Chapter 154 The Daughter Sold 18
"Ge Yuanchun, why don't you go and pick grass for the pigs? All the children in our village who can run will go to the mountains to pick grass for the pigs."

"Ge Yuanchun, are you not feeling well? Are you always sick?"

"Zhaodi's younger brother is in poor health. He sleeps at home every day and does not work." said a little girl.

Tian Zhaodi, who was walking beside her and looked skinny, said with a sad face, "My mother said that my brother was born prematurely, so he has a bad health. The housework at home is heavy and my brother can't do it, so we three sisters do it."

Tian Lai Di, who was walking at the end, sighed and said, "Zhao Di, since your younger brother can't do it, we should do more. Didn't our parents say that your younger brother is the lifeblood of the Tian family and will inherit the family's legacy in the future? We can't let your younger brother get tired."

Tian Zhaodi's eyes flashed with disdain, but she said obediently, "Sister, I understand. I will work harder in the future."

"Yuanchun, please tell me, are you sick too?"

Several friends who were good friends with Qian Zhongxin looked at Ge Yuanchun with concern.

Qian Xiaosan hastily explained, "Don't make wild guesses. My sister is not sick. She does housework at home and doesn't have to go out to collect grass for the pigs. My aunt and uncle don't need the few work points my sister earns."

Gouzi, Qian Xiaosan's best friend, quickly agreed, "Ge Yuanchun is just like my sister. She stays at home to do housework and doesn't have to cut grass for pigs. My mother said that doing housework is more tiring than cutting grass for pigs, so my brother and I have to help my sister with the work when we get home."

Qian Xiaosan immediately felt distressed and looked at Yuanchun, "Sister, are you tired of doing housework? Otherwise, I will go to my aunt's house early tomorrow and help you with the housework, so you don't have to do it."

Qian Xiaosan believed that his sister was so sleepy because she must have gotten up too early in the morning and was tired from helping her aunt make breakfast.

Yuanchun refused with a stiff face, "No, Third Brother, you have the strength, so you should help Grandma with more work."

"I'm the one who lights all the fires in my house." Qian Xiaosan said proudly. "My grandmother said that if a man wants to marry a good wife, he should be diligent at home and help with housework. If he is a master who doesn't do anything at home and wants to be served by others, he will not be able to marry a good wife.

"Aunt, we are here..." A group of people arrived at the pig farm. Qian Xiaoer saw Qian Xiaoying at the door of the pig farm from a distance.

Qian Xiaoying was the scorer of the production team. During the first two days when Yuanchun arrived at the Ge family, she did not go to work and asked her sister-in-law to take her place.

Qian Xiaoying and her brother and sister-in-law are the few educated people in the village.

Qian Xiaoying was a junior high school student, but she dropped out after failing to get into high school.

Her eldest brother was a high school student. After failing the college entrance exam after two years of study, he went to work as a math teacher in the village primary school, and he was a formal employee.

Later, he married a Chinese teacher in the same school.

The school is located in the suburbs of Hangzhou, just two miles away from the village. The couple often take their three sons back to the village after work. They only live in the school when it is windy or rainy. Uncle Qian and Aunt Qian are both formal employees of the school. They applied for a two-bedroom, one-living-room apartment in the school.

During the winter and summer vacations or weekends, when the Qian couple was not working, they would take their three sons back to the village to work in the fields, and the work points they earned would be credited to old man Qian.

The Qian family has two people earning wages, five people eating state-funded food, and with the old hunter Qian Laotou around, it can be said that the Qian family lives the best life in the village.

But in the past two years, Hangzhou has suffered severe floods and food shortages. Even with their food coupons, state workers could not buy much food. If it were not for the work points that Old Man Qian earned to subsidize his son, daughter-in-law and their family, this family of five would have starved.
