Wangfu small peasant girl

Chapter 222 Working at Home

Xu Pingqiu didn't refuse either, and nodded with a smile, she likes staying here.

At the dinner table, Mrs. Song kept picking up vegetables for her, Xu Pingqiu was very happy, and felt that Mrs. Song treated her much better than Mrs. Wang, this is like a mother, sister Yue is really lucky.

The food is also delicious. With such a shy personality, she couldn't help but eat a lot.

Xu Ruyue smiled and said, "Eat more, it's such a big pot, I also reserved the Pingwu ones, you can take it back and put it away later, be smart."

"Well, I see."

After eating here and clearing away, Xu Ruyue went to help Xu Pingqiu chop vegetables and cook the fire, and after finishing the meal, Xu Ruyue went back to the maid's room, and the Xu family came back after a while.

"Is the food ready? I'm really starving to death." Zhang's voice was heard as soon as he entered the door. It seemed that he had been really hungry for a long time.

Xu Pingqiu hurriedly came out from the upper room, "It's ready, it's just been put on the table."

The family washed their hands and ate after putting away the farm tools. There were three dishes, one fried pork with lotus root, one fried beans, another fried eggplant, and sweet potato porridge.

This is considered hearty. If Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Wang cook, they can solve the problem with one dish and one big pot.

Holding the bowl, Lin took a few mouthfuls and said, "Qiu'er's cooking skills are better than the two of you. It's delicious. I think Qiu'er will do the cooking from now on. You guys The two of them work in the fields, and Qiu'er is thirteen. In a few years, I will talk about others, so it's not good to follow them all the time to work in the fields. It's good to do the work at home."

As soon as the words came out, Mrs. Zhang immediately quit. The work in this family is nothing more than tidying up the house, sweeping the yard, cooking and so on. Everyone washes their own clothes. How can it compare with outsiders?
Although she complained that she didn't want to cook on weekdays, but she was really asked to choose. She still likes to cook at home without basking in the sun.

"Mother, this can't be done. We are so tired from work, and we want to take a break. How can we just let Pingqiu stay at home? She works very quickly."

"You still have the nerve to say it." Lin's eyes glared, "You are an adult, and your work is not as good as that of a child. Where do you think you put your face?"

Mrs. Zhang shrank her neck, "Mother, I am also thinking about my family. There is so much work."

"If you feel that there is too much work, hurry up and do it more nimbly. Pingwu is still working at such a young age, and he doesn't feel tired at all. Pingwen is eighteen. You are a big guy. Tell him about him When did you help?"

Of course Mrs. Zhang could find an excuse, "Mother, isn't Pingwen doing business? I don't have time."

"No time? I didn't do business before and I didn't see him working. It's not because you are used to it. The second bedroom has two adults and two children. Four of them are helping the family with labor. There are only two of you. You If you talk about gossip, I really want to talk to you."

Hearing this, Xu Linbo hurriedly said, "Yes, sister-in-law, are you being too unreasonable? Pingqiu is also a girl, she is going to marry, how can she work in the fields all the time? Our whole family does it Work, there are only two of you in your family, and I didn’t see you eating less, we haven’t gossiped yet.”

Mrs. Zhang wanted to say something else, but Xu Qiaosheng, who had been silent just now, spoke up, put down the bowl and said, "Your mother and second child are right, if you have any objections to this matter, talk about it."
