125 Come to Eat
Actually, it was not only the wild fruit vines that had grown. Many other crops had also grown drastically.
There were three or four stalks of millet in the vige chief’s house, but they actually grew to the height of half a person. Logically speaking, they should only be small seedlings at this time.
“A miracle!”
“This is definitely divine rain!”
Some people did not believe it and ran out of the vige to take a look, but they realized that there were also a few wild fruit vines that looked different from those in the forest.
“How strange. How did this happen?”
Someone immediately said, “I’ll go to the other viges to see if there’s such a change.”
Old Master Hu stomped his walking stick lightly on the ground.
“Stop right there.”
The viger was a little puzzled. “Old Master, what’s wrong?”
“What will you say if you go to other viges and discover that their crops have also changed? If there’s no such change, what will you say?” Old Master Hu’s tone was deep as his gaze gradually moved from the viger to the others. “And you, think about it. If this only happens in our vige, what will you say to the people from the other viges?”
Only then did the vigers realize that they had to face this problem before they could recover from their excitement.
It would be best if other viges experienced the same thing too. But what if the other viges didn’t have it?
Moreover, they vaguely felt that the other viges definitely wouldn’t have the same phenomenon. Looking at their own vige. Not every family experienced the changes too.
For example, the crops in Third Aunt Hu’snd had not changed at all. Third Aunt Hu was still angry.
“Then what should we do?”
“Perhaps Bodhisattva saw that our vige was too poor and specially blessed us.”
Someone snorted and dampened everyone’s spirits. “Come on, our vige has been poor for so many years, but I’ve never seen any Bodhisattva pity us.”
“Perhaps he was passing by...”
The vigers could not think of a reason and could only think of all kinds of strange forces.
Moreover, with Old Master Hu’s reminder, they had no intention of going to other viges.
Unless there was such a thing in other viges and they mentioned it first.
After what happened in Shanyang Vige, the people of Hu Family Vige no longer trusted the other viges that much.
As divine rain was too sensational a matter, the Wang family did not seem so outstanding.
This was especially true for the Wang Family’s mountainousnd. It could be said that the divine rain had provided the most nourishments to thatnd. However, those were wild fruits that looked good but were useless. They did not seem to be as good as grain crops.
When Little Ah Yu came out and saw that the ground was already filled with wild fruit vines, her eyes lit up.
Wow, Grandma really had a way!
Now, no one knew that these wild fruit vines were actually nted by Little Ah Yu!
Meatball was also extremely impressed. It knew that Old Madam Wang and Liu Shi had gone out.
When it rained at night, it was still worried that something would happen to the two of them. It deliberately used its energy to follow the two of them, afraid that no one would know if they fell.
[Your grandmother and mother are both good people. You have to treat them well.]
Meatball took the opportunity to educate Little Ah Yu about the concept of gratitude so that she would understand the efforts of her family.
“Yes, yes, yes. Ah Yu will treat Mother and Grandma well.”
Little Ah Yu liked her mother and grandmother very much.
Now, Little Ah Yu went to her brothers and asked happily, “Are we going to sell these fruits?”
Wang Ling and Wang Qng took advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention and secretly pulled out two fruits. They ate them. They were really sweet!
And it was even better than directly eating candy.
“Can’t we eat it ourselves?” Wang Ling patted his stomach. “If I can eat this fruit everyday, I’ll eat one meal a day.”
During the farming season, farmers usually only ate two meals a day, one in the morning and one in the evening.
Now, the farming work is over. Everyone wanted to continue eating two meals a day, but Old Madam Wang still asked the women to cook three meals. It was mainly because the children at home had begun to learn martial arts and their bodies could not be undernourished.
Wang Qng also said, “I... I can eat one meal every two days!”
He could directly eat such sweet fruits until he was full!
In the past, the fruits were only the size of a thumb. Now that the fruit was muchrger, it was beautiful and delicious. He felt that it was much better than coarse rice.
Moreover, there was usually very little coarse rice. It was basically vegetables and porridge. The rice grains in the bowl could even be counted clearly. Instead, the amount of vegetables was enough to fill their bowls.
The vegetables nted at home had yet to fully grow, so the vegetable porridge now was filled with wild vegetables.
Most of the wild vegetables were bitter and did not taste good.
Old Madam Wang waved her hand. “Thisnd is yours. You can decide how to deal with it. We don’t care.”
This was also what Old Madam Wang had agreed on back then. It was impossible for her to say that she would take over the field now that the situation was different.
Even if Old Madam Wang knew why thesends had changed.
The other children in the vige were extremely envious. The Wang family was really good to their children!
They also wanted to be the grandson of the Wang Family’s grandmother.
With so many fruits, they looked very delicious. There was no need to work so hard to scavenge and roast bugs to eat.
Old Master Hu saw that the masses were still discussing the matters in the fields. Everyone’s knowledge was limited, and they could not think of much. In the end, they had to let hime up with ideas.
...
Old Master Hu simply called Wang Eng over and said to him, “Eng, tell me, what should we do in this situation?”
In the past few days, Old Master Hu had begun to arrange for the children in the vige to learn reading and writing. Sometimes, he would teach them about history and some principles.
Most of the children could not stand it anymore. Only Wang Eng liked to listen the most. Every time, he would listen very excitedly, so Old Master Hu also liked Wang Eng very much.
Wang Eng thought for a moment and said, “With these changes, it means that the fortune of our vige has improved. Everyone can do things the same way as before. There’s no need to specially adjust it.”
The main thing was that although these changes looked shocking, the quantity was not much.
After all, the water that Old Madam Wang had mixed had already been diluted. Coupled with the rain, the surrounding soil was also stained.
Gradually, the waterednd would be better.
However, this change would not be obvious for the time being.
Someone asked, “Then are we going to leave it alone?”
“We can observe and see if thosends will change in the future.” Wang Eng could not think of anything else.
However, the others could not think of a good solution.
...
Other than the grandchildren of the Wang Family, who were discussing how to use thatnd, they wanted to do business!
In the end, everyone could only follow Wang Eng’s instructions and continue observing for the time being.
When everyone dispersed, Old Madam Wang saw Qin Huai outside the crowd and waved at him.
“Child,e here.”
Qin Huai was quite respectful to Old Madam Wang.
He felt that although Old Madam Wang’s actions sometimes seemed a little rude, she was an intelligent person. At least from his gaze, Old Madam Wang was the backbone of the Wang family.
“Grandma, you called me?” Qin Huai walked over and asked.
“Good child,e to our house for lunch today.” Old Madam Wang smiled.
Little Ah Yu suddenly remembered that Big Brother Ah You’s birthday had arrived. It seemed to be yesterday!
However, it had been raining heavily for the past two days and no one had gone out. Grandma and the others had forgotten about it, and so had she!
Oh no, it’s bad!
Her little gift had yet to be given out!
“Big Brother Ah You,e to our house for dinner. Second Auntie is cooking today. The food she cooks is delicious!”
Liu Shi said faintly from behind, “Does Mother’s cooking not taste good?”
