Chapter 16 When is the chief?
Before the rainy season came, Gu Jin and Shen Jingcheng had already moved into the newly built yard. There were five rammed earth houses with blue brick foundations. In autumn, grain is placed, and farm tools are placed in one room.

On the open space to the west of the main house is the cowshed, there is a haystack near the west wall, the hut is on the southwest corner, and a large vegetable garden is on the south.

Although the two of them didn't dare to buy anything on the way to emigrate, they bought a complete set of various vegetable seeds, so the vegetable garden is now lush and full of almost all kinds of vegetables.

After another heavy rain, Gu Jin finished her lunch and walked out of the yard, only to see Mrs. Wang with a slightly swollen belly, carrying hay to Diwozi.

The woman in her belly should be a time-traveling girl, right?The younger sister who is loved by the whole family because she looks like her.

Gu Jin looked at Wang's stomach and was slightly distracted.

Because of Gu Changping's warning, Wang hasn't been close to Gu Jin in the past six months. Seeing her looking at him now, her eyes are full of sarcasm.

What's the matter, facing such a powerful little man every day, life is hard, right?

It's a pity, but if this girl didn't expose her so much back then, and I could teach her how to live under such a man, now she can only suffer on her own.

Gu Jin didn't know what Wang was thinking, but she understood the sarcasm in her eyes, and turned her head away speechlessly.

Shen Jingcheng went to see the fields on the north side of the slope, but he didn't know how the situation was.

As soon as Gu Jin reached the edge of the soil slope, he saw Shen Jingcheng walking out of the field carrying a shovel, and asked loudly, "How is it? Is there any water in the field?"

"Basically not, as long as it doesn't rain these two days, it shouldn't be a big problem." Shen Jingcheng walked towards her stepping on muddy feet, with a relaxed smile.

The land here is still very fertile, coupled with the occasional rain these days, the seedlings in the field are growing upwards, and the straw is also very thick. As long as there is no accident, there will be a good harvest after autumn. harvest.

When Shen Jingcheng got up the slope, the two of them chatted and walked back. When they passed by a weed, Gu Jin stopped suddenly and stared at the two trees that grew out of the weed. The little elm sapling is full of joy.

"There are elm trees here."

Hearing her words, Shen Jingcheng turned his head and saw two elm saplings with only four or five leaves among the messy weeds.

"Let's move it back and plant it outside the yard. When the tree grows up, we can enjoy the shade under the tree and eat elm coins in spring." Gu Jin asked him with bright eyes.

"it is good."

Shen Jingcheng couldn't help it. Hearing what she said, he picked up a shovel and dug out two small elm trees, and planted them on both sides of the door when he returned home. The land just after rain was very wet, and the saplings didn't even need water after they were planted. to pour.

As soon as the two of them planted the tree, they heard a noisy sound coming from a distance. When they looked up, they saw dozens of people had arrived at Gu Changping's nest. There were men, women and children. Mud, in a terrible embarrassment.

Gu Jin and Shen Jingcheng looked at each other with doubts in their eyes.

What's going on here?
Seeing that Gao Dazhuang and Yang Shitou were also inside, Shen Jingcheng waved to Gao Dazhuang when he inadvertently looked over.

Gao Dazhuang didn't know what he was calling him, so he ran over quickly.

"What are you doing over there?" Shen Jingcheng asked him.

"The river is flooded." Seeing that he was asking this, Gao Dazhuang told the situation on the bank.

It turned out that the water level in the river had already risen due to the hard work of the rain in the past few days. Especially this time, it did not know where the heavy rain fell. The nests were all flooded, and even the fields they had opened were also flooded.

Now the river has flowed southward for more than two miles, and the bank is definitely uninhabitable now. These people have been coming here all the way to the south. Seeing this land slope, some people want to exchange two acres of land for Gu Changping. Acres of land, settle down here.

The corners of Shen Jingcheng's mouth twitched when he heard this, and he told Gao Dazhuang to go back.

Those people are also really interesting. If you take two acres of flooded fields and exchange them for one acres of land here, who is a fool?

Of course Gu Changping was not a fool, so he didn't agree with anything.

He has two sons now, and I don't know if he will have a third son in the future, but sooner or later the family will be separated, and there will be children and grandchildren. The land on the slope is not enough for his own family, so how can he exchange it with others?

Seeing that Gu Changping had bitten him to death and disagreed, those people had no choice but to walk away with their heads bowed, but they didn't go far, they just found a random place in the open space under the slope and started to rest.

Even if this place is still flat, but the surrounding area is only higher than this slope, if the river floods here, even if Gu Changping refuses to change the land, can't people go up and hide?
Seeing that those people were rejected by Gu Changping and left, Gu Jin and Shen Jingcheng were curious why they didn't come here to ask.

However, whatever the reason, the two are happy to see their achievements.

After all, it was a waste of time to ask, and the two of them would not agree to exchange land.

The two of them didn't know that it wasn't that those people didn't want to come and ask, but they didn't dare.

After Liu Da's incident, now they all know that Shen Jingcheng is a child who can beat up three big men, so this is not a master to be messed with.

Of course, it wasn't Liu Da who went out to talk about it, but Yang Shitou and Gao Dazhuang's family.

Now in the hearts of those people, Shen Jingcheng is an evil spirit, the kind that no one dares to provoke.

In this way, people from Thirteen Households settled down on the east side of the slope. Lin Hu, who had measured the land for Shen Jingcheng and issued the title deed within a few days, brought a few yamen servants over to check the number of casualties. Anan stayed here quietly, and within a few days after returning, he brought a message that the two villages were merged here, and they were named after the area of ​​the ten-acre slope, called Shimu Village.

The people in the original Shisanhu Village didn't feel much when they heard the news, they just regretted not staying here with Shen Jingcheng in the first place. If they also settled here, not only would they not be so embarrassed by the water, but the crops they planted would also be different. will be flooded.

It's a pity that there is no regret medicine in the world, and it is too late to regret.

Amidst all the gloom and gloom, Yang Shitou and Gao Dazhuang dug the ground in silence, their eyes full of joy.

If it wasn't for the fact that they didn't have anything at the beginning and couldn't open up the land, if it wasn't for the convenience of returning the cattle and farm tools, they deliberately opened the land next to Shen Jingcheng's family's land, they must be worrying like those people now.

Among them, the two are most grateful to Liu Da. If Liu Day hadn't caused all this by mistake, they might really cry now.

Liu Da: ...

I really didn't expect it.

Shen Jingcheng didn't have much feeling about the merger of the villages, they just got together, they lived their own lives anyway, what made him unacceptable was another news brought by Lin Hu.

"What? I'm the head of the village?" Shen Jingcheng looked at Lin Hu dumbfounded, and pointed to his nose in disbelief: "I'm only nine years old?"
