After dressing up as a stepmother, I transformed the whole family into working in the fields

It was still early, and the old house was already full of people.

In a rare moment of generosity, Mrs. Zhang took out the candle and lit a lantern to illuminate the big guys working in the yard.

As soon as Qin Yao and his wife arrived and put down their things, they were arrested.

Sister-in-law Zhou and the others asked Qin Yao to go over with a kitchen knife to cut vegetables. Liu Ji was also taken away by Old Man Liu, who took out a gift book cut from red paper and asked him and Liu Fei to record the gifts.

Liu Ji was in charge of taking notes, and Liu Fei was in charge of collecting gifts. The two looked at each other disgustedly, so they happened to supervise each other.

Qin Yao looked at it and said: Absolutely!

"Let me cut the meat." Qin Yao picked up her kitchen knife, turned it around in her palm, pulled a piece of pork to the chopping board, raised the knife and chopped it with "clang"!

"Cut it into pieces or slice it?" Qin Yao asked while cutting, working very neatly.

Sister-in-law Zhou was stunned for a moment, then said in a trembling voice: "I want minced meat, and I'll make meatballs later."

There was not enough meat slices to feed so many people, so I made meatballs with minced meat and vegetables and stewed them into soup, one for each table.

It's rare for everyone to get some fishy meat all year round, so having this pot of broth will make you very satisfied.

Qin Yao nodded. It seemed that the meatballs were still the main dish.

One knife was too slow, so he picked up another kitchen knife, waving his hands up and down, and the entire food preparation area was filled with the sound of chopping meat.

And because the sound was so dense, it made other people’s teeth ache.

In two quarters of an hour, Qin Yao chopped all the minced meat that others would have taken an hour or two to chop, and the minced meat was very fine and smooth. It looked like good minced meat at first glance.

Sister-in-law Zhou and others gathered around and gave Qin Yao a thumbs up.

Qin Yao's self-confidence was extremely high. She waved the kitchen knife and said, "Leave the chopping work to me. You are responsible for washing it. After washing, hand it to me and I will cut it!"

Everyone was happy and all agreed.

Liu Ji in the main room was guarding the etiquette book, but no one came at the moment. He was still idle, sitting there eating peanuts. When he saw the bustle at the door of the kitchen, he clicked his tongue twice and thought to himself: So this is also a conspicuous bag.

It's daybreak. Today is indeed a good day. The rare sun rises.

The hi tea has been brewed, and the villagers have finished their work at home and gradually gathered around. The elderly and children came one after another.

Every time Liu Fei received a salute, he sang and shouted until almost noon, when everyone who was supposed to come arrived, so he could rest his voice.

Liu Ji's life was much easier, he just wrote.

The village chief and clan chief were all sitting around the gift table in front of Liu Ji, looking at him with wonder as he wrote down the gifts stroke by stroke, as if looking at a child who had just learned to write, with eyes full of love.

It was rare to see him look so serious and serious. From time to time, the village chief and clan chief would give him loving encouragement and praise his handwriting for being so good and awesome.

It's hard not to lose yourself in the praise.

The more Liu Ji wrote, the more he wrote. Finally, he spread out the extra red paper, lifted up his pen and showed off his pen, and wrote a big word "福".

Qin Yao passed by with a vegetable basin and glanced at it like a dog pawing. It really embarrassed the two old people, the village chief and the patriarch, and praised him without conscience.

Mrs. Zhang and Liu Zhong had been greeting the guests all morning. Seeing that the time was almost up, Mrs. Zhang asked the kitchen to start cooking and informed the guests to take their seats in preparation for the banquet.

Mrs. He was in charge of the dishes, while Mrs. Qiu was taking care of the baby in the room to greet her parents. Qin Yao looked around and found to her surprise that she, the half of the family, had to greet others to work and set up the tables, chairs, dishes and chopsticks.

Fortunately, she is not the owner of the water mill for free, and most of the women in the village are willing to do her job.

Qin Yao called a few free women and arranged for them to set up tables, chairs, dishes, and chopsticks. After doing this, while waiting for the food, she finally had time to meet today's little protagonist.

Da Mao was in particularly good spirits today. He stayed awake after eating. Maybe he knew that everyone was here to see him. He looked around with his dark eyes open, wondering if he could see anything.

Jinhua is the happiest today. Grandma, uncle and aunt are here, as well as cousins, and they have brought countless food and drinks.

Moreover, her cousin was willing to take her to play new games, unlike Jinbao and Erlang, who had always disliked their little followers.

Siniang came here at some unknown time and kept eating and drinking with her cousin.

Seeing Qin Yao come in to see the baby, she rushed over in surprise and asked Qin Yao to look at her pocket, "Mom! I'll give you some halva."

Qin Yao lowered her head and saw that her little pocket was stuffed with fried candies and peanuts. She had a pretty good record.

Qin Yao took out a piece of fried crispy candy from her pocket. As soon as she put it in her mouth, before she could taste it, Siniang asked eagerly:

"Is it delicious? It's delicious. My cousin said this candy can only be sold in their town."

Qin Yao nodded and replied perfunctorily, "It's delicious."

The little girl smiled, and when she heard cousin Jinhua calling her outside, she immediately rushed out.

Qin Yao said helplessly: "Don't run too far, the banquet is about to begin!"

"I know, it's right at the door. Brother and the others are all here." Siniang turned around and responded obediently.

Seeing Qin Yao waving, she followed Jin Hua's cousin and ran out.

Qin Yao came to the bedside, teased Da Mao who didn't know how to react, and followed Qiu to meet her natal family.

A group of people came around to ask for all kinds of information from her. Qin Yao was afraid, so she quickly found a reason and slipped out quickly.

The food was almost ready, and Mr. He called the big guys over to serve it.

Just as Qin Yao was about to leave, an ox cart unexpectedly stopped outside the gate. A lively old woman and a couple in their twenties got out of the cart and tentatively shouted to a group of children at the door: "Dalang? Erlang ?”

Mrs. Zhang thought that a visitor from afar had arrived, so she called Liu Zhong and hurriedly came out to greet him.

Then, both of their expressions changed.

Liu Zhong turned his head and shouted towards the main room: "Third brother, come quickly!"

Liu Ji walked to the door with an inexplicable expression. When he saw the three people outside the door, his expression also changed.

He suppressed shock and panic and looked at Zhang and Liu Zhong.

The two of them also looked at him at the same time, with shock in their eyes: Who invited them here?

Mrs. Zhang was the quicker to respond. Her expression froze for a moment and then she smiled with surprise, "My dear relatives are here? Please come in quickly!"

It's just that the smile was too forced, and the other person could see her embarrassment and surprise at a glance.

Liu Ji came back to his senses, first politely called the old woman mother-in-law, and then said politely to the young couple:

"Brother and sister-in-law, we haven't seen each other for a few years. How are you doing now? Are you all grown up now? You are just in time. The banquet is about to start. Come in quickly."

Brother Mo and Sister Mo nodded and helped their mother into the hospital.

Liu Ji also reached out to help him, and Mrs. Mo snorted coldly at him, "Liu Laosan, you have a new wife and forget about the old man. You are really prosperous now."

After he finished speaking, he turned to look at the children outside the hospital, his attitude was quite friendly.

"Da Lang Erlang, bring your younger brothers and sisters over and let them recognize their uncle and aunt."

Dalang Erlang led the confused twins to Mrs. Mo, "Grandma, uncle, aunt."

Qin Yao, who was standing in the corridor, blinked, and it turned out to be Liu Ji's ex-wife Mo's mother and eldest brother and sister-in-law.
