After Dressing Up As a Stepmother, I Transformed the Whole Family Into Working In the Fields Chapter 66

Chapter 66 Plowing the Fields

Mrs. Liu quickly said yes and asked her younger daughter to go to her second brother's study to get pen and paper.

Liu Gong's second brother Liu Li had just gotten married in the first month of the year. He was the person Zhang mentioned at that time who was sent to the county town by his parents to study for half a month but dropped out of school because he couldn't bear the transportation fee.

 But what happened next, Zhang did not say, was that Liu Li later went directly to live with his aunt's family in the county seat and studied in the county academy.

Originally, I was going to take the county exam this spring. If I passed it, I would be eligible to take the government exam. If I passed the government exam, I would be a scholar.

However, a bandit disaster delayed him for the entire year.

 Fortunately, the engaged woman did not break off the engagement because of his leg, and the two families still completed the wedding as scheduled.

Liu Li watched Qin Yao pick up paper and pen to draw, and felt that she was very unusual. Although she held the pen in a weird posture, her lines were straight and horizontal, and she was straight without a ruler. At first glance, she was someone who had been drawing all year round.

 One is a picture of a wooden wheelchair. The method is actually very simple. The large wooden wheels are too luxurious and difficult to make. They are only for short-term use, so just add four small wooden wheels to the chair.

 Now Liu Li guesses that her family must have been a wealthy family before.

There are two plows at the Liu family's old house, one made of iron and one made of stone. Fortunately, they are oxen rented from the village chief's family. Otherwise, after one hundred acres of land have been plowed, the people will be ruined.

　　　Both of the couple are people who don't care about other people's opinions, and Liu Ji is the kind of person who can smile at you even if you scold him in front of him.

The reason why a field near water is good is that it is convenient to store water. You don't have to guard the ditch to release water. You also have to keep an eye on it day and night to prevent others from blocking the water into your own field.

But Mrs. Qin said that Carpenter Liu knew about it, so she should show it to Carpenter Liu.

 Two days later, Qin Yao and Liu Ji miraculously adapted to such work. Although they went out early and came back late every day, their bodies were no longer as tired as before.

 Liu Ji would never be angry about this, but said with a smile: "It is only natural that your son should take care of me."

Knowing that he wanted to turn his anger into productivity, Liu Ji waved his hand and said with a smile: "Work hard and plow deeper! Brother Qiu Shuang is here to beg for food!"

Liu Fei had never seen such a shameless person, so he angrily picked up the plow and went to the ground.

Dalang and Erlang took the initiative to take on the housework and cooking work, and even delivered lunch to their parents in the fields at noon to ensure that no farming time was wasted.

People in the village often fight over the fields and water. Regardless of whether you are a relative or not, if you dare to block my family's water fields, I will fight you to the death!

Therefore, the land rented by Qin Yao's family is full of water. When plowing the land while releasing water, there is a mud pit for each foot. People are stuck in the mud and it is very tiring to lift their feet.

Because there is so much land and it is relatively scattered, it is very difficult to plow every acre of land once. Those who plow finely can only plow the land twice if they rely on good water.

 Unexpectedly, Old Man Liu didn't say a word and went into the house to get it for him.

Liu Fei was the only one in the courtyard who looked away from Liu Ji and said, "It's so shameless. The family has been separated for a long time and yet you still come to ask for things from your parents."

 Of course, tiredness is also an important factor in fatigue.

 Carpenter Liu nodded in approval, "Of course, Madam Qin has been to Fucheng."

 The drawings were drawn. One was a drawing of a pair of crutches. Liu Li and his third brother only had one broken leg, so it was more appropriate to use this one.

To be precise, Yaoniang went to Fucheng.

Qin Yao himself was also a little surprised. He actually saw the use of Arabic numerals in his original memory.

 The others had no oxen or iron plows, but they were faster than them. The performance of the couple in the fields made the villagers laugh a lot.

It took three and a half days to plow all the land.

After handing the picture to Mrs. Liu, Qin Yao turned around and left.

 Mrs. Liu nodded, I see.

 Look, now I can do housework and go to the field. The change is so great that it is unbelievable.

