Chapter 5 The Hard-working Little Family
Before dawn the next day, Cheng Xiaolian was still dreaming of flirting with the female classmates in the class, who knew that someone suddenly kicked him behind him, and this kick woke him up, he rubbed his eyes and glanced behind him, only to see Zhu Fu looking at him with an angry face, and the only remaining sleepiness was gone.
"Uncle Fu, what's wrong?"
"When did I get you up yesterday?"
"Five watches."
"It's been two quarters of an hour since the fifth watch, why don't you get out of here and get to work?"
Cheng Xiaolian got up, hurriedly got dressed, and rushed out, Zhu Fu shouted behind him: "Go to the well first to fill the water in the kitchen tank, and then chop firewood!" Remember, don't make a noise, disturb the dreams of the nobles, and you will suffer when the time comes. β
Cheng Xiaolian went to the kitchen, saw two wooden barrels and a flat pole in the corner, immediately remembered the TV series in his previous life, understood the use of this thing, took it to the well in the yard, and then was stunned there, he had never hit the well water, and this set of tools would not be used at all.
There was a wheel axle on the well, and on the shaft was tied hemp rope, and at the end of the hemp rope there was an iron hook.
Zhu Fu coughed and stepped forward: "Look, I'll do it for you." As he spoke, he muttered: "The second master is really, why did you get a young master over." β
Zhu Fu hooked the iron hook on the handle of the wooden barrel, and then gently put it into the well, shook it lightly twice, and when there was water in the barrel, it naturally sank, and then turned the wheel axle vigorously, and after a while the wooden barrel reached the well, and then Zhu Fu grabbed it and lifted it out of the well.
"Be careful, you can re-fetch water if the bucket falls in, if you fall in, this well will be ruined!"
"Huh?"
"I mean, if you die in it, it's hard for the master to use the water that has killed people!"
Cheng Xiaolian sighed in his heart, knowing that the dog couldn't spit out ivory in his mouth, and he couldn't imagine that he was not as important as a well, thinking of this, he smiled bitterly in his heart, grandma has legs, how good it would be if she was born fifty years early, with her own blood, food and clothing are worry-free, and she can still go to the street to tease and tease the little girl when she has nothing to do.
Zhu Fu slapped him on the head when he saw this: "What do you want, work!" β
Cheng Xiaolian started his own small family life, the first trip the water was too full, but he couldn't lift it at all, he could only pour back half of it, and then swayed and carried it to the kitchen, who knew that he would be stupid immediately when he saw the big tank, with his own lifting method, he might not be able to carry it all three times.
Who knew that before he could complain, Zhu Fu was already shouting outside: "Little bastard, lazy inside!" Get out of here and get to work! β
Cheng Xiaolian was annoyed in his heart, but he didn't dare to say anything, so he hurriedly ran out and continued to carry water.
But after three or four trips, he was so tired that he couldn't breathe, Zhu Fu mocked on the side: "Oh, it's really the life of the young lady's body, such a big young man, why don't you work at home every day?" If you were my son, I would have strangled you to death, and it would be in vain to keep you at home! β
Cheng Xiaolian breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, but refused to give in, and continued to rush again and again, and when he got to the end, his body was already unconscious, just moving mechanically, fortunately, the foundation of this body is not bad, if it is a sick seedling, it is estimated that he can be exhausted to death.
Finally filled the water, Cheng Xiaolian lay in the yard and didn't want to move, his brain didn't have the strength to think of anything else, and at this time, Zhu Fu kicked his ass again: "Hired you to let you lie down?" Chop wood and go! β
Cheng Xiaolian finally couldn't hold back the fire in his heart: "I can't let people rest after working for so long!" β
"Hehe, you think this is your home! Since you have received this money, you have to work non-stop, otherwise why should you be given money? Hurry up and get out, or don't blame me for being unkind! β
Cheng Xiaolian staggered up from the ground, then went to the west side of the house, picked up the axe, and began to chop wood.
Who knew that when an axe went down, the firewood did not move at all, and Zhu Fu snorted: "I haven't eaten!" β
"I haven't eaten in the first place!"
"You can't finish chopping these pieces of wood today, you don't have anything to eat!"
Cheng Xiaolian can be regarded as understanding, although he stuffed money, but the money opened the door, so that these people would not embarrass themselves, but they had to do the work they should do well, otherwise they would be uncomfortable for themselves.
He dreamed of going out, raising his arms and pulling up a group of people to rebel, and then gathering in the mountains and forests, fighting in the south and the north, and finally dominating the world, but those are all foolish dreams, he can't even split the wood in front of him, why should others rebel with him.
Thinking of this, he took a deep breath and began to chop wood, chopping twenty pieces of wood, and muttered: "Miss Zhu, come out and see me, if you don't come out again, your best little family will be exhausted to death." β
Who knew that Zhu Fu appeared behind him like a ghost: "Hehe, miss, don't think about it, with your identity, if you dare to say a word to Miss, you will be beaten to death by the master, you still die of this heart, work hard, maybe you can go home and marry a daughter-in-law after five or six years." β
"Hey, don't look down on people, although I don't know how to invent anything, but I know five hundred years before, and five hundred years laterγγγγγγ"
Before he finished speaking, Zhu Fu slapped him on the back of the head: "Who told you to stop, hurry up and work, if you can't finish these jobs, there will be no lunch at noon!" β
"What about breakfast?"
"Bah, what kind of thing are you, you still eat breakfast, you see who can afford breakfast in poor families!"
Cheng Xiaolian was about to cry: "It's easy to have low blood sugar if you don't eat breakfast!" β
"Don't talk nonsense, it doesn't matter what low-blood is, people like us haven't had breakfast for thousands of years, and we haven't seen anyone starve to death!"
Cheng Xiaolian finally finished chopping the firewood in front of him, and was sent to the kitchen to help, smelling the fragrance of the food and swallowing several mouthfuls of saliva, but remembering that it doesn't matter if he steals food and lets people beat him, his reputation will be ruined, and he will have to let people say that he is a thief in the future.
Forced to endure and finally arrived at noon, after everyone had eaten, it was finally Cheng Xiaolian's turn to eat, although they were all cold leftovers, but for Cheng Xiaolian, he was already very happy if he stuttered, so he immediately ate it, thinking in his heart that he was really in the blessing and didn't know the blessing before, and he threw a lot of bad food, and now he thinks about it is retribution.
Cheng Xiaolian's family life began like this, not as good as he thought, and even after three months in the house, he had never even seen the face of the master, let alone wanted to get close to the young lady, he was very depressed when he thought of this, but after three months, his body was a lot stronger, and he was much taller than before.
