Being able to farm: starting from moving to the village and picking up furry
Chapter 71 I’m worried! My head hurts!
Although going to the market is a normal activity, it is not just about buying and selling things. It is also a good place for farmers in the surrounding area to exchange information and enhance their relationships with each other.
At the market, I would occasionally run into familiar people, and we would exchange a few words as soon as we met. I also knew a lot of big and small things happening in other villages.
In an era when people had to walk to get out and shout to get in touch with others, going to the market was also a way for people to spread information.
Of course, for distant relatives and in-laws, if someone has something to do and we cannot normally notify them individually, we will also inform them when we go to the market.
If you are lucky enough to meet someone at the market, tell your relatives in person. If you don’t meet them, that’s okay. Just tell the people in your relative’s village and when they go back, they will naturally help to inform each other.
Xia Qingyu smiled and watched the lively scene in front of her. Since the end of the previous life, people no longer went to the market.
There were people coming and going, and the path was a bit narrow, so Xia Qingyu and the others waited for a long time before finding the right time to join the crowd.
Following the person in front of us, we moved slowly. The distance was quite close, so it was normal to get bumped occasionally, or bump into others if we were not paying attention. No one cared much, and there were no complaints. Instead, they said to each other in this small space: "Hey, be careful."
"Hey, the one in front, make way, be careful not to bump into me."
It was almost noon at this time, the sun was high in the sky, and people on the street were busy buying and selling things, bargaining, and the atmosphere was equally bustling.
People who are carrying loads on their shoulders, bamboo backpacks, or vegetable baskets in their hands, in crowded and narrow places, cannot take care of so many things and are easily scratched from time to time.
Next to his wife, Li Yanxi's tall figure stood out from the crowd.
He kept his eyes on the surrounding situation. When someone was pushed towards him, he stretched out his big hand to block the person. He completely protected Xia Qingyu and did not let her be bumped or squeezed by people going to the market on the street.
As for Li Yanfeng and his brothers, they were herding pigs while taking care of their father.
They have thick skin and it's no big deal if they get squeezed or fall down, but my dad is old, and if he bumps and falls, he will suffer more.
"Ouch, my hair!" A woman who was buying vegetables was squatting on the ground picking vegetables when her head was hit by a man carrying a bamboo basket next to her. When the man walked forward, he accidentally pulled the woman's hair and body, and she fell to the ground uncontrollably.
"Auntie, you scratched someone's hair! You scratched someone's hair!" Li Yanchuan, who was standing by, hurriedly helped the woman who was about to fall, and at the same time grabbed the old lady who was carrying a bamboo basket and warned her.
"Thank you, young man." The woman covered her head with her hands and thanked Li Yanchuan.
"Oh, sister, I didn't see anyone. It was too crowded. I'm really sorry." The old lady came to her senses, hurriedly put down the backpack, squatted down to help the woman, and untie her hair that was tangled in the bamboo bag.
Because the old lady was too anxious, when she squatted down, her butt bumped against a basket carried by a person carrying a load in front of her, and she cried out in pain.
"Sister, are you okay?" The woman whose hair was shaved off was not angry. She looked up and asked others.
"It's okay, it's okay." The people who bumped into each other smiled and reached out to help.
"Wow, there are more and more people coming. I guess those who come from far away have almost all come here, even if they didn't take ox carts." The eldest brother Li Yanfeng and his brothers kept a close eye on the wild boar for fear that it would accidentally hit people going to the market on the street.
"Oh my God, there are so many pigs. Which slaughterhouse bought them? Why are they coming into the city at this time? Won't this cause trouble for everyone?" Someone shouted, covering his nose and retreating far away.
This man's words made Mr. Li and his companions feel a little embarrassed. They looked at the pig more carefully and drove the wild boar forward, wanting to get out of the vegetable market as soon as possible.
"What are you talking about? Are you jealous of others because they have so many pigs? That's why you say such sour words."
"Old men, hurry up and go ahead. Don't let the pigs block the road." A farmer with grass in his mouth hurried over to help drive the pigs.
"Thank you, brother." Li Yanzhu and his brothers thanked him.
"Hey, you're welcome." The other person smiled heartily, waved his hand, squeezed into the crowd, and went back to his stall to sell things.
"Then let's let these pigs line up and walk." Xia Qingyu was afraid that the wild boars would step on other items for sale, so he specially arranged the wild boars into a straight line.
She also gave the wild boar the illusion ability of an ordinary domestic pig. They drove the pigs out from the back door of Wanfu Restaurant, and had to pass through the entrance of Wanfu Restaurant before they could go towards the other restaurant.
"Hey, big brother, it's too hot today. I think it's because of the fire in the mountains to the north. Many wild animals in the mountains have been burned to charcoal. I'm afraid other towns around here can't get all the prey we need."
On the second floor of Wanfu Restaurant, several officers in official uniforms with swords on their waists were sitting at a table drinking and occasionally picking up peanuts on the table with chopsticks.
They groaned as they ate, which made the waiter who served the dishes a little bit at a loss. He served them even more carefully, fearing that he would neglect them.
"Damn it, requiring so many live wild boars, isn't that just trying to make things difficult for us?!" A bearded official was a little impatient. He slapped the table so hard that the peanuts jumped out of the plate, scaring the waiter who was pouring wine.
"Brother, calm down. It's shameful to waste food." The companion at the side reached out in time and retrieved a few peanuts that were about to roll off the table.
The waiter next to him bowed and said respectfully, "Gentlemen, the dishes have been served. Please enjoy your meal. If you need anything, just call me."
After leaving these words, the waiter threw the handkerchief over his shoulder and walked out. His steps became faster and faster, as if someone was chasing him. He took two steps at a time, opened the door and left in a flash. He was afraid that he would be scared to death if he stayed in this room any longer.
"It is indeed obvious, but we know it but there is nothing we can do. What can we do if the higher-ups make things difficult for us? The county magistrate is probably going bald by now."
"Oh! I'm so worried! My head hurts!"
"The people above don't care whether the forest is on fire or not. If we can't gather enough wild boars in Muqiang Town, we brothers who are responsible will be in trouble, and the county government will also be implicated. It's still a question whether we can keep our jobs."
Lu Liang, the leader, did not speak. He was not even in the mood to drink or eat at the moment. He leaned against the open window, looking into the distance, with a cloud of worry between his brows.
"Damn it, we haven't seen a single live wild boar so far, and we haven't even touched the butt of that damn poisonous snake."
