Chapter 255: The fate she couldn't escape
"That's right by the river, right next to a tree, with good ventilation and shelter from the sun, just right."
When Bai Wei said this, Chen Fangfang also nodded.
"Sister-in-law is right."
"Okay, let's go!"
Song Qinian thanked Zhang Junzhi and others, and took Song Qifu with him. The two brothers pushed two carts of horse manure towards the river.
But the smell of horse dung was so strong that everyone I met on the road frowned and stayed away from it.
When they learned that Bai Wei wanted to use horse dung for fermentation, they all admired Bai Wei's courage. After all, the fermentation process was quite troublesome.
When they reached the river, Bai Wei found the shady spot, and the Song Qinian brothers parked the cart.
"Fangfang, take a look, is this piece of land suitable?"
Bai Wei pointed, Chen Fangfang looked at it carefully and nodded vigorously.
"That's right! Sister-in-law, let me dig a fermentation pit first!"
Chen Fangfang is indeed a good worker. She is never idle. She picks up the hoe and starts digging the hole.
Xiao Meng saw Chen Fangfang working and started digging with her.
"I'll help, too."
Song Qinian rolled up his sleeves and said he would go downstairs to help, but Chen Fangfang waved her hands and wiped her face.
"Brother, we can just dig the land here. You and Qi Fu will have to trouble you to find some wood and make sawdust. This is the material needed for fermentation."
"Just wood shavings, right? Do you want anything else?"
Song Qinian wrote it down and asked another question.
"Rice straw, wheat stalks, stalks, and chaff are all fine, but they're hard to find in this season. So wood sawdust is the most convenient."
Chen Fangfang's explanation was very logical.
Bai Wei discovered that when Chen Fangfang talked about her areas of expertise, her eyes lit up.
"Okay! Then Qi Fu and I will go get it! Qi Fu, let's go."
Song Qinian patted Song Qifu on the shoulder and motioned him to go with him.
Song Qifu glanced at his elder brother, then looked at Chen Fangfang.
"No, I...I want to follow Xiaofang. Mom said, I...I have to keep an eye on Xiaofang."
Song Qifu's tone was very childish, but when he said this, Bai Wei clearly noticed that Chen Fangfang's eyes had turned a little colder.
But she just pursed her lips, looked up at Song Qi Fu and smiled.
"Qi Fu, I'm with my sister-in-law. I won't run away. You go with my brother. I'll wait for you here."
"Be obedient and pray."
Song Qinian also heard the hint in Song Qifu's words.
He glanced at Bai Wei, and there was something meaningful in both of their eyes.
Song Qifu said that he wanted to keep an eye on Chen Fangfang. This was all Shen Cuiyu's suggestion. Is he really afraid that Chen Fangfang will run away?
Looking at Song Qinian in front of him, Song Qifu could only pinch the corner of his clothes and agreed reluctantly.
"I know, I know. Xiaofang, don't go anywhere. Wait...wait for me to come back!"
Song Qifu couldn't help but say another sentence.
He seemed really afraid that Chen Fangfang would suddenly disappear.
Chen Fangfang did not respond, but waved the hand holding the hoe, seemingly using more force.
"Let's go."
Song Qinian took Song Qifu away with him, and before leaving, he specifically told Bai Wei something.
"Weiwei, you just need to watch from the sidelines. Your body can't stand the torture."
"Okay, I know! I have to say it countless times a day."
Bai Wei waved helplessly, signaling Song Qinian to leave quickly.
After the two left, Bai Wei secretly picked up the hoe on the ground and prepared to go down.
She is just pregnant, not disabled, so why can't she work?
Seeing her move, Xiao Meng and Chen Fangfang were frightened.
"Master!"
"sister in law!"
Both of them tried to grab Bai Wei.
But Bai Wei just smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will only dig for a while, I promise it won't hurt me. Please keep it a secret for me!"
Xiao Meng was helpless with Bai Wei, but Chen Fangfang frowned.
"But brother..."
Bai Wei didn't care about that. She asked Chen Fangfang while digging the ground.
"Fangfang, you know a lot! You must have done a lot of farm work at home, right?"
Her words immediately diverted Chen Fangfang's attention. She dug the ground and lowered her head to answer.
"Yes, I do most of the housework."
At first, when Chen Fangfang was still young, her mother would help her with the work.
But when Chen Fangfang grew up a little, she was able to do the chores at home and the farm work, so her mother let her do it.
Even she had to earn work points from her father, mother and sister alone. The amount of work put on her was so much that she could not finish it.
The hardships she had gone through over the years had made Chen Fangfang a submissive person. She didn't talk much and just worked hard.
"You've had a hard time, haven't you?"
These six simple words made Chen Fangfang stop digging.
She was stunned for a moment, and felt her nose getting sore. No one had ever asked her if her life was hard.
"I'm... used to it. It's the same everywhere."
Chen Fangfang continued to work with her head down.
In the Chen family, she is the one who lives the most, and the same is true in the Song family.
When she stayed in the village, she had to serve her parents-in-law. Now that she has come to her sister-in-law's house, she has to serve her eldest brother and sister-in-law. This is the fate that she will find it difficult to escape in her life.
