Splendid peasant girl busy farming

Chapter 5827
With a smile in her eyes, Yang Ruoqing nodded lightly, "It's good that you understand, although I won't get involved, I can always stand behind you to help you support the situation, you go and negotiate with the Gu family, no matter what they say, you will Don't panic, hold on!"

Watching Ping'er leave with her back straight, Yang Ruoqing was also in a happy mood.

Ping'er didn't go home right away, but changed direction and went to the field to find Zhou Sheng and Bingbing.

"It's not yet noon, why are you here? Did you come to call us for dinner?"

Holding the plow handle in his hand, Zhou Sheng rolled up his trousers to his knees, stood in the paddy field and looked up at Pinger on the field dam.

In front, Bingbing was also standing barefoot in the paddy field, holding a rope in his hand, and one end of the rope passed through the old cow's nostrils.

This old cow was bought by two Zhou Sheng brothers and two cousins ​​from the same family. It has been used for many years. Every year when the farming is busy, the old cow goes from house to house to work. It is Zhou Sheng’s turn these two days .

"The lunch hasn't been cooked yet, I'm here to tell you that someone is coming from our house." Ping'er said.

"Ah? Is there a visitor at home? Where is the visitor from?"

Zhou Sheng was a little surprised. It was a busy time for farming, and relatives and friends would not pick this time even if they wanted to move around.

"You come up first, and I'll tell you more when I come up." Ping'er winked at Zhou Sheng, and then looked around.

There are fields all around, and villagers are working in the fields. If there is any movement in the fields, you can hear it with a slightly louder voice.

What's more, when Ping'er came all the way before, when she passed other people's fields, she had already entered the public's sight.

Seeing Ping'er's look, Zhou Sheng was surprised, and couldn't help but glance at her, noticing that her complexion was not very good.

Zhou Sheng suddenly thought of something, his face changed a little, and he told the Bingbing who was helping him to lead the ox: "I'll go and talk to your Aunt Ping'er, take the old ox over there to eat for a few minutes." Mouth grass, drink a few sips of water and rest."

Bingbing made a 'hmm' sound, took off the plow sheath on the old ox's back and put it aside, and led the old ox to the shore.

The old cow flicked its tail along the field ridge and gnawed on the grass leaves on the roadside, and the soldiers followed suit, with their ears pricked up, catching the conversation between father and stepmother.

I couldn't listen carefully, but I vaguely heard a few words, 'Gu family', 'father and son', 'gift' and so on.

After a while, Zhou Sheng yelled at the soldiers: "I have something to do when I go home. I won't plow the field this morning. I will leave the cow to you and feed it well."

"Ok!"

"Remember, you must let it drink water. It's hot now, and you can't handle it without drinking water."

"Ah."

"I'll have lunch later, I'll call you again, let's go first."

……

In the courtyard of Zhou Sheng's house, the father and son of the Gu family stood awkwardly in the courtyard, in a dilemma.

Gu Zhihua looked around, the yard was full of all kinds of platycodon stalks and wheatgrass, there was no place to settle down, and the sun was so fierce that a nest of chickens had been taken under the only crooked locust tree in the yard.

There was a small patch of shade under the eaves, and he had just stood there for a while before he couldn't bear the smell of the whole row of red peppers and garlic hanging behind him.

"It's too much. It's said that coming to the door is just a customer. Not only did they not invite us in for tea, but they didn't even leave a stool. You are really country people and don't understand etiquette!"

Gu Zhihua took out a white handkerchief, wiped the hot sweat from his forehead, and muttered softly.

Beside him, Gu's father stood there steadily. Although he was hot and sweating profusely, his expression seemed more calm than Gu Zhihua's.

"When is it, are you still worrying about these things?" He gave Gu Zhihua a sideways look, and warned in a deep voice, "Don't forget the purpose of our trip. Whether the Gu family will live comfortably or live on the streets depends on today!"

Gu Zhihua's brows suddenly tightened, his eyes darkened instantly, and the disgust on his face became so emboldened.

Yes, today, he came to make an apology and propose to marry Huahua again.

That's right, it was such a girl from a country family that he didn't want to stay for a moment, he came here today to beg to be his son-in-law, it's ridiculous!

"Father, I'm dying of thirst, and my throat is smoking!" Gu Zhihua said again as his Adam's apple rolled down.

Father Gu glanced at him, "Why do you have so many things to do? Go get water from the carriage!"

"Father, I drank all the water on the way." Gu Zhihua said.

Father Gu said angrily: "Then bear with it, thirsty for a while will not kill you!"

Gu Zhihua tugged at the collar of his neck impatiently, frowning together.

Father Gu sighed and looked around, the main room door behind him was locked, but the kitchen door was unlocked.

"It's really not possible, you go to the kitchen water tank and scoop up some cold water to deal with it!"

"Father, that's cold water, you'll get sick if you drink it..."

"Then just bear with it!"

"Master, why don't I go to the next door and ask for a bowl of tea for the young master?" Old Genbo's son was in charge of driving the carriage. Hearing the words of the Gu family and his son, he asked cautiously.

"Yeah……"

"Don't go!"

"father!"

"master……"

"If I say I'm not allowed to go, I'm not allowed to go, Gu Zhihua, you have to think clearly about your purpose for standing here today!" Father Gu pointed to the bottom of his feet, his face was reddened by the sun: "If you don't want to take a good After that, let's go back, anyway, I have lived half my life, and I have enjoyed what I should enjoy, so it doesn't matter if I die right now."

"You're only 25, and there's still a long way to go. If you're willing to live in the county town, haha, a life that others look down on, let's go back!"

"The first thing I did when I went back was to sell all the servants in the family, because our family couldn't afford to support them, and the big house was also sold. Go back to the three old houses where your grandma used to live. Cooking and laundry belt Let your precious Shuhua do the child's work, and you go out to carry the big bag to earn money to support the family!"

"If you are willing to live like that, then let's go back now!"

Gu's father spoke too excitedly, saliva splashed all over Gu Zhihua's face.

Gu Zhihua froze under the sun, drooping his head, looking like he was about to cry.

"I've provoked someone. This kind of unlucky thing happened to me!" With a dejected expression on his face, he shuffled around and headed towards the kitchen, looking for some water to drink, otherwise he will see his father-in-law later The mother-in-law is gone, and my voice can't say good things to impress them.

Father Gu watched Gu Zhihua's back disappear into the kitchen, and sighed heavily.

If I knew today, why was it in the first place?
When he went to study in Qing'an County, he said that his son was not allowed to take any young people with him, and it would be best to replace them with two older, more stable servants.

But he didn't listen, he insisted on pleasing the eyes, saying that the servant girl looked sloppy.

In the end, I secretly picked up Shuhua, accompanied by a bunch of Yingying and Yanyan, laughing and having fun, how can I study well?

If you can't read well, and haven't made a good person, it's really a crime to fall into this situation!

The sound of hurried footsteps outside the yard interrupted Father Gu's contemplation. He turned around and saw Zhou Sheng rushing into the yard, wearing straw sandals on his bare feet, his trousers rolled up to his knees, and his calves were covered in mud, real mud legs.
