After transmigrating into a stepmother, I transformed my whole family to work on farming

Chapter 179 Worry about pests
After being reminded by Liu Ji, several officers turned back to look at the four people reporting to the official, "Which one of you is disabled?"

The four of them all stretched out their hands, and they were about to say that their hands were swollen from her blow.

Who would have thought that the outstretched hand was white and clean, with no trace of bruise at all.

Liu Ji immediately shouted: "Where is the disability? You are so bold and cunning. You dare to tease Mr. Cha and frame others. I think you are the ones to be arrested!"

He is skilled at raking the ground.

The officer's expression changed, and his oppressive eyes fell on the four reporting officers. The four of them were on the verge of tears. They only pointed at Qin Yao angrily and said that she was the one who beat them.

But as for why there were no scars at all, they couldn't explain the reason.

Only then did Qin Yao get off the bullock cart, walked to the officials, cupped her fists and said:
"Several officials, my name is Qin Yao, from Liujia Village. I just bought cattle at the cattle and horse market. I had a few arguments with these four people. They may be angry and want to retaliate against me, so they deliberately falsely accused me."

As soon as the name Qin Yao was said, the four officials who had just thought she looked familiar suddenly showed expressions of admiration.

They all shouted in unison, "It turns out to be Madam Qin, the hero of the bandit suppression!"

"Disrespect, disrespect!" The four of them saluted Qin Yao in turn, looking at the four reporting officers in confusion.

How could the heroine despise the king and act recklessly?

It must not be her fault!

Because of the positive and glorious image left to the government when they suppressed the bandits, and Qin Yao's unhurried explanation, the officials directly directed their anger at those four people.

"Excuse me, it's okay now. You should leave the city quickly, otherwise it will be too late. Leave these four people to us, and we will definitely clear your name, Madam Qin!" the leading officer said to Qin Yao with a smile.

Qin Yao cupped her fists and thanked her, then turned around and got into the car, leading the whole family out of the city gate slowly.

As soon as they left, four people's anxious explanations and cries of injustice came from behind.

Not surprisingly, he shut up under the angry rebuke from the officials.

Qin Yao didn't care what would happen to those four people, but she still had to explain when faced with Liu Ji's unhappy look.

"We wanted to buy cattle, but they lowered the price to prevent the seller from selling. But later the seller sold it to me, and we had a little quarrel. Is that right, dad?"

Qin Yao looked at Old Man Liu with a smile.

Old Man Liu's eyebrows twitched, and he smiled with poor acting skills, "Yes, that's it. Lady Yao didn't break their hands at all."

Siniang immediately corrected her, "Grandpa, that's not a discount, that's a misalignment. If your hand is broken, it's impossible for grandma to put it back on again."

After saying that, the little girl looked up at her eldest brother expectantly, "Brother, am I right?"

She remembered that Aniang told her eldest brother and second brother like this~
Dalang took a weak look at his father's dark face and his mother's speechless look at the sky. He sighed softly and pushed down the little head that was raised in front of him, "Shut up."

Si Niang: Meow meow meow? ? ?

"You are really good, madam!" Liu Ji sneered in Qin Yao's ear through gritted teeth.

It almost got them into a lawsuit.

Qin Yao glanced over with sharp eyes, "I never make a mistake in doing anything. Do you think they have any evidence?"

"Ah, this." Liu Ji couldn't help but give a thumbs up secretly.

Then he said to He and Liu Zhong in a relaxed tone: "It's okay, it's just a misunderstanding."

He shook his head, "No, no, no, something happened."

The couple's hearts were tense.

"The third brother, sister, and sister-in-law don't know that you are so popular in the county. The poor men are so polite when they meet you." The couple breathed a sigh of relief, so that was what they were talking about.

Qin Yao smiled modestly, "It's okay, it's okay. I've basically met everyone in the Yamen."

He's smile froze, his siblings were so humble.

Qin Yao turned to look at the piles of goods behind her and naturally changed the subject, "What did you buy? So much?"

Now there are two cars, so everyone can ride in the car.

Old man Liu and Liu Zhong squeezed into a carriage with six children. The ox cart was used to carry goods. With Liu Ji as the driver, Qin Yao and He's sister-in-law could also sit in the back of the carriage.

The big dark gray buffalo is very strong. It pulls the cart very steadily and is obedient. It is easier to use than a carriage.

Moreover, they can still farm, so I instantly felt that these 16 taels were well worth it!
Mr. He lit up the goods on the car, "This is peanuts, that is kidney beans, and there are some dry goods from the south that will be used for making soup later."

I buy vegetables and eggs in the village. I have to go back to Grandma Wang and ask her to help keep the eggs and don't sell them.

Qin Yao was a little surprised, "With so many ingredients, how many dishes are you planning to cook?"

"Mom said it's rare to have a happy event, so I'm going to do ten of them."

Speaking of this, Mrs. He remembered that she had to go around to inform her relatives and friends, and expected to ask Qin Yao: "Can you lend us your bullock cart?"

Qin Yao waved her hand generously, "Of course, but remember to feed it before returning it to me."

He was so happy that she hurriedly said that she would not treat her cattle badly. She had already imagined in her mind the surprised expressions of her parents, brothers and sister-in-law when she drove the cattle cart back to her parents' home to inform them.

Just thinking about it made her feel happy.

Seeing that she was smiling happily, Qin Yao shook her head helplessly and looked up at the scenery on the road.

"Ah~"

A sigh came from the carriage, and Old Man Liu said sadly: "Seeing that the sky is getting sunny day by day, I am afraid that the snow that is so cold in spring will not fall again."

Jinbao asked curiously: "Grandpa, wouldn't it be better if it didn't snow? It's snowing and freezing to death, why aren't you happy?"

Old man Liu looked at his stupid grandson angrily, "You have lived for so many years and you don't even know this? Are you still a farmer like us?"

"I didn't want to be a farmer in the first place." Jinbao glanced at Dalang Erlang secretly. He also wanted to go to school. Who likes working in the fields?

Old man Liu touched his little head. He looked so stupid and stupid, but he didn't know that his father was more intelligent than his mother.

The few young ones all looked over curiously and patiently explained: "We farmers depend on the weather for food. If the season is not right, the next year's harvest will be affected."

"Do you know why everyone says auspicious snow heralds a good harvest?"

Several people shook their heads and asked Grandpa: "Why?"

"Because snow can freeze the eggs of pests underground, the crops will grow well next year. But if there is no snow to freeze these eggs, when the weather warms, they will break out of their shells and harm the crops."

Speaking of this, Old Man Liu couldn't help but shudder when he thought of the inhumane locust plague 20 years ago.

Dalang asked nervously: "Grandpa, didn't it snow a little in the twelfth lunar month? It should also freeze to death a lot of insect eggs, right?"

Old Man Liu nodded slightly, but his sorrow did not diminish.

If the harvest is less, life will be more difficult. Naturally, we hope that things can continue smoothly.

　It’s the end of the month and I’d like to ask everyone for some monthly passes.

　　Five updates tomorrow.I hope everyone has a great time during the National Day holiday!
