Xianyu's leisurely life through books

Chapter 13 Operation Sao to a New Height

At noon, the sun became more and more fierce.

Song's mother was sitting under the shade of a tree drinking water, turning her head frequently, with a gloomy expression on her face.

It was the intersection back to Song's house.

Song Yu came over with a hoe and sat down beside her: "Mother, is there gold at the intersection?"

Mother Song handed him a bowl of water, and said angrily, "Why do I look over there, don't you know?"

"Didn't Xiaoxiao guarantee that she will definitely complete her task?"

"As far as her speed of weeding is concerned, she is not much faster than Sister Wen. Now she dares to go home and be lazy. How can she complete the task?" Mother Song was annoyed.

"Okay, if she can't finish it, it will be dark, and I'll carry her into the field and pull it out, okay?" Song Yu persuaded, "Don't get angry."

Mother Song snorted coldly: "You are not allowed to help her."

"Okay, listen to my mother."

The youngest son had a good attitude, Song's mother calmed down a bit, and said: "You have been standing for a long time, go back, don't get tired from your legs again."

Song Yu's legs and feet will also suffer from overwork, so he usually spends most of the day in the field during the busy farming season.

Hunting is naturally three days of fishing and two days of drying nets.

Fortunately, he has kung fu and is good at archery. He was able to hunt a lot last time.

Song Yu nodded: "Well, I'll go to Jiabo's side to have a look."

After the busy season is over, he needs two bows to teach Song Ting and Erfang's nephew Song Xiao how to archery.

Jiabo is a carpenter in the village. There are wood and tools there. He used to make two sets of bows and arrows.

Not long after Song Yu left, an unexpected visitor appeared on the field of the Song family.

Mother Song was a little puzzled: "Daughter-in-law Tie Zhu, you want to go up the mountain?"

Tie Zhu's family's field is not here, but his wife appears here, which is a bit strange.

"Brother Yu's daughter-in-law hired me for half a day to pull weeds."

Mother Song thought she heard it wrong, and raised her voice slightly: "What?"

"Xiaoxiao hired me to do half a day's work...Auntie, don't worry, I can move quickly."

Tie Zhu's daughter-in-law is notoriously hardworking, comparable to Xiao Han's.

Of course, Mother Song didn't question whether she was capable, but was irritated by Pei Xiaoxiao's coquettish manipulation.

Is this what people do?
No, is this what a village woman should do?

Did she think she was the eldest lady of the city or the landlord?
And hire people to do the work.

Xiao Han was also very upset.

According to the rules of the Song family, all the extra money earned by everyone must be handed over to Song's mother for management.

Song Yu's hunting income must be handed over to the public.

And Pei Xiaoxiao's own dowry has been exhausted, otherwise she would not have sold cattle or children.

Just like that, none of the dozen or so taels they had treated before had been taken from the official account!
Where did the money come from?
Xiao Han has reason to suspect that Song Yu must be ignorant when he usually hunts.

But to do this kind of thing, it's fine to come secretly, and you still brazenly use the money from the company to hire someone to do the work!
Too much!
Xiao Han suppressed her anger: "Sister-in-law, Pei Xiaoxiao invited you without our consent, we didn't agree, look..."

Tie Zhu's daughter-in-law has a bad face: "Whoever pays me, I will listen to whoever."

"She took our money!"

"It's impossible for me to refund the money anyway."

Song's mother darkened her eyebrows: "Okay, let's work quickly."

When I go back tonight, I must let Pei Xiaoxiao figure out who she really is!
Song family.

Pei Xiaoxiao washed her hair beautifully and took a shower, feeling like she finally came back to life.

She dragged the rocking chair in the yard to the room, and lay on it to dry her hair.

She didn't know that she almost sent away several people in the field when she asked Tie Zhu's wife to work.

To be precise, she could have expected it, but didn't care.

People, you have to do what you are good at.

Anyway, just complete the task, you don't care what method I use.

The doors and windows of the room were all open, and there was wind. Pei Xiaoxiao lay on the rocking chair, quite comfortable, and fell asleep in a daze.

The sun moved slowly westward.

"Xiaoxiao, are you home?"

