"Okay, let's cut the one over there first." Erwa's father also said, everyone knows what He Huaniang is, and they don't want to have unnecessary quarrels.

Seeing that Erwa and the others did not ask her to return the few handfuls of rice to them, Lotus Lady happily walked up to her son and said, "Ergenzi, look, what is this? I'll go to other people's rice fields and cut a few handfuls." , our next season's rice seeds will come."

"Then I'll cut a few too." Er Genzi said.
