Chapter 665 (1/2)
Mingshu listened for a long time. The crops in the village were dying because of the serious insect damage.
It's not a place. It's the same in all the villages nearby. The income of everyone is not very good.
At present, the yield of crops is low in this era, and the pest damage is reduced by another layer.
The villagers all complain, but what can we do? They can't prevent pests. Even if they stay in the field, they can't.
It has nothing to do with Mingshu. She patted her ass after eating and left.
Back to Liu Fu, I found that Liu Fu was also discussing insect pests.
Insect pest is not a big problem in modern times, but now, it is a fatal problem, and it seems that this year, the problem is still very big.
Most of the land in Yunli village belongs to Liufu. These villagers only help Liufu plant it, so the biggest loss is still Liufu.
For the next two days, almost the whole village was talking about pests.
Mingshu squatted on the ridge of the field, propped up his chin and watched Qin Ling pounding on the ground, ”if you grasp like this, will you not have it again tomorrow? It's better to make food for me than to waste time. ”
”These grains are the guarantee of living next year. How can we ignore them?” Qin Ling replied, ”second girl, you go back first. I'll come back when I finish.”
Mingshu was holding a locust, ”is this edible?”
Qin Ling turned to see Mingshu. After a long time, she said, ”it can be eaten, but it should not be delicious.”
Modern can also make delicious taste, here I guess there's nothing to eat.
Mingshu also casually asked, did not plan to eat insects, she has chicken legs to eat, why to eat this kind of food.
Mingshu threw away the locust and said, ”I can support you. Even if you don't have a harvest, you won't be hungry.”
”Poo --”
Qin Ling came out of the ground and wiped the sweat on her forehead. ”Second girl, how could you say that so misleading? Although we are all women, you should pay attention to your words. It's not good to be heard and spread.”
If it hadn't been for finding out why she followed her so much in recent days, Qin Ling would have thought she liked herself.
”What are you afraid of? Can you pass me on as a man?” I don't think so.
Qin Ling lost her smile. She went to the ridge and sat down to have a rest. She talked with Mingshu for a while.
”These insects are called locusts. They have a strong reproductive capacity. If we let them go on like this, they will eat up the crops sooner or later.” Qin Ling was worried.
She was not good at planting crops, but she had to think of a way to look at her father and mother.
Mingshu is absent-minded listening to Qin Ling.
When will you go back to cook?
What are you doing for me today?
”Ah
Not far away, there was a sudden scream, and people in the ground looked at it one after another.
”What's the matter?” Qin Ling also stood up.
A man stumbled out of the ground and yelled, ”dead, dead!”
Dead man?!
-
it was the daughter-in-law of the village's three willows, who had identified Liu Xinyue in the ancestral hall before.
Mingshu stood outside and took a look. The dead man was covered with a layer of grass. There were many locusts on it. Half of his body was trapped in the mud.
Liu Xinyue shouldn't be so bold. Does she kill people directly? !
when there are so many dead people, the villagers go to report to the official.
The officers and soldiers came, driving away the villagers from the scene, and all of them were rushed to the ridge on one side.
”Which bastard did it, don't let me know Son of a bitch, how miserable you died! Officer, do you want to make decisions for us... ” Liu San, as a family member, scolded and cried at the scene.