  There were some strange symbols marked on the drawings that they did not understand.

“Dad, please bring me rice seeds from ten acres of land.” Liu Ji leaned on the door frame of the main hall of the old house and confidently stretched out his hand to ask for rice seeds from Old Man Liu.

 In fact, in my previous life, I worked many odd jobs in the base to make a living, and was trained in a medical device factory.

Qin Yao nodded. Anyway, the land here is very good. In the afternoon, he went to Liu Dafu's house to settle the land rental matter with Liu Gong.

Furthermore, women here in Shengguo don't menstruate, but have dark menstruation. There is no trouble about menstruation, and it does not affect fertility. It is the gospel of women's time travel!

 For now, Qin Yao is generally satisfied with the world, except for farming.

Qin Yao and Liu Ji specially went to the Liu family's old house to observe how to plow the fields with an ox-drawn plow for a day. Under Qin Yao's intimidation, Liu Ji rolled up his pants and went to the fields to practice a few times. After gaining a certain amount of experience points, the two of them took the second place. The sky will come down and the earth will start to work.

There are also those who are alone, holding the plow alone and plowing slowly. This plow is also made of different materials and has different speeds.

But human beings are extremely adaptable creatures.

Mrs. Liu didn't even have a chance to express her gratitude. She was also surprised by Qin Yao's generosity. She gave such exquisite drawings as a gift without any intention of hiding anything.

The middle bench is removable for easy access to the toilet. The wheelchair also has armrests for Liu Gong and his wife to push. It can be said that it is very considerate.

Everyone in the village knows that Qin Yao fled from another place, and no one knows what her family background was before she fled.

However, you don't know how difficult it is until you get started.

I don't know if it really came from outside, or if other travelers have come here before.

　　These days, Old Man Liu and Mrs. Zhang have seen the hard work of the couple, and they are secretly moved. The fortune teller is honest with me. It takes a fierce woman to control someone like Lao San.

"Oh, this, this is Abel's numeral. People in the Western Regions use this number as our one-twenty-three. Fucheng and Kyoto have all adopted this number." Liu Carpenter explained.

Qin Yao naturally knew that the look in Liu Li's eyes was full of inquiry, but there was no proof. It was all about her talking nonsense, and no one would expose her.

 Now I have gone from tired to numb, so my mental state is much better.

They both thought well. One of them is a strong man and the other has a cow. It should be easy for each of them to make two acres a day.

“Madam, let's just take these ten acres, which are connected together and close to the river, so it's easy to water.”

Other families have already started plowing the fields. There are no livestock, so they work in teams of two, with one person pulling in front and the other supporting behind, which makes it faster.

Otherwise, if a woman can write and draw, it can be said that she is valued and loved by her family, but if she wants to learn martial arts, it is not something ordinary people can have.

Liu Ji stood on the ridge of the field, pointing to the ten acres of land in front of him, and said with a complicated mood.

But the shamelessness is still the same as before.

 In good conditions, iron plows are used; in poor conditions, stone plows and wooden plows are used.

 “Ms. Qin knows a lot.” Liu Yueniang, the younger sister of the Liu family, said in admiration.

 This time, she said that there was an uncle in her family who liked carpentry, and she had learned some skills from him.

 Because he had expected that there would be no rice seeds left in Qin Yao's house, he had already prepared them.

 So she is very calm and answers all questions, whether you believe it or not.

The two of them had one acre each. Liu Ji used an iron plow borrowed from Liu Dafu's family to hitch an ox plow, while Qin Yao used an iron plow borrowed from Liu Dafu's family, relying solely on manual labor.

Qin Yao gave him money to buy it, but if he really gave him money, he wouldn't be called Liu Laosan.

They all said not to bully people too harshly, but Liu Fei turned around sharply and said, "Liu Ji, just wait for me. I'll tell the third sister-in-law to go!"

 Don't think he doesn't know he has a private room secretly hidden!

 Tell Qin Yao that evil woman?

Liu Ji's expression changed drastically, and he quickly caught up with him, "Little brother, wait a minute! Listen to my brother's explanation."
