Chapter 21 I always feel like you are dreaming
Just because I glanced at her once more in the crowd, I was remembered...
Hu Luanfei almost suffocated because of a mouthful of blood stuck in his throat. Should he praise others for being scheming, or blame himself for not being scheming?
But only a fool would believe such a lame excuse.
It’s late at night and I’m suffering from insomnia again.
The sky gradually brightens——
When Hu Luanfei woke up and went out, Qi Siliao had already chopped down the necessary wood. After his work, the sheep pen had become more spacious and comfortable. More than ten sheep could stay in it and run around freely.
People in the village who were rushing to work in the fields passed by their house to watch the fun. Uncle Niu stood outside his sheepfold and watched for a long time. He said with envy: "It's good to be young. You have strength, goals, and the ability to take action. It would be even more perfect if you had a child."
"The boy is handsome and the girl is pretty. How can I justify their looks if I don't have a litter?"
"..."
The villagers were talking and talking, and they started making dirty jokes outside early in the morning.
Although Qi Siriao was a prince, he had been leading troops in battles for many years and had the same character as most men. When it came to love, he could not help but follow the local customs and interjected a few words in a neither loud nor soft voice that happened to be heard by Hu Luanfei.
With red ears, she stood in front of the small window, looking outside through the crack. Qi Siliao rolled up his sleeves, standing tall and majestic among the crowd. His awe-inspiring look, even when he was smiling, made people involuntarily want to kowtow to him.
They chatted for a long time, and only when the women in the village went out one after another did they finally disperse.
Qi Siliao turned his head, and their eyes met. His burning gaze saw through her.
After being caught eavesdropping and peeping, she squatted down with her slightly hot face in her hands, unable to look directly at the affectionate man anymore.
He picked a purple flower from the clusters of flowers, walked home and gently placed it by the window, "There are eggs in the pot, eat them and then go back to work, I have to go into the mountains again."
Hu Luanfei raised his head and glanced at the window. The little purple flower was very much like the affection in his eyes, heavy and sad.
The morning mist was getting thicker and thicker. He walked away along the path. His tall figure gradually disappeared in the white mist, just like a blooming ephemeral flower.
In the haze, a mirage appeared in the human world without any warning, but quickly disappeared.
It is now the rice planting season, and more and more villagers are appearing in the fields. While there is water in the river, everyone is working harder.
Thanks to the efforts of a group of people, the sloped land suitable for farming gradually took shape.
Everyone was busy in an orderly manner, diverting water, weeding and plowing the fields.
This was Qi Siriao's fiefdom, but he never regulated the boundaries of the use of the sloping land. Whoever took a fancy to a piece of land could reclaim it and plant whatever they liked. Even if they wanted to dig a fish pond or build a house, they didn't need his permission.
"Madam Qi, has your family prepared to grow grain seeds?" The speaker was a beautiful girl with a graceful and plump figure. She looked quite familiar. She seemed to be the host who invited her to the full moon banquet - Yansi, Jiao Lan's cousin.
Both cousins are very good-looking, but Yansi looks more stable, like a southern girl, gentle and polite, speaking softly...
Hu Luanfei picked up the purple flower by the window and pinned it in her hair, then went out with a smile, "Not yet, I have to go to the market to buy grain seeds, so there's no rush for now."
"Yeah, it's the same as ours. I guess my man will go to the market tomorrow. If you don't want to go, just ask him to bring it back. It will save you from running for several hours."
"This is going to trouble you..."
"It's not a bother. I have to thank you for spending money to buy my little girl tiger-head shoes and clothes."
Hu Luanfei looked embarrassed and said, "This is the custom of my hometown. I hope you don't mind it."
"How can I despise you when I can't even thank you enough?"
After that, they chatted for a while.
I heard from Yansi that when Jiao Lan left Taohua Village, he asked her to tell Qi Siliao a message, but due to their respective identities, she did not dare to speak to him.
"My cousin said that if you have wild animals to sell or want to do some business in the future, you can find her and she will help you find an owner."
The real estate agents were omnipresent, and since Yansi was sensible, Hu Luanfei didn't bother about it. He dealt with her briefly and went to his vegetable garden with the wooden barrel.
Those women were really cruel yesterday and the vegetable garden was a mess.
She has to turn the soil and sow the seeds again today. This time she plans to expand the garden a little bit and make a decent ecological park mainly growing fruits and vegetables.
The thought that flashed through her mind made her pause suddenly.
If the ecological park is successfully built, it will attract wealthy people from all over the world to come and watch and pick fruits. Wouldn’t that make them rich overnight?
Once the goal is set, the spiritual motivation comes and I work much harder than before.
The sorghum seeds sown a few days ago were also watered by the space stream every day. They grew green and soon became as tall as a person.
Yansi's land is next to hers, and they also grow common fruits and vegetables, but when the two are compared, the difference is very obvious.
"Madam Qi, do you have any other secrets for growing vegetables?"
Hu Luanfei stopped watering, stood up and looked at the other family's vegetable garden, frowning slightly, "Your ridges are not right."
"What's wrong?"
"When we grow vegetables, we need to make ridges and beds. The width of the bed can be about one meter and the height is about half a meter. The land is made into square shapes according to the planting direction, and a ditch is left between the two plots of land. Ridge planting is selected in the rainy season, and flat bed planting is selected in drought. This is conducive to drainage and can also reduce fertilizer loss."
Yansi stared at her actions for a long time before coming to her senses, "I see, that's why. No wonder your family's production is so high."
"Well, I've been thinking about making a plan to turn our Taohua Village into a paradise, to attract more dignitaries to come and rest, and we can take the opportunity to make some extra money."
Yansi was stunned when she heard this. "What is extra income?"
Hu Luanfei moved his fingers and raised his eyebrows: "It's silver, lots and lots of silver."
Speaking of money, who wouldn’t be excited?
Yansi was moved, but hesitant, "Do you think you can do it by relying on our land?"
"Of course I can do it." Hu Luanfei answered without thinking: "Taking care of the land is just like taking care of people. How can there be any reward without paying? Yansi, do you want to join me?"
"This...I have to go back and discuss it with the head of the family."
Yansi has no say in this matter.
Hu Luanfei understood her concerns, just as Qi Siliao once said: I always feel like you are dreaming.
"It's okay. I can join you anytime you want."
Yansi hesitated for a moment, then nodded awkwardly.
Hu Luanfei returned to his vegetable garden and continued to work. When watering the vegetables, he secretly added some water from the space stream, and the seeds quietly sprouted.
