After dressing up as a stepmother, I transformed the whole family into working in the fields

After a dreamless night, Qin Yao woke up naturally. It was still very early.

There was the sound of sweeping in the yard. Qin Yao stood up and opened the door to look out. Liu Jizheng was sweeping the ashes in the yard with a broom. The four brothers and sisters of Dalang were sitting in front of the open window, reading softly in the morning.

From the time they went to Fucheng to the time they came back, they had formed the habit of reading in the morning. The brothers and sisters never stopped getting up early to read every day, and would only sleep in during the two days during the week when they could rest.

Dalang usually doesn't sleep. He still has to practice martial arts, and he can't fall behind in basic skills in a day.

Erlang couldn't insist on this and often stayed away. In addition, Qin Yao saw that he was not interested and stopped caring about his martial arts practice, so it became a pattern of fishing for three days and drying nets for two days.

But even so, Erlang's physical fitness is better than that of ordinary children of the same age.

Qin Yao looked at Liu Jina, pointed at the cobwebs on the window lattice, and motioned for him to clean them up. She was afraid of disturbing the children's morning reading, so she did not say hello to them. She went back to the house to comb her hair and put on light clothes. Carrying the bucket, he walked toward the village well.

I have two large water tanks at home, which I took three trips to fill, as a warm-up.

After the water was filled, he went to the backyard that had been cleaned by Liu Ji and completed his daily exercise with Dalang who was already in place.

After doing this, Liu Ji's breakfast was just coming out. The family of six sat around the small low table in the courtyard, talking about today's plans while eating.

As soon as Erlang sat down, he raised his hand and typed an application, "Auntie, can we go play in the mountains later?"

Si Niang also imitated her brother's example and tried her best to raise her little hand, "A-niang, A-niang, I would like to go to the field with Sister Jinhua to dig wild vegetables, is it okay?"

Because it is not a rest day, even if the school has a long holiday and you don't have to go to class, you still have to report in advance when you go out to play.

This is a rule set by Qin Yao. She is not often at home. Sometimes she is busy in the factory from morning to dark. If her children are running around, she doesn't know where to find someone if something happens.

So it was good to report in advance. At least she knew exactly where they were playing and it was easy to find them.

If the process is correct, it’s no problem if you want to go out and play.

Qin Yao nodded and told them not to go into the mountains.

Da Lang and Er Lang looked at each other happily, and San Lang stood next to his two brothers and whispered: "Brother, take your bow and arrows with you."

Dalang nodded quickly, fearing that Qin Yao would hear it, so he immediately picked up the bowl and pretended to eat seriously. In fact, the three brothers had already flown to the mountains and forests, thinking about the joy of hunting birds and catching fish.

Liu Ji also wanted to go out for a walk. After a few sips of the meat porridge in the bowl, he put it down and raised his hand, "Madam, I plan to bring the cow back later, and then go to the town to check out the price of food."

Ever since he knew that Qin Yao wanted to sell grain, his heart became alive again. He thought to himself, the evil woman happened to be busy in the factory and had no time to go out to inquire, so shouldn't the matter of selling grain have to be left to him?

Ever since Qin Yao confiscated all his private houses while rowing dragon boats in Fucheng last time, his pocket was cleaner than his face.

Anyway, he was fed up with being penniless, and this time he wanted to dig out some of his private property no matter what!

Thinking of this, Liu Ji couldn't help but laugh heartily: "Hey hey hey -".

"Why are you laughing?" Qin Yao glanced at Liu Ji suspiciously.

Only then did Liu Ji realize that he had accidentally forgotten to manage his expression. He was busy restraining himself from talking nonsense: "It's been a long time since I saw our big green bull. I'm surprised."

Qin Yao groaned, she believed him.

But Liu Ji was going out, so he could help her with something.

Qin Yao instructed, "I am going to build a reliable fleet of vehicles myself. By the way, you can collect the information of the coachmen in several villages and towns near Jinshi Town for me."

After saying that, seeing Liu Ji's excited expression visibly collapsed, Qin Yao narrowed her eyes dangerously and asked, "Can it be done?"

If you can't do it, don't go out!

"The grass in the vegetable patch at home grows faster than the vegetables. There is also the rice and watermelon patch at home. We have to take care of them all. Fertilize if there is not enough fertilizer, pull out weeds if there is too much grass, and guard the canals to divert water when there is not enough water. There are many things to do. You are here, I think you should not go out, stay at home and finish the work in the fields today."

"No, no, no, no!" Liu Ji quickly grabbed the conversation and said that he knew how to do it, "Madam, your factory matters are top priority right now, so there is no room for delay. I will go and find out for you first. You can do the work in the fields anytime." , don’t be in a hurry, I’ll take care of it later.”

Qin Yao nodded, put down the bowls and chopsticks, went into the house and took the plan she had written, and went out to get down to business.

The father and son followed Qin Yao out. The family gathered around the old house for a while, each called their friends, and then dispersed.

In the past, the fields in Liujia Village were the busiest. At a glance, there were farmers busy in the fields.

Nowadays, the most lively place has become the stationery factory at the entrance of the village.

Before Qin Yao reached the stationery factory, she saw a group of people from a distance, under the command of Uncle Jiu, lifting heavy wooden beams to add beams to the new factory building that was about to be completed.

The factory drawings she sent earlier are now almost 90% restored.

In order to save time and facilitate workers' construction, the new factory building was built outside the original factory building, surrounded on all sides, and the original factory building was surrounded in the middle.

In this way, we only need to leave a passage between the original factory building and the existing factory building, and the two sides will naturally become a tight whole.

Fortunately, the site chosen for the factory was large enough to avoid the trouble of moving.

Of course, the land area has become larger and the rent has also increased a bit. Every year, two taels of silver need to be handed over to the clan.

Compared with the rent outside, it can be said to be quite conscientious.

Put it outside, the annual rent for such a large piece of land cannot be paid without twenty or thirty taels.

This time we adopted a long-term approach and could no longer be as careless as the previous factory construction. The team was led by a professional like Uncle Jiu. The main body used half walls of green bricks and half walls of adobe, with the entire roof covered with tiles.

When Carpenter Liu got the design drawings, he exclaimed that they were extravagant. But when I thought about it later, I realized that this was a wood processing site. I was afraid of water and fire, so I really had to use bricks and tiles just in case.

After Shopkeeper Fang delivered the wood, looking at the sun above his head that could bake people into phantoms, Carpenter Liu left two people to take turns guarding the wood.

One is to prevent fire, and the other is to prevent theft.

Each of these ready-made materials is worth a lot of money. Especially when there are chaos and chaos outside, you need to pay more attention to protection.

However, there is also a good aspect, that is, the factory is basically staffed by villagers, and the probability of wood being stolen is greatly reduced.

Now, thanks to the hard work of Uncle Jiu and others, only the last two processes of adding beams and roof tiles are left for the new peripheral factory building. It is estimated that it can be completed within two days.

In order to keep it dry and ventilated, each room is transparent on two sides, and only the storage warehouse has four walls.

Considering the increase in manpower, an additional spacious canteen was built.
