Some people in the village tried to curry favor with Liu and gave her gifts, but Liu accepted all of them.

Sun Cuicui had seen it with her own eyes, and she didn't expect Liu to be such a person.

It would be fine if Mo Fusheng passed the examination, but if he failed, he would be drowned in the spit of the villagers.

When such a scene appeared in her mind, Sun Cuicui laughed: "Do you think I am too concerned about other people's problems? Whether Mo Fusheng passes the exam has nothing to do with me. I just want Chun Ge and Nian Ge to pass the exam!"

"When the baby in my belly comes out, they can play with Chun Ge and the others!"

Jiang Tang would never ask about the affairs of the village. Her principle was that if the villagers didn't bother her, she wouldn't bother the villagers.

The book says that Liu was a narrow-minded person, and because of her acceptance of gifts, she really caused a lot of trouble for Mo Fusheng in the future.

Old Man Mo has been stingy all his life, and his eldest son has inherited all his traits.

They will only consider money when their lives are at stake.

"Mo Fusheng is a good student. If nothing goes wrong, he should be able to pass the exam and become a Tongsheng!"

Jiang Tang warned Sun Cuicui: "The Mo family originally had a problem with you because our two families were close. When you see her, stay away from them. I'm afraid they will hurt your child!"

"I remember everything. Baofeng said that he will start harvesting crops in the next two days and will not do business. You can take a break for two days!"

Jiang Tang calculated and it turned out to be true.

It's already September, and the corn in the fields can be harvested.

Since Sun Cuicui couldn't do it, Jiang Tang helped Zhou Baofeng and Old Wang to harvest corn.

The corn here is still an old variety. I don’t know if it’s a problem with the variety or a problem with water shortage, but the yield is really low.

Jiang Tang estimated that one acre of land would yield at most 500 to 600 kilograms.

Many corn cobs only have a few sparse corns on them. If this happened in modern times, people would definitely suspect that there was a problem with the seeds.

Old Mrs. Wang was still grinning from ear to ear: "This year, God has been kind to us. The crops have grown well, and we won't have to starve this winter!"

Jiang Tang asked curiously: "Grandma, don't we have to pay taxes here?"

"Of course we shouldn't pay. Every household pays per capita. If the harvest is good that year, we pay more. If the harvest is bad, we pay less!"

It seems that the emperor here is more humane.

The Zhou family has ten acres of land passed down from generation to generation. This year, six acres of the land are planted with wheat and corn, and the remaining four acres are planted with rice.

The rice is still somewhat green these past two days, and just like in the past life, it will not turn completely yellow until October.

With the help of a horse-drawn carriage and the three experienced laborers, Jiang Tang, Chun Ge and Nian Ge, the Zhou family harvested all the corn in the field in just five days.

The Zhou family’s yard was filled with bright orange corn.

Jiang Tang, Old Wang and Sun Cuicui were peeling corn husks at home, while Zhou Baofeng went to the cornfield alone to cut corn stalks.

While he was peeling the skin, Gu Chunhua came to the door.

"Jiang Tang, I knew you were here!"

Gu Chunhua came in with a basket of potatoes: "Jiang Tang, I won't beat around the bush with you. I don't know what happened to my cow these past few days. It's been sick!"

"The doctor in town prescribed some medicine but it didn't work. I have corn in my field and it's all gone. I came to ask if you can lend me your carriage?"

"Of course!"

Jiang Tang stood up and said, "Brother Zhou has pulled the carriage to the field. I will go to the field to find Brother Zhou. Just tell him!"

"Then I won't be polite to you. Here is a basket of potatoes for you to take back and eat!"

Gu Chunhua stuffed the basket of vegetables into Jiang Tang's hands and left in a hurry.

It was too late for Jiang Tang to call for help.

"Chunhua is like this. If she gives you something, you just take it back and eat it. It's just some potatoes anyway, and she has a lot of them at home!" said Old Mrs. Wang.

Jiang Tang put the vegetable basket aside and sat down to continue peeling corn husks.

Sun Cuicui reminded him: "Jiang Tang, I guess when the villagers see Sister Chunhua lend you the carriage, other people will come to borrow it too, so you should be prepared!"

Jiang Tang was stunned. She had never thought of this before.

She nodded, thinking about the nightmare she had last night.

"Grandma, I dreamt yesterday that Mr. Mo died. He looked so real in the dream, as if he was still alive. Do you think he is not dead?"

Compared to the villagers borrowing the carriage, Jiang Tang felt that it was more terrifying that Mo Laosi was still alive.

"He's your man!" Old Wang didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "He's dead, what's there to be afraid of!"

Jiang Tang slapped his thighs, stood up and ran out: "Grandma, I remembered something important, I'm going to town!"

"Why is this girl so impetuous?" Old Mrs. Wang muttered.

Sun Cuicui thought that the thing that could make Jiang Tang so anxious must be related to Baiyu Tower or Miss Gu.

Jiang Tang came out and ran straight to the field to find Zhou Baofeng, just in time to see Gu Chunhua coming out of the field leading a horse-drawn carriage.

"Sister-in-law, I have to go to town urgently. It will take at most half an hour to go back and forth. I will give you the carriage when I come back!"

Jiang Tang felt embarrassed. She had just promised Gu Chunhua, but now there was another urgent matter.

Fortunately, Gu Chunhua is not a fussy person.

She handed the reins to Jiang Tang and reminded him, "Go slowly on the way, don't rush back!"

Jiang Tang took the reins and hurried to the town, then went straight to the funeral clothing store.

During non-holiday seasons, the funeral clothing store's business is very slow.

Often there is not a single customer in a day.

When Jiang Tang arrived, the shopkeeper was dozing off at the door.

Jiang Tang called him twice before the other person woke up yawning.

"Girl, what do you want?"

Jiang Tang said immediately: "Ten paper figures, male and female pairs, and one older one to be the housekeeper!"

"Give me a set of this house and the furniture in it!"

Jiang Tang pointed at the cabinet on the wall and said, "I don't want this, this, and this. Give me one of each of the remaining ones!"

The shopkeeper suddenly lost his sleepiness, asked Jiang Tang to sit down and wait, and served Jiang Tang tea.

This girl is a sucker. If I sell her alone, I won’t be able to open the store this month.

The shopkeeper took it and took it with a smile.

Soon, the counter and the floor were filled with goods.

Seeing that Jiang Tang had no intention of stopping, the shopkeeper asked curiously, "Miss, was your whole family killed?"

After saying that, he swallowed.

If this is the case, this girl is too miserable.

She is the only one left in the family, so it’s better for him to make less dirty money.

Jiang Tang cried out and shook her head: "Only my man died!"

"Just died?"

"He's been dead for years!"

"You're all dead, why are you still buying so many things? Even though these things don't cost much, wouldn't it be nice to save the money and spend it on yourself?"

Jiang Tang was surprised. You know, people in ancient times attached great importance to filial piety, and few people would say such words.
