"Does it hurt?"
Meng Qidi looked for a long time but couldn't figure out what was going on, so she let go of the old lady and asked.
Wang Jinhua shook her head gently. "It doesn't hurt now. It was just a little stinging. I think it was because a moth flew in."
Thinking of the strange well water, Ling Xiao suggested, "How about washing your eyes with water?"
Meng Qidi looked at him suspiciously, "Is the well water clean?"
Ling Xiao touched his nose and said, "Don't you usually drink water directly?"
Meng Qidi paused, "You are right..."
"I'll go get some water!" Ling Cheng quickly picked up the basin, opened the door and ran out.
The water came, Meng Qidi scooped up some to help wash...
"How do you feel now? Does it still hurt?" Meng Qidi handed her the towel.
Wang Jinhua wiped her face and blinked her eyes with great effort. "It seems to not hurt anymore."
She remembered that she could see a dark shadow in the room before, but now it was gone.
Although she was confused in her heart, she didn't say it out loud, probably because her eyesight was blurry due to her old age.
The old lady's eyes were fine, so she sent the two of them to rest.
No one took this matter seriously.
The next day, when I woke up, it was drizzling and I had to go to work.
Looking at the rainy sky, Meng Qidi sighed. There were raincoats and rain boots in the space, but there were too many people planting rice today, so she couldn't wear them. It was so frustrating...
Ling Xiao glanced outside and said, "Why don't you just not go?"
"Don't be so squeamish. Do you have a raincoat at home?"
Ling Xiao sighed, "Yes..."
He shouldn't let her go to work alone. The whole family is at home, and she's alone. What a shame...
Meng Qidi had no idea what Ling Xiao was thinking. She found a raincoat in the corner of the main room, put it on and went out. When she reached a deserted place, she bent down and put on rain boots and rain pants that she had taken out from the space.
After all, she didn't dare to gamble with her own body.
When I got off work in the afternoon, my upper body was a little wet, but my lower body and feet were dry.
When I went back, I was about to change it, but then I remembered that I would have to change it again in the afternoon, so I decided not to change it. When I found out, I explained that it was sent by her father.
After taking off her raincoat at the door and entering the house, Ling Xiao saw that her body was dry except for her hair and shoulders, so he breathed a sigh of relief and handed her a towel.
"Go change your clothes. I've made ginger and sugar water. Do you still want to go this afternoon?"
"There's still a little time left in the afternoon, and I don't have much land left."
The division of labor in Lingjia Village is different. Basically, those who are responsible for transplanting rice are assigned a piece of land.
"I'll go with you this afternoon."
"What are you going to do?" Meng Qidi stopped wiping her head and looked at him suspiciously.
"If you're worried, I won't get in the way. You can wait on the shore with an umbrella."
After serving in the army for several years, he couldn't sit at home and let a woman go out to work in the heavy rain.
In the morning, he was busy doing housework and cooking, so he could only sit still.
Fortunately, the rain stopped when she went out in the afternoon, otherwise Meng Qidi would have felt like she had a terrible headache.
No one at home noticed the raincoat she brought back, so Meng Qidi hung it on a bamboo pole before pushing Ling Xiao out.
Ling Xiao is not completely useless. At least he can help pull the seedling lines and throw a few seedlings into the fields.
Ling Fugui came over from a distance, saw Ling Xiao at the edge of the field, turned around a few times, and left in shame.
Only after finishing planting their own fields did Meng Qidi and Ling Xiao go home from work.
As soon as he arrived at the door, he saw Ling Fugui chatting with the old lady at the door. Ling Xiao frowned and a hint of displeasure flashed in his eyes.
"I guess he has something wrong. Let's see what it is."
Meng Qidi held Ling Xiao down and pushed him over.
"Third sister-in-law, they are back." Ling Fugui straightened his back when he saw the two of them coming back.
Wang Jinhua smiled and said, "Okay, then tell them that I will go to cook and stay home to eat in the evening before going back."
As soon as Wang Jinhua entered, Ling Xiao looked at Ling Fugui coldly, "What's the matter? I think I saw my uncle by the field this afternoon."
Although Ling Xiao was sitting in a wheelchair, his aura was not weak.
Ling Fugui didn't dare to look his nephew in the eyes.
"Our factory is hiring temporary workers. If you do well, you can get permanent jobs. This is not because you are spoiled by your brother and sister-in-law. It is not good to work in the fields. It is better to have a proper job in our meat processing factory."
Ling Fugui was a little proud. He was more useful than Ling Xiao. That rough man Ling Xiao had no idea that a wife needed to be carefully cared for.
No matter how slow Ling Xiao's reaction was, he could still feel the provocation in Ling Fugui's words. His eyes were cold and his whole body was filled with chill.
"My uncle is so capable, why doesn't he just arrange for my husband and me to work as regular employees in the factory?"
Ling Fugui was helpless, "My uncle is not the factory director, and it's good enough that he can arrange a temporary job for my niece-in-law."
If Ling Xiao's wife wasn't pretty, he wouldn't have worried about it.
"I wonder what job my uncle introduced?"
Meng Qidi sighed and lowered her eyes, "My uncle also said that I am a pampered person. I can't stand being scolded or tired. I usually get up late. I am afraid of cold and dampness on rainy days, and I am afraid of heat and sun on sunny days."
The corners of Ling Xiao's mouth twitched, and the anger in his heart instantly dissipated because of her words.
"More than being spoiled, ever since you got married, there has never been a lack of food in the house, either meat or eggs. If the conditions at your uncle's place are not good, then don't go there. Go and suffer next door."
Meng Qidi couldn't help but want to laugh, how mean!
However, it really can't be blamed on them for being too mean. Who asked Ling Fugui to say that she was spoiled? Who was she looking down on...
The couple sang the same tune, and Ling Fugui wanted to run away. They thought the factory wanted her to be the eldest daughter...
Ling Fugui didn't dare to continue the topic. He didn't even want to talk to the couple. He simply squatted down and talked to Ling Cheng.
A minute later, the little girl's disgusted voice sounded, "Little Grandpa! You are too stupid, this is not like this, get out of the way, I won't let you play, I can play alone!"
Ling Fugui...
I really want to throw my things and leave. I am so mad at him...
After dinner, Ling Fugui said something and left without looking back, as if someone in the Ling family would keep him.
"What happened to him?" Wang Jinhua asked suspiciously as she watched Ling Fugui leave.
"Maybe something happened at home." Ling Xiao said lightly.
"What could have happened that he left in such a hurry? Has his family found a partner for him?"
Wang Jinhua sat down and muttered, "By the way, has your uncle told you about the work? Xiaoqi, what do you think? Do you want to go?"
Meng Qidi shook her head. "I told my uncle that I won't go. I can't work in a meat processing factory. I can't stand the smell there."
Wang Jinhua sighed with some regret, "Okay, if you don't want to go, then don't go. Ling Xiao still has some money, enough for our family to live on."
Anyway, we can grow our own vegetables and exchange food, and there is no need for Xiaoqi to do anything for us.
The reason why she was moved was that Fugui was right. If she could have a formal job, why would she have to work so hard?
Neither Meng Qidi nor Ling Xiao responded. It was obvious that they both had their own thoughts.
The next day they were going to return to Mengjia Lane for a banquet. After dinner, Meng Qidi returned to her room and searched through the walls and cabinets for gifts.
"What do you need delivered?" Ling Xiao followed her into the room and asked. He really felt bad for asking her to do everything by herself.
