In her memory, every time they were busy with farming, her family would be much more haggard and tired. However, this time, not only did the Ning Family not run out of stamina, but they also gained some weight. Ning Erlang grew much taller, while Xiaoxiao’s cheeks went from shriveled to full and her face became much rosier.
She did not forget to dig into her space every day when she cooked delicious food. With her tireless efforts, she could earn an average of 300 points a day. After more than 20 days, the current points balance in the gourmet space had reached 6,000 points. This was under the premise that she had exchanged for another set of rice seeds and a set of wheat seeds and often fished for prawns.
Both she and the space were quite happy with this development speed.
The villagers were envious and impressed when they saw the changes in the Ning Family. It was impossible for them to live like this if they were not diligent. Compared to before they split up, the eldest branch finally had a happy ending.
However, at the thought of this, everyone could not help but compare them to the group of people in the old residence.
The old residence also had fields. In the past, before the Ning Family split up, the Ning Family’s land was the benchmark of the entire village every time they were busy with farming. It was planted quickly and well, and the harvest was also top-notch. Who wouldn’t praise that kind of farmer when they saw the fields?
But now, looking at the bumpy and crooked seedlings, which were long, short, tall, and short. It was obvious that they had changed their planting style. What did it mean? They had changed their farmers.
Back then, Old Sir Ning praised his second son for being capable, good at business, and good at farming. Now, it seemed that he was not telling the truth.
It was said that his second son was doing business outside, but they had never seen him bring anything good home all these years. He was actually jealous of his eldest brother’s good life.
As for farming, it was obvious to all. Look at what the old residence without Ning Fengnian was like.
The villagers’ gazes were like knives on the backs of everyone in the old residence, making them grit their teeth and unable to refute.
When they found out that Ning Fengnian’s paddy field had caught up to them and was planted better than theirs, they were simply overwhelmed with jealousy. They wanted to talk to Ning Fengnian and trick him into working for them, but they realized that Ning Fengnian left when he saw the people from the second branch and ignored them. It was not easy for them to stop him, but this easy-going honest person suddenly changed his mind. He said that he could not handle it and could not help.
Second Uncle Ning gritted his teeth. What did he mean by “too busy”? He was clearly unwilling to contribute!
That afternoon, on the way to the river to fish, Xiaoxiao heard Second Aunt Ning nagging about the eldest branch in front of a group of gossipy old women. “What do you know? My big brother’s farming is just so-so. He’s just taking advantage of others these few days.”
Xiaoxiao hugged her fishing rod and stopped. She leaned against the tree and listened to what she could make up.
Second Aunt Ning said mysteriously, “You guys know his neighbor, right? He’s Zhao Hu’s nephew. Haven’t the two families been quite close recently?”
“My sister-in-law is such a smart person. How can she give benefits to others for nothing? She must have a motive for treating them so well.”
Her expression was too vivid, and her tone was too gossipy. She finally succeeded in attracting the attention of these women. “What do you mean?”
Second Aunt Ning twisted her bucket waist. She pretended to cover her mouth, but her voice was even louder. “It’s all because of those young and strong men from the Zhao Family.”
Xiaoxiao’s expression turned cold.
Second Aunt Ning added, “She doesn’t have the fortune to do it herself. Doesn’t she still have a girl?”
Xiaoxiao stood between a few trees. She was dressed simply and the color of her clothes happened to merge with the tree trunk, so no one noticed her. Second Aunt Ning became more and more enthusiastic as she spoke. “There are so many men next door who are single. My sister-in-law must have some thoughts. There’s a little girl at home who’s worried that she can’t get married…”
Xiaoxiao narrowed her eyes and was about to walk out when she heard a cold voice interrupt Second Aunt Ning.. “If someone wanted a wife as ugly as you, why would a bright, sincere, and diligent girl like Ning Xiaoxiao worry about not being married?”
