The Female Officer Became a Farmer After Getting Reborn

   Chapter 8 Planning

   The ox cart was much faster, and it took less than a quarter of an hour to arrive at Li Yu's door.

Butcher He helped move the things down, pointed to the yard about ten feet to the west of Li Yu's house and said, "Xiaoyu, that's my house, and there's another girl in my house about your age, come and play with her. !"

  Li Yu replied with a smile, "Okay, thank you Uncle He."

   Butcher He smiled heartily, "What are the neighbors doing so politely?"

  Li Qing heard the voice at the door and ran out, "Sister, you're back! You bought so many things?"

  Li Yu smiled and said, "I was too lazy to run, so I bought everything I thought of." The siblings were busy moving things into the yard.

   Li Yu saw that Chen Yaohui and a few people were helping to repair the roof and courtyard walls in the yard, and Mrs. Li had already gone home.

  Li Mei took the cotton from Li Yu's hand, "Yu'er, did you buy a mosquito net? There are a lot of mosquitoes at night."

   "I bought them all." Li Yu handed the cotton and cloth to Li Mei, "Auntie, I'll go wash the pots and pans and leave them to you."

Li Mei looked at Li Yu's neat appearance and nodded with relief, "You put it in the house, I bought a stone of rice and two stones of millet and came back, and Aunt Chen also gave me some vegetables, and there is more money you gave. , I went to the craftsman's house to buy a few rice mats and put them on the ground to make quilts, and I could also sleep on them."

"Okay, you can figure it out!" Li Yu moved the things into the stove, took the pot off the back basket, took the wooden basin and the bucket to the well to fetch water, and soaked the pig's lungs and oil in the water. Take the iron pot to the stove.

Seeing that Li Yu was going to the stove with the pot, Liu Changmin hurriedly brought some yellow mud in, and smiled gently, "Little fish, leave the iron pot to my uncle to install, if the pot is not installed properly, smoke will come out. "

   Li Yu glanced at the honest man and smiled, "Okay, I'm sorry uncle."

   "Uncle is incapable of causing you to suffer. I'm sorry for the entrustment of your siblings and your parents." After Liu Changmin said with a blushing face, he went to work quickly.

Seeing his self-blame, Li Yu didn't know how to tell this honest man. He turned around and went to the yard to wash the pig's lungs and oil. He took the kitchen knife and cutting board to the stove, and saw that the pot had been installed. There is also a circle of yellow mud along the bottom.

Li Qing came back from the outside with a bundle of firewood on his back, and after handing a small bundle of dry firewood to Li Yu, he looked at Li Yu and asked, "Sister, where are our rice fields? The seedling fields are flooded."

   "Yes! It's about to release water. The two fields on the other side of the ditch at the entrance are ours. Come and see Sister Huo Huo."

  Li Yu walked quickly outside the courtyard and saw Liu Changmin pouring water in the paddy field. Li Yu turned back to the house and said to Li Qing, "Aqing, my uncle is already in the field, why don't you go and learn from it?"

   "Oh!" Li Qing added two pieces of firewood and went to the stove.

  Li Yu tore off two pieces of oil skin and pressed it with a spatula, spread the oil evenly in the hot iron pot, waited for the iron pot to fully absorb the oil, let it cool, then cleaned it and started to boil the oil.

  Li Yu saw the dishes that Li Mei brought back on the small table, including shallots, coriander, a large winter melon, a bundle of **** moss, radishes, eggplants, green beans, cowpeas and peppers.

  Li Yu put the pig's alveoli into the water after thinking for a while, carried the stove utensils he bought to the well to wash it, and started cooking.

  Li Yu planned to cook a cowpea soup by steaming rice, stir fry a rotten green bean, fry a pork with green pepper and salt, and stir-fry a **** moss. After thinking about it, he got busy.

After Li Yu finished the meal, the people who repaired the roof had already left, and only Liu Changmin and Chen Yaohui were still plastering the courtyard walls with yellow mud. Li Yu shouted at them, "Uncle Chen, uncle, the rice is ready. Now, come and eat first."

  Chen Yaohui shoveled a shovel of yellow mud on the wall, looked back at Li Yu and said loudly: "That's it, Uncle helps you paste it and go back to eat."

  Liu Changmin smiled cheerfully, "Brother Yaohui, the fish is ready, you can eat some here."

   "Yeah! Uncle, just eat some!" Li Yu looked at Chen Yaohui and said.

  Chen Yaohui smiled cheerfully after hearing this: "Okay, I'm welcome, try the fish dishes if they are delicious."

