Travel through time and become the wronged stepmother

Chapter 195: Three-legged toads are hard to find, but there are many people with two legs.

Jiang Luorou packed up early and called for Iron Block to drive the carriage.

Come to Peach Blossom Village and wait for Mr. Wang's people to deliver honeysuckle flowers and trees.

Around noon, when it was time to have lunch, a crisp sound of bells rang in the east of Zhuangzi.

Jiang Luorou looked for the reputation and saw four or five ox carts coming loaded with flowers and trees.

"We're finally here." Jiang Luorou walked forward to lead the way, transporting the seedlings to the more than 200 acres of open land.

She carefully inspected the honeysuckle seedlings on the oxcart, frowning from time to time, pretending to be dissatisfied with the goods.

As expected, the leader who delivered the flower seedlings couldn't hold his breath. He came to Jiang Luorou, patted his chest and vowed to guarantee the outcome.

"Ms. Jiang, don't worry, you are the person who was personally introduced by Mr. Bai."

"Wherever we dare to cheat, we will always choose the best and serve it..."

Jiang Luorou ignored him and continued to look at the honeysuckle seedlings on the bullock cart one by one.

After a general inspection and no problems were found, they were asked to unload the honeysuckle seedlings in the field.

Then he led them to the main house to have a chat and settle the money spent on the seedlings.

They were left to have lunch here before letting them go.

The flowers and trees are the most delicate, coupled with the slightly hot weather in late spring.

It's okay to sit in the field all afternoon, but they must be planted as soon as possible.

Jiang Luorou did not dare to delay any more and ordered Tie Nian to find Lao Wangtou and gather the tenants in charge of that field in the village to gather in the field.

Not long after, Iron Bar came to report that the tenants in the village had gathered.

Jiang Luorou then came to the field with Tie Nian, and she told them about planting honeysuckle.

Unexpectedly, this ordinary thing was unanimously opposed by all the villagers present.

They were all frowning and talking among themselves in the field.

"This flower can't fill your stomach, so why grow it?" A woman with a hoe in hand asked.

"My boss doesn't have to worry about food and clothing. He grows this for his eyesight. It's a pity that we can only drink from the northwest wind!"

A middle-aged man with a simple face shook his head helplessly.

A lean young man gently pushed Lao Wangtou, who was standing next to him.

"Hey! Uncle Wang, which family here doesn't have more than a dozen people, big and small?"

"But we all live on renting a few acres of land. Now that my boss wants to grow flowers, we will have to starve to death."

An old man with a gray beard approached the old Wangtou and said in his old voice.

"That's right, we can't let my boss grow this door bolt. It affects the family's livelihood and we can't let her do anything wrong."

"You are the only one in this village who can say a few words to the owner. Go and persuade her to give up this idea."

Lao Wangtou also felt that Jiang Luorou was just fooling around. What use could these broken flowers be used for?

He stood there and thought about his words before coming to Jiang Luorou's side.

He told the villagers' concerns in detail and persuaded Jiang Luorou to give up the idea of ​​planting honeysuckle.

Jiang Luorou waited patiently for Lao Wangtou to finish speaking.

"It's just that I didn't think about it well and didn't think about the importance of food to them."

Jiang Luorou stood up from the chair, walked slowly to the villagers, and suppressed the noisy discussions.

Tell her about the purpose of planting honeysuckle and how she hires people to pick the flowers when they bloom.

A very strong young man said in a loud voice.

"Don't listen to her nonsense. What if she doesn't fulfill her promise in the future? Or if she keeps the wages extremely low, we will still be hungry."

"Have you forgotten that when Zhou Yuanwai asked us to plant Panax notoginseng, we didn't make a penny at that time?"

He did not forget to give Jiang Luorou a fierce look and spat on the ground.

"They rich people have already had bad consciences. How can they care about the lives of farmers like us?"

The villagers who were initially a little relaxed suddenly felt that what he said was very reasonable, so they instantly firmed up their position, and the scene became chaotic again.

No matter how Jiang Luorou tried to comfort him, it was of no avail. She had no choice but to take the hoe from one of them.

He broke the hoe handle in half on the spot and said, "Everyone, be quiet and listen to me."

Sure enough, hard fists are the last word, and this operation shocked everyone present.

They all stared blankly at Jiang Luorou, no one dared to speak, and for a moment the sound of a pindrop could be heard on the scene.

"I know all your concerns. I will convert this year's harvest into grain and distribute it to you."

As soon as she finished speaking, the young man who had just started the trouble spoke again.

"Give it to us this year? What about next year? Aren't we going to be hungry again?"

Sure enough, several people at the scene were persuaded again and started making noises.

"TMD, I paid for this land. I can plant whatever I want. It's your turn to be stupid."

Even if Jiang Luorou has a good temper, there is a limit.

She didn't realize until now that wild boars couldn't eat fine chaff.

These villagers are like hungry wolves who cannot get enough to eat. If you give them a piece of meat, they will still want a second piece and will never be satisfied.

Once you can't give him any meat that day, he will eat you to the bone.

"Quiet, please be quiet." Jiang Luorou glanced at the villagers present with a gloomy expression.

"I bought this land. It's not your turn to comment on what I want to plant."

"It's hard to find three-legged toads in this world. Why don't you think the streets are full of two-legged people?"

"You don't want me to hire someone else to do it, but you have to think about one thing clearly."

“I am the most vindictive person, and I don’t want to plant flowers and trees now.

"Don't ever think of working in my workshop in the future. I, Jiang Luorou, will never break my promise."

When the villagers present heard that Jiang Luorou was going to build a workshop here, they all picked up their hoes and went to work in the fields without saying a word.

Just kidding, they had heard Lao Wangtou say more than once how good the food in his employer's workshop was.

Every meal is filled with white flour steamed buns and rice, as well as fragrant meat and vegetables.

Who wouldn’t want to live such a magical life? Each one of them was afraid of slowing down their pace and making their boss dissatisfied.

Only the yelling young man was still standing there, refusing to move.

When Jiang Luorou was about to scold him and leave, an old woman on crutches walked up to the man.

He raised his crutch and hit the man, "I'm going to beat you for being a ungrateful creature. If you didn't have a boss to kill the big bear here, how could you have the good life you are living now?"

"You don't know how to repay your kindness, but you are still here to play devil's advocate, aren't you? Why don't you go to work with this guy's business?"

"I know, Mom, I'll go right away." The man rubbed his sore shoulder and walked slowly towards the field.

The old woman didn't feel relieved just because of this, and she didn't forget to kick the man on the buttocks.

"Hurry up, do you want to piss your mother off to death?"

Because the old woman exerted too much force, she suddenly fell backward before she could stand firmly.
