Of course, they wouldn't be allowed to do the work of propagating He Shou Wu by cuttings.
But as soon as the floodwaters receded, the fields were in a terrible state, full of dirty and tiring work.
Having seen the aftermath of the flood, Fan would never attempt it.
Besides, he already has too much farmland to work on, so he doesn't have time to help his younger brother's family with chores, let alone provide meals!
Fan Jin shifted his gaze from his silent elder brother to his mother, and said calmly, "If you envy your father-in-law's family living in our house and wish to be like them, that's fine too."
It just so happens that Shuiqing doesn't want to cook for more than ten people. With Mom gone, she won't have to work in the fields and mountains like my father-in-law's family; she only needs to prepare three meals a day, without any hardship.
Fan's mother's droopy eyelids suddenly lifted.
She was there to enjoy a life of luxury, to be waited on like an old lady, not to cook for more than ten people, providing them with three meals a day!
Three meals a day. It's only during the busy farming season that they eat three meals a day. It seems that the work at the youngest son's house is no easier than during the busy farming season. With such a large group of people, it's estimated that several bowls of vegetables alone need to be cooked for one meal. Wouldn't that exhaust her?
No, no, that won't do.
Besides, what kind of logic is it for the mother-in-law to cook while the daughter-in-law rests!
“Our family is short of people to do the work. When Mom cooks the meals, Shuiqing can also free up time to work in the fields and mountains.”
If my mother feels embarrassed and insists on working in the fields like my father-in-law's family, I will naturally agree, but I will have to let Shuiqing take on the cooking duties.
"Mother, what do you think?" Fan Jin asked respectfully at the end.
Mother Fan: ...How could she possibly see it?
Does she even have a choice?
Compared to working in the fields, cooking was indeed easier, so cooking was her only option...
Fan Jin seemed to remember something and continued, "By the way, Zhao Di is still at my house. She injured her leg and can't walk. She eats and drinks in bed. Shui Qing didn't mind wiping her body before."
Mother, you are her grandmother, closer to her than Shuiqing, her aunt. When you go and take over Shuiqing's work, I'm sure you'll do a better job.
Otherwise, her older brother and sister-in-law will have to take her back and care for her.
When Fan's mother heard what was happening, her heart sank.
Her youngest son makes it sound so easy; how could she not know?
Eating and drinking in bed, what follows is pooping and peeing, right? The front is fine, but the back is full of poop and pee, wouldn't that suffocate this old woman!
Especially with Shuiqing doing it before, how could she not take over?
I had planned to have a few maids to serve her, but it seems that everyone in my youngest son's family has to work! None of them can rest.
Forget about serving her, she'd be a laborer if she went there!
Upon hearing the last sentence, Mother Fan's dark eyes lit up, and she nodded repeatedly: "Yes, bring them back!"
Upon hearing this, Sun Jinhua became anxious and said in a hoarse voice, "No way!"
Hu Shuiqing is taking care of Zhao Di now, cleaning up after her without complaining about the dirt or the hard work. If she doesn't act as Zhao Di's mother when she comes back, won't Zhao Di hate her to death?
She wouldn't be happy to hold her nose and serve her daughter!
Fan Qian panicked upon hearing this.
He originally intended to have his daughter there, but if he sent his mother over, there would be two fewer people to feed.
Mother is gone now, but daughter is coming back.
Besides, according to my younger brother, Mother can work, but daughter has to lie in bed to recuperate and needs someone to take care of her. It doesn't seem like a good deal at all!
