The boss is dressed as cannon fodder

Although the day laborers were demanding money, the work was really good. On the one hand, Mrs. Chen felt at ease because she didn't have to worry about missing the spring plowing. On the other hand, it felt painful to see the money flowing like water, so she simply ran to her eldest son's door to scold him and told him Get your stuff and get out of here.

Little Chen also wanted to scold her, but in order to save money, old Chen did not allow her to rest and asked her to follow him to the fields.

The fields were full of mud, and besides locusts there were other bugs as well. Could she still want her delicate skin? Little Chen is determined to be sick. No matter what, she is determined not to go to the fields anyway. She is born ordinary, so she only wears delicate leather that makes people linger. If she really becomes thicker, her husband will definitely not like it...

Of course, Mrs. Chen, who has become a mature woman, saw that her niece was slacking off and cursed her again.

Little Chen turned a deaf ear. Anyway, she has two sons who are great contributors to the Jiang family... Her natal family is also her mother-in-law's natal family and will not divorce her.

"Didn't my mother-in-law say that Si Niang is good everywhere?" Shun Niang really couldn't understand. In the past, the mother and daughter of the Chen family were not better than mother and daughter, so why did they have trouble just after they separated.

"There will still be trouble in the future." Jiang He said with great certainty. In the past, all the work was done by the big family. Now that the families are separated, the work is either done by the old Chen family or the young Chen family. Of course, it may also be Jiang Hai - but Jiang He dares to use Jiang Hai, a scholar who was invisible, swore that it was absolutely impossible for Jiang Hai to work. Just seeing how he ran away as fast as possible when the family was separated, you can imagine how deeply he hated farm work.

"Either the east wind overwhelms the west wind, or the west wind overpowers the east wind." Shun Niang thought thoughtfully, "Either the mother-in-law or the fourth mother will do the work. Anyway, it is impossible not to work." When it comes to interests, we saw the clues just after the separation.

"I think my mother has a better chance of winning." Jiang He said lightly, "You can tell by my mother's style that she will not suffer."

The house was repaired on the third day, during which Shun Niang was not idle, taking a hoe to clear up wasteland on the hillside.

Old Man Wang is really practical. He completed the fence in just three days, built two rooms that can accommodate people, and even built the kitchen and even the stove. He was really considerate.

"The stove is related to worshiping the Kitchen God, and it requires Feng Shui." Mr. Wang is very proud of his profession. "I check the Feng Shui before building a house, and I specially selected the two houses with the best Feng Shui for you... You can watch the moving day. I’ve given you a good look, it’s going to be suitable for you to move in tomorrow.”

Old Mrs. Jiang was so noisy that he and his apprentices naturally worked overtime to repair the house as quickly as possible.

Jiang He was very grateful. He couldn't stand that damn old woman anymore. They had separated and had no contact with each other for a long time. She even cursed at his door angrily, scolding Shun Niang for not going to the fields to help with work! She also scolded the two Niuniu for being rude and catching bugs to raise chickens. Why did they only feed the five chickens in the big house... She thought her two grandchildren she loved the most were dead. They were such old people and dug up some earthworms to feed them. Even chickens can’t do it? !

Oh, his bad temper! In order to avoid human tragedy, it is better to move as soon as possible.

Jiang He specially gave each person an extra fifteen cents as a thank you gift, and Old Man Wang gave an extra thirty cents. He is a sensible person. Old Man Wang could obviously delay the work for one more day and still get one day's wages, but they insisted on moving the work one day ahead of time, and it was not for his sake.

There was a smile on Old Man Wang's lips. Jiang Dao was a sensible man. Next time someone said he was unfilial, he would really have to speak up for him.

**

Naturally, Jiang He no longer had to bear it when he left today, which made Old Chen mad.

"I, I, I... I just want to teach this guy who doesn't lay eggs a lesson! Big o, you actually protect your wife like this... Even if we separate, I will still be your mother, you unfilial son!"

"Mom..." The drama queen Jiang He came online again, "Do you hate me so much? Our families have been separated, and my legs are still lame. From now on, I can only rely on my mother-in-law to support me. You want to kill my mother-in-law, and that's why Let us, father and daughter, starve to death..." Jiang He's voice was so sad that it made the listeners cry. "My son has become a useless person and Shun Niang still refuses to leave. She is simply the best woman in our country. You can't You want to beat her to death because you are jealous of her virtues that you don’t have..."

Old Chen was shaking with anger, who wanted to beat her to death... No, Dao said that I was jealous of her virtues that I didn't have. Shun Niang was the best woman in Daqi, so she was the worst woman in Daqi?

"Go away, go away! Get all out of my way!" Mrs. Chen was really going crazy, "Jiang Dao, I tell you, you are not allowed to call me mother in the future! And when you see me, you'd better take a detour, mother. Don’t want to see you again!”

Jiang Dao left the Jiang family in the sympathetic eyes of the whole village.

Shun Niang, mother and daughter put all their belongings and Jiang He on a wheelbarrow and headed up the hillside. Mother and daughter were both skinny and skinny. Little Er Niu had bulging veins on her hands and tried her best to push her father away, but he refused to let go. Old Chen, who was extremely rich in comparison, was still cursing.

The villagers were sympathetic and angry at the same time. A tiger cannot eat its seeds even if its poison is poisonous. Old Chen is more vicious than a tiger...

Several clan elders were so ashamed that they didn't dare to go out. They were very upset that they had been bribed by Jiang Ero before.

You should try to help Jiang Dao in the future. He is lame and can't work. No matter how capable Shun Niang is, she is just a woman and a child. She can't watch Jiang Dao's family starve to death.

