"Mom, I'm not a child anymore. I work hard every day. Look at my hands and face. How can I look good in front of a rich young master? Who would like me? What should I do?"
As he spoke, tears actually fell from his eyes, with a steamed bread in his hand and some food still unswallowed in his mouth. His clothes were indeed tattered and he looked shabby.
Mrs. Li could only comfort her quietly, "After the spring ploughing, you can do some housework at home, and don't do other work. Take good care of yourself and you will come back. Mother hasn't forgotten about you, and I have asked a matchmaker to help find a match. You are all my children, how can I not care about you?"
Zhao Zhaodi wiped her tears and asked in surprise, "Really, mother? You really helped me to see the fortune?"
"Well, don't say a word. You are a girl who talks about appearance every day. Who would dare to marry her? You should behave yourself now. Don't make a fuss anymore. Don't do things without rules. And be careful with your words, okay?
Go out less in the future and don’t go crazy with other girls. You know, I just need to cook and do needlework at home, right? ”
Zhao Zhaodi lowered her head shyly and said, "I will always listen to my mother."
Seeing that she listened to advice, Li was also satisfied. Her daughter, Li, must not be inferior to those born to Wang or Song.
Zhao Zhaodi gnawed on steamed bread, thinking that when she married a rich young lady, she would never go to the fields or work again. It would be best if she could hire two people to serve her, wear gold and silver, and have meat on the table every day!
Dad, mom, grandparents, brothers, no one can eat or drink from her, no one can take a penny from her.
"My dear, you take care of the house, and I'll watch over the fields. Remember to bring water to my and the second brother's place later. Cook more lunch and better dishes. Each person should get at least two slices of meat. If you don't eat well, you won't have the energy to work."
"Got it. Be careful and stop working."
He wanted to work, but after being frightened by the second bastard, he really didn't dare to do it.
On the second day of spring ploughing, Zhao Dashu and his family boarded a horse-drawn carriage for a tour of the city of Dongfu. But Liu Shunzi's family was so envious that they went out to play and play again.
And they can only stay in the village and farm miserably. I really want to go out and play with them. It must be lively and fun with two families together.
"Why don't you find a few unskilled laborers, give them the work, and go out with us."
The whole family looked at them with helpless eyes, just like the puppy whose cat had died in the village, and they looked quite pitiful.
"No, we are worried about you guys. Go quickly. Remember to bring us some new things from the city when you come back."
"Okay, then we're leaving. I'll leave you guys to take care of the house. And take good care of the dog!"
"Why are you talking so much nonsense? Get out of here!" If you can't see the person, you won't think about him.
"Sister Chunmiao, I'll bring you some candied haws when I come back."
Liu Chunmiao: Can the candied haws brought from Fucheng still be eaten?
"No, bring me something else that's not available in the county."
"Hey, I'll look for it carefully."
The carriage left Zaoshu Village and not many people noticed it. Everyone was working in the fields and had no time to spare.
After they left, Liu Shunzi suddenly felt a little empty, as if his home had lost a lot of life.
"Hey, let's go and plant the seeds!"
