Chapter 217, The Village Chief is Here (Please recommend and vote for me)
An Liang and others also had their holidays, and it wasn’t long before the Chinese New Year.
Li Shuangshuang was about to give birth. In early December, she started having labor pains at home.
It’s not that Anwen and the others weren’t paying attention, but there were still ten days before the due date. They had been planning to go to the hospital the next day, but who knew the attack would occur that night.
So I had to call a taxi to take me to town overnight.
Fortunately, the journey only takes more than an hour, otherwise the baby would have been born on the way.
When there was a noise in An Wen's house in the middle of the night, Grandma He was immediately awakened and hurried to help.
She took a look and found that it was still too early for her to give birth, so she immediately asked An Wen to call He Zhengnan and ask him to drive to the hospital.
When I came back, Mei Xue had woken up and was waiting for grandma in the main room.
"What's going on?" She was worried about leaving as she had three children at home.
"It's labor pains, but it's still too early for birth. You really know how to choose the right time to have the baby." Grandma He said a little tiredly.
"Grandma, please sleep a little longer. It's still some time before dawn." Mei Xue didn't ask any more questions, mainly because her grandma wouldn't know even if she asked.
"Okay, when I get old, I get tired as soon as I move." He patted his body and walked into his room.
Back in the room, Mei Xue locked the door directly and took the two children into the space.
I found some nourishing herbs on the ground, intending to give Li Shuangshuang some nourishment when she comes back after giving birth.
Xiaobai watched his master preparing medicine, and after taking a look, he woke up beside the two children.
Not to mention, since the last change in space, everything planted in it has grown very quickly.
The medicinal herbs that Xiaobai brought back had already blossomed, borne fruit, and sprouted.
Li Shuangshuang is not like her. She has been drinking space water and has already adjusted her body to the extreme. There are really not many edible medicinal herbs in the space.
You can only look for those of younger years.
Ginseng and other things cannot be eaten. She was afraid that if she ate ginseng right after giving birth, she would die from the tonic.
Don't give birth to a child without any problems, then go home and drink a pot of ginseng soup and die.
She had read one third of the medicine book, and these simple methods of nourishing the body were easy for her to master.
Half a month had passed since Boss Qian and his companions left last time, and everyone in Hejia Village knew that the He family's vegetables were sold at high prices.
An Liang, An Cheng and An Wen also sold all the chickens, ducks and pigs they raised, and everyone was very envious.
They all have them at home, but they can’t find a big enough boss to buy them.
So, some people with beating hearts began to think about it.
They were all afraid of Aunt He San's reputation, and they all ran to the village chief's house.
Village chief He has to receive many such people every day, and eventually he is swayed by his own pillow talk.
That day, the village chief came to the He family courtyard with some things.
Mei Xue knew the village chief. When she saw someone coming, she immediately stepped forward and opened the door, "Uncle Village Chief, you are here."
"Xiaoxue, are you feeling better? Are the children well behaved?" Seeing Xiaoxue, the village chief immediately said with a smile.
"It's fine. The children are all very well behaved." He stepped aside and let the village chief in first. "Village chief, are you here to look for An Ze?"
The village chief nodded and then shook his head, "Yes, it would be the same if he wasn't at home looking for you and your grandmother." The village chief said with a smile.
"Oh." Mei Xue closed the gate and shouted to the inside of the house, "Grandma, Grandma, the village chief is here."
Grandma He is washing bacon and other things with Meilian and the others in the back of the house today. The Chinese New Year is not long away, so these things need to be taken out and cleaned early so that they will be more convenient to eat when the time comes.
"I'm coming, I'm coming." Mei Xue's voice was loud. The three people behind the house also heard the call. Grandma He put down the work in her hands and walked out.
"Why is the village chief here?" Grandma He didn't have a good face towards the village chief. She was still worried about the village chief's trick on An Ze's back mountain.
When the village chief saw that Aunt He San's face was not good, he knew what she meant.
"Aunt San, I came to see you. The New Year is coming soon. I bought you some New Year gifts. Don't think it's too little."
Seeing the village chief being so flattering, Grandma He understood that this man must have something to ask her for.
After asking the village chief to come into the main hall and sit down, Grandma He said without beating around the bush, "What's the matter with you, village chief? Just tell me. You know me, an old woman, and I don't like your tricks."
Hearing this, the village chief felt a little embarrassed, but for the sake of money, there was nothing to be embarrassed about.
"It's like this, Aunt He San, you know that the conditions of the villagers are not good. And I have gained everyone's trust and became the village chief."
Without waiting for the village chief to finish his speech, Grandma He interrupted him with her hand and said, "Just tell me, what's the matter?"
The village chief was choked up, but he also knew that he couldn't play the emotional card.
“Aunt San, it’s not a big deal. The villagers see that your vegetables are selling well, and they all want to curry favor with you to make money.”
The village chief was determined to take the risk and speak directly.
After hearing this, Grandma He smiled.
"What about you, village chief? What do you think?" Haha, you have a good plan.
"Aunt San, I can't do anything about this. You know, the village is so big, and I can't ignore everyone's opinions on many things."
Okay, here we go again.
Grandma He is very annoyed by this.
"Okay, you just like the vegetables I have. Whoever wants to grow them can come and sell my seeds." Grandma He looked at the village chief with a smile.
The village chief was unhappy when he heard about selling vegetable seeds. He didn't come here to sell vegetable seeds. Who doesn't have vegetable seeds?
"Aunt San, it's not like that. We want your family to help sell the vegetables we grow at home." No need to be shy.
"I'm sorry, but I don't have the final say on selling vegetables. The boss is not blind and can tell the difference between good and bad vegetables. I can't force him to sell them."
Humph, that’s wishful thinking.
They don't even look at what they grow before they dare to sell it.
Okay, Grandma He is being arrogant.
"Aren't they all the same? Aren't all vegetables grown by anyone the same?" The village chief didn't understand.
Grandma He didn't waste time talking to him. "Well, take some of my vegetables back and try them. If you still think the same way after eating them, I won't sell any of my vegetables anymore."
Mei Xue listened at the side and secretly gave her grandmother a thumbs up.
There really is a grandma.
They had agreed at the beginning that if someone from the village really came to cause trouble, they would sell vegetable seeds. This was also Mei Xue's best plan.
Helping to sell vegetables is impossible.
Why are her dishes selling so well?
That's because of her space water.
She can't afford to be responsible for the water supply of the entire village. It's a thankless job.
The village chief was speechless and said, "Then let's listen to Third Aunt." At that time, he was also a little unsure.
Grandma He also knows how to hold back and release. "It's not that my family doesn't help the village, but the vegetable seeds we grow are different from those grown by the villagers. They are all good seeds that Anze bought from outside, and they are different from the seeds passed down from generation to generation."
Just made up an excuse.
