"Don't eat." Hu Yao wanted to swat his hand away depressedly, but he saw through her motives and saw a hint of warning in her eyes.
He seemed to want her to give up as soon as she was satisfied.
Hu Yao pursed her lips and took back her hand: "I'll eat it."
Jiang Han was satisfied and immediately opened a watermelon to feed her personally.
"Open your mouth."
"Why do you eat so much in one bite?"
"it's dark."
"..."
He was very interested and even found a spoon for her to dig in and feed.
Jiang Xiaochao blinked at them while holding a small piece of watermelon to chew on.
This meal was indeed cooked by Jiang Han. He roasted the remaining beef at home and simply sprinkled it with salt. It tasted pretty good.
The next day, Hu Yao woke up and her neck no longer hurt. There were still a lot of watermelons in the fields. The weather was hot, so she and Jiang Xiaochao went to pick a few, cut them up and gave them to the villagers who picked tea.
I don’t know who knew that Lin Zhaodi’s salary was two yuan. Gradually, word spread, and everyone knew that Li Zhen, Liu Jie and the others were deducting everyone’s wages.
The extra one dollar and two was more than half their daily wages.
Everyone felt more and more uncomfortable. While they were surprised by Jiang Han's generosity, they also hated Li Zhen and Liu Jie more and more, and couldn't help but go to them to argue.
Li Zhen was very confident. She said that she only gave them so much so that they could do it and get out if they couldn't. People were rushing to do it even if they only paid a dollar more. If they had the ability, just tell Jiang Han.
One yuan is a lot of money, but what makes everyone feel unbalanced is that the salary they are given is two yuan and two. Li Zhen and the others can pump water, but what is outrageous is that they pump so much, which is very unkind!
Everyone was so angry that they really wanted to go find Jiang Han.
Li Zhen was anxious and impatient. She quarreled with them for a long time and resented Lin Zhaodi and Hu Yaoji again.
It's all because of them that this trouble happened.
Liu Jie went out to look for someone, and now Li Zhen was the only one there. People gathered around her because of salary matters, and the expressions on their faces became more and more fierce, and they looked like they were about to take action. As a woman, she couldn't help but start to feel scared.
Hu Yao happened to see this scene when she was giving them watermelons.
When everyone saw her, they all talked about it to her.
With Hu Yao here, they don't have to go directly to Jiang Han.
"Li Zhen said that I have no control over the payment of wages to everyone, but I will tell Jiang Han so that everyone can calm down." Hu Yao comforted softly, with a shallow and gentle smile on her face.
The warm and friendly attitude and the sight of Hu Yao bringing them another watermelon somewhat comforted everyone's anxiety, while Li Zhen almost gritted her teeth.
"Jiang Han's wife has a good temperament. If she had been better earlier, how could Jiang Han leave these matters to outsiders?"
"That's right! With such a big face, he still has the nerve to say that he is a good friend, but he is lying to others! This couple is not a good thing!"
"I've heard people say that Hu Yao is a very good girl when she's good. It's a good blessing to marry Jiang Han. Jiang Han is also capable now."
"Li Zhen, that bitch, really thinks she is the boss. She puts on such a dead face every day. Who the hell is she? She is not the one who really pays us wages. She deserves to be unable to have children and cause natural disasters." There are so many things to do! People can’t do it, so it’s strange that they can give birth! Hu Yao hasn’t said anything yet, but she’s still polite to us big guys!”
"No wonder Jiang Han loves her so much. Such a daughter-in-law doesn't deserve anyone's love."
"..."
After Hu Yao sent the watermelons back, everyone started talking again, most of them criticizing Li Zhen, mixed with contrasting and praising Hu Yao.
Jiang Han's reputation is not good, but he is now everyone's rich man, so praising his wife is equivalent to praising him.
Their words were not taboo to Li Zhen at all. Li Zhen's face turned blue and white, white and blue again.
They had a bad relationship that day, and the tea-picking work was only a few days away. In order not to make things more embarrassing, Li Zhen gritted her teeth and gave them two yuan a day's wages.
But he refused to make up for what he had done before.
However, this barely calmed down everyone's anger.
Knowing that Li Zhen had raised wages for everyone, Hu Yao did not tell Jiang Han.
In fact, she said this deliberately in front of Li Zhen. It was easy to find out the amount of wages Li Zhen and the others paid everyone. Hu Yao thought how could Jiang Han not know, and he allowed Liu Jie and the others to do that? .
Even if she told him, how could he listen to her.
Hu Yao knew that her words were not as weighty to Jiang Han as others thought.
They said they were husband and wife, but she was just bought by him from Hu Guifen with money. He had enough say over her and could come and go at a call.
Thinking of this, Hu Yao lowered her eyes, not knowing what she was thinking.
"Mom, are you okay?"
Jiang Xiaochao's cheerful little voice drew her out of her thoughts.
Hu Yao raised her eyes, raised a smile, and filled him with a glass of watermelon juice: "Okay, drink slowly towards the morning."
She looked at his young and beautiful face and her heart softened.
She still has him.
She also has a son who is very good and protective of her.
"What do you want to eat later?" She spoke to him in a gentle voice and cleaned the house again.
Now that she is well, she no longer needs Lin Zhaodi to help with these small tasks. She can do them herself and clean them up more neatly.
The father and son were still a little sloppy, and Jiang Xiaochao didn't know if he learned from Jiang Han. He took off his clothes and threw them around, and she had to pick them up for them.
In addition, there are many trivial things that still need to be finished.
However, Jiang Xiaochao watched Hu Yao busy at work and knew that he would get rid of these bad habits obediently and consciously, without Hu Yao having to tell him.
On the contrary, his father took it for granted.
He seemed to enjoy watching Hu Yao do these things for him.
Jiang Han went out with Song Sikai early in the morning and didn't come back for lunch. He never reported his itinerary to Hu Yao. Hu Yao didn't know if he would come back, so she cooked his meal anyway.
Since he didn't come back, there was naturally a lot of food left.
When he came back in the evening, he saw that Hu Yao was eating leftovers from lunch, but he took her bowl and exchanged it with her.
Hu Yao paused.
"See what I do, I'll eat yours." Jiang Han picked up the rice naturally.
"I've eaten it before." Hu Yao's hand holding the chopsticks did not change.
"I haven't eaten enough saliva. Why are you so pretentious?" Jiang Han glanced at her.
"..."
It seems true. He always bites her mouth, and he also snatched the watermelon from her before. What is there to worry about.
Hu Yao lowered her head and continued eating.
Jiang Xiaochao didn't notice their behavior. He was the most active in eating. His head was almost buried in the bowl. He was so focused that when he raised his little face, there were still several grains of white rice on his cheeks.
He didn't even notice it, but he kept moving and biting the food in his mouth.
