Chapter 54

The next day, Meng Zhen and the others continued planting in the vegetable garden. This time, the seeds were provided by Village Chief Meng, who were said to be the best high-yield vegetable seeds.

Meng Zhen has been growing vegetables for several months, and she doesn't know anything about these seeds. She has tried to grow a few crops of high-quality vegetables in the manor, and the size and taste are indeed much better.Therefore, she is still looking forward to these vegetables.

Li Sihai's branch opened successfully during the Dragon Boat Festival, and now the supply of vegetables has more than doubled than before. Judging from this situation, there is still an increasing trend, so the supply of vegetables grown in the beach is somewhat insufficient.Although there are still a lot of ripe vegetables in her manor, they can't be taken out in a fair manner.

Now, we can only hope that these vegetables can grow faster.Meng Zhen slowly scattered the black soil dug out from the village.

Her hands have thin calluses from doing farm work, but fortunately her skin is not very tanned. If her skin were any darker, she would look like a real peasant woman.

Didn’t some people say that “Nongfu Mountain Spring has a bit of land”? She agrees with all these points, but a peasant woman can’t do well just by talking. After being a farmer for several months, Meng Zhen found that farming in the field is really hard. Even if she still has a cheater.Just like now, it is not easy to wear short-sleeved shorts on such a hot day. There are a lot of mosquitoes in the mountain village, and there are thorny larvae in the fields. It will bleed, but it will also be streaked with blood. If it is stained with sweat, it will be very painful.

In order to avoid the bites of mosquitoes and the intrusion of weeds such as lala yang, Meng Zhen puts on the camouflage uniform he bought at the market every time he goes to the field, and it is so hot that he wraps it tightly.

"Phew, there's still a ridge of land! When I didn't plant the land before, I always felt that an acre of land was not big, but when I stood on the ground, I realized that it was really not small!"

"That's right, sister, if you do the work, you will know that an acre of land is very large!"

Zheng Jian also wore the same camouflage uniform as Meng Zhen and planted vegetables on the other side. When he heard his sister's complaints, he also replied: "I used to hear how hard it is to farm the land, but I have never experienced it myself, and I will never know how hard it is. Hard!"

"Well, it's okay. I'll finish it soon. After the few days of busy work, I won't be so tired after weeding and watering regularly. By the way, when will Meng Xianglei come?"

Meng Zhen came to the vegetable field early in the morning, only his younger brother was busy working alone, but Meng Xianglei was nowhere to be seen.

"Oh, I heard that his father seemed to have high blood pressure yesterday, and he was serving the old man at home. He said he would come over in the afternoon and let us work hard first!"

"Meng Village Chief is sick? Why haven't you heard of it?!" Meng Zhen stood up straight with a shovel in one hand, and beat his waist with the other hand.

"Well, it seems that people from the Wang family came to him yesterday. He has high blood pressure, and he fell ill when he got angry!"

"No, how about I prepare something to send to him?"

Although Village Chief Meng designed her once, he usually treats her well.

"No, Meng Xianglei said it's not serious, but he's panicking. When the turbid breath comes out, he'll be fine!"

"Oh~"

Meng Zhen rested for a while, feeling much better, and then bent down to continue working.While it is still cool, finish the rest of the work quickly, or she will suffer from heatstroke again.

After dinner yesterday, she felt dizzy and her face looked like a ripe tomato.After Zheng Jian went back to the lotus pond to sleep, she went into the manor and drank a "ginseng fruit" in it, and then she recovered.

"Jenner, Janer—"

Wang Yongnian's family stood on the ridge of the field, calling for Meng Zhen loudly.

"Sister, someone called you!"

Zheng Jian was closer to the field ridge, as if he heard someone calling his sister.When he first came here, he thought it was funny to hear someone call his sister "Zhen Nier". After a long time, he got used to it.

"Oh, who!"

Meng Zhen stood up straight, squinting at the entrance of Xian vegetable garden: "Hey, why is it her? Didn't all the confinement people follow, why do you still want me to drink 'full moon wine'?"

She put down the shovel, and walked to the ground in doubt, "Aunt Zhuzi, what do you want from me?"

"Hey, look at you, you are still doing it in such a hot day. That Meng Xianglei is too outrageous, and the two of you sisters and brothers are doing it by themselves for the business that is clearly a cooperation!"

Seeing Meng Zhen from Wang Yongnian's family picked up the towel that was put aside to wipe off his sweat, and said as if he was complaining about Meng Zhen.

"Hehe, it's not that Village Chief Meng is not feeling well. Xianglei is taking care of his father at home!"

Meng Zhen is not so stupid that she can't hear her instigation. She and Meng Xianglei's family can be understood by herself, and she doesn't need to explain anything to outsiders.

"It deserves it!" Wang Yongnian's family cursed in a low voice.

"Aunt Zhuzi, it's a hot day, what do you need from me?"

"Hey, look at my memory. I'm so busy trying to fight for you that I forget about business. You know the Village Chief Wang on East Street, right?"

"I know!" My brother just told her yesterday.

"His son came back from Guangdong yesterday. I heard that the company there has been moved back to Quancheng, and he will return to our village to help the villagers get rich. No, at noon today, we are setting up water mats in the courtyard. When we come, it is Wangcun The head of the village will welcome the children, and on the other hand, it will also allow villagers who are not familiar with the village to meet and get to know each other."

"I reckon you just came to our village this year, and you definitely don't know the son of Village Chief Wang. This kid is bold and capable. I heard that he is taking millions now. He came back yesterday. The car he drove cost more than 100 million yuan. With him taking the lead to give everyone advice, our life will definitely get better and better, right?!"

