Zhou Bang was angry and anxious at the moment. He was angry that his son was so unsatisfactory that even cutting the rice would hurt his feet.

I was anxious to see if my son's injury was serious. I was relieved when I saw that the tip of the sickle had penetrated and the wound was not very deep.

Then his face was filled with disgust.

"Okay, go back and rest. I think you will never be able to eat like a farmer for the rest of your life."

Zhou Bang sighed for a while. The boys working next to him didn't understand that the prince of their family would inherit the prince's palace in the future. It didn't matter whether he could do farm work or not. I had seen a prince who knew how to do farm work. They really can't understand it.

Zhou Yu quite understands her father's thoughts. Her father has lived a life with his face facing the loess and his back turned to the sky since he was born. Although the status of the family has changed now, his father still believes that food is the most important thing for the people.

As long as they master the skills of farming, even if their family becomes ordinary people again in the future, they can still make a living by farming.

Just like most craftsmen, they must not lose the job of eating.

Zhou Yan is also very discouraged. He really doesn't want to be lazy. I'm afraid that now that he has said this, only his own family will believe it. Who will believe that he can't even do such a simple job?

He had to lower his head and let people help him get into the bullock cart.

Today is the first day of opening the sickle. Zhou Yu came here to watch the excitement, but she didn't expect to see her brother after watching the excitement.

There was nothing exciting to watch at the moment, and her father wouldn't let her work in the fields, so Zhou Yu and her elder brother took a bullock cart back home.

Yu Zheng was not so lucky. He had a sickle in his hand and cut rice next to Zhou Bang.

Although Yu Zheng had been recovering from his injuries for half a year, for a martial arts student, he was still capable of cutting rice.

While harvesting rice, he could also chat with Zhou Bang.

Seeing the speed with which Yu Zheng worked, Zhou Bang felt comforted in his heart. Although his son was not very good, the son-in-law still worked well.

And over there, Qinglin promised to feed the ducks and clean the duck pen yesterday, so he went to the duck pen early this morning, fed the ducks and cleaned the duck pen, and he was not at all ambiguous about it.

Su Lu and Su Da stood on the side and watched with arms crossed. Su Da couldn't help but use his arm to turn Su Lu.

"Hey, you said he took away our jobs, what else can we do?"

"What are you doing? Go carry rice."

Since someone was feeding the ducks and sweeping the duck pen, the two of them were not at the duck pen. Instead, they went to the field and loaded the bundles of rice cut by the boys onto the oxcart, and then someone took it to the drying yard to dry it.

Nowadays, every household in the village has an open space in front of their yard. For those with few fields or few laborers at home, the rice harvested that day is not taken to the drying field, but directly taken home to dry.

Everyone in the village was grateful, and everyone intentionally gave up the drying field to the Zhou family, who had the most fields in the village.

When Zhou Yu returned home, she applied the wound medicine on her brother, then wrapped a circle of white cloth around her legs. Finally, Zhou Yu exerted strength.

"Ouch! Sister, please be gentler."

"I thought you didn't know it hurt."

"Why don't you know it hurts? I'm a human being too."

"I knew it hurt, so I stabbed myself in the leg with the knife."

At this moment, Zhou Yan really said that he really couldn't explain why the knife stabbed his leg at that time.

After a few words of bickering with his eldest brother, Zhou Yu went to the kitchen to see if the sour plum soup they had made before leaving was ready.

When we got to the kitchen, we happened to see two people ladling the sour plum soup from the big pot into the bucket. That was good.

"Girl, when it cools down, we'll take it to the well and hold it there. We'll be able to drink it at noon."

"That's right. What's for lunch today? Do you need my help?"

"No, no, no, girl, go and do your work, it's just the two of us who can keep busy." There are more than twenty people eating at home now, and the two of them are really busy.

Seeing that the two of them didn't need her help, Zhou Yu went to the workshop after coming out of the kitchen.

Every household in the village is busy with farming these days, so Zhou Yu simply stopped the workshop. Now only the rouge workshop is still open.

Most of the people who work in the rouge workshop are young girls, as well as young wives from the village.

These are not the strong labor force of the family. It doesn't matter whether the rice is harvested or not. The big deal is that the family will have to work for a few more days.

As soon as Zhou Yu stepped into the house, the few people who were still chatting while working hurriedly said hello to Zhou Yu.

"County Lord."

"County Lord."

Zhou Yu also nodded in response, which was regarded as saying hello to them.

"You are busy with your business, don't worry about me."

Zhou Yu came to the rouge workshop not once or twice. After hearing this, the big guys moved harder with their hands.

When Xia He saw Zhou Yu coming over, he hurriedly handed over the work he was doing to a girl sitting next to her.

"Just do what I just said."

"Yes, Manager Xia."

"girl."

"You go about your business, I'm just here to hang out."

When Xia He heard Zhou Yu say this, he did not follow Zhou Yu, but went to the corner to get the raw materials.

When Zhou Yu walked up to the girl Xia He taught just now, the girl quickly stood up and saluted Zhou Yu to say hello.

"County Lord."

Those who greeted Zhou Yu just now were all sitting down and moving their hands non-stop, while this girl stood up and saluted Zhou Yu.

Seeing this girl's face, Zhou Yu was somewhat impressed. She was the granddaughter of old man Jin.

"You've been here for so long, are you still used to it?"

"Thanks to the County Lord, I'm very used to it here."

Li Ru came to Jinjia Village with her mother after they divorced. After that, her grandfather changed her surname to Jin, so she is now called Jin Ru.

"Just get used to it, just keep busy."

Jin Ru sat down and quickly did the work at hand.

She has been working in the workshop for more than two months. She does not need to do as much work here as before at home, and she works in the house every day. Her skin has also become whiter, and the calluses on her hands have become It also slowly started to shed its skin.

If she were more generous, Jin Ru could be considered a Xiaojiabiyu. The clothes she was wearing now were not the linen clothes she wore when she first met Zhou Yu, but a dress made of cotton.

Jin Ru thinks Jinjia Village is good everywhere, the place to live is good, the people are good, and the wages for work are high.

She can now get one tael of silver every month, which she could not even imagine in her previous home.

Even in the Li family for a year, she never saw a copper plate.

But there are always shortcomings in people's hearts. She had already thought that Jinjia Village was good enough before, but now looking at Zhou Yu's clothes, Jin Ru felt a sense of inferiority in her heart. She felt that she was always inferior in front of Zhou Yu. It was the way she looked when her grandpa took her there that day, so she could never hold her head up in front of Zhou Yu.
