I am Fugui

Chapter 17 Not much difference
"Hoohoo."

Gusts of wind blew the bamboo forest, making a rustling sound, and the white clouds in the sky rolled up one after another, completely covering the sun.

Jiazhen put on the only remaining water-white silk long sleeve, put on a gold bracelet, and walked out of the bamboo door with the package.

Chen Liping smiled gratifiedly, asked the bearer to put down the sedan chair, and lifted the curtain of the sedan chair himself so that Jiazhen could sit on it.

When Jiazhen returned to the county seat, he was going to have a serious talk with his daughter, and he must never go back to this terrible Xu family again.

"Fengxia, let's go, mother and I go to grandpa's house to play." Jiazhen beckoned Su Bai's slender hand, and Fengxia ran over with her samurai sword.

"Mother, what does grandpa's house look like?"

Chen Liping looked at the sweet and well-behaved Fengxia, and personally picked her up and put her in the sedan chair, "Grandpa's house is very big and spacious, with everything to eat and play."

Jiazhen followed closely behind and got into the sedan chair. The bearer caught Chen Liping's eyes and shouted, "Get up the sedan chair!"

The four bearers worked together, and the red and green sedan chair was lifted up steadily.

Chen Liping waved his hand, "Blow it, blow it hard for me, I will reward you a lot when you go back!"

The sound of beating gongs and drums sounded again in Xujia Village. Chen Liping strode away with his long gown in hand without even looking behind him.

"Fugui, Jiazhen is your woman, and she will come back as appointed." Mother Xu comforted her, but she couldn't stop her tears.

Xu Fugui patted her on the back, "Don't worry, mother, Jiazhen will definitely come back, I know."

In the previous life, Jiazhen was also taken back to her natal home by Chen Liping. During that time, his heart was really empty, and he had no energy to do anything every day.

But Jiazhen finally came back, bringing his son Xu Youqing with him.

So Xu Fugui is very confident that Jiazhen just went back to her mother's house to visit relatives, and she will definitely come back in the end.

However, seeing the sedan chair disappear in front of his eyes, his heart was still a little empty, and he couldn't help but start to miss it.

Father Xu coughed, turned around and went back to the house silently, he was no longer the old landlord.

In the past, when Chen Liping saw him, he would respectfully call Mr. Xu, but now he doesn't even look at him.

Seeing that the fun was over, everyone in the village was about to leave when Xu's mother stopped them and asked them to stay and drink.

Everyone knows the situation of Xu's family, there are so many people here, just drinking saliva, afraid that there are not enough bowls, so they all waved their hands.

Most people also sincerely said that if they lack something, they can just come and get it, and they can pick the vegetables in the field at will, and they don't need to spend money to buy them in the city.

Afterwards, everyone dispersed in a rush, and went back to their respective homes, busy with their own affairs.

Xu Fugui helped Xu's mother into the house to rest, and went out to look around, trying to find something to do, but his head was empty and he didn't know what to do.

"Master." Laishun called out cautiously holding a hoe, he had already cleared a large area and came out.

The weeds are all piled up together and can be used to ignite the fire after drying.

"The chickens and ducks haven't been released yet. Let them out to let them breathe. I'll go to the field to have a look." Xu Fugui forced a smile, picked up the hoe, and walked towards the field.

Laishun sighed behind him, released the chickens and ducks in the kitchen to find food for himself, then took out the hatchet, and prepared to build a simple bamboo pen in the yard first.

He couldn't stand sleeping with chickens and ducks every day.

When Xu Fugui went to the field, the seeds had only been planted for two days, and there was no movement. Although it had rained, the weeds in the field did not grow so fast.

He spat into the palm of his hand, and was going to tidy up the ridges, get rid of weeds, and hoe the potholes.

But after hoeing for a while, he couldn't help but see Jiazhen's figure in his head, and he couldn't get rid of it no matter what.

He was so enthralled that he didn't even know who was coming next to him.

"Fugui, you're busy."

When he came back to his senses, he looked at the fat man with big ears and a teacup in front of him, and was slightly dazed.

"What's wrong? You don't recognize me?" Long Er grinned, his big golden front teeth were very conspicuous.

This man is Long Er, the man who made him lose all his family property, and after a few years, he will also be shot in his place

Xu Fugui didn't know whether it was resentment or gratitude towards him.

"Master Long." He still called out respectfully.

Long Er generously accepted the title, grinned and took a sip of tea, and said kindly: "Let me come and see my land, you planted this? I didn't expect you to have this ability, there must be a good harvest. "

Xu Fugui looked at his smiling face all the time, and knew that he was not kind, but wanted people to see his golden teeth.

He held the hoe, nodded, and didn't say much.

Long Er took two steps, and then asked, "Just now, Jiazhen was picked up by her father?"

He nodded again.

Long Er smacked his mouth twice, as if he was just asking, he looked at the ground under his feet, and suddenly said: "The ground is well hoed, but there is no dung water, how do you think this kind of seed can grow well?"

As he said that, he patted his head, "Look at my memory, there should be no dung water in your house now, Fugui, let's see our friendship, you can use the dung water in my house as you like."

Xu Fugui smiled, "Okay."

He was worried that there was no way to fertilize the field.

Long Er shook his head amusedly, "Your boy is really different from before, that's all right, I'm leaving, come home to play cards and drink tea when I have time, I don't want to gamble."

Xu Fugui didn't take it seriously, watching him walk slowly on the ridge, looking left and right, as if he was inspecting his own country.

Seeing them, the tenants in the field held their hoes and called out respectfully to Master Long. Long Er grinned and spoke to them kindly.

After cleaning the ridges, when he got home, Mother Xu was cooking sweet potato porridge with rice in it. The kitchen was filled with the aroma of rice, which made him salivate.

"Hungry, eat more later, your Uncle Gen found a lot of mushrooms and came back, put some peanut oil to stir-fry in the evening, and cook a soup."

"Mother, when do you want to go to Osmanthus Village, I will accompany you."

Mother Xu lowered her eyes, "Jiazhen is gone, why go to Osmanthus Village?"

Looking at her son's confused eyes, Xu's mother smiled faintly, "You also know that my mother's family is in Osmanthus Village, and I wanted to go back and borrow some food so that Jiazhen could eat well."

Xu Fugui nodded suddenly, and asked curiously: "Mother, why don't I remember that you went back to your mother's house?"

Mother Xu sighed, "Does Osmanthus Village not recognize your mother?"

"why?"

"Isn't it because of your restless father, who fell in love with me at the time and insisted on marrying me back home. Your grandfather and uncle knew his virtues and they always disagreed."

"Later I married your father. When your grandfather and uncle found out, they cut off contact with me in a fit of anger. They haven't been in contact for so many years."

Xu Fugui felt a little weird, his own life journey seemed to be not much different from Xu's father
