Since waking up early in the morning, Su Jian's eyelids have been beating. She looked in the direction of the courtyard gate, yesterday she assigned Xiong Da to apply medicine to the wheat with powdery mildew, and today to see the results. If not, then you can try again today, and tomorrow at the latest, there should be results.

"Maybe I should go myself?" Su Jian is actually very confident in herself, the only worry is that the raw materials here are insufficient, and she always has to find something else to replace, which leads to her being a little worried about the experimental results.

"Wow......"

There was a sound of footsteps.

Xiong Er hurriedly appeared at the gate of the courtyard, and when he saw Su Jian looking at him, he quickly tidied up his demeanor and walked in. In the past, Su Jian would look around, wondering if he could see Xionghong, but this time, he didn't have the heart to look around.

"Madame......" Xiong Er saluted.

It's not that Xiong Da came back in person, and looking at Xiong Er's face, it doesn't look like he brought back good news: "But what happened?" ”

Xiong Er's heart palpitated, and he said, "Madam, all the wheat in the wheat field where Xiong Da applied medicine yesterday died. ”

Su Jian's eyes sank, and they were all dead? How could this be the result!

Xiong Er saw Su Jian's complexion, thought about it, and said with relief: "Don't worry too much about madam, no one is perfect, madam is already very powerful, and occasionally there are mistakes, it's nothing." ”

Su Jian's eyes swept towards Xiong Er, and he got up directly: "Go over and take a look." ”

Su Jian said that when he went over to see it, he wanted to see it with his own eyes. When she arrived at the land, the area was surrounded by a lot of people, almost all of them from the village.

When the farmers saw Su Jian appearing, their faces were different.

Xiong Da walked to Su Jian's side with a gloomy face, and when he saluted and spoke, his words were full of guilt. Su Jian is now explaining to him less and less, obviously trusting him and giving him rights, but this time, he messed up things.

Su Jian glanced at Xiong Da, and then she jumped off the ridge to check the wheat.

Isn't there really a problem with the pesticides she is dispensing?

As Su Jian checked a few places of wheat, her heart sank, her face became even more gloomy to the naked eye, and even the temperature in her eyes disappeared.

"Is there a good deal with Iron Bull in the village?"

The village was in a hurry with Tie Niu, jumped off the ridge, and walked to Su Jian's side.

"Have you seen this wheat field?" Su Jian looked sideways at Zhenghe Tie Niu in the village, they claimed to be the best people in the village, why did the wheat die so obviously, she didn't believe they couldn't see it, if they couldn't see it...... Then they don't have the ability to serve as a master in the farming class.

Tie Niu's face was extremely complicated, he picked up a piece of wheat on the ground, and said with heavy eyes: "The wheat on the whole land suddenly lost its vitality, there is indeed a problem. ”

"Isn't there a problem, the wheat was fine yesterday, and with Madame's medicine, the wheat died." As soon as the peasant woman spoke, she received Xiong Da's warning gaze, she shrank her body, but she still had the courage to speak: "The general's wife is the official's wife, and we ordinary people naturally dare not do anything, but this is indeed the reason." I'm sure that's what the big guys think in their hearts. ”

Su Jian glanced at the person who spoke with heavy eyes, and then continued to look at Tie Niu: "What's the problem?" ”

The village and Tie Niu glanced at each other, and they were suspicious, but they were not sure.

Tie Niu hesitated for a while, and when he saw that Su Jian was still looking at him, he boldly spoke: "This wheat doesn't look like it was killed by medicine, but it looks like it was artificial." ”

Su Jian looked at Tie Niu, and her mood finally eased a little, the master of the agricultural class she invited must have some skills, so she dared to let them teach the people of the General's Mansion to farm.

"What about Lizheng? What do you think. ”

"I see the same thing as Iron Bull." The village is righteous.

"Tsk! Tie Niu and Uncle Li Zheng have just become the masters of the General's Mansion now, so they don't know where they are and where their roots are. The peasant woman spoke in a hurry.

