Chapter 596: Chapter 583: Drought

“Anyway, I can’t carry all this stuff. Take it back first, and whatever is missing at home, I’ll mention it later.”

Zhuang Qingning originally wanted to dissuade everyone from politely giving her more things, but as soon as the words came out, someone picked up the conversation and said, “No problem, if you can’t take it, I’ll deliver it to your house.”

“Exactly, it’s just a couple of steps away. You go ahead with your chores, and I’ll deliver it to your house.”

“Xiangqiao should be at home too, let her keep them, you don’t need to worry about it…”

And so, the crowd ignored Zhuang Qingning, and took and carried their stuff, heading towards Zhuang Qingning’s house.

Zhuang Qingning looked at everyone cheerfully giving away their stuff and was momentarily speechless.

She had only been away from home for a short 20 days, did they already miss her this much?

As Zhuang Qingning was contemplating this, Zhuang Jingye walked swiftly towards her. Seeing her, he grinned, “Ning girl, you’re finally back.”

“Uncle Village Chief.” Zhuang Qingning looked at Zhuang Jingye, who seemed extremely delighted, and his eager eyes made her feel like a prey. She hurriedly stepped back, “I have too many things at home, we can’t finish them all.”

Upon hearing this, Zhuang Jingye chuckled, “You girl, I haven’t said anything and you’ve already guessed what I’m going to say? I didn’t say I’m going to give you more things.”

Realizing that she had misunderstood Zhuang Jingye, Zhuang Qingning felt somewhat embarrassed and coughed lightly, “There’s no need to give anything, that’s good.”

“We slaughtered a lamb at home, your aunt is about to roast the whole leg. You just came back in time, come over to my house, we’ll have roast lamb for dinner tonight.” Zhuang Jingye grabbed Zhuang Qingning’s hand, and without saying a word, began walking home.

Zhuang Qingning, “…”

Actually, what he said was not wrong.

He indeed did not have to give her anything, but just directly took her to eat something.

Seeing Zhuang Jingye’s determination and sensing that he wouldn’t let her go unless she went with him, Zhuang Qingning did not refuse much and followed him first.

As for whether to eat dinner or not, she would decide later.

When they got to Zhuang Jingye’s house, Mrs. Ye was also very happy to see Zhuang Qingning. She gave her apricots and sweet melons, and while feeding her, she kept praising, “This time, we really owe it to Ning girl.”

Owe her… what?

Zhuang Qingning was a bit confused for a moment.

“Isn’t it because of Ning girl?” Zhuang Jingye lifted his chin, “If it weren’t for Ning girl finding such a good variety of wheat, our crops this year wouldn’t have grown so well, and we wouldn’t have harvested so much grain!”

Having heard this, Zhuang Qingning completely understood, it was about the new type of wheat she had promoted.
