"West? I wonder what kind of fruits there are?"
Cheng Yue suddenly had an idea and asked.
She had never seen the map of this time and space, so she didn't know if it was the same as she remembered.
"There are two small countries to the west of our Great Qi. One is Xifan, which is famous for its grapes, cantaloupes, and melons. The other is Nanfan, which is close to the sea and is hot year-round. The fruits there are somewhat strange and not common to us. When I buy seeds, I'll ask how to grow them and bring them back to tell Miss Cheng. You asked me so suddenly that I can't remember everything. I only know about grapes and cantaloupes."
Boss He smiled.
"Okay! After the Mid-Autumn Festival, Boss He should go over and buy all the seeds he can. I'll give it a try. My dad plans to buy some land anyway, and he doesn't farm it himself."
Cheng Yue nodded and said.
After verbally agreeing on the cooperation, Dahua came out with a tray.
Cheng Yue watched Boss He finish his set meal with gusto. After seeing everyone off, she went back to the kitchen to help.
…
In Xinghua Village, the brothers Cheng Kang and Cheng Shun had breakfast, scolded their children, and then went out for a walk together.
I greeted many people along the way and met Zhang Lizheng halfway, so I took this little brother to visit the village together.
Zhang Lizheng introduced the changes in the village to Cheng Kang.
In fact, not much has changed. More than ten years ago, there was a drought in Da Qi, which caused many families to fail. Now, there are only about a dozen families that Cheng Kang knows.
And they were not familiar with each other. When Cheng Kang left, the heads of those dozen households were still children.
"Uncle Shun, the village chief!"
When I walked to the big banyan tree at the entrance of the village, I happened to meet Mingliang and Lianxiang returning in their carriage.
"Hey! Look, look who it is? Guangming, do you recognize who is in the carriage?"
When Cheng Shun saw the couple, his face suddenly fell.
Aren’t these the bad parents of that naughty girl Mingzhu?
You call him a good person? What a good thing! He is obviously a bad person.
"Uncle Shun, thank you so much for taking care of our Mingzhu these past two months. We really had some problems and couldn't leave!"
Mingliang and Lianxiang dismounted and said with a smile.
"No! Who will take care of that poor girl? What kind of care? She doesn't have parents, and her last name isn't Cheng. Why should I take care of her?"
Cheng Shun rolled his eyes.
"Brother Shunzi!"
Zhang Lizheng pulled Cheng Shun's hand.
"Why are you pulling me? Am I wrong? Isn't Mingzhu that girl pitiful? She's only fifteen years old, the same age as my Jinxing. My Jinyan and Jinxing, their father may not be very smart, but he thinks about his sons all day long. Jinyan's mother is even more so. Even though they have two boys, she still worries about them! Mingzhu is such a pretty little girl, but her parents are so cruel and don't care about her. Aren't they afraid that she will be kidnapped!"
Cheng Shun put his hands behind his back and looked at the couple with disgust in his eyes.
Zhang Lizheng curled his lips and said, "Brother Shunzi, you probably don't know that the poor little girl you are talking about has a nickname in the city, the female devil of Taoyuan County Yamen."
Who could have kidnapped such a female devil?
It's good enough that she doesn't kidnap anyone.
"Uncle Shun, don't we know that you and Auntie will help us take care of the children? We feel at ease with you around. Otherwise, how could we feel at ease? Uncle Shun, come on, come on, we've brought you a lot of good things! You're old, so don't be angry. If you want to scold, you can do it later, okay? Aren't there other people here?"
Lian Xiang blushed at what Cheng Shun said and smiled ingratiatingly.
