Chapter 1 The Three Maids of the Bai Family

Bai Xia crossed over.

This wasn't her first time travelling, but it was the most unlucky of all her time travels.

"Damn girl, what time is it, and you haven't gotten up to cut pigweed yet, are you dead asleep?"

"I'm too lazy to be like a pig every day, and I'm still waiting for my old lady to serve you."

"Hurry up and get to work"

The ear-piercing and sharp voice rang in Bai Xia's ears, accompanied by the banging on the door, making her sleepless even when she wanted to sleep.

The people outside are none other than the mother-in-law of her body.

This time she sadly transmigrated into a child bride-in-law, or a child bride-in-law who fled famine and came to this village and was rescued by her current mother-in-law.

Bai Xia quickly got up from the bed, wiped her face, pulled the latch and forcefully opened the door, and came face to face with Lin who was knocking on the door.

Mrs. Lin was knocking on the door vigorously, when the door opened suddenly, and it was hard to hit Bai Xia's forehead directly.

"Die..." Facing Bai Xia's dark eyes, Lin's heart felt inexplicably cold, and the words she was about to curse were stuck in her throat, and she changed her words: "When you get up, hurry up and cut the pig grass, and feed the pigs when you're done. clothes were washed."

After finishing speaking, he turned around and walked away with the hoe in his hand, thinking to himself: Why is this girl's eyes so oozing.

Bai Xia rolled his eyes towards the sky, and took a look at the Li family's house. There were two thatched huts that were slightly wider, and a bamboo fence. A small vegetable field was plowed in the yard, and some vegetables were planted.

The yard was muddy, with mud marks on every foot.

Taken together, it's just one word.

poor.

But there is no way, there are only orphans and widows in this family, and there is no man, so they can't go to other places to work, so they can only live on the little land, isn't it poor?

Bai Xia took the sickle and walked towards the small river outside the village.

It was summer when she came, and the pigweed grew luxuriantly, and the basket was full of cuttings in a short time.

Back home with pigweed, I went up the mountain to pick up some dry firewood, chopped it, boiled the pigweed, fed the pigs, and went to the river to wash the clothes.

As soon as I survived, the whole morning passed.

Bai Xia was not idle either, Lin's in the kitchen had already taken out rice noodles, not much, just half a palm of brown rice, half a palm of a 9-year-old child.

Put a slap of rice into the pot, mix it with some water, and after cooking, you can still see people.

Bai Xia glanced at Lin's house, all the food in this family was locked in her house, between breaking the locks and drinking clean water, Bai Xia chose to break the locks.

The lock wasn't particularly delicate, and it would loosen after two bricks went down.

As soon as she entered the room, Bai Xia's eyes fell on the jar at the end of Lin's bed, she walked up to lift the lid, her eyes froze immediately.

I saw a thin layer of brown rice under the jar, which weighed only a few kilograms, and there was still more than a month before the autumn harvest.

It's no wonder that the Lin family has produced less and less rice in the past two days.

Bai Xia closed the lid and tightened her belt with her hands, hey, who can't eat porridge.

After restoring the lock on the door of Lin's house, Bai Xia went out with a basket on her shoulders, and walked towards the hill at the entrance of the village.

Fortunately, this is summer, and all kinds of wild vegetables are growing well, otherwise, with just that little rice, a person would have starved to death.

After picking up a basket of wild vegetables on the mountain, and looking again, Bai Xia didn't see any trace of the game, so Bai Xia carried the basket back home unwillingly.

Chop the wild vegetables, mix some in the porridge and cook a wild vegetable porridge, and cook some directly and then make them into pancakes and dry them in a pan.

As soon as lunch was ready, Mrs. Lin came back with a hoe.

Bai Xia's cheap husband sent him to a private school in the village to be enlightened. He went there before dawn in the morning and brought dry food when he went out. He didn't come back for lunch, so there were only Bai Xia and Lin Shi at the dinner table.

Lin frowned when she came back. She first glanced at the clothes drying in the yard, and then at the pigs in the pigsty. Seeing that Bai Xia had done all the work she had arranged, she sat down at the dinner table. Down.

Seeing the wild vegetable porridge and wild vegetable pancakes on the table, Mrs. Lin looked at Bai Xia in surprise.

This damn girl's brain has opened up?

She muttered something in a low voice, but they were all on the same table, no matter how low her voice was, Bai Xia could still hear her.

Resisting the urge to roll her eyes, Bai Xia looked at Mrs. Lin, and asked her if we could have dinner?

After all, the Li family now eats one meal a day. Except for her little carrot husband, she and the Lin family only have one meal at noon.

It turns out that Bai Xia cooks as much porridge as the rice given by Mrs. Lin. Occasionally, when Mrs. Lin tells her to pick some wild vegetables and cook them together, she will pick wild vegetables.

To put it simply, it is a person who does what Lin orders and what she does, but if Lin doesn't order, she doesn't know what to do.

Special Muna.

That's why Lin was so surprised when she saw the wild vegetables on the table. After all, she didn't arrange for this dead girl to pick wild vegetables today.

"Move your chopsticks"

Lin picked up the chopsticks, picked up a wild vegetable pancake and ate it.

Bai Xia was already so hungry that she had to rely on her own thoughts before, but as soon as Lin shi spoke, she quickly started eating.

Seeing her reincarnated like a starving ghost, Lin's eyes sank, his mouth opened slightly, and he wanted to swear a few words fragrantly, but suddenly remembered the look in her eyes in the morning, and cursed a few words silently in his heart , to speed up the speed of eating wild vegetable pancakes.

Just eating porridge and wild vegetable cakes, which tasted bland, Bai Xia almost shed tears without being wronged.

Fortunately, she is a strong person and knows that as long as she persists for a month, her golden fingers will be awakened, so she swallowed all the grievances in her heart.

After wearing it so many times, there has never been a time when I was short of food and clothing like this time.

The meal was over in a hurry, and in the afternoon, Mrs. Lin continued to work in the field, while Bai Xia went to pick up some dry firewood under the arrangement of Mrs. Lin, and pulled out the weeds in the vegetable field.

After doing so much work, the sky looks like it will be dark.

Seeing that there was not much water in the water tank in the kitchen, and Mrs. Lin was still working in the field and hadn't come back, Bai Xia had no choice but to take a bucket and go to the village to fetch water.

There is only one well in the entire Lijia Village, which supplies water for the entire village. Except for eating and drinking, the well water is used for other water, and the river water in the small river ditch is used for other water.

And in order not to waste water, things like washing clothes are washed directly by the river, and they are washed in the river water, and there is no need to fetch water to go home. The water in a river can be used many times without wasting it.

Bai Xia also couldn't say what's wrong with this. After all, resources are limited, and Lijia Village's ancestors have come here for generations, so what can she say.

Because there is only one well, and every family draws water from this well, the water level in the well is terribly low at the moment, and at first glance, it is dark and cold, and a cool air rises straight up.
