Nongmen Space: Farming lady is not easy to mess with

Chapter 51 Why Did He Take a Rest
"Eh? When did a pergola be built here?"

Zhu Yu swung the bag of food stamps and curiously looked up and down the newly built shed, leaned over to the side of Populus euphratica, "Isn't it because you're afraid of the sun? Tsk tsk tsk, you're so delicate."

Populus euphratica put down the centipede file in his hand, looked up at Zhu Yu with a teasing face, lowered his head, picked up a handful of horsetail grass next to him, and continued to polish the small wooden stick in his hand.

The veins on his forehead twitched.

"I got it right~"

Zhu Yu proudly opened the stool and sat down, picked up the bamboo tube on the table and took a sip, and saw that he was not planing wood today, but a round wooden stick about eight inches thick, the thickness of his index finger.

"What is this? Long chopsticks for frying Sazi?"

Zhu Yu put down the bamboo cup and took out an unpolished wooden stick from the hole in the table, turned it around but didn't see any use.

Populus euphratica paused with its slender fingers, glanced at Zhu Yu who was muttering beside him from the corner of the eye, and twitched the corners of his mouth.

"You think so."

"Ah... I really want to celebrate the Chinese New Year... I can eat fried dumplings during the Chinese New Year..."

Zhu Yu sighed and lay on the table, poking the wooden stick back and forth and rolling around, staring at the sun rising from the east mountain.

"When will it rain... No! It can't rain so soon. Everyone is clearing up wasteland and sifting sand and gravel. It's hard to work when it rains."

The daily life in the village has been on the right track. Except for a few team leaders, other villagers have been arranged to open up wasteland.

There is a lot of gravel in the wasteland, and it is impossible to grow rice without sifting.

The villagers come back every day covered in dirt from head to toe, but with smiles on their faces.

When the land is finished, the mud in the river and the upper river will be solid fields that can be used to grow crops.

"Do you like farming?"

"Look at what you're talking about!" Zhu Yu straightened up immediately, grabbed a handful of horsetail grass and held it up in the air, full of vigor, "I'm a good farmer in our village!"

Thinking that there was no land to plant, he retracted his raised arm and reluctantly polished the round wooden stick.

"You've never planted the land, you don't know how happy it is to see the crops you planted with your own hands produce grain and pile up at home!"

He sighed again as he spoke, "Let's just be happy for a few days, and I'm about to move it to someone else."

Suddenly thought of something, he patted the table, and smiled, "It's different this time, all the food I grow is my own! No need to pay rent, and no official sent to collect food for three years! Just thinking about it makes me happy, hehe..."

The two were busy with the work at hand, chatting, and most of the time, Zhu Yu was there alone, reminiscing about the big and small things about her farming in the past.

Populus euphratica did not respond with a few words.

Zhu Yu approached Populus euphratica's ear, and whispered mysteriously, "Have you noticed that some people are strange?"

The crisp voice accompanied by the warm breath lingered in the ears, Populus euphratica's drooping eyelashes fluttered, and a blush hit the upper ears.

"Which people?"

The sleeves were pulled a few times, and she had to raise her head to look in the direction she pointed.

Two men were lazily walking towards the river with baskets in their hands, and a farmer next to him was carrying a load full of bamboo baskets and fought them.

"Look, the two of them, oh, there are a few over there. Don't you think these people are different from others?" Zhu Yu repeatedly clicked on several people.

Hu Yang raised his eyebrows, looked at her puzzled side face, and the corner of his mouth curled up with interest, "Why is it different?"

Zhu Yu looked away, frowned and looked at him suspiciously, "They are all strong laborers, but they only do five food stamps a day. Cuiping and the others exchange more food stamps than they do."

As he spoke, he scratched his face in puzzlement, "I said so, can you understand?"

"Make enough rations for one day every day and never do more." Hu Yang looked at her suddenly enlightened expression with his face propped sideways, and chuckled, "What else?"

"Ah? Anything else?"

"Didn't I remind you?"

"No."

Hu Yang's eyes fell on the round wooden stick that Zhu Yu was holding, his eyes darkened, "Ration for one person."

Zhu Yu was stunned by one sentence, "Now that you said that, I remembered, they are all..."

"Hu Yang, you go to rest, just leave Zhu Yu here alone."

Shu Yingtong hugged Yuan Bao who was watching the excitement and saw Yuan Bao stop in front of the table when he was asleep, and gave an order heavily.

"it is good."

"Eh? Why does he have to rest, he's not sick!"

Zhu Yu glared at Populus euphratica who was obediently packing up the toolbox, and looked up at Shu Yingtong's calm face with her mouth pouted and aggrieved.

"Then leave me here alone, how boring I am..."

Although this piece of wood doesn't like to chat, but sometimes she would say a few words. After he left, no one chatted with her at all...

Shu Yingtong said in a deep voice: "Sometimes you are busy." He hurried away with Yuan Bao in his arms.

"Are you really going..." Zhu Yu lay on the table and looked at Populus euphratica pitifully.

"Yeah." Hu Yang took the wooden stick from her hand and put it into the toolbox, pursing his lips and chuckling, "Be good, I'll leave this to you."

After speaking, he turned his head and glanced at the river, straightened his face, put on the toolbox and went back to the village.

"What the hell is it to be good, as if I'm causing trouble every day..."

Zhu Yu rolled her eyes angrily, grabbed the bamboo tube and poured water into her mouth.

midnight.

A skinny figure cat walked towards a small slope, and a very low voice came.

"Liu son, what's the situation over there?"

"As big brother expected, they only sent six people to guard the granary." The voice of the six sons trembled.

"What the hell are you shaking!"

"I'm afraid, they have big knives..." Not only trembling, but also seemed to be holding back pain.

"You bastard! They only have a few knives, don't we have any! A group of mud-legged knives are as good as ours?"

"I... my stomach hurts... I want to relieve myself..."

There was a slap, and the scolding was extremely disgusting, "Get out! There's too much shit on the lazy donkey!"

"Thank you brother, I'm going to get out, I'm going to get out..."

The six sons seemed to be pardoned, covered their faces and ran towards the grassland without looking back. While running, they looked back at the village and quickened their pace.

"Brother, I'm afraid this coward is going to run away."

"I've never seen blood, so don't worry about him. I'm tired of eating wild vegetables boiled with no salt for five or six days! Brothers, let's go and move the food!"

A slender single-edged long knife was held in the air, and the moonlight shone coldly on the knife.

Twenty or thirty figures lying on the ground immediately got up and silently raised the long knives in their hands.

A group of people rushed to the outskirts of the village gathering place, and rushed to the granary in a square formation. With an order, the team dispersed and went straight to the granary in an encircling formation.

"Brother, why is the granary unguarded!"

"Not good! It's a hit!"

As soon as the words fell, the sound of orderly footsteps came from all directions, and more than a dozen torches illuminated the group of people in all directions.

"What are you panicking!" The bearded leader shouted loudly, raised his hand to calm them down, and stood calmly on the spot looking at the crowd that was coming.

"It's you bastards, isn't it! It makes my aunt sleepless and sleepless at night!"

With a shout, an angry red figure with his hips stepped out of the crowd.

"You drank two big bowls of porridge for dinner." The cool and deep female voice answered coldly.

A young woman in a sky blue dress walked forward slowly from the crowd, stood beside the girl in red with her hands behind her back, and glanced sharply at him.
