Chapter 207: People will say we are stingy again

"Zhankui! If the drought continues like this, are you afraid the stream will stop flowing?" Huang Caiwei looked at the hot sun with a flash of worry in her heart.

In my previous life, I ran a clinic in a county town. Although I knew there would be a drought this year, I didn't expect it to be so dry.

A flash of regret flashed through Huang Caiwei's heart. She regretted that she was eager for quick success and took another 2 ducklings. What if the stream stopped flowing?

She thought about Guangdong and Guangxi, where there was plenty of rain, and she secretly made a decision in her heart. If it didn't work out, she would rush to Guangdong in advance. However, in this way, several children would suffer along the bumpy journey.

Seeing that she was lost in thought, he pushed her gently, "Xiaowei! What are you thinking about?"

"I think again if it doesn't rain today, what if the stream stops flowing, what will our ducks do?" she blurted out.

"When the car reaches the mountain, there will be a road! Things haven't reached that point yet, don't worry, if there is a heavy rain, won't everything be solved?"

"I hope I can pray for a heavy rain!" She responded casually, but she didn't think so in her heart.

She tried hard to recall that in her past life, there had not been a heavy rain this year, but she didn't know if it would change in this life.

In this way, under the pressure of the villagers, Liang Yuqing had to prepare sacrifices for praying for rain.

In the early morning of the third day, I brought several villagers to the Dragon King Temple. After the sacrifice, they beat gongs and drums and carried the Dragon King's palace around the fields. It was commonly known as the Dragon King of the North Sea. When the Dragon King's palace was burst by the sun, the Dragon King It will naturally rain.

For several days, the wooden carvings in the Dragon King's palace were crackling in the sun, and the sky was covered with dark clouds and thunder was booming.

"The Dragon King is preparing for rain! Everyone, please kneel down quickly!"

Liang Yuqing led the villagers to kneel on the edge of the field.

Another village cadre also carried the Dragon King's palace, and they all knelt down toward the place covered with dark clouds.

"Boom!" thunder rang out one after another, and a gust of wind picked up the sand and dust on the ground, making everyone unable to open their eyes.

"Crack!" A burst of big raindrops hit everyone amidst the thunder.

"It's raining! The Dragon King has appeared!" Everyone cheered loudly.

However, as soon as the cheers fell, the raindrops suddenly stopped, the thunder and clouds dispersed, and the sun that had been hidden just now reappeared above everyone's heads.

"This……

Everyone looked at each other, at a loss.

"It must have been our lack of sincerity, which is why the heavy rain did not fall."

An old man shouted.

Liang Yuqing wanted to open his mouth to retort, but he opened his mouth and faced the disappointed eyes of everyone. He could only sigh feebly, beat the gongs and drums again, and continued to walk around the fields with the Dragon King's palace.

Huang Caiwei stood on the balcony on the third floor, looking at the crowds of people wandering around the fields in the heat to pray for rain. She shook her head feebly and put her hope in God. It would be better for everyone to raise money to dig a deep well.

However, the cost of deep-water wells is high. Without government subsidies, relying on villagers to raise funds alone will definitely be a drop in the bucket and will not help.

She told Liang Zhankui what she thought.

Liang Zhankui shook his head, "Our county has many mountains and few fields. Last year, the fields were distributed to each household, and the family just had enough food and clothing. How about the extra money?"

"So it is definitely impossible for the villagers to raise their own funds. They can only rely on the government to take the lead." Huang Caiwei sighed.

"But Uncle Yuqing will not go to the government departments to trouble us for everyone's sake." He shook his head to interrupt her thoughts.

"Okay! Anyway, I'm not in a hurry. The worst thing I can do is get rid of the hens and take the ducks to Guangdong to raise them. There is plenty of rain there and there are rivers. I can raise them anywhere. It's just a bit harder to leave my hometown."

"You're right! When I inspected the terrain in the military area, I saw many small hills. As long as the opening is blocked, it will be a small reservoir. Those hills are gentle and are most suitable for breeding."

"Really?"

There was a flash of surprise in her eyes. In her previous life, she had only learned about it from TV or people's mouths.I have never really understood the topography of Guangdong.

"Zhankui! Otherwise! If this weather continues like this, we are planning to go to Guangdong for development?"

"If the drought continues, you won't be able to go even if you don't want to." Liang Zhankui smiled bitterly.

"The weather in the south is warm and there is no frost and snow all year round, which is very suitable for the breeding industry. I have long planned to go there in two years to develop. Now I may have to move forward. It's just a pity that I don't have a new house to live in."

She looked at the brand-new house, with a flash of reluctance in her eyes.

"It depends on the situation! The day after tomorrow is the Dragon Boat Festival, we have to prepare for dinner." Liang Zhankui said casually

"It's simple, we don't accept red envelopes, just invite a few good friends to join two or three tables."

"I'm afraid two or three tables are not enough. You don't want to accept it, but you can't bear it and they want to give it away. There are always customers coming to your door, so it's hard to refuse."

"How many tables should we prepare, five or six?" A look of helplessness flashed across Huang Caiwei's face.

"I'm afraid we have to have eight or nine tables. Last time we didn't do it for a few short full moons, a lot of people were already gossiping and saying that we were stingy. If we don't do it this time, people might be talking behind our backs."

"Okay! Then prepare ten tables. Anyone can come. After eating, return all the gifts. That's okay!" Huang Caiwei also had a headache with these favors.

"Some of them can be refunded, and some cannot be refunded. Just refund them! He said that you are rich now, so he disliked his gift for being light."

"Okay! I don't care about this. You can handle it yourself. You decide what to do."

"Okay! I'll find someone to help, so you don't have to worry about it."

"Yes! We don't plan to accept red envelopes. The food shouldn't be too good or too bad. Generally speaking, it's fine."

She warned, "Great, people will say we show off our wealth. Too bad, people will say we are stingy."

"Okay! Ten dishes, half meat and half vegetarian, that's about it."

"Okay! Find out who will be in charge of the dishes, and discuss it with them. Make a menu and ride a tricycle to buy it tomorrow."

"Okay! I'll find someone."

Liang Zhankui turned around and went to find some uncles who specialized in making banquets in the village. After expressing his thoughts, they sat together and discussed for a while. They thought that to buy pork, it is better to buy a pig in the village and kill it yourself, which is fresh and fresh. Affordable, sweet and sour pork ribs, braised pork, and fried sweet and sour pork.

I raise my own chickens, and a little hen is just right for one table. I went to the market to buy ten carps and basically finished five meat dishes, plus kelp, white bamboo shoots, green vegetables, mushroom stewed tofu, and vegetarian fried tofu balls. Ten dishes are done.

Tomorrow I'll make fifteen pounds of beans and fry them, and I'm basically done.

After several people finalized the dishes, Liang Zhankui approached his uncle and asked his father and son to help move the tables, stools, bowls and chopsticks.Finally, I decided to ask my aunt to help me make tofu.

Zhang Qiaonan and Zheng Wenhui nodded in agreement and started cleaning the stone mill.

Liang Zhankui went home, carried more than a dozen kilograms of beans, and a load of firewood and put them in the kitchen. After saying a few polite words, he patted his butt and went home to comfort his baby.

Liang Youqing's family started working early the next morning.
