Chapter 488: Doubt
In an instant, Du Yunxi felt that Yu's mother was more like a well-manned mother. She looked at Yu's mother's eyes and asked, "Then Yu's mother, what did you tell me before, you live in the town, what's going on?"
Du Yunxi stared at Yu's mother with wide eyes. Seeing that she was talking to her so sincerely, Du Yunxi was actually willing to believe Yu's mother in his heart, but she was...
"Because I used to be a cook at the county magistrate's house. After my husband died, I met the gatekeeper of the county magistrate's house and entered the county magistrate's backyard. But what I never expected was that within a few days, the short-lived ghost went there, so I was driven out."
Yu's mother said, with a look of vicissitudes of life. She had experienced too many changes in the years, which forced her to bow to life.
"No wonder... Then you haven't told me?" Du Yunxi looked at her. It was Zhang Dayou who came to Qinghe Village. Yu Ma's expression changed a little, but she didn't expect it was because of this.
Now Du Yunxi looks at Yu Ma and always feels that she is being deceived.
"Girl, that's all the past. It doesn't matter whether you sue it or not?" Yu Ma said lightly.
"That Zhang Dasun really has nothing to do with you?" Du Yunxi asked again.
Yu Ma shook her head, "It doesn't matter to me and him. I don't know martial arts..." She looked helpless.
After talking for so long, Du Yunxi also understood the key point of the matter. She didn't blame Yu's mother, so she had to say, "I understand. We will leave Uncle Zhang at home when we go out. Have you lost anything today?"
Yu Ma pointed to the opposite side, "There is nothing else except some food. By the way, some people in that group said, "Miss, you delay their business, so they went home to make trouble."
"Detect business?" Du Yunxi's eyes immediately emerged. Every time the boss Ji Xiangju saw her, the expression of the expression he had whenever he saw her was like she owed him 800 taels of silver. If he was the one who was making trouble, Du Yunxi would believe it. She lowered her eyes and said, "Mama Yu, you are frightened, so you should go back to the house to rest!"
At some point, Feng Qize was already standing behind her. Du Yunxi turned around and looked at Feng Qize with a ugly face. She leaned her head slightly on Feng Qize's shoulder, and looked at Feng Qize with some injuries in her eyes and said, "Feng Qize, do you think, should I believe Yu Ma? Speaking of which, we have been together for so long, and I have already regarded her as a relative."
Feng Qize stretched out his hand and gently stroked her head, saying comfortingly: "Yunxi, if you really believe in her, there is no need to care about the past. Besides, those things are not good things, and it is normal for her to selectively forget them. We can try to understand her..."
"Really? Are you not afraid that Yu Ma is a traitor?" Du Yunxi raised his head and looked at him with confusion in his eyes.
"Madam, what are you afraid of when you and I are watching at home every day? Besides, if you are really a traitor, why are you throwing some food, not silver?" Feng Qize's eyes were filled with slight doubts.
Du Yunxi suddenly realized, yes, if Yu Ma was really a traitor, was it just to steal those grains of food? Thinking of this, Du Yunxi's heart suddenly relaxed. She looked at Feng Qize and said with a smile: "I understand, maybe we can do something that can reduce the stolen food."
As she said that, her eyes were filled with excitement.
"What's the matter?"
"Feng Qize, have you forgotten? I said before that I would provide seedlings to everyone and increase the yield of grain. As long as everyone can have food, I believe such things will be reduced a lot." Du Yunxi mentioned the past.
"That's right. At that time, I thought you were a little extravagant, but now I see food being stolen again and again, it seems that these things are inevitable." Feng Qize looked at Du Yunxi with appreciation, only to think she was very foresighted.
"But not all the villagers bought it at that time, so this matter was put on hold for the time being. But now, I have thought of a good idea." Du Yunxi said excitedly.
"What's the best way?" Feng Qize heard this for so long, but still didn't understand it.
"We may not be limited to this road. I think you can help you guide the construction of ditches, and then I can explain some issues of watering manure with the villagers, so that everyone can work hard to take care of the fields. At that time, you will definitely be able to collect more food during the autumn harvest." Du Yunxi said his thoughts.
Feng Qize's eyes lit up, "Okay, no matter what you say, I will support you, but I think the village chief can also make use of it."
He said, with a strange smile on his eyes.
"What do you want to do? The village chief should hate us so much. Since we came, the villagers have often come to us instead of giving him money. Besides, Zhang Sheng is still in prison now..." Du Yunxi expressed her concerns.
