If nothing else, he also has to apologize to others for the vegetables and grain that almost died in the sun.

For decades, the people of the Liu clan had never seen the people of the Wang clan take the lead in bowing their heads.

Now that they have seen it, the patriarch of the Liu clan also exhaled and said, "Virtuous nephew, now is not the time to talk about these things.

Let's talk about borrowing money first, and then the two of us will talk about it......"

When the patriarch of the Wang clan heard this, he immediately responded readily!

……

The village chief was naturally happy to see that the two families had a tendency to reconcile.

But he did not show it, but continued to talk about borrowing money.

"I know it's difficult for everyone to borrow money. At the moment, I think the only thing that can allow us to borrow money quickly is Yanhe and his family. ”

As soon as he said this, everyone present looked at Dongfang Yanhe and the two of them.

Seeing that they were all looking at him one by one, Dongfang Yanhe also stood up.

"I can help with borrowing money. But as we have discussed before, this money must be returned.

Before, a brother said that he had to draw a bet, and I think this is very necessary. After all, this silver is not blown by the wind, if someone turns his face and denies it afterwards, it is impossible for the two of us to suffer this loss. ”

If the family doesn't pay it back, that's nothing.

But here's the thing, it's easy to learn the same thing!

If half of the people in Xiantang Village did this, the two of them would not be human inside and out......

Everyone understands the meaning of Dongfang Yanhe.

And everyone only made a guarantee, and the silver in the coming year will be collected by the patriarch and clan elder of each clan, and finally handed over to the village chief.

When the amount is made to be correct, the money is returned.

After determining this, Dongfang Yanhe also responded.

Seeing that he had agreed to such a big thing without Ye Chuliang's permission, he couldn't say anything at the moment, but after the people dispersed, he grabbed Dongfang Yanhe and didn't allow him to leave.

"Clan Elder?"

"You kid, you just promised the village chief, you don't ask your daughter-in-law yourself!?" The clan elder was afraid that Ye Chuliang would be angry, "If your daughter-in-law is not happy, you just wait to be beaten!" ”

As soon as he heard this, Dongfang Yanhe also laughed, "You stopped me just to tell me this?" ”

"Why, don't you think it's serious!?"

This is not something that can be solved with ten taels of silver, there are so many fields in Xiantang Village, there is no way to solve this matter without two hundred taels!

The two hundred silver didn't fall from the sky, can his mother-in-law not get angry when she goes back!?

Seeing that the clan elder was so worried, Dongfang Yanhe said, "Actually, before the village chief proposed it, the two of us had already discussed it." ”

"Yes, it's really not easy to deal with this. But it can't be helped, is it? If the two of us don't go out and borrow money, who else in the village can borrow so much silver? ”

Nor are they boasting, but that's what it is.

If the village chief has any other way, he won't ask himself in public......

"Huh...... That being said, it's no joke if the money doesn't come back in the future. ”

Even if only two hundred taels of silver were borrowed this time and distributed among every household in the village, the family would have to pay a little more than one or two!

Maybe this more than two points of silver is nothing for the two of them, but for other families, it is already a lot of money.

With so much money, not many families can take it out casually.

Ye Chuliang walked and saw that her man was gone, she looked back and saw that the clan elder was talking to him, so she fell back.

This time, she heard the words of the patriarch full of worry.

She leaned over with a smile and said, "Clan Elder, don't worry about this. We have the village chief to give us a reassurance, nothing will happen.

And I also think that the people of our Xiantang Village are not so bad-hearted. ”

People lend so much money to deal with the problem for them, if they really don't pay back the money in the future, this matter will spread in the future, and it will not be a good thing for the whole of Xiantang Village!

Seeing that the two of them already had ideas and were ready, the clan elder nodded helplessly.

"Well, since you've all figured it out, I won't say more. But who will you ask to borrow this money? ”

"The shopkeeper of Tianxiang Building." Ye Chuliang said, "We helped him some time ago, and he should be willing to borrow it." ”

Moreover, the shopkeeper Tian has already started selling ice cubes now, and it is estimated that it will not be long before there will be money.

Anyway, I borrowed it first, and after the division was settled, she would use her own money to pay it back to others.

It's just that she doesn't plan to tell the clan elder about this, otherwise he is afraid that the old man will be so angry that he will pick up a cane and beat himself and two of them!

