Farm widows have space, pick up a treasure on the way to escape

Chapter 87 Lu Xiaoyang’s plan failed

"Uncle Song, Uncle Yong, are you going to wash your feathers by the river again? I'll help you!"

Lu Xiaoyang was helping to build a house not far away. When he saw Zhang Song and others preparing to carry sacks with feathers to the river for cleaning, he came over without saying a word with his crutches.

"Just do your own thing, we don't need help here!"

Zhang Song knew that the Lu family hated Lu Xiaoyang, so he didn't have a very good attitude towards him.

However, Lu Xiaoyang seemed to be completely unable to hear the rejection in Zhang Song's words, and shamelessly stepped forward to help carry the sacks.

"Can't you hear what I said?"

Zhang Song was immediately furious. He was such a good young man, why did he act like a rogue?

Lu Xiaoyang smiled playfully: "Hey hey hey, I just want to help! This is not for several sacks!"

As he spoke, he tried to grab the sack from Zhang Song's hand. Zhang Song dodged and was about to speak when he saw Mr. Sun coming out of the thatched shed and yelling at the top of his lungs: "Lu Xiaoyang! You little brat, if you can't work well, , just get out of here!"

Lu Xiaoyang was indeed startled and hurriedly retracted his hand, but thinking of his current situation, he still walked towards Sun shamelessly.

"Third Grandma, I just want to help!"

"Huh, help?" Mrs. Sun sneered, "Have you finished your own work? If I find you cheating again, don't blame our Lu family for not being able to tolerate you!"

"Third Grandma, don't be angry. I don't mean anything else. It's just that my legs and feet are not very sharp now. It's too tiring to build a house, carry bricks and carry trees. I really can't stand it. Can you arrange some easy work for me?" ?I know Uncle Song and Uncle Yong are going to wash their feathers, I can help with that, I promise they will be washed cleanly!"

Lu Xiaoyang smiled with squinted eyes, as if no matter what Sun said, he would not be angry.

Mrs. Sun was so angry at him that she stared at him: "Whether you want to do it or not, get out! If you don't finish your work today, you won't be able to eat!"

Lu Xiaoyang's food was provided by the Lu family, but there was no salary, six steamed buns a day, and nothing else. It was impossible to sit down with the Lu family and enjoy spicy food.

Six steamed buns only cost three cents, which is incomparable to other people's wages of fifteen cents a day.

Within a few days, Lu Xiaoyang felt very dissatisfied, and then he thought about finding some easy work for himself.

"I'll tell you again, if you want to do it, do it well. If you don't want to do it, get out. Our Lu family doesn't owe you anything!"

Sun became angrier as he talked, and even pushed him.

Lu Xiaoyang's legs and feet are inconvenient, but fortunately he still has a cane, otherwise he would really fall down.

"Third Grandma, I have good intentions, please don't do anything!"

Lu Xiaoyang was hiding from Sun with difficulty. If he hadn't still expected the Lu family to spend the winter, he would have given up, but now he really had nowhere to go.

He Jiuniang and others also came out to watch. When they saw Mrs. Sun attacking Lu Xiaoyang, no one stepped forward to stop her.

The Lu family took him in out of love, not out of obligation, and not as a means for him to mess around.

After Mrs. Sun beat him a few times to vent her anger, He Jiuniang stepped forward and said: "I told you very clearly before that the family only needs your help in building a house, and I will give you six cornbreads every day. If you don't want to, I can help you at any time." You can leave, but what does it matter if you come to make trouble now?"

After a period of contact, Lu Xiaoyang knew that He Jiu Niang was very important in the Lu family, so he straightened his attitude and said to her: "Third Aunt, I don't want to be lazy, but I just think that my legs and feet are inconvenient and I really can't do the heavy work. I want to help the family with other things, I’m really not here to cause trouble.”

"Did one of my family members break your leg?" He Jiuniang suddenly asked incoherently, and Lu Xiaoyang shook his head in confusion.

"Since it's not the case, why should we consider this for you? My family doesn't mind that your legs and feet are not flexible. They give you a chance to work and don't let you go hungry. It's too late for you to be grateful and you still dare to come here to bargain?"

Lu Xiaoyang was unable to refute. When did this woman start to become sharp-tongued?

"But……"

"No but, if you don't want to just leave, we won't stop you. Anyway, we have no shortage of labor here. If you leave, our family can save six corns a day."

After saying that, He Jiuniang turned around to hold Mrs. Sun's hand, put on a friendly smile and comforted her: "Mom, don't break your body because of irrelevant popularity."

Lu Xiaoyang was so angry that he gritted his teeth, but he couldn't do anything to He Jiuniang.

He Jiuniang wanted to make him see the current situation clearly. It was he who couldn't live without the Lu family, not the Lu family who couldn't live without him. If he tried to commit suicide again, he would be kicked out by the Lu family at any time.

You know, he can live together with those boys now only because he can save two steamed buns for them every day. It is also because of the steamed buns that they are willing to take him in. Once the Lu family doesn't want him, then None of the boys would be willing to take him in again.

After thinking about these things, Lu Xiaoyang continued to work in disgrace, thinking that when his legs and feet became better, he must go to the town to see if there was any other work, otherwise he would never get ahead in his life.

"Pooh!"

Mrs. Sun spat and went back with He Jiuniang and the others. Brother Zhang Song also went to wash the feathers and wash out more before dinner.

In the next few days, the female family members of the family were all making clothes in the thatched shed. The clothes of Mrs. Sun and Old Man Lu were the first to be made, because they were winter clothes made of two layers of fabric and stuffed with thick feathers. , not to mention how warm you are when you put it on.

"Not to mention, these clothes are really easy to wear!"

Sun and Old Man Lu immediately tried it on, unable to hide the smiles on their faces.

"This dress is light and fluttery, and it's also so warm. It's really good!"

"The key is that it doesn't stink at all, but it still smells delicious!"

The old couple praised each other, making Boss Lu and others a little jealous.

They also really want to try out how comfortable these clothes are, but unfortunately they haven't finished them yet.

"Speaking of this taste, it's all thanks to my third brother and sister!"

Yu said with a smile, "Originally, it smelled no matter how I washed it, but she bought a fragrant powder and sprinkled it on the dried feathers. It not only deodorized but also added fragrance! What a good thing!" "

He Jiuniang immediately said proudly: "Of course, this fragrant powder is not easy to get, and the dosage is small. I encountered it occasionally. I made an agreement with the person who sells this fragrant powder. From now on, the fragrant powder will only be sold to me, and others will You can’t buy it!”

"There are such good things!" Sun's eyes lit up, "But isn't this thing expensive?"

He Jiuniang nodded: "Yes, but if we use these clothes and sell them, we will still make a profit, don't worry!"

"Okay, then I'll leave the powder matter to you. Since it's rare, try to reveal as little as possible. The fewer people who know about it, the better."

Mrs. Sun directly helped He Jiuniang to cover up, and no one had any objections.

He Jiuniang smiled so hard that her eyes narrowed, why is Ms. Sun so good?
