When the two came back in the evening, Mao Xiaosui told them about the matter.

They were naturally happy to have a business, but they just wanted to sigh when they thought of having to kill rabbits and wash their skins again.

Mao Xiaosui said, "Business is important, let's hire people to do the work in the fields."

Li Yunshan has no objection.

The purchase of the land has not been finalized yet and I have to be busy with business matters.

Mao Xiaosui herded mules, cut grass and washed rabbit skins as usual.

In the morning, Mao Mingzhu called her again. She went out with a basket on her back. Yang Cui was also beside her, and her face looked much more relaxed recently.

Mao Xiaosui ignored her and said to Mao Mingzhu, "Are you free? Help us gather the beans and wheat."

Before Mao Mingzhu could ask the question, he continued, "We will pay money, two cents per acre, and another hundred copper coins per acre. If I don't have time, I will find someone else."

"Yes." Mao Mingzhu said hurriedly, "We are not in a hurry to plant beans. We will get your beans first." Then she asked, "Are Yunshan and Zhao Hui free?"

She nodded.

Probably because he knew that she didn't want to talk about Mao Mingzhu, he didn't ask in detail. He just said, "You can just call us when the time comes."

She nodded in agreement.

Wheat is harvested earlier than beans, and the wheat stalks are all yellow and green in early July.

When the poles were all yellow and easy to fall into the ground, Mao Xiaosui waited for a few days until most of the poles were yellow before notifying the Wang family to harvest wheat the next day.

Logically speaking, she should not work, but Mao Xiaosui had to keep an eye on her, and it was not appropriate to just stare at her and not work, so she also did some work.

The Wang family was very active after earning money, and the four of them, not including her, cleared an acre of land before dark.

There was no need to build up a pile, they could just pile them up in the yard and Mao Xiaosui let them go back.

She tied the mule, threw some grass and poured some water.

The meal at home has been prepared, and several people are still waiting for her.

Li Yunshan said, "If you feel tired, I can go in the afternoon."

"No need." Mao Xiaosui drank a large bowl of water, and after quenching his thirst, he panted and said, "You have to work again, so I will keep an eye on you. Besides, the rabbit skin is not finished yet, business is important."

After dinner, Mao Xiaosui went to sleep. In the morning, when Gastrodia was bright, Mao Mingzhu called her again at the top of his voice.

Mao Xiaosui wasn't awake at the time, so he sat up immediately after hearing the sound, ran out and called her back, then cooked porridge, washed up, ate, and went out.

On the way, she took two of the eggs she had cooked in the morning. When she was about to eat them, she saw Mao Mingzhu glance at her from time to time. Mao Xiaosui simply gave her the other one.

Mao Mingzhu was not polite, peeled it off and started eating it, and asked her, "Are you awake?"

She said "hmm" and couldn't help but yawned again.

It had been a long time since she had gotten up so early and she was still a little uncomfortable.

He rubbed his face and started working in the fields.

The pull in the morning was pulled back at noon, and the pull in the afternoon had to be done twice, which meant that they had to go to the ground again after squinting for a while at noon.

After finishing the six acres of land quickly and slowly, the Wang family had to work on theirs again.

People have been busy in the venue these days. Mao Xiaosui planned to dig for fungi. When she was passing by the venue, she heard Li Lianxin ask her, "When will your food be harvested? I heard that Yunshan is very busy these days..."

Mao Xiaosui originally wanted to say he was free, but he glanced at Li Lianxin and thought that her home didn't have much land, so he said, "Yunshan has something to do and I can't take care of it. There is no one. Do you have time at home? I can pay to hire you." .”

"Yes." Li Lianxin hurriedly responded.

They had to use their own mules to thresh the grain, and they didn't have much effort, so Mao Xiaosui said, "The money may not be that much, a hundred a day, and it will be done in four days. Then my mules will be able to pull it, so you don't have to work too hard."

"It's done." Li Lianxin said hurriedly, "How about tomorrow?"

"It's all settled." Mao Xiaosui nodded, "You just decide."

After digging the mushrooms and returning home, Li Yunshan and Li Yunshan were still busy. Mao Xiaosui mentioned the matter of taking out the grain. Li Yunshan didn't care who earned the money. Mao Xiaosui could only agree to it if it was not someone he disliked.

He got up earlier to take off food than to go to the field. Hearing the noise, Mao Xiaosui just wanted to get up and take a look at Li Yunshan next to him before he sat up.

He said, "Go to sleep." Then he started to get dressed, and soon the door to the room rang.

Mao Xiaosui originally wanted to sleep, but then he thought again and felt that he had to watch, so he immediately sat up and said, "I'll watch."

"I'll just go and take my place when you wake up."

Mao Xiaosui thought it was okay, so he lay back down again. Soon he heard the voices of Li Yunshan and Zhao Hui talking. After a while, the door of the side room rang again, and it seemed that Zhao Hui had returned to the house again.

Thinking about things, she fell asleep deeply. At dawn, the rooster in the backyard crowed.

Zhao Hui went to the backyard to feed the chickens and rabbits first, and Mao Xiaosui also hurriedly went to the hut and came back to cook.

I scalded the bean noodles into pancakes, scrambled a plate of eggs, and used mushrooms to make egg scallops.

She set the table in the yard, called out to Li Ruyi and Li Ankang in the room, and sat down to eat.

I drank half a bowl of soup and took the uneaten half of the cake out the door.

Li Yunshan was also busy in the venue, and Mao Xiaosui asked him to go back. He stood at the edge and ate the cake. After finishing the meal, he went over to help.

There was very little she could do, and she didn't do much because she paid for it.

When picking up poles at noon, Mao Mingzhu and the others came back, glanced at her and said nothing.

Mao Xiaosui was not stupid, and he quickly understood why.

Zhao Hui came over to replace her after dinner at noon. While she was eating, she casually asked Li Yunshan, "Did Auntie and the others see you when you were hauling wheat to the venue today?"

"I saw it." Li Yunshan asked, "Are you unhappy?"

Mao Xiaosui nodded, "Looking unhappy, it's a bit irritating to me."

She lamented, "Sure enough, you still can't be too nice to one person. Both of them are a little bit embarrassed."

Li Yunshan nodded, stood up and said, "I'm going to take a nap."

Mao Xiaosui agreed. After dinner, he washed the pot and went to replace it with Zhao Hui.

Zhao Hui was helping to separate the wheat kernels and husks when he heard this and said, "Go in and sleep. I slept well today."

After hearing what he said, Mao Xiaosui went home and squinted for a while.

By the time she woke up and went to the venue, she was already finishing her work.

Zhao Hui left first if he was still alive.

Li Lianxin approached her and said, "This Zhao Hui is different from the Zhao family. He is hardworking and capable, but he has no land or house. Otherwise, I would have introduced my niece to her. My niece is also well-behaved and an honest person."

Mao Xiaosui casually replied, "He has a sweetheart."

"Really?" Li Lianxin felt a little pity, "Although you are very kind to him, this is not a problem after all. The girl's family may not be willing to marry their daughter to him and suffer."

Mao Xiaosui laughed. She quite liked Li Lianxin. She had a docile temperament and rarely talked about her gender. She didn't pick troubles and didn't take advantage.

Mao Mingzhu was only angry because she wanted to make money, but Li Lianxin had spoken a lot for her before and helped her during the birth. There had never been any unhappiness between them, especially today. Even if she asked, she couldn't refuse.

As for Mao Mingzhu's dissatisfaction, Mao Xiaosui didn't take it to heart.
