Half a month later, the peanuts, corn and sweet potatoes in the village were basically all harvested.
We will start planting wheat in a month.
The village plans to replace all the wheat seeds with Li Mingqing's wheat seeds.
After all, we tasted the sweetness of autumn harvest this time. We endured the same hard work but produced much more grain. Even a fool would know that we should plant wheat seeds with high yield.
The village chief came to see Li Mingqing specifically.
He was worried that there wouldn't be enough wheat seeds for the whole village.
"Uncle Village Chief, the wheat we harvested this summer is still in the house. Even if there's a shortage, it won't be much. If there's not enough, just tell me and I'll find someone to bring some over."
"I feel relieved with your words."
"Has the autumn harvest in the village been collected?"
"We have collected them and are waiting to go to the town to hand them in. A few days ago, I went to the town and told them about our village's grain. I didn't expect that the people in the town had already known about it."
Li Mingqing asked doubtfully, "Do you know?"
"Yes, it turns out that other villages have already discussed this matter."
Hearing this, he suddenly had a bad feeling and asked, "You didn't mention anything about me, did you?"
"I didn't say anything, but the new mayor obviously knew about it and even mentioned you to me. Comrade Zhao and the others in the town office praised you highly, but they were all telling the truth."
"Uncle, next time just say you got it yourself."
"Ah, what nonsense are you talking about? I, your uncle, can't do this. It's you who paid for it and did the work."
Li Mingqing smiled helplessly.
It looks like I'll be invited to town in the near future.
And it has to be a very formal occasion.
The village chief was happy for him, but he didn't take it seriously. "This is a good thing. If you become an official in the future, these can be counted as your political achievements. Even if you become an official in the provincial capital, it won't be too much. Uncle will definitely not cheat you."
"I know you're doing this for my own good, but I'm a doctor and an official, so I'm too busy to handle it all."
"It's true that being powerful is tiring, but I haven't even started being an official yet, so I won't worry about it for now."
The village chief said happily.
He is also proud of the fact that such a promising young man has emerged in the village.
Old man Li came over carrying a small bundle of firewood.
"Brother, you really fell into a blessed nest."
"You are not bad either, your family is harmonious and happy."
"I'm not even a little bit worse than you, but I'm content with what I have and don't ask for anything else."
The two of them got together to chat.
After a while, the captain came over.
But he also brought a "time bomb" - Li Xiangxia.
As soon as she came over, she acted like she was at home and said, "Jiaxue, look at my child. He's growing very fast. He'll be a tall boy in the future."
"That's pretty clever."
"You should hurry up too. Sons are better. Raising a son is a support for old age."
"No hurry, no hurry."
"If you're not anxious, then Mingqing should be. Who doesn't want a son? To be honest with you, there are plenty of people out there who are willing to give birth to a son for him. It's not that you got hurt while giving birth to a girl and can't have one anymore, is it?"
She said this with a gloating look and didn't seem worried at all.
Sun Jiaxue quickly waved her hands and said, "No, everything went smoothly in the hospital."
Li Xiangxia's face changed when she heard this.
You should know that Mrs. Zhu knew that she was pregnant with a boy a long time ago, but she still didn't go to the hospital early. She went to the hospital when she was in labor, and was discharged immediately after giving birth to the baby.
"I'm afraid Ming Qing thought you were pregnant with a boy, so you stayed in the hospital for so long."
"No, it's the same for girls."
Sun Jiaxue said calmly.
"How can it be the same? Girls are raised by others, and they will turn their backs on us when the time comes."
"Li Xiangxia, that's enough. You're a daughter too. You're an idiot for saying that. Don't gossip in my house. I've never seen someone as shameless as you gossip in someone else's house."
The captain was originally sitting at the door chatting with Old Man Li, but his face changed when he heard the words coming from the yard.
It’s really annoying. She had to come even though she was not allowed to.
As soon as he comes, he causes trouble.
Li Xiangxia said shamelessly: "You should take good care of Jiaxue. She hasn't thought about having a second child yet."
"None of your business. If I hadn't seen you holding the child, I would have slapped you in the face."
"If you don't listen to good advice, you'll suffer the consequences."
"Come on, it's unlucky every time I see you. Are you a good person? You're not even a human being. You're a parent, but you still speak without any sense of propriety."
Li Xiangxia was so angry that she said, "Anyway, no matter what, I have a son."
"When your son marries a wife who looks just like you, I'll see if you can still smile then."
The captain came over and pulled her out without saying a word.
It's really embarrassing.
"Dad, which group are you from? How can you not tell the difference between relatives and strangers?"
"Let's talk about it when we get home. This is someone else's house."
Li Xiangxia left reluctantly.
Lin Mei was carrying a small basket of leeks and passing by the Li family's door when she happened to see this scene.
"What are you looking at? You've been married to my family for such a long time and you still don't give birth to a child for my brother. Are you infertile?"
Before she could finish her words, she was slapped by the captain.
He really doesn't count what he says.
"Dad, you hit me?"
"Go home quickly."
Seeing this, Lin Mei picked up the basket and prepared to go home.
Although I haven't had much contact with this elder sister-in-law, I know that she is not an easy person to get along with.
Every time I go back to my parents' home, there is no peace.
Li Xiangjun came over and heard the voice and asked, "What's wrong? Are you okay?"
"It's okay, I don't know what happened to Xiang Xia."
"She's always like this. Leave her alone. If she says anything unpleasant, don't take it to heart."
