"Husband, husband, what's wrong with you?"
"Oh, I'm not hungry. I'm done eating. I'll clean up the dishes."
"Husband, you don't need me to do that. I'll clean it up right away."
"Wanniang, you can pull weeds in the fields. My family doesn't have much to do, so you won't be tired. Leave the dishes to me."
Li An picked up the dishes and chopsticks on the table and walked towards the kitchen.
“Bang!”
The moment Li An's bowl and chopsticks fell to the ground, he quickly squatted down to pick up the bowl and chopsticks.
"Husband, what's wrong? Why did you drop the dishes? Did you hurt your hands?"
"Wanniang, I didn't."
"Dad, please sit down first and don't worry about the dishes."
Li An always listens to his daughter. When Li Mengyue asked him to leave the dishes alone, Li An really gave up, stepped back a few steps and sat on the stool.
"Dad, you're worried about uncle and the others."
"No, your father just slipped and didn't hold it firmly."
Seeing that her father did not admit it, Li Mengyue did not say anything else, but changed the subject.
"Dad, I have over a thousand acres of land, all planted with fruit trees and medicinal herbs. But it needs to be managed. Otherwise, weeds will grow over time and affect their growth. In serious cases, the grass will grow taller than the herbs and it will become a wasteland."
"Daughter, I'm sorry. Dad has been too busy lately and hasn't been able to take care of you. I'll go weed the fields later."
"Dad, that's not what I meant. I wanted to ask someone to manage it. This way, it would save us both trouble and effort."
Li An felt very upset when he heard this. He felt that his daughter disliked him and even didn't let him take care of the land.
An instant of disappointment appeared on Li An's face, but Li Mengyue's next words made him smile.
"Dad, the rice in the fields has been harvested, so we have to start plowing next spring. I don't want you to be idle at home."
"Yes, daughter, Daddy just doesn't want to be idle. You can let Daddy do any work you need."
"Don't worry, there will be times when you are too busy and want to take a break."
When Li An heard this, he was not scared at all. Instead, he became very motivated.
He doesn't want to be a freeloader, he has to work hard to make money so that his wife and children can live a better life.
Even though he couldn't do it with his brain, he had a grown-up daughter, so he could rely on her.
Of course, he also has to work.
If his daughter doesn't let him do it, he will be worried.
"Daughter, who will manage the orchard and the medicinal herb field?"
"Of course it's my uncle."
Li An exclaimed in surprise: "What!"
"Dad, I've thought about it. We need our orchard and medicinal herb fields. I don't feel comfortable leaving them to outsiders. But my uncle is different. He's very knowledgeable about the crops in the fields. It's perfect for him to help look after them."
"Daughter, you don't have to take care of your uncle for our sake."
"Dad, what are you talking about? I've seriously considered it. My uncle is an expert in farming. Look at the fields at the old house. With my uncle taking care of them, the harvest is among the best in the village. Not to mention anything else, this year's rice is just like this, and everyone in the village knows it."
Li An knew that his daughter was telling the truth. The adults and children in the village all knew that the rice harvest in the old house was good.
