Chapter 177 Are You Dating?
Lan Xin has been very busy these days. The more time passes and the more rice there is, the harder it will be to find some free time.
The rice grains piled together need to be spread out and dried quickly, otherwise they will be stuck together and easily sprout. Once they sprout, all the rice will be wasted.
Moreover, at the end of August, the weather seemed to have reached menopause, with unpredictable weather and occasional sun showers.
It only took a few minutes, but Lan Xin had to busy herself with harvesting rice during these few minutes, for fear that the rain would wet the rice.
After the rain stops, the ground is cleaned and dried and the rice is poured out again to continue drying.
After a few days, Lan Xin felt that she had lost 10 pounds.
With the help of Lan Xin's tea eggs and soda, the cousins who helped Lan Xin harvest rice worked very quickly, as they were afraid that the work would not be worth the expensive wages and they would not be able to accept them.
Five people worked together from morning to night, and it took them a week to harvest all five acres of land.
Lan Xin was shocked, and He Yaohui was even more angry. He dropped his housework and came to help Lan Xin, but he ended up not speaking a few words to Lan Xin in all these days.
There was also a black-faced old man staring at him and finding faults with him from time to time. He Yaohui even wanted to quit his job. When had he ever suffered such grievances since he was a child?
But thinking about whether his goal had been achieved and Lan Xin's daily salary of one yuan, he gritted his teeth and continued to work.
However, he had to think of a solution and couldn't continue working so hard.
So that afternoon, Lan Xin, who had been busy all day, was carrying a load with heavy rice on both sides, and she was carrying the dried rice back to her family's warehouse.
The rice that was dried on the first day has dried up after so many days and can be collected and replaced with new rice to continue drying.
On the first day, Lan Xin was staggering while carrying such a heavy load of rice, but unexpectedly, she was able to walk briskly in just a few days.
He really has the physique of an ox or a horse!
Lan Xin silently swore in her heart that next year, next year she would rent out the land or hire people to harvest all the land. From raising seedlings to harvesting, and then to drying them, she would find people to do it all!
But now, you have to harvest your own land and your own crops.
This is really going to tire the child out.
Every night when she gets home, Lan Xin would use a needle to prick the blisters on the soles of her feet and soak her feet comfortably.
Yingying and Yueyue are also very sensible. They cannot do heavy work, so they just follow Lanxin and do small chores within their ability.
Whenever Lan Xin sees her two daughters lowering their heads and working obediently, her heart softens.
When they go home to rest at night, Yingying, Yueyue and the others would massage Lanxin with their fists. Although it couldn't completely relieve Lanxin's fatigue, it still made her feel satisfied from the bottom of her heart.
Daughters are still better!
When Lan Xin was carrying her load and passing by the banyan tree at the entrance of the village, someone stopped her and started gossiping.
"Lan Xin, Lan Xin, I want to ask you something." One of the fat aunts greeted and called Lan Xin.
Lan Xin turned her head and looked. This person was not a stranger. She was a famous gossip in the village. She didn't expect that during the busy farming season, she still had time to gossip here.
Lan Xin felt so tired that she couldn't move and didn't want to open her mouth. Compared with them, Lan Xin really admired them.
Being pulled by the basket, Lan Xin couldn't run away. She could only bend over and put the things down, then lean on the carrying pole, breathing heavily, and asked in confusion.
"Aunt, what's the matter? I'm very tired and don't have time to continue chatting with you."
As Lan Xin spoke, she stretched out her hand and waved the hot air to cool herself down.
The gossiping women looked at each other with winks and gave Lan Xin a mysterious smile.
"Hey, what you said, let me ask you something secretly, is something good about to happen?"
"Tsk tsk tsk, I always say that it's not easy for a woman to live alone. The busy farm work can make a woman exhausted. It's better to have a man at home!"
"That's right! Lan Xin, don't you think this is right?"
Lan Xin was completely confused. She didn't understand why these people were talking to her about such meaningless things.
She was so tired that she didn't want to use her brain anymore, so she just asked directly.
"Aunts, I'm too tired to think about it anymore. Just tell me if you have anything to say, and don't ask riddles."
After hearing this, she raised her eyebrows and glanced at Lan Xin. What is she planning?
Not shy at all? Saying it out loud like this, could it be that good things are about to happen?
Thinking of this, she said with confidence: "I told you that you have been married once, so you should be honest. It is boring to be secretive. I will just ask you directly, when can I have a drink at your wedding?"
Having said this, she shyly patted Lan Xin's arm, looking very bashful.
Lan Xin was shocked. She thought her ears were broken. Otherwise, what did she hear? What wedding wine? How could she not know that she was drinking her own wedding wine?
She found a ghost to marry and had a wedding banquet.
"What do you mean by aunt, don't you like wine? I don't understand."
When the women heard Lan Xin's words, they gave her a cold look.
"I was just praising you for being honest, why are you being so shy now?"
"That's right, you're still as shy as a grown girl." A skinny sister-in-law glanced at Lan Xin and said sourly.
Lan Xin was speechless, what was she saying was irrelevant, "Aunts, I really don't understand what you are talking about, what kind of wedding banquet is this, I didn't have such a thing."
"You are lying to me again, aren't you? There is no such thing. He Yaohui is not even related to you, but he came all the way here to work for you. Isn't that interesting?"
"I've been working on this for so many days. If this isn't something good about to happen, then what else could it be?"
As they said this, these people curled their lips. They were all from the age of being young girls and didn't understand that if a man who is not related to you comes to show his affection to you, he must be interested in you and want to date you.
And the fact that Lan Xin kept him doing work for so many days clearly showed that they were attracted to each other and good things were about to happen.
But Lan Xin is still here talking nonsense and saying she doesn't know. Humph, so pretentious.
As soon as she heard the name He Yaohui, Lan Xin immediately connected everything together.
My goodness, she thought He Yaohui came over because he was attracted by the one dollar salary that day, and he rushed to do the job to prove himself.
Who knew this was a hardcore performance for finding a partner?
Lan Xin said that she had never experienced this before, so how could she know?
Even when encountering similar things, it was when seniors in college helped carry luggage and told their purpose after moving the luggage. Unlike He Yaohui, he didn't say a word, just lowered his head and worked hard, and quietly put the wages in his pocket.
