After resigning, I want to go back to the village to grow sweet potatoes

"Wait, wait, you said that Zhuang Yan and Mei Hui are not related by blood?"

Huang Fan didn't take the binoculars that Lin Xi handed her, but grabbed Lin Xi's arm and hurriedly asked.

"You'd better take a look at Mei's small courtyard first, I'll make supper."

Lin Xi put the binoculars on the chair, broke Huang Fan's hand and returned to the house.

"What's so interesting about the small courtyard of the Mei family? Isn't that the old hag doing the ceremony? Why did you, little sister Xiaoxi, make it so mysterious on the first day of the new year? Zhuang Yan and Meihui are not related by blood? Is it possible? Why didn't you Say? You’re still crying and almost can’t think about it? If I hadn’t untied your knot in time, would you be able to become Sister Sweet Potato now?”

Huang Fan looked at Lin Xi's back and muttered for a while, but still picked up the binoculars and looked at the small courtyard of Mei's house.

"Ah? What kind of magical operation? How did they eat it?"

Through the binoculars, Huang Fan saw three large round tables set up on the ground in the backyard of Mei's small courtyard. Mei Xuexiang and those women were sitting around the big round tables and enjoying their meals.

"It's not afraid of freezing in such a cold day. I sit on the floor and eat. What are you eating? Tangyuan? It's glutinous rice balls! It's really good to eat a bowl of hot glutinous rice balls now. I wonder what kind of supper Sister Sweet Potato makes? My I'm really hungry."

Huang Fan put down the binoculars and returned to the house.

"Wow, you made glutinous rice balls too!"

Seeing that there were already two steaming bowls of steaming glutinous rice balls on the dining table, Huang Fan didn't wait for Lin Xi to reply, he took three steps at a time, went to pick up a spoon and started eating.

"Slow down, drink sugar tea first."

Lin Xi took out two cups of tea from the kitchen.

"Don't you drink sugar tea tomorrow morning?"

Huang Fan put down the spoon and took the teacup.

"It's almost dawn, you still want tomorrow?"

After Lin Xi put down his teacup, he turned and returned to the kitchen.

"Hey, come and drink sugar tea and eat glutinous rice balls too. Well, it's so sweet!"

Huang Fan took a sip of tea.

"I'm making rice cakes, and they'll be ready soon."

Lin Xi responded in the kitchen.

People in Shuizhou have a New Year's custom. On the first day of the first lunar month, they drink sugar tea when they wake up in the morning, and eat glutinous rice balls and rice cakes for breakfast.

Sugar tea means sweetness, glutinous rice balls mean reunion, and rice cakes mean life is growing steadily.

After a while, Lin Xi brought out two small bowls of brown sugar rice cakes from the kitchen, and sat down to eat with Huang Fan.

"Thank you Sister Sweet Potato for spending a warm and unforgettable New Year's Eve with me, and ushering in a sweet new year."

"This sugar tea is not for nothing, the mouth has become so sweet, do you really want to know why Brother Yan and Sister Hui are not related by blood?"

"Yeah, Sister Sweet Potato knows me too. Tell me quickly, how did you know that he is not related to her by blood? When did you know?"

"Well, I actually knew it a long time ago, but I just didn't think about it. I just saw Grandma Zhuang leading her beauties in the head of the ceremony, and I remembered that Brother Yan and Sister Hui are not related by blood."

"Hey, you're confusing me. Why did you know it all along and just didn't think about it?"

"Sister Fan, when Grandma Xi took me to live in Mei's small courtyard, didn't I accidentally discover a secret in the crack of the wall?"

"Well, you told me."

"Sister Fan, the small script on the piece of silk in the crack of the wall should be written by Mr. Mei, while the cursive script is written by Grandma Zhuang."

"How can you be sure that Mr. Mei and that old witch wrote it just by looking at it? Oh, Miss Mei wrote it?"

"I saw Mr. Mei and Grandma Zhuang's handwriting at Grandpa Zhuang's later, and I checked it out."

"I didn't expect our sister Xiaoxi to be so scheming. She is indeed our sister sweet potato."

"Sister Fan, don't you want to know what Mr. Mei wrote on the silk cloth? What did Grandma Zhuang write?"

"I was curious at first, but now I don't have the heart."

