't even put a drop of oil or half a spoonful of salt in them. .

The boy snorted secretly, turned his grief and anger into appetite, and gulped down the rice. Third aunt's vegetables and leaves were the most fragrant!
