When Zhou Cuihua heard this, she trotted back and went directly to Liu Pan'er's house. "Dear Yuan Qing's family, those people you hired are actually sleeping and not working in the fields. They are too lazy. You are young, so you can't be fooled by them."

Fooled."

Liu Pan'er smiled and said, "Auntie, it's not that they are lazy, it's me who makes them sleep. If you wake up so early in the morning and take a nap at noon, you will be more energetic in the afternoon and won't be tired because of fatigue. Think about it again, let's finish the meal by ourselves

, I need to take a break. I feel tired and sleepy at noon, and I want to take a nap. The same goes for hiring others to work. Just because you spend money to work, you can't treat them as human beings!"

Zhou Cuihua was stunned for a moment, then smiled, "Looking at it this way, what you said makes sense. After lunch, I want to relax at home for a while. If I am energetic in the afternoon, I will naturally have the strength to work."

"Yes, Auntie, I don't care about the time at noon. However, I still have to thank Auntie for thinking about me." Liu Pan'er thanked her and accepted Zhou Cuihua's kindness.

Zhou Cuihua smiled and said, "From the Yuan Qing family, just don't think I'm nosy."

Liu Pan'er pursed her lips and said: "Auntie, am I, Liu Pan'er, the kind of person who doesn't know what is good or bad? We young people have to have elders watching over us to live our lives. Li Yuanqing is not at home, are my father-in-law and mother-in-law with me?

Same, it's not reliable at all. I relied on you and the village chief uncle along the way. I'm not omnipotent. I'm very grateful that my aunt can remind me when I don't expect it."

When Zhou Cuihua heard this, she felt relieved and went home happily.

The food at home is a big bowl of steamed eggs more than what is given to the hired workers.

Adults and children in the family all like to eat tender steamed eggs.

It is far away from Baisha Town. It is impossible to go to the town to buy meat every day, and it is impossible to hunt prey every day, so Liu Pan'er went to the town and bought twenty hens and two roosters.

I used to wake up naturally every morning.

Now that there are roosters, after the rooster crows, it is the time for them to get up. Whether it is studying or working, getting up early is more efficient.

Twelve hens, Li Xiaobao and Li Nan are responsible for feeding, and Li Rong is responsible for cleaning. They can collect more than a dozen eggs every day. In the morning, everyone eats white water eggs, and at lunch, smooth and delicious steamed eggs often appear on the table.

This is the favorite of Li Nan and Li Xiaobao.

Li Xiaobao once wanted to hatch quail eggs, but it turned out that his whim was out of the blue. Those quail eggs all smelled bad, which shocked Li Xiaobao. Now he watches hens laying eggs and hens hatching eggs all day long.

Meat cannot be eaten every day, but eggs should be eaten every day.

Even though they are very tired from working now, Liu Pan'er and her children not only have not lost weight, but have gained some fat on their faces and have become stronger.

The older daughter and niece have slimmer bodies, and Li Xiaobao and Li Nan have also grown taller. Li Dabao has grown the most obviously, and is now as tall as Liu Paner's chin.

It is estimated that Li Dabao will be taller than her in a year or two.

Liu Pan'er was happy in her heart, and she was even more convinced that she couldn't make a fool of herself when it comes to food.

After dinner, everyone slept quietly on the bamboo bed.

The current hourglass cannot tell time automatically, so Liu Paner found a few alarm clocks in the space. Fortunately, they are the kind that can be used without batteries.

Hearing the alarm clock ringing in the space, Liu Paner got up.

Tell Mrs. Liu to drive the ox cart to pull the rice half an hour later.

Li Dabao followed his mother, Liu Pan'er, to the fields. When they arrived at the bamboo shed, Boss Zheng was already awake and sharpening his sickle.

"Brother Zheng, please feel free to sleep at noon from now on. When it's time, I'll ask my son Dabao to come and call you." Liu Pan'er explained that although Brother Zheng fell asleep at noon today, he didn't sleep well. He was probably worried that he overslept.

Boss Zheng was startled, smiled, and nodded, "Thank you, boss. Eat well at noon and sleep well. We will definitely work hard in the afternoon."

People's hearts are made of flesh, and they are honest and down-to-earth. With the convenience given by their boss, they have to work harder.

"Please." Liu Pan'er smiled and walked away, "Let's cut off the rice ears first. When all the rice ears are cut, we can then cut the rice straw together to prevent the fields from drying out and making it difficult to cultivate."

Boss Zheng nodded, "That's what my boss said."

They will do whatever the boss arranges.

By hiring eight people, the children don't have to work in the fields.

Li Dabao insisted that there were eight strong men working in the fields for his family, and it was not suitable to leave only his mother and aunt. He was not strong enough to keep up with the adults and the speed was slow, so he would work slowly.

At the end of the day, Liu Pan'er, together with Mrs. Liu, and the strong men hired today, had cut two and a half acres of rice ears. In addition, they also cut off all the rice ears that had been cut into rice yesterday.

According to visual inspection, the rice ears in the field will be cut in another three days.

In the morning, the rice ears had dried out a lot after being exposed to the sun for a day. In the afternoon, Li Fang and Li Li hit the rice ears with hammers.

The full grains of rice fell off, and by the time Liu Pan'er came back, the ears of rice that had been transported back to her home had all turned into rice.

It can be seen that the three sisters are not idle even when they are at home.

Not only do you have to cook, you also have to work.

When the work was over, Liu Paner decided to reward each person with two new clothes and a piece of silver jewelry.

For dinner, Mrs. Liu made rolled noodles. She took a pot and placed it directly on the stove that was built next to Boss Zheng's bamboo shed, and cooked the noodles here.

Li Dabao brought a bucket and said, "Uncle Zheng, if you cook half a catty of noodles for each person, it will be more delicious. Otherwise, if we cook it at home, the noodles will be lumpy and not delicious. There will also be half a bowl of soy sauce and half a bowl of noodles."

Cucumber salad,”

Boss Zheng thanked him, "We can cook noodles when we go out to work. Thank you very much."

Li Dabao nodded, "After eating, go to the river to the east. That's where the men in the village bathe. Don't go anywhere else. It might be dangerous."

"Okay!" Mr. Zheng laughed, feeling that his employer had arranged everything well.

They also learned that the men in the host family were capable of fighting outside. Liu's husband was separated on the way to escape, and it was not easy for the two of them to live a good life with their two daughters.

Boss Zheng's wife is a widow. He understands the suffering of widows very well, so they especially admire this pair of sisters-in-law.

After Li Dabao left, Mr. Zheng started to cook the noodles. Each person had a big bowl of fried noodles. He poured the fried noodles over the noodles and it was fragrant. He also added a piece of crispy cold cucumber. It tasted great!

Zheng Laoer said in a low voice: "If I could have such a meal, I would be happy to do this kind of work every day."

"Me too, the most important thing is that I still have thirty cents of wages." Zheng Laosan sighed, there is no such delicious food at home.

Others also agreed and found a good job.

Boss Zheng thought for a while and replied: "This village is a new one, and the accent is different from our local one, but it is definitely not simple. Don't look down on outsiders. In addition, the man from Mrs. Liu's family is not at home, and the family is half-grown."

My children can’t do heavy work. If we work hard, maybe they can find us again next year.”
