Rebirth in 1984, starting from beekeeping in the mountains

Chapter 23 The two brothers Crouching Dragon and Phoenix Chu!
Provoked by Fang Hongan's attitude, the angry Fang Honghua didn't think too much, stared at Fang Hongan and said directly: "If Dongzi and I hadn't gone to the county for a few days and only came back this afternoon, I would have come to see you a long time ago."

When Fang Hongan heard what he said, he knew that his previous guess was 90% correct. Seeing that he was about to speak again, he quickly interrupted him and blocked his mouth: "Then do you know how this field was exchanged?"

"Of course!" Fang Honghua nodded in style, "It means exchanging our one acre in Pingtangxia for your one acre in Niujiaowan!"

"My mother said that our one acre of land in Pingtang produced more than 5 dan of millet last year, while your one acre in Niujiaowan did not produce that much. If we exchanged the land, we would suffer a loss. But she suggested the exchange because we were relatives, and even gave us rice and chicken as a bonus!"

Having said this, he immediately became excited, took a step forward, and patted Fang Hongan on the shoulder: "Hongan! I know my mother did some things wrong before, but she really has a change of heart this time."

"We are brothers from the same family. Don't keep getting angry with each other. Listen to me. Let's exchange the fields this time. As long as you don't care about... before... before..."

He stuttered for a long time, but couldn't think of the last word. He slapped his thigh and suddenly had an idea: "Right, it should be that as long as you are willing to give up evil and join the light, you will follow my lead from now on. I guarantee that you will have delicious food and drink and live a happy life from now on."

Fang Hongan: “…”

There were several complete four-character idioms interspersed in the words that came out of his mouth. It was obvious that this stupid and bad cousin had been severely "poisoned" by some kind of literary works.

With Fang Hongan's mental age of over sixty, he didn't know how to respond.

Wang Tong, who was standing at the side, could not stand still when he heard what Fang Honghua said: "Brother Hua, you are making it sound too easy!"

His sarcastic snort immediately attracted Fang Honghua's attention.

Seeing Fang Honghua staring at him, Wang Tong was not afraid at all. He hated his aunt-in-law to begin with and avoided her whenever they went out during the New Year. He also didn't have a good impression of his cousin Fang Honghua.

Not to mention, Fang Honghua's aggressiveness this time was directed at Fang Hongan.

Turning his head to take a look, Wang Tong saw that Fang Hongan did not seem unhappy, so he simply opened up and said, "Cousin Hua, you only know that your family's Pingtangxia field produced a lot of millet last year, while cousin An's Niujiaowan produced less. Do you know the reason behind this?"

"Reason?" Fang Honghua scratched his head in confusion.

He usually only did the fun and interesting things that he liked, and never did any farming. How could he have the time to care about such things? He was immediately stumped by Wang Tong's question.

However, he couldn't be soft-spoken. Fang Honghua raised his eyebrow and said, "What other reason could there be? It's because my family's fields are good."

“Haha!” Wang Tong immediately responded with a cold smile, squinting his eyes and looking over with a teasing look, “Cousin Hua, you don’t know that the best fields in your entire Shiwan Village are in Niujiaowan! Many people in our village know this!”

"What?" Fang Honghua was stunned. "The fields in Niujiaowan are the best? It's so far away, what's so good about it?"

He looked incredulous. Seeing that Wang Tong didn't explain, he grabbed Xie Dongqiang's hand and said, "Dongzi, do you know?"

When Xie Dongqiang was asked this question, he frowned and scratched his head a few times, as if he remembered something: "Okay... it seems so! I remember my father said... Niujiao Bay is the treasure bay of our Shiwan Village. I thought there was a treasure hidden in the bay at first, but later I asked my fourth uncle and found out that it was because the fields in the bay were good and they would produce a lot of anything."

“Oh, that’s it!”

Fang Honghua was a little confused after hearing this, but then he thought of something and immediately looked puzzled: "Then why do people say that last year our fields in Pingtang produced more millet than those in Niujiaowan?"

"This..." Xie Dongqiang had obviously heard this as well, and was stumped for a moment. He scratched his curly hair several times, and finally thought of something. He excitedly pulled Fang Honghua's hand and said, "Brother Hua! Don't you remember what we did last year...last night?"

"what's up?"

"That's it, the fields under Pingtang! We went there at night!"

"Pingtangxia? At night?" Fang Honghua thought for a moment, "What did we do with stealing the rice fish from Liu Laizi's house?"

"No!" Seeing that the matter of stealing the rice fish was exposed, Xie Dongqiang quickly grabbed his hand and continued to remind him, "Fang Qingshun's house, water!"

"Oh!"

Hearing this, Fang Honghua clapped his hands and finally remembered, and pulled Xie Dongqiang: "Just say it directly, what's there to hide? Didn't we just intercept the water pumped by Fang Qingshun's family last year and diverted the water to our fields? What's there to be afraid of? Fang Qingshun's crazy woman has shouted several times that she wants to seek justice from my family, but she still doesn't dare to come!"

"Hahahaha!"

At this point, Fang Honghua did not feel embarrassed at all, but laughed proudly, "That's what happened. It turns out that...last year, our Pingtang field produced a lot of millet, and it was all thanks to the two of us."

"Of course not! Hahaha." When Xie Dongqiang saw his elder brother like this, all the worries in his heart immediately disappeared, and he also laughed triumphantly.

"..."

This scene left Fang Hongan and Wang Tong speechless.

Fang Hongan was looking at the pair of "Crouching Dragon and Phoenix" in front of him with the attitude of watching a monkey show.

Wang Tong couldn't stand it anymore when he saw these two shamelessly showing off this kind of thing as an achievement: "Brother Hua, now you know why my aunt-in-law wants to change this field!"

"Oh! Got it! I was wondering why my stingy mother is so enthusiastic this time!"

As he spoke, he curled his lips, looking like he was realizing something only too late.

Seeing him like this, Wang Tong quickly said, "So... Cousin Hua, this exchange of land is totally unfair to Cousin An! Don't you think so?"

"Yeah!" Fang Honghua nodded in agreement. "Looking at it this way, it's indeed a bit unfair!"

"Then... don't change it!" Wang Tong said, ready to cut the Gordian knot and end this inexplicable conversation.

"No!"

Fang Honghua, who was nodding, suddenly twitched his head: "I think we should still change it?"
