Rebirth of a Cute Kid's Parallel World Adventures

Chapter 29 Grandpa and the villagers discuss the details of sweet potatoes and potatoes

After the meeting, Grandpa, being old and having stood for a long time, slowly walked home with slightly weak steps.

As soon as he entered the house, he immediately began to prepare for the move.

Just as Grandpa was busy, his second and third uncles arrived unexpectedly.

They originally just wanted to ask about sweet potatoes and potatoes.

But upon entering the house and seeing everyone busily packing their luggage, a sense of unease arose within me.

They quickly asked, "What exactly happened?" After some explanation, their second and third uncles finally understood.

It turns out that the eldest brother's family bought a brand new house, and the grandparents were going to move there.

After understanding the situation, the two immediately joined the packing team without saying a word, working together to help their family pack their belongings.

Just then, several respected and esteemed elders from the village slowly walked over, leaning on their canes.

Their purpose in coming here was to discuss specific details about sweet potato and potato cultivation with their grandfather.

However, after witnessing the bustling moving scene firsthand, the elderly people were initially taken aback.

He then smiled kindly and said he was willing to put aside what he was doing and go home to call the young and strong men in his family to help with the move.

As the saying goes, many hands make light work. With the joint efforts of many enthusiastic people, all the furniture and items were successfully moved to the new home—the home of Huayeman—in just about an hour.

As night fell and the city lights came on, the Huaye Man family sat around the dining table. After enjoying a sumptuous and delicious dinner, they leaned back in their chairs and chatted leisurely.

Just then, a series of light but hurried footsteps approached from afar. Immediately afterwards, several respected elders from the village appeared at their doorsteps with smiles on their faces.

Before they could even get down to business, another commotion suddenly broke out outside the door.

Upon closer listening, it turned out that the speaker was the village head of one of the neighboring villages.

It turned out that after the meeting ended that afternoon, some attendees couldn't wait to share this exciting good news with their relatives and friends.

Upon hearing the news, several neighboring villages, fearing they would miss a golden opportunity, rushed over overnight, eager to participate in this important matter concerning sweet potato and potato cultivation.

After everyone was seated, Grandpa explained the agreement that Huaye Man's family would provide the seeds, everyone would plant them, and one-tenth of the harvest would go to Huaye Man's family.

Then they asked the respected elders of the village what they thought. The elders hadn't answered yet.

The other village heads couldn't wait to ask, "What about us?"

Just then, Grandpa cleared his throat and spoke again: "Regarding the harvest from other villages, my family only wants 10-20% of the harvest. The rest is yours to decide. Does anyone have any thoughts or opinions on this?"

Upon hearing this, everyone looked at each other, but quickly shook their heads, indicating that they had no objections.

One of them quickly responded with a smile, "Oh dear, how could we possibly have any objections! If we did, we probably wouldn't even have land to cultivate!"

At this moment, several elderly people in the village also seemed to wake up from a dream and quickly echoed, "Yes, no objection, no objection!"

However, one of the elderly men then frowned and raised a new question: "When it's time to collect the seeds, there will definitely be a lot of people."

"We need to complete the registration process first, and we also need to check it carefully to prevent anyone from fraudulently claiming it."

"In addition, we need to identify all the people who come to collect the seeds. This is no easy task! Each village needs to send some people, but how do we determine who should be chosen?"

Grandpa nodded slightly after hearing this, lost in thought. After a moment, his eyes lit up.

He said confidently, "Yes, this is indeed a question worth considering. In my opinion, the selection of candidates should be left to the village heads of each village."

"As for those who came to help, their families can receive the seeds first as a reward. What do you all think of this arrangement?"

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone present nodded in approval and shouted in unison that the idea was absolutely brilliant.

After everyone left, Hua Yeman's two uncles arrived at the house one after the other.

The two of them stood respectfully in front of their grandfather and said in unison, "Father, our eldest brother's family is having a feast tomorrow! We came here specifically to see if there's anything we can do to help."

"Also, could you please think of any other matters that require your assistance?"

Grandpa looked at his two sons with a face full of satisfaction and slowly said, "Seeing that you have been able to change your mindset, turn over a new leaf, and become good people again, I am truly happy from the bottom of my heart!"

"Moreover, you all know to help each other and unite as brothers. This truly proves the old saying, 'When brothers are of one mind, their strength can break metal!'"

At this point, Grandpa paused slightly, his expression immediately turning serious.

Then he said sternly, "But you all better remember this: you must keep your wives and children in the house in check. If they still don't repent and cause trouble all the time, don't blame me for being ruthless as their father!"

Hearing their grandfather's words, the two brothers nodded repeatedly and assured him, "Dad, you can rest assured! We'll definitely keep them under control and won't let you worry about us anymore!"

At this point, Grandpa said again, "There is indeed something I need your help with. It's about the sweet potatoes and potatoes. One person needs to register them, and the other needs to check them. I think the two of you are quite capable."

Upon hearing this, the two brothers' eyes shone with determination, and they said in unison without hesitation, "Father, don't worry! We will definitely do our best to help with the work and won't let you down!"

After saying that, the two nodded heavily to show their determination.

Grandpa looked at his two sensible children, his heart filled with pride and emotion. He slowly reached out and gently patted the brothers' shoulders.

He sighed and said, "My children, as long as you can be honest and down-to-earth and do things conscientiously, I will be content!" After saying that, Grandpa smiled and looked at them.

Hearing their father's words, the two brothers blushed with excitement and were so overjoyed that they couldn't speak for a moment. After a long while...

The second uncle stammered, "Father...Father, thank you so much!" The third uncle nodded repeatedly, muttering words of gratitude.

After everything was settled, the second and third uncles also took the sweet potatoes and potatoes back home.

The Huaye Man sisters made up the bed for their grandparents so they could rest well.

Grandpa and Grandma lay in bed, saying with emotion, "It's so good to be with the children. I feel so much younger." The three sisters felt a warmth in their hearts upon hearing this.
