Hmph,
Attracting bees and butterflies,
Heartless and throwing tantrums, stinky man!
The Ai Cao returned home.
As she went to the kitchen to cook, she kept muttering.
When she chopped the wild vegetables, she exerted force with her arms.
She swung the knife with clanging sounds. She wished that it wasn't wild vegetables on the chopping board.
It was Gu Dong, who was lying down.
What a playboy!
"What are you talking about? Who provoked you again?
You're venting your anger on the chopping board! "As soon as Gu Dong returned home, he heard an unusual noise coming from the kitchen.
Normally, other than chopping meat, who would grab the chopping board like this? What was this little girl up to again?
As soon as he entered the kitchen, he saw the Ai Cao's little face puffed up like a pufferfish.
Using so much force to chop the vegetables, those who didn't know would think that she had a grudge against the vegetables.
"None of your business!" The Ai Cao glared at him unhappily and said angrily, "Weren't you talking and laughing intimately with that female educated youth? Why are you willing to come back! "
"Hey, you.
Are you looking for a beating? Why are you being so sarcastic? Didn't she thank me for my help?
What nonsense are you thinking! "Gu Dong was already unhappy that he was stabbed by other men in the field today.
When he came back, he felt a little better.
However, when he got home, he saw the Ai Cao giving him a dirty look.
Suddenly, the displeasure in his heart emerged again.
"Help? When did you help her? "The Ai Cao's expression became better. She stopped what she was doing and looked at him curiously.
"Yesterday!" Gu Dong leaned against the kitchen door and said angrily with his hands crossed.
"Bang!" The Ai Cao waved her arm, and the knife in her hand unconsciously increased in strength. She glared at him and said, "When I fell asleep with a fever yesterday, did you go out to help that Duan Xue?"
Huff, huff. The Ai Cao felt that she was going to explode from anger because of Gu Dong. She had just been scared by someone in the morning and was still sick. He actually went to the girl to curry favor. Hmph, this person is too infuriating!
"What are you talking about? I met Qi Fang on my way out yesterday. He asked me to help an educated youth, not a Duan Xue!"
Although Gu Dong didn't think he did anything wrong, he felt that he was in the wrong when he heard the Ai Cao's words. It seemed that it was really a little wrong of him to leave his sick woman at home and help others do things. Therefore, even though he was angry, he still tried to explain.
"Isn't helping educated youths the same as helping Duan Xue? She's not an educated youth! "Ai Cao said stubbornly.
"Forget it, I'm not going to argue with you. You can think whatever you want." Gu Dong turned around and was about to leave.
"Hey, where are you going? I'm cooking, come over and help me with the fire! Can't you see that I'm busy? "The Ai Cao wouldn't foolishly let him go out after arguing with him.
Who knew if he would stroll over to the educated youths' place, or if he would be stopped by some girl or girl on the way and take away to help?
Sometimes, the more one cared about something, the more one would think about it.
The Ai Cao didn't realize that she was acting strangely today because she saw Gu Dong and the Duan Xue talking and laughing together. She felt jealous and sour.
"You're so nosy!" Gu Dong complained to her, but he still obediently turned around and squatted in front of the stove to help the Ai Cao watch the fire.
The Ai Cao saw that Gu Dong listened to her and came back to help. The corners of her mouth unconsciously curled up, and there was a trace of joy in her beautiful eyes. She happily cleaned up the chopping board and arranged the dishes for lunch.
Sometimes, a person's mood could be seen from their actions on the surface. Gu Dong looked at a certain someone, who was washing vegetables and digging them out happily, and his mood unconsciously improved.
However, she still secretly complained in her heart. She felt that Mugwort, this little fool, had such a temperament. Her temper came and went as she pleased. It was simply inexplicable. However, her anger dissipated quite quickly. She was not like some women who would waste half a month with their men because of some trivial matters.
There was a two-hour break at noon. After resting for a while, they continued to pull weeds in the field in the afternoon. Physical labor was just like that. It didn't require any skills. They just had to follow the rest of the team to look for weeds in the field.
