C15 The Villagers Were also Very Puzzled

When the villagers found out that Shu Xiang had spent thirty taels of silver to buy five acres of mountainous area, they all secretly waited for her to make a joke of herself.

Although everyone knew that Shu Xiang was most likely deceived by the village chief, everyone was like this, and this matter had nothing to do with them. Besides, Shu Xiang being tricked was because she was stupid. She couldn't even tell what kind of place she was in. She deserved to be tricked!

For the past few days, the village chief had been paying attention to the commotion over at Shu Xiang's side, waiting to make fun of her. He had even thought about how he would mock her if she came to find trouble with him.

However, Shu Xiang's side did not make any sound for the past few days. Not only was the village chief puzzled, but the nearby villagers were also puzzled. People were constantly peeking at Shu Xiang's house for the past few days.

Shu Xiang, who was the center of everyone's discussion, was busy working in the house!

Shu Xiang, who did not listen to outside news, knew what people were talking about, even if she did not pay attention. But she did not care. If anyone else wanted to talk, she could just let them talk. Dante said well, go your own way and let others talk about it!

These days, Shu Xiang almost never stepped out of her house. She was drawing the blueprints for the fish pond.

That's right, Shu Xiang was very clear about what kind of land the five mu of land was. What she knew very clearly was that even that kind of an Earth Village Chief would not be able to easily sell it to her.

Thus, she deliberately asked whether she wanted to farm the fertile land or not. Naturally, the Village Head would not sell it to her. Even if she did sell it, the price would definitely not be low.

She purposely let the Village Chief misunderstand that she did not understand the workings of these fields. Thus, the Village Chief naturally "scammed" her. The village chief thought that he had succeeded, but it was the complete opposite!

After all, she was someone who wanted to test herself to be a doctor in scientific research. How could she not know about the habits of crops? She wanted to lie to her and wait another hundred and eighty thousand years!

Shu Xiang had stumbled upon that piece of land while digging up wild vegetables. Although it wasn't suitable for growing grains, it was a perfect place to raise fish. She had been thinking long ago about how to buy this piece of land.

Originally, she had planned to buy one or two acres of it. But now that the amount had doubled, of course she had to make a good plan. Now that he had drawn the blueprint, all that was left was manmade!

"Loong Qi ~ ~"

"You … What are you doing? " Loong Qi looked at Shu Xiang in fear.

Shu Xiang moved her little head. It would be difficult for her to fish pond without the help of these two noble people. With a smile, he said, "Aiyo, actually, it's nothing much, I just have a small matter that I need your help with!"

Loong Qi had a nervous expression on his face. The scene of his master being slandered by this woman as a husband was still echoing in his mind. "What is it?"

"You know what? I've bought a few acres of land recently. I'm going to use this land to dig a pond." Shu Xiang spoke without restraining herself from speaking.

"Dig into the fish pond?" Zhao Sheng raised his eyebrows.

"That's right! "If not, could it really be used for farming?" He had already said that this woman was extremely shrewd. How could she possibly be tricked?

"You want me to help you dig a pond?!" Loong Qi looked at Shu Xiang in disbelief.

"That's right, do you want me, a weak girl, to dig, or do you want Little Baozi and Lingdang to dig?" Shu Xiang said matter-of-factly.

"You want me to be a pope... "To dig the fish pond!" Loong Qi choked for a bit and was just in time to stop himself from saying those words.

"No matter how amazing you are, aren't you still living in my shitty thatched cottage? What's more, I told you to dig, and you didn't even let your master dig!" "Right, your son's father!"

"Pfft!" Loong Qi spat out a mouthful of water.

"Oh right, this child's father, I've been busy drawing these past few days …" Don't worry, I'll be accompanying you tonight! " Shu Xiang blinked at Zhao Sheng.

He really wanted to pry open this woman's head. Did she know that she was shameless? Zhao Sheng raised his cold face and spat out one word! " "Dig!"

