Chapter 156
The jade pendant mall contains fertilizers, auxins, pesticides, etc. needed for each stage of production of tomatoes and peppers. However, Lin Wan did not take it out and used it this time. Apart from watering, she applied some farm fertilizer occasionally. However, in order to ensure survival rate, the grape seedlings in the field secretly used plant growth regulators twice while playing in the field.
Mr. Ye found that all the vines and dozens of other fruit trees transplanted from Hongfeng Village were survived. The survival rate of grape cuttings this year was much higher than in previous years. The grape seedlings raised by Lin Wan started to pump at an unexpected speed, which was naturally both surprised and happy.
Although there are more than Jin Wang and his son, Chen and Wu will occasionally take Jin Wang's family to the ground to weed. Every time they come back from the ground, they will say that Houwu Village is the blessing land of the Ye family and Lin Wan is the blessing treasure of the Ye family.
Whenever Lin Wan hears this, she always smirks.
On the 9th day of the third month, the Qingming Festival, the primary school has three consecutive days of holidays.
The Ye family’s ancestral home is in Shu, so naturally they can’t go back to visit the tombs and worship.
However, on this day, the Ye family prepared many sacrifices to worship their ancestors and their relatives who were buried in the earth.
While moaning in his mouth, Dad Ye threw the yellow paper-stacked ingots into the brazier and took the whole family to bow to Shu to express his filial piety, care and condolences to his ancestors.
Ji Kang returned to the county town on the eighth day of the first lunar month. In addition to visiting the graves of his parents and wives, he probably had some private matters to do, saying that he would only come back on the tenth day of the first lunar month, so he specially left homework for Ye Qing and Ye Zhan to prevent the two brothers from relaxing because of the holiday.
On such a day, Xie Huang naturally had to go back to Hongfeng Village to worship his ancestors. According to Ye’s father’s wish, Xie Huang took the donkey cart from the Ye family and took his wife and children back.
Xie Huang refused, not because he didn't know Mr. Ye's kindness, but because he was worried that he would never come back after driving the donkey cart.
Anyway, the Qi family’s cemetery is in Hongfeng Village, so the Qi family must go back to visit the grave and worship.
Xiaocao is still in the Ye family, and Qi Anhe will definitely turn to Houwu Village to pick up Xiaocao.
Xie Huang plans to take Qi Anhe’s ride!
Sure enough, early in the morning of the ninth day of the lunar month, Qi Anhe and Yang drove a donkey cart from the village to Houwu Village to pick up Xiaocao, so Xie Huang took his wife and children to take the donkey cart back to Hongfeng Village with the donkey cart he drove.
This time, the two families returned to Houwu Village until almost noon on the 10th day of the lunar month.
Yang must have another gossip with Chen’s family about what happened to the Xie family.
"I really don't know where the old village chief has committed a sin in his life. He married Xie Hui such a shallow-eyed woman! But he just passed the county exam and hadn't even taken the prefecture exam yet. It was like he had won the top scorer and was full of excellence everywhere. It was fine, but he was still arrogant in front of Xie Er. She didn't think that Xie Er had already passed the county exam and the prefecture exam. As long as he passed the college exam, he would be a scholar." Yang said at the end.
In the past, Yang couldn't understand what the county examination was, the government examination and the hospital examination. This time she returned to Hongfeng Village and finally let her figure it out. It's so slippery now.
Chen just smiled and shook his head without saying much. Yang remembered the fact that Qi Gui's family had asked her when they came out of the village yesterday, so he lowered his voice and said to Chen: "The Qi family intends to marry the Jin family, and ask me to help find out what you mean."
Chen was deeply surprised: "Why did the Qi family get married to the Jin family? "
"Oh, my sister! Although both of them are slaves from the Ye family, the slave's marriage will naturally have to nod their heads." Yang looked at Chen and shook his head. He had never seen anyone who did not regard himself as his head.
But thinking about it, the Ye family only started to be a family last year. How could they understand these rules? If she had not popularized it by Qi Gui's family, she would have had the same idea as Chen's current one.
Chen didn't understand at all, but he didn't think of Qi and Jin's family as their own slaves.
Chen naturally knew about the fact that Qi and Jin families were interested in becoming relatives. She had also asked the Jin Wang family specifically what they meant. The Jin Wang family said that they could consider whether they could get married. Chen really didn't intend to interfere.
Now that Qi Gui's family invited Yang to talk about the situation, Chen simply called Jin Wang's family to ask Yang to come forward to ask.
Yang was indeed a wise man. He soon got the answers that Qi Gui family wanted most, and of course he also truthfully answered some of the situations of the Jin Wang family's eldest daughter Chunmei.
"That girl Chunmei looks like his father this year and works flawlessly. After hearing from Qi Gui's family, she once fell in love with a young man last year, but before she could ask the master, the young man followed the master to the south, and the matter was left to nothing." Yang said last.
This means that Chunmei has never been married, and even her intentions are only one-sided by Qi Gui's family. Perhaps even Chunmei herself doesn't know it.
Kim Daman was once engaged to a marriage and even met each other. Although the engagement is no longer a matter of consideration, it is still the most worrying thing for Qi Gui's family.
Regarding the marriage that Jin Daman had signed, the Jin Wang family explained this: "In fact, it cannot be considered a marriage contract. It can only be said that it was approved by the master. The two families were discussing that the gifts had not even been exchanged, and the master was sent to prison. The maids and slaves were killed and sold, and few had a good ending.
My family is lucky. Although I have been in trouble for several months, I have to meet good people. Now I live like a person, but I can also live together.
The slaves who commit crimes in the master's family are more sold to the mines as coolies, women are so young and beautiful that they are sold to brothels as prostitutes, and more are sold to dirty places as secret prostitutes, and they don't know how they die in the end!
I didn't dare to hide it from my wife. After my maid's family settled down, the child's father went to the capital to inquire about the whereabouts of the child. I just got news yesterday that the child could not bear the humiliation and hanged himself."
After saying that, Jin Wang's family lifted up the corner of their clothes and wiped their eyes.
Although he didn't deliberately listen to gossip, Lin Wan, who was learning to do needlework and thread in the house with Dongxue, also listened to all the words of several people.
Seeing Dongxue sitting on the edge of the kang in a daze, Lin Wan couldn't help but ask curiously: "Have you seen that girl who almost became your sister-in-law?"
Dongxue nodded: "I've seen it once."
"Your brother has seen it too? Are they very good?" Lin Wan continued to ask.
This time Dongxue nodded and shook her head again: "My elder brother has only seen Sister Taohong from afar once. My elder brother actually doesn't like it, but my mother thinks Sister Taohong is strong and easy to raise."
After hearing this, Lin Wan couldn't help but open her eyes widened. The Jin Wang family probably wouldn't say this to her ten-year-old daughter.
Although Lin Wan didn't say anything, Dongxue's face turned red and she begged in a low voice: "I overheard this when my mother talked to my father. Girl, don't say it out."
Lin Wan nodded with a smile. She was not a talkative person. How could she say such words out loud? She just told Wu in an unintentional way.
