Giving Shen Baiqiu a meaningful look, Shen Zhiyao picked up some more and ate happily.
Shen Yueya pouted: "Brother is bad, but sister said it is edible."
"I..." Shen Baiqiu looked slightly embarrassed.
Shen Zhiyao ignored him and gave Shen Yueya a pair of chopsticks, asking her to pick up the fried chicken fungus and eat it.
"Sister, it's delicious!" Shen Yueya ate with her mouth bulging, feeling extremely satisfied.
Shen Zhiyao reminded her: "You can just eat the porridge."
"Yes." Shen Yueya nodded, then looked at Shen Zhiyao and asked cautiously: "Sister, can I give it to my brother?"
"Okay." Shen Zhiyao continued to fry chicken fungi.
Shen Yueya picked up one and handed it to Shen Baiqiu: "Brother, it's delicious. Open your mouth."
Shen Baiqiu blushed and ate the chicken fungus into his mouth.
As soon as you take it into your mouth, the sweet and crispy taste seems to be beating in your mouth. It is a delicious food that has never been tasted before.
After frying the chicken fungus, Shen Zhiyao made another pot of soup using the chicken fungus.
When everything was ready, she brought the soup and asked Shen Baiqiu to bring the fried chicken fungus, while the three sisters went to the main room.
In the main room, everyone in the Shen family had almost eaten. Smelling the special aroma that came with Shen Zhiyao and the others, they all stretched their necks to take a look.
Shen Zhiyao put the chicken fir fungus soup on the table, Shen Baiqiu also put the fried ones on it, and then consciously went to the kitchen to bring the three sisters' gruel.
"Do you want to try it?" Shen Zhiyao actively invited.
Shen Qizhu: "I won't even eat pig food."
The others didn't speak either, looking like they were going to die.
Even if a few young ones were eager to try, they were held down by Mrs. Yang and their mother.
"It seems that you are out of luck." Shen Zhiyao asked casually.
After Shen Baiqiu brought the white porridge, the three sisters immersed themselves in eating the chicken fungus, and their mouths were filled with delicious food.
In the summer, the Shen family always took baths in their own houses. The three sisters lived in a shabby bamboo house and there were no big wooden barrels. Bathing was not convenient at all, so after dinner, Shen Zhiyao simply boiled water. He and Shen Yueya rubbed their bodies.
Of course, while the two of them were scrubbing in the house, Shen Baiqiu was sent to stand guard outside.
After Shen Baiqiu also finished washing up, Shen Zhiyao rummaged through the box and took out a peach and handed it to Shen Baiqiu. Then she endured the smell of chicken feces and pig feces outside and lay down on the bed.
Shen Yueya slept between her and Shen Baiqiu. The little girl held her arm and fell asleep soon.
"Why did you come back?"
In the darkness, Shen Baiqiu's voice sounded.
"What's wrong?" Shen Zhiyao asked calmly.
Shen Baiqiu: "They said you don't want to come back."
"So is it because of this that you refuse to call me?" Shen Zhiyao stared at the roof and said, "Anyone who knows that he is not his parents' biological child will not be able to accept it for a while. I was really not very good at the beginning. I wanted to come back, but then I figured it out, my home is here, and there is Yue Ya and you here."
"We are a family, and I will raise you and Yue Ya well from now on."
"I can support myself." Shen Baiqiu said dullly.
Shen Zhiyao: "Take me to pay homage to my parents tomorrow."
Shen Baiqiu: "...Okay."
The night gradually deepened, and Shen Baiqiu also fell into a deep sleep. Shen Zhiyao couldn't sleep due to the smell. After silently reciting hundreds of sentences to break up early, Shen Zhiyao finally fell asleep.
On the other side of the Shen family, there were also Shen Yuan and Liu who had just finished a hearty exercise.
The two hugged each other and talked about what happened during the day and about Shen Zhiyao.
"Ms. sir, what do you think?" After Mrs. Liu told what Shen Zhiyao had done, she asked Shen Yuan's opinion.
Shen Yuan said: "Mother is her grandmother, she shouldn't disobey her like this."
"But what she said is right. When she came, she pointed out that the fourth younger sister and younger sister don't do any work. Only our second and eldest bedrooms do the most work at home. She doesn't swallow her anger like she did when Mingxue was here, which is good. of."
"Daughter-in-law, how can you say that? The fourth brother is a child and will be an official in the future. We will rely on the fourth brother in the future, so it's okay if the fourth brother and sister don't work. And the younger sister is a woman and she is young. Mother loves her very much. She, it’s okay if you don’t want her to work, just go to sleep.”
After Shen Yuan finished speaking, he fell asleep instantly.
Ms. Liu felt a little unhappy and thought silently: I think Yue Ya's sister lives a very wanton life and refuses her mother-in-law whenever she wants. That's good.
The next day.
Early in the morning, Shen Baiqiu got up and prepared to follow Old Man Shen and the others to dig in the ground.
Shen Zhiyao stopped him: "As far as I know, the rice grown in the fields will not be harvested for more than twenty days. What are you doing when you wake up early and wait until dusk?"
"Creating wasteland."
Shen Baiqiu told her that the county had conveyed the imperial decree to encourage villages to open up wasteland, and whoever created the wasteland would own it, and that newly reclaimed wasteland would not have to pay taxes for the first two years.
"You are so young, how much force can you use to open up wasteland? Didn't you promise me last night that you would take me to worship my parents today? Let's not go ahead with the matter of clearing up wasteland."
Shen Zhiyao frowned and continued to persuade: "And you see, you were busy all day yesterday, and grandma didn't even give you a piece of vegetable cake. You want the horse to run but don't let the horse eat grass. It's like a fool."
Shen Baiqiu knew what she said was reasonable, but...
"If you don't work, you won't be fed."
"Sister, who is Zhou Papi?" Shen Yueya, who woke up next to him, rubbed his sleepy eyes and asked curiously.
Shen Zhiyao brought her over and combed her hair.
"Zhou Bapi is a big bad guy in the book, who specializes in exploiting the people around him, a stingy and evil-hearted bully."
"That grandma does look like Zhou Papi." Shen Yueya covered her mouth and smiled.
Knock knock.
"Bai Qiu, it's time to dig the ground." Outside the room, Shen Yuan knocked on the door and urged Shen Baiqiu.
Shen Baiqiu went to open the door.
"Second uncle, I'll go later, I..."
"Let's go, your grandpa is waiting for you." Shen Yuanyuan pulled his arm, but he couldn't pull it.
Looking up, Shen Zhiyao pulled him.
"Second uncle, Bai Qiu has something to do today, so he won't go to the fields. Where is grandpa? I'll go tell him." Shen Zhiyao looked at Shen Yuan Yuan, her eyes refusing to refuse.
Shen Yuanyuan said subconsciously: "In the main room."
When the three sisters Shen Zhiyao, Shen Baiqiu and Shen Yueya arrived in the main room, almost everyone else was up.
Shen Zhiyao told Old Man Shen the reason.
"It's time to go and worship." Old Man Shen banged his pipe and lit it on his knees: "The worship will not take long. After the worship, come back to the fields."
Shen Zhiyao frowned slightly, her eyes flashed, and she suggested sincerely:
"Grandpa, if there is really a shortage of people in the fields, you can ask your fourth aunt or sister-in-law to work. Two adults are better than Bai Qiu, a young man and a half. Anyway, fourth aunt and sister-in-law are idle at home."
Little Yang immediately shook her head when she was pointed out: "I am a young lady, I don't go to the fields."
Shen Qizhu refused to do anything, as if he had heard some joke: "I am a woman, how can I go to work in the fields?"
