Chapter 92
Weisheng’s biggest headache is that there are too many people who are familiar with the original owner. Whenever he wants to make some changes, he has to find various reasons.
Rubbing his temples with a headache, Weisheng looked at the concerned and worried faces in front of him. While feeling sorry for the original owner, he also had a headache.
Among these people, there were three godmothers alone. Not to mention anything else, they all remembered the original owner's period more clearly than she did. If I suddenly told them that falling into the water was a minor matter, but that in three days there would be a hailstorm in their area, not only affecting the harvest but also injuring people... I'm afraid they'd think I'd lost my mind.
Just when he was holding the ginger soup, Weisheng had already seen the transaction terms proposed by the original owner.
The original owner said she had already taken revenge in her past life, and that she would let Weisheng do as he pleased with Ye Qianqian and Shao Xiuran. Her only request was that Weisheng repay those who had been kind to her as much as possible.
Aside from the hardships of her marriage with Ye Qianqian and Shao Xiuran, she had spent the rest of her life being cared for by others. She had received so much, yet never given anything back.
She said that she knew Weisheng understood mechanics, had medical skills, and could read the weather, so she hoped Weisheng could use what he had learned to benefit the village and Songbei Town.
Xing'an Village is a village in Songbei Town, Liquan City, Province D.
Songbei Town lies at the junction of north and south, experiencing winters as cold as those in the north and summers hotter than those in the south. Fortunately, the winters and summers are short, with temperatures remaining pleasant for nine months of the year.
The temperature is pleasant and is most suitable for crop growth.
There's a lot of arable land in the village, and there's also the annual task of digging canals and quarrying stones. As a result, there's always work to do year-round...
Pulling his mind back from the original owner's memories, Weisheng looked at the increasingly nervous crowd. He pursed his lips, and finally decided to take a risk and go for the big one.
Looking at Pang Sihai, Weisheng said seriously, "Fourth brother, I have something to say. Go guard the door and don't let anyone in."
Pang Sihai hadn't expected his sister, whom he had carried since childhood, to say that. But he was a man of his craft, so even with his doubts, he turned and left. But just as he was about to close the door, Weisheng quickly added, "No need to close the door. I'm not afraid of you hearing it."
Pang Sihai smiled when he heard that, then turned around and walked outside, sitting down at the door, his eyes looking at the yard, but his mind was inside the house.
After Pang Sihai left, Weisheng scanned the faces of everyone in the room one by one, and finally spoke slowly under their anxious urging:
"I saw my parents after I fell into the river."
"ah?"
Not to mention the people surrounding Weisheng in the room, even Pang Sihai at the door was startled.
Weisheng raised his eyes again and glanced at the crowd whose expressions had changed from worry and concern to even more worry, then continued, "My parents told me that although I am their biological child, I was also a child raised with love by the villagers. The villagers are all my parents, brothers and sisters."
Everyone who had been worried that the child was either crazy or frightened was relieved and moved after hearing these words, and some of them were so sentimental that their eyes were red.
"Good boy, we are content with you, uh, with you."
The fact that she could say this showed that she was grateful. They treated her with conscience, and she had not let them down. That was enough.
He smiled slightly, holding the enamel cup of ginger soup in both hands, and continued, "My parents said that now that I have lived safely to the age of nineteen under everyone's protection, I should do something for the parents and brothers and sisters in the village.
They also said that the most important thing right now is not anything else, but to have the village chief contact these villages in Songbei Town and start harvesting tomorrow."
"tomorrow?"
"rush in the harvest?"
When everyone heard this, they first exclaimed in surprise, and then their eyes turned to the village chief who had just arrived.
The village chief had also rushed over after hearing about Weisheng falling into the water, and he had brought some brown sugar from his home. The brown sugar in the brown sugar ginger water that Weisheng was drinking was the brown sugar that the village chief had brought.
Now hearing Weisheng say this again, the village chief naturally had to ask if there was anything else and why he said that.
Weisheng: "They say there will be hail in three days, some as big as fists and some as small as pigeon eggs. If we don't start harvesting tomorrow, this autumn's harvest will drop by over 60%."
hiss!
