Although Zhou Mingli didn't give them the braised pork, he still returned a bowl of rabbit meat that he hadn't finished yesterday.
Dazhu and Erzhu firmly refused.
The rabbit Uncle Zhou gave them hasn't been eaten yet. His mother said she'd kill it in a few days. It's already a blessing that they can eat white flour today. Uncle Zhou's family is even poorer than theirs. How can they eat their family's meat?
Dazhu and Erzhu glanced at the braised pork, then glanced at the braised pork again.
Zhou Mingli was amused by their commotion. He gave them half of the large meat bun he had broken open, sent them away, and quickly finished off the braised pork himself.
After washing the pots and pans, Zhou Mingli energetically finished the remaining work at the septic tank.
There wasn't much work left; he had already pre-buried the pipes he had purchased, and all that was left was to seal the top and cover it with soil to finish the job.
Although the toilet is still the same outhouse, it has been completely transformed. As long as it is cleaned frequently, there will be virtually no annoying flies.
When Jiang Ci returned with lunch, she saw that her family's toilet had been renovated.
During this period, they went to Yu's house to use the toilet, troubling him all the time, and they felt quite embarrassed.
"Once our courtyard wall is built, we can buy chickens to raise," Jiang Ci said happily as she parked her bicycle inside the house.
Zhou Mingli responded, "I'll probably be busy lately."
Jiang Ci sighed as well, "Who can say otherwise?"
After taking a nap, Jiang Ci and Zhou Mingli's family went to work with the Yu family.
With Dazhu and Erzhu assure him, Jiang Ci didn't need to worry about bringing Zhou Yang and Zhou Miao along.
In the wheat field, with the encouraging broadcast, everyone in the entire Shanding Brigade began to rush to harvest the wheat.
Except for some elderly people and children who were truly unable to move, almost everyone went to work in the fields. Even Widow Wang had to work reluctantly with Zhou Huai, but Liu Yinyin was not among them.
Her husband was capable, and Xia Lei also promised the team leader that he would continue to work after completing his work points, and all the work points would be credited to Liu Yinyin.
Liu Yinyin is a skilled writer and receives remittances from the post office every month, so she is quite wealthy. As a result, Liu Yinyin spends her days at home thinking about how to write articles.
Every time she brought Xia Lei the mung bean soup he had cooked in the morning, Liu Yinyin would carry an umbrella and walk along the ridges of the fields in a polyester dress. Watching the old women and young wives working hard in the fields, she didn't show any arrogance on her face, but she thought highly of herself.
She's beautiful, smart, and has found a stable job that pays well. How could she possibly be doing such rough work in the fields with a bunch of people?
Today, when Liu Yinyin brought Xia Lei some cooling soup, she saw Jiang Ci among the group of women.
With a slight upturn of her lips, she deliberately walked past Jiang Ci in her sandals.
Liu Yinyin knew that Jiang Ci was very jealous of her and envied her.
She was jealous that Jiang Ci married Xia Lei and envied her beauty. Whenever Jiang Ci appeared, she would fly into a rage. So she enjoyed watching Jiang Ci envy and hate her, but she couldn't do anything about it.
Jiang Ci, wearing a straw hat, was being taught by Zhou Huai how to thresh a bundle of wheat neatly and steadily, and didn't notice Liu Yinyin walking past her at all.
Good heavens, Zhou Huai is only eight or nine years old, yet he can already do this kind of work quickly and steadily.
Jiang Ci never hesitated to praise Zhou Huai, praising him as amazing as soon as she saw him.
Zhou Huai blushed with embarrassment at the praise, feeling both shy and that it was no big deal.
Bundling wheat stalks...everyone in the village knows how to do it.
She secretly tied a few more different knots.
Sure enough, Jiang Ci saw it and praised her for her skill in surprise.
Zhou Huai gave a shy smile. "I...I can teach you."
After saying that, Zhou Huai became somewhat embarrassed, "You...you should know how."
Jiang Ci laughed and said, "No, that's why I wanted you to teach me."
This was Zhou Huai's first time teaching someone, and he was very happy and excited. He nodded emphatically, "Okay."
As Liu Yinyin passed by her, Jiang Ci had already bundled up her first bundle of wheat.
Zhou Huai's gaze was drawn to Liu Yinyin's beautiful dress.
Jiang Ci had already bundled the wheat, and after admiring her work, she said, "Not bad."
Zhou Huai looked enviously at the beautiful floral dress hem, "Liu Zhiqing's dress is pretty."
Liu Yinyin curled the corners of her mouth.
Jiang Ci didn't hear Zhou Huai's words clearly and thought she was praising her for tying up the wheat well, saying, "You have good taste."
Liu Yinyin almost twisted her ankle while walking!
She turned to look at Jiang Ci, her eyes filled with shock and disbelief.
Zhou Huai was caught peeking, his face turned even redder, and he quickly lowered his head.
Liu Yinyin's gaze was too obvious; Jiang Ci couldn't help but feel it. She turned her head to look back, her eyebrows raised.
Oh dear, my arch-nemesis.
"What's up?"
"Jiang Ci, don't think I'll take your praise seriously. I remember you used this trick to fool me before," Liu Yinyin said warily and coldly.
Jiang Ci: "?"
What nonsense is this woman talking about?
Jiang Ci: "Praise? I'm praising you?"
Liu Yinyin snorted coldly, her eyes filled with "You still want to argue? I won't believe you!"
Jiang Ci turned to look at Zhou Huai, "Xiao Huai, do you think my wheat is tied up well?"
Zhou Huai nodded hurriedly and said in a low voice, "Okay, you learn really fast."
Jiang Ci smiled and said, "This is a work of art, Xiao Huai. You have a keen eye for art."
"Let's continue."
Jiang Ci completely ignored Liu Yinyin, and Liu Yinyin's expression turned somewhat unpleasant.
