Goudan's mother didn't respond, looking like her family was at a huge disadvantage, "It won't take long to chop the bamboo, I'll let my eldest brother do it."
I thought I could save the Qin family some wages.
Su Yan couldn't laugh or cry, so she naturally understood what she meant, "Sister, my family can't do the work, so I'd better call a few more people."
"Don't worry, I can still make back the little money you earn."
Goudanfu smiled and then nodded, "Okay, then I'll call him."
After a while, everyone in the yard was busy. As dusk approached, all the vegetables I prepared were piled on the board.
Qin An sat next to the fire and made bamboo tubes, watching the fire to prevent it from burning.
Su Yan took her wages from the house and gave them to the Wang family, "You have worked hard today, and it will be even harder tomorrow."
Although we only worked for half a day, the daughter-in-law of the Qin family gave us a full day's wages. Father Wang quickly said: "Girl, if you give me more, we will work for half a day."
"You can do more work in half a day than in one day." Su Yan was not exaggerating. The Wang family are all honest and capable people, and they are not lazy at all.
Otherwise, we wouldn’t be able to finish all the vegetables on an acre of land in one afternoon.
She gave them to them respectively, "I won't leave you here to eat. Go home before it gets dark. Be careful on the way."
"Ms. sir, give me three of the keys to the stable."
Hearing this, Qin An took out a key from his arms and gave it to the third brother of the Wang family, saying in a low voice: "Be careful, feed it some dry grass and water when you get home."
The third brother of the Wang family took it and said, "Thank you, boss."
After a group of Wang family members left, Su Yan gave Jiang Caifu his wages, a total of sixty yuan, and explained: "Brother Jiang, I have to trouble you to carve a bamboo tube with my husband."
"become."
Jiang Caifu took it and gave it to his wife, and said, "I'll take some home and make some."
Su Yan nodded, "Call Goudan over and let's eat together."
Thinking about working hard all afternoon, Goudan didn't want her to be too tired, "No, you guys can eat alone, and we will have dinner together after we finish."
Hearing this, Su Yan didn't say anything. After sending them out, she bolted the door to the yard and then hammered her shoulder.
The man next to the fire saw this and motioned for her to come over. After she sat down, he gently squeezed her shoulders and said in a low voice: "Let them see it tomorrow. It's okay to give her more money."
"I didn't do anything." Su Yan leaned in his arms and didn't mind that he was dirty.
She stared at the fire and yawned, then said, "Mr., how about roasting some sweet potatoes for dinner."
"Okay." Qin An kneaded her for a while and got up and went to the house to get a few large sweet potatoes and roast them in the fire.
Su Yan had nothing to do, so she sat beside him and watched him carve bamboo tubes. The man looked rough, and he was not sloppy at all in doing these detailed tasks.
Qin An saw his wife staring at him from the corner of his eye, and the corners of his mouth raised, "Would you like to save a few for spices?"
"Yes." The woman arched her eyebrows.
Suddenly a big hand hugged her in his arms, and a man's breath enveloped her, making her whole body feel warm.
He bowed his waist slightly, still carving the bamboo tube in his hand, and said nothing.
Su Yan was not afraid that he would dirty her clothes, so she leaned on his chest and closed her eyes to rest for a while.
As the night gradually darkened, there was the sound of wind in the yard, the sound of matches crackling, the subtle sound of carving, and still the sound of the woman's shallow breathing as she slept.
After the man finished his work, he looked down at the woman's slightly red cheeks under the firelight. He couldn't help but lowered his head and kissed her, and then held her in his arms and looked at the fire.
When the sweet potatoes were almost ready, he lowered his head and called his wife, "Daughter-in-law, the sweet potatoes are ready."