When they came back from work in the afternoon, it was still early before dark. Gu Dong went to the mountains to look for food and cut firewood while the Ai Cao went home to cook. Then, they waited for Old Gu and Gu Dong to come back from outside to eat together. The day was almost over, and the sun was about to set.
After cleaning up the kitchen and waiting for her grandfather to leave, the Ai Cao boiled a pot of hot water and took a comfortable bath in the house. When she came out, she saw that the sky wasn't completely dark yet. She planned to take advantage of the light to wash the clothes that she just changed out of in the courtyard.
"You should hurry up and take a bath too. Bring the clothes out for me later." The Ai Cao took a basin to fetch water as she urged him to sit in the courtyard with her legs crossed. N? N? Gu Dong, who had nothing to do, was picking his teeth.
"Ah, okay!" Gu Dong was originally thinking in his heart. He thought that his wife didn't know how to live a good life.
His clothes had to be changed and washed every day. After a long time, the fabric would become weak and he would have to wear it less for a few years. However, when he heard that Mugwort was going to wash his clothes for him, he was instantly overjoyed and forgot all his previous thoughts.
"Life with a wife is so good!" Gu Dong finally admitted that he was living a good life with this wife.
"What did you say?" The Ai Cao raised her head and asked him. She didn't hear what Gu Dong was mumbling.
"Nothing. Go and wash your clothes!" Gu Dong tilted his head and blushed. F * ck! That was close. That little idiot almost heard it.
Hmph, I won't praise her.
Gu Dong bathed very quickly. The Ai Cao just finished washing one of his clothes and came back with the clothes that he changed out of.
"Leave it there. I will wash it later." The Ai Cao swung her arms and felt that they were sore. She straightened her stiff waist and planned to stand up and move around a bit.
"Hey, you're so tired from washing clothes. So delicate!" Gu Dong laughed at her.
"You're the delicate one! I've been bending over in the field for a whole day. Of course my waist and arms are sore! If you think I'm delicate, you can wash your own clothes! "The Ai Cao was not convinced and retorted.
Although there wasn't much grass in the field, it was still very tiring to bend over for a whole day to look for grass in the half foot tall peanut field. The Ai Cao glanced at Gu Dong and continued to swing her arms and twist her waist to loosen her body.
"Hey, you … …" Gu Dong looked at her as if she was an idiot. Then, he said in surprise: "Are you really stupid? You don't even know how to be lazy? "Now that they were working in a group, who would sincerely put in all their effort? Weren't they just fishing in troubled waters, doing and resting?
"Didn't Captain ask me to work in the field? What else can I do if I don't do it?" This was the first time in her two lifetimes that Mugwort was working in the field today. She imitated the original body's memory and worked in fear for the entire day. Even so, she was still afraid that the villagers who were working with her would notice that she didn't know anything.
She was mentally and physically exhausted. After a whole day, she even complained that she was tired.
"You … …" Gu Dong pointed at her. He was angry and amused at the same time. He didn't know what to say. Today, he was working in the corn field and didn't work with the Ai Cao. He didn't expect his wife to be so stupid. Oh, right. When she was in the Ai family, she didn't care about anything. She only knew how to work every day.
Damn! How could he forget about this. She was a simple-minded little fool to begin with!
"You're wrong!" Gu Dong excitedly stretched his neck and said to her. After saying that, he realized that his voice was a little loud and covered his mouth. He strode to the Ai Cao's side and pulled her arm to his side.
"What are you doing?" The Ai Cao was confused by Gu Dong's crazy actions.
"Shh, lower your voice. Come here and listen to me." Gu Dong looked at the entrance of the courtyard and didn't see anyone. Then, he moved closer to the Ai Cao's ear and continued to whisper: "Let me tell you. When you work with everyone, you can't work so hard. When you did that in the past, everyone praised you on the surface, but behind your back, everyone laughed at you for being a fool."
"Why?" The Ai Cao didn't understand. In the original body's memory, the Ai family taught her to do things like that when she was young. Moreover, the captain was usually very satisfied with her and never found fault with her.
