Chapter 222 Did I ask you to beg?

 At the Jiang Family Mansion in Jiangcheng, the raindrops outside the window fell into a large lotus tank under the eaves. The ripples on the water surface were connected one after another. Several small yellow koi fish were frightened and fled around, heading straight towards the green lotus leaves.

Hide.

On the table in the room, a few wisps of green smoke drifted out from the incense of a Pixiu beast, and suddenly a strange fragrance floated in the room, making people feel trance-like.

In front of the table, the eldest son of the Jiang family was playing with an inch-square aromatherapy tablet.

Not far away, a house slave was kneeling on the ground, with his back bent, and he replied: "Master, I just got the news that Huang Yi and Huang Er fell from the high wall when they went to burn the cotton seeds..."

"...I was kicked in the brain by the donkey tied up in the Xia family's backyard, and I fainted immediately."

"The villagers discovered their whereabouts and handed them over to the patrolling soldiers. Now the two are already in the prison of the General's Mansion."

The man spoke tremblingly and his voice became smaller and smaller.

"Kicked unconscious by a donkey?" After hearing this, Jiang Chengyun sneered: "If they grew up eating pig food, don't they have any brains?"

Yes, how can you not even climb a wall if you have brains?

Jiang Chengyun closed his eyes slightly, calmed down his emotions, and said, "Say hello to the people in the prison."

"Master Luo just sent someone to deliver a message"

The person in charge spoke cautiously, "He said... that the things people would commit while he was there would only be petty crimes, and they wouldn't cause any big commotion."

"He...he also said that if the people under your command are like this, you will pretend that you have never heard of what he said that day!"

I've never heard of it, Luo Hong is questioning his ability in Chi Guoguo.

Jiang Chengyun was immediately stimulated and scolded with a cold face: "The seeds are not burned, is there no other way?

"In this climate, the seeds will sprout out over time. If they are not buried in the ground, they will all rot. Isn't there any other way to stop her?"

He glared at the people on the ground and said sternly: "If you have to take action for such a trivial matter, then what is the use of me supporting you with real money all day long?"

The man kneeling on the ground kowtowed repeatedly and promised, "Don't worry, sir, I will do my best to serve you."

Jiang Chengyun didn't bother to look at him and waved his hand, "Get lost!"

The man got up and crawled out of the room.

The room suddenly fell into silence.

Jiang Chengyun stood up, came to the window, looked at the rain in the dark night, put the aromatherapy in his hand to his nose, took a deep breath, and slowly closed his eyes.

It rained all night, and when we got up in the morning, the rain still showed no sign of weakening.

Yesterday, I was worried about a thief, and the whole family didn't sleep well.

Li Yunniang got up very early and went to the kitchen to cook.

Xia Qianqian also put on her clothes and stood up, standing under the eaves, staring at the rain curtain in the sky.

She was waiting for the cuttlefish to come, and she forgot to discuss the plow with them yesterday.

There are several persimmon trees planted on the west side of the Xia family's yard. After a night of wind and rain, many leaves fell off and accumulated in the small drainage ditch, causing poor drainage. The water in the yard became deeper and deeper.

.

She put on her clothes and held an umbrella to sweep the leaves aside so that the accumulated water could be quickly drained away.

Take care of the water accumulation in the yard.

Xia Qianqian suddenly screamed in her heart that something was not good.

She held an umbrella and hurried to the backyard, walking through the long aisle. At a glance, her mind began to buzz.

When two stupid thieves fell from the wall last night, they smashed a corner of the shed. It was dark yesterday, but they didn't care.

Unexpectedly, at night and in the afternoon, the gap became larger and larger, and rainwater flowed down the damaged area, soaking the two donkeys' fur completely.

The poor donkey was knocked unconscious by drugs yesterday. His brain has been dizzy and he doesn't like to bark anymore.

They cuddled together in a corner of the shed, licking the rainwater from each other's bodies.

The donkey is pitiful, and the cotton seeds next to it are even worse.

The rain poured in, the ground was damp, and most of the sacks piled together were soaked.

If the seeds get damp and the temperature is right, it will only accelerate their germination speed.

It’s really raining all night when the house leaks.

Xia Qianqian was so anxious that she hurried to the front yard, found a large piece of linoleum, and carried it to the backyard.

Seeing her figure walking back and forth, Li Yunniang hurriedly ran in the rain, "What's going on?"

As soon as I arrived in the backyard and saw the scene in front of me, I immediately exclaimed: "Old man, how could you forget this?"

She also ran to help in the rain.

Next door, Ji Zimo heard the commotion here, opened the back window, and saw the man climbing the ladder. He was so anxious that he couldn't breathe, "Geng Zhong, go and take a look."

Geng Zhong pushed open the back door, tiptoed a little, and then landed on the wall, "I'll do it."

The three of them helped to repair the gap at the top of the shed, and when they returned to the front yard under an umbrella, Ji Zimo stood upright at the door of the kitchen, with a long and thick white cloth hanging on his arm.

As soon as she passed by, he immediately threw it to her, and the white cloth drooped on her head.

He said angrily: "Your hand is injured. What if the dressing gets wet and the wound becomes infected?"

"But there are holes in the shed at the back and the cotton seeds got damp. I..." She still wanted to explain.

But he said solemnly: "There are some grown men living next door, just call them."

Xia Qianqian held down the white cloth and wiped the rainwater from her hair with one hand, and said with a smile: "I never like to ask for help for things I can do."

"Did I ask you to beg?"

He seemed a little angry and said with a sullen face, "You are helping me with such a big thing, and I am helping you so much, how can I use the word begging?"

Why is this person getting so angry?

Xia Qianqian suddenly lost her temper, "Okay, whatever you say will be what it is. Now I have something that I need you to do, and time is tight, so the sooner the better."

As she spoke, she turned around and took out the design drawing of the plow from her sleeve, and handed it over, "I need this kind of tool. I will make at least three of them within three days."

"This is..." Ji Zimo took the drawing and looked carefully at the strange patterns on it.

"The multi-functional rake can integrate plowing, planting and fertilizing into one, one-stop service, and can be completed at one time." Xia Qianqian explained proudly.

This is the first time Ji Zimo has seen such a farming tool.

Li Yunniang and Geng Zhong also came forward to watch and discuss.

"Qianqian, you said yesterday that you were thinking of a way to draw it?" Li Yunniang asked

Xia Qianqian nodded, "I went to see it. With the few manpower in the village, we can't complete the work of hoeing in the short term. Everyone on the guard side of Geng is also busy. Compared with manpower, it is safer to use advanced equipment."<

/p>

She turned to Geng Zhong and told Geng Zhong, "In three days, help me find six more cattle. I will use two days to finish the work in the fields."

Plowing the ground and sowing seeds in two days would be impossible if done manually.

If it were done by oxen, an ordinary plow wouldn't be able to do so much work in two days.
