After dressing up as a stepmother, I transformed the whole family into working in the fields

Qin Yao raised her eyes and looked at the four Dalang brothers and sisters, asking them with concern what they had done at home today and whether they had completed their morning exercises and homework.

The key point is whether Liu Ji was lazy or did bad things when she was not at home.

Liu Ji didn't expect that she still had the strength to ask these things. The fingers on Qin Yao's shoulders trembled slightly.

He winked at his son and daughter quickly.

Dalang didn't even look at him, and said truthfully: Auntie, dad was out looking at the field water all day today. He didn't hoe the grass in the vegetable field, and he didn't repair the water damage. Today's three meals were cooked by Erlang and I. .”

After all, it is a wooden waterwheel. Sometimes some aquatic plants and debris are carried into the river water, and it needs to be cleaned up in two or three days.

If it's stuck, it needs to be repaired so that it won't be used when someone wants to use it.

Now the water mill can be regarded as a stable income. It can pay back the capital in five months. After the capital is paid back, everything is profitable.

Now there are only three months left to recover the capital, and the existing customer base must be well maintained.

Therefore, whenever there was a problem with the water tanker, Qin Yao always went to solve it immediately. Seeing that the villagers could not waste any time, they came over again and again.

But today Liu Ji actually dared to stop the water mill. Is he tired of living?

How long has it been stopped? Qin Yao asked with a frown.

Dalang said it stopped at noon and has been until now.

The massaging hand on the shoulder was removed at some point, and he and the others retreated to the door of the main room.

Liu Ji, where are you going?! Qin Yao locked his sharp eyes and asked.

Liu Ji swallowed hard and said with a flattering smile, Madam, I'm going to repair the water tanker.

Qin Yao's murderous gaze calmed down, and she took the repair tools and ran out as if he was running away.

Without Liu Ji being an eyesore in the room, Qin Yao's expression softened and she told the four Dalang brothers and sisters:

Your father is like that toad on the roadside. He will move only if you poke him. If you want him to get better, you must always push him. In the future, if you see him not moving, you must remind him.

I'm busy working in the town to earn money these days. Don't help him with what he has to do at home. If he doesn't listen, tell me later and I'll take care of him.

The four brothers and sisters looked at each other happily and responded in unison!

With Qin Yao's support, the four siblings are confident. Now let's see if Dad dares to hurt them.

It was getting late and she would have to get up early tomorrow. Qin Yao took the test on today's homework for the four siblings and then went back to the room to sleep.

Liu Ji returned home at around 11 o'clock in the middle of the night. The grinding sound caused by the turning of the waterwheel could be heard from the river bank at the foot of the mountain. It seemed that the waterwheel had been repaired by him, so Qin Yao felt relieved and fell asleep.

When I woke up at around four o'clock, it was dark outside the window.

Qin Yao dressed neatly and walked out of the room to the main room. A bamboo tube filled with cold boiled water was already placed on the table. A groove was dug out at the top with a knife, and a rope was specially tied around it for easy carrying.

Qin Yao touched the rope groove that was obviously newly dug with her fingers and raised her eyebrows in surprise.

Liu Laosan actually has such a delicate mind?

Of course, it is more likely that he did something wrong because he was afraid that she would settle a score with him and please her.

Flattery!

Qin Yao snorted lowly, hung the bamboo tube filled with water diagonally on her shoulder, walked out of the door quietly, lit a torch and went to work.

I left home at 4:30, traveled for two and a half hours, and arrived at Ding's wife's house on time at 7:00.

As a worker, I will never give my boss a second more beating.

The others were still a few minutes late, because there was no clock accurate to minutes and seconds. People in Sheng had no such thing as being stuck, as long as they were within a certain time period, they were considered on time.

Breakfast was a bowl of millet porridge for each person. When receiving the breakfast, Qin Yao deliberately asked for an extra bowl. The cook who served the rice rolled her eyes and refused to give it to her.

Qin Yao looked at Shunzi and others and sighed softly. She had no choice but to roll up today in order to fill her stomach.

If she only learned skills yesterday, then today Qin Yao has mastered the logging skills. If she wants to roll up, even she will be scared.

At this time, Shunzi, Dabeard and others still knew nothing about it.

Because the number of logs felled was the first yesterday, the bearded man got an extra bun in the morning, which was given to the servants by the young masters and ladies of the Ding family before they finished eating.

Although it is leftover, it still contains meat, and these buns have not been touched yet.

Seeing the bearded man swallowing the buns in two big mouthfuls, Shunzi swallowed enviously, went to the tool room to get the tools, and went up the mountain with Qin Yao.

Today, Shunzi still used a saw, and Qin Yao still held an axe. The tools were familiar and easier to use.

When they arrived at the place, the two separated. Qin Yao walked around in the forest, picked the straightest one, and started working!

The sound of bang bang felling came one after another in the forest, and every two-quarters of an hour, a crash sound of falling could be heard from high up.

Ding Wu heard it several times in succession. At first he thought it was workers gathering together to cut down trees one after another, sitting in the shade and not paying attention.

Until noon, Qin Yao pushed logs down the mountain one by one. Five or six logs passed by at a glance, and Ding Wu stood up.

Qin Yao, did you chop it alone? he asked in surprise.

Qin Yao pushed down the eighth piece of wood, walked down with the ax on her shoulder, nodded, and started to pick up the hatchet in the tool tube and prune the eight pieces of wood.

The movement was very fast, crackling like scraping fish scales. Ding Wu stared at it with wide eyes for half a minute before he came back to his senses.

You chopped eight pieces of wood in one morning? He confirmed again in disbelief.

Qin Yao nodded and after finishing the last branch, the servant of the Ding family came with food. Qin Yao said, I want to eat enough at noon today, okay?

Ding Wukuang nodded, Okay, if you keep going at this speed in the afternoon, I'll give you enough meat buns tomorrow morning!

Sure. Qin Yao smiled, put down her tools, clapped her hands, and waited for the meal to be served.

The servants originally wanted to eat together in the mountains, but in order for Qin Yao to be full, they gave her all the food and would eat later when they returned home.

In the open space full of branches, everyone was so shocked that their jaws almost dropped as they watched Qin Yao eat enough for five people by herself.

The bearded man touched Shunzi with his elbow, Isn't she your sister-in-law? Why are you surprised that you are following us? I just found out today that she can eat so much?

Shunzi nodded, yes, he only knew today that Third Brother and his wife are so good at eating!

Work started in the afternoon, and everyone was stimulated by Qin Yao. They all worked hard, and the bearded man chopped off four of them in one afternoon!

Even Shunzi sawed two logs. Including the one in the morning, a total of three logs were chopped today.

He was very satisfied with his result, after all, he just chopped one off yesterday.

But when she turned around, she saw a pile of eight logs piled in front of Qin Yao. Including the ones from the morning, she had chopped sixteen logs in one day.

Is this still a human being? The bearded man growled unwillingly.

Ding Wu's eyes changed when he looked at Qin Yao, and now he called Mrs. Qin politely.
