Chapter 155: Covetous

The news of the planting of chili peppers spread in the village, and the villagers, who didn't care much about it, were moved. Originally, they were reluctant to plant peppers, firstly, because they were afraid that they would not be able to grow them; Second, I am afraid that I will not be able to buy it if I plant it. Although the Li family said that they would buy it all.

Later, Li Xiaonuan used edamame to promote chili peppers. Many people began to regret it. Before the peppers began to be planted, they went to ask Li Xiaonuan for seeds. As a result, Li Xiaonuan refused.

At that time, they didn't complain much about Li Xiaonuan's unsympathy. After all, if there is nothing planted, they still have no bottom in their hearts. But now, when people really grow things, those people will naturally be able to see the interests in their eyes.

"Xiao Nuan, didn't you say that there are a lot of extra pepper seedlings before, can you give a few to your mother-in-law?" An old woman from Jiuzhou Village came to chat with the old lady, and asked Li Xiaonuan who came out to send her off when she left.

Li Xiaonuan didn't think much about it, just said a word and wait, and then turned around and went into the kitchen. In the middle of the ring, she took out a small basket of tender chili seedlings, handed it to the mother-in-law, and said, "Mother-in-law, these chili seedlings are delicious." If you want to eat it in the future, just come to our house and get it. In our field, there are a lot of flowerless pepper seedlings. ”

The old woman looked at the tender seedlings in Li Xiaonuan's hand in a daze, and didn't know how to talk for a while. Li Xiaonuan saw that the mother-in-law didn't pick up the pepper seedlings, so she said to her again: "Mother-in-law, why don't I help you get it back, and I will also go to your side to see the land temple by the way." ”

The wife came back to her senses and said with some disappointment: "Ouch, that relationship is good." With Xiao Nuan by your side, mother-in-law, I am not afraid of loneliness on the road. She thought to herself, when she was on the road, she would hint at Li Xiaonuan again.

On the way to the old Zhou Village, pass by the land where Zhou Liu Feifei planted peppers. At this time, in the three acres of land, rows of peppers were neatly planted. The extra peppers were planted in the soybean field next to them.

When the mother-in-law passed by the pepper field, she deliberately said: "Look at these pepper seedlings, they don't grow well when they are planted in the soybean field." I still have nearly an acre of vegetable patches there empty. Xiao Nuan, why don't you pull out some of those pepper seedlings and give them to your mother-in-law, so that your mother-in-law can plant them in the vegetable field? ”

If Li Xiaonuan didn't know the old woman's abacus at this time, then she would be a mallet.

"Mother-in-law, those pepper seedlings are pulled out and planted back, but I don't like peppers. Besides, I don't think it grows worse than anything else when planted in a soybean field. Also, my mother-in-law's vegetable patch should have to be sown with autumn vegetables, otherwise what to eat in winter. Li Xiaonuan pretended not to know.

The mother-in-law was choked by Li Xiaonuan like this, and her face instantly became unsightly. On the way from the field to Jiuzhou Village, the old woman hardly spoke to Li Xiaonuan again. Li Xiaonuan didn't care much either, because she was still inspecting the environment and planning her peach blossom garden.

There are many people who have the idea of pepper seedlings planted in soybean fields. When Li Xiaonuan came back from the old Zhou Village, she happened to meet Zhou Jingjing's eldest aunt and left with an unhappy face.

"Mother, why is Uncle Zhou upset?" Li Xiaonuan asked suspiciously.

Su Shi sighed and said helplessly: "It's not because of those pepper seedlings in the soybean field." Your Uncle Zhou said that she wanted to pull some and let her mother's family plant it in the vegetable field to play. It's a pity to say that it's the remaining seedlings anyway, and it's a pity to plant them in the soybean field. ”

Li Xiaonuan asked curiously: "What did the mother say?" ”

Su Shi was a little unhappy and said, "What else can I say." When they were asked to pull them back to the garden, they were not happy. Now, all those seedlings have been brought back to Aunt Yu, how can they be given to others. ”

Yes, Su Shi must have exerted her strong straightforward temperament again, and she didn't know that she had inadvertently offended people. Looking at Su Shi, who was becoming more and more restored to his nature, Li Xiaonuan was deeply satisfied. At least, her appearance saved this woman who was oppressed by life and lost her temper.

Li Xiaonuan nodded and said, "Mother is right, no matter who asks in the future, you just say so." Anyway, we gave them a chance in the first place. Now, we don't have to be polite to them. But you still have to be tactful, and you have to say that they don't have anything to refute. ”

Su Shi nodded Li Xiaonuan's forehead, and said dissatisfiedly: "You, you, dare to teach your mother to speak." How could my mother not know to speak tactfully. But some people just love to pretend not to understand, what's the use of you talking about your mother's tactfulness? ”

Li Xiaonuan smiled, took Su's arm and said, "Hey, you can say whatever your mother likes." As long as those people can understand. Mother, what about Dad? ”

The father and daughter had made an appointment to go to the field together. Li Xiaonuan has been back for a while, but he didn't see Daddy Li.

"Your father, I was called by Tuesday Quan. said that his son asked someone to write a letter and came back, and asked him to help read the letter. Su snorted, his face a little unhappy.

Li Xiaonuan asked tentatively: "Dad was invited to ask for pepper seedlings, right?" ”

Su Shi snorted coldly: "Your father, that good old man, I want to see what kind of refusal he has." ”

As Li Xiaonuan's mother and daughter said, Father Li arrived at Tuesday Quan's house, and after reading the letter for Tuesday Quan, he chatted and chatted about the pepper seedlings.

"Brother Li, do you see that those good seedlings are planted in the soybean field, are they wasted? Behind my house, just one acre of vegetable land has been vacated, so it is better to move some over and plant it. The harvest will be better by then. Tuesday Quan said with regret on his face, as if unintentionally.

Father Li was stunned for a moment, and only when he thought of the pepper seedlings that Quan Quan was referring to on Tuesday did he return: "It's okay, those pepper seedlings are growing well." I went to see it the day before yesterday and found that many of the seedlings had bloomed, no worse than those planted in other fields. ”

On Tuesday, I didn't know how to take it. But after all, he was a slippery head, so he said, "I'm not worried that when I cut soybeans, I will harm those seedlings." You see, the soybean clips are all yellow, and it's time to cut the beans. ”

Li Dad thought that this was the truth, so he nodded and said, "It's a little inconvenient. I have to go back and talk to Xiao Nuan to see what she can do. Those pepper seedlings can't be pulled out anymore, after all, they are already blooming. ”

In fact, Li Dad never heard the voiceover of Tuesday Quan's words. Therefore, the focus of his answer is not in the direction of Tuesday Quan's guidance. Tuesday Quan looked at Daddy Li's serious thinking, and almost didn't have a mouthful of old blood sprayed on the wall.

"Brother Erquan, thank you for reminding me, I have to go home, Xiao Nuan is still waiting for me to go to the ground. If you're late, it'll be dark when you come back. Father Li stood up and said, "Xiao Nuan and I went to the soybean field to study how to cut soybeans." ”

On Tuesday, Quan got up to see him off, and scolded Daddy Li for being a fool. As soon as Daddy Li left, Tuesday Quan kicked a dustpan in the yard away. At last he sat down on the steps, sighed, and said, "Well, who is to blame for this?" (To be continued.) )
