Chapter 1010 The lazy and evil sister-in-law of a wealthy peasant girl (6)
The more she thought about it, the more worried she became. Cui said with a trembling heart: "How about you stop going up the mountain before your elder brother comes back?"
"It's okay, mother, I just need to avoid her." Cui Qiaoqiao said disapprovingly, "Ms. Xu is very lazy. Even if she goes up the mountain to grab food, she won't get up very early. I just need to come back before she goes up the mountain."
Mrs. Cui heard that this was indeed the case. The woman was so lazy that she often slept until three o'clock in the morning before getting up. At this time, all the people who went to work in the fields came back from the fields to have lunch.
"Mom, little brother, eat quickly! I'll pick it up tomorrow after eating."
Mrs. Cui was so amused that she couldn't help but smile: "You kid! You're like those pheasants and hares kissing you so much that they are vying to bump into you."
Cui Jikang burped and said with a smile: "This shows that my little sister is loved by God."
"You can't say this nonsense."
Cui Qiaoqiao glanced at the younger brother and said so, but she felt very happy in her heart.
If she hadn't been favored by God, how could she have lived a new life? And become a lucky child?
In this life, she must live a wonderful life and live a long life!
…
The next day, just after dawn, Xu Yin woke up from the sound of birdsong.
After washing up, I drank a bowl of millet and barley porridge to nourish the stomach and remove dampness, put on long pants and long sleeves, sprayed on mosquito repellent, and went up the mountain when ready.
She has a heavy task today - she plans to cut down some trees to strengthen the thatched house.
If there is any bamboo, chop it back and go back to weave bamboo mats, bamboo curtains, and bamboo baskets for carrying things, and make your shelter as safe and comfortable as possible as soon as possible.
The end of the village is at the foot of Nanshan Mountain. Walk straight for fifty meters and turn north to reach the mountain entrance. It is very convenient to go up the mountain.
To the south is the low-lying depression of Dawa Village. Over time, a wild lake and pond have been formed, surrounded by reeds.
Because of this, there are almost no people in this area. They are afraid of wild beasts coming down from the mountains to attack. If you live close, you will be the first to bear the brunt.
Xu Yin actually thinks that this location is quite good, with mountains on the back and a lake on the back, with a photo in front and a back in the back. It is a great treasure in Feng Shui.
She admired the countryside scenery in the late spring morning all the way, and went up the mountain carrying the broken backpack she had received from her family.
First they cut down the trees, then piled them together, pulled out a clump of soft vines, and braided a rope that was stronger than hemp rope to tie the trees up so they could be easily transported down the mountain.
After finishing this work, she sat down to rest for a while, drank a few sips of Dandelion Light Bamboo Leaf Tea, which strengthens the spleen and removes dampness, to moisten her throat, and then had her second breakfast.
The previous meal was purely to moisten the stomach, and she couldn't eat much so early in the morning.
Now is the time to eat normally.
She ate a shrimp tamales, a cup of cherry and blueberry berries, and drank a cup of soy milk.
After eating and drinking, the sky was getting brighter. She took advantage of the morning light to pick dew-covered mushrooms, fungus, and a few plump, white and tender spring bamboo shoots in the forest.
It wasn't until the sound of rustling footsteps was heard at the entrance of the mountain, and the basket on the back was full, that the search stopped. The basket was carried on the back, the net bag made of vines and straw was carried in the left hand, and the large bundle of wood was dragged slowly with the right hand.
Slowly going down the mountain.
After walking for a while, I met Cui Qiaoqiao unexpectedly.
Two people: "..."
Xu Yin was relatively calm, knowing that her sister-in-law often ran to the mountains recently, and with the blessing of koi luck, it was like pretending to be a dog's nose, and she could find a lot of good things. If it were her, she would do the same thing.
But Cui Qiaoqiao was extremely surprised.
She didn't expect that the day after they separated, she would meet the evil and lazy sister-in-law on the mountain.
Has this person changed his gender? He is still snoring loudly at this time.
She stared at Xu Yin warily, and when they met, she even changed the hatchet in her hand.
Xu Yin: "..."
With your small body, if I really want to do something to you, would it be useful to hold a hatchet in another hand?
But she won't do anything. The other party is the reborn heroine with the luck of Koi. Does she think that her life is too long when she goes against the heroine with the luck of Koi?
The two passed by each other calmly, one going down the mountain and the other going up the mountain.
Seeing that the distance between them was getting longer and longer, Cui Qiaoqiao slowly let out a breath, and almost fell to the ground with her small body.
She was so nervous that her heart was in her throat just now. She was worried that Mr. Xu would take advantage of the fact that no one was around to do something dirty to her. With her current small body, she really couldn't resist.
It seems that I have to get up earlier in the future to avoid running into her again.
By the way, Mrs. Xu took the wrong medicine today? Has she become so diligent after the separation?
Then I thought about it, maybe the old house was too dilapidated. There must be a lot of snakes and rats in the house. I was so scared that I couldn't sleep, so I went up so early, right?
Cui Qiaoqiao thought she had guessed it right, so she stopped thinking about it and continued to go up the mountain to make money.
In that compartment, Xu Yin wiped away her sweat on the way down the mountain and thought about losing weight as soon as possible.
This body is too much of a hindrance, her walking is not brisk at all, and it also prevents her from exerting her permanent divine power.
That being said, several village women who came to the foot of the mountain to dig weeds and pick mushrooms with baskets on their backs saw her dragging a bundle of wood that was taller than a person and walking back easily, and their eyes were filled with shock.
Stared out.
Darling! Meng Jin’s wife is so strong! How could she drag such a big bundle of wood down the mountain at once?
"By the way, isn't he quite diligent? He's not as lazy as Mr. Cui said!" Someone looked at Xu Yin's back and muttered in a low voice.
"How credible can it be for a mother-in-law to criticize her daughter-in-law?" A young daughter-in-law who was suffering under her mother-in-law curled her lips and said.
"I heard that the family was separated not because she was lazy, but because she was so good at eating. She had almost eaten up the Cui family's remaining food within three months of her marriage, and Aunt Qiuhua couldn't do anything about it."
"It's not her fault that she can eat even though she's so strong!"
"Yes, my cow can eat it, but he is the main labor force in the family. We can't let the cows work and not let the cows eat grass at the same time!"
Everyone was talking about the truth about the separation of the Cui family.
Xu Yin didn't go out after arriving home. In the morning, she strengthened the house and dried the thatch, and in the afternoon, she laid the roof and weaved bamboo curtains.
Make the curtains first.
The window is a solid window supported by wooden slats. If you close it during the day, the room will be dark and stuffy. If you open it, there will be no obstruction, so hang up the braided curtains first.
Then came the door curtain, partition curtain, and finally the bamboo mat on the bed.
After all these are compiled, we can then assemble the household items.
Although she is not in a hurry, she is quick with her hands and knits every day when she has free time. Many new bamboo knitted products have been added to her home one after another——
The big dustpan on the ground in the yard is drying the mushrooms, fungus, and dried bamboo shoots picked on the mountain;
There are rows of baskets lined up under the eaves, with herbs arranged in categories to dry;
Lifting the door curtain and walking into the house, there was a pile of backpacks of different sizes stacked in the corner like matryoshka dolls;
There is an extra bowl for leftover rice on the stove;
On the newly made log dining table, there is a shallow bowl with a plate of fresh wild fruits;
On the old tree stump used as a bedside table in the bedroom, a hollowed-out bamboo vase contained a broken teacup and a few sprigs of azalea.
