Just one pregnancy and four babies, but the prince actually pledged his love to her

Li Mengyue had no objection to the village head's grandmother finding one more person.

On the contrary, I think this is better, more people can do the work more easily.

However, she also realized that the woman named Lingling probably had some unspeakable secret.

So what? As long as she can do her job well, she won't say anything.

Seeing that everyone was present, Li Mengyue began to assign tasks.

Goudan's mother removed the locust's wings, and Dazhu's mother cleaned them.

……

While everyone was busy with their own things, Li Mengyue went back to her room for a while.

She saw that she had collected nearly 100 kilograms of locusts today, and they could not be used up by making fried locusts, so she needed to find another way.

It's time to put raising ducks on the agenda.

When she arrived at the room, Li Mengyue's consciousness entered the space and found the infinite breeding base.

The command is: "Dumpling, dumpling, the base becomes bigger."

After giving the command, the Infinite Breeding Base immediately became larger. He clicked on the crystal screen, selected the livestock, took out a prepared duck egg, and put it inside.

The screen changes, and you can choose to hatch one hundred ducks, five hundred ducks, one thousand ducks, ten thousand ducks, etc.

Of course, the Infinite Breeding Base also has a more humane function, which is that it allows users to set the number of hatchings according to actual needs.

As for raising ducks, Li Mengyue plans to proceed step by step. She cannot raise tens of thousands of ducks at once. She will start with a thousand ducks, and then raise tens of thousands in a few days.

But a thousand ducks is not too many, but not too few either, and it is not realistic to keep them all at home.

After all, the yard of the house they live in now is not very big, so it seems they have to buy a piece of land specifically for raising ducks.

Seeing a small hill outside her yard, Li Mengyue had an idea in her mind.

So when Li and the village chief's wife were busy with five people, Li Mengyue went to find the village chief.

When I arrived at the village chief's house, I didn't find anyone.

"Hey, Li girl, are you looking for the village chief?"

Li Mengyue looked at a smiling lady and asked her, and replied: "Yes, lady, do you know where the village chief went?"

"Where else can we go? It must be in the fields. Now everyone is catching locusts in the fields. Who would stay at home idle? One pound is one penny."

Hearing the old lady say that the village chief had gone to the fields, Li Mengyue prepared to go to the fields to find the village chief, but Xinghua Village was not small, and she didn't know which field the village chief had gone to.

"Auntie, which piece of land did the village chief go to?"

"This one, I guess it's going to the southwest."

After getting the definite answer, Li Mengyue raised her foot and walked away.

"Girl from the Li family, don't leave yet. Wait for me for a while."

Li Mengyue didn't understand what was going on, so she stood there and waited for a cup of tea. Just as she was about to leave, she saw the old lady running towards her, panting.

“Give…give…”

"Ma'am, what is this?"

The old lady took a while to speak and explained, "Girl Li, this is the wild vegetable dumpling that I made. I wanted to give it to you to try. Please don't despise it."

Seeing the expectant look in the old lady's eyes as she held the wild vegetable dumplings, Li Mengyue couldn't really say no, and her hands moved faster than her mouth.

Before she could figure out how to refuse, the wild vegetable dumpling was already in her hands.

The old lady was a little nervous at first, worried that Li Mengyue would not want it. After all, she was a rich lady before, and she had seen all kinds of good things. She had eaten countless delicacies, such as sea cucumbers and abalone. Unexpectedly, she took the wild vegetable dumplings from her hand without the slightest bit of disgust.

"Thank you, Auntie. I like it very much."

"Okay, okay, if you like it, I'll make it for you."

"Then I'll go to the field to find the village chief first."

"Look how confused I am. I should have sent you home directly and not delayed you from going to see the village chief. Go quickly and don't delay anything."

Li Mengyue saw that the old lady wanted to talk to her, but when she heard that she wanted to find the village chief, she anxiously pushed herself towards the field. She suddenly felt that the old lady was quite cute.

Following the direction pointed by the old lady, Li Mengyue walked for a quarter of an hour and saw the village chief.

Without saying a word, he walked to the village chief, only to see that he was also bending over to catch locusts like the other villagers.

Unfortunately, the village chief was old and not as nimble as the young men. The locust flew around and the village chief couldn't catch it.

Li Mengyue was standing nearby, and couldn't bear to watch the village chief's clumsy movements, so she quickly and accurately caught the locusts, put them in a small bamboo basket on the ground, and covered it with a bamboo lid.

When the village chief saw that his target locust had been caught, he subconsciously said, "That little bastard, do you think I'm going to..."

Facing Li Mengyue's half-smiley gaze, the village chief stood up straight, straightened his clothes, and coughed a few times: "Yue girl, I don't want to catch locusts to sell for money, I just want to experience whether it is difficult to catch locusts."

"Yes, I just want to see if it's hard to catch."

Li Mengyue pretended not to notice the village chief's embarrassment and said, "Grandpa Village Chief, can you sell the hill next to my house?"

"It can be sold. It is the village's asset. What's the matter, Yue girl? Why are you asking about the little hill?"

"Grandpa Village Chief, this is it. Didn't I tell you that I wanted to raise ducks?"

"Yes, yes, yes. He also said he wanted to sell locusts to you. Each family must raise ten ducks. Don't worry, I told the villagers about this at a meeting yesterday afternoon. Everyone understands and is willing to cooperate."

"Grandpa Village Chief, I've thought about it and I don't think we need to force ourselves to raise ducks. The reason I asked about the hill is that I want to buy it and raise ducks."

"What!" The village chief's voice reached a new height, making Li Mengyue's ears buzz.

When the village chief saw Li Mengyue covering her ears, he realized that his voice was too loud, so he spoke in a lower voice again.

"Girl Yue, you are not kidding with the village chief, right? Do you know how big that hill is? How many acres of land are there?"

Of course Li Mengyue knew that it was a small hill, and it was no different from a small mountain. However, compared with the towering mountain behind it, this hill was indeed a little small and not very noticeable.

"Grandpa Village Chief, no matter how much, I will buy them all."

“I bought them all.”

Seeing the village chief's look of disbelief, Li Mengyue didn't say anything and directly took out a silver note worth one thousand taels from the space.

Although Village Chief Li has a high status in Xinghua Village and his word is final, he has never seen a silver note with a face value of one thousand taels.

After calming himself down, he said seriously, "Girl Yue, the hill is the village's asset, with a total of 1100 mu. There are 200 mu of land at the foot of the hill. Since it is wasteland, if you want it all, it will be charged at one tael of silver per mu. In addition, the house you live in now is also given to you."

Li Mengyue knew that wasteland and mountain land were cheap, but she didn't expect them to be so cheap. A small hill plus 200 acres of wasteland only cost 1300 taels of silver.

Without any hesitation, he handed the one thousand taels of silver to the village chief, and then took out another four hundred and fifty taels of silver.

"Grandpa Village Chief, I've bought the small hill and 200 mu of wasteland for a total of 1350 taels of silver. You can use the remaining taels to arrange for the land deed. No matter how much is left, I'll give you taels of silver as a reward for your hard work."

"Girl Yue, you have already helped the village a lot by buying it. The village chief doesn't want any hard work fees. Don't worry, I will go to the county town now and try to help you get the job done as soon as possible."

"Okay, thank you, Grandpa Village Chief. Can I put a fence on the hill and raise ducks now?"

"Of course you can. Why are you being so polite to the village chief? You don't know that everyone in the village, young and old, is grateful to you. You have given them hope. What the village chief has done is nothing compared to what you have done. Well, I won't talk to you anymore. I'm leaving now."
