Chapter 198 You must have an accurate time
Author: Lian Xiaoai
That night, a strong wind blew in Liaodong, and the sand blown up by the wind hit the window with a "pop..." sound.
Fortunately, there are two layers of paper for the window, otherwise it would definitely be over.
Li Huai, who was sleeping soundly, subconsciously pressed close to Cheng Xue. She hurriedly pulled the quilt up and hugged the child tightly.
"Hey, what a coincidence, I just happened to have the windows of Uncle Jiang's house covered with paper today, otherwise this big wind would suffer a lot."
Li Hui was lying on the kang. Hearing this, he put one hand behind his head and said "hmm":
"There won't be any rain after this wind blows."
"...should be quite young."
Li Hui sighed softly, turned over and said to her again:
"It will take a few more days for our land to grow. I hope God will give me some support and we can wait until after the autumn harvest."
"I hope I can apply it on your face tomorrow night. Even if you apply it for several days, your skin will break out."
Occasionally, she would apply egg white and honey on her face. Although it was a little fishy, it was the best way to take care of herself. When she was eating in the morning, she noticed that her parents' faces were dry and flaky, so she joked that she would apply it on them when she came back in the evening.
I was prepared to be rejected, but I didn't expect that Li Hui was surprisingly cooperative. In this case, I went hunting while it was hot to avoid missing out on going to Fucheng.
Li Hui touched his face and said with a smile:
"Just apply it for the next few days. The wind here is too strong and my face will hurt after a day's work."
Don't look at it as lifting people up, but going to the ground to harvest in autumn, and it doesn't fall even a day.
At first he and Yan Yixin couldn't beat Li Heng. After all, he was a small farmer. But after two days of adapting, he was able to catch up. I believe that after this year's autumn harvest, he will be able to catch up with the child next year.
Autumn harvest is a real exercise for the body, but it’s also really cold. Especially when the north wind blows, it’s terrible. He never thought he would put it on his face, but now he has to do it, otherwise it’s too painful.
"Tomorrow is the eighth day of the week and there is a big market in town. I will take Tiantian and Tangtang to the market and buy some medicinal materials on the way to make a medicinal diet for you."
Autumn is a good time to take supplements. I heard Xiao Qinglin say that the competency test is scarier than the provincial exam, so I need to nourish his body in advance to avoid being unable to persist in the competency test.
Li Hui raised the corners of his mouth and was in a good mood. She cared so much about herself, so she had to do whatever she wanted, and she couldn't even leave any soup.
After a night of north wind, the sun shines brightly the next day, especially clear. But experienced farmers all know that it is holding back heavy rain. After breakfast, I called my family and did not dare to waste time to catch up with the autumn harvest.
Within three days, it rained heavily. When it cleared up and got up in the morning, a thin layer of ice would form on the water at midnight. Every household had to harvest the autumn harvest and paper their windows. Some people wanted to be dark at night, and some got up early.
At this time, Mr. Jiang Jianye and his wife were particularly grateful to Cheng Xue. Without her help, they would have been so busy. As for Qi, although she still had a cough, she was able to get up and help cook and clean the house.
Especially with Cheng Xue's treatment, although the acupuncture was a little uncomfortable.
It's not pain, it's an indescribable feeling, it's just uncomfortable.
Li Hui's family is the first in the village to finish the autumn harvest this year. The large open space at the head of the village where grain is dried is completely occupied by his family. By the time other people finish harvesting, their grain will be almost dried.
On the day the autumn harvest ended, Cheng Xue took out ten years of documents that had been written for several days. The salary remained unchanged, but starting from the third year, the salary would increase by one penny per year, with no upper limit.
In other words, the longer you work, the more you earn, provided you complete the daily tasks.
Among the twenty people, there were those who could read. After he finished reading and explaining, he took the lead in writing down his name and pressing his fingerprints. Seeing this, the others followed suit. Although there were still some doubts, they could find a fixed and long answer.
It's not easy for people to do it.
Cheng Xue put away the document and looked specifically at the first person to sign, named Ma Kuo, from Beiwei Village.
"Since everyone has no objections, you can call me 'Boss' from now on. I have no other requirements, that is, you must come to my place first for spring plowing and autumn harvest every year. After you finish the work, you can go wherever you want, I won't stop you. Wait.
Next, you go to Li Zhong to collect three feet of woolen green cloth. As long as everyone completes the task within the regulations, you will be rewarded. This year it is three feet of woolen green cloth."
When everyone heard this, they all called "Boss".
The wages were settled happily like this, and it was not easy for people to return the money to Mao Qingbu after the work was done, so they just picked it up.
"Ma Kuo, please order four people to stay with you. Manpower is needed to dry and collect the grain. The wages are eight cents per day. They will take care of food and housing."
"Yes, boss." After Ma Kuo finished speaking, he directly named four fellow villagers.
Seeing that she had no other instructions, everyone left. The accommodation for Ma Kuo and others had already been arranged, and Wen Tian had two rooms left, which were more than enough for five people.
Cheng Xue put the documents into the box and saw Li Hui looking at her, but Quan pretended not to see it.
I really don't blame her for being angry. In order to replenish his body these past few days, she made special and careful medicinal meals. Who would have thought that this guy would have such a fatherly heart that he would feed Li Huai when he saw his gluttony.
Fortunately, it was discovered in time, and the child only ate one mouthful, and there was no serious problem. He had to eat more, and if something went wrong, he would not be able to find the door even if he cried.
She put her things down, ignored the voice calling her, and went to the door. Just as she was about to open the door, a big palm wrapped around her Rou Yi, but Cheng Xue shook it off and took two steps back.
"What are you doing? Are you acting like a hooligan?"
"I have an idea, would you mind?"
Cheng Xue felt her heart skip a beat, gave him a hard look, and said "No".
As expected, Li Hui was not discouraged. He leaned against the door and said with a smile:
"Let me apologize to you first. It was my fault that day."
"Wrong that day? Where did it go wrong?" Cheng Xue raised her eyebrows slightly.
You little boy, if you dare to say "everything is wrong", I will let you sleep in the study tonight!
"The mistake is that you should not give Si Dan medicated food. The mistake is that you should not beg for mercy when you are educating the children. The mistake is..."
She said several things in a row, all of which have made her angry recently. So it’s not that men can’t admit their mistakes, it just depends on whether they take it seriously and take it seriously.
"...It's really wrong. Don't be angry. I will definitely change it in the future."
There was absolutely no way to criticize her attitude. Cheng Xue reluctantly said "hmm" and nodded.
Li Hui knew that this matter had turned upside down, so he was so busy that he continued:
"Then let's talk about something. I haven't found a suitable opportunity. I think we..."
"Do you think now is the time to talk about this?"
Seeing her interrupting him, Li Hui frowned in confusion.
"Why not? Aren't you even angry?"
"I'm not angry if I'm not angry, but I really don't have time right now. Dong Bin came to see me before going to work and said that his wife was not feeling well."
"Then I'll wait for you to come back?" Li Hui retreated and asked for the next best thing.
For big things that concern you, you must have an accurate time.
Cheng Xue chuckled, patted his shoulder, and the old god said:
"Brother, have you forgotten that the patriarch asked you to rewrite the family tree? It's so sacred, so let's put those trivial matters aside for now."
Although Li Nan, Li Fang and others separated from each other, their names were still on the genealogy. Li Qingchun was going to copy it again and completely erase their traces...
