There is Room For Abandoned Women In the 1980s

Chapter 605: Win the hall, beat the bad guys, and win the wife in the kitchen

 “Xiao Zheng, do you think your uncle has caused you trouble?”

Mr. Gu glared at his granddaughter to stop her from talking. When he looked at Zheng Dakui, his eyes were pitiful. He finally found some fun, which was more meaningful than staying at home reading and writing and waiting for the family to come back. He seemed to have found the value of life again.

 Being a farmer, I am most close to the land.

“No, it’s just that it’s such a hot day and I’m afraid your body won’t be able to bear it.”

Zheng Dakui grinned. Facing an old man who was very enthusiastic about farm work, he had no way to stop him and could only give instructions.

"It's okay. I'll come here tomorrow wearing a big straw hat and bring my own dry food and water. As long as the village gives me the opportunity to work." After speaking, Mr. Gu looked at Zheng Dakui eagerly, for fear that he would not agree.

　　　Since the old man has brought his words to this point, if Zheng Dakui stops him again, it will look like he is stingy and he has to agree, but the old man is not allowed to bring dry food. He can still afford one meal.

“Okay, as long as you let me come, I can make big pancakes or corn porridge every day.”

　　Seeing that Zheng Dakui agreed, the old man rubbed his hands in excitement.

 Gu Meijiao was about to cry. Her shoes were full of dirt and she was stung to death by walking. She might as well not sit under the roots of a tree and take off her shoes and dump the dirt.

Her beloved little leather shoes! They are all gone, they don’t want to come, ten thousand of them don’t want to come.

Back at Zheng's house, Zheng Xinyue had prepared face wash and boiled rock sugar mung bean water. After washing her hands and drinking a bowl of mung bean water, the old man's eyes widened and he gave Zheng Xinyue a thumbs up.

“Xinyue, it tastes so good, do you have any more? Bring some back to grandpa.”

Mr. Gu wants to give his stubborn daughter-in-law a try. Where can he find a daughter-in-law who can go to the hall, beat up bad guys, and work in the kitchen?

“Okay, I’ve made a lot! I’ve also prepared fresh vegetables, a plump hare, and some wood ear mushrooms for you. You can take them back together later.”

Zheng Xinyue readily agreed. Seeing Gu Meijiao washing her hands with a sad face, she poured her a bowl of mung bean water.

 The water used to boil the mung bean water is the river water in her space. Drinking it will make you feel refreshed and relieve your fatigue.

 As long as she is at home, she will basically cook a pot for her family members to relieve themselves from the heat and improve their health.

 “Thank you, Sister Xinyue.”

Gu Meijiao wiped her hands and took the mung bean water, and thanked her feebly. Her hands could no longer use to pull the beets, and she was shaking while holding the bowl.

 “You must be very tired!”

Zheng Xinyue glanced at her sympathetically, remembering that when she went to weed the field for the first time, when she got home, she wished she could drag the cat by its tail and lie on the kang, unable to sleep.

 “I’m so exhausted, grandpa still wants to come tomorrow.”

 Gu Meiling said in tears. She took a sip of mung bean water and was stunned immediately. Then she picked it up and drank it in one go. The water flowed from the corner of her mouth to her neck. Zheng Xinyue hurriedly wiped it with a towel.

 “Sister Xinyue, I still want to drink.”

Gu Meijiao handed the empty bowl to Zheng Xinyue and looked at her pitifully. She was hot and tired from working in the fields. After drinking a bowl of cold mung bean water, she suddenly felt refreshed and had a sweet taste in her mouth. , smacking her lips as she didn’t drink enough.

 “Drink slowly and save some space in your stomach. I’ve made a lot of delicious food.”

Zheng Xinyue poured her another bowl and reminded her in a low voice.

"smell good!"

Gu Meijiao sniffed sharply at her reminder. The smell of meat was so fragrant that her mouth almost watered down.

“I can’t work anymore, but I feel refreshed by eating. Tell me, today’s young people can’t endure hardship.”

Mr. Gu came out of the east room, glared at his granddaughter, and scolded her in a deep voice. He decided to bring her here tomorrow, and he must wear off her squeamishness.

 “Bang.” The door rang.
