Just one pregnancy and four babies, but the prince actually pledged his love to her
Chapter 267 Yongkang Prefecture
He was deceived into buying the seeds at a high price.
Because we didn't want to waste the crops, we asked the second son to plant them on three acres of dry land.
Before planting it, he thought it would be white seeds, so when the family was divided, he gave it directly to the second son. He never thought it was actually soybeans.
Some time ago, Li Mengyue hired someone to harvest the crops.
I heard that his cheap granddaughter used soybeans to make tofu that no one had ever eaten.
He had never tasted it, but he heard that both the fried tofu and the bean curd cake were delicious.
He scoffed at the time, thinking it was impossible and that the villagers were just saying that on purpose to please Li Mengyue.
But now he regretted it so much that his intestines turned green. If he had given the second son three acres of paddy field, he would only have to harvest fourteen acres of rice.
Although Old Man Li felt regretful, it did not stop him from asking the village chief for help.
She didn't say anything at this moment, but just knelt in front of the village chief and wiped her tears.
Old Mrs. Li's mind was rarely clear. She realized the seriousness of the matter and dared not say anything.
He imitated Old Man Li and knelt in front of the village chief.
The village chief was so angry that he almost laughed when he saw Li Gui and Zhou Zhaodi in front of him.
This is because they know that the hard approach won't work, so they try the soft approach.
However, even though he knew that Li Gui and his wife were shameless, he would not really ignore them.
If the Li family's old house really runs out of food, they will definitely look for Li An, which will cause trouble for Yue girl.
Besides, Li Hai has not yet moved out of the Li family’s old house. Without food, how will Li Hai and his family survive?
The village chief didn't want to care about it at this moment, he just cursed in his heart.
He waved his hand and called out to the villagers who were still catching locusts.
"Everyone, listen to me. Send some people to the fields of the Li family's old house and harvest as much as possible before the locusts enter the village."
"Bang Bang Bang!!!"
"Thank you everyone, thank you everyone."
Li Gui kowtowed three times in a hurry.
Well, after hearing Old Man Li’s kneeling, I have no choice but to help.
Some villagers could see clearly what Old Man Li was thinking.
But we also know that now is not the time to get angry, as food is the lifeblood of farmers.
No matter what, we have to wait until the grain is harvested.
After finishing their own work, the villagers were reluctant to rest and wanted to catch more locusts to sell for money.
Without even bothering to drink water, he put on his clothes that had already been soaked with sweat, told his wife and children, and hurried to Li's field with his sickle.
"The grain at the old house has been confiscated. I'll go and lend a hand."
Li An was also angry about what his father did last night, but there was nothing he could do.
Now that he saw the villagers were helping to collect grain, if he didn’t go, not only would he be criticized by everyone, he would also feel uncomfortable.
Some of the strong laborers in Xinghua Village went to Li Gui's fields to help harvest rice, while the others went home obediently to rest after drinking Lingquan herbal tea.
Hopefully when they wake up, they will have more energy to catch locusts and make more money.
Not to mention saving enough money to buy food for three to five years, at least you should not have to worry about food for one or two years.

The prefecture adjacent to Qingshan Prefecture - Yongkang Prefecture!
As soon as the sun rose above the horizon, the hardworking villagers of Xieyang Village had already gotten up early and were ready to go to the fields to work.
The sky looks gloomy, as if something big has happened.
Zhao Cuicui walked out the door as usual and heard a buzzing sound.
She didn't take it seriously and continued walking out. Suddenly, her eyes widened, her face turned pale as paper, and all the strength in her body was drained away.
Countless locusts swarmed towards Zhao Cuicui.
"what--"
A shrill scream woke up Zhao Cuicui's man.
Wu Jun hurried out the door and saw his wife lying on the ground.
"Cui Cui, why are there so many locusts? Come inside quickly."
"Boss, boss, my legs are weak and I can't get up."
At this time, Wu Jun's eyes were also blurry. He found his wife by feeling, picked up Zhao Cuicui and walked into the room.
Zhao Cuicui turned her head to look back and was shocked by the scene in front of her.
She had never seen so many locusts in her life.
Trembling, he said to Wu Jun, "The boss...something...something big happened."
As soon as Zhao Cuicui finished speaking, a locust suddenly flew into her mouth.
"what--"
There was another scream. Fortunately, the couple returned to the room, only to see locusts everywhere in the house.
Wu Jun didn't care about his wife and quickly closed the door. He then pushed the chairs and tables in the room behind the door, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing that his wife was really frightened, he hugged her in his arms again, patted Zhao Cuicui's back like coaxing a child, and said softly, "It's okay, it's okay."
In fact, although Wu Jun said that everything was fine, his heart sank to the bottom when he saw the room full of thumb-sized locusts.
After his wife's emotions gradually calmed down, Wu Jun pushed Zhao Cuicui away.
"Cui Cui, please stay in your room. I'll go out and take a look."
"No, sir, I'll go with you."
"Be good, Cuicui. You don't know what it's like out there. If anything happens, I'm afraid I won't be able to protect you in time."
While talking to his wife, Wu Jun quickly put on his clothes and put on his hat.
Feeling that this was not safe enough, he took out a thick cotton jacket and put it on.
Zhao Cuicui also put on her clothes.
Wu Jun had no choice but to tell his wife: "Follow me and be careful. If you find something wrong, run back inside."
Zhao Cuicui nodded repeatedly: "Boss, I understand."
When she and her husband walked out of the house again, the scene they saw made them extremely desperate.
The sun, which should have been high in the sky, was covered up at some point.
Dense swarms of locusts, like dark clouds, kept pouring towards their area from all directions.
The buzzing sound made by the locusts when they flapped their wings and flew gave them both a lingering fear.
"God, please leave us some way to survive!"
"Wow……"
"Woooooooo..."
The crying of children and the complaints of adults, amid the howling of locusts, still reached the ears of Wu Jun and Zhao Cuicui clearly.
They knew the crying came from the neighbor's house.
But at this moment they can't even take care of themselves, let alone others.
Locusts with metallic wings continued to fly in.
The calm ground was blown up by the locusts into gusts of wind, and the dust was flying everywhere.
Wu Jun stood in the yard blankly, holding a wooden stick in his hand.
"Master, the crops in the fields have not been harvested yet."
Wu Jun, who was in a daze, came back to his senses when he heard his wife's words.
Without even telling his wife to be careful, he ran to the fields.
There was little rain and the land was too dry, which affected the growth of crops and led to a significant reduction in yield.
But when the locusts came, wherever they went, whether it was crops, weeds or trees, they were all eaten up in an instant.
