The mother and son were full for breakfast. Zhou Dawa wanted to go out to play when she was full, but she was detained by Lin Qinghe: "Mother, go wash your clothes. You will take care of your brothers at home. You will go out when I come back."
Zhou Dawa's meal from yesterday to this morning was too satisfying for him, so she just didn't refute her.
Lin Qinghe went to wash the clothes.
There is a river at the end of the village, and they are all washed there.
"Auntie, the autumn harvest will be over in a few days, do you still need firewood at home?"
Lin Qinghe used a wooden board to beat her clothes, especially Zhou Dawa's clothes. They were really dirty, and she missed the washing machine era so much. At this time, a little girl came over and asked.
Lin Qinghe looked back at the person, and the memory emerged: "It's Xiaoxi, yes, the firewood at home is indeed almost burned out. Go back and tell your elder brother, when the autumn harvest is finished, ask him to send it to me, how many The money will be calculated as much as you want."
This little girl is called Zhou Xi, she is only about ten years old, and her brother is called Zhou Dong, fifteen this year.
The ancestors of the brothers and sisters are also relatives of the old Zhou family, but they are far apart now.
My parents disappeared a few years ago. It was really not easy for the siblings to have a life, but her brother Zhou Dong is a promising man, even if he is still young, but he just follows the adults to work and can get two points of work.
This is not much food, but in the end the team took pity on their siblings, so with the consent of everyone, they gave a little more when they distributed the food, and the neighbors occasionally saved a bite. The siblings passed on like this.
Originally, the brothers and sisters had nothing to do with the original owner, but the original owner was lazy.
Her own son was still too young to rely on, so she asked her natal brother to send her firewood, occasionally giving a little hard money.
But later the natal brother got married and was strictly controlled by the sister-in-law, so he didn't come back.
At this time, the original owner is going to make the firewood by himself. Where is the original owner willing to let her well-maintained hands do this rough work, unless the conditions do not allow her, she doesn't want to wash the dishes and clothes by herself!
But in desperation, she could only pick up the firewood once. In the original owner’s impression, there is no other way to live better than this and ruin people...
So she hit her mind on Zhou Dong, who was twelve years old at the time.
Ask him to get her firewood back to burn it, as if she bought it for him, Zhou Dong was not happy, so he went all the way.
The foreign original owner said that this is not a faction of capital. It is based on the success of their brothers and sisters, and they don't want them to owe her favors. That's why they did it.
No one in the village knew her temperament, but every time the original owner paid a lot of money to Zhou Dong.
When it’s less, it’s a dime, and when it’s a lot, it’s two dime. But don’t underestimate the two dime. For the brothers and sisters Zhou Dong and Zhouxi who have no other income except for work, the savings will be enough to make more money. It allows them to eat a three-pointer full during the winter days when they can't earn work points.
So even if the villagers knew in their hearts that the original owner was hiring child labor, there was nothing to say.
Now Zhou Dong is fifteen years old, and the original owner will give him two cents every time he sends firewood over, because he grows up and has a lot of manpower, and every time he sends a lot of firewood.
And this is also an important income for the brothers and sisters.
Hearing what she said, Zhou Xi was really happy and said: "Okay, then I will go back and tell my elder brother that I can collect a lot of firewood when the autumn harvest is over." Then he said: "Auntie, this meeting. No one, let me wash your clothes!"
The original owner had asked her elder brother to carry the firewood. Although Zhou Xi was eager to wash her clothes, he still wanted to shave her face, and they all refused.
But if there is no one, the original owner will let her wash it.
There are really no people at this meeting, there are in the downstream, not here.
If the original owner is there, it would be really not polite. The original owner thinks he is still taking care of their brother and sister, so what happened to asking her to wash some clothes
But Lin Qinghe wasn't the original owner, and he hadn't cultivated to that level.
"No, there are not a few clothes. When the autumn harvest is over, you will go with your brother when the time comes. Auntie will have to prepare more firewood for the winter, so I need a lot." Lin Qinghe said.
"Don't worry, Auntie, I will definitely send it to Auntie." Zhou Xi nodded.
Lin Qinghe nodded, and said: "You go back, I'm almost done washing it too."
Zhou Xi saw that she really didn't plan to let her wash, so she went back first, and then told her elder brother who was going to work.
"I'll go when the autumn harvest is over!" Zhou Dong said.
Now he can get six points of work, and life should have been better, but after all, he grows older and eats more.
Zhou Xi is following at work now, but she can only get two work points.
Lin Qinghe sneaked out some soap here to wash it. It was faster when there was soap. She washed her clothes and went home soon. As for the sister-in-law washing clothes downstream on Tuesday, I saw it, but she didn't go to say hello either.
Because of the relationship between the original owner and this Tuesday's wife, that's really bad.
On Tuesday, my sister-in-law took sister-in-law Zhou's eldest daughter Zhou Dani and several women downstream to wash the clothes of the family. Naturally, I saw Lin Qinghe walking back, but also didn't say hello.
The other women said sourly: "You wives' days, but you are really more happy than the old landlord's."
"Don't talk nonsense about this, what an old landlord, we have three generations of poor peasants from our ancestors, so poor." On Tuesday, my sister-in-law said immediately. Although Lin Qinghe is not pleasing to his eyes, how can the old landlord's hat make people buckle up to old age? Zhou's head.
"There is no other meaning, that is, she has a very good life this time, with three sons, but you see her face and figure, no one will not believe that she is not married," said another sister-in-law.
"I heard she used vanilla clam oil to wipe her face every day to intervene!" said the person in front.
"Such a prodigal, don't blame her face that looks so tender that she can pinch water out!" Someone said bitterly.
No one’s life is tight, but the four daughters-in-laws of the old Zhou family are not in the same class as them. They have always slapped themselves beautifully, their faces and figures are trimmed like foxes. of.
Of course they didn't dare to swear directly, otherwise they were looking for something. Lin Qinghe wasn't a swallow, so they just muttered behind their backs.
On Tuesday, my sister-in-law took Zhou Dani to wash her clothes and went home. She didn't take it seriously when she ran into Lin Qinghe. It was no surprise.
As for Lin Qinghe talking about the original owner behind his back, of course it is no different from talking about her now, and she is also not taking it seriously.
She is actually quite satisfied with the original owner's maintenance of her figure and face. She can't deny this, and she can't get cheap and sell well.
So they like to say what to say, don't talk about it in front of her.
However, Lin Qinghe remembered it when he was drying the clothes. It was when he told Zhou Xi to save up firewood for the winter.
According to the development of the plot, it seems vaguely that the villain dad is injured at this time
