Mrs. Gu is sixty or seventy years old, and she usually walks tremblingly, but she jumped up at this moment, slapped the back of the spitting man's head, and scolded angrily: "Do you dare to spit out a mouthful of water again?" ”

The man was furious: "You bad old woman, you dare to beat me, see if Lao Tzu doesn't beat you to death......"

Before he finished speaking, he felt countless cold eyes stabbing at him, and when the man looked up, he saw countless people around him.

These people were in the prime of life digging ditches, covered in tendon flesh, dozens piled together, looking like majestic mountains.

The man swallowed back the unfinished words, turned around and ran away, and the people from Zhangjia Village also quickly followed, and disappeared at the entrance of the village after a while.

Li Zheng walked down with his hands behind his back at this moment, and said with a serious face: "We must guard against these turtle grandsons in Zhangjia Village, they must do such a thing as poisoning!" ”

Gu Qing said: "I think we can strengthen the security patrols in the village, protect the water in the mountains, protect the rice in the fields, and protect the grain of every household. ”

Before, some people thought that the security guards in the village were a little redundant, but today the people of Zhangjia Village openly broke into Gujia Village and spat in the ditch, which made many people angry, and made everyone feel that it was very necessary for the security guards to take turns patrolling.

At this time, almost the whole village was there, and the middle-aged labor force was also there, and it didn't take much effort to select the security personnel who would patrol every day.

And the water in the rice fields is gradually increasing.

A layer of shallow water reflects the blue and yellow rice ears, reflects the blue sky and the scorching sun, and also reflects the people standing on the ridge one by one, this water is like a wisp of wind blowing away the haze in the hearts of thousands of people in Gujia Village for two months, and the atmosphere is excellent for a while.

Old woman Gu took Gu Qing's hand: "County Lord, thanks to you this time, without you, I'm afraid that my bad old woman won't be able to survive this year!" ”

Li Zheng's wife wiped her red eyes: "County Lord, you are a good person...... Every time there is something in the village, you come out to help solve it, this time your husband and wife found out that the water is not hidden, you are such a good person, you should live a long life......"

Aunt Zhao followed and spoke: "County Lord, you are a living Bodhisattva......"

Gu Qing was a little shy when he was praised, and quickly changed the topic: "Isn't this water irrigation, just put the whole land in front of the house and behind the house to grow some vegetables, can any of you have vegetable seeds to our family?" ”

Aunt Zhao answered: "I have some cabbage seeds at home, I'll give you some back." ”

Li Zheng's wife said: "If you want leeks, if you like them, go to our house and get a little." ”

The topic was successfully diverted, and Gu Qing breathed a sigh of relief.

She also successfully borrowed a lot of vegetable seeds, all of which are suitable for sowing vegetables at high temperatures in summer, because of the drought and lack of water this year, not many people in the village grow vegetables.

She smiled and thanked everyone, but in her heart she thought that there were no tomatoes, cauliflower, onions, and potatoes at this time...... It's a pity that there are so many delicacies missing from the dinner table.

The crowd on the ridge gradually dispersed.

After working for more than two days, the men went back to rest, while the women carried water to the front and back of the house to irrigate, preparing to plant something in the garden.

The next day, Xia Zhu drove the carriage and took Gu Meng to Fucheng, and the Zhang family took the Song family and several members of Gu Qing's family to Zhangjia Village with IOUs to ask for silver.

Gu Qing took people to the pepper field to harvest a large number of ripe red peppers.

The men of the village began to raise seedlings.

At the end of July, Li Zheng convened a meeting of all households to prepare for the harvest of rice, although this year everyone in Gujia Village has no shortage of silver in their pockets, let alone food, but who will dislike a lot of food.

The whole of Nanzhou Province is planting two-crop rice, all of which are promoted from their Gujia village, and it is said that other prefectures will send people to learn the two-crop rice planting technology at that time, and their village can't make jokes.

When the autumn harvest was busy, Gu Qing gave the workers in the two workshops a holiday.

In the 90s, the school even gave students a holiday every autumn harvest to let the children go home to help harvest rice.

Under the scorching sun, the villagers were busy in the fields, from the elderly in their sixties and seventies to children in their four and five years old, all doing what they could.

This year's autumn harvest will be much easier.

There are more than 20 people in her family plus the people she bought, so she doesn't need to go to the ground herself, she asked Mama Liu to cook tea to cool off the heat, and send it to the field every other hour, so as not to faint from heat stroke for busy people.

In five or six days, all the rice at home was put away, dried and threshed into the warehouse, and half a month passed after all the work was done.

The rice barns are full, which is the happiest thing for rural people.

And Gu Qing's family is also going to have a happy event, which is the marriage of Zhu Lian and Zhao Daya.

Last year, the two families set a wedding date, and in late July, that is, as soon as the autumn harvest is over, they have to hurry up with the marriage.

There are not so many things to pay attention to in the countryside, that is, life is better now, so I prepared a lot of things needed for the wedding in advance.

Zhu Han couldn't come back, so he could only ask Gu Qing to help prepare a lot of dowries, Gu Qing also added some privately, and similarly, the Zhao family also married a lot of dowries, and it took three or four trips to pull them all over, which is the only one in the village.

On the day of the wedding, it was a cloudy day, and it was hot for so long, and it suddenly became cool, which made the old lady call it auspicious.

"County Lord, you don't have to do anything today, you will be the officiant." Aunt Zhao said in a loud voice, "If you come to officiate for marriage, the two of them will definitely be prosperous and prosperous in the future." ”

Gu Qing was a little at a loss.

The original owner has married five husbands-in-law, but she hasn't even talked about a serious relationship, so let her marry? She didn't know what to say or do.

She turned her head to look at the villagers, but everyone looked like they should be, and no one noticed that Gu Qing didn't know it at all.

Seeing that everyone was looking at her expectantly, Gu Qing could only grit her teeth and agree.

The sky gradually brightened, and the courtyard became more and more lively, and Gu Qing's family also invited festive gongs and drums to line up, making this celebration even higher.

"The groom has finally cleaned up!" Mrs. Zhao pulled Zhu Lian out of the house, "A few of the boys who went to pick up their relatives together are not dressed, hurry up!" ”

Zhu Lian was wearing a bright red groom's dress, and her face should have been treated, looking white and clean, with a somewhat handsome appearance.

The brothers of the Gu family, Gu Lin, Gu Zhi, Yang Huai, plus Gu Nuo, four people, in pairs, the number is auspicious.

After everyone arrived, they set off, and the distance between the two houses was not far, so you can walk forward.