Loong Qi shuddered. This woman was really amazing. Her words were always unacceptable to others. Since when did this little village become so open-minded?

After capturing the strong men, Shu Xiang's fish pond project began in full swing.

Shu Xiang asked Loong Qi to dig a trench that was about 450 feet long and about 300 feet long horizontally according to the blueprint.

In the beginning, it was Shu Xiang who guided him. After Loong Qi slowly understood the blueprints, Shu Xiang was no longer useful and could only help to fix these corners.

Zhao Sheng, who had been played by Shu Xiang, was responsible for taking care of the children at home.

Ever since there had been some activity from Shu Xiang's side, a steady stream of people had come to see the commotion. It was strange to see Shu Xiang not only not crying but also not going to look for the Village Head.

Seeing that Shu Xiang had found someone to reclaim the land, he thought that Shu Xiang did not understand and made fun of her behind her back.

Gradually, some people figured out that Shu Xiang was not reclaiming the land and was preparing to sow it. She seemed to be planning on doing something else.

Finally, some of those who had worked outside discovered it. Could it be that this Shu Xiang was preparing to dig a fish pond?! At the beginning, they didn't believe it, but with their local drought every day, it was impossible for them to raise live fish.

However, when Shu Xiang's fish pond started to take shape, everyone finally believed that Shu Xiang had gone crazy and dug a fish pond out of the ground!

That day, just as Shu Xiang carried her basket out to deliver the food to Loong Qi, she was stopped by a few women.

Shu Xiang searched her memories and finally remembered who the people in front of her were.

Li Xiufeng, Wang Guiyue and Lu Chunhua, the village chief's wife, were the three most talkative women in Soong Village.

"Aiyo, isn't this Shu Xiang? What, digging out the fish pond again? "

"Haha, that's right. I saw Shu Xiang running up the mountain for the past few days. I'm sure your fish pond should be dug up soon?"

"Shu Xiang, it's not that sister-in-law is talking about you, but you really aren't good at work. Just from how much trouble we've been having these past few days, the fish won't be able to survive!"

"Yeah, we only told you because we were kind. Your family is so full that they don't even have enough to feed you!"

"There's no need for you three sister-in-law to worry about this." Shu Xiang replied coldly.

"Why do you say that? We are worried about you, so why don't you recognize us?"

"That's right, if you want to raise fish, you'll have to see if you're the same material!"

"Some people just overestimate themselves. Let's see if they have the ability to do so!"

"It was only because we were kind that we came to remind you. If it was someone else, would they pay attention to you?" Lu Chun Hua looked at Shu Xiang with disdain and said.

Shu Xiang couldn't help but roll her eyes. Normally, it was fine that they would gossip behind her back, but today, they actually came looking for her. They really thought she was easy to bully!

"Sister Lu, this land was sold to me by the village head!" Don't you know why I dug the fish pond? " Shu Xiang said maliciously.

"What do you mean? This place was something that you insisted on buying back then, why do you care about our family? You don't want to buy yourself a bad place to bite people like a mad dog! " Lu Chun Hua did not have the ability of the village head. Shu Xiang hadn't said anything yet, but she was already feeling guilty.

"That's right, I said I would buy five acres of good land. Now, if I can get a few acres of barren, rotten land, then I'll buy five mu of good land!" Sister-in-law Lu, I don't want to bother with you guys, but you shouldn't have provoked me again. Otherwise, I will have a good talk at the yamen! After all, thirty silver taels is not a small sum, what do you think? " Shu Xiang got closer and closer to Lu Chunhua. When she saw the flicker in her eyes, she knew that she was scared and left.

"I advise all of you, don't provoke me if you have nothing better to do. I don't have a very good temper, so if you cause any trouble, don't say that I didn't warn you in advance!"

After she finished speaking, Shu Xiang didn't care about what expression they had as she picked up the basket and left.
