Perhaps it's because everyone has been silent for too long.
Ning Jing looked up and saw the children staring at her. In just a moment, she understood what they meant, and her face involuntarily flushed for the original owner of the body.
Then, forcing herself to remain calm, she said, "Don't worry, when the grain is distributed, your sister-in-law will definitely get you a new cotton quilt so you won't freeze."
When Xiuchun heard what her sister-in-law said, a look of joy and hesitation flashed in her eyes.
Tie Dan and Siya cheered immediately. Xiu Hua pursed her lips and didn't say anything, but the corners of her mouth, which were originally taut, turned up slightly.
After dinner, Tie Dan stayed home to take care of the twins because of his injury.
Xiuchun took Siya out to dig for wild vegetables, but they didn't get anything done this morning.
The wild vegetables we ate for lunch were the leftovers from what we dug up yesterday.
Because there were many dark lumps of dough and few wild vegetables, the children ate until their bellies were full.
Ning Jing also felt that she had much more strength than yesterday and this morning.
After an afternoon of harvesting, there was actually more than one more row of land than yesterday.
That evening, Ning Jing made an excuse to go inside and then quietly checked her gold coin balance.
Then, a line of text flashed on the system panel.
Do you want to activate household chores?
Below this line of text, there is a red "no" and a green "yes".
Ning Jing blinked. What did that mean?
Didn't Fuqiang remind you when you activated the labor task before?
Why was there no notification or prompt for this activation task?
Do I need to decide for myself whether to start the mission?
(Host, this is your first time activating the mission. This system is providing a free friendly reminder.)
The next task has been activated. A service fee of 5 gold coins is required to remind you.
As if hearing Ning Jing's inner thoughts, the system suddenly spoke out unexpectedly.
Ning Jing rolled her eyes. Five gold coins?
Add one more gold coin and you can buy two pounds of wheat. She must be crazy to ask for this service!
Ignoring what Fuqiang said, she directly confirmed it was true.
(Ding... The host has started the housework task.)
Earn 1 gold coin for every hour of housework completed.
Fuqiang said with some regret.
Household chores? What do they include?
Ning Jing thought for a moment, could it be that she took the quilt apart to wash and dry it today, which activated this task?
(Laundry, cooking, and cleaning are all considered household chores.)
The host is expected to become a clean, hygienic, and hardworking young person.
Upon hearing this, Ning Jing felt terrible.
Back in the day, we had washing machines for laundry, robot vacuums for sweeping, and Meituan for meals. We would only go to the supermarket to buy ingredients and cook when we were in the mood.
Every year during the deep cleaning, we hire a cleaning lady to do the cleaning.
Is it really true that I have to do all of this myself now?
Thinking about how Xiuchun used wood ash to wash the quilt at noon, and how even soap was a luxury, Ning Jing almost wanted to wail.
She gritted her teeth and asked, "So, is there any reward or gift pack for this activation mission?"
Fuqiang paused almost imperceptibly.
(Ahem, here's your reward: 5 gold coins + a cleaning gift pack! Please check!)
Hearing about the rewards and gift packs made Ning Jing feel a little better.
Although the reward of gold coins is small, every little bit helps.
And isn't there also a cleaning gift pack?
The one without the large text had quite a few items to choose from.
This time there's a big character, so it's definitely more than before.
Thinking of this, Ning Jing couldn't help but feel a little excited.
