After being widowed, I pampered the rough man general by farming

Chapter 172: Accidentally dug through the blocked official road

Zhu Jiangjiang followed the workers of the shrimp pond, brandished a hoe in the rain, and dug several trenches on the official road at the same time, preparing to drain the water from the shrimp pond to the opposite side.

Although this official road has been abandoned for many years, it is an official road after all, and the road is very wide. It took them a long time to dig to the opposite side.

"Sister Zhu, come and see!"

Shin Min has not been in the crowd since the time the ditch was dug just now.

She didn't know where she went, but when she came back, she brought good news to Zhu Jiangjiang.

"The road ahead is not blocked, it can be passed!" Shen Min pointed to the blocked place of the official road, and shouted in Zhu Jiangjiang's ear.

Zhu Jiangjiang looked at Shen Min suspiciously, went forward, and turned over the weeds in front of him with a hoe.

She saw a dark hole under the grass on the road that she thought was blocked, looked carefully along the front and back of the hole, and found that it was originally an agricultural water canal.

This blocked road section was caused by mudslides and landslides on the nearby mountain.

Dirt and trees piled up on the road, and the government office and nearby villagers thought that there were stones under the pile of blocked things, which would be difficult to remove, so they simply ignored it.

This led to the abandonment of this official road.

Now that he saw the black hole that kept pouring in rainwater, Zhu Jiangjiang was basically sure that the canal was not blocked, and there must be trees or stones blocking the soil.

At that moment, she made a decision.

"Dashan, dig the ditch this way!"

Zhu Jiangjiang directly asked the ditch diggers to dig the ditch to the side of the black hole, and by the way, block the place where the canal is connected to the farmland with stones.

Make sure that all the rainwater from the shrimp pond will flow into this black hole for a while.

Although I don't know if she will do what she guessed, but everyone still dug the ditch here.

Several ditches were merged into one at the end. After the water flowed here, the impact force became stronger, and the weeds and soil at the entrance of the cave were washed away.

After a while, a scene that surprised everyone appeared.

I saw that the hole was getting bigger and bigger, and the soil, branches, weeds and other things beside the hole were gradually washed away.

The original appearance of the canal was gradually revealed, separating the mountain from the landslide blocking the road.

Zhu Jiangjiang walked down the washed-out road, less than a mile away, and the second half of the road appeared in front of him.

It turns out that this is not the end of the official road, there is still a long, long road behind, and there is also a large open field, this is a new world she has never seen before.

"Wow! The back of this road is bigger than Xiaohuang Village!"

Shen Min also followed, and she was also very shocked by the empty field in front of her.

There was an older man in the shrimp pond who was familiar with the neighborhood, and he said, "This was originally a land rented by a rich man. I rented his land when I was young. Why is no one planting it now?" Woolen cloth?"

Anyway, behind this is the land of the rich man's family. After the official road was blocked, people in the nearby villages stopped paying attention to the rich man's family.

It's just that I didn't expect that the official path had been abandoned for less than five or six years, and this situation changed after that.

"The rich man's family?" Zhu Jiangjiang's eyes widened, shocked, "So big?!"

If her shrimp pond has a thousand mu of land, then the rich man's family has tens of thousands of mu of land.

She was very curious about the identity of the rich man, and also curious about what happened to the rich man's family, who left the 1 mu of land and left.

And looking at the weeds in these fields, it should have been deserted for less than three years, and there is still time to replant them now.

While Zhu Jiangjiang sighed, he turned around and scanned his surroundings.

In fact, as long as the blocked section of the road is cleared, this official road can continue to be used, and the fields behind can also be irrigated. That is a large piece of high-quality farmland!

For this large piece of farmland, Zhu Jiangjiang and Shen Min walked in the rain for half a day, and finally found the place where the long-term laborer of the rich man's family lived.

"It seems that this rich man is really rich. The place where the long-term workers live is like a small village." Shen Min sighed.

She has lived in the city since she was a child, and she has never seen such a large area of ​​farmland. It is an eye-opener for her.

She was not the only one who opened her eyes, Zhu Jiangjiang was also very shocked.

The collapsed houses in front of me consisted of more than [-] households, almost like a small village, but according to what the worker just said, it is very likely that this is only the place where the long-term workers of the rich man's family lived.

There are more than 20 households with long-term workers in the family, and the rich man must be even richer.

"what!"

Shen Min didn't know what he saw, so he hid behind Zhu Jiangjiang in fright, pointed in one direction and shouted tremblingly: "Sister Zhu, there are bones there."

bone?

Zhu Jiangjiang looked in the direction Shen Min pointed, and he really saw a half-revealed skeleton after being washed by the rain.

There was a thump in her heart, and she was also frightened.

"Shen Min, let's go back first and let the people in the yamen take a look."

There may have been some serious crimes here, if so, then this is the scene of the crime, and they should not stay for a long time.

The two turned around and Shin-min screamed and ran.

But looking at her expression, she didn't seem to be out of fear, but more out of...excitement?

Zhu Jiangjiang didn't understand, anyway, she had lingering fears.

Shen Min took the initiative to apply for Ying, and was frightened and asked to ride a horse to the city to report the crime, which made Zhu Jiangjiang feel that she was bold.

"Then you go and come back quickly, I will ask your second brother to cook ginger soup for you and wait for you."

The matter of the shrimp pond was resolved, Zhu Jiangjiang asked the workers of the shrimp pond to come to the unopened restaurant, and asked Shen Xiao to cook ginger soup for them to go to the cold.

By the way, taking advantage of the rain and being unable to work, let Shen Xiao prepare a few dishes for everyone to taste.

"You don't have to work and you can eat new dishes. What a great host!"

The workers in the shrimp pond are looking forward to it.

They lived over the shrimp pond, Zhu Jiangjiang gave them rice and vegetables, and let them cook for themselves.

But because most of the people who came to work in the shrimp pond were old men who hadn't settled down, cooking wasn't something they were good at, so they haven't had a serious meal for a long time.

Not only did they not have to work for half a day today, but the chef also cooked for them. Everyone was very happy.

Shen Tan also stays here in Xiaohuang Village these days, practicing on his own the menu that Zhu Jiangjiang wrote for him. Sometimes he also goes to the academy cafeteria to help out and learn how to cook vegetables that he has never seen before.

He was a bit lonely by himself, but fortunately he still had his older brother and younger sister, and Shen Tan was able to visit him after school.

Not to mention Shen Min, she rode a horse every day, running back and forth in the shrimp pond, Xiaohuang village, school, and factory.

Sometimes she would pass by the restaurant several times a day, and every time she would immediately yell at him.

But many times, by the time he came out of the kitchen, she had already run away.
