After becoming a stepmother,I transfered the whole family into farming

Chapter 34 No Morals

Qin Yao washed her hands and wiped her face before entering the house and sitting down.

Seeing a large plate of greasy fried pork belly and white rice with rice crust on the table, Qin Yao frowned slightly but said nothing.

Pick up the bowl and chopsticks, "Eat."

As soon as Qin Yao called for dinner, the five of them, father and son, immediately reached for the plate of meat with their chopsticks.

Liu Ji fried all the meat, a total of four pounds of meat, without any vegetables to go with it, and it looked very greasy.

Qin Yao ate a piece without any expectation, and her eyes lit up. It was actually delicious!

After surviving for more than ten years in the apocalypse, her daily food was either dry food or instant noodles. Qin Yao was not picky about food at all. As long as the food tasted good, she thought it was good.

A piece of meat and two big mouthfuls of rice, it doesn't feel greasy at all, and the crispy rice crust is also very fragrant.

Qin Yao ate five bowls in a row before putting down her bowl and chopsticks. She wiped her mouth with satisfaction and said to Liu Ji,

"The nutrition should be balanced. Add some vegetables next time."

After Liu Ji had passed the test, he felt relieved and agreed.

They cooked white rice, but the four children were so full after eating only half a bowl.

Liu Ji ate a little more, one and a half bowls, but was still not full.

Looking at Qin Yao's appetite, it was four times their total. The five father and sons were stunned.

Only then did Dalang and Erlang realize that their stepmother had been restraining her appetite.

Now that there was food at home, she could no longer bear it and ate to her heart's content. After all, she did so much physical work during the day, and she consumed a lot while eating a lot.

After the meal, Qin Yao raised her chin towards Liu Ji, who had no self-awareness at all, and asked him to clear the table. She then instructed him, "Boil more hot water. I want to soak my feet."

Liu Ji's eyes widened. He still had to help her wash her feet?

Qin Yao had just eaten and was in a good mood. She asked in confusion, "You don't even know how to boil water?"

Liu Ji was angry but dared not say anything. He stood up to clean up the dishes and went to boil water reluctantly.

Dalang offered to help, worried that his father really couldn't even boil water.

Before leaving, he gave the twenty-five cents he earned from selling straw sandals to Qin Yao before leaving.

Erlang asked Qin Yao if she could teach him and Liu Jinbao how to catch fish.

The fish in the river are more agile than the rabbits on the ground. They can often only see the shadows of the fish, but cannot even grab the scales when they want to catch them.

Today, Liu Jinbao saw with his own eyes that Qin Yao caught several fish in the river while carrying stones. The child cried because he was greedy and wanted to catch some too.

Unfortunately, the fish ran away as soon as he got close to them. Even though the river was not deep during the dry season, he couldn't catch the fish.

But he was a little afraid of Qin Yao and didn't dare to tell her in person, so he asked Erlang to help test Qin Yao's intentions.

"Do you want to catch fish to eat?" Qin Yao asked.

Jiro nodded frantically.

Qin Yao agreed, "I'll teach you when I'm free tomorrow."

"But let me make this clear first. I can teach you how to catch fish, but you are not allowed to go down to the river to catch fish on your own. You must be accompanied by an adult, otherwise I won't teach you."

It is the dry season now, so there is no danger from the sudden drop in water volume, and there are always people by the river.

But if it comes to the flood season in spring and summer, it will be too dangerous.

Thinking of the fact that people here believe in ghosts and gods, Qin Yao added, "You have to swear to heaven, it's not just a matter of you saying yes."

Erlang didn't take it seriously at first, but now seeing Qin Yao even swore, he realized that Qin Yao was serious.

He quickly responded: "Okay, I'll tell Brother Jinbao."

The hot water is ready, Liu Ji shouted in the kitchen.

Qin Yao stood up and called the three children beside her to go to the kitchen to wash their faces and feet.

There were two basins at home, and Qin Yao naturally used one alone.

Dalang and Erlang will take care of their younger siblings, Qin Yao will pour hot water for them, and the remaining four siblings will do it themselves.

Liu Ji watched his four children queuing up in an orderly manner to wash their faces and feet, making clicking sounds as if they were watching something strange.

Qin Yao glanced at him, looked at his messy long hair, and sincerely suggested: "You'd better wash your hair."

It wasn't that cold that day. If it were later, I would easily catch a cold if I didn't have a hair dryer to dry such long hair immediately.

It's not that I care, I just feel bad about the money.

Qin Yao touched the long hair that was tied up on her head. It was dry and frizzy, and the hair quality was very poor. She might as well cut it off and grow a new one.

Qin Yao did it as soon as she thought of it. She dried her feet with a foot cloth made from old clothes, poured out the water, put the basin under the eaves, got up and went into the side room, and took out a pair of scissors from the pile of sundries she had bought before.

With a few "clicks", without any hesitation, all the dry hair that was almost as long as the calf was cut off, leaving only a little length below the shoulders.

Throw the cut long hair into the stove and burn it!

The flames suddenly ignited, and the father and his five sons were so scared that they all took several steps back. Looking at Qin Yao's medium-length hair, they were greatly shocked.

It is said that one's body and hair are given by one's parents. If children damage them easily, it is a great act of unfilial piety!

Not only did she finish cutting her own hair, she also waved at them, hoping that they would follow her lead.

Qin Yao asked doubtfully: "Don't you want to cut it?"

The five father and sons all looked horrified. Do you think we think so?

Qin Yao shrugged, "It's up to you."

Anyway, she is comfortable now.

It was late. After a day of hard work, Qin Yao was tired. She smiled at the four Dalang brothers and sisters and said, "Good night."

He turned around and went back to the house, closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

Liu Ji immediately boiled a pot of hot water and washed his hair clean.

It seems that Qin Yao would not attack him just because she dislikes his messy hair.

The doctor still had two sets of medicine. Liu Ji washed his hair, and while warming his hair with the remaining fire in the stove, he applied the medicine on his face by feel.

Da Lang coaxed his younger brother and sister-in-law to sleep, then tiptoed out of the side room, squatted in front of Liu Ji, and asked curiously:

"Dad, why did they only hit you in the face?"

"This is a long story, let's talk about it next time." Liu Ji hesitated and didn't want to talk about it.

Dalang could only say "oh" and help him spread the herbs evenly, bringing some comfort to Liu Ji's heart which had been hit hard today.

The father and son washed their hands and went back to their rooms to sleep.

Remembering that he had to get up tomorrow morning to make breakfast for Qin Yao, Liu Ji tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep.

He was afraid that he would not be able to get up, but he was also afraid that if he really got up, he would become a househusband from then on and have no status at all.

But if he left, he didn't know where to go, and the three hundred copper coins in his hand wouldn't last long.

Moreover, now that the family has white rice and meat for every meal, he really feels a little reluctant to give up such a life.

If every meal can be of this quality, then it's not impossible for him to just cook at home with a little compromise.

Anyway, it's better than farming in the fields!

Liu Ji's moral standards are immoral, and he decisively chose to lower himself from the moral baseline.

I pulled the quilt, closed my eyes and fell asleep.

However, he, who always slept until noon, woke up at the fifth crow of the rooster due to his desire to survive.

The evil woman Qin Yao said that she wanted to eat something softer in the morning. Since there was flour at home, Liu Ji decided to steam buns.
