It was already night when the two returned to the house. Yun Yun was lying on the bed and had fallen asleep. Li Feng lay aside and watched.

"Why aren't Feng'er still asleep?" Lin Xue asked softly, fearing that she would wake her daughter up.

"I'm not sleepy. Mom, what are you doing? You're back so late." Li Feng climbed up and got into Lin Xue's arms.

Lin Xue reached out and hugged her, "Your grandfather had something to tell your parents, so he came back a little late."

Li Feng nodded, got out of Lin Xue's arms and got into bed, "Mom, I'm going to bed, good night."

"Good night." Lin Xue responded. Li Qi was quietly listening to the conversation between mother and son. Seeing Li Feng sleeping, he asked, "Xiaoxue, will you really agree to mother's request?"

Lin Xue walked over and asked in surprise, "Is there any problem?"

"No, it's just mother..." Li Qi scratched his head, "What if it goes too far?"

Lin Xue smiled and said, "I said I would agree if I could do it. As for whether I can do it or not, that's not up to me." Lin Xue secretly changed the concept at Wang's place and looked at him with a half-smile.

Li Qi said, "Master, you did a good job today. I thought you wouldn't lie to dad."

Li Qi lowered his head, "I don't want to lie to dad, but I have you and my children, and I have to think about you."

Lin Xue sighed with emotion and touched Li Qi's head, "Thank you."

Early the next morning, the Li family got busy and went to the fields to collect grain. The old man took the men and women of the family and walked into the fields with sickles and frames. Because Lin Xue had something to do, Li Qi was the only one in the third room.

Went alone.

After Lin Xue packed up, she took her two children to Guihua's house. She and Guihua first prepared the meals to be delivered, and then cooked some meals for Li Qi and Dazhu to deliver. After the meal, Li Qi drove

She drove an ox cart to deliver meals to the construction site, while she and Guihua took Li Qi's place and continued working.

When the family was separated, the old man gave the worst six acres of land to Lin Xue's family, and it was separate from the rest of the Li family. This was the first time in two lives for Lin Xue to work in the fields. Looking at his hands

I don't know how to start with the sickle in it. Next to it, Osmanthus fragrans is already cutting wheat expertly. Lin Xue observed carefully for a while, carefully imitating Osmanthus fragrans' movements. He grabbed a handful of wheat with his left hand and raised the sickle to cut towards the heel with his right hand.

This success gave Lin Xue great encouragement, and he happily attacked another piece of wheat.

Within half an hour, Lin Xue felt that she could no longer lift her arms. She threw away the sickle in her hand and pressed it with her left hand. Lin Xue looked around and saw that there were villagers working hard everywhere. After resting for a while, she continued to work.

Working hard, enduring the pain, Lin Xue vowed to buy more land next year, plant more grain, and most importantly, hire people to work when harvesting grain. She couldn't stand it anymore.

"Sister-in-law, take a rest for a while, I'm too tired." Osmanthus wiped the sweat on her head with her sleeves, piled the cut wheat together and sat on it.

Lin Xue also sat on it. Although it was a little uncomfortable, she still felt comfortable. Maybe she was very tired. "Osmanthus, why doesn't anyone plant fruit trees near us?"

"Fruit trees are difficult to maintain and cannot be used as food, so no one grows them." Osmanthus fragrans answered smoothly.

In this era of low output, having a full stomach is the most important thing. As for fruit, it is something only rich people would think of. Lin Xue rolled her eyes. Since no one is growing it, maybe she can give it a try. It has been so long since ancient times.

I haven’t eaten fruit many times, so I will go to town in a few days to see if there are any saplings for sale.

Lin Xue had a very fulfilling life these days. In addition to cooking, she worked in the fields. She fell asleep every day when she got home and fell asleep on the pillow. Finally, Lin Xue spent five days harvesting six acres of land.

Although the old man's place has a lot of land, there are also more people. It took less than three days to finish harvesting the food. They have been harvesting red fruits since yesterday. Everyone who laughed at the Li family for buying red fruits regretted it because it was made of red fruits.

Candied haws on a stick have been sold in the town for two cents a bunch, and there is an endless stream of people buying them. Every time they are put out, they are sold out.

On this day, Lin Xue and his family finished their own work and went to the red fruit field to help. Those who could climb trees climbed up to pick red fruits, while those who couldn't climb picked them from the ground. Lin Xue picked up a small box of red fruits and poured them into a sack.

, then take the empty frame and continue picking it up.

"Third brother and sister, you are finished with your family affairs." This was the first time Zhao had greeted her since the last time. Maybe he felt a little guilty, but there was a hint of flattery in his tone.

Lin Xue couldn't like this kind of person, but she could say she hated him. Zhao didn't do anything bad, so she smiled reluctantly and said, "Yes, I've finished all the work in the fields, so I came here to help you."

"Sister-in-law, my sister-in-law did something wrong that day. I hope you don't blame me. I didn't know what was going on with me at the time, so I said such words in a daze." Mrs. Zhao wanted to try her best to restore the friendship between her and Lin Xue.

It just doesn't work well.

"It's okay, Second Sister-in-law, I don't have a good memory. I have forgotten everything that happened that day." So the friendship between you and me has long been forgotten, Lin Xue said in her heart.

"That's good." Ms. Zhao breathed a sigh of relief and her tone became casual, "Third brothers and sisters, let's not talk about the past things. Do you think your restaurant is still short of people? The work here is done.

I have nothing to do, I want to find something to do and earn some pocket money for my children."

The restaurant is indeed short of people recently, but they can't ask Zhao for help. Once she goes, Zhang will definitely go, as well as the rest of the Li family. They won't be able to refuse at that time, so they can't say this. Lin Xue thought about it, "

Second sister-in-law, I can't take charge of this hiring matter, you have to ask Guihua, after all, she is the big boss."

"Okay, I'll go back tonight and ask if it's possible, our sisters-in-law can work together." Mrs. Zhao picked up the red fruits and walked away.

"Dad, come here and take a look. Why is there not a single red fruit on this tree? It's really strange." Li Fu's loud voice attracted everyone's attention.

Lin Xue looked over curiously. Sure enough, there were no red fruits at all, but the other trees nearby were full of fruits. The sight was indeed strange. Suddenly Li Qi climbed up, pulled a branch and studied it for a while, "Dad, this is

The red fruits on the tree have been picked by someone, maybe because of a thief."

"Third brother, how do you know it was picked by someone else? Maybe it was fruitless in the first place." Li Ping stood up and said.

Lin Xue felt strange in her heart. Why did Li Ping, who had always ignored things that had nothing to do with him, suddenly change his sexual orientation today? Looking out of the corner of his eye, Li Ping's eyes kept flickering, and there was an unnatural blush on his face. An idea suddenly appeared in Lin Xue's mind.

It popped out. Could it be that Li Ping stole the red fruit?
