The whole family traveled through ancient times with their house
Chapter 73 Jiang Yan rescues people, Dong Hu protects his shortcomings
Zhang Xiaoqi thought carefully and said, "It seems so."
"What do you mean by seeming? It is."
Seeing the two grown men arguing over two sweet potatoes, Yichen wanted to say again, "I'm dying of laughter."
But before she could even laugh, the two men's thoughts were so unconventional that they changed the subject with just one thought.
"Hey, Lao Zhang, how much do you think this bunch of sweet potatoes weighs?"
After hearing Captain Dong's question, Zhang Xiaoqi weighed the sweet potatoes in his hand and said with bright eyes, "This one in my hand must weigh at least five or six pounds."
"I have it in my hand too."
"so much?"
"So what are you waiting for? Start digging."
"Master, you can use a shovel or a pickaxe to dig sweet potatoes."
"Who can dig sweet potatoes?"
"Yes, but you have to be careful not to break or damage the sweet potatoes. Otherwise, they will rot easily."
When Captain Dong heard that shovels and pickaxes would easily rot the sweet potatoes, he immediately gave up the idea of using those tools to dig the sweet potatoes.
Especially since they heard Yi Chen say that the best sweet potatoes must not have their skin broken.
The two people became even more convinced that they could not use tools to dig sweet potatoes.
Although it's tiring to dig out a sweet potato with bare hands, it's not easy to rot it. Besides, their hands are old hands. Years of wielding knives and carrying guns have long honed their "iron sand palms", so digging a sweet potato shouldn't hurt them at all.
Yichen couldn't argue with them, so she could only let their big hands move around in the soil like small bulldozers, digging out the sweet potatoes one by one.
Looking at the sweet potatoes piled up into a small hill behind him, Dong Baihu's heart was filled with excitement again.
"Old Zhang, look at how old you are."
"I don't want to look. I just want to finish digging quickly so I can use the scale to see how many kilograms of sweet potatoes this half acre of land has produced."
The two people's eyes are like a ruler. At a glance, they can tell that the two things planted by Mrs. Jiang are both planted on half an acre.
As they dug, they thanked Madam Jiang for not planting much. Otherwise, their hands would have been unable to bear it.
Yichen: I can’t blame others if I can’t stand it. These two people are just looking for trouble and they create difficulties for themselves.
Yichen had all kinds of complaints in her mind, but since she didn't say them out loud, no one else would know.
Just as Yichen was enjoying the admiration of the two human-shaped excavators, she heard a burst of hurried horse hooves coming from not far away.
Yichen heard it, as did Captain Dong and Zhang Xiaoqi. They exchanged glances, stood up in unison, and without even bothering to brush off the dirt, ran towards the sound of horse hooves.
Yichen began to understand that the visitors might be outsiders. Captain Dong and Zhang Xiaoqi didn't want them to know about the sweet potatoes and potatoes.
Hehe, she doesn’t want anyone to know either.
Others are not as easy to talk to as Captain Dong. Yi Chen has become accustomed to Captain Dong's approachable personality and does not want to face the cold stares of others.
What should she do? If she wasn't in the water, she would be at a loss.
Fortunately, at the critical moment she thought of her own mother.
"Mom, come and help quickly."
"Oh."
Jiang Yan was preparing lunch at home with the two girls from the Ye family. She was also surprised when she heard her daughter calling her at home.
She made an excuse to go to the toilet and went into the house after reaching the room.
"Baby, what's wrong?"
"Mom, the captain seems to not want those people who just came to see the sweet potatoes we planted."
"Has Captain Dong seen the sweet potatoes we planted?"
"Not only did they see it, they dug up a lot. Mom, you didn't see Captain Dong and Zhang Xiaoqi just now. They really thought they were human excavators. They were kneeling in the sweet potato field with their big butts sticking out. That posture was just unbearable to watch."
Jiang Yan listened to her daughter's vivid description and waved her hand, saying, "Just talk about the most important things."
"Don't let the people coming behind find the sweet potatoes we planted. I'm afraid we won't be able to protect them."
Whenever Yichen thought about the things she and her mother grew being taken away by others under various pretexts, she felt uncomfortable.
After hearing what her daughter said, Jiang Yan understood and immediately asked her daughter to take her out of the house.
Jiang Yan landed right next to the pile of sweet potatoes. She didn't expect that Dong Baihu and Zhang Xiaoqi were so efficient. She felt that they had only been here for a short time and had already dug out so many sweet potatoes.
"Mother~"
"Hey!"
With her daughter's reminder, Jiang Yan quickly used her wood-related abilities. In the middle of the cornfield leading to the sweet potato field, a patch of tall wormwood grass, taller than an adult man, instantly sprouted.
Jiang Yan was still afraid that she could not hide it from some people's prying eyes, so she evenly spread the pulled out sweet potato vines on the hill-like pile of sweet potatoes.
Jiang Yan looked around again, and seeing that there were no flaws, she wanted to go back.
But before she could return home, she heard strange noises coming from the cornfield, and Zhang's angry shouts.
Jiang Yan knew that something bad might happen, and she didn't care how abrupt her appearance was, so she rushed over with her daughter in her arms.
In the open space in front of the cornfield, a greasy and wretched man was waving a knife in his hand towards Zhang.
Zhang was holding Changsheng in her arms and didn't dodge in time.
Many people saw this scene, but they were all at a certain distance and could only watch as the sword was about to fall on Zhang.
Ye Dalang's eyes were bloodshot and he flew over.
But someone was faster than him. Just as the wretched man's knife was about to fall on Zhang, he felt a force from between heaven and earth, hitting his wrist hard.
"Ah!" The wretched man knelt on the ground holding his wrist and screaming. The knife in his hand was separated by a vine and fell to the ground.
"Mom, you're awesome."
Yichen saw everything and clapped her hands to cheer for her mother.
"You bitch, how dare you hit me? Do you know who I am?"
"Could it be that your father is Li Gang?"
Captain Dong and Captain Wei, who heard the noise and ran over, happened to see this scene.
Captain Dong was of course protective of his subordinates, and the first thing he said when he stepped forward was, "Madam Jiang, what's going on?"
"This beast took his knife, which was supposed to kill the enemy, and swung it at women and children instead."
"What?" Captain Dong had always disliked Liu Gousheng, so he went up and kicked Liu Gousheng hard on the arm.
There was a "crack" sound, and this time Liu Gousheng's arm was completely broken.
"Ahhh!!"
Liu Gousheng howled even more miserably, and Captain Wei, who followed behind him, glanced at Captain Dong and Jiang Yan with disapproval.
He murmured reluctantly, "When you beat a dog, you still have to look at its owner. Can't you give me a little face?"
Captain Dong didn't want to suffer this loss at all, and said bitterly, "Master Qianhu, if you keep carrying this thing around with you again, your reputation will be ruined by it sooner or later."
"Uh~" Captain Wei really wanted to say, "I don't need your instruction on how to do things." But when he caught a glimpse of Liu Gousheng lying on the ground screaming, he swallowed back what he wanted to say.
