Chapter 148 Rice Planting?

"Girl, it's such a time, what else can't you say?"

Everyone stomped their feet anxiously, and the old man Lizheng also hurriedly said: "Girl, if you have anything to say, just say it, it doesn't matter whether you can do it or not."

Everyone looked at her expectantly. What if, before, a little lady wanted to talk about the village's business?
That is simply impossible.

Women are not allowed to interfere in politics, not only in the court, but also in the clan.

But Xia Xiaoqiao was different. Everything she did convinced the villagers.

Therefore, even when discussing major issues of survival in the village, she still has a say.

Seeing this, Xia Xiaoqiao glanced at Lu Jingyuan again, and saw someone nodded to her in various ways.

Only then did she take a deep breath and said, "Third Grandfather, all uncles, since you are afraid of harvesting rice when planting rice, and afraid that it will be too late when planting bean beans, why don't you consider planting rice?"

"Planting rice?"

As soon as these words fell, everyone was stunned.

"Miss Xiucai, you don't know something. Our ancestors in Luxi Village have never grown rice!"

"Yeah, we've never seen this thing before, let alone planted it."

Everyone was obviously very dissatisfied with this idea, but Lu Jingyuan frowned after hearing this, "Planting rice?"

"When I was studying abroad, I saw it, and I even talked about it with the old man in the field."

"The rice matures in four to six months, so I'm not afraid of fishing because they grow in water."

As soon as everyone heard it, they immediately said: "Then if it matures in four months, it's fine, if it's late, wouldn't it be fruitless?"

"Yeah, this—"

Everyone had a peeing expression on their faces.

Lu Jingyuan looked sideways at Xia Xiaoqiao.

"Do you have a remedy for him?"

Originally thinking that with Xia Xiaoqiao's temperament, since she said this, she must be honored.

Unexpectedly, she shook her head.

"The maturity period of this banker is determined by God, what can I do?"

"what?"

Everyone looked disappointed, but Xia Xiaoqiao didn't care about it, and continued:
"Whether it is planting rice or bean, it is indeed a very high-risk thing. Now that it is summer, everyone should be clear in their hearts that no matter what they are planting, it is impossible to increase production, reduce production or have no harvest. That's reality, isn't it?"

"Hey, Mrs. Xiucai, what you're talking about is—"

"Just what? It's too straightforward, isn't it? But isn't it the truth?"

When the clansmen heard it, they immediately said: "This fact is true, but, aren't we thinking of something? Otherwise, what are we doing here?"

Obviously the other party was a little impatient, and jumped a little bit when he was poked at a painful spot.

And Xia Xiaoqiao was not angry, instead she said with a smile: "If you can change the maturity of the dealer because everyone gathers here to think of a way, do you think God will agree?"

"you--"

The angry blushing and thick-necked old man said helplessly at this time: "You girl, you must have a constitution in your heart, right? Hurry up and tell me, don't be teasing your clan brother."

"Third Grandpa, nothing can escape your eyes."

After Xia Xiaoqiao finished speaking, she continued to smile and said, "We can't change the maturity of this banker, but it doesn't mean there is no other way out."

"All uncles, come with me."

After a while, everyone came to the field that was washed away by heavy rain and river water.

Everyone was heartbroken seeing this.

This is the land they depended on for survival, and it is the foundation for them to gain a foothold here, but now it is all destroyed.

Xia Xiaoqiao didn't care about these things, and didn't mind that the mud in the ground dirty her shoes and socks. She went straight into the field, bent down and stretched out her hand, and caught a foot-long fish in a short while.

"Look, what is this?"

Everyone was shocked, "Fish?"

Xia Xiaoqiao smiled and threw it to the feet of everyone, then touched it again, and after a while, he grabbed two palm-sized shrimps, "Look, what are these?"

"Why are there so many fish and male shrimp?"

Xia Xiaoqiao smiled and said, "Not only are there fish and Mr. Shrimp, but there are also crabs over there."

Everyone's eyes lit up, "This, this is all silver—"

So everyone didn't care about other things, and they all ended up catching fish and shrimp.

Indeed, after the flood, there were so many fish and shrimps, and the fields were covered with water and silt, which shocked the whole village for a while.

Everyone, men, women, young and old, all joined the ranks of catching fish and shrimp.

That's a hilarious one.

The midday sun was shining down from the sky, and everyone's faces were filled with smiles.

This is not catching fish and shrimp, this is simply picking up money! ! !
All young and old joined the battle, and for a moment everyone forgot their sorrows, and their eyes were full of endless joy.

Lu Jingyuan didn't end up, he just stood on the high ground, watching everything in front of him quietly.

Looking at Xia Xiaoqiao's joyful face in the field that has already been dirty like a clay figurine, it is so beautiful and willful! ! !
Even after many years, his memory is still fresh.

That is, the feeling of freedom and joy!

"What? Everyone is catching fish in the field?"

Seeing this, Mrs. Lu was surprised, "How can there be fish and shrimp in this field?"

"Then I don't know. Everyone is catching anyway. Seventh Aunt, I can't tell you anymore. I have to hurry up, or I'm afraid it will be gone if it's too late."

The man ran away in a hurry.

And Mrs. Lu hurriedly nodded her feet and ran home.

"Hey, you lazy bastards, you guys are all catching fish in the fields, but you are all hiding in the house one by one, what is the reason for the rebellion?"

Mrs. Lu roared loudly, but unfortunately no one was afraid at all.

The daughters-in-law either looked cold or sick.

"Aniang, my husband and Erlang are so injured, I don't even have the heart to catch fish. If their hands don't heal, I'm afraid they won't be able to hold a pen for the rest of their lives."

The head of the house, Mrs. Liu, began to wipe away tears as she spoke.

Seeing this, Mrs. Lu also felt distressed, "Then damn Lu Jingyuan, why don't you kill him with a bang, and see what tortured my boss and Erlang into?"

Mrs. Liu, the head of the house, didn't say a word, just kept crying.

"Forget it, just take good care of them."

Mrs. Lu had no choice but to let her go, and the housekeeper Liu breathed a sigh of relief. Thinking of the scene where she and the peasant women were catching fish together in the mud, she couldn't help shivering.

It's impossible for her to go to this kind of dirty work and such a shameful thing.

And Mrs. Lu also knew that the eldest daughter-in-law could not be counted on for this kind of thing, so she turned to the third daughter-in-law, Hao Shi.

She usually handles all these tasks outside the home.

"Grandmother, my aunt has been ill for a long time, and now she is skinny and skinny. You, can you please find a doctor for her? My granddaughter begs you."

After speaking, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

Seeing this, Mrs. Lu put her hands on her hips angrily, "Seeing a doctor, where did you get the money to see a doctor? Didn't you see that the fields at home were destroyed? I almost ran out of food, what kind of sickness?"

After sending away the children of Sanfang, Mrs. Lu became even more upset. Now that Sanfang can't count on her, it seems that she can only count on Sifang.

"Aniang, anyway, good intentions are not rewarded. Even if I do more in the mouths of you and father, I am not an unfilial son? In this case, you should go to my sister-in-law for such filial piety. She is so filial. Will be able to share your worries."

Sifang Xiao Zhou's face stretched and said: "Anyway, our Sifang can't get a good deal if we are a cow and a horse. If this is not good, I have to slap my father. My daughter-in-law has already been educated, so I shouldn't care about it in the future." No matter what, absolutely nothing."

After speaking, he went back to the room wringing his buttocks, which made Mrs. Lu fall backwards in anger.

"evil creature--"

"One by one, do you want to piss off my old lady?"
