Fan Damu's mother and wife also looked displeased when they saw the lime.
They haven't even built a house yet, why would they buy this?
Fan Damu now regretted his actions. When he heard that they were almost gone, he thought he should buy them quickly, but now he realized that he had wasted money.
But since I've already bought it, I can't admit that I made a mistake.
On the other side, a bustling scene of people buying lime was taking place in front of the warehouse of Shuiqing Courtyard.
When Fan Qian and Fan Damu came before, she didn't let any of the younger ones show up, and she certainly couldn't let her own family members show up. Otherwise, if the two of them pressured her by being elders or claimed to be members of the Fan family, how would they discuss money? How would they collect money?
Now that everyone here is from the village and is a law-abiding citizen, the task of buying lime has been handed over to a few of the younger villagers.
She stood at a distance and watched, then whispered to Fan Jin beside her, "I never expected that we would be so worried about how to distribute the produce and get the villagers to give it to us willingly. Now they are actually coming to buy it on their own initiative."
It's important to understand that changing farmers' mindsets is very difficult.
Especially for things that don't produce immediate results, even if it's done in the name of doing what's best for them, getting them to work is not an easy task.
Fan Jin smiled faintly, "It was Uncle Ding who made them believe that plagues are likely to occur after floods, and that lime is useful."
This is partly related to seeing the body in person a few days ago.
What villager isn't afraid?
Shui Qing thought to herself, with Uncle Ding behind her and Aunt Ding in front of her, the Ding family really was taking advantage of her.
She watched as Hu Wenhua carried a large sack of lime with the ease of carrying a ball of cotton, and casually asked, "How old is Uncle Ding's daughter?"
The Ding family moved here later; they were a small family, and their way of speaking and doing things was quite different from the people of Shanshui Village.
They don't know how to farm, nor do they own any land; they make a living by collecting medicinal herbs.
They cleared a small plot of wasteland behind the village to grow some vegetables and raise a few chickens and ducks. They built three mud-brick and tile houses, which were decent but not particularly eye-catching.
Because I live at the very back of the village, I rarely interact with the villagers and have a very low profile in the village.
But whenever there's trouble in the village, they are extremely reliable.
Like this flood, the mushroom poisoning incident, and the poisoning of Fan Qiansun Jinhua's family, well, we can't blame Aunt Ding for that.
Any mother would find it hard to swallow the insults directed at her daughter, even if she had done nothing wrong.
The Ding family is on a completely different level from the farmers in the village.
I don't know how Sun Jinhua has the nerve to think that the Ding family must have taken a liking to her son? And that it has to be her son.
Fan Jin thought hard for a moment, but couldn't come up with anything. He frowned and said with difficulty, "I don't know. You can ask Sister Guifen. She knows the most about things in the village."
He couldn't inquire about matters between women.
Sister-in-law Guifen grew up in Shanshui Village and married Brother Li Wen. She is a kind-hearted person and knows everything about the village, big and small.
Shui Qing had only said it casually, but seeing Fan Jin's embarrassed and self-reproachful look, she couldn't help but smile.
It's normal for a grown man like him not to know the age of the young girls in the village.
It's not like he's obligated to know everything she asks.
"No rush, we might meet someday."
That's what they say, but Shuiqing also knows it's hard to see them.
Firstly, the Ding family lived at the very back of the village and rarely moved around in the village;
Secondly, her family lives in a branch village of Shanshui Village, and she rarely goes out in the village.
How could two people who never move around possibly meet?
