Doomsday wearing female honor: I rely on space to farm and raise my husband

Chapter 22
Seeing him digging the ground with a hoe, Fang Qing frowned and said, "Brother Lin, come and pick up the unwanted dry firewood in the field, and I will dig it."

"My wife, can you dig?" He didn't forget who said he couldn't farm.

"Yes, why not dig the ground." Fang Qing squandered the hoe in his hand, and Zhang Zelin saw that his wife was digging well, so he picked up the machete to pick up unwanted dry wood in the vegetable garden.

Fang Qing dug out a piece, and she thought that this piece should be planted with vegetable seedlings first.

"Brother Lin, come and plant this piece of land first, and dig the rest tomorrow." Zhang Zelin picked up the dry firewood in the field, took a hoe and dug with his wife, and after digging for a while, he heard his wife said to plant this piece of land first, He got up to get the vegetable seedlings.

When the two returned to the yard, Fang Qing picked up the wooden bucket to fetch water from the well and carried it to the vegetable garden. After the water was planted, the vegetable seedlings were planted for watering the field. After Fang Qing carried the water, he and Zhang Zelin cut the vegetable seedlings to the soil. inside.

A dozen or so vegetable seedlings were quickly planted, and Zhang Zelin looked at the bare vegetable garden and said, "Let's go and chop some firewood tomorrow, and surround the vegetable garden, or our chickens will dig it."

"Okay, go chop some and come back tomorrow. Let's get busy here today after the vegetables are planted!"

"It's still early, should we dig some more?"

"No, I'll cook, you go make clothes out of cloth." Zhang Zelin wore the same clothes when she went to the city the day before yesterday, and she also wore the same clothes today. She cursed herself for being careless and not paying attention to his poor clothes. It's still early to let him make new clothes.

"I'll make new clothes at night, and we'll dig some more ground."

Seeing the man who was about to dig the ground, Fang Qing took the hoe in his hand, took him to the yard, fetched water and washed his hands, went to the living room to get the pears he bought the day before, because he got married these two days, he forgot all about the pears.

"Brother Lin, wash your hands quickly, wash your hands and eat pears."

Fang Qing took out the pears and pastries, and shouted to the people who were tidying up the yard.

"Here we come..." Zhang Zelin threw some dry firewood into the firewood room, washed his hands, went to sit on a stool, and picked up a pear to eat. "This pear is too expensive. After a while, the pears in the village will be ripe, so don't buy any more."

Fang Qing smiled and said nothing, Zhang Zelin is her husband, and the two of them will live together in the future, she will definitely buy him something delicious, as for whether she agrees to buy it or not, that is her business.

"Brother, sister-in-law!"

"Shitou, you're here, come and have a snack." Fang Qing saw his sister-in-law coming, and asked Shitou to come over quickly.

"Third Sister, where did you go to play?" Zhang Zelin asked angrily and smiled when he saw his younger sister who was all dressed in dirt.

"I was playing with Daniu at the intersection, and she went home. I passed by my brother-in-law's house on my way home, so I came in to see my eldest brother and sister-in-law."

Although Zhang Zelin was angry and asked his sister, he didn't scold her. It was rare for his sister to play with the friends in the village, so he was too happy!

"Come on, wash your hands quickly, wash your hands and go eat pastries." Zhang Zelin brought a basin of water and asked his sister to wash her hands quickly. Her clothes were full of dirt and her face was like a cat.

"Shitou, seeing that my brother brought her some delicious food, she ate a pear and two pieces of pastries, and stopped eating."

"Why don't you eat?" Fang Qing rubbed her head and asked.

"Don't eat it, save it for my sister-in-law to make snacks."

Hearing her sensible words, Fang Qing picked her up and said with a smile, "Eat it! My sister-in-law will buy it after eating."

Shi Shi still wanted to talk, Zhang Zelin put the dried fruit in her little hand, nodded her forehead and said, "You little girl, eat quickly, there are more here!"

