After the locust disaster, my fairy reincarnation identity was exposed
Chapter 73 A lot of people talking about marriage
The entire village's rice harvest was finally completed in early July, and the whole village was filled with joy.
Two villagers also killed pigs and sold some pork to the villagers to entertain their relatives and friends.
Mrs. Cui bought five kilograms of pork, and her family members were very happy after eating it.
Xiang Ci still picked it up and only ate the lean ones and not the fat ones. He really couldn't bear to eat the greasy and fatty meat.
There were also cold cucumbers, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, and fried pork with peppers on the table, which really whetted your appetite. The fragrant Xiang Ci ate three bowls of rice.
When she put down the bowl, Xiang Cisheng was helpless. Her appetite seemed to be getting bigger and bigger. Even if she didn't kill others in her dream, her appetite was also getting bigger.
……
Today is already the third day of July. Third brother and Ye Kai have not come back yet. It is a few days later than they said they would come back. I don’t know how they are doing now.
In an era when messages can be sent thousands of miles away, wanting to know where someone is is like reaching the sky. I really miss the convenience of mobile phones.
Xiang Ci was weeding with a hoe. Ever since she planted peppers and other species, the backyard vegetable garden became hers.
Plant species such as peppers and wait for the next harvest.
Mr. Xiang collected the seeds of these five new things, and then gave them to Mr. Xiang and others, saying that they were brought back by Kaixin from outside and had been planted at home, so he asked them to try them too.
The clan elder and others were very happy. Elder Xiang even came here just in time to eat watermelon.
Mr. Xiang took a piece of watermelon and handed it to Mr. Xiang: "Here, eat a piece, watermelon, one of the seeds I gave you."
Mr. Xiang took the watermelon, smelled the sweet smell, and smiled and said, "This tastes delicious just from the smell."
One bite made Mr. Xiang laugh out of his eyes. He ate the watermelon while talking about how delicious it was.
After eating a piece of watermelon, he put the rind on the table and took another piece unceremoniously. After finishing the meal, he waved his hand to reject the third piece: "No, two pieces, that's enough. This is very cool to eat. Put the well water in it." Has it been refrigerated?"
Mr. Xiang and Mr. Xiang came to the well to wipe their faces and wash their hands: "Just put it in the well to cool down for a while. It tastes cool and refreshing. Is it good enough?"
"Enough." Mr. Xiang wiped off the water on his face, bent down and shook the water droplets on his hands, "When I go back, I want to grow a good kind of melon. This kind of melon can only be eaten in the capital, right?"
Mr. Xiang chuckled: "Maybe, who knows, anyway, I'm fine as I am now."
It doesn’t matter if they eat or not, as long as I eat.
Mr. Xiang also nodded with a smile and said yes. After chatting, he said: "I came today to talk about something else. Our village has been harvesting rice these days, and many people have come here, all wanting to buy rice seeds, you know? "
Mr. Xiang took out his pipe and knocked it on the foot of the chair: "I know."
Xiang Lao asked him: "What do you mean?"
Mr. Xiang glanced lightly in the direction of Xiang Ci: "Uncle, let me tell you this, I am willing to give away the seeds, but not in copper coins, but in exchange for grain."
He couldn't keep the rice seeds with high yield and short maturity period in his hands. Everyone in the surrounding villages knew that the reason why it hadn't reached the county magistrate yet was because everyone wanted rice seeds.
If the news reaches the county magistrate, the rice seeds in their village will definitely not be saved, and will definitely be sent to the chief farmer in the capital for research and cultivation.
If other villages wanted rice seeds, they would have to wait, so everyone kept it secret from the county magistrate.
He is very clear about this and knows that he can't fight, so he doesn't fight.
Mr. Xiang asked in surprise: "You don't want copper coins, but you just want grain exchange?"
Mr. Xiang put the pipe without cut tobacco into his mouth and bit it, his eyes narrowed slightly: "Yes. Is anyone selling it secretly?"
"That's not true." Mr. Xiang shook his head repeatedly, "They did it for the sake of their relatives and friends, but they didn't know what you meant here, so they asked me to ask."
He repeated the previous question again: "Only in exchange for food, no money?"
"No money, just grain." Mr. Xiang said with a serious face, "One pound of grain seeds will be exchanged for ten pounds of rice."
Seeing that Mr. Xiang had a serious face, Mr. Xiang fell silent and said, "Then do you want to have a meeting?"
"Yes." Mr. Xiang said, "We have just finished harvesting the rice. I was originally thinking of having a meeting tomorrow, but I didn't expect you to come tonight."
Mr. Xiang made a sound and stopped talking about this topic, but said with a smile: "You don't know, because of the bumper rice harvest in our village, matchmakers from more than a dozen surrounding villages came to our village to offer money to our village. The young girls are talking about getting married."
This is a big happy event, and Mr. Xiang is also very happy: "Although they are all here for the rice seeds, this is also a big happy event. If the two families agree, I, Li Zheng, will not say anything."
Mr. Xiang said with a smile: "It's going to rain today, my mother is getting married, and we can't take care of other people's children getting married."
He pointed at the girls in the courtyard, smiling so hard that he couldn't see his eyes: "You have three girls. I think the matchmaker is going to break down the threshold of your house."
Mr. Xiang just heard about the marriage talk in the village and thought of this. He frowned tightly and looked ugly: "My three girls are not in a hurry, just wait a moment."
Knowing that a severe drought and cold are coming, if you push your own girls out, isn't that just sending the girls to die?
When you go to someone else's house, you won't feel as comfortable as your mother's family. If there is food in other people's homes, your mother-in-law will lock it up and won't let you eat more.
If a severe drought or cold comes and there is no food to eat, the first to be abandoned will be these new wives. He doesn't want his girls to be ruined by others, so he might as well stay at home until the severe drought and cold pass.
Looking at Mr. Xiang's serious face, Mr. Xiang fell silent again. After returning home, he immediately called all his family members to the main room, with a solemn face and a frosty tone.
"You all listen to me. I don't care who comes to our house for matchmaking during this period. I will refuse them."
"If anyone dares to agree in private and doesn't take me seriously, Xiang Deshou, then I will rely on my old age and sell my old age. The man will be kicked out of the house and the woman will be divorced."
"Did you hear me?"
Everyone's scalp was numb with fear, their hearts were trembling with fear, and they exclaimed: "Why?"
"Yes, grandpa, my eldest son is already fifteen, and we are quite satisfied with the girl the matchmaker mentioned."
"Grandpa, your great-granddaughter is also fourteen. How can we not talk about her husband's family? Now that the food harvest in our village is good, we can choose the best offspring around here. Why don't you agree?"
Listening to everyone's chattering rebuttals, Mr. Xiang grabbed the teapot on the table and threw it to the ground. The clear sound scared everyone into silence and panic.
Mr. Xiang glanced at the male son of the Xiang family coldly: "Take care of your mother-in-law. If anyone dares to get married privately, I will divorce him and ask Li Zheng to expel you from Xiangjia Village!"
"Humph!"
The last heavy hum made everyone understand that Mr. Xiang was really angry. If he really dared to agree to the marriage privately, he would not be part of the Xiang family.
Nowadays, Xiangjia Village is regarded by everyone as a fragrant steamed bun. If the front foot is divorced, a matchmaker will come to propose marriage.
Everyone nodded in agreement and no longer dared to have any small thoughts.
