The wild vegetables at home can be dried and eaten in winter, but now we can eat those freshly dug from the mountains.

The family didn't doubt it, they just asked Ni'er not to work so hard.

As I walked, I was thinking that we had invited the master and Zhang the ceramics in advance today, but there had not been a formal housewarming ceremony yet.

They had already found someone to do it with. Tomorrow is a good day. They don't like eating with a group of people because they will inevitably be asked questions and taken to see a doctor. So they just chose today.

If we wait until tomorrow to invite others and leave the master and his family for last, they will definitely feel disrespected.

I estimate that I will invite guests for three consecutive days starting from tomorrow. They are all people who have received their help in the past and with whom I have a good relationship. I have not thought of inviting people from the village to join in the fun.

Firstly, we can't afford to invite so many people, and secondly, grandma must be feeling uncomfortable. Although she can't get up, it would be ugly if the eldest and second uncles, who are rich and powerful, come and cause trouble.

These days, Dad has hired a lot of people to help with cooking, chores, and cleaning, because he is afraid that Mom will get anxious and angry. Although there is no need for her to intervene, just watching or thinking about it makes her feel like there is something on her mind. It will be fine after this period of time.

There's nothing you can do about it; it's easy to worry too much during pregnancy. I'll go home and make some calming tea for my mother to put her mind at ease.

While the third brother's family was treating people to dinner, the eldest brother took a hoe and went to the fields. If he didn't go to do some work, the second brother would scold him to death behind his back.

I've been sneezing and having itchy ears from time to time recently. Without a doubt, it must be the second child. Otherwise, who else would care about me like this?

I was thinking that after finishing my work I would just come back with my second brother, otherwise it would be lonely on the road with no one to talk to. But then I saw the second brother coming towards me at a snail's pace.

He was caught wandering around instead of working properly. Let's see if he has anything to say. Has he been slacking off these days while I was away and no one was supervising him?

Thinking of this, he walked towards the second brother with a hoe in his hand. Fortunately, there were no people passing by nearby, otherwise they would have thought that someone was going to die.

The second child looked left and right, put his hands behind his back, listened leisurely to the birds singing in the trees, and admired the wild flowers on the roadside.

In fact, I had already seen the boss' figure and knew why he was so impatient, but I didn't want to pay any attention to him at all. I wanted to be quiet for a while.

My eldest brother would probably be furious to see how calm I was. It was his fault that he installed the new door in his room. It was right for him to be angry. I shouldn't be the only one suffering.

As expected, the eldest brother was furious, his eyes were erected, and he was dissatisfied with himself for walking too slowly, so he simply ran as fast as he could and appeared in front of the second brother in a flash.

The second brother thought he could relax for a while but he didn't expect the eldest brother to be so angry. Seeing the face twisted in extreme anger, he felt very comfortable.

A little bit of trick can make him furious, but he still pretends to be innocent and caring. I wonder if my brother will be mad at him.

"What's wrong? You can run so fast. You don't have to rush to work. The ground can't run away."

The boss took a few deep breaths and was finally able to speak. He put down the hoe he was carrying, stood on the ground, pointed at the other party, and spoke in a bad tone, and his voice was much louder than usual.

"Second brother, you are being lazy again. What did you promise last time? It seems that all the work in the fields is mine."

"You only eat and don't work every day, and you've become lazy. Although we divided the family property and marked out the land, I always took your share when I worked."

"You've worked so hard these past few days, but you're still the same as before. You've forgotten everything you promised me. How could I have a brother like you?"

The guilt I felt for being lazy in the mountains a few days ago disappeared, and I even regretted why I worked so hard to look for wood.

After walking around several hills, my legs were sore, and I couldn't lift my arms the next day after chopping wood.

It was good for him to be here enjoying the scenery. My previous suspicions were right. He was really not doing his job properly. The more I thought about it, the angrier I became. I really wanted to hit him with a hoe.

After all, he is my biological brother, so I could only think about it. My hands holding the hoe shook again and again, and I tried hard to suppress the evil fire.

I must tell my mother when I get back and let her scold him so that he will learn his lesson. Also, if there is no harvest, don't blame me.

When the second brother saw that his eldest brother seemed to want to pick up the hoe, he suddenly became a little timid.

I wanted to see him get angry again, but he has actually reached the point where he wants to hit me. I had better say something nice to prevent things from escalating to a more serious level.

"Brother~"

"Don't call me big brother. I'm not your big brother. Do we know each other well?"

The eldest brother rolled his eyes at his second brother in disgust and turned his head away, afraid that if he looked at him any longer he would vomit out of nausea.

The second brother thought that he must not let his eldest brother work while he was angry. If he damaged the crops, it would be a small problem. But if he disagreed to open the door to him, it would be a big problem.

If my brother hits me with a hoe again, he will get angry and sometimes he will not care about anything. It is better to deal with it carefully.

"I'm working hard. If you don't believe me, go to the field and see for yourself."

The second brother pointed in the direction of the field and said confidently.

"What?" He couldn't believe what he heard, and narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he suspected that there was something wrong with his ears.

"I said I did my job well."

The boss was stunned for a moment. He actually didn't hear it wrong. He was actually working seriously. Did he blame him wrongly?

We have to go and see to know. Maybe he is afraid of making up stories. He stared at the second brother with half belief and half doubt, but he didn't seem to be lying.

The anger just now subsided a little, and I vaguely felt that the second brother seemed to reveal a sense of pride. It should be because he saw that he had succeeded in his anxious and angry look. The anger that had just subsided a little rose up again.

The second brother saw that his eldest brother's face was gradually turning red, and thought that something was wrong, but he had not said anything wrong just now. It might be that he was too proud and was seen through.

No, I have to quickly turn the tables and not let Big Brother have the intention of taking action, nor can I let him bear a grudge and wait for an opportunity to retaliate in the future.

The second brother's mouth suddenly shrunk, his brows drooped, and his voice sounded a little aggrieved, "Brother, I didn't say anything just now, but you scolded me without knowing right or wrong."

"I told you to go and have a look. After you've seen it, we can talk about whether or not to be angry. Don't get me wrong. It's not worth it to get angry and hurt yourself."

"I came back so early because I have finished weeding my field. I helped you with the work during the few days you went up the mountain. I thought you were not going to the fields today, so I only tended my own field."

The eldest brother felt a little guilty for being led astray by the second brother. Yes, why was he so impatient just now and didn’t he find out the situation first?

My second brother was doing the work of two people before, so it’s understandable that he went home early today.
