Grandma Mo couldn't stand hearing others speak ill of her daughters-in-law, and she was always unhappy about it. Every single one of her daughters-in-law was excellent; there wasn't a single one who was bad!
Her face immediately darkened, and she stood firmly in her daughter-in-law's defense, her tone becoming harsh. "Everything my daughter-in-law does is right! No arguments allowed! My daughter-in-law treats this old woman incredibly well, like she's the queen of the house. Does your daughter-in-law treat you like that? Buying you new clothes and shoes, stocking up on all sorts of delicious food and drinks for you, right? Always thinking of you, worried about you getting tired or hot, going out of her way to make you comfortable, right? You don't, do you? But I do! All three of my daughters-in-law are wonderful beyond words! I'm happy to let them manage things! I listen to them all; whatever they do or say is right. If they're wrong, it must be someone else's fault!"
This infuriated Aunt Zhou, turning her face pale. Knowing full well that she didn't have such a good daughter-in-law, Old Lady Mo actually bragged about it in front of everyone. Her smug and self-satisfied appearance was infuriating!
If she had such a good daughter-in-law, would she have to work so hard?
She has long been enjoying a wonderful retirement!
You really know how to bring up the most sensitive topic!
Having a good daughter-in-law is truly remarkable!
If a mother-in-law doesn't have enough authority to keep her daughter-in-law in check, she'll suffer the consequences. Things are fine now, but they'll really be riding on her head later!
They don't even teach them properly, and they still think they're a treasure!
After all, Aunt Zhou is Aunt Zhou, an extraordinary Aunt Zhou. She quickly adjusted her mindset and dared not belittle her son and daughter-in-law in front of everyone. She changed the subject, only wanting the Mo family to move aside and have a good rest!
However, Su Nanxi didn't want to indulge these kinds of people, as if the Mo family owed them something and they had to do things according to their demands!
What a load of shame!
So she winked at Gao Yuling, who immediately understood. Gao Yuling jumped up, stretched her arms, and complained impatiently, "Ugh! It's getting hotter and hotter! There was a breeze before, but now there's none at all! It's so hot! Su Su, let's get to work quickly so we can go back and rest!"
Su Nanxi nodded cooperatively, "Okay! Let's finish these tasks as soon as possible so we can go back! Now, let's move the big umbrella quickly!"
As if receiving an order, Gao Yuling took on the role of foreman, waving her hands vigorously and deliberately lowering her voice to shout, "Mo family members, let's get to work! If you finish early, you'll get some cool sugar water! Get up, everyone! Come on, let's help each other move this big umbrella to the front. Be careful, this thing is very precious!"
Su Nanxi was speechless when she heard Gao Yuling's voice, which didn't sound like a man's. Should she stick some beard on him?
This girl is really addicted to dressing up as a man!
In town, they often dressed as men to make things easier. Gao Yuling found it very novel and fun, so she made several sets of men's clothes and changed into them. She felt very dashing and handsome when she wore them!
That's not all. This girl also imitated her, deliberately lowering her voice and imitating a man's rough voice, to the point that she would occasionally put on a dramatic performance and start acting out a few lines!
Look, here they are, starting their act again, head held high, looking like a smug foreman. If you put a mustache on that little expression, it would look just like one!
The Mo family members reacted quickly and cooperated well. They immediately stood up, some tidying up umbrellas, others picking up things from the ground. Everyone was busy and had something to do!
The Mo family didn't explain to the Zhou family; they simply went over, carried the umbrella away, and moved it to the side.
As soon as the large umbrella was moved away, the Zhou family was exposed to the sun. Yes, they were all exposed to the sun. Now no one was spared the sun. That's fair!
After finally getting some shade and feeling less hot and less sore, I was suddenly back in the heat. This feeling was just too uncomfortable!
They haven't had much rest!
Why did you take the umbrella away? They're going to be roasted alive in the sun!
Aunt Zhou was so angry that her face turned red. She asked the Mo family to make some room for them to cool off. The Mo family not only refused, but now they moved the umbrellas away. What kind of nonsense is this?
“We’re going to get to work, so this umbrella is naturally moving with us! You guys can go back and get back to work now that you’re cool off. The sooner you finish, the sooner you can go back!” Old Mrs. Mo put on her straw hat and prepared to get to work.
Aunt Zhou choked, thinking she should go back to work, but her grandsons were very spoiled and kept complaining that they couldn't stand it and wanted to cool off. They were fine with working, but they needed something shady to block the sun!
Oh dear, it breaks my heart to hear this, my grandson is suffering!
Grandma Zhou was a very traditional and feudal person with a strong preference for sons over daughters. She doted on her grandsons and always called them "my good grandsons." She couldn't bear to see them suffer!
Her daughter-in-law had taken her grandson to another city to make a living. I heard she made some money, but later the market turned bad, and she couldn't earn much anymore, so she came back. After not seeing her for so long, she's spoiling him rotten!
She doesn't let her grandson do any chores on a regular basis. Even though he's so big, he still waits for Aunt Zhou to wash his face!
If it weren't for the busy farming season, and the fact that we couldn't keep up with the harvest, once everyone else had finished, birds, insects, rats, and the like would have taken advantage of their crops!
They didn't have much harvest to begin with, and if it gets ruined, what will they eat?
Look at this weather, I don't know if we'll be able to plant anything in the second half of the year!
Everyone was rushing to harvest, and their land was quickly separated, which made it even easier for birds and other animals to come!
We had no choice but to mobilize the whole family. More people means more strength, and if we can work faster, we can get back home sooner!
That's what we think, but in practice, it's not like that at all!
When has Aunt Zhou's grandson ever been exposed to the sun like this? He came and worked for a short time before he started complaining about wanting to go home. But since one of them went home, the others also wanted to go home, and we couldn't set a precedent, so we coaxed him to keep working.
But children don't have that much patience, especially those who are usually pampered. Once their skin gets sore from the sun, they'll refuse to stay and demand to cool off!
Soon, Aunt Zhou took a liking to the Mo family's large umbrellas. Seeing that people could use them to cool off, she also had an idea. Since there was still room, the whole family could go and cool off!
Not taking advantage of a good deal is the act of a bastard!
But to their surprise, the large umbrella was moved away after only a short while, and they were going to be exposed to the sun again.
Grandma Zhou couldn't bear to see her grandson crying and screaming, but she didn't want to go back now. If everyone made excuses, who would do the work? Of course, she couldn't go back!
She knows her son and daughter-in-law too well. They can't go back; they have to do it all together. How could she, an old woman, do it all by herself?
I want to work her to death!
"Yuqing, you have two big umbrellas, you don't need that many, why don't you lend us one?"
