Chapter 682 She is the only one in the village who is not allowed to plant
"Yes, it's hot. If we don't water it now, we won't be able to water it at noon."
"Could it be that something happened again? Who has committed a crime again?"
"There aren't any fewer people. It shouldn't be the police. Chief, please tell me something. I'm so worried."
"......"
Many people were urging us.
Some people even speculated that someone in the village had committed a crime and was sent to jail.
The sound is very noisy.
Village Chief Zhou cleared his throat, coughed a few times, and said in a loud voice: "Be quiet, shut up, and listen to me, everyone. Your good days are coming——"
These words made the villagers in front of him excited.
"What do you mean? How can we live a good life now?"
"Yeah, could it be that you, the village chief, have become rich and want to pull us in?"
"That's not right, Village Chief, you stay in the village every day, how can you be so prosperous? I see, did you dig ginseng in the mountains and want to share it with us? Village Chief, you are too polite, we dare not ask for too much, but if you share some meat with us, I dare to ask for it, my grandson just loves meat."
"Just now, I saw a carriage coming into the village and then leaving very quickly. Is it related to this? Who was that person?"
These people were speculating wildly.
Village Chief Zhou did not keep the secret and continued, "What ginseng is it? It doesn't know me, and I don't know it either. Even if it grows in front of my house, I will just treat it as a weed. Don't guess randomly. This is Jiangjia Village, and the granddaughter of Chief Jiang is here..."
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by the villagers.
"What? The granddaughter of the chief of Jiangjia Village?"
"Hey, isn't this the divine doctor Jiang who was personally appointed by the emperor? What is she doing here?"
"I know! Does she want to come and harvest chestnuts? After all, our village is close to the mountains, and there are chestnuts in the mountains. But this is not right. The chestnuts are not ripe yet. Isn't it too early?"
"You are so stupid. She probably came here for the medicinal herbs. Have you forgotten? Why did Jiangjia Village become prosperous? It's because of the medicinal herbs! The wasteland became a medicinal field, and they lived a very happy life. However, Jiangjia Village only had a few wastelands, so naturally there were not enough for planting.
I heard that the Ren Ai Clinic has a long queue every day. They are all from other places who come to see the miracle doctor. The herbs must not be enough. They probably want us to help grow the herbs. Village chief, what do you think, am I right?"
A man named Zhou Dazhong asked loudly.
Unexpectedly, Village Chief Zhou actually nodded at him.
"You all guessed wrong, except Dazhong. Dr. Jiang came here for this matter. She wants to buy the wasteland in our village, and then you will reclaim it and cultivate the fields. She will give you medicinal seeds to plant, and when the herbs are mature, she will come back to harvest them. Who is willing to plant? Each family can plant as many acres of wasteland as they reclaim.
If you want to plant, please register with me. I have made it clear in advance that if you are not willing to plant more than 30%, Dr. Jiang will not cooperate with us. You must not miss this good opportunity, or you will regret it. You know what life is like in Jiangjia Village. "
Although Village Chief Zhou knew that most of them would agree, he still tried to persuade them.
As he expected, all the villagers lined up happily.
The names of each family were recorded.
Even before Jiang Fubao bought the wasteland, they had already selected the wasteland to be reclaimed.
If there are many people, they can open up three or four acres of land. If there are few people, they can only open up one or two acres of land.
In the end, the whole village participated.
Except for Sun Xiaotao who was excluded.
When Village Chief Zhou held a meeting that day, she was in the corner, watching in the dark.
Although the past six months have been hard, they are much happier than before.
At least she was self-sufficient and didn't have to be beaten anymore, let alone serve that idiot. However, since no one talked to her, Sun Xiaotao became withdrawn and her previously beautiful eyes now had slightly droopy eyelids, and were evolving into triangular eyes.
His appearance has changed a lot. If Jiang Zhuzi were here, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to recognize him.
The villagers guessed correctly that the poisonous mushroom was picked by Sun Xiaotao on purpose.
When she was a child, she went to the town with her family and met an old woman selling mushrooms in the vegetable market. Someone who knew about the business happened to tell her that the mushrooms the old woman sold were mixed with this kind of poisonous five-step mushroom, which is very poisonous and can kill people even if they eat just one bite. It just so happened that this mushroom was beautiful and eye-catching, and it grew specifically under trees after snow. Sun Xiaotao has remembered it until now.
Unfortunately, only one was poisoned to death.
However, I thought about the dire straits that the Zhou family was going through, suffering in prison, or doing forced labor.
She lived in the Zhou family's house and cultivated the Zhou family's land. How happy she was!
"Humph, if you don't call me, I won't be willing to go. What a joke! I really hope Jiang Fubao won't take your herbs, so you won't have anywhere to cry."
After saying this sinisterly, Sun Xiaotao left carrying the dung bucket.
There is still work to be done in the fields.
She had to hurry, otherwise the sun would be directly on her head and the heat would be unbearable.
The hardships during this period made her health deteriorate a lot, and Mrs. Wang always gave her various tonics and secret elixirs for fertility.
Until now, she still feels uncomfortable from time to time.
After Jiang Fubao collected the herbs, she went to Zhoujia Village as promised. She didn't even need to show up to complete the procedures for buying the wasteland.
After all, I know that the county magistrate is Meng Bujiu.
She treats the county government as her home and goes there whenever she wants.
After speaking some words to the villagers of Zhoujia Village, she left.
The villagers had already chosen the site after taking note of the names that day, and Jiang Fubao left.
Each family split into two groups, half went to do farm work in the fields, and the other half went to reclaim wasteland. They even skipped their siesta at noon and went to the wasteland after dinner.
If they bloom and grow well sooner, you can plant medicinal herbs sooner.
The hottest time of the summer begins in late July and lasts until the end of August, when the temperature slowly drops.
There are also several basins of ice cubes in Jiang Fubao's clinic.
Such a generous amount is enough to prove how rich she is.
When she returned home in the evening, the doorman said that her godfather and godmother had come, so she went straight to the main room at the entrance to the courtyard to entertain the guests.
"Fubao, Ruyi, you are back. I have been waiting for you for a long time. Come, take it."
Seeing the two sisters come in, Wan Xian immediately stood up, took a wooden box from the table beside her, opened it, and two bracelets appeared inside.
One is made of gold and inlaid with gems, and the other is a jade bracelet with a light pink color, which is very cute.
"What is this? Godmother, my second sister and I's birthdays haven't come yet." Jiang Fubao asked in surprise.
"It's not a birthday at all. Your second sister helped me modify the recipe, and your godfather took it to a food store and sold it, making a lot of money. This dish can be eaten in summer, not to mention winter. In summer, if you replace the grapefruit with other fruits, the taste is still good. Your godfather and I thought of giving Ruyi a piece of jewelry."
