Chapter 192 - 192 Elder Miss's Prize
192 Elder Miss’s Prize
But soon Liu Yan became excited again. Her eyes were sparkling!
No wonder Elder Miss had sent her to watch out for Second Miss. There was something wrong with Second Miss!
She was hiding herself so well that she did not reveal her real temper until this day.
Elder Miss was so smart to have noticed this secret.
Liu Yan turned extremely happy. It was a great piece of news. She was going to take the information to Elder Miss.
Elder Miss was definitely going to bestow great prizes and praise her.
Elder Miss had told her that Second Miss would go back to her mother’s home on the 15th day of August. At that time, she would reveal everything to Elder Miss.
All she needed was to wait until that day.
When the rakes were ready, it was time for seedling.
That was something that needed to be done at the right hour.
The first section of the Shao Family only had seven mu of field, and their grain production was not so high. So, it took time and labor to finish the field planting.
Qiao Xuan ceased her work of lipstick, because Ms. Xu and Taotao as well as Qi were helping out with sowing seedlings in the field.
Ms. Fang was cooking at home, and Qiao Xuan was asked to take care of Shao Junyan and Shao Qing.
As for Shao Yunduan… he was busy studying in his room, whilst the other brothers were out in the field.
Second and third sections of the family again came to the door.
They first started to coax Eldest Uncle outside home.
As a result, at dinner time, Elder Uncle said, “Let’s take an early break tonight. We need to get down to work on the seedlings in the field. When you are done, you can help Second Uncle and Third Uncle as well. It is a very important matter that can’t be delayed…”
Ms. Fang rolled her eyes before he could finish his words.
The whole family showed no look of surprise.
They had been used to this kind of request.
But things were different this year.
“What? They don’t own our fields, do they? We made the rakes, why must we do the seedling work too? Oh does this mean that we can get the fruits when autumn comes? And we can pick the rice we want?”
“Are they so handicapped that they can’t move at all?”
Eldest Uncle frowned. “How can you say things like this? We talked about this before. We will forget our past grudges and start fresh. Why are you still thinking about this?”
Ms. Fang got even more annoyed. “Of course I am thinking about it. I am telling the truth! They betray us and then they badmouth us! Why must I forget about this? Why are you thinking about making us do all the work for them? We are also busy, they can do the seedling work themselves!”
“That is my brother, not someone outside the family!” Eldest Uncle stressed angrily, after being interrupted by Ms. Fang again. “You are behaving over the top. We can help them when we have time! Also, they will help us with seedlings too! What are you splitting your hair for?”
“We don’t need them! They can do their own work if they have time!”