Even though Weisheng had a serious expression, everyone still didn't quite believe her. It wasn't that they didn't trust her as a person, but they thought she might have been frightened.
"It's better to believe it than not to believe it. The lack of hail is certainly a cause for celebration, but what if there really was?" Weisheng knew this explanation would be hard to convince others, but she continued to persuade them.
"Our village is only moving up the autumn harvest by a few days as planned, and it won't have much impact on the yield. But if we knew about the hailstorm and didn't prepare in advance, wouldn't we regret the losses we faced?"
After thinking for a moment, Weisheng added, "Besides this one thing, they also mentioned some other things. If this one thing is true, then the others are probably almost as accurate as well."
village head:"……"
Others: “…”
Pang Sihai, who was sitting at the door: "..."
After a while, the women surrounding Weisheng turned to look at the village chief. "I think it doesn't matter if we harvest the grain sooner and hand it over sooner, so we don't have to worry too much."
"Yes, even if it's not true, we have nothing to lose." If it is true, then there is even less to lose.
"Even if it's An's heart."
The original owner's three godmothers started talking one after another, and the other aunts, uncles, brothers and sisters also felt that it didn't matter whether they collected it early or late, and it was not a big deal to collect it early until tomorrow.
If they don't rush to harvest after hearing this, they might not be able to eat or sleep for the next few days.
The village chief also preferred to rush the harvest, but this was not a matter he could decide alone, so he decided to go and talk to the production team leader. Then he thought that this was a special time, and if anyone knew what Weisheng had just said, something bad would definitely happen, so he told everyone in the room to keep their mouths shut.
The people in the room rushed over as soon as they knew something happened to Zhang Zhang, which showed their character. In addition, given the original owner's memory and request, Weisheng dared to say these words in front of so many people.
Well, Weisheng didn’t have any good intentions.
She thought that since she had reminded the villagers of this matter, if they sold her out later, she could just leave.
Weisheng had enough of staying in the countryside during the seventies.
She had a helicopter and a small boat in her space. She could sneak back to Hong Kong, get some money and donate it back to Songbei Town and Xing'an Village, which could be considered as a response to the original owner's request.
Speaking of donating some money 77 years ago, donating a primary school 77 years later, and building two roads between the village and the town...isn't that also giving back to the village?
However, after the village chief had given these people instructions, he turned around and told Weisheng not to tell anyone else about this. Weisheng still responded obediently.
"Don't worry, I'll save you the trouble. Who among these people here doesn't treat me like their own flesh and blood? If I keep such a big thing secret from them, how can I be worthy of their love for me? I'm telling you now, while it's still early, so everyone can harvest their private plots in time."
Another thing is that the original owner owed the village and town for raising and protecting her, and wanted Weisheng to repay her as much as possible, but Weisheng also had his own plans.
She said this in front of so many people, firstly to test the character of these people again, and secondly to use this method to "repay" the kindness of raising and protecting them.
She couldn't keep owing this favor and let others use it to manipulate her. Now, by taking the risk of telling the hail, she could repay the favor a little.
Because Weisheng had deliberately mentioned the hailstorm first, he was able to divert the reason for the fall into the water. After confirming that Weisheng was indeed fine, the godmothers, uncles, aunts, brothers and sisters left Weisheng's house one after another.
However, Pang Sihai, who had been sitting at the door guarding the gate, did not leave with them. He waited until everyone left before asking Weisheng how he fell into the water.
Weisheng had read the original owner's memories and knew that Pang Sihai was seven years older than the original owner and had been a very shrewd person since childhood. Seeing that he still remembered the original owner's original intention of falling into the water, Weisheng couldn't help but smile.
When this person took the original owner out to play as a child, he would always put two pieces of toilet paper in his pocket, ready to wipe the original owner's butt.
Thinking of this, Weisheng was even more puzzled. He clearly had no lack of love, so how could he be deceived like that?
"Then I won't hide it from Fourth Brother. Ye Qianqian deliberately approached me. She and Shao Xiuran set a trap for me. Just now on the bridge, Ye Qianqian also deliberately tripped me, and then let Shao Xiuran, who had been hiding nearby, come out to rescue me."
