MTL - Crossing Over I Became a Married Peasant Woman-Chapter 169 4,000 words for early adopters

The latest website: The road in the village is fairly smooth, but it is not so easy to walk, and the stones are easy to fall. She hadn't come out since she was pregnant, so Zhou Cheng specially asked her to take her out today.

I found Aunt Zhang's house, the courtyard door was not closed, and she was just feeding chickens. She asked Zhou Cheng to go back first, and then asked Aunt Zhang to send her back.

The scorched land was cleaned up yesterday, the corn had not been peeled, and it was unknown when Qiu Baize would come. He has to go back and take He Dayi to the field and close Changgong's house. Pei Xiu was alone at home, and he was worried about leaving him at home. He told her to go back and be careful before turning around and leaving.

Pei Xiu knocked on the door of the courtyard, shouted inside and walked in. She was not the first to come back.

"Oh, Pei Xiu, I haven't seen you for a few months. Your belly is so big. Your husband is so kind to you, he is reluctant to let you out, and even bought eggs for you to eat." Aunt Zhang Seeing Pei Xiu, she was also very happy, and hurried over to help her sit down.

"You're about to give birth, right? Why did you run out with such a big belly?"

Pei Xiu smiled and pulled Aunt Zhang to sit down together, "I have something to trouble Aunt Zhang again."

Aunt Zhang also said bravely: "What trouble? You are not familiar with the place, and life is not easy. Feel free to say something, I see if I can help."

"I'm about to give birth. I don't have any elders in my family. The whole family is a man. It's not convenient for me to take care of me. I can't take care of them, so I want to ask someone to help."

"Yeah, both the elder and the younger in your family are male. It's really inconvenient to give birth, and no one can take care of the family." Aunt Zhang thought about her family's situation and felt that she had to ask someone for help.

"Yeah, so I want to ask Aunt Zhang to go back and help me for a few months. I will pay you monthly wages, 800 yuan a month before the birth, and a stipend after the birth. Do you think it's okay?"

Aunt Zhang looked at her in surprise. The rough helpers from the big families only had five or six hundred dollars a month.

"Is this salary too much? We don't need so much from our villagers. I'm idle at home anyway. If you don't dislike me, I'll take care of you for a few months."

Seeing that she agreed, Pei Xiu was relieved, otherwise, she would not be able to find someone who was not familiar with her life.

"Not much. You have to take care of our family. After I give birth, you have to help me take care of the child. It is not easy to take care of the child."

Aunt Zhang smiled and hurriedly responded. She didn't expect to earn so much money at her age, so she said that hearing magpies this morning must be a good thing, and the old man must have said that she heard it wrong.

"Then when do I go to work?"

"Can I do it tomorrow? I'm also heavy now, and I'm not quick to do things. I still want to pack a room and go out to give birth."

Being able to go to work so soon, Aunt Zhang responded with a wide-eyed smile: "Then I'll go there early in the morning, and then I'll get off work at dinner time?"

Pei Xiu nodded, "Yes, after dinner, the boys can leave work when they come back. It shouldn't delay you to make dinner. Just keep the dishes and chopsticks for me to wash."

"How about that? How can I make you work with your wages? You can leave it after eating. I'll clean it up after dinner. We're also close. There's no delay on both ends."

"It doesn't matter, it's mainly because I stay at home alone during the day. They don't worry about it. If something happens, it's really going to be a disaster. They need someone to accompany them, and they'll be fine when they come back."

Aunt Zhang shook her head, "That's not good, I'll take your wages, I must do my job well, we were not far away."

Pei Xiu didn't care about this either. "Then let's talk about this later. Let's go to work tomorrow. I'll buy some eggs to take home by the way. Is it convenient for Aunt Zhang to take me back?"

"Convenient, why is it inconvenient, I have nothing to do, the chickens are already fed, you sit for a while, and I'll pack eggs for you." This new Zhou Ye family is really her lucky star, and she deliberately has more this year. How many chickens do you have?

Pei Xiu looked at the basket full of eggs, and saw that there were a lot of chickens in the yard, "Aunt Zhang, do you sell these roosters? I originally planned to catch some chicks to raise at the beginning of the year, but I was inconvenienced. I don't have it anymore. This confinement child wants to eat better..."

