He was deceived into buying the seeds at a high price.
Because we didn't want to waste it, we asked the second son to plant it on three acres of dry land.
Before planting, he thought it would be soy beans, and when the family split up, it was passed on to the second son. He never imagined that it was actually soybeans.
Some time ago, Li Mengyue hired someone to harvest.
I heard that his adopted granddaughter used soybeans to make tofu that no one had ever tasted before.
He had never tasted it, but he heard that both the fried tofu and the bean curd cakes were delicious.
He scoffed at the time, thinking it was impossible and that the villagers were just saying that on purpose to please Li Mengyue.
But now he regretted it so much that his intestines turned green. If he had given the second son three acres of paddy fields, he would only have to harvest fourteen acres of rice.
Although Old Man Li felt regretful, it did not stop him from asking the village chief for help.
At this moment, he didn't say anything, but knelt in front of the village chief and wiped his tears.
Old Mrs. Li's mind was rarely clear. She realized the seriousness of the situation and dared not say anything.
I imitated Old Man Li and knelt in front of the village chief.
The village chief was so angry that he almost laughed when he saw Li Gui and Zhou Zhaodi in front of him.
This is because he knew that a hard approach didn't work, so he changed to a soft approach.
However, even though he knew that Li Gui and his wife were shameless, he would not really ignore them.
If the Li family's old house really ran out of food, they would definitely look for Li An immediately, which would cause trouble for Yue girl.
Besides, Li Hai has not yet moved out of the Li family's old house. Without food, how will Li Hai's family survive?
The village chief didn't want to care about it at this moment, but just cursed in his heart.
With a wave of his hand, he called on the villagers who were catching locusts.
"Everyone, listen to me. Send some people out to the fields at the Li family's old house and harvest as many as possible before the locusts enter the village."
“Bang, bang, bang!!!”
"Thank you, everyone. Thank you, everyone."
Li Gui kowtowed three times in a hurry.
Well, after hearing Old Man Li’s kneeling, I have no choice but to help him.
Some villagers saw clearly what Old Man Li was thinking.
But we also know that now is not the time to get angry, because food is the lifeblood of farmers.
No matter what, we have to wait until the grain is harvested.
After finishing their own work, the villagers were reluctant to rest and wanted to catch more locusts to sell for money.
Without even bothering to drink water, he put on his clothes that were already soaked with sweat, told his wife and children, and hurried to the Li family's field with his sickle.
"The grain at the old house has been confiscated. I'll go and lend a hand."
Li An was also angry about what his father did last night, but there was nothing he could do.
Now he saw that all the villagers were helping to collect the grain. If he didn't go, not only would he be criticized by everyone, he would also feel uncomfortable.
Some of the strong laborers in Xingying Village went to Li Gui's fields to help harvest rice, while the others went home to rest after drinking Lingquan herbal tea.
I hope that when they wake up, they will have more energy to catch locusts and make more money.
Not to mention saving enough money to buy food for three to five years, at least you should not have to worry about food for one or two years.

The prefecture adjacent to Qingshan Prefecture - Yongkang Prefecture!
As soon as the sun appeared above the horizon, the hardworking villagers of Xiyang Village got up early and prepared to go to the fields to work.
The sky looked gloomy, as if something big had happened.
Zhao Cuicui walked outside the door as usual and listened to the buzzing sound of the water.
She didn't take it seriously and continued walking out. Suddenly, her eyes widened, her face turned pale as paper, and all the strength in her body was drained away.
Countless locusts swarmed towards Zhao Cuicui.
