After Dressing Up As a Stepmother, I Transformed the Whole Family Into Working In the Fields Chapter 406

 On the first day of the Lunar New Year, all the villagers in Liujia Village pooled their money to build a large water mill, which was officially put into use after the ribbon-cutting ceremony.

The riverside at the foot of Qin Yao's house became deserted, and the mill that had always been busy in the past suddenly became quiet.

Erlang took the money box back and counted the coins in it. There were eleven coins in total.

“No one will come to our water mill from now on.”

Erlang patted the weather-beaten money box on the table with some regret and collected the last income from the water mill.

Liu Ji also lamented, no matter how small a mosquito's legs are, they are still meat. If you add up a little, you can still collect 1,780 Wen per month.

Dalang listened to the roar of the waterwheel coming from the entrance of the village, and the cheers of the villagers who were surprised by the big stone mill, and said with satisfaction:

Going to the river at this time, two grown men can avoid being ridiculed.

“Besides, if we want to use a grinder at home, we don't have to wait for others to use it up. We can use it whenever we want.”

"Huh?"

On the first day of work, the factory was very lively, everyone was still reminiscing about the joy of the New Year, and the atmosphere in the entire factory was very harmonious.

 “What a joke!” Liu Jixiao cursed in a low voice.

Liu Ji put down the book, got out of the door, took the bucket of clothes that belonged to Qin Yao from Awang, and pulled the collar up to cover his nose. The two of them walked in the dim light, and the dog came sneakingly. river bank.

Liu Ji: "Look at you, you are such a coward. We are an old man who has a lot of potential. What are we afraid of? He is not doing anything shady. They love to laugh. Let them laugh. They are all full!"

Qin Yao, who was sitting idle on the chair, stood up and asked, "Where are the people?"

Qin Yao frowned slightly. The Ding family only had one young master and one young lady. Where did the second young master come from?

Before she could ask, Shunzi murmured to himself: "Isn't member Ding in the capital? When did he come back?"

Shunzi stopped and replied breathlessly: "I just entered the village. There were more than a dozen people and a carriage. The person talking to me seemed to be the second young master of the Ding family, and the person in the car seemed to be Mr. Ding!" "

 Today is the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, the first day of operation for the factory.

Nga Wang said seriously: "They laughed at us."

Sister-in-law Zhou pointed towards the bridge suspiciously, "He Hua, isn't that your third son?"

While I was thinking about it, the sound of carriage wheels rolling and the clatter of trotting horse hooves came from the factory gate.

Just as he was suspicious, Shunzi hurried over and said, "Manager Qin, the Ding family is here! I want to ask if you are in the factory. If you are, let me know and they will go to your home to wait for you!"

Awang said oh and continued to dry the sheets.

Liu Ji has to wash her clothes, shoes and socks by herself. If Awang dares to help, he will be scolded by the big boss.

At this moment, the sky is not bright yet, there is a layer of gray fog on the sky, and the women and men in the village have not yet gotten up.

This is why, for the housework that Awang can complete by himself, he still has to call his elder master who is reluctant to do so.

After staying in the village for a long time, every time Awang went to the well to fetch water, the women in the village would always tease him.

The twenty-day annual vacation was over, and she felt it was over in the blink of an eye.

Qin Yao went out to the factory after breakfast to arrange the production work for the new year.

Ever since, the two laundry teams reached a tacit understanding and acted an hour earlier than the laundry team every time.

 Liu Ji is responsible for the light washing of clothes.

  Work started in the new year, and each company had to pay part of the material deposit first, and then there were also money-related matters such as the payment of workers' wages. Qin Yao's abacus was thrown into confusion.

　　It cannot be performed in the courtyard. You have to go to the river to perform it conveniently.

The sun was shining brightly at the door, shining slantly into the house. There was nothing to do. Qin Yao simply moved her chair to the door of the office and basked in the sun. When the meal was ready, the children came to tell her to go back to eat.

As the river water became warmer, Awang packed up a large bucket of dirty clothes and came to the door of the study to ask Liu Ji to go to the river to wash clothes together.

 “Sir, they're setting off!” Awang's voice sounded a little nervous.

Liu Ji looked at Awang who had washed the bedsheets and quilts early and was standing there with his arms folded in a daze, waiting for him. He felt hateful in his heart!

"Where?"

As soon as Liu Ji heard this, he quickly looked up. I saw a washing team of young and middle-aged women headed by He and Sister-in-law Zhou, carrying a bucket in one hand and a mallet in the other, walking towards the river talking and laughing.

 After saying that, the root of his neck turned red.

 Hand sheets and quilts after sleeping all winter should be washed and put away while the weather is warm and sunny.

Although Awang usually has no mood swings, when faced with the teasing and teasing of the women in Liujia Village, he still had to run away.

“But our family no longer needs the income from the water mill to maintain it. The village has its own mill, which is a good thing.”

Bystanders asked them what they were laughing at, and the two of them tacitly said it was nothing. However, the laughter became louder and louder and more penetrating. Liu Ji, who was drying the clothesline in the yard, turned dark when he heard it.

At first, Awang didn't pay attention to things like husband and wife. Now, after listening to the women's suggestions, he also understands that some housework is not convenient for him to do, so he has to leave it to his eldest father.

 Qian Wang had rushed back to Liujia Village yesterday. He rented an ancestral house belonging to Liu Dafu's family. He arrived to repair it yesterday. After working this morning, he came to Qin Yao with a stack of notes and account books.

 Awang is very strong and is responsible for rinsing heavy sheets and bedding.

 The less people use it, the slower the damage rate. It used to be repaired several times a month, but now two or three times a year is enough.

 The sun rises, smoke rises from the roofs of every house, and a new day begins.

Turning back and looking at each other with Sister-in-law Zhou, the two of them curled their lips and laughed.

 Hate yourself for being such a bitch!

This shows how much of a shadow the massacre of the army left on the hearts of young people.

 The most important point. Dalang looked at his father who was short of money and said, "Dad, you don't have to repair the water mill every now and then."

The evil woman tortured him thousands of times, but he still had the cold face to wash her underwear by the river!

After the accounts were settled, Qin Yao handed the required silver to Qian Wang, and then she was so lazy that she sat on the chair and breathed a sigh of relief.

Liu Ji suddenly became excited and quickly threw the coat and skirt in his hand into the water and rinsed it twice to remove the soap suds. He twisted it a few times to get rid of most of the water, threw it into the bucket, and lifted the heavy wood with both hands. Bucket, greeted Nga Wang: "Retreat!"

Today, the four Dalang brothers and sisters don't have many dirty clothes, mainly Qin Yao's.

 After the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, the weather became warmer day by day. There were seven or eight sunny days in a row, the ice and snow melted, and spring has arrived.

Qin Yao doesn't have any extraordinary ability to remember things, but the sound of horse hooves coming from the gate feels very familiar to her.

Liu Ji raised his eyebrows. Thinking about it this way, it seemed not bad.

He looked over suspiciously and saw a familiar figure flying into the house as if carrying something. She only had time to catch a wet hem of clothes.

 If she had nothing to do in the middle of the afternoon, she would pack up the bows and arrows that had been damaged by the wolf hunting group at home.

Qin Yao looked at the sun and saw that it was less than two-quarters of an hour before noon.

“Shunzi, tell Yun Niang and the others and I'll go back first.”

 After explaining, take the first step.
