Chapter 2 002: Village Life 2
"By the way, who saved Sister Damei?" Mu Qingxing asked curiously.

"It's Brother Zhong Ping."

"Tsk, brother Zhong Ping is miserable. He saved Sister Damei, Mrs. Luo will definitely rely on him and let him marry Sister Damei." Mu Qingxing said with certainty: "And old lady Luo will definitely ask High gift money."

After listening silently, Mu Qinghe said with emotion: "It's better for our grandparents. If she was born in the Zhao family, she would definitely be tortured to death by Mrs. Luo."

Mu Qingxing tilted her head and said in a low voice: "I heard that Mrs. Luo wants to sell Sister Damei to the mountain people so that she can use her money to go to Zhao Shu's school."

Zhao Shu is the youngest son of Zhao Tian, ​​the eldest son of the Zhao family, and has been favored by Mrs. Luo since he was a child.

Recently, because the village chief's family sent the little grandson Mu Wencheng to the school, Zhao Shu also clamored to go to the school.

Mrs. Luo has some money in her hand, but the money is reserved for her youngest son, Zhao Chengde.

Zhao Chengde has not married a wife yet, and is still studying in the school in the town, so he spends a lot.

Mrs. Luo couldn't bear to take out the money to study for her grandson.No matter what, a grandson can't compare to a loving son.

Zhao Tian also knew what kind of virtue his mother was, so he gave his mother a bad idea and sold his niece.

It was originally intended to be sold to the matchmaker, but unfortunately the matchmaker can only pay five taels of silver.Both Zhao Tian and Mrs. Luo felt that they were missing, so they did not sell Zhao Damei for the time being.

Later, through the connection of relatives and friends, I learned that a mountain man in his thirties wanted to buy a daughter-in-law, and he could offer ten taels of silver.Luo Shi is going to sell Zhao Damei to the mountain people.

"Well, sister Damei probably knew that she would be sold to the mountain people by her own grandmother, so she jumped into the river in a fit of anger." Mu Qingxing felt sympathetic.Meeting such a relative is really bad luck for eight lifetimes.

The three sisters chatted all the way to the place where the pigweed was cut.

"Wow, Sister Qinghe, there are so many water peanut vines here." Qingcao felt that this piece of weeds was really pleasing to the eye, even better than that precious flower.

With so much grass, there is no need to change the field to mow after a while as usual.I can finally go home early today.

Mu Qinghe said: "This place is good."

Qingcao nodded, indicating that it was a good place.

The three of them took out their machetes and started cutting pigweed.

In less than half an hour, the three of them finished cutting.Then we went home talking and laughing.

Back home, Qingcao rested for a while.Then I filled a jug of water and sent it to the family in the field.

"Qingcao, you are finally here." Mu Qingli said anxiously, "I'm almost dying of thirst. This damn weather is really hot."

Qingcao quickly poured a bowl of water and handed it to Mu Qingli, "It's really hot this year, and the water level of the river has dropped a lot."

She goes to the river to wash clothes every day, so she knows the water level very well.

Mu Qingli gulped down the water, "I don't know when it will rain. When it rains, you can go to the river to catch fish."

It hasn't rained for almost half a month, and it's so hot every day.Mu Qingli felt that if it was so hot, the crops in the field would definitely not be harvested well.

Qingcao waited for her elder brother to finish drinking, took the bowl in his hand, and poured water for her parents.When they had had enough, Mu Qingli took the water bottle and poured it directly into his mouth.

Mu Shiquan wiped off his sweat, "It might not rain this day, maybe this month."

Qingcao sighed, "If it doesn't rain for so long, the crops will die."

Mu Shiquan sighed and said, "If it doesn't rain, farmers will have no way to survive."

If it doesn't rain, we can only go to the river to fetch water to irrigate the fields.Be diligent, and at least a few percent of the crops can be harvested.

"Father, I'm afraid that the water in the river will also dry up." Mu Qingli was very worried.