Before Pei Xiu could finish speaking, Aunt Zhang was delighted, "Sell, I'm worried that the rooster is wasting food too much, and I want the old man to sell it in the city, so I just saved a trip. Ouch, you It's really my lucky star. Auntie likes you so much. Don't worry, I will definitely take care of you in your family, and the confinement will also take good care of you. "

"Then let's say it, trouble Aunt Zhang to raise her for another two months." After she finished speaking, she got up.

"Okay, we've agreed, I'll take you back now." Aunt Zhang couldn't help her smile, her mouth couldn't close.

Pei Xiu smiled and said nothing. It was convenient for others and for himself. She didn't expect to buy chickens before, and it was after seeing so many chickens in the yard that she remembered that confinement eats roosters to compare milk.

Country people are not so particular about confinement, having eggs to eat is already the best treatment. But she is rich now, why should she lose herself? Confinement is so important to a woman, she must sit well.

Walking and chatting with Aunt Zhang, Aunt Zhang told Pei Xiu about her confinement experience and precautions, and she also gave birth to three children, which was not the first time.

But Pei Xiu was giving birth for the first time. She listened quietly and nodded occasionally. Aunt Zhang was happy to see that she was listening seriously. I think she has a good temper, and I don't think she is long-winded.

After it was delivered to the house, Aunt Zhang still felt unfulfilled. She brought her eggs to the kitchen, tidy up everything in the kitchen, and cleaned up the yard before leaving reluctantly.

Pei Xiu laughed and shook her head, Madam Zhang was a good lady, but she was a little nagging at her age.

Aunt Zhang has done all the work that should be done, and she has nothing to do. She goes back to the house and lies down to sleep for a while. Recently, she has been waking up frequently, and the fetal movement is also strong, and she can't sleep well at night.

In a daze, she heard the sound of the door opening, and she woke up with a jolt of fright, and only when she saw a familiar figure did she feel relieved.

Zhou Cheng turned around and saw that she was sitting up, and said, "Did you wake up, the sound of the door opening is too loud."

"What time is it, why did you come back suddenly?"

Seeing her getting ready, Zhou Cheng stepped forward to put on her shoes and said, "It's almost noon, He Dayi has been taken away by Qiu Baize, I don't see anything, I'll come back to see you."

"I have nothing to do at home. After talking to Aunt Zhang, I asked her to take me back. She even cleaned up the yard before leaving."

"I brought back a few corns. You can cut off the burnt part and cook it later. If it's a little better, I asked Qiu Baize to bring it back to the prince and the prince to taste it."

Pei Xiu nodded, "I'll go to the kitchen to see if it's burnt out a lot?"

"Not many, most of them can't be eaten. I picked a few that can still be eaten, and everyone will share a share after cooking, but I can't take it out. Well, I am an exception."

The skin has been peeled off, but it is almost half black, and the black should be peeled off before cooking. She was idle anyway, so she let Zhou Cheng go to the field and left her alone.

It's just cooked enough to feed a few kids back from school. They have been greedy for a long time, always asking if they can eat the harvest. Those that don't belong to them now.

She was bored waiting and was nibbling on a corn when they came back.

"Mom, we're back."

These few days are the people who have not arrived, the sound will come first.

Zhou Yong ran in first, "Mother, what are you eating? Corn?" He quickly stretched out his claws and picked the one with the largest and most corn kernels.

Zhou Heng followed with his eyes shining and said, "Is there corn?"

When the others heard the corn, they rushed in, "Have the corn been harvested?"

A plate was placed there instantly and the CD was off.

Zhou Heng ate corn kernels all over his face, and he didn't forget to care about the fields, "Mother, have you harvested the corn?"

"Idiot, this is obviously burned by the fire. Mother cut off all the scorched ones. Only half of the corn is good, so I don't understand it." Zhou Yong disliked it while eating. Growing up, he didn't even see how smart he was.

Zhou Heng stared at his eldest brother, stomped on him fiercely, and while he was screaming, he threw away the corn he had eaten, grabbed his corn, and ran while gnawing...

Zhou Qiang was so scolded, "Don't run away, you little bastard, I won't kill you."

The two of you chased me and ran around in the yard. Zhou Heng was like a loach, but his elder brother couldn't catch it. He also defiantly threw the finished corn cobs at his eldest brother.

Zhou Qiang said in a panic, "Ah, I'm so **** off, don't run if you can."

"You have the ability to catch up with me." Zhou Heng also made a face.

The other people ignored their sparring, and Zhou Shan asked Pei Xiu with concern, "Auntie, did He Dayi send him away yesterday?"

