Sloth's Home Fragrance of Rice Fields

Chapter 114 The New Scythe
"How old are you all now?" Li Yao sighed. There was no family planning in ancient times, and children were born more. One more is not too many, and one less is not too many. If you sell your parents, you won't feel bad.

"I'm seventeen, Erlang and Sanlang are both sixteen." Originally, Uncle Liu wanted to find a strong man, but the three begged Uncle Liu desperately, so he let him buy the three of them.

"Okay, don't be sad." Li Yao said to Mrs. Gui and Yu'er and the others: "From now on, this will be your home. Our Chen family has no distinction between upper and lower members, so you don't have to be too restrictive. As long as you keep yourselves in peace and don't do anything out of line, you will always be members of our Chen family."

"Yes, ma'am." Seeing that Li Yao is an approachable master, Aunt Gui and Yu'er are also very grateful that they can be favored by Uncle Liu.

"Well, well, you guys go to tidy up first, how many rooms are there in this outer house, you go and find out which one you want to live in."

"Yes, ma'am!"

In the evening, when Chen Huangshi and others returned home, Mrs. Gui was cooking in the kitchen. Yu'er poured water for Chen Shizhu and Chen Huangshi, and said respectfully, "Master, Madam, please drink some water."

The two elders said at a loss: "I will do it myself, I will do it myself!"

Seeing this, Li Yao smiled and said, "Yu'er, go to the kitchen to help Mrs. Gui first."

As soon as Yu'er left, Li Yao said to the two elders: "Father and mother, we bought people to help us share the burden. In the future, you have to get used to it. If you are too polite to them, they will think that we despise them." In the future, I will leave the cleaning and cooking in this house to Yu'er. Aunt Gui will go to the store with my second aunt. Xing'er can do some embroidery or help Yu'er when she is at home. Da Lang and the others will go to the store. Isn't it good to help each other in this way?"

"We are an ordinary family, and we were supposed to serve others. Now that someone is pouring tea and water for you, I feel uncomfortable all over." Chen Huang said.

Li Yao smiled and said, "Mother, you will get used to it slowly in the future."

Chen Yang also said from the side: "Sister-in-law, who is born to serve others, you will gradually get used to it."

On the day of rice harvesting, Hong Daniu and the others came to Chen's house early again.

"Brother Hong, how do you know that we start harvesting rice today?"

"Wen Bin hasn't been to the Escort Bureau for several days. Let's figure it out that it's time to harvest the rice and come over to have a look. It really made it for us." Hong Daniu laughed. I'll go to the Escort Bureau to have a look in a few days. I haven't been there for several days in a row. I must be busy with the field.

"Brother Hong, take this scythe." Chen Wenbin handed out a scythe for cutting rice that Li Yao ordered at the blacksmith a while ago.Li Yao also expected that Hong Daniu and the others would come to help, so he ordered several extra scythes.

Zhou Xin picked up the sickle and looked at it curiously, and asked, "Brother Wenbin, why is your rice-cutting knife so strange?" Everyone's knives have very sharp edges, but this knife edge has small teeth, so it can cut rice. Do you have to break the straw?

When Chen Baojia heard it, he answered first: "My sister-in-law drew it and asked the blacksmith to make it. My sister-in-law said that it would be much faster to harvest rice with this knife."

Seeing that Zhou Xin was still studying the scythe, Peng You said with a smile, "Zhou Xin, you'll know if you try it in the field later."

"Then let's go." Zhou Xin said.