Pang Sihai frowned, his face gloomy, and asked Weisheng in a deep voice, "What do they want to do?"
Weisheng: "Marriage fraud!"
"Bang!"
Pang Sihai punched the fire wall in the room, his face gloomy.
After a few minutes, Pang Sihai suppressed his anger and said to Weisheng, "I've always felt that Ye was scheming. I figured she was a woman, and at most she'd just try to trick you into giving her some food and drinks, so I let you two go."
Even a cat or dog needs to be fed every day, not to mention one that you can chat with, relieve boredom, or sleep with.
But what Pang Sihai didn't expect was that Ye Qianqian actually dared to plot against the treasure of their village.
Weisheng didn't know if Pang Sihai would act impulsively if he knew about these things, but he still tried to persuade him. "Good deeds will be rewarded in the end, and there's no need to dirty our hands just for them. Fourth brother, the most important thing right now is the quota for next year's workers, peasants, and soldiers to study at university."
That’s right, Ye Qianqian’s school place was snatched from Pang Sihai.
Although the original owner didn't say anything at the time, Pang Sihai learned some things through indirect inquiries. He willingly gave up the spot because, firstly, he didn't want to go to any university, and secondly, he wanted to help his younger sister get rid of Ye Qianqian.
When he heard Weisheng mention the quota, Pang Sihai said, "This university is the most suitable for you. It would be useless for me, who didn't even finish elementary school, to go there."
The reason why the village and Pang Sihai did not allow the original owner to go to this university was actually to protect her.
The original owner was too innocent and unsuspecting. She was also fair-skinned and soft-bodied. Now that things are so chaotic out there, with all sorts of evildoers lurking everywhere, who would feel safe if the original owner went to college in the city?
Anyway, she is a primary school teacher in the village, and her life is not worse than that of people in the town.
Speaking of this, I have to talk about the original owner's home.
Xing'an Village was considered a relatively affluent village, with many families living in brick houses. When the original owner's parents left, their family had only three adobe houses. But when the original owner was about three years old, the houses, uninhabited and in disrepair, collapsed.
Later, people from the army came to deliver things to the original owner. After hearing about this, they moved some bricks from the army. Then the village chief organized people to help rebuild three brick houses.
Before the original owner was seven years old, she lived in the homes of several godmothers in rotation. After that, she moved back to her own home. No one dared to let her live alone, but the newly built house couldn't remain empty. So, the older sisters from her godmothers' families would take turns staying with the original owner.
Later, her sisters got married one after another, and she gradually got used to being alone.
Winter in Xing'an Village lasts less than two months, and despite the extreme cold, the villagers don't have a traditional kang (a heated bed). Instead, for warmth and to escape the heat, every house has hollow walls.
The hollow two-layer walls are cool in summer and can also be used as fire walls for heating in winter.
Just when Pang Sihai punched the fire wall that served as a partition in the room, Weisheng instantly thought that he could use the fire wall tonight.

Weisheng did not plan to do anything to Ye Qianqian and Shao Xiuran in advance, but was prepared to sit back and enjoy the results.
According to the original owner's memory, if Ye Qianqian and the others still did not give up their original plan, the rumors in their memory would appear soon.
The rumors grew more and more intense that day. If the original owner had not run over to stop the man with red sleeves, Shao Xiuran would have been taken to the town on charges of hooliganism.
Life and death, fortune and misfortune are unpredictable, so don't even think about getting away unscathed.
Weisheng thought that if those rumors still appeared, Ye Qianqian would seize the opportunity to make her fall in love with Shao Xiuran and be infatuated with him.
Then, as she wishes!
~
Pang Sihai was persuaded by Weisheng, but turned around and went to find the village scorer and production team leader.
The bad guys from the city should do the hardest and most tiring work.
As soon as Pang Sihai left, Ye Qianqian came to Weisheng's house.
Ye Qianqian looked at Weisheng, who had already packed himself up, a flicker of disgust in her eyes. In the blink of an eye, she said with a look of fear: "...I'm relieved to see that you're okay, but Shao Xiuran has a fever because of saving you."
Weisheng: Why not burn him to death?