"With that being said, it's not certain whether Zhang Sheng came back or not. Yunxi, if Zhang Sheng came back, would you guess who the village chief is most afraid of meeting?" Feng Qize said with a smile on his eyes.
"Oh my God, are you saying that Zhang Sheng is back?" Du Yunxi stared at Feng Qize with wide eyes, and then said, "If Zhang Sheng is back, the village chief must be afraid of being seen by us. So the village chief has been staying at home recently?" As he said that, Du Yunxi suddenly seemed to have found some big secret, with surprise in his eyes.
She clearly remembered that when she built a house, the village chief looked at her from time to time. Although he was not trying to care about her nostalgic business, Du Yunxi knew that as an outsider, he built a house with great fanfare as soon as he came here, and everyone was full of jealousy.
"I can't be sure, but when I came back from the mountain a few days ago, I ran into someone. The back looked very similar." Feng Qize said to Du Yunxi.
"Why didn't I know you went to the mountains a few days ago?" Du Yunxi suddenly captured the key in his words.
Speaking of this, the green plant and the round 3d fruit at its root suddenly flashed in front of Feng Qize's eyes. He looked at Du Yunxi and said, "Wait for a moment, then hurried to the room and took out the fruit."
When Du Yunxi saw him as mysterious as this for the first time, he thought he was going to give her what gift. Who knew that she looked at the round and slightly yellow potatoes of Union and Feng Qize and said, "Feng Qize, don't tell me that what you want to give me is this potato, not a gift?"
Feng Qize said embarrassedly, "Yes, that's it. Madam, do you want a gift? I'll buy it for you now."
"No, don't, you'd better take a break!" Du Yunxi quickly stopped him. He said as if she was deliberately asking him for gifts, so she couldn't get over this hurdle.
"Don't worry, madam, I will give you a gift in a few days." Feng Qize couldn't help but look at Du Yunxi and said awkwardly.
"Okay, then I'll wait for your gift." Du Yunxi was not pretentious and agreed to him in one go.
Such a refreshing answer made Feng Qize feel guilty.
At this moment, Du Yunxi's mind was completely attracted by the potatoes in her hands. While playing with the potatoes in her hands, she asked: "Feng Qize, where did you find this? I have never seen anyone selling this here."
Feng Qize looked at her and said, "If you want to know, I can take you there. Anyway, I appeared on the mountain. Of course, there is no such thing in this place. I just looked at its green leaves and wanted to take them back for you to see."
"So that's the case, but Feng Qize, do you know that you're really right to take it so casually. Potatoes are a very high-yield thing. If a family can plant half an acre of potatoes, then you won't have to worry about eating them." Du Yunxi said happily.
"Will you eat this small earthy ball?" Feng Qize's eyes flashed with doubts.
"Yes, it's a pity that you only brought this one back, otherwise I'll cook it for you to try it. Potatoes can be steamed and fried, and fried potato strips are very plentiful." Du Yunxi said excitedly.
"Madam, do you want it? If you want it, I will pick it for you now." Feng Qize said to her.
"Of course I want it, but it's not now. If you have time, you can pick some for me. I'll be at home and make some adjustments." Du Yunxi looked at him and said seriously.
Needless to say, Feng Qize could guess that she was referring to Yu Ma’s affairs.
After thinking about it, Feng Qize was not at ease and left for a moment, so he looked at Du Yunxi and said, "Since that's the case, I won't go out in the next few days. I will protect you at home for a few days first. When I saw this potato thing you mentioned, there was a very large piece around, and the location was very secretive. I don't think anyone could find it."
"Okay, since that's the case, let's spend a few days with me at home!" Du Yunxi said with a faint smile.
Feng Qize nodded lightly and responded, "Don't worry, madam, I'll listen to you in everything."
In the afternoon, the sky gradually cleared. The big plum brought a few buckets of water. Du Yunxi brought a large wooden basin and put it inside. After cleaning it, everyone sat together and ate the fresh peaches.
"It's delicious, so fresh. Girl, how did you find so many peach trees?" Yu Ma asked while eating.
"I followed the mountain road and arrived, and then I saw this peach forest." Du Yunxi said with joy in his eyes.
"Girl, is it such a coincidence?" Yu Ma obviously didn't believe it.
But others didn't know that Du Yunxi had told Yu's mother before he went, and he just nodded and didn't speak for a while.
