Chapter 143 Village Meeting



Then, the two went to Li Qiong's yard.

Chen Tan didn't let Shen Jinquan in. Just now, Xia Liya said that her father had bought some food and asked her to move it herself. Shen Jinquan heard it, so if she took some out of the space, there would be no suspicion.

She went in and carried out 100 kilograms of rice, 100 kilograms of wheat, 100 kilograms of rapeseed, and 100 kilograms of old corn cobs.

There was a stone mill on the tea mountain. She took it out from the space and let them grind the powder themselves.

Xia Jianguo bought 200 kilograms of rice and flour each.

She packed thirty kilograms of each item and stored the rest in space.

After returning, she sent the 60 kilograms of rice and flour back home, pulled a basket of vegetable seedlings from the backyard, and followed Shen Jinquan to the tea mountain.

Now the road to the tea mountain has been repaired and is smooth. It takes more than an hour by ox cart to reach Kaoshan Village at the foot of the tea mountain.

Outsiders are not allowed to go to the tea farm at will, so Chen Tan can only go to Kaoshan Village to find Song Che.

Kaoshan Village is a farm built by an old wealthy man for tea farmers. In addition to the houses for the people, there is a large courtyard with two entrances at the entrance of the village, which is where tea is fried and packaged.

Now, the yard is still a place for frying tea. The male protagonist of the book and more than 30 educated youth live in the backyard and are responsible for tea production.

Song Che lives in the home of the heroine Meixiang.

It was clearly a good thing to be close to the girl, but Song Che ended up being the second male lead. What a fool he is when it comes to emotions.

After complaining in his heart, Chen Tan took out an apple and asked the child who was digging wild vegetables on the roadside to report to Song Che.

After waiting for more than half an hour, Song Che came running over.

When I saw the things on the ox cart, especially the basket of eggs, I felt deep gratitude and respect in my heart.

"However much it costs, we will pay you back in the future."

"No need to pay it back." Chen Tan's eyes were a little vague. After all, I owe you.

"If you need anything, tell me and I'll buy it for you."

As she spoke, she took out the vegetable seedlings and vegetable and fruit seedlings, as well as ten sweet potato seeds that she had grown with the spiritual spring water. The sprouts on them were lush and green. As long as they were taken good care of and not destroyed by wild beasts, there would be no problem in harvesting 10,000 kilograms of sweet potatoes from one acre of land after the sweet potato vines grew up and were transplanted.

"I asked someone to buy this from an agricultural experimental field. The yield is better than before, but it's more susceptible to insects."

The vegetables she planted in the back mountain attracted insects and birds. Fortunately, she had space and could collect the insects directly and take them to the farm to feed the chickens.

Song Che thought of the vegetables grown in the backyard of Chen Tan's house and happily took them. "I will never forget your kindness."

"Haha," Chen Tan smiled faintly and took the basket of eggs to the ground. "This is for Sister Zhiyan. Tell her what she wants. Just ask. Don't hesitate."

"Okay, I'll give it to her myself."

"Don't forget to build the house, you only have two months." Chen Tan reminded again.

Song Che nodded and said, "Construction will begin in three days."

If we hadn't been too busy with spring plowing, we would have started construction long ago.

Seeing him so confident, Chen Tan felt a little relieved.

Without staying long, he went back with Shen Jinquan.

When Qin Li returned home in the evening, he felt warm in his heart when he heard that she had delivered food to the tea mountain.

He kept the words of gratitude in his heart and wanted to thank her with practical actions.

Chen Tan took out the seeds given by Yao Jianfeng and asked him to go to the agricultural base in the county to see how they did it.

Qin Li did not refuse and said that he would go after the foundation of the house in the tea mountain was laid.

The next day, at dawn, Qin Li took Chen Tan to the brigade headquarters.

More than a thousand people in the brigade have gathered in the brigade.

Chen Tan finally saw the heroine Meixiang.

As described in the book, she has a beautiful appearance, fair skin, and a gentle personality. She is like the sister next door and exudes a maternal aura.

Also coming with her was the male lead, Tang Mingxuan, wearing a white shirt tucked into the waistband of his black trousers, which made his tall and thin body look even more even and slender.

He is very handsome, and his skin is white, tender and smooth, probably because he uses lotion all year round.

He has a sunny and cheerful personality, and his speech is very contagious. He is like a sleek crane, and he is the focus wherever he goes.

The male and female educated youth living at the brigade headquarters all gathered around him, chatting about topics that belonged to them, the city people.

The heroine Meixiang's eyes were slightly resentful, and she glanced at him from time to time.

Although Qin Li did not hold any position in the brigade, he was like the backbone of the brigade, and Fang Desheng took him with him on all matters big and small.

Just as the two of them had set up the podium, three commune cadres arrived on bicycles.

They came specifically to preside over the tea picking in the mountains. After exchanging a few pleasantries and talking about the arrangements for tea picking, Fang Desheng shouted to everyone to be quiet with a loudspeaker.

More than a thousand people huddled in their corners, not daring to chat anymore.

Fang Desheng stood on the high platform, his voice as loud as a bell.

"Dear members, fellow educated youth, today is the day we go into the mountains to pick tea. Unmarried women between the ages of thirteen and twenty, please ask Comrade Meixiang to sign up."

As he spoke, he looked at Meixiang, applauded her, and motioned for her to go on stage.

Meixiang walked onto the stage confidently and bowed deeply to the leaders on the stage and the members and educated youth below.

"Hello everyone, my name is Meixiang, and I'm in charge of tea picking. Once you get to the tea mountain, you can come to me if you have any questions."

As she spoke, she looked at Tang Mingxuan in the audience, "Tang Zhiqing is a technician at the tea mountain and one of the people in charge of picking spring tea this time. You can also look for him."

After she finished speaking, Tang Mingxuan walked onto the stage with a smile and talked about some precautions for entering the mountains and what they needed to bring.

He had a gentle and warm smile, and he had dressed up specially today. His words were friendly and humorous.

In the audience, whether they were the little girls from the Hongyao Brigade or the female educated youth, they all stared at him with shyness and admiration in their eyes.

After Tang Mingxuan finished speaking, Fang Desheng asked him and the old educated youth at the educated youth site to register the people from each village who were entering the mountains.

He, Qin Li, and Meixiang accompanied three commune cadres to the meeting room of the brigade headquarters, and Chen Tan also went with them.

Qin Li brought her there under the pretext of making tea.

Qin Qiuniang had taught Chentan how to make tea. She also liked drinking tea in her previous life. Although she had not deliberately practiced the art of tea making, after Qin Qiuniang's instruction, the aroma of the tea she brewed now had already conquered everyone in the room before it was even served.

The three cadres couldn't help but look at her curiously.

It's really rare to find such a quiet and bright girl.

Fang Desheng introduced with a smile, "This is Qin Li's wife, Chen Tan."

He didn't like this girl very much at first. After experiencing the Liuxu family separation incident, he believed what his wife Zhang Lirong said. Chen Tan was just a lotus root person, with a fair and clean face and no aggressiveness, but in fact, she was full of tricks.

The girl in his family couldn't even withstand one of her moves.

Okay, a man like Qin Li deserves someone like this.

"She is Chen Tan!"

Meixiang heard Song Che talk about Chen Tan, saying that she was an unremarkable girl who was not even one tenth as pretty as she was.

But she thought that she was not even one-tenth as good as Shen Tan.

Chen Tan smiled at her, "Hello, Sister Meixiang."