  Li Yu went to the house and called Li Mei and Li Qing. Several people brought the table and stool under the eaves. Li Mei looked at the yard after cleaning up and sighed.

  Chen Yaohui wiped his hands with a towel, and replied with a smile, "Yes! No matter how good a house is, someone must live in it, and it won't be easily damaged if it gets popular."

   Li Yu put the dishes on the table and smiled politely, "Uncle, aunt, uncle, you have worked hard today."

   Li Mei looked at Li Yu strangely and said with a smile: "You kid, why are you being polite from your own family?"

  Liu Changmin smiled honestly, "Eat, eat, look at how well Yu'er's dishes are cooked!"

"Okay, let's not be polite. I'll start eating first." Chen Yaohui picked up the bowl, took a chopstick and put the fried pork with green pepper and salt in his mouth and chewed it a few times. After swallowing it, he gave a thumbs up and praised: "Fish The stir-fried vegetables are good."

   "Uncle Chen, my sister's cooking is the best." Li Qing looked at Li Mei with a smile.

  Li Mei looked at Li Qinghuang's thin face with a distressed expression, "It's delicious and you are still so thin."

   "The Zhang family didn't give us enough to eat, and at night I was so hungry that I screamed." Li Qing looked at Li Mei aggrieved

   "Don't be wronged! You can eat whatever you want at home in the future." Li Mei put a chopstick of meat in Li Qing's bowl and comforted Li Qing softly.

  Here, Zhang Defa returned to Qingshan County, Chen Zhaodi hurried up to help lead the cow to the cowshed and tied it up, Zhang Defa unloaded the ox cart and went back to the house without saying a word, lying on the bed to rest.

Seeing Zhang Defa's gloomy appearance, Chen Zhaodi didn't dare to ask, and went to Zhang Guixiang's room lightly. Seeing Zhang Guixiang lying on the bed, she sighed secretly: Guixiang seems to be a little spoiled, but a woman has a lifetime It's only when you're a girl in your parents' family that you're most comfortable. Who will spoil you when you marry someone? After serving the old, you have to serve the younger, and there is no free time.

  Chen Zhaodi sighed and shook his head, picked up the dirty clothes on the ground and went to the well.

  Zhang Defa lay on the bed and thought of the money for a while, and thought to himself: After paying back the money, even the money to buy the goods is gone. I don't know how much dowry Mr. Zhu's daughter wants? Her mother's fault, Li Yu's **** broke off the marriage honestly, and ran back to the village to embarrass herself in front of so many people. No, she had to find a way to get the money back.

Zhang De was so angry that he rolled over from the bed and sat up. He walked to the yard and saw Chen Zhaodi washing clothes by the well. He asked with a sullen face, "Where's Guixiang? Why don't you let her wash the clothes? Will you be a mother? The girl is so old. If you don't teach her how to do housework, will you help wash when you get married?"

  Chen Zhaodi thought to himself: When you get angry outside, take me out when you come back. But he replied with a small mouth: "I didn't see Guixiang's face swollen like that, I was afraid that she would come out and be seen by the people next door!"

   "Forget it, forget it," Zhang Defa waved impatiently, "I remember you mentioned that your cousin also fled here, right?"

  Chen Zhaodi glanced at Zhang Defa, lowered her head and rubbed the clothes in the basin vigorously, and replied displeasedly, "Since you told me last time, I haven't interacted with her."

  Zhang Defa recalled, "I remember that her son Chungchang had a pretty face and looked like our Guisheng, but I don't know if he married a daughter-in-law."

  Chen Guixiang thought of Qi Chunsheng and spit in disgust, "Bah! How can her son compare to our Guisheng? People in their teens come here to eat, drink, prostitute, and gamble. Why do you think of him?"

Zhang Defa looked at Chen Zhaodi, told her everything that happened in Xishan Village, and said angrily: "After returning the money to that bitch, we even lost the money to buy the goods, isn't that girl heartbroken to your life! Let him pretend to be a noble..."

  Chen Zhaodi looked at Zhang Defa suspiciously, "Is this okay?"

   Zhang De grinned, "If it doesn't work, we won't suffer! You tell him that the job is done and give him twenty taels of silver."

   "Okay, I'll go find him when I'm done drying my clothes."

   Zhang Defa felt a pain in his heart when he thought of those white flowers, "You should hurry up! Don't let the **** spend all the money by then."

   "Can't I go right now?" Zhang Defa watched Chen Zhaodi leave the yard, as if seeing Li Yu crying bitterly, suddenly felt that he couldn't fall asleep even after being mentally awake, and went out to the grocery store.
