Picking Up a General to Plow the Fields

Chapter 11 Waiting for My Mother to Ask You for It

"Yes!" Mr. Qiao's eyes lit up again, and he hummed proudly: "In my opinion, you must have sold all the grain secretly, but you deliberately pretended to be pitiful and went to our house to blackmail! Hmph! , your sister and brother's abacus is sounding, you sell grain to put money in your pockets, and at the same time come to ask for grain, is there such a cheap thing!"

"Although your parents are gone, you still have to have some conscience! Don't be crooked!" Lian Li also continued: "Well, if you can't survive as nieces and nephews, we will help you with three fights and five fights. It's not impossible, but if you want to be rude, it's too outrageous to say that a lion's mouth is a thousand jins!"

"You, you—" Lian Ze was so angry that he couldn't speak, his chest heaving up and down and his breath was a little chaotic.

He was really surprised and disappointed.

He never thought that his uncle and aunt would have such a face. What kind of affection, what kind of blood, in their eyes, I'm afraid it's worthless!

At this moment, the sadness in my heart is far greater than the anger.

Lian Fangzhou gently tugged at Lian Ze's sleeve and patted him on the shoulder as a sign of comfort, but he was neither anxious nor annoyed, and asked steadily and calmly, "So, the uncle and aunt are iron. Are you unwilling to return the food to us?"

"As beautiful as you think!" Joe snorted.

Lian Li is obviously better than his second-hand girls, and immediately said: "What to pay back? We don't owe you anything at all, how can we pay it back!"

"Yes, that's right!" Qiao Shi immediately echoed.

"Haha," Lian Fangzhou smiled lightly and said, "Anyway, my mother asked me to come and I came too, and I said what my mother asked me to say. But the eldest uncle and aunt just refused to admit it, and there was nothing I could do. By the way, my mother also told me that if you don't give it, she will ask you in person! We, sister and brother, will leave first!"

Lian Li and Qiao Shi were stunned for a moment, but they didn't know what to say for a while: This girl is obviously not a good stalker with sharp teeth and sharp mouths. Looking at that posture, she was so aggressive that she ended up like this?

Lian Fangzhou's words of giving up were too clear, which made Lian Li feel unreal.

"You, just left?" Lian Li couldn't help asking.

Lian Fangzhou smiled lightly and said, "I didn't just leave, I believe my mother's words, you will definitely return the food to us!"

"Ha!" Lian Li sneered towards the sky, watching Lian Fangzhou sister and brother leave.

"Master, this, why do I think this is a bit weird!" Qiao Shi was also a little incredulous and stammered.

"Do you think so?" Lian Li turned to look at her and asked, "Then tell me, what's the weird way?"

Qiao Shi said "blind!" and said, "You asked me to tell me that I can't tell, but I just think it's weird! You didn't see how arrogant the dead girl was when Mrs. Yang came to leave the family that day. Reasonable, why suddenly today—this is not right!"

"Humph!" Lian Li sneered and said calmly, "Didn't she say that her goddamn girl would come to us? Then we'll just wait."

Qiao Shi was stunned and said hurriedly: "Bah, bah, bah! What nonsense are you talking about! Okay, why did she come to us! It's not that we hurt her!"

"What are you afraid of!" Lian Li glanced at her calmly: "I don't believe it!"

Qiao's heart was still beating a little, and she forced a smile, but said nothing.

"Sister," Lian Ze said sadly to Lian Fangzhou after leaving Lian Li's house, "I really didn't expect the eldest uncle and aunt to say such a thing! When my parents were there, they took a lot of free benefits from our family. How can they say that! Are they really our uncle and aunt?"

Lian Fangzhou smiled lightly and said, "Didn't you see it all? Well, don't be sad, be sad for them, how stupid!"

"I'm not..." Lian Ze himself didn't know how to describe his mood at the moment.

"Sister, did Mother really entrust you with a dream?" Lian Ze couldn't help asking, and sighed: "What if it's true? I said long ago that the eldest uncle will not return the food to us! Sister! Don't worry, we won't starve to death, as long as we get through this winter, and when the grain is harvested next year, I will watch closely and never let them help again."

"When is this, there's still one year left until next year's autumn harvest!" Lian Fangzhou rolled his eyes at him, couldn't bear to see his sad expression, and said softly: "Okay, don't worry, we'll be sure of this thousand catties of grain. Come back if you can! The premise is that you have to obey my arrangements!"

Lian Ze looked at her suspiciously, and Lian Fangzhou smiled lightly, confident.

Early the next morning, Li Damu set up an ox cart and called Lian Ze to accompany him to Shiwan to buy bricks and tiles.

Before the bank note was opened, Lian Fangzhou grabbed a handful of two or three hundred copper coins and wrapped them in a handkerchief, intending to pay the deposit first.

Even Fangzhou wants to go with her. She can be described as a black eye now. She takes this opportunity to go out and take a look at the mountains and rivers, soil vegetation and crops. It is also good.

Li Damu thought for a while, then nodded and smiled.

When Lian Fangqing saw it, he wanted to play with him, but Lian Fangzhou refused, and told Lian Che to be at home with her and to be optimistic about her. Lian Fangqing pouted, very unhappy.

Lian Fangzhou couldn't bear to see her pitiful little grievance, so he pulled her over and said in a low voice, "You stay at home with the third brother, and my sister will fry eggs for you again in the evening, okay?"

Lian Fangqing's eyes lit up, subconsciously licked his lips and his face full of yearning, but shook his head and said, "No, eggs should be kept for selling money to buy food."

Lian Fangzhou felt sad, and said softly, "Sister will earn the money to buy food. You don't need to sell eggs. From now on, we will give you and Che'er eggs to eat."

"Really!" Lian Fangqing was overjoyed, nodded quickly, and said, "Elder sister and second brother also eat together."

"Okay, let's eat together." Lian Fangzhou said with a smile.

Lian Fangzhou and Lian Ze were sitting on the ox cart, Li Damu was driving the cart, and the three of them walked slowly to Shiwan.

After leaving Dafang Village, Lian Fangzhou paid attention to the situation on both sides. I saw that there were mostly undulating hills on both sides of the road, or a small hill protruding from the middle of the flat ground, covered with lush various trees. She looked at it roughly, and most of them were fir, pine, fir, maple, and camphor. , Quercus and other common tree species in Southwest China.

On the relatively gentle slopes, many places have been reclaimed into dry land to grow crops. At this season, the land is also withered, and half-yellow sweet potato vines and taro seedlings can be seen, as well as some scattered bean racks.

In places with water sources, paddy fields have long been opened up. At this time, there are only rice stubble, withered yellow and yellow covering the entire field.

Lian Fangzhou didn't need to ask at all, he already knew it in his heart.
