Koi baby helps his mother farm and becomes the richest man

Zhou Yu then discussed exchanging grain with Uncle Chen Jiu: "I will exchange an equal amount of grain with you, and the new grain you harvest will be left for others to use as seed. What do you think?

“Seriously speaking, it’s Tongshutun that’s at a disadvantage, but in these extraordinary times, we can only let you endure some injustice.

"I will definitely make it up to you in other ways in the future."

"That's not necessary," Uncle Chen Jiu smiled and waved his hand, "Although I'm old, I'm not confused!

"You are a good official! You are able to get food for us ordinary people in this day and age. I wonder how much effort you have put in!

"Besides, I know that if you hadn't been here during the autumn harvest, it's doubtful whether we could even harvest all the grain!

"Even when we first started farming, people often came to harass us. If we didn't have people watching over our farmland day and night, the seeds we planted would have been dug out and eaten!

"Even so, we had a few fierce fights. People saw that we were willing to risk our lives, and the surrounding villages had also started to cultivate the land, so they stopped coming.

"Now that it's time to harvest the crops, more people are coming to steal."

At this point, Uncle Chen Jiu couldn't help but sighed deeply, "In fact, before the drought, there were no bandits around here. You had to climb over several hills to find them, and they were at least a hundred miles away from us.

"But after the drought started, people changed.

"All of a sudden, a lot of desperate people showed up.

"Alas, who doesn't want to live? Why do some people kill and eat people, while others just wait to starve to death?

“It’s nothing more than his true nature being exposed in the face of great disasters.

"These people who wear their heads on their trousers are really not afraid of anything and are capable of doing anything.

"To be honest, when Yingzi first picked up An'an, she was targeted by bandits who wanted to attack her at night.

"I believe the master also knows that during the famine years, these inhumane people loved children like An An and young girls like Ying Zi the most.

“Not to mention, the Zhao family also has Hu Zi.

"This family consists of women and children...

"Thanks to the good deeds of our ancestors, the two bandits who came that day failed to succeed and were even injured."

Zhou Yu's heart tightened. If he could have arrived at Tongshutun earlier, would the Zhao family have been spared from being harassed by bandits?

Uncle Chen Jiu continued, "There's a sequel to this. I originally wanted the villagers to carry those two bandits out and throw them away.

"Who knew, there were two strangers in the crowd, and they carried the man away.

"I am old, hungry, and a light sleeper, and I smell the odor of meat."

At this point, Uncle Chen Jiu's face was filled with disgust and fear, and his voice was trembling: "That's the smell of human flesh!"

Zhou Yu's face turned pale, and he asked in a cold voice, "Do you know where these bandits' hideouts are?"

"I only know the general direction," Uncle Chen Jiu said, perking up. "Are you planning to suppress the bandits?"

Zhou Yu's face turned as cold as ice. "If I didn't know, it would be fine. But now that I know, I naturally can't let these vicious people go!"

Uncle Chen Jiu's face was filled with joy. He knelt down and was about to kowtow: "Then you have accumulated great virtue! I thank you on behalf of the villagers!"

If these bandits are not eliminated, they will always be a hidden danger. These honest farmers always think about how to work hard on the land, but those bastards will not let them live in peace!

Zhou Yu hurriedly helped him up.

"Master Jiu!" Zhao Hu's voice came from outside the yard. He was holding the beautiful baby An An in his arms.

The uncle and nephew were originally playing in their own yard. An An accidentally turned on the surveillance camera and discovered the conversation between Zhou Yu and Uncle Chen Jiu, so they came out to play and led Zhao Hu to this side.

Uncle Chen Jiu hurriedly greeted with a smile: "Come on! Come in! I just ground some walnut paste, just right for An An to try!"

An An has curved eyebrows and eyes, and when she opens her pink little mouth, the word "Master" is clearly written.

Uncle Chen Jiu was even more delighted: "Oh my, our An An can talk now?"

"He can call people, sure," Zhao Hu thought bitterly, "but his pronunciation isn't very clear yet."

Zhou Yu grabbed An An into his arms halfway and asked with a smile, "What about me?"

An An tilted her head and looked at him, as if she was thinking for a while, then she called out "Uncle" vaguely.

Zhou Yu's brows relaxed, and he took out a white jade peace locket the size of a copper coin from his arms. He carefully tied it around An An's neck and said to Zhao Hu, "This rope is a bit old. Go back and ask your mother or your sister to make a new one."

Zhao Hu quickly declined: "This is too expensive!" Although he had not seen much of the world, he knew that this was definitely a good thing!

Zhou Yu smiled faintly and said, "It's not worth anything. I just like this doll, so it's just a small token of my appreciation."

Uncle Chen Jiu was an old and wise man. He rolled his eyes and said with a smile, "You little idiot! This is An An's fate! What does it have to do with you?"

An An: I’m so lucky today!

I received 0.01 on the way here, and now I received another 0.01!

From the same person!

As for this piece of jade, although it is also a good thing, once she has enough energy, she can have as much as she wants! At worst, she can double the amount and give it back to the handsome uncle!

Zhao Hu was not good at speaking and didn't know what to say for a moment.

Uncle Chen Jiu dragged him into the house, asking him to get walnut paste.

After entering the house, Uncle Chen Jiu lowered his voice and said, "You are not called Zhao Hu in vain! You are so fierce all day long!

"What is the identity of this Mr. Zhou? With this good relationship, there will be someone to take care of your family of orphans and widows from now on!

"Your mother is getting older every year, your sister is as thin as a stick, and An An is so young. Can a teenager like you protect the three of them?

"I, your ninth grandfather, am already buried up to my neck in the earth. Even if I wanted to take care of you for a few more years, I'm afraid I can't do it.

"Your thighs are finally right in front of you, why don't you hug them?"

Zhao Hu was speechless.

Uncle Chen Jiu instructed him to warm up the cold walnut paste, scooped out two bowls and brought them out, one for Zhou Yu and one for An An.

Walnut paste is made by grinding walnut kernels into powder and boiling them with water. It is milky white with a hint of brown and has a special aroma and bitter taste.

Zhou Yu had drunk walnut juice before, but at that time his family's cook used only imported walnuts, and carefully removed the placenta, crushed them, boiled them with milk, and then carefully sifted them.

Some osmanthus, roses or icing sugar will also be added according to the owner's requirements.

This was the first time he had tasted such rough walnut pulp.

However, he looked at An An lovingly and felt inexplicably distressed. This child might have eaten something like this for the first time in his life.

He scooped up a spoonful of walnut pulp, blew it cool carefully, and carefully fed it to An An.

An An happily ate it and gained another 0.01 energy.