"Oh, yes, hehe, I have a lot of work in the field, and I don't know if I can finish it at noon. Well, let me see, if I have time, I will definitely go."

"Okay, don't forget, it's in the courtyard! It doesn't matter if you don't have time, you can go later, this water table will be open until the afternoon, come and eat as you want!"

"Hey, good!"

Meng Zhen agreed, but she had already made up her mind that such a thing would not be miserable for her.No wonder Village Chief Meng was so angry. The Wang family didn't take him seriously for such a blatant feast.

"Sister, what's the matter?" Zheng Jian was a little thirsty after working all morning, so he came to the field and took a few gulps of the mung bean soup he had prepared.

"Oh, I think you have the potential of a crow's mouth. I just talked about the grievances between the two families yesterday, and the war will start today!"

"What crow's mouth? What's a war?" Zheng Jian was at a loss.

"Let's go, go home and talk!" Meng Zhen saw that the work in the field was almost done, and thinking that the work would be finished in a few hours with Meng Xianglei in the afternoon, he called his brother home.

Speaking of which, the siblings packed up their things and went home. On the road, they kept seeing cheerful villagers rushing towards the yard.Who wouldn't want to eat a free meal, and I heard that the chef was specially invited from a big restaurant in the city.Some people have made up their minds that lunch and dinner will be settled in the yard.

"Isn't it? This is starting to build momentum, and there is still nearly a year before the general election. Wang Zhijiang is too impatient. They really didn't take Village Chief Meng seriously. No wonder Village Chief Meng was angry. Sick!"

"Hehe, this is also a declaration of war, declaring that the new head of the Wang family has returned, so that everyone in the village can get to know each other. Well, it's none of our business anyway, and no one will take care of us if he is the village chief!"

"Well, yes, how can you say that your surname is also Meng, and you are also cooperating with the Meng family. They must have sent you to attack the Meng family. I just saw that most of the people who went were surnamed Wang. Yes, or the surname is Meng but not from the Meng family. Sister, although you are not from his family, but you are a partner, if you all go, the village head Meng will not be more angry?!"

"That's right, there is no good banquet, let's stay away from this right and wrong circle!"

When Meng Zhen returned home, she took a shower, changed her clothes, and went to the kitchen to cook. The workload has been quite heavy recently, so she decided to make some delicious food to supplement her nutrition.

Open the refrigerator, when Jia Jia came back yesterday, her mother brought a lot of things, including fresh chicken breast, pork ribs, as well as enoki mushrooms, vermicelli and a lot of vegetables.Meng Zhen took out the chicken and Flammulina velutipes, and made a spicy chicken diced, braised eggplant, mixed with three shreds, scrambled eggs with peppers, and a sliced ​​winter melon soup.

After finishing the steamed buns sent by Second Aunt Meng, Meng Zhen steamed some rice. While cooking, he thought that he would steam steamed buns by himself when the work in the field was over.Ever since she ate the steamed buns given by her second aunt, she couldn't eat anything sold in the market.

After the meal was ready, Liu Jiajia also came back from get out of class and watched Meng Zhen stir-fry a lot of delicious food, so she actively washed her hands and helped serve the food.

The three of them were sitting at the stone table in the yard and were about to have dinner when Meng Xianglei walked in with a haggard face.

"Brother Xiaolei is here, have you eaten? If you haven't eaten, let's eat together!"

Zheng Jian stood up and asked him to sit down, seeing that he looked a little tired: "Is Village Chief Meng okay?"

"It's okay," Meng Xianglei sat on the empty stone bench, watching how they had just started eating: "Why, you didn't go to the water table?!"

In the past two days, Meng Xianglei finally realized what it means to "leave the tea cold".But the one surnamed Wang is too arrogant. His father hasn't left yet, so how dare he be so arrogant.

The yard in the village is where the wheat is dried, and it is okay to hold a meeting or something, but now it is the wheat harvest season, and the wheat at Mr. Meng Liu’s house has not been dried yet, so they are clamoring to hold some running water seats in the yard. Didn't you say hello (meaning on purpose)?

As a result, his father was so angry that his blood pressure rose on the spot, but there was nothing he could do about it. He and Wang Zhijiang's family were at odds with each other. Now that Wang Zhijiang is back, he is willing to spend money and looks like he is going to win the next election. , making the Meng family very depressed.

When I came out of the house, I saw many people going to eat on the road, and many of them were named Meng. They dodged a little when they saw Meng Xianglei, but they still went to the yard.

The more he watched, the more upset he became, and suddenly he wondered if his partner Meng Zhen had gone.Thinking of this, he turned a corner to Meng Zhen's house after going to order food from a small restaurant.

"What kind of water mat? When school is over today, many parents are also discussing it!" Liu Jiajia asked, biting her chopsticks.

"Wang Zhijiang from East Street is back. His house set up a running water mat to welcome him. Everyone in the village can go and eat whatever is on the mat!"

Meng Xianglei simply explained that he still has a good impression of Liu Jiajia.

"Oh, Aunt Zhuzi called me, but we still have so much work in the field, so we won't join in the fun. Besides, we don't know Wang Zhijiang well, so it's embarrassing to go."

Meng Xianglei looked at Meng Zhen with complicated eyes, his father really saw the right person, and Meng Zhen was worth befriending.

I'm sorry, today's college reunion, it is estimated that we will play until very late, so we will have one update first, and tomorrow there will be two updates.Please continue to support! ! !
