A family of three goes through the ages, not being a saint and not helping the poor

Chapter 115 Let’s Talk Later

More than 20 minutes later, Chu Yiling brought Meng Qiuping to the yam patch, pointed at the yam vines and said, "Look, am I seeing things?"

"I'm sure you read that right. I wonder how many yams we can dig out from such a large patch of yam vines?"

"Definitely a lot."

"By the way, does anyone else know about this yam besides you?"

"Probably not. I didn't even tell the three brothers of the Chu family."

"That's good. Let's dig two yams first and take them back. We can deal with the rest after your dad comes back."

When Chu Yiling heard Meng Qiuping's words, she said "OK" and began to teach Meng Qiuping verbally how to dig yam.

After Meng Qiuping dug out two broken yams, she knew that Meng Qiuping had no talent in digging yams.

So she didn't let Meng Qiuping continue to dig yams. Instead, she used the excuse that two yams were enough for their family's meal and went home with Meng Qiuping.

When Chu Anshan got home that night, he saw that all the dishes on the table were related to yam, so he asked, "Did you guys mess with the yam today? Otherwise, why are there so many yam-related dishes?"

"Eat first, I'll talk to you later."

"it is good."

More than half an hour later, dinner was over. Chu Anshan washed the dishes and returned to the main room. He asked Meng Qiuping, "Can we talk now?"

"Lingling found a large patch of yam on the mountain. The yam you are eating tonight was dug by Lingling and I."

"Besides you and Lingling, does anyone else know about this?"

"Probably not. Lingling didn't even tell the three Chu brothers who went up the mountain with her."

Chu Anshan pondered for a while after hearing what Meng Qiuping said, and then he said, "Let's talk about this after I pay my taxes. I need to go and see the yam before making a decision."

"Okay, anyway, the yam will not run away after it grows there. You still have to help transport food tomorrow morning, so go to bed early tonight."

"it is good."

The next morning, Chu Yiling was awakened by Meng Qiuping. She opened her eyes and looked out the window, only to see that it was still dark.

She asked Meng Qiuping, "Mom, what time is it now?"

"It's already 5:10. Hurry up and get dressed. We'll go to the village entrance and wait for the tractor."

"So early? Can't you sleep in for twenty more minutes?"

“No, unless you don’t want to go to the county.”

When Chu Yiling heard Meng Qiuping's words, she lost all sleepiness and immediately got up from the kang, put on her clothes, washed up and had breakfast.

After she finished breakfast and looked at her watch, it was already half past five, so she and Meng Qiuping walked towards the village entrance with flashlights.

When they arrived at the village entrance, they saw quite a few people already standing there. It seemed that quite a lot of people were going to the county today. They didn't know if they could get a seat.

“Thump, thump, thump…thump, thump…”

"Mom, my dad is coming on a tractor. He is driving the tractor towards the village entrance."

"I saw it. You and your father will sit in the front of the car in a while."

"how about you?"

"I'll wait and see. If it doesn't work, I'll just walk there."

"How about we ride in the front of the car together?"

When Meng Qiuping heard Chu Yiling's words, she refused without thinking, because if she really dared to sit in the front of the car today, those people in the village who were jealous of her would definitely make up stories about her behind her back.

So based on the principle that less trouble is worse than more, she decided to do the same as everyone else.

Anyway, Huaishu Village is not far from the county town, so it is no problem for her to walk there.

So after Chu Yiling sat on the front of the car, she walked to the county town with everyone.
