MTL - After Dressing Up As a Stepmother, I Transformed the Whole Family Into Working In the Fields

Chapter 534: His uncle

 An ox cart was driving on the road from Xiahe Village to Liujia Village. There were five people in the cart, an old lady, an old man, and a young couple with an eight-year-old son.

The autumn wind picked up last night and it rained in the middle of the night. The road was slippery and difficult to walk on. Fortunately, the road was widened a lot and walking was OK. But I didn’t want to go too fast for fear of the cow slipping.

This is not the first time the old lady has taken this road, but it is the first time in more than ten years that she feels that the road in Liujiacun is easy to walk.

“Mom, look at this road. It wasn’t that easy when we came here that year. Liujiacun is probably very developed now!” said the young woman holding her child in the car in surprise.

As she said this, she thought of something and felt a little uneasy. "I don't know if my brother-in-law is back. If he is not here, I don't know."

The woman didn’t say anything else. The child felt bored after sitting in the car for too long and began to cry. The woman threatened to beat her, but before she could do anything, she was glared at by her parents-in-law.

“Here, eat some candy and stop crying. We will be at your uncle’s house soon. There will be lots of good things for you then. Don’t be so impatient. If you still cry, I won’t bring you here next time!”

The old lady took out half a maltose candy from her pocket. She didn't know how long she had hidden it. It was stained by the lint on her linen clothes, and it looked like it was in really bad condition.

  But for children, it is a delicacy in the world.

 Taking the candy, he immediately stuffed it into his mouth, his crying face turned into a smiling face, "Oh, let's ask uncle for something good!"

When the child was happy, he said what the adults in the family had said most frequently in the past two days.

 The four adults in the car looked at each other and couldn't help but look forward to it.

Shunzi was busy in the factory very late yesterday evening. In order to prevent herself from dying suddenly, she and Manager Song took a half-day leave, planning to sleep enough at home before setting off to work.

I was riding the little donkey my family just bought this year on the road. I thought it was almost noon and I wouldn’t meet anyone. Unexpectedly, an unknown ox cart appeared in front of me.

He rode the donkey and sped up to catch up for a while. He turned around and looked at the man driving the bullock cart, and he immediately felt panicked.

 “Brother Mo?” Shunzi called out tentatively.

The other person turned around, not quite remembering his appearance. After thinking for a while, he asked him uncertainly: "Are you that friend of my brother-in-law's family?"

“Yes, I am Shunzi, brother, you still remember me.” Shunzi smiled and nodded politely to the old couple and Sister Mo in the car.

 In fact, the alarm bells are ringing in my heart, it’s over, it’s over, it’s about to end!

Shunzi suppressed the inexplicable panic in his heart and asked tentatively: "Where are you going, old lady?"

Brother Mo was very happy to meet an acquaintance and immediately asked Shunzi whether it was true that his brother-in-law had passed the national examination.

"We heard the news yesterday, and everyone in the family was very happy. We didn't expect that my brother-in-law, who is so generous, could be so successful. No, he came out of the house early in the morning and planned to bring the family's children to meet his uncle. Recognize someone."

Shunzi's suspicions were confirmed. Qin Yao's fierce eyes suddenly appeared in front of him. He was shocked and reminded with some embarrassment:

"Liu Ji is not at home. Only the village chief is. The child wants to see his uncle. If he goes there today, he will have time."

The Mo family was really stunned for a moment. After all, they had heard of Qin Yao's reputation, and now he was the head of the Liu Village. They didn't know how to be strong.

So if they really want to confront her, the Mo family will be very panicked.

 But before when Liu Ji was admitted as a scholar, they had wanted to come and have a look, but thinking of Qin Yao, they still had no idea, so they suppressed all the thoughts in their hearts.

 However, after hearing that Liu Jizhong was elected yesterday, the Mo family could no longer sit still.

If he hadn't taken a look, Liu Ji would have completely forgotten about their relatives. Then what benefits would they get in the future?

 Under the temptation of huge benefits, the Mo family briefly defeated their fear of Qin Yao and set off from home with their children early this morning. But Liu Jiren was not here, so they were really scared to let them face Qin Yao.

Just when Mrs. Mo and Mr. Mo were a little panicked, Sister-in-law Mo continued, waved her hands and said with a smile:

"It's okay, it's okay. I haven't seen my sister's four children for a long time. They are all here. I have to go see them, otherwise the children will think that my uncle's family doesn't miss them."

Shunzi glanced at the empty oxcart with only people on it, and his mouth twitched slightly. He had never seen anyone going to visit relatives without taking anything.

"Dalang and the others have all gone to school. If you want to see them, you can go to the Ding clan school and wait until the children finish school." Shunzi hinted again.

However, the Mo family did not answer his words. Old Mrs. Mo sensed his intention to persuade him to quit and secretly glared at him.

Shunzi was speechless. Since he advised the Mo family not to leave, he had no choice but to go over and inform Qin Yao in advance.

After saying goodbye to the Mo family, Shunzi pretended to take a step ahead.

 Riding a little donkey, we rushed all the way to Liujia Village. As soon as we arrived at the entrance of the village, we bumped into Qin Yao, who was grinding foreigners in the mill, and called her out.

Qin Yao is mainly responsible for picking up the work, while Li is responsible for keeping an eye on the mill. The two have a clear division of labor, so she can feel at ease and wait at the door.

Seeing that Shunzi's little donkey was rushing towards him without even stopping, Qin Yao took two steps forward and asked worriedly:

"What happened to make you so anxious?"

Shunzi waved his hand to indicate that it was not about the factory. He took a breath and said hurriedly: "Sister-in-law three, the Mo family is here. I just met them on the way. The old man and the old lady, the eldest brother and sister-in-law of the Mo family, also brought A boy."

"It seems that they came here because of my third brother's impeachment. I said that my third brother was not here, and I didn't persuade them to come back."

Shunzi thought to herself that he had persuaded her and was definitely on her side.

Qin Yao was stunned for a moment, she almost didn't remember which Mo family it was.

Seeing Shunzi's surrender, he laughed and said, "It's here as soon as it comes. Why are you panicking? I understand. Go and do your work."

“Then, shall I be busy?” Shunzi asked anxiously. Strangely, this smiling person made him even more panicked.

Qin Yao waved her hand with a smile on her face. Shunzi felt a little relieved. She turned around and picked up the donkey, and walked back into the stationery factory three times at a time.

“Madam, the dough is ready.” Mrs. Li called softly from inside.

Qin Yao strode into the mill and picked up two heavy burdens, "Dalang and his uncle's family are here."

Ms. Li was confused for a moment before realizing the relationship. She hurriedly looked at Qin Yao's expression. She smiled lightly and looked like she was in a good mood.

Ms. Li was even more unsure of what she was thinking and asked tentatively: "Are you ready to welcome it?"

Qin Yao nodded and said calmly: "Give me good food and drink, and send me away with five taels of silver."

She is the village chief now, and her reputation is very important. If she doesn't know how to leave after being given benefits, just wait for Liu Ji to come back and let him handle it by himself.

"By the way, let Xiao Laifu go to the canteen and talk to Yin Le later. After work, come home immediately and guard the door."

Li's eyes rolled and she could tell that this meant that the person was to be kept in the courtyard and not allowed to go out.

Without being able to go out, outsiders will not know how noisy the courtyard is.
