Chapter 467 You Aren't Even as Knowledgeable as Dogs!

ages are kept half by ourselves." 。"Yes, at the end of the year, the mother-in-law still gives us a bonus. 。My mother said, since we are all married with children now, we can't go without money. 。"L...He didn't want to talk to the Bai family but walked straight over to Li Laosan and Wu Laojiu, laughing with them.

The villagers were extremely surprised and finally learned that the Bai family had also leased ten acres of land.

Now they are completely helpless, and can only stand there with sullen faces...

Soon, Li Lao San and Wu Lao Jiu took the Tian family and Bai family to the field.

The daughter-in-law of the Tian family and the daughter-in-law of the Bai family helped Wu Jiubao settle her things. After chatting for a while, they happily came out from the courtyard.

The daughter-in-law of the Tian family spoke up and pointed to two young daughters-in-law who were good friends with her, saying: "Quickly go home and get your water buckets, poles, and dippers, and come with us to the field to water the seedlings. We need to be back before dark. Each day's work pays twenty wen."

Then the two young daughters-in-law immediately became happy and stepped forward to ask.

The onlookers listened with eager eyes and buzzed with excitement.

The daughter-in-law of the Tian family smiled even wider and chatted with everyone for a while longer.

The daughter-in-law of the Bai family was not to be outdone, and also supplemented it from time to time.

After a while, everyone knew that ten acres of vegetables were to be planted outside the village to supply the academy's dining hall.

Although they didn't get the farmland, just thinking about how many ways there were to make a living on ten mu of vegetable land made the villagers excited.

Planting, harvesting, watering, weeding, everything needs manpower!

Standing guard at the front door, convenient for coming and going, and not tiring work, with a daily wage of twenty cash.

Even working just five or six days a month would be enough to buy some kerosene and coarse salt for the household.

Thus, the women all started expressing their loyalty. One claimed she was efficient at work, another boasted about her strength, and almost caused a riot.

Wu Jiubo listened in the courtyard, and her heart felt much calmer...

Let's not talk about how lively the fields are, let's just say that all ages of the Li family had finished their breakfast and went to the school cafeteria.

The dining hall is located in the southwest corner of the academy. Perhaps it was to facilitate the transportation of firewood, rice, vegetables, this place has a separate corner gate.

It was previously locked tight, but now the key has been given to Li's family.

This way, I wouldn't have to walk through the main gate every time, or cross the whole courtyard...

It's called a dining hall, but actually it consists of five main rooms facing north, with three west wing rooms attached.

The east was open, with just a simple fence erected.

The largest of the five rooms was used as a storeroom, located on the westernmost side. It housed daily provisions and miscellaneous goods.

The second room was the kitchen. As soon as you walked in, there were two rows of large stovetops, with seven or eight big pots set up. There were also two smaller stovetops and a small earthen stove.

There is also a row of cutting boards in the middle of the house, used for chopping vegetables.

A small well was dug in the innermost corner, and two pools were built beside it with bluish-gray stones. Each pool had an outlet connected to a clay pipe as thick as a bowl, directly discharging sewage into the gutter outside.

This way, washing water, washing vegetables, and washing dishes, finally going out in order, has become a truly efficient assembly line, clean and convenient.

The remaining three houses were knocked through, with more than twenty sets of tables and chairs placed in them. Each set of tables and chairs can accommodate eight people, able to hold over 200 people dining at the same time.

The last house, originally the workers' quarters, is now empty and faces the dining hall wall. They are currently working on the doors and windows.

It's just begun, so things are a bit messy. It's still too early to tell what the final shape will be.

Three outside rooms are also under construction, one of which is building a kang.

Da Zhuang and Sun Er Ge, hands full of mud and sweat dripping from their brows, were laughing brightly.

Old Li held her granddaughter's hand as they strolled around the dining hall. She reminded them not to tire themselves out, that their tasks wouldn't be finished in a day...

Jia Yin knew they were aiming to finish construction and move in as soon as possible.

These three rooms are just enough for the two families and Wu Sanniang's family to each have one.

In the daytime, they will take care of the students' meals and at night, they will sleep here. At night, they will take turns keeping watch over the warehouse.

The grandfather and grandson turned around several times, and finally Li Laosan came back. Li Lao then called him to meet the dean.

Lady Li, a high-ranking noblewoman, was more than enough to handle the situation. Adding Princess Jia Yin to the mix would be too grand an affair.

Then, Jia Yin was given to He MaMa.

Seeing Granny and Uncle Three walk away with their prepared flowerpots, Jia Yin coaxed Grandma He to take her to a more distant place "to explore".

Before, she came to the academy several times, but she didn't have a chance to go around.

Before He Mama could respond, a sharp crack suddenly echoed from inside the room.

She turned to run inside, but was stopped by Grandma He who insisted on carrying her before they entered the dining hall.

Tao Hongying and Zhao Yuru's faces were grim. Opposite them stood four people, two men and two women.

A large earthenware basin filled with a heap of dirty dishes sat on the table in the middle.

Tao Hongying grabbed one and slammed it hard at the feet of several people, scaring them so much that they jumped and started yelling.

One stout woman with a round face and a loud voice shouted, "What are you bragging about Just because you're the host doesn't mean you're superior! We didn't sign any death contract, so we're not your slaves!"

Another woman also said, "Yes, we all said it was because we weren't feeling well that we delayed our work. If you are unhappy, just say so! Why smash bowls and plates for everyone to see"

Tao Hongying sneered and replied, “So you’re not blind after all You can actually see that I dropped the dishes! Then why didn’t you see how dirty they were!”

"Three whole days, and you let yourselves wash a whole basin of dishes, yet you've washed them like this You dare to run here and complain now Who gave you the face!

"

"To be blunt, even the dogs in our village would lick better than what you've done!"

“Then you go walk the dog, what are we supposed to do We don't even want to work!” The fat woman rolled her eyes angrily, looking arrogant and fearless.

Tao Hongying wasn't afraid at all. She retorted fiercely, "Sure, you can bring your dog over. After all, my family always has leftover food and we feed the dogs plenty. We could have them do some work, they'll definitely listen. They might even wag their tails while working!"

But what about you You took the wages, but you don't want to work. What are you thinking Don't tell me you don't even know how to behave like a dog!

"You, you're the one who doesn't know how to behave!" the stout woman exclaimed, stamping her feet in anger.

Tao Hongying glanced at her, coolly replying, "What's the rush You understand things better than a dog, right"

The plump woman thought she had won the argument, just about to be happy, but then felt something was off.

Then, looking at Zhao Yuru across from her, and her three companions all with strange expressions, she finally reacted and became completely enraged.

The stout woman rolled up her sleeves and was about to strike, "You little wretch, you dare curse me!"

To her surprise, Tao Hongying was even faster. Before she could even react, Tao Hongying slapped her across the face, leaving her seeing stars!

"Who are you calling a lowlife My husband is the commander of the port's guard, patrolling day and night, fighting to the death with barbarians just to protect people like you" Tao Hongying kicked the obese woman in the belly again, sending her sprawling to the ground.

The other three wanted to help, but upon hearing the words "gatekeeper," they hesitated.

While she was busy, Tao Hongying had already grabbed a broom and stepped on the woman, sweeping it open with a clatter.

"You bunch of idiots! You have eyes but can't see, your heads are filled with lard! Whoever pays you is the master!"

“You're taking our money and acting like you're entitled Think we need someone like you around here We don't need you! Our food would have more space, and our silver wouldn't just sit there gathering dust!"

"I've had my eye on you last night, and you dare to bully my third sister-in-law For so many years, I haven't dared to argue with her, who do you think you are!"
