Binding system, I can plant flowers and grass!

This water melon really looks similar to a watermelon.

Lu Qianqian squatted down and touched a round water melon. Its surface was smooth and felt very good.

Taking a basin, Lu Qianqian picked a water melon, put it in the basin, and cut it with a knife.

As soon as the knife touched the water melon, the whole melon broke open and a stream of clear water spread into the basin.

Lu Qianqian was still a little surprised. She didn't expect that the skin of the water melon was quite thin and it broke with a slight touch.

A water melon contains quite a lot of water. The water melon she chose filled half a basin with water.

Then two water melons can produce a large basin of water, which should be enough to help us get through the drought.

While Lu Qianqian was studying the water melon, the village chief's house was already full of villagers.

"Village head, in this weather, if we are not allowed to fetch water, what will we do with the crops in our fields?"

"Yes, one bucket of water a day is not enough for the family to eat and drink, let alone the crops in the fields."

Those families who followed Lu Qianqian are now extremely anxious. The things in the fields are all silver. If they die, they will be heartbroken.

"Village chief, you have to think of a solution. The rice in the fields is dying. There will be no harvest later. How are we going to survive?"

A large group of people crowded in the yard, chattering around the village chief.

Lu Yong is also very worried now. The weather has suddenly become hot and it is not raining. For farmers like them, this is a disaster.

"All quiet."

Lu Yong was also anxious. After all, as the village chief, he must be concerned about the villagers, but he was powerless to do anything about the natural disaster.

"From now on, every family will send one person to form a team to go to Sanshui River to transport water every day to ensure the crops in the fields are well-stocked."

Everyone is willing to listen to the village chief's words, but there are still some people with ulterior motives.

"Village Chief, are the Lu Gen family coming with us as well?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the yard fell silent. After all, everyone knew that Lu Qianqian had planted so many crops. If all the villagers were to transport water together, how much water would that require?

The villagers already didn't have enough water, and now they had to help Lu Qianqian's family, which made them somewhat reluctant.

Of course there are those who are unwilling, and of course there are those who are willing. Isn't this the time to build good relationships?

"We are all from the same village, so there is nothing wrong with carrying water together. At most, we just need to make a few more trips."

"Yes, it's just a few more buckets of water."

Those who are unwilling are left speechless by those who are willing. They want to object, but the number of those who are willing outnumbers those who are unwilling.

"The Lu Gen family is not included, but the Lu Zheng country is included."

Lu Yong told the whole story directly. Lu Qianqian had too many crops and it was not suitable for her to move with everyone. Besides, she had servants at home, so there was no need to worry.

Since the village chief said so, the villagers didn't say anything.

After everyone had left, Lu Yong went out to look for Lu Qianqian.

Just as I was walking on the way to Lu Qianqian's house, I happened to meet Li Mulu and a few others who were returning from Sanshui River.

They unloaded the carriage and loaded it onto a cart, on which was a large wooden barrel, which was obviously used to carry water.

"Is your young lady at home now?" Lu Yong asked.

Li Mu asked Lu Yi and Lu Si to drive back first, while he stayed to talk to the village chief.

"Hello, Village Chief. The young lady should be at home." Li Mu was not sure whether the young lady had gone out. When he came out, the young lady was still at home.

"Let's go there together."

Lu Qianqian had just finished planting the water melons and was thinking of going out to look for Li Mu and the others when she saw Li Mu and the village chief coming over together.

"Uncle village chief, why are you here?"

Lu Yong smiled and said to Lu Qianqian: "I see your family has started to carry water outside. Do you know about the drought?"

"Yeah!" Lu Qianqian nodded.

"Some people from the village came to me today. The well water in the village can no longer sustain normal water use. I thought of asking everyone to send one person to carry water back from Sanshui River. However, I didn't include your family. I thought you have enough people in your family, so there is no need for you to follow them."

After hearing what the village chief said, Lu Qianqian thought it made sense. She had grown a lot of crops here, and now she didn't need to transport water. With water melons, she had no shortage of water at all.

"I can handle it myself at home."

Lu Yong nodded, "That's it, I hope this weather won't last too long."

"As for the construction of the ancestral hall, it has been completed. I will send you the remaining silver."

Lu Qianqian shook her head. "Uncle Village Chief, there's no need for that. I said at the beginning that this sum of money would be given to the village. You can handle it yourself. You don't need to tell me."

"You're a good kid." Lu Yong sighed, "I heard that your father was unhappy with you recently because of Lu Yan's matter?"

Except for some young people, everyone in the village knew about Lu Yan's affairs.

When Lu Yan came back this time, everyone in the village could guess that she wanted to add to the family because she saw that Lu Gen's family had become rich.

But now the whole family is controlled by Lu Qianqian, so there is no chance for Lu Yan to gain any advantage.

Lu Yong and Old Man Lu are from the same clan, so that’s why he talked about this matter.

"Dad, there are some things that you haven't thought through clearly. I worked so hard to build this family. It's impossible for me to help an aunt I've never met for no reason."

Lu Yong felt helpless after hearing Lu Qianqian's direct words. He also knew Agen's personality. He was a person who cared a lot about face. He doted on Qianqian so much in the beginning, and it was Qianqian who made him look good.

But this time, regarding Lu Yan's matter, it was because Qianqian didn't give him face, and he couldn't afford to lose that face.

"Although this is your family's business, we are all from the same clan. If there is anything, tell me directly and I will ask the clan elders to intervene."

Qianqian girl’s current identity is not ordinary. People in the village do not understand the importance of the title of County Princess, but as the village chief, he still knows it.

Now the entire Qingshan County is Qianqian's fiefdom. The people on these fiefdoms are all under her name. If she is unhappy one day, she can take anyone's life.

Lu Qianqian didn't expect that the village chief would actually stand on her side. After all, the villagers were all headed by men, and for a girl, the only thing they had to do was to raise her until she could get married and then earn a dowry.

If there are some families that are good to their daughters, at most they would just find a good family for her, but they would not be able to be the head of the family like Lu Qianqian.

"Don't worry, Uncle Village Chief. I'm just a little disappointed. After all, my father is my biological father. I won't ignore him just for a small matter."
