Chapter 169 Not Madam Jiang
The fields that have been cleared of weeds look lush and prosperous whether viewed from a distance or up close.
The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and I finally have a few days of free time.
When Captain Dong came to the Thirteen Banners again, he discovered the secret that everyone in the Thirteen Banners wanted to protect.
"Why do your crops look different from those elsewhere?"
"Why is it different?" Zhang Xiaoqi pretended to be stupid.
"Are you still trying to fool me? I'm not blind or stupid. The crops here are much taller than those elsewhere. Don't tell me you don't know."
"Boss, I really don't know."
"Haven't you counted yet? Then tell me, why are your crops growing like this?"
"This~" Zhang Xiaoqi also knew that this matter could not be hidden, so he pulled Captain Dong to the side and told him what he had seen that night in a voice that only the two of them could hear.
After listening to Zhang Xiaoqi's words, Captain Dong pondered for a while before asking, "You said there was something long and whizzing in the air?"
"Yes. Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh."
Captain Dong wanted to say, "Old man, please don't lie to me, will you?" But he knew in his heart that Zhang Xiaoqi would never lie to him. "So what happened next?"
"Then I felt a terrifying aura. It was even scarier than when we lost the battle and the bodies of our brothers were lying all over the ground."
Captain Dong understood that Zhang Xiaoqi was talking about the aura of death, and his heart skipped a beat. He quickly asked, "What happened next?"
"I was so scared I didn't dare to make a sound. Later, I don't know how long it had been, but I seemed to hear a voice. I couldn't hear it clearly at the time, but I just heard it say, 'Come out to this elder.'"
"Come out for this elder?"
"Yes. Then I heard the whooshing sound again, and then nothing happened. I thought I was dreaming because when I opened my eyes again, there was nothing."
"You had your eyes closed before?"
"Yes."
Captain Dong: I don’t know what to say.
"Really, Boss. When I opened my eyes again, I saw nothing."
Captain Dong was so confused by Zhang Xiaoqi's words that he began to doubt his life.
"I thought I was dreaming, so I went back to sleep. But when the sun rose, Old Wang woke me up. Then I saw that all our crops, including the weeds along the roadside, were much taller than they were yesterday."
Seeing that the eldest brother was silent, Zhang Xiaoqi continued, "No one knows what happened. Old Wang said that maybe a god passed by here last night and took pity on us, so he had a kind heart. Our crops..."
"It's a beautiful thought."
"It's not what we imagined, but what Old Wang said is more reliable. We also think so. Otherwise, as the eldest brother said, how could the crops grow half a head taller overnight?"
Captain Dong: He didn’t even have the right words to refute.
"Boss?"
"Let's go out for a walk." Captain Dong also wanted to see what the difference was between the places visited by the gods.
"Yes"
They looked at the fields beside the road, and Captain Dong asked, "Aside from their height, are there any other special features of these crops?"
"Yes. We all think this crop of wild vegetables is particularly delicious."
"Wild vegetables are delicious? Are you kidding me?"
"If the boss doesn't believe me, he can go pick some wild vegetables and try them himself. They are really delicious."
"You're treating us like rabbits."
"Boss, what I mean is that wild vegetables have become more delicious." Zhang Xiaoqi said this in a loud voice, and Guo Xiucai, Zhou Dasheng and others heard it.
Guo Xiucai acted indifferent, while Zhou Dasheng's face was filled with curiosity. "How delicious can wild vegetables be?"
"Old Zhou, don't believe me! The sonchus and dandelions no longer have a bitter taste, leaving only the fresh fragrance of wild vegetables. And the shepherd's purse is so delicious!"
"I want to eat everything you said." Guo Xiucai was a man of action. He threw the reins to Zhou Dasheng and ran towards the wild vegetables on the side of the road.
"No, scholar, why are you so anxious?"
"My mother has been suffering from a sore throat these past few days, so I picked some wild vegetables to bring back for her to change her diet. Huh?"
"Scholar, what's wrong?"
“These wild vegetables feel crisp and tender.”
"Yes. Look at the children from our Thirteen Banners. They've been digging wild vegetables in the fields these days. Even these wild vegetables are delicious when used to make vegetarian dumplings."
Speaking of steamed buns, Zhou Dasheng couldn't help but drool.
Captain Dong also noticed it and said, "Let's go to Second Uncle's place and see if the dough has risen."
"Walk."
Zhang Xiaoqi looked at their backs, informed his wife, and followed them.
They were in for a treat today. Uncle Zhou had made noodles this morning, and they had been planning to make steamed buns for lunch.
When he heard that Dong Qianhu and the others wanted to eat buns, he immediately agreed and asked them, "What kind of filling do you want, Qianli?"
The first thing that came to Dong Qianhu's mind was: "Chive and egg filling."
"Shepherd's purse and egg filling is also fine." Zhang Xiaoqi, who came over later, also expressed his idea.
Zhou Dasheng: "I like everything my second uncle cooks."
Guo Xiucai is not picky about food, but he said first: "Second uncle, make a few more. I want to bring some back for my mother to try."
"Okay, just wait for the buns!"
"Thank you, uncle."
"Why thank me for such a small thing? Just sit here and wait for your buns." Uncle Zhou Er said this and went to make buns.
Captain Dong's eyes were fixed on the corn seedlings that were as tall as his thighs, and he couldn't take his eyes off them.
Zhang Xiaoqi came over and proudly bumped his shoulder against Captain Dong's, saying, "Boss, looking at the crops of our Thirteen Banners, your mood has changed, hasn't it? That bright feeling can make you happy for the whole day."
"If all the crops in our entire Qianhu Division grew like this, I would wake up laughing in my dreams."
"Boss, you're asking too much. But..."
"But what?"
"The day before yesterday, my wife and Madam Jiang were talking, and I secretly overheard them."
"What were you eavesdropping on? You're showing off here again."
"My wife asked Madam Jiang, what is the harvest from the two mu of paddy fields we have?"
"What did Madam Jiang say?"
"Madam Jiang said that as long as there are no natural disasters or man-made disasters, one acre of paddy field can produce more than 600 kilograms."
"Really?"
"of course it's true."
"How many acres of paddy fields do you have in the Thirteen Banners now?"
"Mrs. Jiang has ten acres, the Ye family has five acres, and the other families have two acres each."
"Oh. That's thirty-five acres of paddy fields."
"Yes."
"Not counting Madam Jiang, you should be able to harvest at least 16,000 kilograms of rice."
"Why not Madam Jiang?"
"Do you think Madam Jiang will have the same output as you guys?"
Zhang Xiaoqi: …
