Chapter 399 Fire Bull Formation(4)_1
Ma Dàláng strolled about the village with his hands behind his back to take his mind off things. He did a roundabout the village but couldn’t find many idle people.
"Go and ask if the Lin Family needs any day laborers for the wheat harvest?" He heard a voice from a distance while walking down the village’s main path. Ma Dàláng looked up and saw Xiao Pangshi and Zhou Dasheng standing not far away. It was Xiao Pangshi who had spoken. "Most people in the village have work to do, and only our entire family is idle. It’d be nice if we could earn some extra silver by taking advantage of the wheat harvest."
"The Lins don’t like me. Even if I go, they won’t agree. If you want to go, you ask." Zhou Dasheng’s leg had finally healed, and finding work at the market during the summer was not easy. Seeing people from the village earning good wages without leaving their homes, the couple felt envious but could do nothing about it. After all, they had been harsh on the Lin Family previously.
The Lin Family was not the easy target it once was. They were no longer willing to be manipulated or taken advantage of.
Having no other choice, the couple was trying to please Lin Ziyin. Upon hearing the news of Lin Ziyin’s heatstroke yesterday, Xiao Pangshi hurriedly gathered a few of her privately kept eggs in a basket this morning, planning to pay a visit to the Lin Family. Such a rare opportunity to visit was not to be missed by Xiao Pangshi.
"The Lin family is now headed by Lin Ziyin, a woman. You are also a woman, and can easily communicate with her." Lying in bed with a broken leg, Zhou Dasheng’s character had become slightly smoother. "If we can find some temporary work, by the time autumn comes, we can start harvesting nuts earlier. Then we won’t have to worry about getting by."
"It’s agreed. From now on, we’re not allowed to climb up and kick the pines." The thought of her husband lying in bed for nearly half a year made Xiao Pangshi feel afraid inside.
