The Little Landlord of Transmigration

Chapter 1 1. Leek



Chapter 1 1. Leek

In mid-February, the sun has been out for a long time and is warm, making the spring breeze, which was still a bit chilly, finally feel a little chilly.At this time of year in Gushui Town, all that can be seen in the fields is wheat. The wheat seedlings are already as tall as the leeks sold in the market. They are connected one by one. At a glance, the air seems to be dyed with a little green.

On a ridge in the wheat field, there were six [-]- or [-]-year-old boys standing, the one at the front was bending over, touching the leaf tips of the wheat seedlings with great interest, while the other five seemed bored and seemed They didn't dare to bother the teenager in front of them, but just exchanged their thoughts with their eyes, which should be very familiar after all.

Finally, a fat boy among them rolled his eyes a few times and couldn't help but said: "Master Xu, look, these are leeks. You haven't seen so many of them, have you?" People are winking, with a look of triumph after a prank

"Well, I haven't seen any human beings in the city before, Agui, are these really all of them?" After hearing his words, the young man called Master Xu paused for a moment with his hand stroking the wheat seedlings, then stood up, Looking at the wheat field in front of him, he looked back at the young man who was talking, and asked as if he was really curious.

"Of course they are. People in our village don't often eat meat. They eat leeks the most. They eat them every day! So they grow a lot." The boy named Agui saw that Xu Lingyuan was as ignorant as he expected, He was even more proud, and quickly responded in a show-off manner.

Hearing what he said with certainty, Xu Lingyuan looked at the others. Except for a tall and thin boy who looked at him with dodge eyes, the others all looked at Agui in unison, as if they didn't know anything and everything was covered by him. The expression on Agui's body.

"Growing so many leeks, don't you need to eat other than vegetables? Where can you grow food?" Do you really think him a fool?The original Young Master Xu may not know, but for him, even if he doesn’t know wheat seedlings, he only needs a little common sense. In ancient times, when he was basically self-sufficient, how could there be such a large area of ​​leeks, which is not a modern vegetable. Planting base.

"Uh... this... Anyway, after the leeks are harvested, we can plant wheat, so there's no delay." Maybe he didn't expect the young master of the landlord's family to ask such a question, Agui was stunned for a moment, but he quickly answered He finished it, and added a sentence at the end: "Wheat can be ground into white flour." After finishing speaking, he felt smart and raised his chin even higher.

"That's it, can I pull some back? How do I eat this?" Xu Lingyuan thought for a while and asked Agui.Obviously, among them, Agui, the son of the patriarch, had the most say.

"Ah, of course, this piece of land belongs to A Qi's family, A Qi, quickly pull out a bundle for Master Xu." The little fat man's cheeks became more rosy and plump when he smiled. Fish, like actively biting a hook without bait.

"Scrambled eggs with leeks are the best." A thin child interrupted quickly.

"Agui, you..." The boy named Aqi, that is, the tall and thin boy, looked at Agui and the others, and said with some embarrassment.

"Aqi, Master Xu just wants a bundle of leeks, you don't need to be so stingy, pull them out quickly, can we help you with just one bundle?" Under Agui's urging, he finally squatted in the corner of the field , Picked a small bundle from a dense place, skillfully used a pinch of leaves as a rope, wrapped it around and tied it up, and saw that no one was going to pick it up, so he carried it in his hand.

Having finished wandering in the wheat fields, the group went to the river not far away.The few behind were walking, while lowering their voices and muttering: "Ah Gui, you dare to lie to Young Master Xu, are you afraid that his father will hang you from the beam and beat you if he finds out?"

"Go, go, do you think it's your father who treats you?"

"However, why are you lying to him?"

"Ah Gui, forget it."

"This young master is really stupid, he can't even tell the difference between wheat seedlings and leeks, hehe..."

"Shut up, and tell you that the people in the city are all geese, and they know to eat ready-made ones, and they won't eat anything that's not tasty. Besides, our place is not fun, maybe he will go back tomorrow, The county seat is so far away, so he wouldn't make a special trip." Seeing their voices getting louder, Agui reprimanded them pretending to be mature.

"Hey, let him taste..."

"Shh, watch out he heard you."

"Oh……"

Young Master Xu, that is, Xu Lingyuan, walked in front alone, listening to what he thought was a whisper behind him, the corners of his mouth could not help but curled up a little. He didn't know if it was because of his good hearing, or because people in the country spoke loudly.

A few people came to the river. Although the ditches in Gushui Town are densely covered, it looks like a water town in the south of the Yangtze River, but in fact, there is only one river less than ten meters wide. The villages are built along the river, and the villages There are dams in the upper and lower reaches of the village, forming a living lake near the village. The water surface is more than three to four times wider. It is the most important source of water for the villagers to do laundry, cook, and irrigate the garden.Although there was no ice in the river at this time, the surrounding area was bare, making the river dark and dark, and there was no good scenery.

