Manage Et Trois

Menage et Trois On the farm, I was sent to when my mother was at home for tuberculosis, I was quite happy, the people on the farm consisted of a middle-aged couple The sister of the wife and two mentally deficient women did the work The farm got payment from the state keeping them; they didn´t liven the house, but in the barn sleeping on straw mattresses. At the time I saw nothing wrong in this but they were cruelly exploited doing all the dirty work which farms produce. As usual, I walked around in my own world milked five cows In the morning and fed the beasts, the cleaning I left for the two idiots to do. In the house the two sisters argued a lot, the farmers sometimes slept in one bedroom, his wife’s sister and at times with his wife. It appears I saw a manage et Trois were one part was an unwilling participant, which only stopped when the unmarried sister moved out. When my mother was coming home from the sanatorium, I told her and there was much laughter in the family.
