Become a burden in a period novel

"There are so many things!" Zhou's father was helping his daughter move the package into the house, so he naturally knew how heavy the package was.

After opening the package, I saw small bags of things inside, including chestnuts, peanuts, some refined rice, and brown sauce in canned bottles.

"These peanuts are good." Zhou's mother took a liking to the peanuts in the bag at first sight. Each peanut was very plump and cleaned. A bag like this would be enough for their family to use during the New Year.

"This chestnut is also okay." Father Zhou picked up a chestnut and peeled it directly. He likes to eat raw chestnuts.

There are some dried vegetables at the bottom of the package. This bag is enough for their family to eat for a long time.

"You are a really honest classmate." It must have taken a lot of effort to buy such a big bag.

Father Zhou knew how much money Qin Wangshu earned from selling his job. That money should last for a long time in the countryside, but if it only came in but never went out, it probably wouldn't last long.

"Alas, Wangshu just doesn't know how to live. I have to write a letter to talk about her!" Zhou Hongying sighed.

"Okay, you're not much better. Here's a letter, do you want to take a look first?" Zhou's mother carefully found the letter in the package, took it out and handed it to Zhou Hongying.

"Then Mom and Dad, please pack up these things. I'm going to read the letter!" Zhou Hongying took the letter and ran to her room. She wanted to see what Wangshu had said to her.

The weather was getting colder and colder. When the first snow came, Qin Wangshu was already wearing the cotton-padded jacket made for her by Aunt Luo.

A few days ago, she received a letter from Zhou Hongying, in which Zhou Hongying told her about the current situation of the Wang family.

Qin Fang is really pregnant and she is no longer working. She is not young anymore and it was not easy for this child to come, so she is extremely careful.

She directly retired internally and gave her job to Wang Li, who had never found a job. Wang Li took over Qin Fang's job and naturally had nothing to say to Qin Fang.

Moreover, she knew how much her father valued the child. Although she felt very bitter, she still endured it. Fortunately, she had a job and no longer had to ask her father for money.

Later, Wang Jianguo kept asking Wang Li to take care of Qin Fang. She couldn't stand it anymore and moved directly to a single dormitory in the school.

When Qin Wangshu saw in Zhou Hongying's letter that Wang Li had moved to the dormitory and Qin Fang had been staying at home to take care of her pregnancy, he almost knew what had happened there.

Without Qin Wangshu's unpaid labor, Qin Fang would not be able to continue her job as the perfect stepmother.

Qin Fang was a person who loved to enjoy life. Before she married Qin Wangshu, their father could be said to have lived a life of luxury.

Later, she married Wang Jianguo and was a good wife and mother for several years, but in fact, most of the work was done by Qin Jingchu and Qin Wangshu.

Wang Li never had to work, and because Qin Fang had never given birth to her and Wang Jianguo's child, she had been trying to please Wang Li.

But now it’s different. Qin Fang has become more confident and naturally can’t continue to let Wang Li just enjoy herself at home.

Without the "long-term worker", conflicts naturally arose among those in the Wang family who did not work, especially since there was a pregnant woman among them.

Moreover, Qin Fang has to give birth to and raise a child, and she has lost her job, so Wang Jianguo has to pay for all this money.

Wang Li has reached the age where she should have first met her husband in the original novel at this time. By then, Wang Jianguo will have to pay for Wang Li's dowry.

I just don’t know which side Wang Jianguo will choose.

When Qin Wangshu opened the door, he saw a patch of white. Aunt Luo had covered some of the vegetables in the garden with straw a few days ago. Now there was a thick layer of snow on the straw.

"Come in and warm up." Aunt Luo heard Qin Wangshu open the door.

"Auntie, I'm not cold." Qin Wangshu showed Aunt Luo the cotton jacket she was wearing.

She has already put on her new cotton-padded jacket, and her body, which has been well-nourished by the space well water, is not as afraid of the cold as before. Of course, it is also possible that this body has been accustomed to the cold before, so it is not afraid of the cold.

"Oh, you finally put on your cotton jacket. I thought you were reluctant to wear it. There is hot water on the stove. You can use it to wash." Aunt Luo teased.

"Aunt spent so much effort making a cotton-padded jacket for me, so naturally I can't bear to wear it." Qin Wangshu replied with a smile, then picked up his washbasin and went to the kitchen to scoop hot water.

The black market opened again a few days ago, and Mengge asked someone to contact her, so she sold another batch of eggs and some hens.

Some of the chestnuts were also given away. Now there are several chestnut trees planted in Qin Wangshu's space, and a batch of chestnuts will mature every once in a while.

Of course, if you don't use space well water and just let it grow in the ground, it will probably take one month to mature. If you use well water, it will be faster.

So when Qin Wangshu felt that she had enough chestnuts, she stopped pouring water from the space well under the chestnut tree and replaced it with water from the stream.

As for food, Qin Wangshu has no shortage of it now, and the food in the space is more delicious, so Qin Wangshu often exchanges the rations she and Aunt Luo eat for space products.

But now she can only exchange for some sweet potatoes and corn. After all, Qin Wangshu has harvested several batches of rice, but she has no way to husk it, so she can only put the rice in the warehouse.

After Mengge started doing business again, Qin Wangshu got a stove and a small pot from him. Together with the clay pot she bought, she can now cook in the space.

This stove doesn't burn coal. Qin Wangshu has a rural household registration and there is no coal supply. This stove mainly burns wood.

After getting the stove, Qin Wangshu killed a chicken and stewed the soup. It must be said that the chicken raised in the space is really delicious. No wonder it is so popular. Brother Meng keeps asking for more.

After Qin Wangshu finished washing up, he went to the kitchen and sat under the stove to watch the fire. There was nothing to do on a snowy day, so Aunt Luo cooked a meal that took a little time.

Qin Wangshu watched the fire and chatted with Aunt Luo.

At this time, all the educated youths except Qin Wangshu have moved back to the educated youth center. The educated youth center is very lively every day.

Although Dong Shaofang felt more at ease after returning to the educated youth point, she still envied Qin Wangshu.

Many times she couldn't help but look at Qin Wangshu, but unfortunately, Qin Wangshu didn't seem to like her very much, otherwise he wouldn't have treated her like this.

The house at the educated youth camp had just been built and was still very solid. It was also spacious, so she had no reason to move out. Dong Shaofang didn't understand what was so good about Qin Wangshu and why everyone liked her so much.
