She lay in the room for a while until Wei Miaomiao knocked on the door and asked her when she would get up.
"Now." He felt uncomfortable for a moment. If he could plant the vegetables earlier, he could save money on buying vegetables.
The mother and daughter went downstairs with hoes, greeting the people in the family compound along the way.
Wei Miaomiao is shy and not familiar with the others, but Chen Caiqi is different. She knows exactly how much meat costs in the area and where to buy things cheaply. She also knows who is in each family in the family compound.
When she met the pig-faced Liu Cuiying on the first floor, Chen Caiqi put away the smile on her face and left as if she didn't see it. Lian Yuqing was her daughter-in-law and Liu Cuiying was an outsider. She had heard about the conflicts between the two in the past, so of course she had to help her own family.
Liu Cuiying rolled her eyes: "Old woman."
The vegetable plot that Wei Dong was allocated was not big. Apart from the chicken coop, there were still two square meters left. If he grew some vegetables, it would be enough for him to eat for a month.
The mother and daughter were very skillful and worked in perfect harmony. In less than half an hour, they had pulled out the weeds, turned the soil over, and sowed the rapeseed.
"Don't think your brother joined the army when he was a teenager, he doesn't know how to live."
Wei Miaomiao didn't think so. "Mom, my eldest brother has a high salary and benefits. He doesn't have to live like us, scratching for food."
"You are still young, little girl. You have a long life ahead of you. If you don't save some money, how will your children be fed, clothed and defecate in the future? We have to save every penny to get by."
Chen Caiqi bent down to water the plants, muttering to herself. As usual, Wei Miaomiao did not argue with her mother. In short, she felt that her elder brother and sister-in-law's life would get worse and worse in the future.
The mother and daughter were covered in mud while working. Chen Caiqi snatched the muddy hoe from her daughter's hand and said, "Don't take it. There's too much mud. I'll wipe it off later."
A middle-aged woman was standing downstairs in the family building at the far end. She had her long hair tied up and was dressed neatly. She wore a fitted jacket and black pants, and black high heels. She looked very imposing.
"Comrade, who are you looking for?" Chen Caiqi was as warm and simple as a country man.
Qu Tongxin looked at the dirty and messy woman in front of him, frowned and took a step back, "Don't get so close to people when talking to them, it's impolite."
"Also, how many days haven't you washed your hair? It's so greasy that you can cook with it. You'll get sick if you don't pay attention to hygiene." Qu Tongxin said with a look of disgust, completely ignoring Chen Caiqi's already dark face.
"Mom, I'm sorry, I just fell asleep." Jiang Min ran downstairs in a hurry.
Qu Tongxin didn't even look at her, "Making the elders wait for so long, is this what your parents taught you?"
Jiang Min's face suddenly turned grim.
Chen Caiqi watched Qu Tongxin go upstairs in a pretentious manner. Jiang Min looked over and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Aunt Chen. My mother has high standards. Please don't mind."
Haha, it would be strange if you didn’t mind.
While eating, Chen Caiqi muttered to herself for ten minutes.
"So what if they eat commercial grain? People in the city still eat rice grown by people in the countryside. Look at how arrogant she is. If you don't know her, you would think she is a national leader."
"Xiao Jiang is so unlucky to have such a mother-in-law."
Lian Yuqing calmly moved the last dish away to avoid Chen Caiqi's saliva.
She finally discovered that her cheap mother-in-law, Chen Caiqi, was not a bad person and had no evil intentions, but she was too nagging and gave people a headache.
"Mom, mom." Lian Yuqing pulled Chen Caiqi out of her anger and back to reality. "If you were so angry, you shouldn't have let her go. You should have cursed her for three hundred rounds. That would make you feel better both physically and mentally."
Chen Caiqi was just a paper tiger, and said with a stiff mouth: "She walked fast!"
