916 Cutting leeks?

Shen Wangxin glanced behind him, and saw that it was a bamboo fence that had been destroyed by brute force, shook his head and said, "The third grandmother and I are both from a poor background, what kind of tea can't be drunk?" It's not the first day you've been here, what are you doing all this? ”

Li Er touched his head and smiled innocently, and his face showed sadness again: "I just hope that this wall can be repaired as soon as possible." You don't have to worry about these every day, you don't know, those villagers don't know where they heard about it, the garden is full of Western vegetable seeds, even if you get up in the early morning, you have to steal some back. I went to their village chief to reason, but the village chief relied on the old man and pulled me by the collar, saying that I had beaten him. ”

"That's unreasonable, isn't it?" Aunt Shen was taken aback, and asked again, "Didn't you report to the official?" ”

Li Er said bitterly: "I reported to the official once, and the Beijing Yamen sent a catcher to come over." But as soon as the people heard that they were just stealing some food, they said that the yamen didn't care about these trivial things. I think they just don't want to care, so they made such an excuse. ”

Only then did Shen Wangxin realize that there was a faint bruise on Li Er's face. If you don't look closely, you really can't see it.

She sighed and said, "Thank you for your hard work." ”

"Where is the owner, if it weren't for the owner's support, I would still be selling calligraphy and paintings on the street!" Li Er immediately shook his head.

He was the steward brought by Shen Wangxin from Yangzhou, when there was a big flood in Yangzhou, and his mother almost couldn't survive because of the plague. He has been selling calligraphy and painting all these years, and he has saved a little silver by helping people write letters, which has long been spent.

When the mountains and rivers were exhausted, he happened to meet Wuwei Yaozhai recruiting trainees, and he held the mentality of going out and followed Shen Wangxin blindfolded. Maybe it was because of his bad luck in the previous 20 years, but this time he took a shit luck, not only cured his mother, but also got better day by day.

If you ask him who he is grateful for in this life, in addition to his biological parents, it is the forgetfulness that saved him from fire and water.

Shen Wangxin knew that he was going to talk the same old thing again, so he simply ignored him, took Aunt Shen to the vegetable field, and looked at the crops planted in the vegetable field.

A thin old farmer smiled at Shen Wangxin and said, "Dongjia, don't you recognize it?" Leeks are planted in this field. ”

The vegetable farmers in this garden are all hired directly from nearby villages. The old farmer in front of him was very angry, and Shen Wangxin didn't remember where he had seen him.

In addition, for some reason, his tone of voice was always a little triumphant, which made Shen Wangxin feel a little uncomfortable, so he didn't answer his words immediately, but looked at the things in the ground strangely.

The old peasant followed behind Shen Wangxin and chattered: "What is it from the West?" Isn't it just leeks? The current rich children are really stupid, and the things that can be found anywhere in the entire Great Zhou have to be shipped from the West. ”

"Really?" Shen Wangxin smiled and didn't explain too much to the old farmer.

She has not been in the village before, and knows that some people are poor not because they don't have the opportunity to change. It's because the mind is too stubborn to accept something beyond cognition.

No matter how hard this kind of person tries, it won't change much.

Shen Wangxin also felt that he had no obligation to change the old peasant's worldview, so he did not continue.

Leeks are produced locally in Da Zhou, and she doesn't think Qi Wenzao will be stupid enough to transport leeks from the West.

However, the things in this field do resemble leeks.

She touched the stubble, which was obviously cut with a sickle, a very standard way of harvesting leeks. But Shen Wangxin didn't know why, and always felt that something was wrong.

She stood up and patted the dirt on her hands, frowned and asked the old farmer, "You are in charge of this land?" ”

The old farmer nodded, with a smug smile on his face: "Old man, I have grown vegetables all my life, and I have never seen leeks so expensive." Isn't it just a slice of leeks? He actually made such a big battle, and surrounded it with a fence. In our village, the east family goes to the west family to cut points, and the west family will go to the east house tomorrow to get some, which is like being so stingy in the garden. ”

Shen Wangxin just asked him a word, but he didn't expect him to say a bunch of words like a bellows.

Li Er walked away for a while just now, and after dealing with the matter at hand, he saw Shen Wangxin frowning from afar.

He had also seen this old farmer, and immediately walked over to separate him from Shen Wangxin, and said with a straight face: "You old man talks too much, and it's just in front of us in the past." But the owner is such a noble person, it is your turn to teach you a lesson? ”

"I don't dare say anything else, but what's in this vegetable patch. I eat more salt than you have walked, old man! The old peasant snorted unconvinced, and under Li Er's warning gaze, he walked to the side of the field and sat down, not knowing what he was talking about.

Li Er sighed, turned around and was about to talk to Shen Wangxin, but saw her with a serious face.

He was shocked in his heart, and thought that this old farmer had caused Shen Forget to be angry, so he immediately said: "Although this old man's mouth is broken, he really has nothing to say about his work. If the owner doesn't like it, let him come to you less in the future. ”
