Chapter 118 Rejection

A sweet smell spread between the two, faint, but filled the room, and every corner seemed to glow with pink light.

The moment Chen Youyi lowered her head, Qin Ziheng walked up to her. He is tall, but his steps are very light, and he often approaches others without being noticed, which is frightening.

Although at this time, Chen Youyi will have a heartbeat no matter what the other party does, even if it is not scary.

"Sleep." Qin Ziheng put away the table and took one of Chen Youyi's hands. Chen Youyi nodded slightly, and almost no one saw it except herself.

In the dead of night, it was peaceful and tranquil, and the water droplets slowly fell under the eaves, falling to the ground and falling into eight petals. After a while, another drop.

That's the remnant of the ice melting, and the weather is warmer.

The next day, Chen Youyi went to the villagers and told them about planting peppercorns and chili peppers, but the results were beyond their expectations.

I thought that even if it was impossible to be accepted all at once, there would always be a few who would be willing to try. But in fact, there is no one who wants to.

"The daughter-in-law of the Qin family, what kind of pepper are you talking about, we countrymen have never heard of it, can this kind of thing really be sold? If you can't sell it, isn't the hard work of this year or two years in vain? ”

Especially the pepper tree, that is a tree, just listening to Chen Youyi said, from breeding to growing into a big tree, it will take two or three years, and the yield and quality in the first few years will not be very good.

For such a long time, for the villagers, it is unacceptable.

Chen Youyi knew that this was just an excuse. If the pepper tree is too long to pay in the early stage, then they can choose the pepper as an annual herb.

At the end of the day, it's just not daring to take risks and having no vision for the future.

Qin Ziheng also wanted to persuade, but was stopped by Chen Youyi. Reluctance is useless, but will cause resentment, since the villagers can't accept it now, she won't be reluctant.

Although it was originally to repay most of the villagers for their later care for her and the Qin family, Chen Youyi has always hoped to help the villagers get rid of poverty and live a more comfortable life.

However, the other party is unwilling to accept it, and she has no obligation to stubbornly pester. If she has money to make, she takes the initiative to pull the other party, she feels that she has done her best, and the other party refuses to complain about others.

Having said that, I still feel a little uncomfortable being rejected. Mourning his misfortune and being angry with him, Chen Youyi's heart was repeatedly occupied by these two emotions, and she ate one less bowl of rice.

When the Qin family saw it, they were all quite uneven, and they became more gentle with Chen Youyi.

Chen Youyi's discomfort only lasted for a day, but she quickly cheered up, and she began to work on the specific matters of planting double peppers.

"If you want to grow something, you have to have a piece of land." Chen Youyi walked around the village a few times, trying to find a suitable place. The mountain side is reserved for planting pasture, and there is a dense forest shade, the sun cannot penetrate a large area, the light conditions are too poor, the primrose vitality is tenacious, and it can sprout and grow anywhere, but it is not good to plant others.

Especially like pepper trees and pepper seedlings, they all need sufficient light, otherwise it is a problem not to mention how they grow and whether they can survive.

Qin Ziheng proposed: "Isn't there still a few acres of land at home, our family's field is in a good location, and the grain harvested is also a lot every year, it is quite fertile, it is a good land." ”

He was so generous that he took out the only land in his family and offered it with both hands, which provoked Mu Xiulian to look at him, but in the end he didn't say anything, and when he asked for advice, he nodded and agreed.

"You want to plant trees in the field, and I have no opinion, that is, can you not finish planting and leave a little food for planting, we can't go without food."

Even if she knew that food could be bought with money, and the Qin family could afford to spend this money now, Mu Xiulian still felt that it was too wasteful, besides, the countryman, who didn't grow food, isn't this a joke?

"It's good not to plant, you can also rest." Qin Ziheng had other thoughts: "These few acres are not too much, and they are not too much, and they are tired of making so much grain every year." ”

He calculated, although spending money on food is a little expensive, it is still worth saving a year of hard work: "If I am at home, I will do these jobs in the fields." But I'm too busy, and I don't want you to be too tired. ”

Spring plowing and autumn harvest are all tiring and troublesome farming, Qin Ziheng has experienced it, and he can better understand that it is not easy for Mu Xiulian to manage family affairs as a woman.

Mu Xiulian paid for her family, and she was willing to do so. But if she is willing, it doesn't mean that she won't be tired, and she won't feel wronged. Qin Ziheng's words pierced her heart, instantly making her eyes red.

My son has grown up, knows the hardships of life, knows how to be considerate of others, and is very happy for my mother. At this moment, Mu Xiulian didn't hesitate at all, and agreed with both hands to keep the ground and plant double peppers.

The support of the Qin family made Chen Youyi very moved, but she still rejected this suggestion.

"It's a pity that such a good land is used to grow pepper trees." Peppers can be planted in the field, this annual plant, without taking a lot of land.

Chen Youyi was full of hope for the ground, and the Qin family also helped to come up with ideas, but in the end there was no conclusion.

The price of the field is too high, and it is too expensive to grow peppercorns. And except for the Qin family's fields that really belong to them, just one acre and three points, which is far from enough to plant peppercorns.

As for renting land, it doesn't work, except that the previous one is too expensive. There is also a rule that landlords are reluctant to rent out their land to plant trees. Once the trees are hit, the land is prone to barrenness, and in the future, if the tenants stop planting, it will take a long time just to clear the roots in the field.

"Let's think of something else." Chen Youyi is not discouraged, there is no one in the village, so she will expand the scope and look for it, there is a lack of everything else in the countryside, will there be a lack of land.

She was still looking for an address here, but an unexpected guest came that day.

"You're back, Lord Xu is here!"

The little couple who came back after a circle outside, and before they entered the courtyard door, they were pulled by Qin Huai, who ran out: "Mother told me to look for you, just when you are back, come in, Lord Xu is waiting for you." ”

"Lord Xu, is that Lord Xu from the county official?" The only Master Xu that Chen Youyi knows is the Xu Linfeng who looks like a handsome son, and he can't help but be very strange, what is Xu Linfeng looking for them?

When I entered the room, I saw that the one sitting in the hall was not Xu Linfeng?

"Lord Xu, what kind of wind blew you here?" Chen Youyi and Qin Ziheng stepped forward to salute, and Mu Xiulian, who was at a loss on the side, was relieved to see them coming back and hurried out.
