She gave birth to three daughters in a row, and was kicked out by her mother-in-law who favored boys

Chapter 278 Changing to Dongjia

Gu Qingqing looked up when she heard the voice, and saw Luo Meihua, holding a bowl of rice, following Niu Xiaoyang and Niu Xiaoguang to visit.

After the spring plowing begins, everyone is busy, afraid of wasting a moment of time, so let alone visiting each other, even eating is done in the fields.

At this time, Gu Qingqing was so happy to see them coming.

"Have you already eaten? What delicious food did you eat today? Xiaoyang, Xiaoguang, did you miss your aunt?" The first two sentences of Gu Qingqing seemed to be asking Luo Meihua, but also seemed to be asking the children.

As she said this, she stopped washing the vegetables.

Without Luo Meihua needing to reply, Niu Xiaoguang ran towards Gu Qingqing, propped up by his arms, like a running little penguin.

When he came to Gu Qingqing, he leaned towards her without any hesitation and said very close to her face, "Aunt, we are having rice porridge and scrambled eggs with shallots today."

After saying this, the whole little man smiled so hard that he almost turned into a flower.

"Wow, we're having eggs today. Are they delicious?"

Niu Xiaoguang wrinkled his nose and said in a timid tone, "It's delicious, but a little salty. I have to eat two spoonfuls of porridge for every mouthful I take."

This is how the villagers are, the dishes they cook are all heavy in flavor. This is also because they eat less vegetables, and they mainly eat them with rice.

Farm work is tiring. If you can't eat, how can you have the energy to work?

Gu Qingqing wiped her hands off her apron, stretched out her arms to hold the little man in her arms, and laughed loudly, saying in a very local way, "Beat the salt buyer to death for selling us such salty salt."

This trick is very effective for the children in the village. Look, it made Niu Xiaoguang laugh foolishly with his head tilted back.

"Xiaoguang, come and have dinner. Didn't you say you would have a good meal at Dahua's house?" Luo Meihua greeted Niu Xiaoguang, and then said to Gu Qingqing, "The two little ones said they haven't come to your house to play for a few days. They are making a fuss at home and insist on coming over, otherwise they won't have a good meal."

"That's how busy my family is. How busy is your family?" Gu Qingqing said as she stood up and picked up the bench under her butt and put it on the open space for Luo Meihua to sit on.

He turned around and went into the house to find a stool.

"I have just planted sorghum on the ten acres of land in the south of the village. Tomorrow I will go to other fields to plant some more grains." Luo Meihua proudly followed the arrangements of her family's fields.

After listening to her for a while, Gu Qingqing didn't see her mention rice, so she couldn't help asking, "You have a lot of land, including paddy fields, why don't you grow some rice?"

"Planting. With these two little ones here, crying for white rice every day, my father-in-law will definitely plant. He has reserved two acres of land for planting in two days. How about your family? Are you done with your work?"

"My family is simple, with just a few acres of land. I plant more than one acre of potatoes and two acres of rice over there, and I plant sorghum on the rest of the land." Gu Qingqing said as he raised his hand and pointed in the direction of Shangyang Village.

Then he added, "I planted more than one acre of corn outside the village. Now I only have four acres left in front of my house. I plan to plant some beans, sweet potatoes, peanuts and other grains."

Luo Meihua was focused on the fact that her family had few fields. She said with a little regret, "You have quite a few family members now. There are no landlords or officials around here. Otherwise, we could rent some land from them and plant some crops."

Gu Qingqing understood what she meant and smiled, "Forget it. The child's father is not at home. How much can I do on my own? The rest of them just work and I provide them with food. They don't eat here on weekdays."

After Gu Qingqing finished speaking, she saw the two children happily eating the porridge with a spoon each, and suddenly got up and went to the kitchen.

He took a pie the size of an adult's palm, cut it in half with a knife and put it in a bowl. Then he took a whole pie and left the kitchen.

"Stop talking. Come, have a try of the bamboo shoot and diced pork pie I just made." Gu Qingqing said as she held out the bowl in front of the two children, motioning for them to help themselves.

"Sister-in-law, look, I specially used a large bowl to serve a bowl of thick porridge, which is enough for the two siblings. There are many people working in your family these two days, so you should put it away and wait for them to come back to eat it." Seeing this, Luo Meihua hurriedly reached out to stop him.

Gu Qingqing turned her wrist and easily dodged her hand. "I made these two, and you can try them. If they taste good, you can learn to do it like me."

I just said that Gu Qingqing and her family have little land, and they don’t even know if what they grow is enough for their family to eat. And now she’s here asking for a free meal again?

Luo Meihua glanced at the greedy child and said simply, "Sister-in-law, I'll just take half of it, and give the rest to Dahua and Erhua."

"Look, you're still trying to make a living at my house, aren't you?" Gu Qingqing said as she stuffed two half-baked pancakes into Xiaoyang and Xiaoguang's hands respectively.

Luo Meihua didn't stop it, but she refused to accept it no matter what.

"They have almost finished eating. There will definitely be some left." Luo Meihua avoided her.

"Okay, if you want to eat, just get it yourself."

Then the two of them exchanged some caring words. After she fed both children and it was completely dark, she asked, "Are they not back yet?"

"It should be soon. I've asked Daxin to shout."

Almost as soon as Gu Qingqing finished speaking, they could hear the voices of several people outside. When Zhao Dong came back with a few brothers, he smelled the fragrance in the yard and laughed and asked, "Boss, what delicious food have you made again? The whole yard is full of fragrance."

"The boss's cooking skills are amazing. Now my biggest hope of the day is to have a good meal after work." Zhao Nan's voice followed.

"That's right, my sister-in-law's cooking skills are great, otherwise why would everyone in this town love the braised food she makes." Niu Yuzhu, who followed closely, interrupted with a grin.

Gu Qingqing heard the voice and shouted to the front yard with a smile, "It's all done. Hurry up and wash your hands. It's time to eat."

At the same time, he took the opportunity to tease Luo Meihua, "I didn't realize that Yuzhu is so attached to you."

Luo Meihua felt a little shy after being teased by her, "He must be reluctant to leave his two children here."

Gu Qingqing walked towards the kitchen while whispering to her, "Why, do you really have no idea whether he treats you well or not?"

Luo Meihua showed a happy look on her face, and refused to admit it, saying, "Who, who knows?"

Then, she leaned forward as close as possible to Gu Qingqing and whispered, "Sister-in-law, Zhao Dong used to call you by your name, why did he change to Dongjia now?"

Gu Qingqing started to take the bowl to serve the rice, while she said to her, "He said that he is helping my family with farm work now, and it is not appropriate to call me by my name, so he insisted on calling me master. I told them several times but they refused to change their ways. They insisted on this, so I just let them do it."

Gu Qingqing said this, but actually she had some guesses in her mind. It might be because Wuyan was not at home, so it would be a bit inconvenient for a group of men like them to eat and drink at home.

If we keep calling Gu Qingqing all the time, gossip will inevitably spread.

So they all just called her the boss, which was considered a balance.

Luo Meihua nodded in agreement, "That's good too."

Just when Gu Qingqing tilted her head to listen to what was going on, Luo Meihua teased her, "Boss, boss, you've become a landlord's wife!"

Gu Qingqing was amused by her, "Go away, go away, the word landlord's wife sounds like an old woman, I am still young."