Su Jian swept the knife at the peasant woman who spoke, and when she saw that the peasant woman shut up and dodged behind Ergou, she sneered.

"Uncle Li Zheng, I'm bothering you to gather the people in the village, it's best to all attend."

The village is surprised, and can't figure out Su Jian's intentions, if there is a problem in this wheat field, what should the whole village do? But Su Jian commanded, he had to do it.

Su Jian saw that the village was leaving, and after instructing Xiong Er to take care of the fields, he summoned Xiong Da and spoke in a voice that only the two of them could hear.

The peasant woman and the second dog couldn't figure out Su Jian's intentions, and seeing that Su Jian didn't speak or act for a long time, didn't they want to talk and not count, and rely on the compensation for the wheat field?

The peasant woman panicked, if Su Jian didn't compensate, she had no way to take Su Jian, after all, Su Jian was an official's wife, and she was just an ordinary person.

The peasant woman dragged the second dog to her knees, and spoke in a much higher voice than before: "Madam, please do it." We are a poor family, and the whole family is counting on this wheat field to live, and now that the wheat is destroyed, we just have no way to live! ”

Su Jian looked at the peasant woman who spoke with a condensed face, at first the peasant woman spoke very strongly, but now she suddenly softened her tone...... Is it to start playing the emotional card?

"Madame is Madame General! If Madame is unwilling to give us justice, we have no choice but to watch and wait for death. But ......" the peasant woman came from her heart, looked around, and saw the hoe in the hand of a farmer, she hurriedly got up, and snatched the hoe while everyone was not paying attention: "Early death and late death are death, why live a few more days and suffer!" ”

"The second dog family can't help it."

"Ergou, stop your mother-in-law quickly!"

……

Su Jian's face turned pale, looking at the peasant woman's movements, is the peasant woman ready to force each other to death? The people around were obviously shocked by the behavior of Ergou's daughter-in-law, and she hurriedly looked at Xiong Er.

Xiong Er understood, didn't say much, and only quietly walked in the direction of the woman.

"How much do you want me to pay you?" Su Jian didn't want an accident to happen before the matter was resolved.

The peasant woman's hand moved, and her eyes flashed with joy, this trick worked! She turned to look at Su Jian, originally she only wanted Su Jian to compensate one or two pieces of silver, but she should have the upper hand now, so she could ask for more. Moreover...... Now that she's done the beginning, she doesn't mind doing it to the end.

"Five taels of silver!"

The peasant woman's words fell, and there was a faint sound of gasping around.

Su Jian's eyebrows moved, and the mockery in his eyes was even worse: "Mr. Tie Niu, if this piece of wheat is harvested, how much can you exchange for money?" ”

Tie Niuyan glanced at the peasant woman reproachfully, and when his eyes swept over Ergou, there was disappointment in his eyes: "According to the best market, a pound of wheat is only eight cents, and this piece of wheat is ...... Even if it is a bumper harvest, it will only be a hundred catties, and the maximum amount of money is 800 wen. ”

"Yes, the wheat that is less than one tael of silver, and the second dog's family even asks for five taels of silver when they open their mouths."

"And...... It was also they who begged the general's wife to help with the wheat. ”

"Didn't you make up your mind to ask the general's wife to compensate from the beginning?"

"This is supposed to help, Mrs. can actually not compensate, but the Ergou family is really difficult, if they don't compensate at all, they may really be forced to die."

……

The sound of everyone's conversation came from Su Jian's ears one after another, and the coldness in her eyes dissipated slightly. OK...... Not all of them are blind and unreasonable, and they don't have the idea of who is weak and who is reasonable.

The peasant woman saw that everyone was talking about each word, and seeing that there were fewer and fewer people who comforted her, and she didn't get a response from Su Jian for a long time......

"Madame...... You're the General's wife! You don't care about a mere five taels of silver, right? ”