Xu Lingyuan stood forward, wanting to see how the unpolluted river water looked like, when suddenly his foot stepped on the ground and he slid into the river suddenly.Just when he thought he was going to become a drowned chicken, someone grabbed him from behind, so it was safe and sound.

Maybe it was because he was too thin, A Qi who was holding him didn't seem to use much effort, and he didn't throw away the things in his hand when saving him.After he regained his footing, he realized that the weeds spreading toward the bottom of the river were very thick, and the fluffy weeds made the bank look wider than it actually was, which misled him to step on the ground, no wonder Agui and the others didn't move forward.

Xu Lingyuan thanked him gratefully. He didn't seem to expect that Xu Lingyuan would thank him at all. He froze for a moment, opened his mouth, didn't know what to say, and just stared at the wheat seedlings in his hand.

"Master Xu, the river is freezing cold now, and there's nothing interesting about it. Let's go and have a look elsewhere?" Agui was also taken aback by what happened just now. It was just a false alarm, but if his father found out, he would definitely be beaten when he went back. After all, it was his father who asked him to accompany Xu Lingyuan to wander around.Therefore, he wanted to take Xu Lingyuan away from the river as soon as possible, and it was better not to cause trouble.

"Okay." Xu Lingyuan agreed, turned around and walked back and forth.It may be because of the river water, the wind blowing on the face is a bit cold, and the face is icy cold.

Looking at the field at a glance, except for the wheat seedlings, there was really nothing to see, so they went to the village.

The place where Xu Lingyuan lived was not in the village, but on the roadside outside the village, about one mile away from the village.After crossing, although he moved here from the county town for half a month, he has been recuperating at home because of his frailty and illness. This is the first time he has gone out, and of course it is also the first time he has entered the village.

Fortunately for him, the relationship between the landlords and farmers here is still very friendly, and it is not the bitter hatred between Huang Shiren and Yang Bailao that he imagined.

"I heard that your village is called Qinjia Village. Is it because many people in the village have the surname Qin?" Xu Ling asked while walking.

No one answered his words, it seemed that he heard a very ridiculous question, which made people disdain to answer.

"Why? Isn't it like this?" He asked with some doubts, thinking that it doesn't have to be this kind of reaction, right?

"Hey, you don't know, not most of our village is surnamed Qin, all of them are surnamed Qin, and no one has a foreign surname." Agui said proudly.

"Both adults and children are surnamed Qin." The other followed up and said in the same proud tone.

"Look, my name is Qin Wengui, and their names are Qin Wen'an, Qin Wenxi, Qin Wenshan, and Qin Wenqi." Afraid that he wouldn't believe it, Agui said their names one by one.

"..." Xu Lingyuan could only sigh silently in his heart, this village really lived up to its name.

At this time, the people in the village were not busy, and most of them were buying and repairing farm tools at home, repairing chicken coops, duck coops, etc. Maybe they had known for a long time that a newcomer had arrived in the yard outside the village. They were not surprised to see Xu Lingyuan, and most of the adults were polite. Smiling at him, the children huddled together and looked at him from a distance. Xu Lingyuan didn't talk to them, but just walked around to look around.

"What are you pulling it for? You know how to mess around all day long when you're idle?" When he reached the door of A Qi's house, his father was repairing a hoe at the door, saw the wheat seedlings in his hand, and asked with a straight face.

A Qi looked at Xu Lingyuan, then at A Gui, without saying a word.

"Uncle Six, this is what Young Master Xu wants." Agui said quickly.

"Oh, let's go, don't mess around." A Qi's father gave Xu Lingyuan a puzzled look, and went on to repair the hoe after speaking.

"Master Xu, why don't you ask for this, it will be ruined by A Qi." Maybe because he thought Xu Lingyuan was easy to get along with, so he didn't plan to tease him anymore, A Gui persuaded him, and signaled A Qi to throw it away .

"It's a pity to throw it away, so give it to me." Xu Lingyuan took it.

"Why don't I get you a better bundle later, don't want this one?" Agui said unwillingly.

"Forget it, don't bother, this bundle is pretty good, not to mention Aqi has taken it all the way, it's a pity to throw it away." Xu Lingyuan said very firmly.

Seeing his insistence, they kept silent, and looked at him with sympathetic and helpless eyes, as if saying, since you asked for it, there is nothing we can do about it.

"It's time for lunch. You have worked so hard to accompany me all morning, so come to my house for lunch." Seeing that it was almost noon, Xu Lingyuan invited them.

The few people didn't expect him to say that, and looked at each other a few times, not so much that they couldn't make up their minds, but rather that they didn't know how to refuse, especially after seeing the wheat seedlings in Xu Lingyuan's hands, they felt even more guilty.

"us……"

"I really want to thank you, don't you even want to go to my house for a meal? If you don't go, my family will definitely think that I am not good, so you don't want to talk to me, and you will definitely scold me Mine." As he said, he made a disappointed expression, Xu Lingyuan didn't know that he could tell lies so frankly.

"Then...well then, we'll just go with you." Sure enough, he was still very silly and naive, Xu Lingyuan thought with a smile after receiving a satisfactory answer.
