Chapter 254
It snowed for more than a month in the first and second rounds. Although the snow has gradually melted, the land is still hard, and it takes a lot of effort to hoe it.A dozen or so people worked for half a day, but they only finished two acres of land hastily.According to this progress, it will take at least three days to reclaim all twelve acres of land.

Fortunately, there is no rush.Although it is beginning of spring, the temperature has not risen. Even if the land is plowed, it is not suitable for sowing now.So they can plow slowly and carefully.

When it was getting dark, Zhu Guozhong called people to pack up their tools and go home.

A group of people put tools in a tool room, and you looked at me and I looked at you, squeezed together, with eyes flying around, but didn't speak.

Zhu Guozhong looked back at this scene and didn't speak.Lin Bao had already told him in detail before that the villager's price was to only pay for one meal for half a day.Before, Lian Yao and the others really gave them a full meal, far more than the two or two meters standard negotiated.Anyway, this is in the compound, as long as you don't say it, no one else will know.

But the rules are always the rules, and it doesn't matter if you make an exception once, but you can't completely ignore the rules discussed by the villagers.

Otherwise, everyone knows that this family is treated well, and they all scramble to come here, and other people's houses will refuse to go, which will offend people.And even if you are willing to go, you will probably talk about it here. People in the same village do the same job, and you can't take care of it twice, you only take care of it once.

There is no surplus of food in the village, and taking them to work is out of kindness, and any more will be embarrassing for the villagers.

So he can no longer make an exception.Even if he knew that Lian Yao couldn't bear it, he couldn't let her make this exception.

He took off his shoes, knocked off the mud on the soles, put them on the steps, and slowly put on a pair of cotton shoes.

"You wait here, I'll call someone out." Zhu Guozhong said to them.Knowing that one of their companions was left in the house by Lian Yao.

The brilliance in the eyes of these people dimmed, but they didn't say much, they just nodded sullenly.

Zhu Guozhong entered the house, and saw the woman who was left at home by Lian Yao before, sitting on a small stool, with her head bowed down to choose vegetables.Hearing the door knock, he looked up and saw someone coming in, and he stood up nervously.

Looking at the woman's haggard and thin face with high cheekbones, Zhu Guozhong moved his mouth, not knowing what to say.So he nodded and went straight to the kitchen.

In the kitchen, Lian Yao, Aunt Fat and Mother Qi were busy on the stove.A big steamer is steaming with steam and sweet potato aroma.

The fat aunt saw that the person who came in was Zhu Guozhong, so she didn't take it seriously, she pointed to the bench beside her and said, "Sit there for a rest after you've been tired all day. The sweet potato is already ready, let's eat a pad first."

Zhu Guozhong looked at the big steamer with four or five floors, and couldn't help frowning: "You steamed so many sweet potatoes to serve those people as dinner?"

The fat aunt gave him a sideways look, with an expression of "knowingly asking": "If you don't give them, you can eat so much?"

Zhu Guozhong coughed hard, stared at the fat aunt and said, "You don't know the standards that the village negotiated with them? You can only manage one meal after working for half a day."

The fat aunt was not happy when she heard this, and put the steamer she had just brought down on the stove: "They follow their standards, but we can't follow ours? Haven't you seen what those people are? It's pitiful enough, after doing so much work, you don't even get enough food, Zhu, why don't you usually see that you are so hard-hearted?"

Zhu Guozhong was so angry with the fat aunt, he pointed at her and scolded: "Stupid! What do you make others think of Yaoyao by doing this? Oh, you took care of these people with your kindness, so what about the other people who came with them? You let What about the other families who hired them? Not everyone is the same as here, there is enough food for you to work hard. Aren’t you forcing them? People don’t know it’s your idea, and they all blame Yaoyao Don’t you know the mouths of those people in the village? Who knows what they will make up at that time, and finally Yaoyao will be wronged for nothing.”

It was rare to hear Zhu Guozhong speak so harshly. The fat aunt was taken aback for a while, but she understood what he meant. It was this attitude that made her feel a little uncomfortable, so she pointed to the sweet potatoes that had just been removed from the heat and said, "It's all steamed, If you don’t feed them, that’s fine, then these will belong to you, and you will eat them three times a day, when you finish eating, when will it be served on the table.”

Seeing the old couple arguing about this, Lian Yao couldn't sit still.It was my own idea to make dinner for those people, Auntie Fat was helping me, and Uncle Guozhong was doing it for his own good, so I couldn't let them get angry about it.

So she quickly jumped to the middle of the two, sat down on the fat aunt first, and then followed her anger, coaxing: "Fat aunt, don't be angry, it's all my fault, if you talk to Guozhong for this Uncle is angry, I have no face to see Brother Fang Ming."

The fat aunt just couldn't get off the stage for a while, and she wasn't really angry. Hearing what Lian Yao said, she laughed out loud, and nodded her forehead and said, "What does this have to do with you, Brother Fang Ming?"

Lian Yao saw her complexion improved, and said with a smile: "Brother Fang Ming originally had a strict father and loving mother, a good wife and young son, and a beautiful and happy family. But because of me, the relationship between his parents broke down, and he Can you see me, the culprit?"

"My mouth is full of nonsense, and if you talk nonsense, use a needle to sew this mouth." Fat aunt smiled at this beautiful little face with a flattering smile, neither angry nor angry.But she was very happy to see Lian Yao getting more and more lively.

After comforting Aunt Fat, Lianyao rubbed against Zhu Guozhong again: "Uncle Guozhong, I was the one who didn't think carefully. If you want to blame me, you can blame me. It has nothing to do with Aunt Fat. You don't know her yet. Anyway, she will indulge me in whatever I want to do." .”

Seeing that Zhu Guozhong's face was loose, his eyeballs rolled, he sighed deliberately and said: "Oh, I will become more and more self-willed now, except for Fat Aunt, Uncle Guozhong, you usually pamper me a lot, so you can't get rid of it." Relationship. If I do something wrong, Uncle Guozhong has to bear half of the responsibility."

Zhu Guozhong was taken aback by what Lian Yao said.Why did he take the blame for himself for no reason?
Without waiting for his answer, Lian Yao put on an innocent look: "So, now, I cause trouble, Uncle Guo Zhong cleans up the mess, everyone has something to do, perfect!" She said, blinking playfully.

Up to now, Zhu Guozhong didn't know what to say at all, and it took him a long time to say: "That kid Qingfeng can't escape."

Lian Yao immediately acted as if she had realized something, and nodded again and again: "That's right, there is also senior brother. Now I will go to senior brother and see how to help me clean up the mess."

Lian Yao jumped out of the kitchen, leaving Aunt Fat and Zhu Guozhong staring at each other.

Qi's mother was on the sidelines, as if she was watching a play, laughing with joy.When the two of them met Lian Yao, they were driving carts in the river—no way.

"Okay, it's a big deal. At worst, we can eat it ourselves. We can't finish it. Tomorrow, I will fry sweet potato pancakes for Yaoyao as a snack."

On the other side, Lian Yao quickly dragged Wu Qingfeng back to the kitchen.When he entered the door, he shouted: "Brother said it's fine, as long as they don't say anything."

Zhu Guozhong glanced at Wu Qingfeng disapprovingly.Wu Qingfeng quickly explained: "Let them eat in the compound before leaving, no one will know. I will tell them that if anyone tells it, I will not ask them to work in the future. They finally found a place with such good conditions to work. If I am not hungry, I will definitely not disclose this news.”
