Chapter 83 Cheating



Nangong Jiu looked at the fields full of crops.

【I don’t know him.】

"This crop is called rice. The fruit it produces, when cooked, becomes the rice we eat."

Nangong Jiu stared at the rice seedlings with joy.

[It's amazing! Planting it in water will produce fruit! ]

“Water alone is not enough, there must be soil underneath.

The crops are growing well this year, and unless there are any disasters, it's likely to be another bumper year."

Nangong Jiu raised his little fist towards the sky.

disaster?

My fiefdom.

There can only be good weather and good harvest!

The group walked around the fields and saw a farmer pulling weeds. At first glance, the weeds looked very similar to rice seedlings.

Bad guy!

Pulling out rice seedlings!

“*&%¥#*&*&*&”

Nangong Jiu became anxious and pointed at the farmer, yelling in a babyish voice.

Nangong Yunxue explained with a smile: "He pulled out grass, but it looked like rice seedlings. If you look closely, there are some differences between rice seedlings and grass."

The farmer smiled and glanced at Nangong Yunxue: "This lady knows a lot!"

"To be honest, uncle, I used to grow crops."

Liu Hao took the opportunity to ask the farmer, "Uncle, how do you think the crops are growing this year?"

The farmer nodded: "Not bad, about the same as previous years."

"The crops are growing so well this year. After the harvest, there shouldn't be any problem for the villagers to have enough food to eat, right?"

"Under normal circumstances, eating is no problem and I can get enough to eat and eat."

"Oh? What about abnormal situations?"

"In abnormal circumstances, such as famine, we can only live frugally and endure hunger and cold."

“Have there been many famines in the past?”

The farmer laughed and said, “I have only encountered this three times in my life.

It’s hard to say about other counties. In some places with poor soil, there will always be a month or two of food shortage every year…”

Liu Hao asked some questions closely related to the farmers' families, such as farmers' taxes, government policies towards farmers, measures to help farmers, etc., before returning to the carriage.

"Jiu'er, if you want to understand whether a county official is competent, just asking this question is not comprehensive enough.

We need to learn more about the lives of ordinary people, see how they eat, wear, live and travel, and see what they have, what they lack, what they want, and so on."

Nangong Jiu nodded seriously, already having a preliminary plan in mind.

After finishing the serious business, he felt a little bored, so he lifted up his mother's clothes with his chubby little hands, hid his little head under the clothes, and played hide-and-seek with Liu Hao.

“Dudu… Cluck…”

Liu Hao played with her for a while, moving back and forth. Then he said with a smile, "Jiu'er, how about uncle playing a game with you?"

When Nangong Jiu heard that there was something to play with, he immediately came out from under his clothes and looked at Liu Hao with his big excited eyes.

Liu Hao wiped his hands with a wet towel, took out a piece of dried meat from the paper bag containing snacks, and put it in the palm of his hand to show it to Nangong Jiu.

"Wait a minute, guess which hand the food is in. If you guess correctly, I'll give it to you. How about that?"

What's so difficult about that?

Just give it to me for free.

Nangong Jiu stared at the dried meat, unable to take his eyes off it, nodding his head repeatedly with greed.

Liu Hao said seriously, "Let's talk about the rules of the game first.

You can't use your cultivation, and you can't ask Xiao Wang and Xiao Xing for help. You can only rely on your feelings and your naked eyes to guess. Can you do it?"

Nangong Jiu pouted, hesitated for a moment, and nodded.

"Then let's get started."

Liu Hao put his hands behind his back, switched the dried meat between his hands several times, and raised both hands in front of Nangong Jiu at the same time.

"Guess, in which hand is the jerky?"

Nangong Jiu looked at this hand, touched that hand, and even leaned over to smell it. After hesitating for a long time, he finally chose his right hand.

Liu Hao smiled and spread out his hands, but the meat strip was in his left hand.

Nangong Jiu was stunned.

Without relying on his own cultivation and the help of Xiao Wang and Xiao Xing, he couldn't even guess what dried meat was, just like an ordinary child.

Seeing Nangong Jiu in a daze, Liu Hao hurriedly said, "It doesn't matter if you didn't guess it right. Try again. You'll get it right after a few more guesses."

Liu Hao smiled and put his hands behind his back again.

After pouring the dried meat in his hands several times, he raised his hands in front of Nangong Jiu again.

Nangong Jiu rolled his eyes, and quietly used a little bit of his spiritual sense to explore. Then, after pretending to choose seriously, he chose his right hand again.

Liu Hao spread out his hands, and the meat strip was indeed in his right hand.

"Jiu'er is so amazing!"

“Meat…”

Nangong Jiu jumped up from the mat, grabbed the strips of meat and stuffed them into his mouth.

Xiao Wang glanced at Nangong Jiu with a bit of disdain: "Your Majesty, you are cheating!"

"Shut up, don't cheat. I'm just a nine-month-old baby with almost no senses. How could I possibly guess right?

Don't make a fuss, at worst I'll give you some."

When Xiao Wang heard that he could share some, he obediently shut his mouth.

Nangong Jiu bit it with his teeth and tore it with his hands, finally tearing off a piece of meat covered with saliva: "Here you go!"

Xiao Wang was so angry that he complained: "You are so stingy!"

"My teeth haven't grown in yet, so I can't bite. It's not that I'm stingy."

Liu Hao seemed to understand the interaction between the two funny guys. He laughed and took out another piece of meat: "Xiao Wang, this is for you."

Xiao Wang took it while wagging his tail, and lay down beside Nangong Jiu, chewing it with a "crunch, crunch" sound.

Nangong Yunxue looked at Xiaoxing curiously: "Xiaoxing, can you eat? Why haven't I seen you eat anything?"

"Since Madam asked, I'll eat a little."

Xiaoxing flew in front of Liu Hao and stopped in mid-air.