Mu Shiquan said solemnly: "If the river is dry, then our family will have to run for our lives."

The son's words reminded Mu Shiquan that he should prepare for the drought as soon as possible. If they really couldn't stay in the village, they would have to flee for their lives.

"Okay, what are you worrying about, let's talk about it when it really comes." Li urged, "Hurry up and go home early."

After listening to Li Shi's words, the whole family stopped chatting and started weeding.

It was getting dark, and the family went home from the field.Back home, Mu Qinghua had already prepared dinner.

After dinner, Mu Shiquan went to his eldest brother's house.When I went, I called my second brother.

Mu Shiquan was going to discuss the drought with them.If it is true, God will not give him a way out.They also need to plan ahead.

"dong dong dong"

"Here we come." Jiang Xiaopao opened the door and said in surprise, "Second brother, third brother, why are you here at this time?"

Mu Shiquan said seriously: "Sister-in-law, I have something to discuss with my father and the others."

Jiang welcomed the two into the door, "Sit in the main room, I'll call your elder brother and the others."

Mu Shiquan and Mu Shiming nodded and walked towards the main room.

After a while, Mu Shigao and Mu Dabin entered the main room one after the other.

Mu Dabin knocked on the pipe and asked, "Shiquan, what's the matter?"

Mu Shiquan said solemnly: "Father, the water level of the river has dropped very badly recently, and I'm afraid there will be a drought at that time. So I want to discuss with everyone, if there is a drought, should I prepare to flee the famine at that time?"

Hearing this, Mu Dabin thought for a long time, "If it's really dry, let's flee to the south."

Mu Shiquan asked: "Father, should we make plans earlier and get everything ready. If we really have to flee from famine, we don't need to be in a hurry."

"Wait another half a month and see if it won't rain in half a month. Let's discuss it later." Mu Dabin thought to himself, maybe it will rain later.

"Okay, listen to your father."

Mu Shigao said: "Father, tomorrow I will go to the town to inquire about the situation in other places."

"Okay, go and inquire about it."

After that, the few people chatted about other things before going to their respective homes.

As soon as Mu Shigao returned to the room, Jiang asked what to discuss.When they heard that they were discussing the drought, Jiang also sighed.

After finally living a good life for a few years, now God will not give the common people a way to live. I am really sad.

After breakfast, Qingcao and Mu Qingxing went up the mountain to dig wild vegetables with baskets on their backs.After they finished digging the wild vegetables and went down the mountain, they saw old lady Luo going to Zhong's house.

Mu Qingxing's eyes lit up, "Hurry up, Qingcao, let's follow up and have a look, this old lady Luo must be going to Zhong's house to make trouble."

After Mu Qingxing finished speaking, she rushed to Zhong's house.Qingcao shook her head, ready to go home and put the basket away before going.

"Mr. Zhen, when will Zhong Ping of your family come to propose marriage?" Luo Shi shouted loudly.

"What kind of marriage?" Zhen Shi pretended not to know.

"Mr. Zhen, don't pretend to be stupid. Yesterday your family Zhong Ping hugged our family Damei. You also looked at Damei's body. Damei is already Zhong Ping's person." Luo Shi didn't care so much, Anyway, Mrs. Zhen must be asked to propose marriage today.

"Bah, our family Zhong Ping saved your family's Damei with good intentions, but he has no other ideas." The Zhen family will not let her son marry Zhao Damei.

Although Zhao Damei is a good person, Luo Shi is not a thing.

"Mr. Zhen, your family's Zhong Ping hugged our family's Da Mei, and you didn't want to be responsible. It's really a bully." After speaking, Luo Shi sat on the ground and rolled around.

He kept yelling that Zhong Ping was a hooligan and a heartbreaker.If he is not responsible, Damei will be hanged at the door of Zhong's house or something.

Zhen Shi looked on coldly and ignored Luo Shi.

 There was a power outage all morning yesterday, and I was sweating profusely while sitting, it was really too hot~

  Hope to call soon~
