The Peasant Wife Has a Space

Zhao Xiulan may have been born from a family of scholars before, but now she lives in the countryside because of her family situation.

Zhao Xiulan didn’t tell them, keeping a little bit of reserve for them was nothing more than being vigilant. In this era, many things are more sensitive and cannot be said casually, otherwise they will cause harm to themselves.

Jiang Cheng fell into contemplation for a while, and became a little more interested in Zhao Xiulan.

On the other end, Zhao Xiulan quickly walked back to her home with a basket on her back.

When she was on her way back, she took out some corns from the space, and also put some sorghum flour into the basket.

Not much, just two catties of each.

For the country folks, it is not bad to beg for several catties of foodstuffs. Even if you earn work points in the production team, at the end of the year, you may not be able to earn so many work points by the end of the year.

Especially in the natural disasters that began last year, the foodstuff harvest of the production team was not as good as before. When the provisions are distributed at the end of the year, the foodstuffs received by each family are not enough for the family’s rations for a year.

In the spring, if it wasn’t for the people in the production team, who could dig some wild vegetables or think of other ways by themselves, it’s impossible for a few families to be able to survive the year with the little foodstuffs distributed in the production team.

When Zhao Xiulan came back, the production team had just finished the morning’s work. Everyone rested at home for a while at noon, and they had to continue to work in the afternoon.

In addition to the busy agricultural seasons, when working in the production team, people are especially in a hurry to catch up with the harvest. In the seasons that are not particularly busy, the team members will be given time to rest.

People are not machines, so they have to have time to rest.

Seeing Zhao Xiulan coming back so early, Li Lijuan was eccentric again and said, “Zhao Xiulan, how was it? Did you go to the county seat and didn’t get something to eat? You came back so early, so it seems that you held back and didn’t ask for anything, right?

Heh, you didn’t bring anything back and was just so lazy the whole morning without going to work to earn work points!”

Li Lijuan didn’t have to work, but because of Zhao Xiulan, she went to work again today.

Under the bright sun, her skin hurts to death and she is so tired!

Li Lijuan blamed Zhao Xiulan for all of this. If it wasn’t for Zhao Xiulan’s cheap mouth, Zhao Weiguo wouldn’t have let her go out to work.

So, when she saw Zhao Xiulan coming back at this moment, she immediately scolded her.

After Zhao Xiulan was targeted by Li Lijuan, she looked at Li Lijuan who looked like an idiot.

“Li Lijuan, why don’t you shut up?! You said that I am lazy, but who is lazier, don’t you know it in your heart?

You have been lazy at home for so long and you haven’t done any work, but you haven’t heard me talk about it. I went to beg for food and spent the whole morning on that, but you said I was just lazy? Where did you get a face to say this?”

Ma Yumei came out of the room and helped Li Lijuan, and said strangely, “Lijuan is taking care of me, so why is she called lazy? At least today she worked all morning, but you didn’t do anything. You wasted the time to earn work points, you’re definitely a failure.”

Zhao Weiguo heard the movement, he coughed lightly and said to Ma Yumei, “Okay, stop talking. What is the family arguing about?

Didn’t Xiulan go there just to try it and see if she can get some foodstuff? If she can’t, then forget it, but she doesn’t need to go back next time. It’s just one morning. If you feel distressed that Xiulan earned so little today, it’s better for Lijuan to work harder and earn a few more points to make up for it.”

In the past, Zhao Weiguo favored Li Lijuan and would never speak up for Zhao Xiulan.
