Escape in the Year of Disaster: She cheated after dressing up as a peasant mother-in-law

Chapter 150 Collective digging of ditches

Dashan carried a basket on his back and climbed up from the ditch with great difficulty.

Zhao Heng grew up in the county magistrate's house and was well-dressed and well-educated. He had never done such menial work. After digging twice with the shovel, he complained: "Oh, I didn't expect that the soil here is so hard that even the shovel can't dig it." , No, I want to take a rest."

Dashan came over: "Let me tell you, you can turn around now and see if anyone else is taking a break. Even children of a few years old are helping to dig. How can you, the son of a county magistrate, have the nerve to take the lead in taking a break?"

Zhao Heng thought about it. Every one of these little kids in this village insisted on digging ditches. How could he, the son of a county magistrate, have the nerve to take the lead in taking a break?
So, he wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Okay, I have to insist on what I said to you, otherwise, wouldn't I, the son of the county magistrate, be gossiped about?"

"It doesn't matter if you gossip. The key is that someone will talk about it in front of the county magistrate later. Will the magistrate lose his face?"

"Yes, I want to save this face for my father!" Zhao Heng said, taking the shovel and digging hard.

Ruyan and Sanwang were in a group. There were big beads of sweat on Ruyan's forehead. When did her young hands do such heavy work? Sanwang took a look and gently used his sleeves to Ruyan wiped away the beads of sweat: "How about you come and rest while I dig for a while."

Ruyan glanced at Sanwang's basket and said with a blushing face: "But as you said, the fine sand is very heavy. I can't even carry it anymore. Forget it, no one has rested, and I don't want to rest either." .”

Next to them are Dashan and Zhang. Dashan has to check the quality of the canals and dig them at the same time. Zhang can still cook at home, but she still doesn't have much energy to do such menial work.

Dashan glanced at Mrs. Zhang disdainfully: "Look at you, besides being able to chop vegetables and cook, what else can you do, really!"

Following closely behind were Qiu Dong and Jin Xia, but Qiu Dong said: "Brother Dashan, be patient with my sister-in-law. Isn't it my sister-in-law who does all the work at home? Besides, it's hard for me to dig in such hard soil."

Zhang said with a smile: "It's nothing, it's just that I haven't held a shovel for a long time, and my hands have blisters."

Dashan snatched the shovel from her hand and said, "Go and carry the sand!"

Jin Xia smiled and said, "Then my sister-in-law and I will go carry the sand."

Seeing Jin Xia was about to leave, Qiu Dong hurriedly took Jin Xia's hand: "Jin Xia, be careful, carry it less, and don't press it."

When Dashan heard this, he thought of what he had just said to Mr. Zhang, and he couldn't help but feel guilty.

While digging, Qiudong said, "Brother, be gentler to your sister-in-law. As for women, you have to coax her. The more you coax her, the better she will treat you. On the contrary, she will change!"

At noon, Li Zheng prepared some dry food and brought it over, with Mr. Jiao following closely behind.

"Qiudong, Jinxia, ​​come and eat. Did mom boil the eggs for you?"

Li Zheng clapped his hands, glanced at the sun and said, "Okay, it's noon, everyone, let's take a rest and have something to eat, and then we'll get started!"

After Li Zheng finished speaking, everyone put down their work and came to their respective sites to eat something casually. Because of the tight time, they did not go home for lunch.

Liang Shuyan went home and prepared some warm steamed buns, dug out some green onions, burned some and brought them over.

Because there were many people in Liang Shuyan's home, she put the pot on a donkey cart and pulled it over. She set up the pot next to the ditch and simmered and drank at the same time.I don’t know why, but Mr. Su thought this porridge was particularly delicious. While drinking the porridge, he said: "Da Shan Niang, your skills are really impressive. You can even cook this simple porridge." My soul is gone, I can’t hold on anymore after drinking this.”

Ruyan filled a bowl and handed it to Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Jin, and then gave another bowl to Liang Shuyan.

Liang Shuyan didn't drink it herself, but when she saw Aunt Liu, she started to shout: "Her aunt, come here, have you tried the porridge I cooked?"

Aunt Liu made dry pancakes and pickles. As soon as she heard that there was porridge, she hurried over.

"Would you like some of the dry biscuits I made?"

Liang Shuyan shook her head: "No need, I have some hot steamed buns right here."

Erniu and a group of people from the martial arts hall sat together and ate with big mouthfuls. Vice General Xiao looked at Mrs. Liu with his eyes.

Mrs. Liu walked up to Er Niu with a bowl of porridge and whispered: "Er Niu, after eating, I will go home. From now on, in the martial arts gym, remember to take good care of yourself, and take care of others with you." Practice martial arts, don’t let down your mother’s expectations.”

Jin Erniu glanced at Mrs. Liu: "What, you are more of a girl than a mother now? Go ahead, go ahead!"

Jin Erniu knew that the reason why Mrs. Liu became like this was because his mother must have said something to Mrs. Liu. Otherwise, how could she suddenly leave the martial arts gym?
Liang Shuyan stood behind Jin Erniu and looked at Jin Erniu's eyes full of murderous intent: "What, you still dare to talk to your wife like this now? Why are you more motherly than mother? What do you mean by two mothers, honestly.”

Liang Shuyan couldn't remember when she became such a girl, and she was actually said like this by Jin Erniu?
Erniu hurriedly swallowed the steamed bun in his mouth, and then said: "Mom, I, I just want to contradict my wife, she is really verbose."

Jin Erniu was a straight-tempered person, and it was revealed without thinking of a word. His big eyes stared at the old woman in front of him, and he took two steps back in fright.

"I'm so long-winded. Okay, from now on I won't be with your mother, and your wife will stay at home and dig ditches. The distance from here to your fat aunt's house will be dug by you. Hurry up!"

Jin Erniu had a mournful face and wished he could slap himself twice. It was because he offended his mother because he couldn't speak, so he was given such an arduous task.

Vice General Xiao said with a smile: "I didn't expect that the owner of our martial arts gym is actually a mother-fearing person. It's okay. You have all of us here to help you. You won't be afraid that you won't be able to finish digging."

"No need, you take your brothers and start digging from the fat aunt's house!"

After simply eating something, everyone started digging ditches.

Liang Shuyan took a shovel and followed Er Niu. In a blink of an eye, Er Niu turned out to be his mother. He didn't dare to rest, so he hurriedly dug hard.

"Zhao Heng, if nothing happens, come over and fill Er Niu with sand!"

Almost everyone in the village started to take action. Only Erniu had the biggest workload. He was digging with his head down. Zhao Heng came over with a basket of sand on his back, picked up the shovel and started spreading it inside.

Zhao dug twice, then threw the shovel aside, sat in the ditch and cried loudly: "Jin Wang, look at my hands!"
