Chapter 10 10 The ruined property

The affectionate and harmonious relationship between grandfather and grandson made Qi Qi, who lived in a reorganized family and was not taken seriously by her family since childhood and grew up alone, admired.

Qi Qi put one hand on her belly and looked at the blue sky and white clouds. Suddenly, the child in her belly kicked her. She touched it in surprise and felt an inexplicable excitement in her heart.

This is her child. I don’t know what he will look like when he is born, but he will definitely be a cute little girl with a doughy face.

Although she has no father like her, it doesn't matter. She will definitely work hard to be a good mother, give him all her love, double love, and prevent him from suffering any of the pain she suffered when she was a child...

With something in her stomach, Qi Qi couldn't sit idle anymore. She just took a look at the house, but she hadn't looked at the rest yet. She had to go and find out the situation.

After talking to the sixth wife, the sixth wife had nothing else to do, so she went with her and told her about the situation at the east end of the village.

The area at the east end of the village, which covers about 30 acres, is the lowest place in the village. Because it is close to the river, it faces varying degrees of disasters caused by floods such as spring floods, summer floods, and Ling floods every year. In the end, this place became the entire village.

The poorest place.

There are still about twenty dilapidated and abandoned houses here, and only six are actually inhabited.

The sixth wife's family is the one with the highest status among all the people.

Qiqi Heixian said, "Just tell me what it is, why bother buying a complete set of books."

The sixth wife looked at it and shook her head, "I don't know, and I don't know when it suddenly happened. There used to be children coming here to fish, but since this happened, the children have stopped coming..."

After going out, the first thing she saw was the only mountain at the east end of the village 800 meters away. She hadn't noticed it when she first arrived, but she didn't know until Mrs. Six told her that it was the hill assigned to her by the Gu family.

"Well, it has really been flooded. I heard people from the older generation mention it. About fifty years ago, there was a huge flood in the river, which submerged the entire east end of the village and even affected the middle of the village." The sixth wife looked at her.

Looking at the river, he sighed, "I heard that many people died in the east end of the village that time. It was also from that time that all the capable families in the village moved to the west of the village. It's really good over there, with high terrain and fertile fields...

But we have to find some way. Unless she doesn't live here, otherwise, it's too unsafe.

Qi Qi secretly decided to walk around the east end of the village several times every morning and evening in order to familiarize herself with the environment and exercise her body.

Qi Qi carried her tired body back to the sixth wife's house, and immediately sat down to rest. She was tired after walking around for so long with a big belly. It seemed that her body was very weak and she needed to exercise hard, otherwise she would have to give birth to a child.

If you don't have the strength, then you will suffer.

As for the embankment you mentioned, villagers go there every year to do labor work, but it is a pity that it is to build river embankments and open new rivers. Let’s not think about it here. It is impossible to build river embankments. After all, the terrain here is lower than ours.

"

"Xiao Dezi, don't be so stingy. We are just two grasshoppers on the same rope now."

"Okay, okay, I don't know how to adapt, Luo Li is such an old-fashioned person." Qi Qi muttered and quickly interrupted his chatter.

The further we walked toward the river, the heavier my heart became.

"Grandma Six, what is that?" Qi Qi felt that this was very familiar, but couldn't remember it for a moment, so she asked Grandma Six.

If you can't remember it, just forget it. There will always be a time when you can find out, isn't it just three hundred merit points, it's trivial.

Qi Qi looked into the distance. The water level of the river was only a hundred meters away from the field. At a glance, he saw a cliff on the other side. The water on the river was very fast...

At noon, Mrs. Liu made a pot of fish soup with the fish Tian Wazi brought back. Qi Qi was not polite and had a delicious meal.

Qi Qi looked at the big leaves covering the entire pond. The more he looked at them, the more familiar they became, so he secretly asked the system, "Xiao Dezi, do you know what that is?"

Also, these five acres of land must be planted, because the court has regulations that fertile land must be cultivated and cannot be abandoned without reason. If you are caught, you will be punished. This was promulgated when the new dynasty was first established and all wastes were waiting to be revived.

The decree has been used to this day.

"No, you can't open the back door. If you are investigated by the pickets, your merit points will be deducted and punished." The merit system ruthlessly advised, "Don't think about opportunism. Only the merit points earned by doing good deeds through your own efforts are valuable.

…”

I've seen the old house before, and the bamboo forest behind the house is quite dense. It looks like I won't have to worry about eating the bamboo shoots in spring.

Alas, her family property now seems to be just a pile of junk and worthless. No wonder Mrs. Gu can share it with her.

The fields near the river are almost completely ruined. The soil in the fields is covered with sand and the soil quality is extremely poor. How can such a field have a good harvest?

Putting this section aside, Qi Qi followed Mrs. Liu to the fields near the river.

Qi Qi was thinking about going to the village chief's house tomorrow.

Qi Qi frowned, "The east end of the village is about to turn into a river beach. Without a dam, it is too unsafe. When will there be a huge flood that will flood the entire east end of the village?"

"Spring plowing is in less than a month. Hey, if the Daqing family no longer rents this land this year, and you are pregnant, what should you do..." The sixth wife said with emotion, "This place used to be

It's a pity that this fertile field was so close to the river that it was ruined."

That's right, it's a pile of rocks, with very little vegetation on it.

Qi Qi nodded in agreement after hearing this. After looking around, she knew it was impossible.

The small pool in front of the house, hey, why do the leaves floating on the water look so familiar? Lotus leaves? It doesn’t look like it, it looks like a very huge millstone, and there seems to be sharp thorns growing on the back...

At the east end of the village is a U-shaped depression, with the river opening at its opening.

It was early spring in February, and other hills were already green, but her hilltop was still bare.

In fact, it's not really a mountain. It's just that the rest of the terrain in East Village is too low, which makes this pile of stones appear to be a little higher.

I don’t know what the ancestors of the Gu family thought that they would buy this useless mountain?

However, I wonder if a new house can be built on the vacant land at the foot of the mountain?

"There is no such thing as a free lunch, you are overthinking it." The system snorted coldly.

"There are ten volumes in total of the Encyclopedia of Plants, with three hundred merit points." The system said coldly and ruthlessly, "You can't afford to replace it."

This fish is really good, it looks like river fish, the meat is delicate and delicious, but the seasonings at home are a little lacking, and the fishy smell is a bit stronger, but for people who can't eat meat all year round, this is already delicious.

I took a nap in the afternoon. Maybe I was too tired, so I slept until the sun went down.

She didn't wake up until she heard the excited voices of the little flowers in the yard.

She quickly got up, opened the door and went out, and sure enough she saw a lot of things placed in the yard, all of which she asked her to buy.
