After Dressing Up As a Stepmother, I Transformed the Whole Family Into Working In the Fields Chapter 145

 Zhang, He and Qiu stepped forward to welcome him.

"Why are you home so late? Are you hungry?" Ms. Zhang took the things from Qin Yao's hand and put them on the ground next to the door of her house. She would take them home later.

 Qin Yao nodded honestly, very hungry.

He immediately walked towards the kitchen, took off the apron hanging behind the door, lit a lamp and started a fire, and said outside:

"I'll make some pimple soup for you two, and add two more eggs. Quickly put down your things and wash your face, you two are so gray-faced."

Mrs. Zhang led the couple to the water tank. Mrs. Qiu found a clean face towel and handed it to Qin Yao, "Quickly wipe it."

"Thank you, second sister-in-law." Qin Yao smiled politely at Mrs. Qiu and asked her to go back and sit down and not worry about herself.

Mrs. Zhang filled the basin with water. Qin Yao took the cold water and twisted the handkerchief. She wiped her face first, then handed the handkerchief to Da Lang and told him to wash his head too, so as not to waste the basin. water.

But it is good to buy land. How can a farmer not have land? Renting land from others is not a long-term solution. It is better to have your own land.

 “Hmm!” Siniang said happily: “Thank you, Ernie~”

"Your second sister-in-law has some free time these days, let her make it for you." He made arrangements naturally. Qiu nodded and asked Fourth Niang what kind of style she wanted.

 While everyone was chatting and laughing, Qin Yao and Dalang filled their stomachs without even a drop of soup left.

 Back at his home, Qin Yao was obviously more relaxed. He took off his weapons and put the meat in the kitchen. Now that the temperature is low day and night, the meat will not go bad if left overnight.

Qin Yao got up and went to the door, took out the pork belly and cloth she bought, and put the cloth on the table in the main room. She took the meat to the kitchen, cut off two kilograms and put it directly in the cupboard. She found the cover and covered it with the familiar way.

Jinhua and Siniang looked at each other. The cousins ​​smiled and rolled their eyes. They can wear the same shoes.

"I'm coming!"

He checked the doors and windows again and asked the children's room to turn off the lights. Then he returned to his room and lay on the bed with his hair loose and relaxed, reading the letter.

Jinbao asked him: "What did you hit? Are there any tigers or bears?"

Mrs. Zhang hurriedly said no, but Erlang and the other boys had already opened the oil paper bags, so they could only sigh helplessly, "These greedy cats can't walk after seeing delicious food."

 Qin Yao was sitting at the table, opposite the four old men Liu and his son, and beside him was the Qiu family. When Qin Yao talked about meeting a tiger in the mountains, everyone was extremely excited.

Qin Yao took the letter, glanced at the words "My beloved wife" on the envelope, sneered, and put the envelope aside, "Don't worry, I'll look at it when I get back. He just came back from the city today. He's very good."

The content of the letter was simple, asking her why she did not give the coachman living expenses for herself.

“Okay, don't worry, I'll tell you if there's any news.” Old man Liu responded solemnly.

Dalang wanted to answer, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he realized that he couldn't finish the answer, so he simply shut up and washed his hair first.

 The date of the earliest letter was the day after she last left the county.

Qiu smiled and nodded, "Okay, how about we embroider two morning glories?"

 I'll take a bath with hot water when I get home later so I can sleep better.

"Hey, thank you. Just wait. Second Auntie will definitely do a nice job for you." Mrs. Qiu touched the little guy's face and felt that Fourth Niang was getting cuter and more polite now. Look at it. It will bring joy.

Qin Yao opened all the letters and sorted them by time, starting with the earliest one.

Qiu was defeated and had no choice but to agree.

Watching Qin Yao and his family leave, Mr. Zhang and Old Man Liu looked at each other and smiled easily. With Qin Yao here, they no longer have to worry about the third family.

By the time the bath was finished, it was already late at night, but the children were not sleepy. They lay on the bed and listened to Dalang's talk about what happened in the mountains with great interest.

Jinhua hurriedly burrowed into Mrs. Qiu's arms, twisting like a bent pepper in Qin Yao's vegetable garden.

“Make it for me, mother, do it for me. I promise you will take good care of it this time and never break it.”

Mrs. Qiu glanced at her helplessly, "Didn't I do it for you? I burned a big hole in the upper of the shoe before wearing it for two days, and you didn't take care of it. I'm not happy to do it for you."

"It's getting colder, so everyone needs a pair of thick-soled shoes." Qin Yao put the remaining three kilograms of meat back into her bag and turned around to tell her.

During the days she left, there was no adult at home to help carry water, and the two of them had not taken a shower.

This time he went into the mountains for eight days. In just eight days, Liu Ji wrote four letters and came back.

Jinhua quit and pouted, "Mom, I also want Morning Glory's shoes, the same as Si Niang's!"

He smiled and brought the noodle bowl in, and put two more bowls, one for Qin Yao and one for Dalang. In the bowls were two fried, browned, crispy eggs.

"No wonder she misses her third aunt every day." Mrs. He also joked: "My Jinbao has to ask twice a day. Hasn't third aunt returned yet? When will third aunt return?"

Qin Yao lit up the fire, heated several large pots of hot water, and the whole family took a bath.

Si Niang and Jin Hua squatted by the water basin, looking eagerly, "My mother bought some cakes, and I can smell them."

Qin Yao went to look at the horse and added a handful of night grass to it.

 Zhang walked into the room silently, and after a while took out four letters and handed them to Qin Yao.

 I bought two kilograms, but it's hard to divide them. It would be more enjoyable for the whole family to eat them together.

 Forget about the old house, washing it once every half month is considered diligent. Naturally, Mr. He would not have thought of this.

 “Is there any style?” Fourth Niang looked at Er Bo Niang in surprise. Mrs. Qiu told her that there were some with raised heads, flat heads, and some with patterns. She knew how to embroider and could embroider some flowers for her.

"The third one sent it from the city. You were not here, so you kept it and haven't opened it yet. A letter arrived the next day. Don't rush to find you if something happened. Please take a look."

The sizes of He's clothes were all measured. Qin Yao called Siniang over and prepared to go home.

He and others were already familiar with Qin Yao's behavior. Without saying any polite words, they went into the house to get a ruler and called the four Dalang brothers and sisters to measure the size.

Erlang and Sanlang also asked expectantly: "Mom, have you gone to the city?"

Si Niang had never worn shoes like this before, and she was looking forward to them, "Then I want to embroider them."

 Old man Liu was shocked. It seemed that he had gained a lot of money from this trip to the mountain.

Dalang had already washed his hair. Erlang and Sanlang insisted on wiping his hair. The three brothers made a fuss for a while before entering the room.

After Dalang finished responding, he was immediately surrounded by his younger brothers and sisters.

Hearing what Qin Yao said, Old Man Liu and Mrs. Zhang were no longer anxious and asked Mr. He if the meal was ready.

 Before leaving, ask Old Man Liu to help him check whether there is any land for sale in the village.

Qin Yao pointed to the bag of pastries by the door and asked Erlang to bring it over and eat it together.

 In the main room, Ms. Zhang specially lit an oil lamp to make the room brighter.

 The second letter, one day apart, asked her if something happened at home so she had no money to send it, and finally asked her if she was okay.

 The third letter, another day apart, said that he seemed to have seen her in the county town before and asked her if she had been to the county town recently.

The fourth letter, in a very sensible and pitiful tone, said that he had borrowed living expenses from a classmate, so that if she had difficulties, she should stay close to home and not worry about him.
