Spatial Peasant Girl: These Mad Darlings Are Delicate and Gullible

Seeing the smoke that suddenly appeared in front of Mrs. Ning, Xiaoxiao narrowed her eyes and suddenly appeared from the space with a slingshot and raised her hand to find a pebble.

She aimed this blow at the old woman's knees. After the blow, Old Mrs. Ning fell headlong into the farmland, only a punch away from the flames. She was so frightened that she instinctively screamed, but her legs were weak and she couldn't run away even if she wanted to.

Xiaoxiao flashed back to space again, and then took out a special item that had been stored for several days - a large pot of leeches that Mrs. Ning had deliberately put into the Ning family's field.

She didn't have to leave the space to do this job. The exit of the space was positioned, and the leeches appeared on Mrs. Ning's back one after another. Through her clothes, they didn't do much harm, but they were very intimidating.

Just hearing a scream pierced the sky, Mrs. Ning was frightened and fainted on the field ridge.

There was still no one around, so Xiaoxiao extinguished the fire and took away most of the leeches, leaving only a dozen or so. She put the fire stick back into her hand and used the space exit positioning function to move back five meters at a time. .

If someone were here and saw her flashing five meters away, they would probably think that they had seen a ghost in broad daylight.

But with this method, Xiaoxiao went back very quickly and even gathered a handful of grass for Ning Fengnian to see.

A farmer who has been a farmer for many years can tell at a glance that the pasture is completely mature, so Xiaoxiao happily prepares the gifts he will bring to Shen Mansion tomorrow.

Crayfish is a must, other flavors can be cooked tomorrow, but the Huadiao ones need to be marinated today.

The ice cubes brought from Shen Jiayun in advance are already in place. Xiaoxiao uses an appropriate amount of ginger, bay leaves, star anise, cinnamon, peppercorns, rock sugar, salt and light soy sauce to make the soup. After it cools down, add Erguotou and Huadiao wine and set aside. Add cold water to the steamer, spread the ginger slices, put the washed crayfish on the pot and steam it with the lid. After the water boils, steam for 5-8 minutes. Then quickly put the steamed lobster into ice water to cool it, so that the shrimp meat will be more Q bomb is refreshing.

The crayfish that have completed these steps need to be soaked in a cool place overnight to absorb the flavor. With enough ice and space for preservation, this pot of shrimp will still be fresh and delicious tomorrow.

When the Ning family built a new house, they also built a cellar at Xiaoxiao's strong request. When Xiaoxiao put the ice bucket with shrimps in the cellar and came out, she happened to see some villagers dancing and talking with Ning Fengnian.

She pretended to pass by casually, and heard the man exclaim in a voice that was almost broken: "What on earth do you think is wrong with you, the stepmother, that you actually set fire to your land to release leeches?"

"But she was really unlucky. She couldn't set the fire and knocked herself out."

"She's still making excuses right now, insisting that the leech has nothing to do with her."

"Hey wait, does she mean to admit to setting the fire?"

Ning Fengnian did not make any further comments. He poured a glass of water for the villager to calm down, and then went to the fields to check the condition of the crops. When he came back, he said to Mrs. Song: "The problem is not big. The fire was put out before it even started. I guess it's gone out." It was just drained today and there is a lot of humidity.”

Mrs. Song was very worried: "It's very humid today, but what about tomorrow? The ground is completely dry. If we ask her to burn it with fire...then won't your work for so long be in vain?"

She took off her apron and said, "No, I have to talk to them about it!"

Ning An was waiting for this, picked up the shovel at the door, and stuffed a wooden stick into his mother. Ning Fengnian laughed angrily: "Are you going to reason or fight?"

Ning An pouted back: "As my sister said, you can't have the intention to harm others, but you can't have the intention to guard against others."

Ning Fengnian did not lecture him, only said: "Protect yourself first, and then attack if they are unreasonable. Your sister also said, be polite before fighting."

Xiaoxiao: ...Is she the one who told me about the co-authorship?

She cleared her throat: "Actually, I think it's useless for you to go there. The people in Laozhai, no matter how clear the truth is, would rather be fools. They might cry, make trouble, and hang themselves. Don't Forgot, the second aunt is about to give birth. Besides, this matter is obvious, we don’t need to waste words to make it clear, our first priority now should be to protect the food in the fields. "

Everyone thought she was right, so Ning Fengnian volunteered: "Get up today and I'll stay in the field."

Mrs. Song was reluctant to let go of her husband, but she was equally reluctant to let go of the gratifying increase in grain in the fields. When she was struggling, she heard Xiaoxiao say: "Actually, there is another way."

After what happened to Mrs. Ning, it was absolutely impossible for the Ning family to wait at home and wait for the food to mature. They had no confidence in the character of the old house.

But staring at it day and night was too much for people, so Xiaoxiao came up with a solution - hire someone.

The candidates are also ready-made - the refugees arranged by the county magistrate to come to Fuyuan Village.

Those people couldn't find a job for the time being and were anxious to make a living. Xiaoxiao suggested hiring them to look after the rice fields until harvesting. In fact, according to her wish, she would also hire these people during harvesting, so everyone would be much more relaxed.

The first half of the sentence was approved by the family, but no one commented on the second half for the time being. The Ning family has not yet adapted to the status change from being employed to employing others.

Xiaoxiao is not in a hurry, it is only a matter of time before things change gradually.

After learning the news, more than a dozen refugees came to the gate of Ningjiayuan and offered themselves.

After experiencing famine, no matter what status or family background they had in the past, they have suffered enough now. Just guarding the rice fields is nothing to them, and it has only been ten days. They can earn fifty cents just sitting there and watching. It couldn't be easier.

If he were more diligent and did other tasks at the same time, such as cutting some of the small bamboo tubes that the Ning family wanted, his daily income would be enough to survive in a short period of time.

Maybe if they work a few more times, they can collect enough money to buy land. Even if it is wasteland, as long as they are willing to endure hardship, they can always grow food to support themselves.

Xiaoxiao recognized the stranger who had just helped her from the crowd at a glance: "What's your name?"

The man was also surprised: "Chen Kuan."

Chen Kuan and another man named Wang He were selected together. The two took turns to avoid running out of energy. When Xiaoxiao took the two of them to the field, he said casually: "Actually, I still have another piece of land that needs help from someone to look after it. If I look back, You two are good at it, you can continue."

The work was very simple. It was arranged before it got dark. The two of them started working directly without training. They also quickly built a simple shed on the ridge of the field. One could rest while the other worked without fear of delaying things.

With the two of them here, the Ning family had a good night's sleep. However, Ning An was uncomfortable tossing and turning at night: "Are we just going to let the baby do the evil?"

Ning Ansheng put down the book: "Then do you want to go over and make a big fuss and ask them to pay for it or apologize?"

It's impossible to pay compensation, let alone say that Daozi is fine, even if something really happens, they can hide their bad intentions and get over it.

It is impossible to apologize in this life. If the trouble is too much, the old woman may resort to some tricks that make people sick. Ning An understands the reason, but she just feels uncomfortable.
