Chapter 32 The Corn Harvest: Some People Are Envious



Today, the village chief is finally going to think more highly of Bean Sprout.

He used to be petty, even thinking that the child had been led astray.

This child is clearly more righteous than any of them.

"You're such a sensible child. Da Niu, you and your wife are so lucky."

After seeing today, who would dare say that Bean Sprout and Zhao are jinxes?

"Grandpa Village Chief, stop praising me. Hurry up and help my dad write down everyone's names, otherwise my dad's memory won't be able to remember so many people."

A burst of laughter erupted in the courtyard, and Fang Daniu scratched his head sheepishly.

The village chief wanted Chunsheng to go home and get his writing brush and ink, and Fang Sanhua raised her hand.

"Don't bother the village chief, Big Tree, you take care of it."

"OK!"

The courtyard suddenly became lively. Fang Dashu brought out a pen and ink and wrote down everyone's names and the corn seeds they needed.

People from the village who heard the news came over, and soon they wrote down the names of forty people, all of whom were heads of households.

The village chief checked the names.

“There are 53 households in our village, and 13 of them haven’t come yet. I’ll send someone to notify them.”

Fang Qing was watching Fang Dashu write his name, and she probably knew which families hadn't come.

Those were the families who had just echoed Zhang's wishes. They were usually very close to Zhang and the old woman. Fang Guangzong and Fang Xiaoshuan were among them.

“Village chief, wait a minute. I just calculated that the current list alone has already ordered more than a thousand catties. I’m afraid even if we take the bad corn, we might not be able to produce that many seeds. In my opinion, since the remaining families haven’t come, why don’t we just leave them alone?”

Everyone present was initially in high spirits, but they instantly became tense upon hearing that there weren't enough seeds.

"Yes, village chief, you saw their sour faces just now. Since they don't care, let's not notify them."

"Exactly, I doubt they would even buy it if I told them."

The village chief has more than ten acres of land, and he needed sixty kilograms of seeds just for that. He didn't want anyone else to come and take them from him.

"Okay, these are the people we'll have then. Don't write anything else on the list."
