The billionaire girl: Daddy and Mommy, love me again
Chapter 19 Kneeling on the Washboard
The fields were bustling with activity, and all the young and old men in the village went down to the fields.
Even Master Li, who was not good at farming, gave his three students a holiday and personally took his son to the fields to plant rice.
Old man Cheng and his sons reclaimed 50 mu of land, and the 13.5 kilograms of seeds they were given were only enough to grow seedlings on 30 mu of land.
Fortunately, Mr. Li’s family gave them ten kilograms of seeds.
There were only three people in Mr. Li's family and they could not afford much food, so he reclaimed five acres of land with the help of Old Man Cheng's family.
The Great Yan Dynasty stipulated that the first three years of land reclamation would be exempt from taxes, so the output of five acres of land was enough for their family to eat for a year, with a lot left over.
Seeing that the seedlings planted a few days ago had roots that were visibly stable and growing rapidly, the young and old were all smiling and full of energy.
"Grandpa, Dad, Uncle, come home for dinner!"
"It's time to eat. Grandma asked us to call everyone back to eat!"
"Everyone, come to our house for dinner!"
.........
A group of little radish heads were flying around the fields like little bees, happily calling the busy people to go home for dinner.
"I heard you, you little bastards, hurry back before you get covered in mud or you'll get beaten!"
A man responded loudly.
"Got it, Dad. I'm telling you quietly. Don't make Mom angry today. Be careful and kneel on the washboard."
The whisper was so loud that even Cheng Ergou, who was several fields away, could hear it.
"Brother Chunsheng, I didn't expect you to be henpecked, hahahaha...be careful or you might kneel on the washboard..."
“Hahahaha, hahahaha…!”
"Hahaha!"
Everyone was laughing so hard that they were rolling on the ground, making the honest and simple-minded Cheng Chunsheng blush so much that he wanted to find a hole to crawl into.
"What are you talking about, little brat? Who is kneeling on the washboard? Your father always has the final say in front of your mother. If I say go east, she dare not go west."
"I think it was your sister-in-law who asked you to wash the dishes. You don't dare to sweep the floor! Hahahahahaha...!"
"If you don't listen, you will kneel on the washboard! Hahahaha............!"
Cheng Ergou continued to tease.
"Uncle Ergou, you can still laugh. You will have to kneel on the washboard when you go back. I saw Aunt Lin crying too."
When everyone heard that Lin was crying, they stopped joking.
"Xiao Hu, who did you say was crying?"
"My mother, Aunt Lin, Grandma Xie, Grandma Zheng, Grandma Xiao, Aunt Liu, Aunt Wang, Aunt Zhou, Sister Chen... everyone cried!"
When everyone heard this, they were shocked. What a big thing had happened. They quickly dropped the seedlings and crawled out of the field, running towards the cave.
A group of people ran back to their own caves in a panic. After searching for a while but couldn't find their wives, they remembered that today was their daughter's wedding day, and the women should help in Old Man Cheng's cave, so they ran to Old Man Cheng's cave in a hurry.
When they gasped and saw their wives busying around the stove, chatting and laughing, they felt like they had been fooled.
They all turned around and glared at the group of little guys.
"How dare you, you little brats, play tricks on us!"
The little kids were trembling with fear at the wolf-like looks from the crowd.
"I.....we didn't lie to you, mom just cried!"
"Yes, my mother... cried too!"
"And my mother, my grandmother, and my aunt all cried!"
"And my grandma, all the women in our family cried!"
.........
When they heard someone speak, the other children puffed out their chests to testify.
Cheng Jinwen glanced at the crowd and saw the old patriarch who was holding his sister and making her laugh.
"Grandpa, uncles, if you don't believe me, you can go ask our ancestor. He also saw my mother and the others crying."
"Yes, yes, go ask the ancestor!"
........
Everyone looked at each other, and finally Cheng Dafu and Old Man Cheng, the host, looked at each other, then took the lead and walked towards the old patriarch.
The old patriarch was lovingly teasing the little baby in his arms. Li put on the silver bracelet given by the old patriarch on the little baby. There were two small bells on the bracelet. As long as the little hand moved, the small bells would "ding ding dang dang" and make a pleasant sound.
Cheng Xingwan liked listening to this voice very much. She waved her little hands, pulled the old patriarch's long white beard, and babbled words of thanks. She was so cute that the old man was so happy that he wanted to give her his heart.
Old man Cheng's brother, who had just walked over, was fascinated by the happy scene of the old and the young. He stood there in a daze, with an auntie smile on his face.
It was Cheng Xingwan who noticed them first. He was dancing and shouting "ah ah ah oh" and leaning his little body towards his grandfather.
Children grow up quickly. In a month, the little girl has completely grown up. In addition, she takes a bath in the spiritual spring water and drinks milk every day. Not only is her skin as white and delicate as mutton-fat jade, but she is also much stronger and her vision is gradually clearer.
"Oh, grandpa's sweet baby, you miss grandpa. Wait, grandpa will come and hug you after I change my clothes."
After saying this, he put the important matters aside and hurriedly changed his clothes.
"My dear, do you know who I am? Call me grandpa!"
As the village chief, Cheng Dafu was serious and stern in order to make himself look dignified. As time went by, everyone saw the village chief as serious and cold. In addition, he was tall, so the children were afraid of him and dared not get close to him.
Little Tuanzi was not afraid of him, and the great-grandfather in front of her always had a kind face and spoke softly.
She reached out and grabbed one of Cheng Dafu's fingers, and turned into a chatterbox. Her sweet, baby voice made Cheng Dafu intoxicated, as if he had drunk fine wine.
"You're already a grandfather, but you're still like that brat, all dirty and filthy. You don't even clean yourself up before trying to get in front of my little grandson."
The old patriarch was very jealous when he saw that the little darling had rebelled against them as soon as they came back, and he found his cheerful nephew extremely annoying.
Feeling the old patriarch's resentment, Cheng Dafu finally remembered the purpose of his visit.
He pulled a chair and sat down, glanced at his wife implicitly, then turned to look at the old patriarch and asked.
"Sixth uncle, I heard from the children that Xie and the others were crying just now. Is this true?"
"Have you finished your work in the fields?"
The old patriarch did not answer his question directly, but asked about farming.
"Most families in the village can finish their work today, except for the third family who still has 50 mu of land, which may take a few more days."
"After you finish your own work, you can help each other. The seedlings grow fast. If you delay for too long, it will affect the harvest!"
"That's right, Uncle Six, don't worry. We would have gone to help even if you didn't ask. Besides, we are brothers."
"You are a capable person. Chengjia Village will get better and better under your leadership."
"With Uncle Six's words, I dare to go for it and I will definitely live up to everyone's expectations of me."
Cheng Dafu was very excited and full of energy after receiving the recognition from the old patriarch.
"After we finish the work in the fields, let's find some time to have the young people in the village go and see what's going on down the mountain."
