Splendid peasant girl busy farming

Chapter 11439

The small second room opposite the Luo family.

Cao Bamei, the eldest daughter Xiuxiu, and the second daughter Xiuhongniang all gathered here. Xiuxiu was the cook and Cao Bamei sat at the stove.

Xiuhong brought a small stool and sat next to Cao Bamei, doing her needlework in the warm light of the stove.

The needlework in her hands is to make shoe soles, one pair after another. The stitches are very dense, and the shoe soles made by her hands are very solid. When they are made into shoes and worn on the feet, they are also very wear-resistant and practical. Other people's cloth shoes can only be worn for two years at most, but the shoes made by her can be worn for three years!

Xiao Sanzi brought Yongxiao with him. The uncle and nephew, both wearing open-crotch pants of the same style and pattern, squatted face to face at the kitchen door and played house games. They picked up the dirt on the ground with their two little hands and put it on the small tiles beside them. The food was being cooked in full swing in the kitchen, and the two of them at the kitchen door were also playing house games with great interest.

Cao Bamei glanced at the kitchen door, gave them a few instructions, then turned her gaze back to the kitchen, looked at the two daughters in front of her, and felt relieved.

It feels so good to have sons, daughters and nephews, and the family is prosperous.

Although my daughter and Li Wei have divorced, which is the only flaw, things have come to this point and we have to eat and live our lives.

Moreover, it has been more than a year since the divorce, and everyone has gradually become accustomed to it. Although it is a divorce, there is one more Yongxiao in the family. He is a boy and will be the daughter's future support!

"Xiu, when you come back this time, did your father really let you stay at home for three days?" Cao Bamei stuffed a handful of firewood into the stove and asked again.

Originally, Xiu Xiu worked as a handyman in a restaurant in town, and was paid monthly.

Didn’t something happen in the restaurant today? Xu Qiaohong hit her head against the well, and blood splattered three feet away!

Although no one was killed, the incident still alarmed neighbors on the nearby streets and some customers who happened to be eating in the restaurant.

Yongjin was the owner of a restaurant. When such an unlucky thing happened, he planned to temporarily close the restaurant for three days and invite a few people to the well in the backyard of the restaurant to exorcise the bad luck.

Over at the stove, Xiu Xiu, who was cooking, heard Cao Bamei's question and said without even raising her head, "How could it be fake if it's not real? The restaurant won't be open for three days, and I'm just sitting there doing nothing. I might as well go home and take a look around.

I thought, I can take advantage of these three days to help my mother take care of the vegetable garden, and when we have some free time, we can go to the woods to collect some pine needles!"

As soon as Xiu Xiu finished her words, Xiu Hong stopped sewing. She turned her head to look at Cao Bamei, who was holding a fire poker beside her and was also stunned.

The mother and daughter looked at each other. Xiuhong turned her head away, raised her eyebrows, and looked at Xiuxiu who was standing there waving a spatula. She said half-jokingly, "Sister, are you sure? You are not making up stories for me and mother, are you?"

Cao Bamei gently patted Xiuhong's arm and whispered, "Girl, don't say that about your elder sister. No matter what, it's great that your sister has this kind heart!"

Xiuhong seemed to have thought of something, she smiled and nodded gently: "Yeah, I take back what I said just now, hehe."

No matter it is a pie in the sky or not, as long as my sister is willing to draw this pie, it is pretty good.

You should know that in the past year, my sister's condition after the divorce was very bad. She was decadent and lazy from body to soul. Even in the first three months after the divorce, my sister locked herself in the house every day, unkempt, and didn't clean the house. Even after giving birth to Yongxiao, she was still in a daze and had no interest in anything.

It was after Yongxiao was half a year old that his sister's condition gradually improved. As Yongxiao grew up, he became more and more lovely and brought more and more joy to his sister. Only then did his sister cheer up little by little.

However, she only cared about the affairs in the house where she and Yongxiao lived. Her sister didn't touch the yard, such as growing vegetables, fetching water, chopping wood, and gathering pine needles. Xiuhong was very dissatisfied at first, thinking that her sister was lazy, and she complained to her mother Cao Bamei privately that her sister was not as good as before.

Because of the divorce and the breakdown of her relationship with her ex-brother-in-law Li Wei, she brought her lazy and decadent state back to her mother. She was already a mother, but she didn't even take care of the housework. It was outrageous...

But her mother Cao Bamei counselled Xiuhong and told her that it was not because her sister was lazy and no longer liked to work, but because, in the past three years, many of the jobs were taken up by Li Wei...

Li Wei was like two completely different people before and after marriage.

It’s not that my sister is too lazy to do those housework, but if she does those chores, it will probably trigger her memories, and the bad things that she has suppressed with great difficulty will be awakened again...

Now, my sister actually took the initiative to ask to do those housework. Even if it is just empty talk, at least it is a sign of improvement. It means that my sister has gradually come out of the shadow of divorce and can live like a normal person.

Xiuhong breathed a sigh of relief, feeling as if a heavy burden had been lifted from her shoulders.

When she looked at her mother, Cao Bamei, she found that she had already thrown away the fire stick. She covered her mouth with her hands, and her exposed face was flushed with excitement. She looked at her sister who was sitting on the stove. The fire from the stove reflected her mother's face, and tears were flashing in her eyes.

Xiuhong was also moved, and wrinkled her nose hard, and said to Xiuxiu: "Sister, our mother was so happy to hear what you said that she wanted to cry, you better not say half of it and then fail to do it, otherwise her happiness would be in vain!"

The spatula in Xiuxiu's hand suddenly hit the edge of the pot, making a crisp sound.

She turned her head to look at Cao Bamei, but Cao Bamei had already lowered her hands and was patting Xiuhong angrily, "Second girl, what nonsense are you talking about? You are adding burden to your sister!"

Xiuhong remained unmoved and continued to look at Xiuxiu.

Xiu Xiu looked at them for two seconds and then quickly left.

She lowered her eyes, staring at the food in the pot, biting her lips, her face turning red and then pale. She was unnaturally silent, her body motionless.

On the stove side, Cao Bamei and Xiuhong were worried again when they saw Xiuxiu like this.

This time, Cao Bamei really glared at Xiuhong beside her in annoyance.

Xiuhong's face was also full of anxiety and regret, and she wondered if her previous two jokes had really touched her sister again.

Oh, if I had known this would happen, I shouldn’t have been so happy. Trouble comes from the mouth, I deserve a spanking!

Just as Xiu Xiu picked up the sole of her shoe and was about to secretly hit herself on the mouth a few times, suddenly, her voice came from the stove.

"Mom, sister, don't worry, I have let it go and thought it through."

She shed tears and murmured, "Let's get a divorce. Before I met Li Wei, I lived such a good life. I managed my home and the outside world in an orderly manner."

"Without him, I am still myself. Even if I don't remarry, I can still live my life alone and raise Yongxiao!"