They were not miserable at all. Er Niu was holding the candy in her mouth and felt that pushing her father up the mountain was not tiring at all.

The eldest girl didn't feel tired either. She was away from the old Chen family who always beat and scolded them, and the eldest son and the second son who bullied them. Even if her father didn't feed her candy, she felt happy.

The house protected by the wall on the hillside stands out among the colorful mountain flowers.

"This is our home." Da Niu spoke out the thoughts of mother and daughter, "It's so nice..."

"Yes, it's ours. Daddy will take you to eat delicious food and drink spicy drinks in the future!" Jiang He made a bold statement. He had been craving meat for so long since he came to ancient times. He ate the little chicken when he was injured before, and the more he ate, the more he craved it. Later, after Mrs. Chen decided to abandon him, meat was even more out of his reach.

The big girl said very sensibly: "Don't eat meat. I have money to treat Dad's legs."

"You need to treat your legs and eat meat." Jiang He waved his hand, "Wait for Daddy to make money to buy meat for you."

The hills are full of shrubs and low trees. In spring, there are mountain flowers everywhere, and they are colorful at a glance. The old house is surrounded by a stone wall. Jiang He's great-grandfather was worried that there were wolves on the mountain, so most of the house was made of stone. It looks very rough and has a unique flavor.

I didn't expect that I lived in a villa, and it was a villa with wilderness style! Jiang He looked at the green mountains around him, listened to the crisp birdsong, and blew the cool mountain breeze, and felt refreshed.

"Mother doesn't like this stone house. She said it's not grand enough." Jiang He recalled the original owner's memory and said that in fact, such a stone house makes people feel very safe. Old Chen didn't like it probably because the old house was located in a remote location. If she wanted to show off, she had to run a long way, which didn't fit her personality of showing off.

"There is a spring flowing down the mountain, but mother thinks that the spring smells like mud. Wait, I remember it was behind the house? Shun Niang, go and have a look."

Shun Niang went to see it and brought back a bowl of water. "The water is very turbid. It's okay to plant crops and water vegetables, but not to cook."

"That's easy." Jiang He was full of confidence. "We dig a small pond, put fine sand in it, and we can drink it after it settles. We don't have to go down the mountain to fetch water."

Shun Niang decided to go out and dig a pond immediately, so that she wouldn't have to go down the mountain to fetch water in the future. It's hard to fetch water up and down the mountain.

In any case, I have to have a good meal on the first night after moving to a new house. Although there was no meat, there was an egg on the noodles and some delicious side dishes. The family of four had a full stomach and basked in the sunset in the yard.

The two girls clung to their father and told stories, and then fell asleep.

Shunniang laughed and slapped them awake, "Go take a bath!" She was originally a clean person. Although the two daughters looked ragged, their fingernails were clean and there were no lice on their hair, which was incredible for rural children.

***

The house was not newly built, and it was busy during the farming season, so there was no need to invite guests.

Jianghe asked the two girls to send some candies to a few families in the village who got along well with them as a housewarming gift.

Then the Jiang family's eldest house began a new chapter.

Early in the morning, Shunniang went to see the pool dug yesterday. The water filled half of the pool, which was absolutely no problem for irrigating ten or eight acres of land, and it was very clear and could be drunk after boiling.

"Husband, I plan to grow vegetables around the pool, which will be convenient for watering and picking vegetables." Shunniang picked up the hoe excitedly.

"Mom, can the big girl help you?"

"No." Shunniang refused, "Be good, you stay at home with dad."

Shunniang didn't want the big girl to be tired. There was no way to separate the family last year. The big girl was driven to the fields by her mother-in-law at a young age. Now that she is in charge of the family, she will never let her daughter work so hard.

Jiang He patted the big girl's hand, "Be good, the big girl is still young, and she can help mother when she grows up next year." Well, next year, we will achieve a small goal first, and hire a few maids to serve my daughter.

The big girl pouted, "I'm grown up, I don't want mother to be too tired."

"My wife has worked hard, or we don't open up wasteland to plant crops?" Jiang He was also very distressed, secretly blaming Manager Li for being too slow.

"No!" Shunniang refused. If her husband hadn't asked her to buy more seeds, she would have wanted to plant all the mountains. "In fact, planting peanuts and soybeans is not tiring at all. I can do it alone." Compared with planting rice, peanuts and soybeans do not require fine cultivation, which is much easier. Two acres of land is nothing. She can handle a few more acres by herself.

Otherwise, she secretly bought some more seeds and planted a few more acres of land?

As the sun set, Shunniang looked at the fruits of her labor today with satisfaction. Sure enough, two acres of land was not enough for her to plant.

"Mom, Dad called you home for dinner." Erniu ran over.

Shunniang looked up and saw the smoke rising from the house not far away. "Didn't we agree that I would go home to cook? Is it your sister who cooks? She is still young, and has never cooked before. Isn't this a waste of food?"

Erniu smiled and said, "Dad said, my sister will cook! Mom, let me tell you, I ate it secretly, and my sister's steamed egg is delicious."

As soon as she stepped into the house, Shunniang saw the dishes on the table in the middle of the yard.

A bowl of steamed eggs, yellow and tender, green vegetables, and the pickles they often eat these days.

"Try the cooking of the eldest daughter." Jiang He smiled and praised the eldest daughter who came over with a bowl, "Our eldest daughter is amazing. She cooked so well for the first time."

"And me." The second daughter quickly praised herself, "The second daughter helped to light the fire."

"Yes, this is the first meal that the three of us have cooked together."

The eldest daughter was a little proud and a little shy, "Dad told me how to cook it, Mom, you want to try it?"

The dish really tasted good, and Shunniang praised her two daughters.