Borrowing money is not as difficult as imagined at all, because as soon as Ye Chuliang and his wife said it, the shopkeeper Tian directly took a hundred taels of silver tickets and five twenty taels of silver ingots to them.

"This matter can't be delayed, and you don't have to say anything kind to me, go buy medicine first!"

The locust plague is no joke, and if you delay for a day, the locust eggs in the field will become small locusts!

Shopkeeper Tian was so nervous, Ye Chuliang and Dongfang Yanhe didn't talk nonsense, they went directly to meet the village chief, and then went to the pharmacy to grab medicine.

When they returned to the village, men from all ethnic groups came together to help.

Everyone worked together until the evening, and then all the herbs were crushed into powder.

In the end, the village chief distributed the powder according to the size of each family's field, and asked them to take it home and scatter it in the field.

If you don't plant anything, just turn the ground, sprinkle it again, and turn the ground again, so that the effect will be better.

As soon as they heard this command, they all went home and went to work.

But this kind of preparation was far from enough, because Dongfang Yanhe found that some locust eggs had actually hatched into small locusts.

So the big guy made a fire in the ground overnight, and drew the little locusts into the flames, and they killed many of them.

It took five days of hard work for a village to sprinkle all the ground with powder.

In the past five days, every family has been working day and night, not to mention that the mother-in-law is so tired that she can't speak as loudly as before, even the men fall asleep when they go home.

Other people's families are like this, and Ye Chuliang's family is also like this,

No, she saw Dongfang Yanhe drill into the house as soon as he came back, and she didn't dislike him for not taking a bath.

She was also tired, but because she had to cook dinner, she moved with the leaves, so she lay down in the yard to rest.

"Second sister-in-law, now that we have made so many preparations, it is estimated that this locust plague will not happen, right?" Liu Ye asked.

Ye Chuliang shook his head when he heard this, "It's hard to say...... The village chief said that he had told the chiefs of several nearby villages about it, and that they were following us in doing the same.

It's just that this matter, I guess it's not just our neighborhood. ”

This year's weather is really too dry, and it doesn't rain everywhere, and they have it here, and there will definitely be it in the distance.

And as long as there is such a thing as locust plague in one place, it is not just one place that suffers.

"But even if it really affects our Xiantang Village at that time, I don't think there will be any big problems."

And she remembered that this locust could still be eaten!

In the past, in the 21st century, there were many people who caught locusts and sold them.

I heard that when they were very young, locusts were a pound a dollar.

Now I don't know how many times the price of this locust has risen, and twenty yuan a pound may not be able to buy it!

In addition, many people in the village now do not have food in stock.

If there is really a locust plague, it is a big deal to mobilize the people in the village to catch locusts!

When the time comes, you can eat it for a few days.

Hearing what his sister-in-law said, Liu Ye also sighed, "It seems that this matter can't be avoided." ”

"It's a blessing or a curse, it's a curse that can't be avoided!" Ye Chuliang said, "Even if something like this really happens, it's actually nothing.

There is no food in our village now, and the vegetables in the field have been harvested one after another in the past few days.

If you can't accept it, I guess everyone will accept it in the next two days. ”

If you wait until the locusts come, it will be too late.

Dongfang Yanhe himself was sleeping in it, but he vaguely heard their aunt and sister-in-law talking, so he simply opened his eyes and moved out.

Seeing him come out, Ye Chuliang was a little sorry, "We're talking and arguing about you to sleep, right?" ”

"I didn't fall asleep myself." Dongfang Yanhe smiled, "But you two don't have to worry so much, this time all of us have made efforts."

Even if something like that happens, it's fine. It's a big deal, and when the time comes, our family's food will be taken out......"

As long as you survive the past two months and it rains, the village will move to plant vegetables!

Earn a wave before the winter, and after the winter, every household will make a greenhouse, and you can make the same money!

As long as you are not lazy, as long as you are not ambitious, you will not starve to death.

Ye Chuliang recognized what he said, "That's right, I think so too."

As for the food in our family, the people in the village can save some of it, and they can eat it for at least half a month! And every household also received some green vegetables, and if you save some more, you can eat nothing for a month.

As long as this plague of locusts has passed and it rains, we will be able to do it again! ”

Seeing that the two of them were so confident, Liu Ye, who originally felt a little difficult, breathed a sigh of relief.

"Second brother and second sister-in-law, since you are all so confident, I think I have to cheer up!"
