The poor man grows watermelon

Chapter 6 The Only Man

【Come back with my daughter-in-law】

Su Ye persisted in half a day after finishing the work.

I have to say that it does feel a lot better to wrap my hands in cloth.

After work, Yu Feng didn't join everyone's dinner party, he just drank a couple of mouthfuls of soup, took the pot and went to Xitou Village to quit his job.

By the river, the men sat around the fire, chatting and chatting while eating.

"Boy Hou, isn't your village close to brother Yu's village? Is the story told earlier true?"

Hou An snorted and drank a big mouthful of vegetable soup, and asked inarticulately, "What happened?"

"What else? The imperial court's award of land!"

When the other men heard this, they gathered around with bowls and urged, "Tell me quickly, everyone is curious, the imperial court really rewarded Brother Yu with a large piece of land?"

Hou An rolled his eyes and raised his voice and said, "That's not true? There are twenty acres of open and bright land there, and twenty acres of land can't be seen at a glance!"

Su Ye sat alone in the leeward place, listening with her ears open.

Hou An started talking like a bean, Barabara——

"My father said that brother Yu originally fought with the general and made great contributions. He could have been a general in the first place. Who knew that not only did he not want to be a general, he also insisted on returning to the village to farm!"

Everyone let out an "ohhhh" exclamation.

Hou An spoke even more vigorously, "Brother Yu also bought a flatbed truck with the money awarded by the general, plus more than 30 straw mats, and pulled back the bones of all the men in the village - more than 1000 miles away. , it stinks when we get home!"

This is a bit exaggerated. If that was the case, Yu Feng would have contracted the disease a long time ago.However, he did send back the bones of his fellow villagers, and of course the help of that "general" was indispensable.

"When the county magistrate heard about this, he personally summoned brother Yu and wanted him to become an official. Unexpectedly, brother Yu insisted on resigning. Then the magistrate reported to the imperial court and gave away the twenty acres of official land at the head of the village. It was given to him."

Speaking of this, the men gasped and couldn't help asking: "It's great to be an official, why doesn't he go?"

"Brother Yu said—" Hou An sniffled, and imitated Yu Feng and said, "There are old and young in the village, and I'm just an adult man, so I have to stay and take care of it!"

Su Ye raised her eyebrows, it was indeed like Yu Feng said those words.

The men all sighed, "Brother Yu is benevolence and righteousness!"

Hou An took a bite of the cold millet noodles, and concluded: "The person I admire the most when I grow up is Big Brother Yu, and I will learn from him in the future!"

"How big are you? How old are you!"

"Nineteen, it's not too young!" Hou An said unconvinced.

"Nineteen years old, you dare to act as a senior here? Boy, my son is older than you!"

People made fun of him one after another.

Hearing everyone's teasing, Su Ye suddenly remembered that this body will also be eighteen years old this year.

A man begins to grow into a man in his twenties, and he has also reached the age of starting a family and starting a business.If it hadn't been for the troubled times, his marriage would have been discussed long ago.

Su Ye really wanted to know if Marquis Yong'an would really let his son marry a woman back home.

Even if the matter of escaping marriage can be resolved, Su Ye does not want to return to Yong'an Hou Mansion.

After all, he is not the real Su Yelan, whether it is family wealth or title, it actually has nothing to do with him.

What's more, he didn't bother to deal with the complicated relationship of the Su clan alone.

To live a new life, Su Ye's greatest wish is to live a steady life.

As Yu Feng said, the resignation process went smoothly. Jiang Fuhu did not make things difficult for him, and quickly found a replacement.

This piece of land has just experienced war, and the life of the farmers is not easy, and there are many people who are not afraid of hard work and willing to earn a little more money.

Yu Feng was very popular, and the men deliberately got up early to see him off.

The foreman also ordered breakfast for two.

In the bleak autumn wind, Su Ye hugged the bamboo tube and took a sip of the hot soup, warming her heart.

-

Su Ye originally thought that if all the men in the village went out to fight, only Yu Feng would come back with a whole beard and tail. He would probably be hated, right?