"Sister Fan, you are indeed better than me."

"Am I as good as you? You put people to death every minute without making a fuss, and the other party was still alive and kicking for most of the day."

"Sister Fan, you are very clever in using the trick of playing tricks."

"Sister Xiaoxi, you don't want to take the initiative to tell me, what can I do? Anyway, what is written on the silk cloth is that Zhuang Yan and Meihui are not related by blood."

"Sister Fan, when Mr. Mei wrote on the silk cloth, there were no brothers Yan and sister Hui."

"That means Miss Mei and Mei Zhengchun are not related by blood. She and him are not real siblings."

"Sister Fan, you are so smart. Mr. Mei only gave birth to a daughter, Grandma Zhuang. Mei Aodong and Mei Zhengchun are not Mr. Mei's own."

"That means that Mei Aodong and Mei Zhengchun are not descendants of the Lin family?"

"Sister Fan, why are you so smart? When Grandma Zhuang was born, Mr. Mei was already over half a hundred years old. Later, due to physical reasons, he would not have another child, but he wanted to have a son, so he privately begged Patriarch Lin to take him from Qingshuiwan. Mei Aodong is his son."

"This Mr. Mei is so pedantic. Boys and girls are not the same?"

"It's better if only Mei Aodong is alone, but seeing that Mei Aodong is so smart, Mr. Mei lamented that girls are not as good as boys, and at the same time, he begged Patriarch Lin to take a baby boy from Qingshui Bay, which is Mei Zhengchun."

"Is there a problem now? Mei Zhengchun is not fighting for the Mei family's spring in terms of fame and fame, but fighting for spring among thousands of flowers, and winning the two beauties of white jasmine and purple jasmine."

"Sister Fan, Mr. Mei, you will be angry if you do this, so grandma Zhuang, as the eldest lady of the Mei family, can you not be angry?"

"Of course, if it were me, it would be polite for such an old fool to call him 'Daddy'."

"The key is that Mr. Mei will still praise Grandma Xi in front of Grandma Zhuang, saying that if he can have such a wonderful woman, this life will be enough. What does he mean?"

"Even if my daughter is not outstanding, she is still your own flesh and blood. How can you compare yourself with others? People are more popular than others. Are there any perfect people in this world?"

"That's right. Besides, Grandma Zhuang is not bad. She looks like this now. I believe that when she was young, she was definitely not inferior to Grandma Xi in terms of appearance and knowledge."

"Oh, people, sometimes it's like this. The old ones think that their own children are not good at this or that, and they always feel that they are not as good as other people's children. And the young ones always complain that their parents are not good enough. Someone else's family has money and status, if my parents are a big boss or a big man, then I don't have to work hard for the rest of my life."

"Sister Fan, in this case, you should understand why Grandma Zhuang pretended to be a girl and went to Yu Deshui's house to save Grandma Xi, right? And why didn't she go back to Mei's courtyard?"

"Well, if I were Grandma Zhuang, I would rather jump into the river than go back to Namei's courtyard."

"So, Grandpa Zhuang hopes that we can understand Grandma Zhuang. Sister Fan, do you know? Grandma Zhuang is doing this now, in addition to the factors of Zhuang Ran and Mei Fangfei, there is another important factor is for the internal peace of Qingshui Bay."

"Does the internal tranquility you are talking about now have another meaning?"

"That's right, if Zhuang Ran and Mei Fangfei make a wrong decision about Qingshuiwan, Qingshuiwan will definitely no longer be peaceful. This is an external factor. But if the villagers of Qingshuiwan know that Mr. Mei's two sons were carried away from Qingshuiwan , can Qingshui Bay still be peaceful? This internal factor is more lethal than external factors, and it can directly lead to endless fights among the folks in Qingshui Bay."

"Indeed, once it is known that the two young masters of the Mei family were carried away from Qingshuiwan, the Lin family ancestral hall will be turned upside down, and everyone will scramble to prove that the two young masters of the Mei family are members of their own family."

"For the sake of fighting for the property of the Mei family, the villagers must turn their faces. If Zhuang Ran and Mei Fangfei fan the flames again at this time, then Qingshuiwan will definitely be doomed."

"Lin Xi, why do you think Zhuang Ran and Mei Fangfei fell in love with Qingshuiwan?"
