Lingquan, a peasant girl: the bully in the whole family is just me

Chapter 22 They Are Worth More Than Uncle
The Yao family hadn't had any decent things to borrow for more than ten years, and they basically relied on threats to borrow things. This time, people who earned wages at the Yao family took the initiative to borrow the tables and benches.

After most of the guests had gone, only the helping women were left in the kitchen.

The Yao family is the only one in the village to buy servants. The helpers don't have to do too much work, but they can prepare extra ingredients for the table. Most of the ingredients are vegetables, and there are also fat meat, meatballs, bacon and so on. The women were even more displeased with the meat dishes, and took the initiative to clean up the yard where Yao's family was entertaining guests before leaving.

After sending off the last group of people who helped, Yao Lan closed the door, looked at her father and brother who were still drinking the wine, shook her head helplessly, and felt very happy in her heart.

From now on, this house will be their new home.

She is not very sociable, so she closed the door and let out a long breath, feeling a lot more relaxed.

With a new house and a lot of money wasted, Yao Lan naturally refused to share a bed with Yan Yuanhao anymore.

Their residence was a small courtyard, and a row of green bamboos were planted on the side of the courtyard wall. Only a few days after transplanting, she secretly poured two rounds of spiritual spring water, and now it can be said to be verdant.

It is said to be a small courtyard, similar to the entire Yao family before, with a total of three rooms. In the middle is the main room with desks and chairs at the entrance, and a bed on the left and right. She and Yan Yuanhao sleep on one side.

Yao Xiangbei originally thought that husband and wife should not sleep in separate beds, can they have grandchildren apart?
Yao Lan said: "He has an injury on his leg, what if I turn over and break it?"

Yao Xiangbei evaluated his daughter's weight and thought it was possible.

Yan Yuanhao said: "Does the lady despise her husband?"

Yao Lan asked back: "Every day a beautiful woman lies next to you but can only look at but not eat, is it you who dislike it?"

Yan Yuanhao was speechless, who exactly were the Yao family?He has given up refreshing his cognition.

And so it was settled.

As for the other two rooms, they are corner rooms, which are small in size. The one near Yao Lan's residence is used as a storage room, and the other one is used as a cleaning room next to Yan Yuanhao's residence.

If the people in the village know about making good tile-roofed houses into clean houses, they will probably scold them for their longevity. You must know that more than half of the people in the village still live in thatched houses.

In the early morning of the next day, Yao Lan, who was finally able to sleep well in a bed alone, got up early.

The aroma of the kitchen wafts around.

The guests ate too much yesterday, and all the things that could be given away were given away. Today, there is no oil for cooking at home, and Aunt Hua was squeezing oil in the kitchen early in the morning.

Yao Lan doesn't know how to extract oil. If she hadn't eaten a few meals of miscellaneous batter at Yao's house, she would definitely reject lard. She used to eat tea oil, peanut oil and the like.

Staring at the fat meat that was cut into small pieces in the pot, he asked Aunt Hua, "Aunt Hua, is this stove easy to use?"

Aunt Hua was originally a servant girl from a wealthy family. Although she was a servant girl, she was decent because she followed the old lady, and her life was better than that of young ladies from small families.

It's a pity that the master's house was raided, and these servants will naturally be exiled. They have only been in the exile village for three years, and they look like they have been wasted for 30 years. In fact, they are only 21 years old, and they look older than her father.

The same is true of her man, Uncle Hua. He is the son of the chief steward of the master's family, and his life is very good. Unfortunately, the world is changing, let alone these servants, the master's family is gone.

Looking at Uncle Hua who was splitting wood, his hands were dark and deformed, and dark red bloody cuts could be seen in some places.

The couple felt very fortunate that they were bought by the Yao family. They knelt down and kowtowed in various courtyards for a few days, and kept saying that they were blessed by the gods and escaped from the sea of ​​suffering.

Aunt Hua didn't think there was anything wrong with Yao Lan being fat. People with no family background could not raise such a fat man, and people with no family background didn't need servants.

Listening to Yao Lan's initiative to ask, she quickly smiled and said: "It's easy to use, easy to use, very easy to use."

Yao Lan didn't know much about stoves, so she felt that the current poor craftsmanship was because the stove had to light a fire, and the poor craftsmanship in the past was because the induction cooker was not easy to use.

As the small pieces of fat rolled out into golden oil bubbles, the fragrance continued to flow out, and half of the bottom of the pot was already filled with oil and water.

"Miss, do you like oil residue?" Aunt Hua asked tentatively.

Originally, the master only wanted to buy a laundry lady, but she begged hard to bring his husband out.The two spent Yao Xiangbei 13 taels of silver, she still knew it in her heart.

Back then, don't mention the old lady, it's just these first-class maids, who didn't have a private house of two 300 taels of silver?

She was lucky to be able to save her life by confiscating the house. As for her entanglement with the 13 taels of money of her husband and wife, it was because they heard that the new son-in-law only spent four taels of silver.

The exile village is bigger than Tangjia Village, with two to 3000 people. It's not surprising that they don't know that small area, but they are worth more than the uncle, so they have to be a man with their tails between their legs.

They just want to live in peace and security.

Yao Lan doesn't want to eat oil residue, she wants to lose weight!

But looking at Aunt Hua's expectant eyes, she still said, "Eat a little."

Aunt Hua immediately went to take out half of the bowl and put it in a porcelain bowl aside, reminding her for fear of causing trouble, "Wait for a while, eat it when it's cold."

Yao Lan naturally said yes.

After all the oil in the pot was boiled, Aunt Hua put the oil residue into another large plate, and then carefully put the boiled oil into the oil tank before handing the chopsticks to Yao Lan, "Miss, please try .”

Yao Lan tasted a piece, and it was not as greasy as expected, "Did you add salt?"

Aunt Hua said: "Seeing that the weather is about to heat up, adding some salted lard can preserve it longer."

Sure enough, there are specializations in the art industry.

With the little master's approval, Aunt Hua continued: "This fried vegetable with oil residue tastes good, and it tastes even better when made into stuffed buns."

Yao Lan had never eaten buns stuffed with oil residue, so the Yao family ate steamed buns stuffed with oil residue in the morning, and Yao Lan's plan to lose weight had to be postponed for another meal, but she had tried her best and ate three.

Yao Xiangbei never planted land when he was the poorest, but now his family has more than [-] acres of land, but he is very active. He walks in his own field with his hands behind his back every day, pulling weeds and watering from time to time. , Bring back the ungrown cabbage cores to the scourge.

God has not rained for more than a month, and every household has to water the ground.

The Wu family and other families also came out to carry water every day. Yao Lan promised to water the fields in summer. It's not summer yet, but summer crops need more than just a little water.

There was no rain in the sky, but the spring flood in the river had begun to rise, and the rain might have fallen upstream.

It is better to irrigate the land with water than without water. It is better for people whose land is close to the river, and some people who are far away use a wheelbarrow to push a bucket to water the land. It is very hard to go back and forth.
