In the past, when Xi Yao was not here, Zhou Yi could handle such a thing alone, but now, the two of them are too busy.

Why doesn't this make her confused?

"Mother," Mrs. Chen asked, and Zhou Yi felt aggrieved.

She was shouting in a crying and aggrieved tone, her eyes were red, and she was immediately frightened.

"Mom didn't scold you, I just wanted to ask you why you were crying." Mrs. Chen was shocked, and so were everyone.

"Little sister, don't cry. We are not angry. If we eat later, we can harvest more," Zhou Qing hurriedly comforted her.

"Yeah, don't cry,"

The more coaxed by the Zhou family, the more aggrieved Zhou Yi felt. Zhou Yi, who had finally been coaxed by Xi Yao, faced the family's concern, and the tears came from nowhere. They flowed all over her face and she couldn't stop them.

"What's going on?" Zhou Rong felt something was wrong, walked to Xi Yao and asked in a low voice.

He knew very well that his sister was definitely not the kind of person who couldn't say a word unless she was really wronged.

But just now, my mother asked her, but she didn't feel wronged. This crying was a bit weird.

Xi Yao sighed and whispered: "When my little sister and I were about to cook, Zhou Dayun suddenly rushed in and scared my little sister. I beat him out with a pole!"

Zhou Rong's initially confused face was instantly filled with anger.

"I think something is wrong with Zhou Dayun. He didn't give up even after being beaten by me. It was like he was trying to catch his little sister with all his strength. I gave him a good lesson and it hurt so much that he ran away," Xi Yao muttered.

"Oh, he is afraid of death!"

Zhou Rong's sneer made Xi Yao puzzled.

"He is afraid of death, why is he holding on to his little sister!?"

"When we went to the fields before, we met him. He wanted to stir up trouble, but I exposed it. I also told him that he would probably have a share of our family's labor quota. I don't know what Zhou Qian told him.

Yes, it's probably not ideal. He doesn't want to work and has no money, so he just wants to ruin his little sister's reputation and then defraud the Zhong family of ten taels of silver... Or he wants to use his little sister to threaten us and make us work as hard labor.

"

Xi Yao was stunned, he didn't expect things to be so complicated.

To sum it up, this is actually a calculation against each other.

Whoever wins can laugh.

At the moment, Zhou Dayun is in a passive position, or may end up miserable, but Xi Yao has no sympathy at all.

How could he have fallen into it if he didn't get involved.

"We need to keep people at home," Xi Yao whispered, "otherwise, who knows what people will do to resist hard labor!"

"Yeah!" Zhou Rong nodded.

At this moment, after Zhou Yi cried, she didn't dare to say anything about Zhou Dayun, for fear of affecting everyone's mood.

However, the Zhou family are not stupid. No one knows the temperament of their own family members. Besides, Xi Yao and Zhou Rong were muttering to each other. Both of them looked ugly, so something must have happened.

But seeing that the two of them were living safely, it showed that things were going well. The Zhou family had a tacit understanding and did not ask further questions. Instead, they thought about finishing all the afternoon's work before talking.

Xi Yao thought that this matter had to be handled quietly, after all, it was related to Zhou Yi's reputation.

But who would have known that after dark, the children would come back. Mrs. Chen and other female family members came back carrying the harvested rice, but only the men in the family were missing. This made her very confused, and she even looked around specially.

Ask: "Where are dad and the others?"
