After transmigrating into a stepmother, I transformed my whole family to work on farming

Chapter 83
Liu Ji put the money away and suddenly realized that something was not right.

He can understand buying pens, inks, paper and inkstones for four children, but why are they asked to practice calligraphy?

It's just that Qin Yao couldn't delay any longer, hurriedly touched the faces of the four brothers and sisters, and was about to go back, without giving him a chance to ask questions.

The five father and son stood in front of the Ding Mansion's gate, watching her leave, and their emotions, which had been high just now, all fell down.

"Daddy, how long will it take for grandma to come back?" Siniang raised her little face and asked expectantly.

Liu Ji counted the days with his fingers, "There are still 20 days."

Saburo immediately asked: "How long is 20 days?"

"Soon, it passed in a blink of an eye." Liu Ji deceived.

Seeing that the door of Ding's house was closed, he waved to the bunch of candied haws behind him and raised the corners of his mouth, "Let's go, dad will take you to the town, let's go eat and drink spicy food!"

The depressed expressions of the four siblings immediately turned into anticipation. Holding hands and following behind him, the five father and son came to the town together.

There were a lot of people at the market today. The shops on the street were all open, and there were stalls selling various small items on the roadside. It was very lively.

Fearing that the child would get lost, Liu Ji held Sanlang and Siniang in his hands, and asked the two older sons to walk in front of him and watch.

The so-called food and drink means that after buying pens, inks and inkstones, they walked all the streets of the town from beginning to end, and finally had a little money left, so they bought a colorful rope for each person.

"Buy one for grandma too!" Siniang dragged grandpa's big hand, her buttocks dropped, and she wouldn't leave unless she bought it.

So, when Qin Yao accompanied Ms. Ding to catch a bucket of field fish on the farm and returned to the house, she accidentally received a colorful braided rope handed over by Zhang Ba.

"Ms. Qin, your husband-in-law is quite fond of you." Zhang Ba joked ambiguously.

Moreover, he didn't expect that the man from Madam Qin's family was so handsome, and he seemed to be a scholar. When he asked him to hand over the colorful rope to Madam Qin, he spoke in an elegant manner.

Qin Yao didn't know why Zhang Ba had such an outrageous idea, thanked him politely, and took the colored rope away.

A thin rope has five colors: red, yellow, white, green and blue, which represent the five elements. It has a good meaning that it can bring blessings and remove evil spirits.

Qin Yao lifted the colored rope and looked at it for a while, the corners of her mouth turned up unconsciously, she knew without guessing that it must have been chosen for her by the children.

The length of the rope is very long, and Qin Yao wrapped it around her wrist twice, making it a pretty hand rope.

But when he came back to the house and saw the zongzi sent by Miss Ding, the corner of his mouth twitched.

The zongzi was also tied with colorful ropes, which had nothing to do with the ones on her wrists, but were exactly the same!
Qin Yao picked up the rice dumplings, untied the rope and leaves, and tasted the red date meat rice dumplings, but her heart flew to the little Liujia Village.

It turns out that someone misses you. This is the feeling. There is a little bit of happiness and a little bit of hope.

As a migrant worker, Qin Yao works very responsibly during her working hours.

Even in addition to doing her job well, she also plays games with her employer.

However, after discovering that she could catch various small animals, Ms. Ding was no longer interested in role-playing games as a teacher.

She began to look forward to going out, wherever she could go, on the farm, on the hillside, in the woods.

Qin Yao can take her up trees and down rivers to catch fish. Occasionally, he can help her hunt small prey and come back for dinner in the evening.

The accompanying services provided by Qin Yao outside of these responsibilities are also paid.

Miss Ding originally only allowed her to read in the study, but now she can generously lend it to her and let her take it to her room to read.

Qin Yao took advantage of the three hours before going to bed at night to read as much as possible to understand all aspects of this era.

As well as some scientific examination experience and processes.

Ms. Ding has the most say in this matter. After all, her father and brother are both imperial examination candidates. She saw that Qin Yao wanted her stepson to study, so she didn't hesitate to tell her a lot.

At the same time, seeing Qin Yao's unconsciously gentle expression when he mentioned the stepchildren at home, he was a little envious.

After this year, it will be three years since my mother passed away.

She had a hunch that her father would marry again, and to a woman who would be beneficial to his career.

She was a little scared, but when she saw Qin Yao, she looked forward to it, what if she was also a good mother?

In late May, the cloudless sky took on a different look.

The sky began to rain, usually in the morning and evening, and it cleared up at noon. The ground in the mansion was wet and dry, dry and wet again, which made people very bored.

Qin Yao held the book and leaned against the window sill to read it, her heart still like water.

Ms. Ding spread out a piece of clean white rice paper, stood at the desk and wanted to draw a picture, but the pen was stained with ink, but she couldn't write it for a long time.

She tilted her head and thought about something. After a while, the brush fell down, and with a few brush strokes, a woman leaning against the window and reading a book appeared vividly on the paper.

Qin Yao glanced at it, the corners of her mouth slightly curved, thinking she was painting herself.

But when I looked again after a while, I saw that the facial features of the woman on the drawing paper had been outlined, and it was the face of a strange woman.

"I don't remember what my mother looked like."

So I drew this lady who has the same body shape as Qin Yao, but her face looks like her 'biological mother'.

Miss Ding looked at the painting in annoyance, and then at Qin Yao, her eyes looked like those of a discarded deer calf.

Qin Yao came over, put down the book in her hand, and opened her arms to her, "Come here, give me a hug."

She was surprised for a moment, then cautiously walked in front of her, tentatively, and snuggled into her arms little by little, it was as warm as imagined.

"Miss Qin, daddy sent a letter saying that he and brother will be home soon."

Miss Ding leaned into her arms and asked tentatively: "Can you tell me where your home is? If I want to find you anytime, I'm afraid I can't find you."

"Then you have to walk a long way. It takes an hour and a half to walk from the town to my house."

"I can ride a horse." She said persistently, "Anyway, if I have nowhere to go, I will come to you and bring my book as a reward."

"Will you take me in?" She raised her head and asked expectantly.

Qin Yao shook her head and answered firmly: "No."

Her home is not a kindergarten, any child can come.

What's more, she can't afford to offend Master Ding now.

The girl suddenly became angry, and wanted to ask her why, but she felt that it was unnecessary to ask, anyway, if she said no, she would not.

Qin Yao pushed her out of his arms and changed the subject, "How about I teach you to ride a horse, Bao Jiaojie, you just need to lend me a few books."

The girl just said that she could come to her house on horseback, but she had never even touched a horse.

Miss Ding really became interested and asked curiously, "What book do you want?"

Qin Yao pointed to the "Book of Changes", "Book of Changes", "Book of Songs", "Book of Rites", and "Spring and Autumn" on the bookshelf, which happened to be the Five Classics among the Four Books and Five Classics.

Miss Ding added with confidence, "Then you have to teach me archery and horse riding!"