"Master Qiu has already taken it away."

The second child also asked, "Mother, this corn is already cooked, can it be harvested right away?"

She nodded, "Almost, wait for two more days, and we will harvest it on the spot when the palace comes."

"Auntie, if this is harvested, can we still live here?"

Huzi's question is on point, and she doesn't know.

"Let's talk about it later, I still have to give birth to a confinement child here."

The courtyard ended with Zhou Yong's victory, stepping on his younger brother ten feet. When I ran in, I just heard this, "Mom, when will you give birth to a sister?"

"It should be the end of July and the beginning of August, not very sure."

He put his hand on Pei Xiu's stomach, "That's fast, ah, my sister kicked me."

Zhou Yong was very pleasantly surprised, and the others also eagerly wanted to try, and all of them reached out their hands.

Pei Xiu patted their hands off and pushed them away, "Go away a little bit, they're all around me, I'm running out of breath, go and write me big letters, don't be lazy here."

Drive them all away, and it feels like the whole world is quiet.

When Zhou Cheng came back, she handed him a hidden corn.

He was surprised that the few at home didn't have enough to eat, "Why are there any leftovers?"

Pei Xiu rolled his eyes, "I kept it on purpose, otherwise there will be nothing. It's going to be a fight for one person and one person to eat."

Zhou Cheng handed the corn back to her, "I ate it in the field, you two, eat it."

She shook her head, "I didn't eat it, I just ate one, I want to eat with my stomach, you eat it, otherwise the remaining one won't be enough, and we'll have to fight again later."

He laughed and did not refuse. In fact, I didn't eat it in the field, after all, I brought so many back.

"It's almost ready, and it tastes pretty good." The soldiers guarding today have also tasted it, and they all think it's delicious. On the way of the march, it is more troublesome to bury the pot to make rice. I don’t want to eat dry food, so it is quite easy to cook some corn.

They haven't eaten sweet potatoes yet, so this one is very hungry, and they can manage a meal by eating two. When the food is not enough, it can also be used as a staple food, and the taste is also good, and it tastes sweet. The most important thing is that the yield is high and the land is not selected.

As he ate, he thought that when the corn was harvested, he could dig up the potatoes and sweet potatoes that had been trampled on the surface to see how big they were.

They haven't dealt with the trampled ones yet, they just want to see if they can still live. It's best to live, but you can't wait for the corn to be harvested.

Pei Xiu was curious about the arson case the day before yesterday, and asked him, "Master Qiu said that among the three people he brought back, which one is the culprit?"

"It's Li Guiwen. The night before he was dispatched, his father, mother, daughter-in-law, daughter-in-law, and children were arrested. The man asked him to check what Zhuangzi deserves the attention of a big man, and let him see that the situation is ruined." Zhou Cheng sipped tightly. lips, said lightly.

"Then he has been exposed and arrested now, what should he do with his family?" Pei Xiu actually thought about whether the arsonist had a handle on others, so he would do such detrimental things.

"It has been silenced. Qiu Baize found the body in their house, so he concluded that it was Li Guiwen. After telling him, he collapsed and confessed everything. But he didn't know who ordered him. People are in the hands of people, and he can only follow orders."

Pei Xiu sighed, "This person is unlucky, but he was targeted. A good family is ruined like this. I don't know who the enemy is."

Zhou Cheng was silent.

"Have the other two been released?"

"It's released, UU reading www.uukanshu.com Qiu Baize sent them over to continue their work today."

"I think you have to prepare early. Maybe Mr. Qiu will bring the corn back to them to taste, and they will be impatient. It's not necessarily the case that they plan to harvest it early. After all, it's already cooked. It doesn't make any difference one day or another."

"Well, I know. Let's go to dinner first while it's still light."

After they ate the corn brought back by Qiu Baize, they were full of praise. It was glutinous, sweet, and tasted great.

The King of Liaodong was also extremely satisfied, looking forward to its harvest, and distributed it to his staff to taste. They discussed to continue to hide it from the outside world, and then present it as a gift when the saint celebrates his birthday next year, when the government and the public will be shocked.

He confessed to the prince: "There are too many prying eyes. The fire broke out in the last two nights. You should strengthen your precautions in the past two days. I will take a day out the day after tomorrow to check on the spot. Don't let me down."

"Don't worry, Father, I will definitely strengthen the guard."
