Chapter 42 Changes

What Nuan Nuan was waiting for was his words, if he encounters any troubles in the future, he is not afraid that the government will not help to solve them.

After Huang Ping delivered the 100 taels of silver, Nuannuan gave the 100 taels and the remaining 40 taels of housing allowance to the village chief Liao Zhicai, and the leftover food was also handed over to the village chief Liao for safekeeping.

"Nuannuan, you got the money and food in a way, so you just keep it." Village head Liao felt that taking the money and food was like picking up ready-made ones, and he couldn't afford to lose face.

Besides, not all the silver and grain belonged to their folks in Qing'ao Village.

"Grandpa Village Chief, these things were originally set up by the county magistrate for us to live in. As the head of a village, it is only right for you to keep these things." Nuan Nuan hurriedly threw these things out, and said solemnly: "I have already asked other people , They are also willing to join our Qing'ao Village, our new village will be called Xinqing'ao Village from now on."

A village of 500 people is like a hot potato for Nuannuan, and it is easy to get rid of it early.

Besides, she has so much food, if someone suspects that she is the food of Tan Mo's family in the future, she will not be able to tell.

Nuan Nuan talked about it, and village head Liao agreed to accept the silver and food.

The folks in Qing'ao Village are helping the village head's family build a house first, and now they only need to cover thatch, and the food is directly moved into the cellar of the village head's house.

On the second day after Village Chief Liao took over the silver and grain, he distributed the grain per head. Afterwards, they each started cooking together, and at the same time divided the land assigned to them by the Anping county magistrate.

When chatting with Nuannuan, Su praised Liao Zhicai: "The old village head is still experienced, so everyone has nothing to say about this division."

Nuan looked up at her.

"You don't know that when the folks from Qing'ao Village come here, some people have trouble sleeping and eating. Some say who eats more and who eats less, and some worry that they will be treated differently from the folks in Qing'ao Village in the future." Su Shi said: "This action of the old village chief can be regarded as reassuring the big fellow."

Because they knew that Su's mother and son were not from Qing'ao Village, they dared to complain about this in front of her, otherwise Wen Nuan really didn't know that those people would have such thoughts.

"So," Wen Nuan crossed Erlang's legs and gnawed on the chicken wings Su's fried for her: "If I still keep those things, can I eat and drink as much as I want with peace of mind?"

Su Shi nodded with a smile: "You are a wise move!"

In Lianzhou City, Qin Yang, who returned to Fuya, reported to Qi Wen the situation in the outskirts of Anping County: "They are not living as hard as other refugees, they are already building houses under the leadership of the Wen family, and they have opened up wasteland to grow food.

"Wen Xingye, Wen Xingye's father, and Wen Qimu, Wen Nuan's elder brother, are both good farmers. It's only been a while, and the rapeseed they planted has sprouted. According to Wen Xingye, they will have green vegetables to eat in a month, and they will be self-sufficient. Self-sufficient.

The more Qin Yang said, the more excited he became: "By the way, Miss Nuannuan is planning to dig two ponds, diverting water from the wells to raise fish..."

Qi Wenli nodded straight after hearing this: "That little girl has a plan, and the folks in Qing'ao Village will also live. It seems that the rest of my salary is quite suitable for them."

"My lord, when shall we send the piglets there?" Qin Yang asked.

"Let's wait for their houses to be built in a few days. Pigs also need a place."

It turned out that after much deliberation, Qi Wenli decided that the remaining reward for Nuannuan was to give away piglets.

Wen Nuan didn't know that Qi Wenli wanted to give her piglets. She saw that every household opened up some land, thinking about the increasing number of high-yield grain seeds in the space, and didn't want to waste it.

After asking my father and elder brother, I knew that it was time to grow wheat in my hometown this season, so I used the excuse of going to the city to get a few bags of high-yield wheat seeds from the space.

Of course, the wheat seeds were not given to the folks in vain.

When the old village head distributed the wheat seeds to the villagers, he explained in advance: "These wheat seeds were obtained by Nuan Nuan from other places. Those who are willing can return the wheat seeds now."

Only a fool would be unwilling to do such a good thing!

After the wheat was sown, the big guys felt more at ease, and felt that life was more hopeful.

Qin Yang came to Xinqing'ao Village again, and found that in just half a month, the village had undergone earth-shaking changes.

The houses in Xinqing'ao Village have all been built. Although they are only thatched houses, they are neat and consistent. The appearance, structure, and size of the houses are all the same. This kind of village is really refreshing.

Looking at the fields surrounding the village, some of them have already grown green vegetables, which is very gratifying.

Looking at the steps on the hillside in the distance, they should be the terraced fields that Erlang mentioned before. I heard that the wheat seeds have been sown, and they will be harvested in May and June next year.

Looking at the smiles on the faces of the villagers and the changes in the village, Qin Yang couldn't believe it.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have believed that these people were refugees who almost starved to death more than a month ago.

Knowing that Qin Yang sent him 20 little piglets, Nuan Nuan was very grateful and gave him a bag of wheat seeds as a gift in return.

Just as Qin Yang was about to speak, he heard Wen Nuan say: "Mr. Qin, don't refuse in a hurry. This is a high-yield wheat seed that I asked someone to get. I don't know if the climate here is suitable for the growth of this high-yield wheat? It's just right now. It's the season for sowing wheat, Mr. Qin might as well take it home and try it."

Knowing that it was a high-yield wheat seed, Qin Yang would not refuse again, and made another request: "Miss Nuannuan, I would like to invite your brother to visit Lianzhou, is that okay?"

Wen Nuan had already guessed what Qin Yang and the magistrate planned when he kept asking his brother about the terraced fields, and said with a smile, "You have to ask my brother about it yourself."

It is definitely too late to plant terraced fields for wheat now, but there is still more than enough time for planting next year's early rice.

Erlang knew that the magistrate wanted to use several hillsides in the suburbs to grow food, so he followed Qin Yang and left Xinqing'ao Village without saying a word.

There are hundreds of households in Xinqing'ao Village, and 20 little piglets are definitely not enough.

Hearing Nuan Nuan's suggestion, the old village head ordered all the men in the village to suspend their work, and built a collective pig house next to the village within a day.

After the pig house was built, the old village head held a small meeting for the whole village: "Starting from today, a group of ten households will draw out one person from each household to feed the pigs in turn every day. Don't be lazy! In the future, the pigs will be killed. Meat is also distributed according to households, and those who have objections can raise it now, but if you don’t mention it now, if someone is talking behind your back in the future, then don’t blame me for being rude!”

Nuannuan and Su Shi stood on the periphery of the crowd, muttering softly.

"As expected of an old village head who has been for many years." Su said in admiration, "Look at this courage!"

Su Shi said and glanced at Wen Nuan: "But these piglets were given to you by the magistrate, why did you contribute them?"

 Thank you for your support, little cuties, love you~~
