Because of the good harvest, everyone was very happy tonight, and even the children seemed to feel the joy of the adults and played to their heart's content.

It wasn't until the first watch that everyone dispersed, and by the time the two of them packed up and washed up and went to bed, it was already two watches.

"Daughter-in-law, you haven't answered my question yet."

Xiao Dalang lay on the bed, tossing and turning and couldn't sleep, at night in the kitchen, he said so clearly, but his daughter-in-law didn't say anything, so she kicked him out. Does she mind, or doesn't mind?

In fact, Xiao Dalang's heart was really entangled at this time, he wanted to make his daughter-in-law angry, and he was afraid that his daughter-in-law would be angry. I just tossed and turned for a long time and couldn't sleep.

After a busy day, Xia Cicada was sleepy, but the people around her tossed and turned, and she also suffered insomnia. When I heard a voice in my ear, I looked up and saw a pair of dark eyes looking at her seriously

"Is Xiao Qinqin the daughter of the family that moved back from the county seat some time ago?" She knew most of the people in the village, and occasionally a few she didn't know, and she had some impressions, but she didn't have any impression of this woman.

remembered what Wang's sister-in-law talked about some time ago, and saw the woman's dress, and looked at the family.

"Yes, she is Uncle Xiao's youngest daughter. When Uncle Xiao didn't move into the county seat, he treated me best, and often carried Aunt Xiao on my back to give me food when I was hungry. Because of this, back then, I loved Qinqin as my own sister......."

Xiao Dalang's past, you don't need to listen carefully to know that it is scarred, but after living for so many years, who hasn't had a few sad things.

"Then what about later, when did their family move to the county seat" The woman's sixth sense is very accurate, she doesn't believe that the person named Xiao Qinqin will come to him for no reason, there must be something between them that she doesn't know.

Hearing this, Xiao Dalang's eyebrows frowned slightly, and he didn't speak for a long time. Until Xia Chan thought he was asleep. He said in a low voice

"Five years ago."

The next day was a sunny day, and the corn had to be peeled before it could be dried. After breakfast, several people gathered in the yard and began to peel the corn.

When Murong Ye came. They've been busy for quite some time. Xia Chan originally thought that they would not come over today, but she didn't expect it to come again. Could it be that the county government is so idle? The ancient official was about to snicker.

But if Xia Chan knew that the reason why Murong Ye had time to come here during the day to show his eyes was because he worked all night last night, I don't know what he would think.

"When will all this corn be peeled?"

Murong Ye ignored Xia Chan's disgusted gaze. As soon as I entered the door, I took a corn and looked at it for a while, and then looked up and asked what I thought.

Xia Cicada looked up at the corn beside her, thought for a moment, and said, "Two days." ”

"Can it be faster?" The corners of Murong Ye's eyebrows frowned slightly, obviously dissatisfied with Xia Chan's answer

"No, we're not a machine, so much corn, two days is the limit"

"Then if you find someone to help you, you can take it off in one day. Probably how many people, you calculate, I'll pay for this money"

When did this person become so generous, she didn't forget how this man picked the door when he sold capers. However, someone pays for it, and she is not a fool, of course she agrees.

I silently calculated the approximate number of people needed in my heart, and asked my sister-in-law Wang to help find a few women to come over to help, and for a while, the originally spacious courtyard seemed crowded. Murong Ye held the bench. He took some pastries from the house and sat under the eaves and ate them while watching them work.

Although Xia Chan is majoring in agriculture, it does not mean that she is willing to watch farm work. Especially peeling off the corn husk. After a little time, his hands will hurt, and he will see Murong Ye with a leisurely and enjoyable face, and his heart is a little unbalanced, why do you say that he is the one who finishes the day, and he is the one who sits on the side?

Xia Chan got up and walked to Murong Ye. snatched the plate in his hand and said with a displeased face

"Since it's the day you said, don't you want to contribute to this thing?"

"Joke, don't forget that I paid for you to hire someone. Also, if I'm a parent official in a county, if you treat me like this, aren't you afraid that I will condemn you? ”

"Then you're done. I don't care, if you don't help anyway, even if it's done today, I won't let you overdo it. See what you can do with me" If you can't solve it by force, then it's okay to be unreasonable.

"You ......" Murong Ye couldn't say it angrily, and in the end, he was still defeated. obediently moved the bench to do it, but, after all, he is a rich child, such a simple thing, after watching it several times, he can't grasp the essentials, for this reason, the onlookers have nothing to say.

More than a dozen people were busy all morning, and when it was almost noon, Xia Cicada got up and planned to make lunch, thinking about so many people, just make noodles, save trouble, and be full.

The beautiful moment is always short-lived, and it is hard to come out of the shadows of yesterday, today, the sun has not yet sprinkled the entire courtyard, and the best has come to the door again. When Liu led a group of people into the courtyard, Xia Chan just got up and planned to go to the kitchen to cook. As soon as he turned his head, he was almost hit by the summer cicada in front of him.

Since the time of Old Man Ge came to an end, Xia Chan knew that this day would always come, after all, she was the last backer of the old mansion, and Xiao Shilang also lost his rich life because of this, I heard that the day after Old Man Ge was imprisoned, Ge Yuer left a letter of closure and left Yeyuan Town.

Since then, Xiao Shilang can be said to have been empty of people and money, and after the government sealed Ge Fu, Xiao Shilang also moved back to the old house. A few days ago, the old house didn't come to look for trouble, Xia Chan still wondered, sure enough, people can't stand the chatter, no, it's here.

"Daddy, why are you here, there are a lot of people in our family today, and there is no place to do it, don't you mind"

Xiao Dalang got up, walked in front of Xia Chan, and blocked her behind him.

Liu didn't say a word, he rushed up angrily and slapped Xiao Dalang in the face, his voice was loud and crisp, and the courtyard, which was originally a little lively, was silent suddenly.

Xia Chan didn't expect Liu to slap people as soon as he came up, and raised his hand to touch his cheek, fortunately, Xiao Dalang was in front of her just now, otherwise.......

Xiao Dalang was not a little surprised by Liu's action, he raised his eyes and looked straight at Liu, and a strange smile slowly rose at the corner of his mouth, and the people who watched it felt cold in their hearts

"Mother, as soon as you entered the door, you didn't say a word, and you came up and gave me a slap in the face, can you tell me the reason, otherwise, what should I do next time?" )
