Chronicle of Farming in Muxianfu

Chapter 22

Mu Ai stood in her one-acre experimental field, listening to the nagging of this middle-aged woman named Fat Aunt, she was really depressed.The sunflower leaves are next to each other, covered tightly, no wind can get in, and the sun is shining again. She is very happy in her heart. If it is not for this month's hard work, the spiritual energy can be used freely. I am afraid that she will not be here today. It's about to be sun-dried.

For a month, she did not continue to water the sunflowers and sweet potatoes, but let them grow slowly according to the natural law.Compared with the ordinary-looking sweet potato seedlings like wild vegetables, sunflowers are much more eye-catching.Now each plant is two meters high. Seven or eight days ago, golden flower discs just bloomed, growing quietly every day, while moving with the sun, looking from a distance, it is simply a sea of ​​golden flowers.Both grandma and Shuan Shuan also like to take a stroll in the field in the morning or after dinner, and Shuan Shuan would always smile and pick off two petals and stick them on his forehead.

The day before yesterday, I don’t know a villager who passed by here by chance. He was very surprised when he saw it. In less than half a day, everyone in the village was spreading the word that those novel things planted by Grandma Li’s house had bloomed and dazzled like gold.

As a result, the courtyard door of their house could not be closed, and many people came to see Jinzihua.

The men just treat it as a novelty and forget it after seeing it.But the girls and daughters-in-law in the village are addicted to it. As long as they have free time, they will definitely come here to have a look. After a few days, the old lady has no energy to deal with it. Li pointed out that Shuan Shuan embroidered to hide safety.

Mu Ai was left alone and had no choice but to bite the bullet and receive the reception.It's okay to meet those shy little daughter-in-laws, such as Qiao Niang, just take them for a walk and chat occasionally.However, it was over when she met those middle-aged women who she should be called Auntie according to her seniority.

From the end of the field to the end of the field, I will pull her to praise after reading it, and then I will turn a corner and ask, where is the home, who is there, why is it difficult, and will they be beaten in the future? Planning to find someone else, wait, wait, etc. Mu Ai was annoyed, and couldn't look at each other glaringly, so she had to deal with it lazily.

And this fat aunt is the most difficult one to deal with. She is a well-known quick talker in the village. She loves to inquire about other people's private affairs. Grandma Li Si is very powerful, and she has never been to the door.This time, I took the opportunity to come to see Jinzihua, and questioned Mu Ai thoroughly.She has a thick skin and is not afraid of the sun, and she has been talking for almost an hour in the sun.

Mu Ai is thinking about whether to pretend to fall to the ground due to heat stroke and scare her away.Well, this fat aunt might also say that she was tired, and just before her acting skills exploded, she finally remembered that the pigs at home hadn't been fed yet, so she hurried back.

Mu Ai let out a long breath, really bored and tired, looked around for no one, ignored her dress, got into the sunflower field, found a flat place and lay down.Close your eyes, take a deep breath to calm down your impetuous heart, quietly feel the faint spiritual energy from the sunflowers and sweet potato seedlings around you, and then separate a small amount of spiritual energy from the space and pour it in, spreading throughout the entire field, and immediately There is a vague emotion similar to joy feedback from these plants.

This is an interactive game she discovered by chance a while ago. Of course, she can't communicate with plants, but she can feel some vague emotions.

During this period of time, she didn't practice hard day and night, delved into the method of using spiritual energy, and she got a little gain.The aura she could control at first was very weak, barely able to cover her whole body and keep her cool.Now it's thicker, I don't know how many times, when you concentrate, you can even feel the aura condensed into a transparent film on the surface of her body, a bit similar to the appearance of a space barrier, but I don't know, the aura will be thicker and more solid in the future Some, can this film finally be stretched to become a protective space against external attacks.Of course, this idea seems a bit far-fetched to others, but Mu Ai really took it as a goal. The space ring is magical, right?Didn't she pick it up too!Time travel is magical, right?Didn't she wear it too!Then why couldn't she figure out the protective barrier?
Not only the use of spiritual energy, but also the mental nerves have been strengthened a lot after such a long period of exercise.For example, before harvesting a fruit tree into the space, she needed to put her hand on the tree first, but now she no longer needs to touch it, and within two meters, she can immediately put it in with a move of her mind.And if you need to take something out, you don’t have to have it in your hand. Within the same two-meter range, you can appear wherever you want.

This discovery made her suddenly come up with a way to protect herself. If you put a pile of stones in the space, when you encounter danger, you can control the distance and speed, and suddenly let them appear in the sky, only relying on the impact of falling, It shouldn't be a problem to kill or injure a few people or beasts.Of course, when you want to scare people, you can say a few "spells" casually, point your hands to the sky, and a shower of stones will rain down, which is definitely very deterrent.It's just that this idea cannot be put into action for the time being, because the range of two meters is too small, and if one is not well controlled, she will become the first victim.Or wait until the control range is large in the future, and then experiment.

Thinking about messy things like this, when the mind is divided, the weak induction between the wood ai and the plants is broken.She also lay down for a long time, and it was time to go home to make lunch, and then discuss it with grandma, it is not an option to entertain guests all day, if it is not possible, she will not wait for the corn to be harvested, go to the city to find some people who have built The old master of the big house, hire some helpers, and start building her house. If you get busy like this, those three aunts and six women will be embarrassed to come here twice a day.

Patting the dirt on her body, Mu Ai thought as she walked home, and felt more and more that this was a good idea.

After a few steps, I walked through the small door next to the ear room and entered the yard. Just as I was about to lift my legs to go to grandma's house, I heard someone shouting outside the gate, "Is his fourth grandma at home?"

Came to see flowers again?Mu Ai's face immediately turned bitter, it was already noon, why did people still come to the door, they couldn't wait until the afternoon when it was not hot.

She was slandered in her heart, but she still turned around and went to meet her. Thanks to Sunflower, her home has become a popular place in the past few days, and she also met many people in the village.The courtyard door was opened, and the first person to step into the courtyard was the third aunt Liu who lived at the entrance of the village. Didn't she just come here yesterday? Why is she here again?Looking outside the courtyard gate, there is also a black and thin middle-aged man leading a horse. He is dressed in a simple gray cloth. Tick ​​tock falls...

Mu Ai greeted Aunt Liu, and just said a few polite words, the old lady also came out of the house, she was puzzled when she saw the person outside the door, but she still invited him in.

Mu Ai went into the kitchen, ready to get a pot of tea, but after thinking about it, he put it down. The black and thin man obviously traveled a long way, and the weather is hot, so he should take out the mung bean water that was cooled in the well in the morning, and he must go The heat quenches thirst again.

She dragged the rope to pull out the wooden barrel hanging in the well, and took out the small jars in the wooden barrel, and quickly poured a bowl for grandma, third aunt, and the guest. She secretly added sugar to the mung bean water, So the taste is slightly sweet and cool, Aunt Liu praised a few words very much, the guest was also very thirsty, drank three bowls in one breath, and then slowly exhaled, his face relaxed, and stretched out his hand Untied the cloth bag, took out a letter, and put it in front of the old lady, "Auntie, I came to Kao City from the Stone Fort Military Camp to deliver official documents. Before leaving, a brother named Li Sheng asked me to give your old lady Here comes a letter. Please keep it."
