Chapter 9 The Second Mission

After hearing what Su Hehua said, Cheng Xiangju became angry and took Lin Su back. After returning home, Cheng Xiangju had some headaches again.

Looking at Lin Su standing there with a nervous look on his face, Cheng Xiangju thought for a while and said: "I will go to your house in a while and bring you some commonly used things. During the period when your father has not come back, you will

Stay here for the time being. Besides, your uncle's house is not enough. During this period, you can only live in the same house with me.

Also, during this period of time at home, be diligent and don't let anyone make mistakes. If you make any mistakes, even if you tell me about it, I will drive you home, do you hear me?"

Hearing Cheng Xiangju's words, Lin Su nodded obediently and said, "Miscellaneous! I understand. Don't worry, I will definitely be obedient during this time."

That night, when Lin Su's uncle and aunt came back, they found that there was an extra child in the house. Although Lin Su and her aunt were a little unhappy, Cheng Xiangju had always said the same thing at home.

Status. Lin Su, her aunt, still didn’t say much.

Fortunately, when Lin Su came over, she brought her luggage and food with her. By living here, they only provided her with a place to live.

Just as she promised, Lin Su obediently picked up her backpack early the next morning and went to the mountain to hunt pigweed.

After Cheng Xiangju finished cleaning up the house, Lin Su had already carried Pigcao back.

Seeing Lin Su coming back with a small basket of pigweed on her back, Cheng Xiangju felt even more satisfied with her granddaughter.

Sensible, obedient, and able to read people's faces. In comparison, Lin Sub is more lovable than other children in the family.

"Okay! Okay! Stop it! If you go out early in the morning, you won't feel tired. How can you, a kid, do so much work? Go into the house.

Seeing that you didn't eat much in the morning, I left a pancake for you.

I can tell you! This is just the first day you came here. I was afraid that you wouldn't adapt, so I kept it specially for you. From tomorrow on, you should eat well for me in the morning. Don't point at this.

If you do this, I won’t leave anything for you anymore.”

After these two days of contact, Lin Su had already seen that Cheng Xiangju was a mean-spirited old lady. Although Lin Su said something harsh to Cheng Xiangju, although she found it funny in her heart, she obediently agreed.

After returning to the house and seeing the warm pancakes placed by Cheng Xiangju in the pot, Lin Su felt even warmer in her heart.

Because of her own experience, Lin Su actually values ​​​​family relationships very much. Last time, her relationship with family members was relatively weak. In this life, in a completely unfamiliar place, she met such a mean-spirited old lady, and Lin Su actually still felt that in her heart

Very cherished.

"Ding! Today's task is to help Cheng Xiangju wash the clothes at home. Task reward: one junior wish-making qualification. Failure penalty: none."

Hearing the task issued by the system, Lin Su hurriedly stuffed the pancake into his mouth. Then, he ran out of the kitchen. Sure enough, he saw Cheng Xiangju carrying a big basin in the yard, preparing to wash clothes in the river.

In the countryside of this era, unlike later generations, every household had tap water. Most of the domestic water used by people in the village was brought back from the well at the entrance of the village.

As for washing clothes, everyone will put the clothes in a big basin and then go to the river in the village to wash them.

Seeing Cheng Xiangju carrying a big basin, Lin Su hurriedly took out a smaller basin from the side. Then, she ran to Cheng Xiangju and said, "Milk, you go back and rest. I'll wash these clothes."

It was still summer at this time, and the clothes were not too thick. Lin Su, who had lived alone for many years, had good living skills. Washing these clothes was of course not a problem for her.

Hearing Lin Su's words, Cheng Xiangju glanced at her and said, "Okay, I'm asking you to look at me a little longer during this period and find more work for yourself. But I'm not asking you to do all the work yourself."

I just went out to collect a basket of pigweed this morning and came back, and now I have to do laundry. How can you, an eight-year-old girl, have so much energy to do so much work?

You go back and rest for a while. After you have rested, go dig some wild vegetables in the woods and add some vegetables to the meal tonight. I don’t need you to interfere with the laundry."

After finishing speaking, Cheng Xiangju held the basin and prepared to go out.

Seeing Cheng Xiangju's actions, Lin Su hurriedly stopped in front of her and said to her: "Miscellaneous! Don't worry, when I was at home, I did more work than this. I'm used to it. Besides, what did you do yesterday?"

My back still hurts, so don’t do so much work today! Just leave these clothes to me to wash. Don’t worry, I will definitely wash them cleanly.”

Cheng Xiangju felt very comforted when she heard that Lin Su was still concerned about her health at this time.

However, she would not let an eight-year-old child really do so much work. After the two of them pushed and pushed each other, Cheng Xiangju really couldn't resist Lin Su. She could only share the clothes in the basin with

She drank some and took her to the river to wash clothes.

"Sister-in-law Cheng, come here to wash the clothes. Why did you bring your Sanya here today?" Cheng Xiangju had just arrived at the river. A woman who was already washing clothes by the river looked up at her and asked curiously.

Hearing the woman's question, Cheng Xiangju suddenly felt a little proud. She glanced at Lin Su, and then complained to the woman: "I just said that this child just went to the mountain to shoot a basket this morning.

Pigweed, before you could have a good rest, you had to come out with me to do the laundry.

I already said I don’t need her, I don’t need her, but this child feels sorry for me because I had a backache yesterday. I couldn’t persuade her no matter what, so she insisted on coming out with me and helping me wash clothes. You said she is just a child, come here.

If you can do something, it won't cause trouble for me."

After hearing Cheng Xiangju's words, she knew that she was showing off her children. However, the people around her were indeed a little envious in their hearts.

People of this era tend to be more reserved emotionally. Although the girls in the family are more capable and obedient, few children will express their concern for them in such a straightforward manner.

Of course, these people who were envious in their hearts surrounded Cheng Xiangju and gave them compliments.
