Chapter 56
He took a few breaths into the palm of his hand, and finally felt the palm of his hand. Su Wanniang gritted her teeth and stretched out her hand to lift the wooden bucket full of water from the river. It's really not small, and it didn't take much effort to lift it up, and put it firmly on the flat ground.

This man with brute strength and a personality like a cow only knows how to work hard, Su Wanniang sighed, isn't he born to work?

However, even so, Su Wanniang swore that she would at most mention the water for today, and for tomorrow's water, no matter what, Xu must come. Since it is said that the division of labor is made, then it is fair to share one person at a time!

Su Wanniang lifted her foot and kicked another empty bucket into the river. The bucket filled the river with a plop and quickly filled half of the bucket with water and then sank. Su Wanniang quickly lifted the full bucket again. When I got up, I carried a bucket of water on both ends of the pole, and bent down to carry the two buckets of water on my shoulders.

Not to mention, it's okay to carry the buckets. The two ends together are really enough for Su Wanniang to bear. Fortunately, it's still possible to pick them up. It's a cold day, and it's a trip less!
It took Su Wanniang nearly half an hour to carry water alone, which is an hour in the 21st century. The weight of these two buckets of water is still no match for her body. She has the strength but not the hardship Therefore, she has to rest for a while every few steps.

Compared to carrying water, chopping firewood is an easy job, at least you don't have to touch the cold river water.

When Kong Zhishu came back, Su Wanniang was chopping firewood at the door of the firewood room in the backyard. There was a pile of chopped firewood at her feet, and she was still struggling hard with a chopping knife in her hand.

Just these jobs made Su Wanniang sweat all over in the cold winter of the twelfth lunar month.

"What are you doing?" Kong Zhishu stood in front of Su Wanniang with an uneasy expression, and the hard-working people didn't notice his existence.

Su Wanniang was startled by the sudden voice, raised her eyes and glanced at Kong Zhishu who was two meters away, and said angrily, "I can't understand, chopping firewood!"

"Who asked you to do these jobs?" Kong Zhishu's voice was frighteningly cold.

"Your parents and your second sister-in-law! They said that I will share the housework with your second sister-in-law!" Su Wanniang replied truthfully, "I just picked a tank of water and was pushed here to chop firewood. Without firewood, there is no need to cook lunch!"

"Su Wanniang."

Kong Zhishu suddenly and seriously called Su Wanniang's full name, followed by a series of scolding.

"Are you stupid or crazy? Do what you're told? Where's all your cleverness when you talk back to me?"

After being yelled at by Kong Zhishu, Su Wanniang threw down the hatchet in her hand, "I'm happy with you in the future! Did you see, it's so cold that I'm sweating all over! But who made me the daughter-in-law of the Kong family, Your father has already spoken, this housework is always to be done!"

"To say you are stupid is to flatter you!" Kong Zhishu looked at Su Wanniang's plump face and was really sweating profusely, but contrary to his expression was his red palm from the cold.

Su Wanniang was confused by Kong Zhishu's scolding. Seeing Kong Zhishu striding towards her, she dragged her away from the door of the firewood house, and dragged her fat body all the way to Father Kong's house. He didn't even knock, just pushed the door open and walked in.

"Father, mother, this is how you bully my wife! Why do you leave all the work in the house to my wife, and all of you are sitting in the room lazy!" Kong Zhishu asked in a questioning tone.

"As the daughter-in-law of the Kong family, why do you still bully your wife when you do some housework!" Father Kong was startled by the door being opened so suddenly, seeing that it was Kong Zhishu who came to question him, he stood up angrily from the bed stand up.
