What the hell, even a wooden barrel bullies her?
Su Erhe didn't bother to care about his character anymore.
Anyway, she was a time traveler. Besides, Su Erhe used to live in the Du family, and no one here knew what her personality was like before.
Why pretend? Just do whatever makes you feel comfortable!
He strode down the hill, looking at the cracked wooden barrel that had rolled to the side of the muddy road.
Go all out.
She raised her feet and stomped down hard, each kick using all her strength to express her deep dissatisfaction, until the wooden barrel was broken into several pieces of wood. Su Erhe picked up the boards and walked back up the slope, picking up the burden and the other bucket of water.
The water is too heavy.
I couldn't lift it at once.
"I'll help you."
Hearing the voice, Su Erhe looked up and glanced across He Zheng's tough face, his expression unchanged, "No need."
He tilted the wooden bucket and poured out half a bucket of water. He picked it up and walked away with it.
She said she didn't care about He Zheng, and that meant she really didn't care about him.
He was carrying his things and walking home when he passed by Zhu Xing. Zhu Xing was so scared that she hid to the side. There was a boy standing next to her, that was Li Dong. There were many people of the same age in the village. Li Dong looked at Su Erhe in amazement as she walked away, trotted down the hill, and poked He Zheng with his elbow.
"Brother Zheng, the girl the Su family brought back has a very hot temper. Can you handle it?"
He Zheng withdrew his gaze from Su Erhe, put the tip of his tongue against his chin and clicked his tongue twice, then slapped his brother on the chest, "Stop talking nonsense."
Li Dong spent a long time trying to figure out what this meant.
Su Erhe's hands were busy as he returned home with the things. The Su family had three rooms with a yard in front surrounded by mud bricks. On one side of the yard was a nest built with a simple wooden shed, where the family's most precious private property lived.
chicken!
One male and two females.
However, it has been a few days since Suerhe came back. Except for eating eggs on the first day, I haven't seen him at the dinner table since then.
She had observed that the eggs were collected by Su's mother.
Su's mother could almost figure out the egg-laying pattern of the two old hens in the house. Even if someone else took the eggs, she would take them out obediently. As for where the eggs ended up, Su's mother never said.
Su Erhe didn't have the courage to ask about the daughter he had exchanged for.
It was quite a coincidence today. She had just put down the bucket when she heard a clucking sound from the chicken coop and the sound of the old hen flapping its wings. It meant she was laying eggs.
Su Erhe looked around vigilantly. There was no one at home or outside.
She quickly went to the chicken coop, bent down, reached in, took out the egg that was still warm from her body temperature, and held it in her palm.
A thought came to mind.
Well, the egg was still in her palm.
But it doesn't matter.
Su Erhe could see an egg lying in his storage space.
This is probably the biggest benefit of her time travel. Although she traveled to such a backward era, she was also given a space. In addition to storage, the most special thing about her space is that it has a copying function. Whatever she holds in her hand, she can copy the same thing. But unfortunately, each thing can only be copied once.
She had also thought about copying the three chickens in the chicken coop into the space and then slaughtering them and eating them.
But no matter how hard she grabbed the chicken, she couldn't copy it.
She guessed it was because the chicken was alive, and perhaps living things could not be replicated.
If the chicken is slaughtered and turned into chicken, it should be possible to clone it.
But temporarily...
She didn't dare to do that yet.
Afraid of being hunted down by Su's mother.
Looking at the lonely egg inside, it is impossible to feel satisfied. I will only be satisfied when the space is filled up.
After copying, she put the eggs back into the nest.
Then he walked to the place where he had dropped the bucket before, grabbed the intact bucket and copied it in the space. When he took it out, there were two buckets on the ground. Not only that, he also copied half a bucket of water in the bucket.
As for the bucket on the ground that had been kicked into pieces by her, Suerhe threw it directly into the space.
Destroy the body and cover up all traces.
All four members of the family went to work. Su's father was in his prime, and Su Dongtian and Su Xiatian were also capable. Both Su's father and Su Dongtian could earn ten work points, and Su's mother and Su Xiatian could earn eight work points. Even the previous Su Erhe started to earn eight work points before he was transferred back to the Du family.
Today's Surho...
Get zero.
She hadn't officially started working yet, and the task given to her by Su's mother was to start with the housework.
The Su family had many people earning work points, so they were not as short of food as other families. But at the same time, with many people working, they naturally had to eat more. In response to the food shortage at home, Su's mother replaced half of the rice with corn grits early on, and every meal was steamed with rice and corn grits mixed together.