Hearing the original owner's best friend's voice vaguely, she opened her eyes cleverly.

"Yes." Pei Xiaoxiao got up quickly, tied up her hair casually with a headband, and walked quickly to the door, "Is there any pork belly?"

"Yes, I bought two for you, one for three Wen." Song Fang said, "Hey, the chicken and mung bean cake you wanted are here."

"Also, the rest of the money is here."

"Thank you." Pei Xiaoxiao took the things and smiled broadly.

When I came back from the field today, I saw many free-range chickens when I passed the village.

Ancient free-range chicken with no feed and no antibiotics, don't be too fragrant.

She nearly drools.

At that time, I was missing the taste of pork belly and chicken, so I met Song Fang, who was going to the county, and asked the helper to see if there was any pork belly for sale.

I didn't expect to be so lucky, buy two for one!
Song Fang: "Pig sewage stinks even dogs. What do you use it for?"

"Of course I eat it!"

Song Fang's expression was indescribable: "My Xiaoxiao, what have you been through?"

Pei Xiaoxiao stopped arguing and squeezed out two pieces of mung bean cake from the paper bag: "Here, here you are."

Song Fang looked displeased: "What is the relationship between us, and I'm still my guest... um..."

"Eat it, you." Pei Xiaoxiao stuffed the mung bean cake directly into her mouth, and said, "Okay, I'll be busy first, see you later."

Song Fang shook her head and left.

Pei Xiaoxiao is a foodie.

She doesn't like to do housework, but there is one thing that makes an exception: cooking.

In her previous life, once she tasted some delicious food outside, she would try her best to learn it.

Pork belly chicken is not difficult to make, but it is a bit troublesome to wash the pork belly.

There is a lot of mucus inside the pork belly, which must be washed with flour.

She went straight into the kitchen, rummaged for a while, and finally saw white flour in the cupboard.

While washing, a few children who went to pull weeds in the field came back.

Someone with sharp eyes saw the plucked chicken on the stove.

"Ah, is there any meat for tonight?"

"Mother, do you want to cook for us?"

Five or six children cheered and rushed into the kitchen.

Pei Xiaoxiao nodded with a smile: "Yes, I have delicious meat and delicious soup tonight."

In the past, the original owner was not close to all the children of the Song family at all.

She has been recuperating these days, and she is very bored, so she teases them from time to time, and the relationship has become much closer.

Song Xue, the eldest girl in the big house, noticed what Pei Xiaoxiao was holding, and her eyes were strange: "Third Aunt, are you washing pigs into the water?"

"Yes, pork belly, it's delicious."

Song Xue: "But grandma said... pig offal smells bad, it's not for people to eat."

Pei Xiaoxiao's face was full of superiority: "That's because they don't know how to wash."

These words had no effect, and the children still stared at her strangely.

Pei Xiaoxiao became playful: "This pork belly is going to be stewed with chicken, do you still dare to eat chicken?"

"Ah, no……"

"Don't...you can't eat the chicken if it stinks..."

"Third Aunt, why don't you think about it again?"

Several children wailed and begged.

Pei Xiaoxiao was unmoved: "No, it must be cooked with chicken."

Xiao Songwen looked at her brothers and sisters, then at Pei Xiaoxiao, and asked in a low voice, "Mother, can you not cook it with chicken, my sister said that chicken will stink."

Pei Xiaoxiao shook her head: "No."

"Is it really not possible? The little girl's big clear eyes were covered with fog.

This aggrieved and cute little expression...

Pei Xiaoxiao's heart relented, and she let go and said, "Then is this good? Later on, mother will make pork belly. You can try it. If it doesn't smell bad and tastes good, then shall we cook it with chicken again?"

From the corner of her eye, Song Wen caught sight of her elder brother and sister nodding sharply, she immediately cheered, and rushed forward to hug Pei Xiaoxiao's waist: "Mother is so kind! Wenwen likes mother the most."

The soft milk ball released love and enthusiasm to herself like a little milk dog, Pei Xiaoxiao's heart melted into a puddle of water.

I wanted to reach out and touch her head, but my hands were too dirty, so I had to give up.

Song Qi walked in at this moment.

"What are you doing?"
