Everyone is busy working in the fields.
The mute and his friends have not left yet. They originally planned to leave after the autumn, but now every household in Liujia Village is recruiting temporary workers to grow wheat. After discussing it, everyone gritted their teeth and decided to go back before the New Year.
Qian Wang had originally prepared some money and planned to ask the mute to help take it back home, but now seeing that they were still not leaving, he smiled helplessly and had to ask the factory's fleet to give him a ride.
Liu Bo agreed readily. He now knew quite a few fleets that transported goods, so Qian Wang’s problem of sending money could be easily solved.
However, as soon as he agreed to Qian Wang's request, all the mutes came over. In addition to repairing the road, they also helped to repair houses and did odd jobs, and they had saved some money.
The most money could be two or three hundred coins, and the least could be one hundred coins. It might not seem like much, but it could buy dozens of kilograms of food, which could be delivered to one's home so that the family could have an extra meal.
So, several large bags of grain were brought to the stable, and everyone looked at Liu Bo eagerly, with cautious and flattering eyes.
Looking at their expressions, Liu Bo knew what they meant without them saying anything.
After hearing about Qian Wang's situation, they all came to find him and bring things back to their hometown.
It was fine for one person, it was a simple matter. But with so many bags of food at once, Liu Bo suddenly felt a headache.
He didn't dare to answer them, and couldn't look them in the eye. He ran to Qin Yao with his hands covering his eyes and said that he was wrong.
Qin Yao closed the account book and looked at him suspiciously, "What's wrong? Where is it wrong?"
Liu Bo said angrily, "I promised to help Qian Wang send money back home, but I forgot to tell him not to tell anyone. Now, those people from Huangque Town came here carrying bags of grain, and they wanted me to help them send them back home."
Qin Yao thought it was a big deal and smiled. "Come to think of it, they have done a lot for our village. Since they have come here, why not just allocate a car from the fleet to help them with this trip?"
Liu Bo also had this idea, but he had no right to propose it. Now when he heard Qin Yao say this, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief and said happily: "Then I will arrange it now?"
Qin Yao nodded, watched Liu Bo leave, rubbed her eyes gently, locked the account book in the drawer, got up and went out to relax.
As I walked, I arrived at the edge of my own field.
Compared with the two or three people working in other people's fields, there were more than a dozen people working in her field, making it very lively.
Liu Ji, who was teaching Qi Xianguan how to plant seeds, saw Qin Yao by the edge of the field. His eyes lit up and he raised his hand and waved hard: "My wife!"
Qin Yao nodded slightly as a response, and someone's smile instantly became bright.
Qi Xianguan wanted to take the opportunity to escape, but he didn't expect that Liu Ji seemed to have eyes on the back of his head and grabbed him by the back of the collar.
"Brother, where do you want to go? You haven't even learned how to use this kind of wheat yet, how can you give up halfway?" Liu Ji glanced at Qi Xianguan righteously and pressed his head to teach him.
Qin Yao then realized that the boy next to Liu Ji, who was wearing ill-fitting coarse cloth clothes and open-toed straw sandals, was actually Qi Xiangguan!
Gong Liangliao was sitting in a wheelchair, being pushed to the edge of the field by his servant. He caught a glimpse of Qin Yao's surprised expression, as if he remembered something funny, and explained to her:
"He just sat on the dung heap after getting off the field. His good clothes have been ruined and he can't ruin them again. I don't know where San'er found this rough coat. He really looks like a farmer when he puts it on."
Qin Yao raised an eyebrow, then looked at Qi Xianguan who was being forced by Liu Ji to learn how to grow wheat. He clearly despised it, but after hearing Liu Ji say, 'You have to experience everything yourself to understand it. It's inaccurate to just rely on what you read in books,' the young boy just held his nose and endured it.
Qin Yao sighed: "I didn't expect the young master to have such a good temper."
Gong Liangliao nodded affirmatively, "Jingxuan has an extremely good temper."
Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to accompany him to this countryside to experience the sufferings of the world.
As the two were talking, a scream suddenly broke out from the ground.
Qi Xianguan and Liu Ji threw down their hoes and ran towards the ridge of the field as if they were escaping, screaming as they ran, as if they had encountered something terrible.
Gong Liangliao and Qin Yao were both startled by the sudden scream. Shitou immediately threw away his hoe and rushed to the scene to check. He also let out a short scream of "Ah!" and took a big step back.
"What the hell?" Qin Yao ran forward suspiciously, pushed away Liu Ji, who was so frightened that he wanted to throw himself into her arms, picked up the hoe that fell from the stone and came to the place where Qi Xianguan and the other man had been.
When he looked down, he frowned and said "Tsk", what a big nest of eels!
Long mud-colored strips were tangled together. Their good nests were suddenly destroyed by humans, and they were scared so much that they ran around everywhere. However, because the soil around them was dry and hard, they were frightened and crawled out in a panic.
"Madam Qin, are you, aren't you afraid?" Qi Xianguan hugged Shitou's arm and asked with concern.
Shitou was a little frightened when he first saw such a nest of disgusting things, but now he has calmed down and explained to his master softly, "Don't panic, young master, it's just a nest of eels."
"Eel?" Qi Xianguan was also stunned. The eels in his memory were not so scary.
Liu Ji was also stunned for a moment. It turned out to be a nest of eels? He thought he had dug up a nest of poisonous snakes. He was so scared that his heart almost stopped.
He took a few tentative steps forward and came behind Qin Yao, only to be glanced at speechlessly by Qin Yao.
Liu Ji immediately straightened his chest and said, "My lady, don't look at me like that. I'm not afraid. I was frightened by my senior brother's scream and didn't look closely at first."
Qin Yao said "oh" meaningfully and asked him to get a bucket.
Although she didn't know why so many eels could be dug out from the drained field, since they appeared, they would have a treat tonight!
Qi Xiangguan frowned instantly as he watched Qin Yao and his wife quickly grabbing and loading all the panicked eels into the wooden barrel.
Liu Ji wanted to bring it over to show him, "Brother, look, such a fat eel, we are in for a treat tonight!"
He then said to the guards, "Everyone, work harder. Let's try to finish planting all ten acres of land today. Then I'll have Awang stew them all for everyone tonight!"
At the end, he added: "The meat is so tender, I guarantee you will never forget it after eating it!"
Not knowing whether he was bewitched by Liu Ji, Qi Xianguan squinted his eyes and glanced into the wooden barrel. Suddenly, he felt that these eels were not so disgusting anymore, and he even wanted to swallow his saliva.
Liu Ji winked at his junior brother proudly, and then came to Gong Liangliao with the wooden barrel, "Teacher, take a look!"
Gong Liangliao took a quick look and turned his head away in disdain. Liu Ji chuckled, took the barrel away, and went to find Qin Yao who was washing her hands by the ditch. "My wife, I'll take these eels home first. I'll ask Awang to fry you a dish of your favorite spicy eel in the evening."
As he was about to leave, Qin Yao stopped him, "Put it down and go back to your work."
Liu Ji: "Okay, my lady."
He decisively put down the barrel, turned around, sighed, and put his arm around Qi Xianguan's small shoulders, almost causing him to stagger. "Brother, come here. I will continue to teach you how to grow wheat."
Liu Ji has to work, so no one else can sit idle! (End of this chapter)
