After the separation, the little widow Xianggong returned from the capital

Chapter 10

The grandparent and grandson get along with each other cordially and harmoniously, so Qi Qi, who grew up alone in a reorganized family and was not valued by his family since he was a child, admires him.

Qi Qi rested one hand on her stomach, looking at the blue sky and white clouds, when suddenly, the child in her stomach kicked her, she touched it in surprise, and felt an inexplicable excitement in her heart.

This is her child. I don't know what it will look like when it is born. It must be a cute little dough ball.

Although she has no father like her, it doesn't matter, she will try her best to be a good mother, give him all the love, double love, and not let him suffer from the pain she suffered when she was a child...

With something in her stomach, Qi Qi couldn't just sit idle. She just took a look at the house, but she hasn't looked at the rest yet, so she has to check the situation.

After talking to the sixth lady, the sixth lady had nothing else to do, so she went with her, and told her about the situation in the east of the village by the way.

At the east end of the village, there are about [-] acres of land, which is the lowest place in the village. Because it is next to the big river, it faces different degrees of disasters caused by floods such as spring floods, summer floods, and ice floods every year. In the end, this place became the entire village. most barren places.

There are about [-] dilapidated and dilapidated houses here, and only six houses are actually inhabited.

The sixth wife's family is the one with the highest terrain among all the families.

After going out, the first thing I saw was the only mountain in the east of the village 800 meters away. I didn't pay attention when I first came here. I didn't know until the sixth wife said that it was the mountain that the Gu family gave her.

In fact, it is not considered a mountain, but the rest of the east village is too low, which makes the pile of stones look a little higher.

Yes, it is a pile of stones, and the vegetation on it is extremely rare.

It is already the beginning of February in spring, and the other hills are already a little bit green, but the hill of her house is still bare.

I don't know what the ancestors of the Gu family thought, they actually bought this useless hill?
However, the open space at the foot of the mountain, I wonder if it is possible to build a new house there?

Qi Qi thought about going to the village chief's house tomorrow.

I have seen the old house before, but the bamboo forest behind the house is dense, and the bamboo shoots in spring seem to be easy to eat.

The small pool in front of the house, hey, why do the leaves floating on the water look so familiar?Lotus leaf?It's not like, it looks like a huge millstone, and there seem to be spikes growing on the back...

"Grandma Liu, what is that?" Qi Qi felt that this was very familiar, but couldn't remember it for a while, so she asked the sixth lady.

The sixth lady glanced at it and shook her head, "I don't know, and I don't know when it will suddenly appear. There used to be children who came here to fish, but since I have this, the children have stopped coming..."

Qi Qi looked at the big leaves covering the pool, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt familiar, so he secretly asked the system, "Xiao Dezi, do you know what that is?"

"There are ten volumes in the complete encyclopedia of plants, and three hundred merit points." The system said indifferently, "You can't afford it."

Qi Qi Heixian, "Just tell me what it is, why would you spend so much money to buy a whole set of books?"

"There is no free lunch in the world, you are overthinking." The system snorted coldly.

"Xiao Dezi, don't be so stingy, we are two grasshoppers on the same rope now."

"No, you can't open the back door. If you are caught by the pickets, you will be punished with deduction of merit points." The merit system ruthlessly advises, "Don't think about opportunism, only the merit points earned by doing good deeds by yourself are valuable. ..."

"It's okay, it's okay, I don't know how to adapt, Luo Li is so old-fashioned." Qi Qi muttered, and quickly interrupted his nagging.

If you can't remember it, forget it first, there will always be a time when you will know, isn't it just three hundred merit points, it's a trivial matter.

Putting this part aside, Qi Qi followed the sixth lady to the field near the river.

The more I walked to the river, the heavier my heart became.

The fields in Linjiang were almost completely abandoned. The soil in the fields was covered with sand and the soil quality was extremely poor. How could such fields have a good harvest.

"Spring plowing is less than a month away. Hey, if the Daqing family no longer rents this land this year, and you have a big belly, what should you do..." The sixth lady said with emotion, "This place used to be It’s a pity that it’s a fertile field, it’s too close to the river, and it’s been ruined.”

Qi Qi looked into the distance, the water level of the big river was only a hundred meters away from this field, and at a glance, there were cliffs and remnants on the other side, and the river was turbulent...

Qi Qi frowned, "The east end of this village is going to become a river beach. Without dams, it's too unsafe. When will there be a huge flood, and the entire east end of the village will be submerged?"

"Well, it was really flooded. I heard people from the older generation mention that about [-] years ago, there was a huge flood in the river, which flooded the entire east end of the village, and even spread to the village." The sixth lady looked at her. Looking at the river, he sighed, "I heard that a lot of people died in the east of the village that time. Since then, the able-bodied families in the village have all moved to the west of the village. It's really good there, with high terrain and fertile fields...

As for the embankment you mentioned, people in the village will go to work every year, but it is a pity that the river embankment is repaired and a new river is opened.Let's not think about it here, it is impossible to build the river embankment, after all, the terrain here is lower on our side. "

Qi Qi nodded in agreement, and after looking around, she knew it was impossible.

At the east end of the village is a U-shaped depression, and the opening is the Dajiang River.

But there must be some way, unless she doesn't live here, otherwise, it's too unsafe.

Hey, her family property now seems to be a pile of tatters, worthless, no wonder Mrs. Gu can give it to her.

Also, the five mu of land has to be planted, because the imperial court stipulates that good land must be cultivated and cannot be abandoned for no reason. If it is found out, it will be punished. The will has been used to this day.

Qi Qi returned to the sixth wife's house with her tired body, and immediately sat down to rest her feet. She was tired after walking around with a big belly. It seems that this body is very weak, and it needs to be exercised, otherwise it will be time to give birth When you have no strength, you will suffer.

Qi Qi secretly decided that from now on, he would walk around the east end of the village a few times every morning and evening, so as to familiarize himself with the environment and exercise his body.

At noon, the sixth wife boiled a pot of fish soup with the fish brought back by Tian Wazi, and Qi Qi was not too polite, and ate a delicious meal.

This fish is really good, it looks like Jiangyu, the meat is delicate and delicious, but the seasoning at home is a little less, and the fishy smell is a bit stronger, but for people who can't eat meat all year round, this is already delicious.

I took a nap in the afternoon, maybe I was too tired, and I slept until the sun went down.

She didn't wake up until she heard Xiaohua's excited voice in the courtyard.

Quickly got up, opened the door and went out, and sure enough, she saw a lot of things in the yard, all of which she asked to buy.
