The farm has a phoenix

Chapter 14 Marriage or land?

Chen Shaoyan evoked a faint smile, his brows and eyes stretched, as if a quiet and beautiful picture bloomed in the shade of trees.

"That peach is worth more gold than you."

"Brother Chen, don't be joking, I saw a little lady watering the ground over there, why don't we ask?" He pointed at the girl who was wiping sweat under the scorching sun not far away.

Chen Shaoyan raised his eyes to look up, under the scorching sun, he raised his head inadvertently, and he could see those bright almond eyes and that faint smile that never disappeared.

"She is the one who sells the peaches. If Brother Di still wants them, he can buy them from her."

Di Jinyan smiled heartily, left the horse on the field ridge, and walked to Zhan Jinfeng's side in a few steps along the small street in the field.

"Little lady." Di Jinyan grinned and bowed: "I heard that peaches are sold here. The students find them very delicious after eating them. I wonder if we can sell some more so that the students can take them home and give their parents a taste."

Zhan Jinfeng straightened up and wiped the sweat from his forehead, evoked a faint smile, his eyes were elegant, but the Moyu bracelet in his hand was slightly swaying in the sun, reflecting the glaring light, and Di Jinyan could not help but squint slightly eyes.

"You want peaches? Come with me."

Zhan Jinfeng poured the last scoop of water into the vegetable field, then carried the empty bucket and led the people back slowly.

But Di Jinyan stared at the green bracelet on her wrist quietly, as if thinking deeply.

"Little lady, this bracelet is so rare. The student has never seen this kind of bracelet before."

"This is my mother's bracelet, passed down from my ancestors."

Di Jinyan nodded: "I don't know what to call the little lady?"

"My last name is Zhan."

In the shade of a tree in the distance, Chen Shaoyan quietly watched the two go away talking and laughing. For some reason, he always felt that Di Jinyan's expression was a little strange. When he came back with a peach, he couldn't help asking: " Why did Brother Di take so long to come back?"

Di Jinyan looked at the densely packed houses on the far field ridges in a daze.

"I don't know why... I'm always worried."

Seeing this, Chen Shaoyan looked at the houses in the distance with a condensed expression, with a trace of coldness in his eyes.

"Farmers are all like this. They dislike the poor and love the rich. Let's go."

Di Jinyan smiled, but did not explain, and the two rode away.

As the weather dries up, the well water gradually dries up. Zhan Jinfeng can only use the water from washing his face to soak the bracelet to irrigate the ground every day, but the vegetables are still growing well, patches of green and lush.

Zhan Jinfeng was full of joy, and continued to water every day, and the weather became drier. Suddenly, the farms everywhere cracked and gradually withered.

This made some people unhappy.

In the shade of the trees in the street, several women and women sat together and chatted with the soles of their shoes, and someone chatted about Zhan Jinfeng's house.

"Look, the crops in several villages are dead, but theirs is still green. Where did they get the water to irrigate?"

Mrs. Chen raised her eyelids, rubbed her head with the tip of a needle, and said disdainfully: "Last time I asked them to sell my land, but I didn't agree. It must be a good land. They just don't want to sell it!"

"Good land? Didn't she buy the land from Uncle Wang's house? Didn't you see any difference?"

"Same? Then why are all the things in our house dried up, and theirs is still in good condition. I think they must have occupied a good place and don't want to share it with us!"

The women looked at each other with unhappy faces.

Seeing this, Mrs. Chen clenched the sole of the shoe in her hand, and a smug smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

In the evening, Zhan Jinfeng was still carrying a bucket to water the field, but saw a few men occupying her field, holding a shovel, as if they were destroying her family's farm.

Zhan Jinfeng was in a hurry, lifted the hem of her skirt and rushed over, angrily said: "What are you doing? This is my home!"

"Wow, it's your family's land!" Someone in the crowd shouted, and the movement of attack became faster and faster.

"Stop it, why are you digging up our land, all the good dealers have been destroyed!"

As he said that, Zhan Jinfeng wanted to rush in, but was blocked by a figure who staggered a few steps and was knocked out.

Chen looked at her with a grin, the drooping corners of her eyes were full of calculations.

"Feng'er, come, Auntie has something to tell you!" Then he stretched out his hand and took her to a place where no one was on the side of the road, regardless of the field that had been turned over by the planer.

"Feng'er, everyone's fields are dry, and the farmers are dead, but yours is green. Could it be that there is a well underground in your house?"

So that's what they dug their land for?
"How is it possible? You bought this land from Wang Erbo's house, and you know it better than us, right?"

Chen Shi giggled, looked at her coldly and said: "Auntie knows that you can't trust Auntie, and you have to sell some of the embroidery from the market, so Auntie didn't dare to tell you about it."

Zhan Jinfeng frowned slightly when she heard the words, but looked at Chen Shi indifferently. Chen Shi was a little uncomfortable being looked at by her. Although she was not a lady from a wealthy family, the occasional eyes of this little girl were very powerful .

"If someone digs the land, the things in the land must be lost. Either you sell this land, at least you won't lose anything, or you marry into our family in advance. This is all from the same village. Do you want to show me some face?"

After going around and going around, Zhan Jinfeng just smiled.

"Marriage depends on the words of the matchmaker at the order of the parents. For formal three-match and six-hire marriages, according to the etiquette, the man's matchmaker needs to give gifts, money and things. Auntie, are you ready?"

Chen frowned: "Can these words be what you, an unmarried girl, should say?"

"Then can my aunt encourage people to dig our land?"

"You!" Mrs. Chen became annoyed, staring at Zhan Jinfeng fiercely.

"It's no wonder your mother didn't listen to what she said. It turned out that she had other thoughts! Anyway, your mother has already agreed to this matter, so it's up to you to listen or not!"

After saying that, Mrs. Chen stopped talking, but turned around and yelled at the diggers: "Hurry up, everyone, how slow are you?"

The men in the lead responded, and then sped up even more. Zhan Jinfeng was extremely anxious, but there was nothing he could do, and these people obviously didn't listen to her.

When she was getting angry, someone behind her yelled: "Stop!" Then a figure rushed out to protect the world of their home.

With a gentle face, a handsome face, and a firm expression between his brows, Guan Shilang blocked everyone by himself and guarded the green field for her.

"Ah Lang?" The people with the guy were startled when they saw Guan Shilang, they all put down the things in their hands and looked back at Mrs. Chen.

Chen frowned, stared at Guan Shilang and said, "Ah Lang, come here!"
