Chapter 25

It's busy farming season, and the potatoes haven't been dug yet. Jinyue plans to decorate the new house after a few days of busy work.

It's already October in the lunar calendar, and the weather is getting colder and colder.Today it was Jinyue's turn to cook again. She cooked cornmeal soup as usual, then fed the pigs and chickens. After Su Shen settled down, she was ready to go to work in the fields.

Su Boss and Su Lao Er were going to the field to pull the corn that had been broken a few days ago. Su Lao Er asked Jinyue to dig potatoes first, and he would help her later.

The potato field is on the hill opposite their house, called Namianwan.

Although it doesn't look too far away, because the road is inconvenient, you have to go down the mountain and pass a river, then go up the mountain, and walk up the rugged path that winds like a snake before you can reach the ground.

This is the first time for Jinyue to walk such a steep mountain road. When she saw the bottomless cliffs on both sides of the path, she felt her legs go weak.

After finally walking to the field, Jinyue felt that she couldn't breathe, so she dropped the pole and sat down on the field, panting heavily and wiping the cold sweat off her forehead.

This piece of land is about one mu, and it is the largest piece of land in their family. It was drawn down when the land was divided two years ago.

Due to the bad terrain and the barrenness, many people didn't want it, so Papa Su took it over.

After Papa Su took over, he mobilized the three eldest sons to pick up manure in turn. Although the third son was cunning and dumped manure into the river a few times, the land was finally well-raised in the past two years, and potatoes were planted last year.

It took about two hours on the road, and the sun had risen by this time.

Looking at the withered, yellowed and blackened potato vines all over the ground, Jinyue was so anxious that she didn't care about taking a rest, so she pouted her buttocks and swung the hoe, digging hard.

Except for labor classes at school and voluntary tree planting activities, Jinyue had never done farm work in her previous life, let alone a hoe with a shovel.

But because of the memory and ability of the original body, Jinyue can do these things with ease, but her physical strength is a bit weak.

I dug it down with a hoe, and hooked it up again, and three potatoes came out, white, tender and big, and I looked again, and there was another one stuck in the blade of the hoe.

"Huh? Isn't this my niece and daughter-in-law? I heard that you were sick a while ago. Are you better now?"

Jinyue looked back and saw that it was Papa Su's second younger brother Su Yitian—that is, his second uncle, who lived next door to them, and many places were connected.

At this time, he was waving his hands and yelling at her at the junction of the two potato fields.

In the original body's memory, Jinyue quickly searched for this person's information.

"Well, all right."

"Come over and eat some dry food before digging."

"No, I ate in the morning." Jinyue said coldly.

But this second uncle didn't know what to do at all, and came to Jinyue's side in a sneaky way.

"Niece and daughter-in-law, do you really not want to eat?"

"..." Jinyue was too lazy to speak.

"Look at so many men in your family, but let a young daughter-in-law with thin skin and tender flesh come out to do this coolie. What are the others doing?"

Jinyue said nothing in disgust, turned around and continued digging the potatoes over there.

From the original body's memory, she knew that this person had always been dishonest, and he was a bum when he was young.

He knew how to seduce girls everywhere without doing a proper job, and even made two girls pregnant. The girl's natal family came to ask for an explanation, which scared his always timid father to hide in a relative's house in other places.

And the mother who has never been in charge of the house just sighed.

Later, it was Papa Su who came forward to quell the two scandals—Papa Su sold two loads of corn at home and lost money.

At that time, Su's second son was only five or six years old, and the whole family had not yet separated.

Because of this matter, Mrs. Su and Mrs. Su quarreled countless times, and finally separated—at that time, it was just a separation.

Su Yitian's new courtyard was built slowly after the third son Su was born, and it was also built with the help of Su Laosan.

Of course, the second uncle of the Su family stopped for a while because of his brother's kindness, and after the separation, he scrambled to work for his brother's house every day-but even so, Mrs. Su still got angry when she saw him.

Later, with the help of Father Su's entrusting people everywhere, the second uncle married a woman with a crooked mouth in Xipan, and gradually he stopped coming to his brother's house to see his sister-in-law's face.
