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

Chapter 100 Laozi Shu Dao Mountain

It took Qin Yao a full hour to clean up the four disgraced children.

The haze of the fight has dissipated, and the four children are laughing and laughing around the main room. Qin Yao feels her ears hurt from the noise.

In the courtyard, Liu Ji washed up and prepared to go back to his room.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he turned around, Qin Yao stopped him.

 “Bring it.”

 “What?” Liu Ji pretended to be confused.

 Chin Yao: “Money.”

I was getting water to wash my face. When I saw that the water tank was almost dry, I told him, "Remember to fill up the water tank later."

In the evening, Ms. Zhang went to Grandma Wang’s house and bought five chicks. She also killed an old hen that didn’t lay eggs to give the whole family a good meal.

 The lights in the room went out immediately, and no one responded at all.

　　The three of them were a little embarrassed to receive their wages. They didn't expect that they would add up to so much.

She was not afraid of not having anything to eat, but she was afraid that the two elders would favor someone. As long as the water was served level, there was nothing to say.

She could hear her clearly at the door of the ancestral hall, so he still wanted to be petty with her. He must be tired of living!

Liu Ji's eyes suddenly widened. He had obviously spoken very quietly when they were talking about money. How on earth did she hear him while standing outside the ancestral hall?

“Madam, do you have clairaudience?” Liu Ji smiled glibly, covering his chest tightly with his hands, trying to get away with it.

 “Oops! I almost forgot!”

The stone mill is heavy. Three people can only carry one piece in one trip. Two millstones have four pieces. Qin Yao and four people can carry two millstones to the destination in one trip.

 Liu Fei smiled and accepted it. He still had a childish attitude, so he coaxed Jinbao Jinhua, and they went to Liu Merchant's house to buy snacks.

If the third brother and sister hadn't been willing to take them, they usually went out to find part-time jobs, and they wouldn't have been able to earn so much after a busy month.

Seeing Qin Yao enter the room, he boldly muttered: "Qin Yao! You solve the problem violently, you made a mistake!"

Countless little stars suddenly lit up in front of Liu Ji's eyes, and he swayed a few steps in place. He wailed, "Oh my god," and leaned against the door while sliding to the ground. He couldn't recover for a long time.

Liu Ji's eyes were full of confusion, "What money? Madam, how can I have any money? Isn't it all in your hands?"

She paid the wages directly to the three people. The total working hours were eight days, and each person was paid thirty-five cents a day. Each person was paid 280 cents, and the total expenditure was 840 cents.

 Liu Ji bit his lip, feeling so aggrieved that he wanted to die.

Jinbao was so happy that he took a big sip and smiled silly at his mother: "Mom, it would be great if I could drink chicken soup every day!"

 Mr. Zhang and Mr. Liu never paid any attention to the money they earned from working as part-time workers outside. Except for the fact that Liu Fei had to hand it over before they got married, Liu Bai and Liu Zhong all gave their wives their wages.

 It hurts, it hurts so much!

Qin Yao strung thirty coins together and stuffed them into her pocket, and raised her chin at the four elder men. The children immediately lined up to go back to their rooms to sleep, and no one dared to look at their biological father.

A total of twenty copper coins were placed on the table. He spread his hands and looked at Qin Yao innocently and said, "It's really gone. The six coins are for buying Cuju for the children, and the fourteen coins are for plasters."

Qin Yao stood up immediately, and Liu Ji immediately raised his hands to cover his face. As a result, he was too concerned about his face and not his money. Qin Yao took out all the coins hidden in his breast pocket.

Liu Ji patted his head, walked in with a helpless smile, took out a handful of copper plates from his arms and put them on the table.

After agreeing with Wang Yu and others on the installation time for the water truck to be delivered, Qin Yao returned to Liujiacun with the three brothers Liu Bai.

When He saw it, although he felt a little envious, he also smiled. In the past, when she was pregnant, her mother-in-law would reserve some extra delicious food for herself.

It took seven and a half days from removing the stone to grinding it into a grinding mill. Now that the millstones have been completely hammered out, what Qin Yao has to do today is to send the polished millstones and stone mills to Xiahe Village in advance with the Liu Bai brothers. .

Most of the mill in Xiahe Village has been built, and the most important part of the raised floor has been completed, which is just above the pond. Four one-meter-high stone pillars are used around it, and several wooden stakes are also placed in the middle part where the water is stepped. , load-bearing is no problem at all.

Liu Ji shook his fist at the air, gritted his teeth, got up, dusted off his clothes, and went back to his room to sleep with an unhappy face.

Mrs. Qiu asked Liu Zhong to go to the kitchen and get two more small bowls, and divide half of the chicken soup out for the two children at home.

After washing her face, she picked up the broom and swept away the dust in the yard. After feeding the chickens, the aroma of meat cakes spread from the kitchen. Qin Yao took a deep breath and said, "It smells so good~"

Liu Ji brought out the packed lunch jar and two meatloaf breakfasts. Qin Yao finished the meatloaf in several bites, picked up tools and lunch, and started her busy day.

The same goes for Mrs. Qiu. She still has one child in her belly and is even more short of money in her hand. With these two coins and more in her hand, she feels confident.

 An extra bowl of thick chicken soup was reserved and given to Mrs. Qiu, asking her to drink more as it would be good for her health.

 “Da Lang, Er Lang, San Lang, Si Niang!” Liu Ji covered his dizzy head to persuade him to stay, leaving nothing behind.

That night, as long as I thought about the thirty cents I had lost, I couldn't sleep at all. I had to get up to make breakfast until dawn.

Qin Yao looked up at him, raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and said with a half-smile:

“There is also ten cents for mental damages.”

Qin Yao raised her hand and raised three fingers, "I count to three, one, two."

Not only was the money gone, but when he exclaimed and put down his hand to take it back, Qin Yao slapped him on the back of the head, and it was a big bang!

 “Rou, rourou, I’ve been craving meat all day long. How come I can’t eat you to death?” I muttered to myself while mincing the minced meat.

"This is the plaster fee that Liu Facai compensated for our children. I wanted to give it to my wife for safekeeping as soon as I came back. Unexpectedly, I was so busy when I entered the house. If you hadn't reminded me, my wife, I wouldn't have thought of it."

Liu Bai called Qin Yao's family to go to dinner. Qin Yao waved her hand and said she still wanted to find Liu Carpenter, turned around and left.

Watching Qin Yao go away, the three brothers couldn't help laughing while holding two silver coins and eighty copper coins in their hands.

After turning back, the four of them rolled the stone wrapped with hemp rope to Xiahe Village. After spending a whole morning, the transportation task was successfully completed.

There was the sound of people getting up from the main house, and the kitchen was so quiet for a moment that only the crackling sound of firewood burning in the stove hole was left. Qin Yao opened the door and walked toward the kitchen while tying her short hair into a high ponytail with a piece of cloth.

Qin Yao counted only eighteen copper coins, sneered, and tapped his knuckles on the table twice.

Qin Yao glanced at him and said, "Why are you shouting? If it weren't for your good performance today, I would throw you into the river to feed the fish right now! Get up, turn off the lights and go to sleep. If you scream again, I will cut out your tongue!"

He was so happy when he saw the money.

 Zhang received the wages handed over by Liu Fei, smiled and counted the eighty cents and asked him to keep it by himself, and occasionally buy small things.

Liu Ji then touched his arms again, with a surprised look on his face, "Huh? There are two more coins left."

He knocked his head angrily and said, "You have a good idea, and it will be good if you can drink."

 Jinbao said "oh", and he drank the half bowl of chicken soup slowly and slowly to let the taste of the chicken soup stay for a while.
