The pastoral concubine of space

Chapter 23 Dissatisfied?hold on!

Among the twenty or so villagers invited, Xiao Yunchu only knew a few. For example, Zhao Chuan, who went up the mountain together to help Taihu last time, his family has several brothers. His father is in good health and has no shortage of labor, so he is a brother. With the hard work of saving up the dowry for marrying a wife, it happened that Zhao Chuan came here this time to earn a little money.

In addition, Zhang Chengye also came. There was only one old woman and him in the Zhang family. They were also orphans and widows. The conditions were poor. Zhang Chengye was honest and quick at work, and the village chief was willing to give him the opportunity to make money.

However, the village head was clearly close to the water, but he didn't let the eldest son Liu Dajiang not come, because the family didn't have so much labor and couldn't find anyone, but the eldest daughter-in-law came to help cook and boil water. It's Zhao Chuan's mother, Aunt Zhao.

Aunt Zhao is good at cooking. Usually, anyone in the village will invite her to cook.

In addition to supervising the work every day, Xiao Yunchu would also help the village head's daughter-in-law, Wang Shi, and Aunt Zhao to boil some tea and send it to the villagers who helped the workers. Zichen and Zixi were too young to help, so she sent them to the village head's house. Play with the grandchildren of the village chief.

Although the two little guys are full of curiosity about her 'secret base', they can't see the sky and let them in, right? People outside should feel strange if they can't see anyone. Besides, children are all 3 minutes hot, The excitement is over, and there is no one in the space, except for some modern items that often surprise them, but because it is inconvenient to take them out, they can only hold them in their hearts, so it is better to make friends with friends outside.

For the first two days, they were quite unhappy, and when the fun was over, Xiao Yunchu didn't know they would come back unless he went to find them, which made her really dumbfounded.

Seeing the two little guys becoming more and more lively and cheerful, Xiao Yunchu had nothing to be unhappy about. The only thing that worried him was that he was always dirty when he came home every evening.

In fact, it is normal for a child to get dirty clothes after spending a day outside. There are ready-made washing machines and solar generators in the space, which are fully automatic. She can wash and dry them in minutes without doing anything.

But now behind the thatched hut, a group of people are busy working every day, there are so many people with mixed eyes, such unscientific things can't be done at all, so I can only work hard to have good things that can't be used, and I am with Wang and Aunt Zhao who I have recently become familiar with When my hands are free, I go to the river to wash my hands!

Every day by the river, there are many women from the village who wash and wash. No, after Xiao Yunchu went with him, it is inevitable to listen to them gossip and miscellaneous things that are not interesting at all, especially those who talk the most. about her family.

The main sticking point is the high wages. Those who were excluded by the village chief and failed to get quotas, or whose families were not able to spare manpower to help, inevitably felt bad when they heard about the wages, and secretly envied other people who could make money. At the same time, she complained that when she first made the news, she only said ten pennies.

If I had known that the price difference was so big, except for the fact that the labor force at home is particularly insufficient, it would only take a month to squeeze in, and the time can still be squeezed out!
In the past few days, Xiao Yunchu has heard some women with pantothenic acid accusing her wrongly, which is really annoying.

It's the same old routine again today, Xiao Yunchu wanted to stuff Zichen's dirty socks into their mouths, why can't they just stop and wash the clothes?Where is all this nonsense?

After quickly washing the clothes, Xiao Yunchu picked up the basin, said hello to Aunt Zhao who hadn't finished washing, and walked away quickly. He decided that tomorrow he would only come to fetch water for a show, and then wash in the yard. , whoever loves by the river will come, she is afraid that if she comes a few times, she will not be able to hold back her temper.

As soon as Xiao Yunchu left, the women who gathered to wash clothes by the river not only didn't stop talking, but talked more vigorously.

One of the women, who was very thin and only looked like 26, curled her lips and said disdainfully: "What kind of attitude is she? I dare say that after making some money, she has a higher vision, and she doesn't look down on us village women. , and leave without saying hello?"

