Chapter 34 Borrowing Food
As for Fang Qiye, the one who helped buy Tian Mi back, because he was the youngest, he was not a few years older than Li Shi.He is fairly honest, but his family is not well off. In the past, Yuan Zhen occasionally bought more food, and would send him some filial piety.After all, he is the only grandfather among the elders.

In the evening, before the sun went down, Yuan Zhen came back as expected.

However, the harvest was really shabby, and only one wild bird was shot.

It's as big as half a chicken, and it's gone after one dinner.

In the evening, Yuan Zhen was downcast and lacked energy. It was still a month or two before the wheat was cooked, so how could this day be fixed?
Early the next morning, he went to Fifth Grandma's house with his mother and Tian Mi behind his back.

Like his mother thought, he borrowed food.His mother was getting old, and he couldn't bear to let her pull her face down and beg for help. Besides, he was already married and an adult, so he had to take care of the family.

Grandma Fang Wu's house is at the east end of the village, and she will be there in a while.

Just walking to the door, his footsteps hesitated.

At this moment, a little girl came out from the courtyard gate and grinned when she saw him, "Brother Zhen! You're here!"

This is Fang Wu's granddaughter, Xiu'er.13 years old this year, with a sweet look.The eldest of the two elder brothers belonging to Yuanzhen and Yuanjie in Fang's family is the prettiest, and she is also very close to Yuanzhen.

Speaking of this appearance, the Fang family was not very outstanding in the first place. Brother Fang Yuanzhen owes their beauty to their mother Li Shi.Don't look at Li's looks like a rough old lady now, but when she married into Fang's family, she was also fair-skinned, beautiful and long-legged. It is said that she was originally a lady from a rich family, but it was a pity that her family was in trouble, so she married into the countryside and became a peasant woman.

"Sister Xiu'er, is Grandma Fifth at home?" Yuan Zhen could only ask.

"At home, come in." Xiu'er enthusiastically led him into the yard.

Fifth Grandma Fang is the oldest elder of the Fang family, so she is respected by the younger generations in the family and is very honorable. She will never do any work in the field. She is sitting in the house drinking tea and eating Snacks, very pleasant.

Seeing Yuan Zhen coming in from the door, a trace of disdain appeared on her face. In her eyes, only rich juniors deserved her smiling face.The grandson of the poor Erfang's family came, what good things could happen.

Yuan Zhen walked into the main room with a low eyebrow and a shy smile on his face, "Fifth Grandma."

Fifth Grandma Fang snorted lazily, "Yeah."

Yuanzhen was very restrained in front of her, and Fifth Nai Fang always put on the airs of an elder in front of the juniors, and didn't look at him at all. Her arrogant and disgusted look made him very uncomfortable.Thinking of how his mother always received such cold treatment every time, he felt very sad.Suddenly, the words of begging could not be uttered.

On the other hand, Xiu'er, who followed in, saw what he meant and urged, "Brother Zhen, you should have something to do with my grandma, right?"

Yuanzhen glanced at her in embarrassment, and then at Fang Wunai, thinking that there was indeed no rice noodles at home. If he came here for nothing, what would mother, daughter-in-law, and Yuan Jie eat?So, I had no choice but to lower my face and say, "Fifth Grandma, this year's wheat is still two months away, I... our family really has no money to buy noodles..."

"No money to buy noodles?" Fang Wu's face showed a slight mocking look, "I have money to buy a daughter-in-law." Ten taels of silver is a lot, and I heard that the daughter-in-law she bought is not very good.

This Yuan Zhen couldn't refute it, and he didn't want to mention it because of Yuan Jie's illness.It's not that Fifth Grandma doesn't know what it means to be so eccentric.

"Fifth Grandma, when the harvest is harvested this year, I will definitely repay you twice." He could only promise in a low voice.

Fifth Grandma Fang suddenly smiled slightly, "Yuanzhen, Grandma Fifth, I am not an outsider, so there is nothing wrong with you coming to excuse me. It's just that I heard that something strange happened in your field today, and the wheat seedlings grew It's like juggling, it seems that you are going to make a fortune."

Yuan Zhen was dumbfounded, the news spread really fast. "Fifth grandma, this thing is strange, and I don't know what's going on."

Fifth Nai Fang looked him up and down suspiciously, "I really don't know?"

Yuanzhen understood something from that expression, and immediately said: "Fifth grandma, if I have a good idea, why didn't I tell you, we are all one family, if our fields can have a bumper harvest, I will Also happy."

When Fifth Mistress Fang heard this, her face turned down again, "Hmph, so it's God who helped you."

Yuan Zhen properly admitted, "It should be."

Fifth Mistress Fang was originally saying something bitter about him, but she didn't expect him to respond in such a way, thinking that he was hiding something and had a good idea to improve the field, but she didn't want to share it with her.So he frowned immediately, and snorted coldly, "Since you have God's help this year, why are you begging me?"

Yuan Zhen felt hot on his face, he had been talking for so long, standing here, Fifth Grandma still didn't let go of his excuses, he was a seven-foot man, and he was already very disrespectful.It seems that Grandma Wu will not borrow if she can't get a good plan, and he doesn't have to beg anymore.Big deal, he'll think of another way.

"Since fifth grandma can't do anything, then I'll go first." After finishing speaking, he turned around in a hurry, and walked out as if running away.

"Brother Zhen!" Xiu'er pouted, glanced at Fifth Nai Fang, and chased her out.

"Yuanzhen!" Suddenly, Fifth Nai Fang raised her voice and called out.

Yuanzhen stopped, suppressed the fluctuations in his heart, and turned around, "Fifth Grandma, what else is there?"

Fifth Grandma Fang spat out a melon seed skin angrily, Fang Yuanzhen's grandchildren came to the door to borrow food, if she didn't borrow it, it would not be nice to spread the word.Her Xiu'er was about to talk about her husband's family, so it would be bad if she ended up being stingy.

"Your second uncle is working in the field on the river embankment, and there is still a shortage of manpower."

When Yuan Zhen heard this, his face lit up, which meant that if he was asked to help his second uncle with work, he would be able to borrow food.So he quickly agreed, "Alright, grandma fifth, I'll go help second uncle right now."

 The click is quite high, but why didn't you collect it?Isn't it good looking?Isn't it good looking?Despise those who only watch but not collect!Despised a hundred times!
