Springtime Farming: A Happy Wife At Home

Chapter 190 - 190 Not Her



190 Not Her

Ms. Fang moved the basket and snapped at her. “You are not at all honest. You are such a lazy maid. Even the most lazy woman in the village wakes up at this hour and does not even get to eat porridge!”

Liu Yan sneered and thought that she was not a woman from the village anyways.

Liu Yan felt humiliated when she was snapped at by an elderly woman from the countryside.

She forced a small smile out of her lips. “You are right, Madame Shao, I will correct myself. Where is Second Miss, is she also working in the field?”

!!

“Of course.” Ms. Fang snapped at Liu Yan, as she pursed her lips. “We need to eat by doing labor work! You can sweep the yard, the broomstick is in the corner. That is your job from this day on, one sweep in the morning and the evening, no early sweeping in the afternoon, wait until the ducks, chickens and geese all return to the nests…”

Liu Yan felt even worse when she heard about her task.

“Madame Shao.” Liu Yan’s smile stiffened, as she said unhappily, “But I am here to serve Second Miss, and I can’t do such heavy labor. I am not good at it either.”

“There is such a thing as serving!” Ms. Fang’s eyes arose as she sneered. “Let me tell you, Ms. Qiao is working at our home, and your status is even less than hers! What are you countering me for? One more word, and I will slap you right on the face!”

Liu Yan’s face turned pale. She was startled.

She believed her words completely.

Rough women from the countryside always hit or scolded people, instead of talking reasonably.

She could look down at Ms. Fang and her family in her heart, but she could not dare to counter Ms. Fang, if she really slapped her.

“It is my fault, I am sorry! Madam, don’t be mad, I will sweep the floor now!”

Instead of arguing, Liu Yan started to sweep the floor.

Ms. Fang frowned.

Shao Taotao had swept the floor early in the morning. Liu Yan could never do a good job.

This was such a mess!

Ms. Fang looked down at her inside her heart. What was she doing here, and she even wasted their food!

Ms. Fang wanted to drive her away directly, if she could.

Liu Yan sneaked back to her own room, when she saw that Ms. Fang was not paying attention to her.

The broken wing-room was a poor place, but it was much better than doing the labor work.

She was very worried that Ms. Fang would make her do the hard tasks again.

Liu Yan kept herself hidden from everyone. Qiao Xuan as well as the rest of the family did not care, because they never expected her to do anything in the first place.

Qiao Xuan even was worried that Liu Yan would seduce Shao Yunduan, but it seemed that Liu Yan was avoiding the brothers of the Shao Family, fearing that she would be too attached. That made Qiao Xuan feel quite assured.

Liu Yan did not dare to irritate Ms. Fang, so she tried to get close to Ms. Xu and Shao Taotao, hoping to get some news about Qiao Xuan from them.

But Ms. Fang had told Ms. Xu and Shao Taotao not to say anything, so her attempts failed.

They were worried not to be able to counter Liu Yan who might use tricky means, so they kept silent and said nothing.

Without any way out, Liu Yan failed to get any valuable information for Elder Miss Qiao, so she clenched her teeth, and expressed that she was going to keep Qiao Xuan company to do labor work in the fields.

But Qiao Xuan turned her down.
