Spring scenery in the fields

Chapter 126 Shen Feiling Returns to the Village

Miao Zhaodi came over and looked at the rice seedlings of the two families: "Your rice seedlings are growing really well. The harvest this year will definitely be good."

The seedlings in her family grew worse and were much shorter.

Wang Erfeng squatted down with a smile: "I poured a lot of manure water before planting the seedlings. If they don't grow well, it will be a waste of my efforts."

Having more people has its advantages, and having fewer people has its advantages.

The more people eat, the more feces there will be.

She stood up and looked towards the paddy field: "Before planting rice, we have to weed the fields again."

"The weeds keep growing. I pull them out and they keep growing. I'm almost mad at me."

"My land is the same," Zhou Xiaoyu agreed. "We have to hoe it. Once the rice is planted, the grass will grow again."

“Don’t let the locusts come again this year.”

"Pfft, pfft, pfft." Wang Erfeng hurriedly stopped her from saying anything else, "Don't mention that. Everything will be fine this year."

"Yes, yes, yes, I was wrong. This year will definitely be a bumper year."

She slapped her mouth lightly and changed the subject.

The three were chatting when they caught a glimpse of a familiar figure entering the village.

Wang Erfeng asked: "Feiling, why did you come back today? Your sister's wedding is still a few days away, so it won't be too late to come back a few days later."

Shen Feiling carried the quilt in one hand and held the bundle in the other, and smiled faintly: "How can I not come back earlier for my eldest sister's wedding."

If someone from the neighboring village hadn't met him and told him about his eldest sister's marriage, he would have known nothing about it.

He understood what his parents meant. They wanted to call him back the day before his eldest sister got married.

He was very angry. Why didn't he tell him that his elder sister was engaged?

Shen Feiling didn't chat with them for long. After saying a few words, he said goodbye and went home.

When I arrived at the door of my house, I looked angrily at my father who was doing nothing and my mother who was making silk laces, sitting under the eaves.

"Dad, Mom, why didn't you tell me that my eldest sister was engaged? When were you going to tell me?"

"I am her biological brother! The whole village knows about it, even the people in the neighboring villages know about it, but I am the only one who is kept in the dark."

"What are you arguing about?" Shen Qing glanced at him unhappily. "Your elder sister's wedding is still a long way off. Why are you coming back so early?"

"You've finished the work in town. Have you received your wages?"

Wu Caifeng put down the silk thread in her hand and took the bundle and quilt. "Son, how come you came back just like that? Did the master pay you all your wages?"

"I was thinking of going to town to call you back in two days. Who told you that?"

"You are such a fool. Why did you come back so early? You might as well earn a few more days' wages in town."

Shen Feiling did not respond to the two of them, but glanced sideways at his sister who was standing at the door.

"My brother is back."

She raised her eyebrows, without a trace of displeasure on her face.

It was precisely because of this that he felt even more angry.

Ignoring the two people under the eaves, he walked up to Shen Ruoyan, grabbed her wrist, and hurried out the door.

"Look at him, look at him, he has no respect for his parents, he doesn't even respond when they talk to him, what a person he is."

Wu Caifeng defended her son: "He hasn't seen his sister for a long time and he missed her so much. They went out to talk. Why are you arguing with a child?"

"Young? He's fifteen this year, still young." Shen Qingyou stared, "I think he has grown wings and is increasingly unwilling to listen to me, his father."

As his son grew older, he became more and more opposed to him and stopped listening to what he said.

Here.

Shen Ruoyan was dragged by him to the foot of the mountain: "Brother, what's wrong with you? Do you have anything to say to me?"

Shen Feiling stopped and turned to look at her seriously: "Sister, tell me, did your parents force you to get married?"

He knew very well what kind of people his parents were.

"No, I wanted to do it myself."

"Did you really do this voluntarily? They didn't force you?"

He didn't believe it.

Shen Ruoyan smiled helplessly: "Brother, when has my sister ever lied to you? I did it voluntarily. It has nothing to do with my parents."

Shen Feiling continued to ask: "What does that person look like? What does he look like? What is his family like? How many people are there? Where does he live?"

He asked a series of questions.

"Brother, he is very good. You will see him on my wedding day."

Good or bad, she has no right to choose.

"What about the betrothal gift? How much did his family give?"

"Three two eight."

"How much did your mother bring back for you?"

Shen Ruoyan raised her head and looked at him: "Brother, why are you asking so many questions? Come on, let's go home. Your parents will be very happy to see you back."

"Sister, you haven't answered my question yet. How much dowry did your mother bring back for you?"

He knew from a young age that his parents didn't like his sister, but he liked his sister and wanted her to marry into a good family and live a good life.

Looking at her expression, I knew that her parents would not bring her a penny, and she might not even have a dowry.

"Sister, does your family have no dowry?"

She smiled bitterly and said, "Brother, you know what it's like at home."

She raised her hand and held his arm: "Promise your sister that you won't go home and quarrel with your parents. Your sister is getting married soon, and I don't want her to be unhappy."

She remembered that her brother was good to her, but there were some things he couldn't decide.

Shen Feiling suddenly felt very helpless. He couldn't help in any way.

"Brother, you are the best brother in my heart. Make money well and I will live my life well."

She stroked his head lovingly and took him home holding his wrist.

She reminded him again: "Brother, don't mention the betrothal gifts and dowry when you go back. Don't make our parents unhappy. Listen to your sister."

Shen Feiling pursed his lips and nodded after a long time.

Because he knew that going back and making a fuss would not change any results, and would only make his parents dislike his sister even more, suspecting that she had instigated him.

Ji Wenhe was at Lan Qiuhua's house, talking about purchasing goods.

"Import one thousand kilograms!" Shen Suya opened her mouth in shock, "How long will it take to sell it after we import it?"

There is no room for it in their storage room.

"It's almost the busy farming season, and my family is all back from town. We have three meals a day, so naturally we buy more."

"I plan to go to town once every two weeks in the future. It's quite troublesome to run back and forth every few days."

"Brother Shen said that the villagers of Baiyun Mountain hope that we can also sell goods in their village."

Although it is a bit far to their village, as long as I can make money, I don’t mind walking that extra distance.

"It's still early for the busy farming season. Oh, by the way," Lan Qiuhua asked, "Did Rongshan go to their village to hunt wolves? Did the villagers give him money?"

Ji Wenhe raised his eyes: "I forgot to ask."

Then he shook his head and said, "If you want to give it, give it. If you don't want to give it, forget it. We sold the wolf for some money anyway."

If someone goes back on their word and refuses to give it to you, you can't just snatch it away.