"Do you know how to be lazy?!" Gu Dong stared at her. Was her brain damaged? Why couldn't she react?
"But, the captain is watching from the side." The Ai Cao's character was spoiled. How could she bear hardships?
When she was working during the day, she had thought about how to slack off. However, she was surrounded by villagers who were working together with her. There was even a team leader standing at the top of the field watching. Not to mention slacking off, even if she moved her arms a little, she would be discovered quickly. Then, they would stop what they were doing and stare at her.
"Stupid! Stupid! "Gu Dong tapped her head and scolded her as if he expected better from her. After scolding her, he pulled her closer and taught her: "Didn't you say that when people are looking at you, if they are standing straight and not working, isn't that being lazy? The captain is in the territory, so he won't be so strict. Everyone is the same. He knows the situation clearly and won't say anything. Also, the people beside you and you … "
Gu Dong continued to talk to the Ai Cao about seven or eight "little tricks" that the villagers used to work! There were all kinds of things. The Ai Cao was so surprised that her mouth opened slightly.
"This …. Isn't this the idea of a large group and a small group doesn't match?" The Ai Cao moved closer to Gu Dong and said softly.
。 When she came to this world, the deepest impression she had was that everything that didn't match the ideology was wrong. They had to be pulled out and beaten down.
"There's nothing wrong with it. It's all work. It's just that people are more relaxed and don't tire themselves to death. In the past, when you finished work every day, were you so tired that you didn't want to move at night? If you did that every day, it would be easy for you to get sick and die early. Look at yourself. You're so thin and small. You don't even have two taels of meat on your body and your bones are weak. Didn't you tire yourself out in the Ai family? "
This world …. The Ai Cao felt that she needed to understand it again.
Maybe some of the information that the original owner left her was wrong or biased and incomplete. She now felt the need to chat more with Gu Dong and get to know him better.
"Go to the house and rest." Gu Dong looked at the shocked Ai Cao and gently pushed her. Then, he pulled the stool next to the laundry basin and rolled up his sleeves to prepare to wash the clothes.
"This …." The Ai Cao reacted. She felt that Gu Dong's behavior was a bit unbelievable. Not to mention the Ai family, even in the village, if there were women in the family, the men wouldn't wash the clothes themselves.
"Don't worry. I guarantee that your clothes will be clean. Don't worry about it. Go to the house." Gu Dong thought that the Ai Cao was afraid that his clothes were not clean. He lived alone for so many years. He didn't know how to wash clothes and cook.
Now that the Ai Cao was exhausted, he felt that it was okay for him to take over. Weren't they all a family? Shouldn't they understand each other?
After that day, with Gu Dong's guidance, the Ai Cao found that not only was it easier for her to work in the field, but the people in the same team were also willing to talk to her. Everyone seemed to have a good impression of her.
What was going on? The Ai Cao felt that it was strange for a few days.
Later, after they became familiar with each other, she found out from the Zhou family's sister-in-law that her previous behavior of working so hard was not only stupid, but also annoying.
Because you're such a hardworking person, the captain will definitely compare you to the people around you who work with you. No one wanted to be known as lazy in the village. So, in order to not be too conspicuous, everyone could only look at her. In order to not be too inferior, they endured and worked hard.
Just like that, they worked in the field for six to seven days. The food that they exchanged for last time was about to run out. Gu Dong was anxious. Taking advantage of the day's rest, he asked Fu Jiu to go into the mountain again.
"You should stay at home. You have worked for so many days. Take a good rest. When I come back with a rabbit, I will make rabbit meat for you!" Gu Dong carried his basket and hunting tools and stood in the courtyard to the Ai Cao.
"Oh, be careful when you go into the mountain. Go, go quickly! "The Ai Cao waved her hand to chase him away. She was in a very happy mood.
The day before yesterday, her bathtub had been sent over. But usually, Gu Dong was at home, so she was a little embarrassed to take a bath. Today was just the right day. After he left, she would boil more hot water and take a comfortable bath. Then, she would have a good sleep. Just thinking about it made her feel comfortable.
