Lin San was taken away by Gu Pingyu overnight, and the speed that caught him off guard was even unexpected.

I don't know what Lin San revealed to him to make Gu Pingyu so angry, and Mei You followed out as soon as she heard it.

At this time, Plum Berry couldn't ask anything she wanted to ask, and when she received the news, she happened to stare at the lock with big eyes.

"You're really not going to tell me, are you? Your third brother has been taken away, I guess it has something to do with this news~"

"What about you, Sanya? Didn't you say you were going to the south to do long-term work? Why is it here. ”

The lock pursed his lips and was still reluctant to answer, and by the way, he also asked why the two of them were here.

Now that they have any more lies, I'm afraid they won't be able to do it.

Mei Berry directly admitted: "Because my father is not the son of Old Man Mei, the third uncle is the same." So I left, what's the problem? ”

"Ah, is that so?"

The lock was shocked to hear Plum Berry confess like this.

"Or else? Have you ever seen someone who has an eccentric eye that cares about life and death? Besides, do you think our family looks like the old man Mei? ”

was asked by Mei Berry, and the lock fox looked at Mei Youqian suspiciously.

Not to mention, Mei Berry's father and Old Man Mei are not like each other.

"But when you say that, what happened to Old Man Mei and their house after the flood?"

"I don't know." The lock shook his head, he didn't know about the affairs of the old Mei family, "Before, your grandfather, ah, Grandpa Mei, they took his youngest son and said that they were going to the county to meet some future in-laws, and then it rained and flooded or something......"

The lock didn't know much about the affairs of Lao Mei's family, but Mei Youqian heard that Meiyang could still find a family in the county, and was surprised: "My God, whose girl is blind?" ”

Lock: "......"

Mei Berry still remembers the message that their family sent to Old Man Mei before, so Old Man Mei and they can still try to find a girl from the county family in Meiyang.

Yes!

Sure enough, it's biological.

Later, Mei Berry didn't want to ask Lin San about the lock, so Mei Youqian and his wife arranged the lock to rest in a room in the front yard.

Wei Meili looked at the bed asleep or frowning, tightly holding the quilt-like lock, and felt a lot of pain in her heart.

Thinking of Widow Chen's hearty smile, Wei Meili sighed.

The strong woman who has been supporting the family after her husband died, honoring her mother-in-law and raising children, still didn't survive in the end.

Mei Berry didn't sleep until later, and went out of the house to find out about Da Chen and Cheng Zhu, and everyone else in the Zhuangzi was busy.

At night, I went door to door boiling water to bring those outsiders back and wash them.

Dirty clothes were really unsightly, and all of them were incinerated.

Plum Berry bought a lot of fabrics from Jiubaoxuan before, and there were many cheapest linen cloths, which could be cut temporarily for people to wear.

When these people were all washed, not to mention plum berries, even Xie Dachen was quite surprised.

"There are a lot of men, and all of them are young."

If the original Grange was full of old and young women and children, then now there are many young men who have come back with Lin San.

However, it is probably due to long-term malnutrition, and they are all yellow and thin, and if they have bad intentions, they will not be able to set off the storm for a while.

"The labor force for farming is there~"

When Mei Berry reconciled Da Chen to say this, the other party also smiled when he heard it.

That's what he thinks, too.

"The work in Zhuangzi is the lack of people, and coming to these solves the urgent need, and the owner can still accept them.

There are also many empty houses in Zhuangzi, and we can all arrange them. ”

"Well, you can arrange it. If you need anything, you can tell me, and I'll find a way to bring it to you when I get back. ”

Originally, they were talking about things in Zhuangzi for a good night, but in the second half of the night, they were reconciled by Meiberry and Da Chen didn't sleep, and these people were already dawning.

After calling Xie Da Chen to go back and have breakfast together, the two went to the field to talk about the rest of the matter.

About cotton, about watermelon and peppers.

"These two seeds were exchanged between me and some merchants in the city this time. I heard that it is from the Western Regions, and there are planting methods and fruits recorded in sheepskin. ”

"What does the owner mean that after the cotton is planted, the remaining fields can be planted with these two crops, what do these two do?"

"This cold melon seed turns out to be as big as a winter melon, with enough water, and the melon pulp inside is sweet. The melon pulp can be used as a fruit, and the melon skin can be used to make vegetables, or fed to cattle and sheep.

Not...... It's okay to feed the chickens, I saw that there were no chickens in the village, so I'll get some chickens after a while.

The melon can be eaten by itself or sold, but this melon cannot be bumped and is not easy to preserve. You can take it and send it to the military camp across the lake, after all, our grange is next to them, and it's okay to have a good relationship~"

Referring to the military camp opposite, Xie Dachen also smiled faintly, and was noncommittal about Mei Berry's remarks about building a good relationship.

"And how is this chili pepper eaten?"

"It has many functions, it can be used as a dish or as a seasoning. The taste is spicy, two points stronger than dogwood, and eating it in winter is like drinking spirits, which can warm up the body. ”

"That's good!"

I heard that eating it in winter can warm up your body, and Xie Dachen is also happy. Yandi is bitterly cold, and it is normal to freeze to death if you don't pay attention.

And I don't need a lot of plum berries to eat.

"This is easy to keep when it is dried, and it is considered a purchase to sell it."

After Mei Berry finished speaking, Xie Da Chen also talked in detail about the next plan in Zhuangzi with Mei Berry.

Cultivate and repair the inside of the Zhuangzi, and repair the outermost fort used to defend against foreign enemies.

There must be no more incidents of being picked up in the dog hole last night.

Plum Berry just smiled faintly at this matter, is it abnormal how many dog holes there are these years?

But Xie Dachen is very serious.

The crop of plum berries is cotton alone, which is very important, otherwise Xie Changchen would not have sent them over, what if someone really took advantage of it?

The two seeds that came out of the plum berries may not be as important as cotton now, but they are very useful for improving life.

"There is still a lot of wasteland in Zhuangzi, according to what the owner said, these three seeds are not grain seeds, can you trouble the owner to prepare some seeds such as millet and beans, and reclaim some fields for planting some rations."

"Okay, don't worry, I'll have them for you. Oh, and one more thing. ”

Mei Shi mentioned the matter of wool thread, which was an extra job that Mei Berry found for some old and weak women and children in Zhuangzi.

"When the weather is hot, I will ask my mother and them to come and teach them when the farm is not working."

Xie Dachen was also surprised when he heard this, and when he looked at the plum berry again, his eyes were full of respect.

He has also heard of some of Jiubaoxuan's business in the past two years, and what he heard is related to the person in front of him.

But the impression given to him by Meiberry is not that kind of arrogance and arrogance, but from the perspective of the people at the bottom, he does his best to arrange everyone.

Not only did she simply distribute food, but she also did not let go of her labor and craftsmanship.

In this regard, his character is very worthy of his admiration.

When Xie Dachen told Xie Yi about Mei Berry's arrangements and words, the young man who came with a skill in making tools couldn't help but sigh after understanding everything:

"Xie Lao has great grace to our family, Yu Changchen, Yu Gu's family and even the people of Li in the world!"

Xie Lao: My descendants have made great contributions!