"More than that, you haven't seen that she has been busy building a new house, no, after making money, she doesn't come to the river to catch fish and exchange it with the village. After all, she doesn't like the vegetables that the villagers trade with her. Coarse grains, last time she went to the market to buy a big bag of fine grains, but gold is expensive." The face of another young daughter-in-law was full of jealousy that couldn't be concealed.

"I saw that she sent people to the town to buy a lot of meat. The food for those who work in her family is good. There is meat every day. Tsk, I don't know how to save some money."

"I think she'll spend all her money when the house is built. Let's see how she can be extravagant." Several people chattered without any scruples, but Aunt Zhao next to her couldn't stand it. He threw the wet clothes in his hand on the stone and scolded in a low voice: "It's almost done, it's not over yet!"

The women were startled, and then they remembered that there was still Aunt Zhao who was helping Xiao Yunchu's house.

Aunt Zhao looked at them with a straight face, "What's wrong with Xiaoyun making money and building a big house? If any of you make money, why don't you continue to eat bran and swallow vegetables and tighten your belt? That's called Be silly! My family is busy from morning to night every day, Xiaoyun is considerate of the uncles in the village, it is her generosity to give them something good to eat!"

"The family is so busy. She wasn't a fish catcher in the first place. Wouldn't she be successful if she didn't catch fish? If she really left all the things at home just to satisfy those of you who don't necessarily appreciate the benefits, get two fish." , At that time, do you still want to call her stupid behind her back, and think that she can pretend to be a rich person by spending money to hire someone?"

The others were blushed by what she said, and looked like they had been poked in the foot. The very thin woman retorted in a low voice unwillingly, "We didn't say that..."

"That's what you think in your heart when you say that, don't you think I don't know what you are thinking! It's nothing more than watching her live a prosperous life and getting jealous. You don't like her. Whatever she does is wrong in your eyes , to put it bluntly, it’s not that there’s something wrong with Xiaoyun, it’s that your own hearts are biased!” After all, he didn’t want to be with these people who affect people’s moods, so he grabbed his clothes and threw them back into the basin, turned his head and left .

A few people looked at me and I looked at you. They were so angry and guilty after being scolded that they lost the mood to continue discussing. They just muttered subconsciously, "Isn't it just talking casually, and what you do is so serious."

This is not over yet, there are even more speechless sayings in the village.

"You said that you pay fifteen Wen a day. No one in the village has ever paid such a high salary. What is there to be dissatisfied with? Some people say that you earn so much money, and it is contemptuous to pay this little salary. "Liu Yinghua slammed down the table forcefully, hating iron and steel, and her tone was actually apologetic towards Xiao Yunchu.

As the wife of the village head, Liu Yinghua is not good at taking one more of Xiao Yunchu's family's help quota, as if deliberately taking advantage of Xiao Yunchu, but she will still come to help for free every now and then, and talk to her by the way, no, I brought it up when I came here today Rumors circulating in the village these two days.

To be honest, Xiao Yunchu didn't feel angry, but rather amused, especially after learning that many people believed it and had some opinions on her.

I knew that the ancients, especially those in remote and small places, had a lot of ignorance and ignorance, but it’s not to such a degree that they can’t even use their brains, right?

"Don't be angry, it's not a big deal." Xiao Yunchu very calmly poured a cup of tea for Liu Yinghua to make her feel better.

Liu Yinghua gulped down the tea, wiped her mouth, and blamed with staring eyes: "It's not a big deal? If you let them continue talking nonsense, your reputation will be ruined! You are just too soft-tempered!"

Xiao Yunchu smiled, she has a soft temper?Don't be funny, this aunt probably forgot how she warned Zhao Ermazi before.

"This matter should be easy to deal with. You might as well ask the village head to help me pass a message to these uncles who are helping at home. If anyone has any objections to the wages I give, I will not force it. I have settled so far. If I can’t find it in this village, I’ll look for it in other villages. No matter how bad it is, there must be some people in the town who are willing to do it. Zhang’s workers have a wide network, so it’s easy to recruit a few people. As for other irrelevant people..."

Xiao Yunchu's eyes turned cold, "It doesn't matter how much our family pays for recruiting people. Do they need to worry about salty carrots? Unconvinced? Heh, hold on!"

Seeing her resolute attitude, Liu Yinghua was dumbfounded.
