In the ancient countryside, the summer climate was not particularly hot, and even using mugwort for writing at night was not particularly effective.
Fu Ziya put gauze on every bed.
If it's particularly hot during the day, Fu Ziya will also cook some mung bean soup and sour plum soup to relieve the heat.
A month passed quietly like this.
An unexpected guest came to the Huo family that day.
That's right, this person is none other than Huo Zixian.
She came to Fu Ziya in a state of embarrassment.
Now she no longer has the aloof aura she had back then.
She knelt at the door of the new house, crying and saying, she looked so pitiful.
"Sister-in-law, just forgive me. For the sake of me being Huo Ruihua's sister, just let me stay. If I hadn't been really desperate, I wouldn't have been able to show up here."
Soon a group of people gathered around the door of the house, and there was a big girl among the crowd.
She also called these people here.
Acting must have an audience, otherwise how can it continue.
She didn't believe that with so many people watching, she would not let Huo Zixian in regardless of her face.
The little boy hid behind Fu Ziya in fear.
The memory of almost being taken away last time is still vivid in my mind.
The little boss also pursed his lips tightly and stared at the so-called aunt who was acting there.
I wonder what her purpose is for coming here this time?
He looked at Fu Ziya with some worry. She wouldn't allow this woman to come in, would she?
Fu Ziya could guess the purpose of this woman's presence here just by thinking about it.
After all, her winery is so big now, she must have heard about it and wanted to take advantage of it.
Maybe it's more than just taking advantage.
"Since you called me sister-in-law, let me ask you, after staying in prison for so long, do you now know that you were wrong?
Will you think about these three children again?
After all, you have a criminal record, so it doesn't mean we can't take you in.
As long as you swear that you won't take advantage of this child again, I will let you live here temporarily. "
Huo Zixian immediately swore: "I won't do it anymore, I won't dare to do it again.
Huo Zixian swore to God that if I dared to take advantage of these three children again, God would strike me with thunder and death.
Sister-in-law, don't worry, I won't live and eat for free, I can do any job. "
【Why is Huo Zixian so miserable now? You see her clothes are all patched. 】
【I don’t know how much suffering she has suffered recently. Look at her hands, they are all calluses. 】
【Ms. Huo, look how pitiful she is now, just let her live here. 】
【Yes, yes, just let her stay. No matter what, she is still Huo Ruihua's sister. 】
【For the sake of her admitting her mistake, let her stay. 】
·············
Fu Ziya raised her eyebrows, "Okay, since you admit your mistakes and repent, I will give you a chance. Let's live at home from now on. Xiaoqing, you take her with you and teach her simple tasks such as washing and cooking."
Under your nose, you can still know what she wants to do.
Huo Zixian raised the corners of her mouth.
I didn’t expect the first step to be so easy.
She looked at the well-built house in front of her with jealous eyes.
It was bigger and more impressive than her husband's house.
Fu Ziya, just wait, all of this will be mine.
The little boss stared at his so-called aunt unkindly.
I have disliked them since I was a child, and not long ago I even wanted to sell my younger brother.
Now that the conditions at home are a little better, she is anxious to come to the house again.
Such a woman doesn't look like an aunt at all.
And this woman must be holding something bad when she comes to visit this time.
If she dares to do anything detrimental to the family, he will not let her go.
The second child is still hiding behind Fu Ziya at this time. The last incident left a huge shadow on him and he is very afraid of this aunt.
Huo Zixian suddenly saw the look in the little boss's eyes, and her heart skipped a beat. How did this look like that of a nine-year-old child? Terrified. But to achieve her goal, she must stay.
Huo Zixian lived like this.
As she said, she was very diligent.
Laundry, cleaning, cooking...
Her destination was the winery.
But after being here for so long, she has endless things to do every day and has no contact with the winery at all.
Not to mention knowing the brewing recipe.
She didn't want to be yelled at by Fu Ziya like this.
She was troubled, wondering when she would be able to steal the brewing recipe if this continued.
Just staying here for half a month, I either sweep the floor, cook, or do laundry every day.
Xiaoqing went to work in the winery.
This Fu Ziya doesn't know how to live, so she bought such a little girl.
When she goes to work, she is also paid.
All the work that Xiaoqing did before was now done by her.
That day she threw the broom away angrily, then sat on a stool, eating melon seeds, and thinking of a solution.
Suddenly she had an idea.
While waiting for lunch, she said to Fu Ziya:
"Sister-in-law, I've been here for so long and I'm still living and eating from you. I'm very embarrassed.
Otherwise, I'd better go to the winery and help out, so I can earn some money.
I can't live alone in this house. "
Fu Ziya wanted to laugh in her heart. Huo Zixian finally couldn't stay any longer?
It turned out that she was here for the winery.
"Xiao Xian, we are a family, what are you talking about?
But since you want to work in a winery, it’s not impossible.
But you are treated the same as everyone else. That's no problem. "
Huo Zixian said hurriedly: "No problem, no problem, I can endure any hardship."
Fu Ziya nodded: "Okay, let Xiaoqing come back tomorrow, and you can go to the winery instead."
The next day, when Huo Zixian came to the winery, because she had no skills and experience, and under Fu Ziya's special instructions, Huo Zixian continued to do the work of washing grapes.
Although it is summer now, her hands have become white and wrinkled.
The waist is stretched and the head is unable to stand up.
Where has Huo Zixian ever suffered such hardship?
Besides, this job has no technical content at all.
She immediately found Brother Lin and scolded him: "I don't want to do this job anymore. I'm too tired. Look at my hands. My waist doesn't belong to me anymore."
Brother Lin got his sister's instructions and knew what her purpose was here.
That would definitely make her suffer more.
“Meizi Huo, it’s like this. Anyone who works in a winery starts by washing the grapes.
It will take at least a month before I can arrange other work for you.
I know you haven't endured hardship before. If you can't hold on, you'd better leave early.
After all, working in a winery is not an easy task. "
How could Huo Zixian be willing to give up like this? She took a bite and could only continue washing the grapes.
When Brother Lin told Huo Ziya about this, Huo Ziya smiled happily.
Although the book does not talk about Huo Zixian's character in detail, after all, she is not an important character.
