Chapter 72 Roll up
Qin Yao raised her eyes and looked at the four Dalang brothers and sisters, asking them with concern what they had done at home today and whether they had completed their morning exercises and homework.
The key point is whether Liu Ji was lazy or did bad things when she was not at home.
Liu Ji didn't expect that she still had the strength to ask these things. The fingers on Qin Yao's shoulders trembled slightly.
He quickly winked at his son and daughter.
Dalang didn't even look at him, and said truthfully: "Auntie, dad was out looking at the field water all day today. He didn't **** the grass in the vegetable field, and he didn't repair the water damage. Today's three meals were cooked by Erlang and I. ”
After all, it is a wooden waterwheel. Sometimes some aquatic plants and debris are carried into the river water, and it needs to be cleaned up in two or three days.
Qin Yao touched the rope groove that was obviously newly dug with her fingers and raised her eyebrows in surprise.
Until noon, Qin Yao pushed logs down the mountain one by one. Five or six logs passed by at a glance, and Ding Wu stood up.
Ding Wu nodded wildly, "Okay, if you keep going at this speed in the afternoon, I'll give you enough meat buns tomorrow morning!"
It was getting late, and she would have to get up early tomorrow. Qin Yao took the test on today's homework for the four siblings, and then went back to the room to sleep.
Now the water mill can be regarded as a stable income, and the capital can be paid back in five months. After the capital is paid back, everything is profitable.
Today, Shunzi still uses a saw, and Qin Yao still holds an axe. The tools are familiar and easier to use.
Qin Yao pushed down the eighth piece of wood, walked down with the ax on her shoulder, nodded, and started to pick up the hatchet in the tool barrel and prune the eight pieces of wood.
Woke up at around four o'clock, it was dark outside the window.
If it is stuck, it must be repaired so that it will not be used when someone needs to use it.
Ding Wu heard it several times in a row. At first he thought it was workers gathering together to cut down trees one after another and sitting in the shade, without paying much attention.
Qin Yao's murderous gaze calmed down, and she took the repair tools with him and ran out as if running away.
“It's done.” Qin Yao smiled, put down her tools, clapped her hands, and waited for the meal to be served.
“How long has it been stopped?” Qin Yao asked with a frown.
So whenever there was a problem with the water tanker, Qin Yao always went to solve it immediately. Seeing that the villagers could not waste much time, they came over again and again.
Even Shunzi sawed two logs. Including the one in the morning, there were three logs chopped today.
Seeing the bearded man swallowing the buns in two big mouths, Shunzi swallowed enviously, went to the tool room to get the tools, and went up the mountain with Qin Yao.
Work started in the afternoon. Everyone was stimulated by Qin Yao and worked hard. The bearded man chopped off four strands in one afternoon!
Turning around, Qin Yao saw a pile of eight more logs in front of her. Including the ones from the morning, she had chopped sixteen logs in one day.
He was very satisfied with his result, after all, he just chopped one off yesterday.
Qin Yao let out a low sneer, slung the bamboo tube filled with water over her shoulder, walked out of the door quietly, lit a torch and went to work.
With Qin Yao's support, the four siblings are confident. Now let's see if Dad dares to hurt them.
I don't know when the massaging hand on the shoulder was removed, and he and the others retreated to the door of the main room.
Breakfast was a bowl of millet porridge per person. When receiving breakfast, Qin Yao deliberately asked for an extra bowl. The cook who served the rice gave her a rollicking look and refused to give it to her.
Qin Yao looked at Shunzi and the others and sighed softly. She had no choice but to roll up today in order to fill her stomach.
Dalang said it stopped at noon and has been until now.
“Your father is like that toad on the roadside. He will move only if you poke him. If you want him to get better, you must always push him. In the future, if you see him not moving, you must remind him.”
Qin Yao dressed neatly and walked out of the room to the main room. A bamboo tube filled with cold boiled water was already placed on the table. A groove was dug out at the top with a knife, and a rope was specially tied around it for easy carrying.
As a worker, you will never give your boss an extra second of beating. Others are still a few minutes late, because there is no clock accurate to minutes and seconds. People in Sheng country have no such thing as being stuck, as long as it is within a certain time period, it is considered on time.
Leaved out at 4:30, traveled for two and a half hours, and arrived at Ding's wife's house on time at 7:00.
In the open space full of branches, everyone watched Qin Yao eat enough for five people by herself, and their jaws almost dropped in shock.
“You chopped eight pieces of wood in one morning?” He confirmed again in disbelief.
Shunzi nodded, yes, he only knew today that Third Brother and his wife are so good at eating!
Qin Yao nodded and after finishing the last branch, the servant of the Ding family came with food. Qin Yao said, "I want to have a full meal at noon today, okay?"
“Flattery!”
The movement was very fast, crackling as if he were scraping fish scales. Ding Wu stared at it with wide eyes for half a minute before he came back to his senses.
Now there are only three months left to recoup the capital, and the existing customer base must be well maintained.
The four brothers and sister looked at each other happily and said hello in unison!
If yesterday she only learned skills, then today Qin Yao has mastered the logging skills. If she wants to roll up, even she will be afraid.
The bearded man nudged Shunzi with his elbow, "Isn't she your sister-in-law? Why are you surprised that you are following us? Only today did you know that she is so good at eating?"
"I'm busy working in the town to earn money these days. Don't help him with the things he should do at home. If he doesn't listen, tell me later and I'll take care of him."
Because the number of logging was the first yesterday, Big Beard got an extra bun in the morning, which was given to the servants by the young masters and ladies of the Ding family before they finished eating.
At this time, Shunzi, Dabeard and others still knew nothing about it.
"Liu Ji, where are you going?!" Qin Yao locked his sharp eyes and asked.
Without Liu Ji being an eyesore in the room, Qin Yao's expression softened and she told the four brothers and sisters of Dalang:
Although it is leftover, it still contains meat, and these buns have not been touched yet.
When they arrived at the place, the two separated. Qin Yao walked around in the forest, picked the straightest one, and started working!
The sound of "bang bang" felling came one after another in the forest, and every two-quarters of an hour, a "crash" sound could be heard from high up.
But today Liu Ji dared to stop the water mill. Is he tired of living?
The servants originally wanted to eat together in the mountains. In order for Qin Yao to be full, they gave her all the food and would eat later when they returned home.
He, Liu Laosan, actually has such a delicate mind?
Of course, it is more likely that he did something bad because he was afraid that she would settle a score with him and please her.
Liu Ji swallowed hard and said with a flattering smile, "Madam, I'm going to repair the waterwheel."
“Qin Yao, did you chop it alone?” he asked in surprise.
Liu Ji returned home at around 11 o'clock in the middle of the night. The grinding sound of the water wheel was heard from the river bank at the foot of the mountain. It seemed that the water wheel had been repaired by him, so Qin Yao felt relieved and fell asleep.
“Is this still a human being?” The bearded man growled unwillingly.
Ding Wu's eyes changed when he looked at Qin Yao, and now he politely called Mrs. Qin.
