Chapter Forty-Five: Visiting
The head of the Zhou family is the young and promising Zhou Zhishen. However, it has been two days since he arrived. The Zhou family can be seen busy everywhere, but Xia Chan has never seen Zhou Zhishen.
But he controlled the Zhou family well and never disturbed the Xia family.
The two tribes are close to each other, but they live in peace with each other.
In the past two days, I have focused all my attention on making a waterwheel. I made a prototype and tried it out. However, it is still not ideal and needs to be adjusted and tested again.
"Xiaochan, go back and take a look. Zhu Dingzhang has sent seeds."
"Is he so obedient?" It doesn't look like a villain.
"The patriarch said there seems to be a problem and asked you to go back and take a look."
"Okay." She washed the mud off her hands and said, "I'll go back right now."
"Where are the people?"
The clan leader shook his head: "You just left your things and left. How do you grow such food?"
When I opened the sack, I saw that it was all moldy and smelly grain. Xia Chan peeled it open and it broke into pieces when he touched it. It was all boiled.
Zhu Dingzhang must have a dark heart. Fortunately, she did not place all her hopes on him. She had been getting grain and seeds during her first two trips to the county.
"Don't eat the sweet potatoes, just plant them all." This kind of stuff has a high yield and can be planted once the seedlings have grown.
There is also some dried corn in her space, which can also be peeled out to make seeds.
"Can these things still be eaten?"
"It's so smelly that I won't even feed it to the dogs, just leave it alone."
"But we don't have enough seeds. How can we afford food for this autumn harvest?" The clan leader also frowned.
"Let's take it one step at a time." She never thought about handing over. She was so unstable that she didn't know when it would collapse.
I looked up and saw people from the Zhou family. Some were carrying water back, while others were carrying wood. They wanted to imitate the Xia family in building a wooden building. The children were standing by and watching timidly.
She stepped forward: "Do you know Zhou Xianghe?"
The child looked at her defensively and said nothing, but pointed at the man carrying a log not far away.
He was also a quite young man, and he was sweating profusely while carrying a tree on his back.
"Are you Zhou Xianghe?" Xia Chan looked at him kindly and greeted him kindly: "I am Xia Chan."
He looked up at her and asked calmly: "What's the matter?"
"I heard you can make a loom."
"Yes." He put down the wood and said directly: "But I won't help you without the consent of the owner of the family."
He is really loyal. It seems that Zhou Zhishen is really very prestigious in the Zhou family. No wonder the Zhou family has been here for several days, but there is no chaos at all.
But since they are so united, why did no one come forward when Zhou Waner was almost bullied on the first day?
That Zhou Wan'er is Zhou Zhishen's biological sister, I'm a bit confused.
But she thought she might have to visit Zhou Zhishen.
I went back and washed my face, changed into clean clothes, and went to visit. The thatched shed there was not like the ones before Xia's. It was very big. It was covered with banana leaves to prevent rain, and some anti-snake sprinklers were sprinkled around it.
White powder of insects.
A child of seven or eight years old stood outside, his back straight.
"Is the head of the Zhou family inside? I am Xia Chan, can I see you?"
"Wait a moment." The child said, "I'll go in and pass the message."
Even in exile, the shelf was still quite high. When the wind blew, she could smell the fragrance of mugwort inside.
"Miss Xia, the head of my family invites you to come in and meet me."
"Okay, thank you. These are the fruits I picked on the mountain. I want you to try them."