It was the first time for Su Erhe to go into the kitchen and cook on her own.
She didn't start cooking right away, but copied the rice, flour, oil, salt and other seasonings in the kitchen into the space. As for corn grits, she really disliked them. It was a pity that there was no meat at home. It would be great if there was meat. She would secretly find a place where no one was around, set up a small stove, and make a meal of meat to satisfy her hunger. Since she came here, she hadn't even smelled the aroma of meat.
The glutton in my stomach was starved to death.
It would be good to find eggs even if you can't find meat. Unfortunately, Su's mother was too good at hiding things, and Su Erhe searched the kitchen but couldn't find them.
Without further delay, I washed the rice and steamed it first. One bowl of white rice was steamed with two bowls of corn grits. The dish was even simpler. I boiled the cabbage in water with two drops of oil. After it boiled, I sprinkled a few grains of coarse salt on it and simmered it with the lid on.
Don’t say that Su Erhe’s cooking skills are bad, this is not her cooking level.
This is what Su's mother told her to do.
Because oil is precious, lard is even more precious.
Anyway, everything is precious.
Of course, Su's mother actually had her reasons for doing this. There were three children in the family. The eldest, Su Dongtian, was engaged, so she had to prepare a decent gift money. The daughter, Su Erhe, was going to marry into the He family, so she also had to prepare a dowry. The third child, Su Xiatian, was fifteen years old, and she would also want to get married in a few years, so she also had to prepare money. If she didn't plan carefully, where would the money come from?
Su's mother is actually a woman who is very good at managing the household.
In those days, supplies were scarce and every household lived the same life. Some families did not have enough food and could not even find white rice. They ate pure cornmeal.
Su Erhe was no longer picky. He couldn't be too picky. These days, you need a letter of introduction to go out, and various tickets to buy things. Going out rashly is seeking death.
Glancing at the sun outside, he realized it was not yet time to get off work, so he planned to take out the eggs from the space and secretly cook them to at least satisfy his stomach.
Just as she held the egg in her hand, she heard footsteps outside, so she had to put the egg back into the space.
"Sister, sister!" Fifteen-year-old Su Xiatian rushed in, "Mom heard that you broke the bucket, so I came back to check..."
There are many gossips in the village, and any little thing happening in someone's family will spread quickly. It's no wonder that Su's mother was anxious. The person who delivered the message was from the Zhu family. More importantly, He's mother was also there. He's mother was Suerhe's future mother-in-law. The He family's conditions were among the best in several villages. After all, there was only one village chief in such a big village. Being able to marry into the village chief's family as a daughter-in-law was already an excellent marriage.
It's just that the wrong girl was picked up. Now, although my own daughter is beautiful, beauty cannot be used to make a living.
There was no work to do in the countryside. If I didn't work, I wouldn't get any work points. Without work points, I wouldn't get any food. So, was I supposed to rely on the He family for support? This was unrealistic.
Su's mother was also anxious at the moment. She was too busy with the work at hand to spare time, so she could only ask her youngest son to go home.
The eggs had been put back into the space. Su Erhe was not in a hurry and pointed to the water tank. "Who said the bucket was broken? It's still there, fine."
Su Xiatian went over to take a look. Sure enough, the water tank was full, and the two buckets were neatly stacked next to it. The boy scratched his forehead and said, "It must be Zhu Xing, the troublemaker again. Brother He Zheng doesn't like her, so she's saying bad things about you everywhere. Sis, wait, I'll go and teach her a lesson for you."
The young man ran out again in a hurry.
There was a hint of warmth in the corners of Su Erhe's pursed lips. Although this time travel was quite infuriating, it was a blessing in disguise that none of his family members were extremely bad.
The young man who was running out of the yard bumped into someone head-on before he even ran out of the yard. The person was taller than him. Su Xiatian was knocked back a few steps and looked at the person in front of him in surprise, "Brother He Zheng? Why are you here?"
He Zheng was strong and healthy, and he remained motionless even after being hit like that.
He carried a bucket in his hand, looked around the Su family yard, and asked casually, "Where's your sister?"
Su Xiatian looked at her future brother-in-law and smiled, revealing her big white teeth. "Brother He Zheng, did you also hear that my sister broke the bucket and was afraid that my mother would scold her, so you sent her a bucket? Don't listen to Zhu Xing's nonsense. Our bucket is fine, it's not broken."
Not broken?
He Zheng saw with his own eyes that the bucket was dismantled into wooden boards.
He is only twenty years old, not two hundred, and he is not blind.