Unexpectedly, the fact is just the opposite.

As soon as the two of them entered the village, they saw a few young men squatting in the wasteland to catch crickets.

When the little guys saw Yu Feng, they left the crickets and ran towards the village, shouting at the top of their voices as they ran, "Boss Yu is back! Boss Yu is back!"

There was also a clever one, who deliberately glanced at Su Ye twice, and said in a more excited tone, "Boss Yu has returned with his handsome wife—"

Su Ye paused, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

But Yu Feng laughed out loud, "The children are yelling nonsense, don't take it to heart, little page."

Su Ye gave him a blank look, but said nothing.

It was obviously a look of disgust, but it made Yu Feng's heart itch.

The children are still shouting—

"Boss Yu is back!"

"Boss Yu is back with his handsome wife!"

When hearing the previous sentence, the aunts and aunts were only a little bit happy, probably the feeling of "just come back".

However, upon hearing the latter sentence, this joy instantly escalated into excitement—what?Has Yu Feng found a wife?Still very handsome!

All the women in the village ran out like a swarm, scrambling to the only path in the village, and their eyes were like searchlights, hitting Su Ye directly.

The women looked at him up and down, left and right, like a scanner, as if they wanted to strip him naked.

Su Ye froze.

Yu Feng blocked him behind him, with a smile on his face, "Mother, Auntie, don't be like this, Xiao Ye has a thin skin."

Such a move undoubtedly confirmed the rumors.

Aunt Su Hua said seriously: "Fengzi, where did you cheat such a beautiful pair? Send them back quickly!"

Yu Feng kept winking at Aunt Su Hua—he finally deceived people, oh, no, he finally brought them here, what if he was scared away again?

Aunt Su Hua didn't buy it, she put her waist on a fork, and said in a sharp voice: "Fengzi, don't be foolish, this little Shuang'er is not a child of a farmer's family at first glance, you can think about it!"

Yu Feng was helpless, and was about to explain, but Su Ye grabbed his wrist.

Su Ye leaned forward and said unhurriedly, "I'm just in trouble. I'm staying with brother Yu for a while. There's no other meaning. Please don't think too much about it."

Aunt Su Hua raised her eyebrows, and rolled her eyes at Yu Feng—hasn't she dared to deceive her yet?promising!

Yu Feng had a shy face, not even the slightest bit embarrassed.

-

In any case, everyone is happy that Yu Feng can come back.

The women had already rushed back and packed up their quarters.

Those who had surplus food at home also took it out without hesitation, for fear that the two young people would have nothing to eat.

There were also some young sister-in-laws who gathered around Su Ye without hesitation, enthusiastically introducing the situation in the village, with Yu Feng's goodwill in everything they said.

Su Ye was a little confused—this atmosphere...why is it different from what he thought?

Afterwards, he specifically asked Yu Feng about this matter, "Why do women in the village not only don't hate you, but also treat you so well?"

At that time, Yu Feng asked in amazement, "Why do they hate me?"

Su Ye recalled the classic plots of the major TV dramas, and said as a matter of course: "The men in their family are all dead, and you are the only one who came back. Wouldn't it be the target of public criticism?"

"What the hell?" Yu Feng scratched his head and said with a smile, "I brought my uncle and uncle back, and the aunts and aunts felt at ease, and even made stewed meat for me."

Yujia Village originally had a total of [-] households. Except for orphans like Yu Feng, each household had at least seven or eight members of three generations.

However, in this protracted war for the throne, a group of adult men in the village went away, a group died, a group died, and a group left again. This kind of thing happened so often that everyone became numb.

In the final analysis, it was the fault of the war, and Yu Feng couldn't be blamed.

If there is no Yu Feng, even these thirty men will be buried in other places, and the cold food will be eaten during the Qingming Festival. Even if women want to burn paper money for their men, they will not find a place.

At least there is Yufeng in their village. With him, the women will have a backer, and people from other villages will not dare to bully them easily.

It's too late for everyone to appreciate him, so how can they hate him?

Su Ye was silent.

It seems that he was thinking about it.
