After transmigrating into a stepmother, I transformed my whole family to work on farming

Chapter 68 It's All For You

There is no way to answer this question yet.

It is now April, and there are still more than three months before the rice is ripe.

After being busy with spring plowing, I finally have some free time.

Liu Ji took the water mill's money box home and counted 170 copper plates.

"Including the eggs and the vegetables, the income is almost [-] yuan." Liu Ji finished counting and reported to Qin Yao.

Oh, by the way, there are also the four little chicks given by Grandma Wang in the chicken coop, which are much more than in March.

But not everyone invests money so consciously, there are also those who steal and play tricks, use the water mill and leave without paying, not once or twice.

"Has anyone been found?" Qin Yao asked.

This is not a problem for Liu Ji. Honest people hate people like him, but the boys in the village compliment him the most because he has seen the world outside. It only took him a long time to find out who refused to pay.

"We know who it is, but there is no evidence now. I will ask Erlang to go to the mill to keep an eye on him later. If he is caught once, we will settle the old and new accounts together!"

In the past, he was the one who took advantage of others, when will it be his turn to be taken advantage of by others?

Liu Ji swears in his heart that he will beat him to death if he is caught, and ask the other party to make up all the money for him, plus the mental damage fee!

Qin Yao told him with rare approval, "This time I allow you to pretend to be powerful."

Liu Ji's expression froze, as if he didn't have the ability to deal with people.

However, it is definitely better to have Hu Wei to borrow from him. There are many brothers in that family, and he really can't stand it alone.

While the couple was settling accounts, a faint sound came from outside the hospital: "Cack-clack——"

Liu Ji raised his eyebrows in surprise, and his eyes flashed with joy.

"Ma'am, I'll put the cash box back, and then I'll go buy two handfuls of fresh vegetables. Put the clothes you want to wash in the basin first, and I'll wash them together later."

After explaining, he went out holding the cash box.

When he arrived at the door, he rushed to the grass in the distance and waved quickly. A figure jumped out and followed him. The two of them ran towards the river together, sneaking around like thieves.

The two of them came to the grove across the river together. Liu Ji smiled and gave the other person a slap on the chest, "How come you guys still remember the secret code called chicken? I almost didn't catch it."

The other party teased him amusedly: "Third brother, it's really not easy to ask you to come out, and you have to give a secret signal, sister-in-law is too strict with you."

Liu Ji didn't want to talk about this topic, as it would damage his image in front of his younger brother, so he skipped the question directly:

"What's the good news?"

Shunzi was surprised and asked back: "Third brother, how do you know it's a good thing?"

Liu Ji thought to himself, guessing randomly.With a smile on his face without saying a word, he signaled Shunzi to speak quickly.

Shunzi was from Xiahe Village, and met Liu Ji in the county seat. Both of them were well-known hunks in their respective villages, and they went out all day to drill camps and didn't bring any money back home.

Such two people are unwelcome people at home, and they resonate strongly when they meet. You call me brother, and I call you brother, which is very good.

Compared with Liu Ji, Shunzi still knows how to take care of her family. She farms at home during busy farming seasons, and only wanders around when she has free time—looking for opportunities to get ahead!

No, I just found out that Ding Yuan’s family in the town was looking for part-time workers, so I immediately ran over to Liu Ji, hoping that the two of them could go out together to do something big.

Liu Ji became excited when he heard that he was going to work at the Yuan's house. "When are you leaving?"

Shunzi said: "I will wait for you at the entrance of our village at the beginning of tomorrow (five o'clock in the morning), let's go together."

Having said that, he was worried about Liu Ji's speed and repeatedly warned him before leaving: "Third brother, get up earlier. This time there are only ten people besides Ding. If you go late, you won't be able to register."

The fastest journey from Liujiacun to Jinshi Town takes one and a half hours, but Xiahe Village is much closer, and you can reach the town in half an hour.

Liu Ji calculated the time and found that he had to set off at least a quarter past three o'clock, so that the two of them could arrive at Ding's wife's house early at the end of Mao hour.

Thinking of getting up so early and walking at night, Liu Ji hesitated.

But then I thought about it, if I were to be appreciated by Ding, wouldn't I be able to achieve great success and enjoy endless glory and wealth in the future?

The most important thing is, if he has the support of Member Ding, why should he be afraid of Qin Yao, a wicked woman?
Thinking of this, Liu Ji felt secretly happy.

Back home, while Liu Ji went into the kitchen to cook, he peeked at Qin Yao who was weeding the vegetable patch in the yard. He thought of many excuses in his mind, and finally said, half truthfully and half falsely:
"My lady, I'm afraid I have to leave home for a few days."

Qin Yao didn't even look back and responded in a calm tone, "No, you stay at home, look after the fields and weed the vegetable fields, just take care of the house. I've already figured it out. You can pay back the debt you owe me slowly. No." Eager for this moment.”

Liu Ji's heart skipped a beat, what does this mean?
He asked in surprise: "Do you know why I have to leave home for a few days?"

"Young member Ding is looking for part-time workers, right?" Qin Yao turned around and said with a smile, "Don't worry, you don't have to get up early tomorrow, I'll go for you."

As he spoke, as if he couldn't see his shocked expression, he continued to say to himself:

"It's better for a man with your looks to stay out of the public eye. The world is tough and dangerous, and men must learn to protect themselves."

She had never spoken to him in such a considerate tone, but at this moment Liu Ji just felt his hair stand on end.

How did she know that he was going to Ding Yuanwai's house?

How did she know that he would get up early to meet Shunzi tomorrow?
Liu Ji asked tremblingly, "How do you know?"

Qin Yao smiled brightly, "Because I am standing behind you."

Liu Ji shouted angrily: "Are you a ghost!"

Qin Yao put down the small hoe in her hand and stood up, threw the hoeed grass aside, went to the sink to scoop out water and washed her hands, lowered her eyes and said slowly:
"With your little strength, I'm afraid you won't be able to register. It's safer for me to go. Anyway, we are all a family. Who can do it? It's the same whether you go or I go."

Liu Ji thought to himself, if it's all the same, why don't you let me go!
He forced himself to calm down, pulled a smile from the corner of his mouth, and reminded her: "They only want men, but there are no women who work as day laborers."

"No?" Qin Yao turned around and looked at him with a pair of black eyes fixedly, "No in Liujia Village, not in Jinshi Town, not in Kaiyang County, and neither in Bauhinia Mansion nor in the capital?"

Liu Ji angrily retorted: "I have never been to Jingzhou Prefecture or the capital, how do I know!"

"Yeah, you don't know either. If you don't know, you have it, or you may not." Qin Yao shrugged and spread her hands, with a tolerant look like you continued to argue.

But Liu Ji knew that if she continued, she was going to make a move.

"Qin Yao, how can there be such an unreasonable woman like you in this world!" Liu Ji gritted his teeth and asked.

Everything will be robbed of him, woo woo woo
Qin Yao's palm landed on his shoulder, and her strength sank, as if a thousand pieces of gold were on top of her head. Liu Ji only heard a crisp "click" sound from her kneecap, and her expression changed instantly, "Ma'am, please forgive me!"

Then hurriedly told: "Young lady must not be late tomorrow."

Qin Yao withdrew her hand from his shoulder and smiled coldly, "I'm doing this for your own good."

Liu Ji: Thank you!
