Nongmen Space: Farming lady is not easy to mess with

Chapter 160 I Have Never Been Reasonable

Chapter 160 I Have Never Been Reasonable
The team of construction workers in Nancun has grown again.

There is a small sand pile in the open space next to the big sand pile. A nest is made in the middle, two baskets of cement are poured, and a few loads of water are poured in from the canal brought from the river.

Turn the surrounding sand into the nest, and after mixing evenly, it will be cement mortar.

There was an endless stream of villagers picking small buckets, and everyone who came to wait for the mortar to be loaded took a glance at this bright red figure intentionally or unintentionally.You have to be careful, because it's easy to not hold back your laughter after watching it for a long time.

Holding the shovel in both hands, Si Yao painstakingly shoveled the mortar into the small bucket. His normally cheerful face had never smiled since he came to the construction site.

Glancing at the boots that splattered like fireworks, and the dots of cement marks on the robe, my heart ached so much that I wanted to vomit blood.

Glancing at Jing Chao who was happily moving bricks, he didn't dare to throw the shovel in his hand on the ground.

God knows it's been a while since I saw him, but Master and his old man have developed a new poison!
Without a medicine cabinet, he could only take antidote pills to save his life temporarily, and he also passed out in the room for a day.

The condition for getting the antidote is to stay in the village as a coolie.

Xuemei rubbed her sore shoulders from the burden of the shoulder pole, squatted by the ditch and washed her hands and face.He walked to the big wooden table next to him and took a bowl filled with hot water, squatting on the ground and drinking it slowly.

I haven't done physical work for a long time, but I just picked mortar for two days, and my shoulders are sore.

He pursed his lips and smiled self-deprecatingly. In the past, he used to go up the mountain to cut firewood and go to the field to work with strength, but now his body is much more delicate.

"Second daughter-in-law, shall we discuss something?"

A person squatted down next to her, Xuemei turned her head to look at Jing Chao who was all smiles, and felt that this matter must not be a good one.

Before she could refuse, Jing Chao pointed to Si Yao who was working hard in the distance, "He doesn't look like he's here to work in that suit, and he just ruined that expensive robe. You look…"

Xuemei's eyes widened suddenly, and she quickly waved her hand to interrupt him, "No, no... You should find someone else to do it."

"Hey? Why not, didn't you make me a whole body?"

"That...that's different..." Xuemei lowered her eyes, her face flushed twice.

"Tsk, you're avenging your kindness~" Jing Chao narrowed his eyes and looked at her contemptuously.

"Ah? Where did you say that?" Xuemei was stunned, wondering where did she avenge her?
Jing Chao snorted and snapped his fingers, "Has my second son taught you how to read these days? Did he accompany you to read and explain the book? Did he teach you the medicinal properties of herbs?"

Xuemei nodded, "But..."

"It's nothing." Jing Chao waved his hand loudly.

"Do you know how much it costs to hire a teacher, Mr. Xi? Besides, my second child's medical skills still have some false reputation outside. Wouldn't it be right to get him to teach and make him a pair of cotton clothes!"

Taking a peek at the tangled look on her lower lip, she lowered her head and bit her lower lip, and immediately accentuated her tone, "Shouldn't it be!"

Xuemei lowered her head and nodded slightly.

"Hey, that's right~" Jing Chao thief smiled, got up and walked away contentedly with his hands behind his back.

Xuemei stared at the bowl in her hand with her head down, suddenly felt that something was wrong, she stood up slowly.

Suddenly clearing his mind, he turned around suddenly and found that Jing Chao had disappeared.

Where did she ask Si Yao to teach Mr. Xie?Does it matter if he has a name!
He stomped his feet angrily, why did he get in there!

After dinner, Xuemei washed herself up, resigned herself to the warehouse, took out a large roll of indigo cloth and carried it back to her room.

Reluctantly, he gently opened the door, only to see the person inside with red sleeves blowing in the wind, a folding fan spun a few times in the air and landed firmly in his hand.

He turned around coolly, closed his fan with a snap, and raised his eyebrows, "Why are you here?" Si Yao looked at the person at the door in surprise.

It was still early, and I had nothing to do to play and practice, but I didn't expect her to come.

Usually at night, she would go directly to Huiru's room after dinner, and would come to him the next morning.

Xuemei pursed her lips slightly, stepped into the room and complained softly, "It's not because of your master." After putting away the cloth, she went to the sundries shelf and tiptoed to hook the small basket on it.

"Huh? What's wrong with my master?" Si Yao stepped forward to help, but seeing that she touched it, he didn't mind his own business.

Xuemei took down the top small basket, turned around and bumped into his chest, "Oh." Unsteady, the small basket fell out of her hand naturally after being hit.

Si Yao stretched out his hand to grab it, caught it firmly and handed it to her, "Why are you so stupid?"

Xuemei was so annoyed, she took it and glared at him, "You are so unreasonable, if you didn't stand behind me, how could you bump into me!"

Si Yao grinned, slapped the palm of his hand while holding the folding fan, and shrugged nonchalantly, "I've always been unreasonable."

Xuemei's fingers gripped the basket tightly, took a deep breath, turned around and put it on the table, took the thick thread and powder stone, "Stand still."

Si Yao glanced at her straightening movement, "You want to tailor a dress for me?" His eyes drifted to the roll of cloth on the table, "Could it be made of that cloth?"

Seeing this familiar color reminded him of the inexplicable cotton-padded jacket and trousers on his master, he swallowed hard, and looked at her with eyes full of hope, hoping to hear no from her mouth.

"Well, the cotton spun in the village is best dyed in this color. I promise your master to make you two clothes, which will make your work easier."

Xuemei held the thread in one hand and the powder in the other, and stood still in front of him.A cursory glance at the cement spots on his robe, a real waste of good material.

And when she washed, she didn't dare to beat it with a clothes stick. It was really tiring to scrub it bit by bit.

Polygonum indigograss is very common in the field and beside the ditches. Farmers hate this kind of weed that can live with roots.However, I am also willing to collect them and take them home to make dyes.

Cotton cloth is a good thing in the village. Most of them wear linen cloth woven by themselves. Most people want to wear it but they can't wear it!

Si Yao lowered his head to look at his body, licked his back molars back and forth with the tip of his tongue, and went to work for two more days, this robe would definitely be useless.

That's all silver!

Forget it, ugly is ugly, the dirty work has been done, so what's the point of talking about beauty and ugliness.

Xuemei watched him stand upright and open his arms, pursed his lips and ignored the discomfort in his heart, and wrapped the thread around behind him to measure the width of his shoulders and the length of his arms.

Go back to the table and use a wooden ruler to measure the length of the line and record it. When you go back to him and lift the rope up on your tiptoes, it's not easy to measure his neck.

"Keep your head down."

Si Yao bent down cooperatively, and found that she was very petite, not even as tall as his shoulders.

As soon as I lowered my head, I could smell the sweet fragrance on her neck. It wasn't a certain kind of powdery fragrance, but a light fragrance mixed with various fragrances.

This made him, who has a lot of research on spices, very interested. He took a closer look and sniffed, "It smells so good, what kind of fragrance are you wearing?"

The warm breath sprayed on her neck, Xuemei shook her hand holding Fenshi, blushed and pushed him away, covered her neck, gritted her teeth and glared at him in embarrassment.

"lecher!"

Is he a dog sniffing people's necks like this!
