The Reborn Lady

Chapter 128

Chapter 128

Ordinary people who are really struggling for a living would probably find it difficult to enjoy any pleasure from farming, but it is different for Wei Ruo and his sons.

The father wanted to teach them the hardships of farming, while Xiao Heng and Xun'er just thought it was fun. With the cooperation of the father and his two sons, and the help of Yin Hui and Ning Jie, they had a very fulfilling morning and managed to tidy up two vegetable plots.

Finally, Ruo Zhou took his sons to the stream to fetch water.

He held a bucket in one hand, while Xiao Heng and Xun'er each held one end of a pole and lifted a smaller bucket together.

The stream is a stream of fresh water brought in from the river north of the palace. It meanders past Taoranju and supplies all the water features in the palace garden.

After filling the buckets, the three came back together.

Wei Ruo walked behind, looking at his two sons in front.

Xiao Heng was tall, but he deliberately walked with his shoulders tilted and his hands lowered, so that the bucket would slide along the pole to his side, reducing the burden on Xun'er. The two brothers were ambitious and filled the buckets to the brim, then sprinkled water as they walked, leaving a wet path on the ground. Xun'er was so distressed that he almost cried, and he was reluctant to spill the water.

Xiao Heng: "It's okay, we'll decorate less next time."

Xun'er looked back at his father and saw that the buckets his father was holding in both hands were also full, but almost no water was spilled.

Now, Xun'er admired his father even more.

The three of them returned to Taoran Ju.

Ning Jie'er was playing alone in the yard. Wei Ruo looked towards the main room in the middle. The door was open and Yin Hui was taking out the food from the lunch box and placing it on the dining table. The spring breeze blew through the room, blowing the hem of her light gauze skirt like ripples on the water. The scene was actually a bit warm, like a young woman from a farm preparing lunch and waiting for her husband and children to return.

After putting the bucket in place, Wei Zhou gave each of his sons a gourd ladle and had them sprinkle water into the ditch.

Ning Jie'er ran over and wanted to play too.

When Yin Hui saw this, she ran over to grab her daughter. She had just helped her daughter wash her hands and face and put on a new skirt. If she continued playing in the water, she would definitely get her daughter dirty.

"Daddy, hold me!"

The more her mother chased her, the faster Ning Jie'er ran. Wei Ruo was afraid that his daughter would step into the mud, so he hurried over and picked her up high.

Ning Jie'er hugged her father's neck and looked back at her mother.

Yin Hui said, "It's time to eat, no more playing."

Ning Jieer pointed to the vegetable patch and said, "Water it!"

Her daughter was playful, so Yin Hui looked at Wei Ruo.

Just now her mind was basically on her daughter, or on watching her sons busying around. Only then did she realize that Wei Ruo's face was sunburned after being busy for half a day, with beads of sweat rolling down his forehead and face. Coupled with his coarse cloth and short jacket, he really looked like a burly farmer who had just finished his busy farming season.
