Chapter 317 Washing Supplies (1)
Su Qingqing took a visual inspection and found that it was far away from the water source, and the project of digging ditches didn't seem to have arrived here.

It is more difficult for farmers to water, which may be one of the reasons for the barren land in Xiaoju Village.

"Young man, do you know where the village chief's house is?" The carriage entered the village, Su Dahai didn't find any idlers sitting outside, so he asked a child.

A child is the most unwilling to be underestimated by others, and he will be happy when he hears Su Dahai call him. "Yes, I will take you there."

A few more children came into the village with straw baskets on their backs. When they saw the children leading the way, they asked curiously, "Goose, who are they?"

"I don't know, they came here to find the village head." The child replied with a smile, "I can't find a place."

"Really, then you should lead the guests there carefully and don't be naughty along the way." The older child told him.

"Understood, we won't be naughty." The children who followed rushed to answer.

The short conversation made Su Qingqing feel good about this village.One side feeds the other side, and the children are so well-educated that it is inseparable from the precepts and deeds of the adults in the family.

"I'll give you sweets." Su Qingqing opened the small door and got out of the carriage.

Su Ye carried the basket and grabbed some candies to distribute to the children.

"No, parents said, you can't take other people's things casually." Several children answered with their hands waved.

"It's not taken, we sent it." Su Ye teased them.

"That's even more unacceptable. Since we haven't done anything for you, we can't accept your kindness for no reason." A boy stood up and said politely.

This is a typical explanation for doing nothing and not being rewarded.

The villagers didn't know the connotation of this sentence, but they used their actions to influence the next generation. Su Qingqing nodded. The folk customs of this village are indeed very good.

"If you are willing to show me the way, you have done a good deed. If you do a good deed, you should be rewarded, otherwise our conscience will be disturbed." When it comes to talking, Su Qingqing is amazing. I think that in the university debates, I was stunned. Kill the whole school without enemies.

Coaxing these children is of course even easier.

The children were really intimidated by her, "This?" The children stood there in embarrassment.Leading the way is just a matter of effort, but these candies are obviously expensive things, and the rewards are too heavy.

"Take it," Su Ye gave a handful by himself, regardless of the price, "give it to the friends in the village to taste together."

"Okay, thank you." Upon hearing her suggestion, the eyes of the children lit up, and everyone saluted her respectfully.

"This is the home of the village chief." A group of children led them to a thatched hut and stopped.

This house is no better than other residents in the village. The walls are made of mud, the roof is covered with thatch, and the yard is surrounded by some fences. A group of hens are leisurely planing and eating in the yard. The dustpan is carefully picking up the sundries mixed in the beans, and the two young children are also wisely helping to pick them up.

"Grandma Sun, you have guests." The children stood outside the fence and shouted in unison.

"Who is it?" The woman stood up and walked out, and then she saw Su Dahai and the others in neat clothes, she looked them up and down with shrewd eyes, "I don't know where the guests come from? What's the matter with our house? "

Su Qingqing felt somewhat satisfied when she saw that although her clothes were worn out, they were tidied up cleanly.Hearing her polite words again, his satisfaction increased a bit.

"Grandma, we are from Qingxi Village. This is the village head of our village. I want to discuss something with your son." Su Qingqing said with a smile.

Su Dahai stepped forward and greeted politely, "Your family's Village Chief Tian has been to our village to exchange food."

"Oh, so that's how it is." Mrs. Sun became enthusiastic, "Fortunately, the seeds in your village are good, and there was a good harvest that year."

"We call it coming and going." Su Dahai replied modestly.

"Tian Yong and his daughter-in-law went to weed the field, so I'll have someone call him back." Sun quickly stood up and was about to find someone.

"Grandma Sun, let's go." The children outside the fence hadn't left yet. They were embarrassed to accept so many candies from Su Qingqing, and now they saw that they could help, so they volunteered to find someone one by one. "We know where the village chief is."

"I'll go to the house and boil some water for you to drink. You can sit in the yard first." Sun stood up embarrassedly and said.

"No need, we're not thirsty." Su Qingqing stopped her.

"Then why are you so embarrassed?" Mrs. Sun felt that she had neglected the guest, and her face turned red with embarrassment.

"You're welcome, we're really not thirsty. The scenery here is beautiful, let's take a look." Su Qingqing said with a smile.The small courtyard is not big, but it is tidy, and it is not difficult to see that the owner is a hardworking family.

"The scenery is nice, but it's a pity that the land is too barren, and the crops are not harvested very well, unlike your Qingxi Village, which has ample water." Sun saw that although they were dressed better, they did not put on airs, so they chatted with them openly up.

"Su Ye, go to the carriage and take out the gift you brought." Seeing the two children looking at them shyly, Su Qingqing suddenly remembered the delicious food in the carriage.

"Oh, come here as a guest, what gift do you bring?" Mrs. Sun hurriedly stopped her.

"You're welcome, I just made some things at home and didn't buy them with money." Su Qingqing replied with a smile.

While speaking, Su Ye had already brought over the basket containing the presents.

Because she liked the children in this village, Su Ye was not stingy, and brought a lot of candy and snacks.

"Come on, come and have a taste." Su Qingqing grabbed a large handful of candies and handed them to the two children, and took two breads made in the morning in one hand, and also sent them over.

"Oh, it's too expensive, we can't have it." Although Sun has never eaten candy, she knew that these things were not cheap when she saw the package and smelled the smell of bread.

"Grandma Sun, you're really welcome. We made these things ourselves. You can try them too." Su Qingqing insisted on stuffing the bread and candies into her hands, and the child hid behind their grandma and poked out his head in embarrassment. face.

Seeing her sincerity, Mrs. Sun no longer refused, and gave the candy and bread to the child behind her.Only then did the child eat the bread and candies slowly.

"Mother, ouch, it's really you, Brother Su." A black-faced man outside the fence greeted them loudly.

Standing beside him was a young daughter-in-law and a man in his fifties. They all looked at Su Qingqing and the others curiously.

"There's a lot of work in the field, isn't it?" Su Dahai stood up with a smile, and Su Qingqing and the others also stood up.