"Shitou, why are you called Shishi?" Fang Qing was really curious about how this name came from, and why he took such an ugly name.

When Zhang Zelin saw his wife asking about the origin of his sister's name, he opened his mouth to explain to his wife.

"Brother An and I were called Big Brother and Second Brother before!"

Fang Qing heard that her husband was called eldest brother, and she continued to ask: "Then why did you call him Brother Lin later?"

"Because my mother spent one or two silver dollars to find the scholar's grandma in the city to ask for the name of me and An Geer. My mother died when Shi Shi was two years old, because the family was heavily in debt after my mother passed away. I don’t have the money to give Shishi a name.” Zhang Zelin told his wife the origin of his name.

Fang Qing heard her husband's name, and even spent one tael of silver to beg for it from a scholar, and asked in surprise, "Is this how all the names in the village are chosen?"

"Those who have money ask Grandma Xiucai to take it; those who have no money call them Daniu, Erniu, Gousheng, Dazhu..."

"Pfft!" Fang Qing chuckled, Zhang Zelin saw her smile, and lightly pinched her waist, it was like this in the village, so there was no fuss.

"My future children will be picked by themselves, and the scholars in the city may not be as nice as me." Fang Qing expressed her thoughts after being pinched by her husband.

"The wife takes it by herself, can the wife know how to read?" Zhang Zelin heard the wife said their child's name, and the wife wanted to pick it by herself. He subconsciously glanced at the wife's belly.

"Cut! Isn't it just literacy, I can compose poetry if you ask me."

Shitou heard his sister-in-law talk about poetry, and exclaimed in surprise: "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, what you said is true."

After Zhang Zelin finished her bragging, he looked at his wife, who actually said that she could read and write, but she was a literate person.

Fang Qing was looked at adoringly by her husband, and suddenly felt a little flustered. "Brother Lin, Shitou, you two are waiting!"

She put the stone on the stool and sat down, walked quickly back to an empty room, and took out the Four Treasures of the Study she had put here.

"Brother Lin, Shitou, I'll write it for you two." Fang Qing took out the four treasures of the study, rubbed the ink with well water rudely, picked up a brush and wrote the words Zhang Zelin and Shitou on the white paper.

Zhang Zelin saw his wife came out with the Four Treasures of the Study, and sat upright in a serious manner. In his opinion, being able to read and write is a great thing.

"Brother Lin, these three characters are your name, and these two characters are made of stone." Fang Qing told the two of them the words on the paper.

Zhang Zelin saw the three characters of his name, and he and his sister were on the paper, so he raised his head and asked, "Then what are the two characters of your name?"

Fang Qing listened to his words, waved his brush and wrote the word "Fang Qing". When his wife finished writing these two words, Zhang Zelin never left his eyes, staring at these two words closely, as if I want to print these two words in my heart.

Seeing him staring at her name non-stop, Fang Qing felt as if something had burst out of her heart, she pulled his hand and said, "Brother Lin, I will teach you how to read tonight."

Zhang Zelin couldn't believe it, his eyes widened and he stammered and asked, "Can I learn?"

"Of course, there is nothing impossible"

"Sister-in-law, I want to learn too." Shitou said in an unpleasant way.

"Okay, if you have time, go to sister-in-law's house, and sister-in-law will teach you and your elder brother.

Shitou got the promise from his sister-in-law, and ran home happily. When he went to bed at night, he happily told his father what his brother-in-law said. After Xia Ye heard what his daughter said, he began to think for himself.

Fang Qing was behind the stone, and she whispered on Zhang Zelin's mouth, "Brother Lin, is my name so beautiful?"

"Well, wife master..." Zhang Zelin was so scared by the sudden kiss from his wife master that he pushed him away. "My wife, it's not dark yet!"

Hearing what he said, Fang Qing got up and patted the dust off his body. "Go make new clothes, and I'll make delicious food for you."
