Kingfisher looked at her family members, who shook their heads at her, indicating that she didn't have to leave.
She looked at the villagers again, and none of their sighing eyes showed reluctance to leave her.
After all, she was young and had experienced too little. The little girl was suddenly hurt by the villagers who had watched her grow up, and she felt very sad.
Finally, she looked at Xu Yue, who was standing in the firelight. The woman's eyes were as calm and gentle as the lake at night, without resentment or sadness.
It seems that the eyes of others cannot hurt her Fenhao.
Kingfisher was so envious that she couldn't help but feel sorry for the villagers' attitude.
"Dad..." Kingfisher walked towards his parents. When Chen Shou saw his daughter's distressed expression, he lowered his head in shame, not knowing how to face his daughter.
He was afraid that his daughter would think his father was greedy and stupid.
However, the expected complaints and condemnations did not appear. The girl just looked at him with tears streaming down her face.
She knew why her father did this. It was all because her family was too poor. They were so poor that their food reserves could only last for half a month at most, so they had to eat wild vegetables.
He was so poor that he couldn't even get a cent of the money to be exempted from labor. Once the higher authorities found out, my father would still have to go back to the mines to perform corvée.
The kingfisher cried and said: "Dad, you are wrong, but I don't blame you...I don't even blame you!"
Hearing his daughter's words, the man couldn't control himself. He covered his face with his hands and began to cry.
Kingfisher said: "Mom, sister, brother, please take good care of your parents. I'm leaving. I'm missing a piece of food at home. Maybe I can eat for a few more days..."
Everyone in the family looked at the kingfisher in shock. Her sister rushed up and hugged her.
"Don't leave. There is no shortage of food in the house like you. Don't Master Lei want to buy me as a concubine? I just promise him. Promise him and we will have food at home. You don't have to leave!"
Kingfisher violently broke away from his sister's arms, widened his eyes and shouted: "Sister, don't talk nonsense! My sister will not be a concubine for others!"
"The Xu family army will win. When the Xu family army comes, Master Lei will be the first to die!" Kingfisher shouted angrily, his eyes firm and murderous.
Looking into her eyes, people can't help but want to believe that Xu Jiajun will win.
Kingfisher handed the stunned eldest sister to his second brother, got up and walked towards Xu Yue, saying with a pair of tearful eyes:
"I want to be a female soldier, and I want to fight the emperor with you! I heard that the Xu Jiajun Volunteer Army can divide the fields. I will sell the fields I will be allocated to the Xu Jiajun. Can you give me some money first?"
Xu Dalang raised his eyebrows. Is this little girl not aware that the Xu Jiajun does not accept minors?
"How old are you?" Xu Yue asked.
Kingfisher's eyes wandered for a moment, and then he replied: "Fifteen! The Xu Jiajun Volunteer Army only needs people who are over fifteen years old, I know."
Wang Er had told her many of Xu Jiajun's rules.
Xu Yue looked her small body up and down and said she felt nervous even at fourteen.
Kingfisher felt guilty after being looked at by Xu Yue, fearing that Xu Yue would reject him.
But just when she felt that there was little hope, she suddenly heard Xu Yue ask: "Do you know the consequences of voluntarily joining the Xu Family Army?"
Xu Yue looked at the villagers behind Kingfisher, "I'm afraid even your family won't be able to stay."
But unexpectedly, the village chief, who had been holding back for a long time, suddenly asked: "Is Xu Jiajun really coming?"
Xu Yue patted her chest in a funny way, "Shouldn't I just stand in front of you, the village chief?"
Of course it’s really here, and it’s already here!
The village chief swallowed his saliva and asked again: "Well, then, the play you acted, in which Qi Laosi angrily beat up Wang Dabiao, was it true or made up?"
Wen Qing said responsibly: "Of course it is adapted from real events!"
He and the members of the drama troupe worked overtime and stayed up late to adapt the script, which was well received by the leader.
The village chief's cloudy eyes brightened a little, "Do you Xu Jiajun really care about the life and death of our people?"
Hearing this, Xu Yue suddenly became interested, and things seemed to be heading towards the path she had imagined.
Under Xu Dalang's disapproving gaze, Xu Yue raised her hand riskyly, and an ear of rice appeared in her palm.
This is the ear of hybrid rice that has not had time to thresh after it has matured.
In the light of the fire, the villagers saw with their own eyes that there were multiple ears of rice in Xu Yue's hand, and they all gasped.
Immediately afterwards, his eyes became hot.
Xu Yue said nothing, but smart people had already guessed her identity from her ability to transform into objects out of thin air.
This stimulation of facing the true nature of the legend made the villagers tremble uncontrollably.
"This is called hybrid rice, which is what everyone calls hybrid rice with a yield of 700 kilograms per mu. According to Xu Jiajun's rules, farmers only need to pay 50% of the agricultural tax. In other words, the remaining 350 kilograms are all farm work.
One’s own.”
"And the spring wheat that has just been planted in our village has a yield of 300 jins per mu, which is only considered a top-grade fertile field. The land in the village is barren, and most of it is middle- and lower-grade fields. A yield of 200 jins per mu is already good."
"With such a small output, we still have to pay 60% to Mr. Lei. The 40% you get, after excluding the grain tax, cloth tax and other taxes, can you still have 20% left?"
Xu Yue added: "I forgot to mention that my Xu family's army is so big that one pound of it is worth two of yours."
When the villagers heard this, their breathing became heavier. Grandpa Wang Er said excitedly: "No one has ever told us about this!"
Xu Yue smiled slightly, "I was afraid that everyone wouldn't know, so I brought so many people here to tell everyone."
"It's just that the village has been busy with spring plowing recently, and the wanted order was issued without a chance to announce it, which would injure the villagers. We have decided to leave tonight."
Xu Yue handed the hybrid rice ear to the village chief. The old man had never been under such great pressure in his life. He carefully held the fairy rice and said to Xu Yue:
"Why don't you all leave? Although we don't have many people in the village, with my old bones, we can still make up fifty or sixty people. If the officials come to take people away, we will fight them!"
When the village chief said these words, other villagers immediately echoed behind him. Grandpa Wang Er even said:
"I've long wanted to confiscate the Lei family!"
"Yes! Copy him! Then we can all grow magic rice!" The villagers were united as never before, and they all wanted to use this energy in one place.
This change stunned both Wang Er and Kingfisher.
But just when the villagers were excited, Xu Yue suddenly raised her hand, signaling everyone to stop and listen to her.
The villagers didn't respond. They stopped and looked at Xu Yue blankly.
This is what happens with people in trouble. Once you give them a little hope, they will follow you wholeheartedly.
But without everyone getting along with each other in the village these days, Xu Yue believes that even if she had given hope, she would not have achieved the results she has now.
