Chapter 181 I Thought It Was Haunted
Zheng Xinyue pretended not to understand and asked Zheng Dagui with a frown.
"The grass in the field died overnight, and the potato vines grew a lot taller."
Zheng Dagui frowned and said, it is impossible for them to grow so much in just one night?
"Isn't that bad?"
Zheng Xinyue smiled and looked at her father. What is there to be confused about? It is better for the potatoes to grow taller than to die, right?
"Yes! Very good."
Zheng Dagui saw his daughter's smile, and he also smiled.
But he was still very strange in his heart. He came to see it last night. The potato vines in the field were drooping as if they were hit by frost. They grew like crazy after not weeding for a few days, so he wanted to weed them in the morning, but encountered such a strange thing?
Fortunately, he did not believe in gods and monsters, otherwise he would think it was haunted?
Zheng Dagui was a person who did not like to make public. No matter how many doubts he had in his heart, he did not say a word after returning to the front yard.
After breakfast, the family went to work. Passing by the door of Chen's house, they saw Chen Sili and her parents, brother and sister-in-law walking out of the yard.
Because she had arranged a marriage with Zheng Chengbao, Chen Sili was embarrassed to come over and talk to Zheng Xinyue, and she dared not look at the tall and burly Zheng Chengbao. She kept her head down shyly while carrying a hoe.
"Brother, sister-in-law."
Zheng Dagui greeted Chen Sili's parents with a smile, and Gao Guilan also looked at her future daughter-in-law with a smile on her face, and she was more and more satisfied.
"Sister Sili."
Zheng Xinyue went over and took Chen Sili's arm, and greeted her with a smile.
"Xinyue."
Chen Sili was grateful to Zheng Xinyue. If it weren't for Xinyue's help behind the scenes to arrange her marriage with Zheng Chengbao, she would have become the topic of conversation for those old ladies in the village after dinner.
Wang Jinzhi walked behind with a haggard face, her bangs blocking the sinister look in her eyes. She regretted and hated last night.
What she regretted was that when Chen Shuli said bad things about Zheng Xinyue, she was too timid to speak up for Zheng Xinyue. If she had been bolder at that time, would Chen Sili be out of trouble now?
She hated Zheng Xinyue. She was trying to please her, but she only had Chen Sili in her eyes? She was just fighting with Chen Shuli, but she actually encouraged her parents to go to the Chen family to propose marriage?
Li Xiuqin was carrying a hoe with her head down. Seeing Chen Sili and Zheng Xinyue talking and laughing, she regretted not proposing to let Xiuhong marry earlier. She was also angry that her sister-in-law was nosy, but she only dared to complain in her heart.
The people in the village were working in groups of three or two, carrying hoes. Seeing the intimacy between the Chen and Zheng families, they knew that what Zheng Xinyue said in beets yesterday was true. Her family really proposed marriage to the Chen family.
"Members, gather at the entrance of the brigade."
The loud voice of the brigade leader Zheng Maoshan rang through the loudspeaker. The villagers who originally wanted to gather at the field all walked towards the brigade. Zheng Maoshan likes to hold meetings. Basically, he will give a lecture every three to five days. Everyone has gotten used to it. It's just right to do less work, and everyone is happy.
"Accountant Liu called the roll."
Zheng Maoshan stood at the entrance of the brigade with a sinister look on his face, holding a loudspeaker in one hand and one hand on his waist. Seeing that most of the members had arrived, he whispered to Accountant Liu beside him.
"What meeting?"
Gao Guilan asked Chen Sili's mother beside her with a smile, and glanced at her daughter beside her. If she had known that there would be a meeting, she would have given Xinyue a handful of melon seeds to save the child from being bored.
"I don't know."
Chen Sili's mother shook her head honestly. The brigade leader wanted to hold a meeting, so who would know what he was thinking?
"Gao Guilan, who told you to talk?"
