Fortune
When Wang Wulang saw the pile in front of him, he rubbed his eyes a few times before confirming that he was not mistaken. “Little Sister Ah Yu, where did you get this?”
Little Ah Yu said, “I planted it!” She was the one who planted it anyway. She even watered it every day!
Wang Wulang was only 10 years old this year. He thought quickly, but not very quickly.
He only felt that this matter was very mysterious, but he definitely had to tell the adults.
“Let’s go and tell Grandma to come over and take a look.”
Wang Wulang’s principle was: If you encounter a problem, look for the adults.
The Wang family was busy cleaning the canal. A collapsed small house blocked the canal, so they had to clear it as soon as possible.
Village Chief Hu had been extremely busy these two days. Also, the matter at Shanyang Village had not been completely resolved. He was still worried.
After so many things happened, he forgot that the person he had saved in the village had gone to Shanyang Village and fought with them. When he returned, he was in a hurry to leave.
Before he left, he left a message for everyone, saying that he would not forget this life-saving grace.
Village Chief Hu found Old man Wang and took out a piece of jade from his pocket. He handed it over and said, “De wang, this was left behind by that young man and he asked me to give it to your Ah Yu. He remembers Ah Yu’s life-saving grace. Take this as a token. When you look for him in the future, he will help.”
Old man Wang waved his hand. “That won’t do. This thing is obviously precious. How can we farmers take this!”
Old man Wang still felt that although it was Ah Yu who saved the man, the ones who really saved him were the other guys in the village. Ah Yu had only told everyone that there was someone in the crack between the rocks. It was not such a huge favor.
Receiving this jade would only attract jealousy!
“What’s hers is hers. Grandfather and the others also agreed to this matter.” Village Chief Hu stuffed the item into Old man Wang’s hands and said in a low voice, “Although our Hu Family Village is poor, our backbone is still there. This time, your Ah Yu has made a great contribution. It’s just that the village has suffered a great disaster recently. Everyone is busy surviving. It’s not that we don’t want to repay the favor, but we just don’t have the time.”
“This…”
“You’ve been here for more than ten years, so you should know what our village is like. Ah Yu is a good child. Take good care of her. If you can’t afford to raise her anymore, the village will help take care of her. This is also what a few representatives from the village came to tell me last night. Everyone remembers Ah Yu’s kindness. She deserves this. No one will become greedy of her over such a thing.”
It was a ring-shaped jade pendant. It did not have any shape. Other than a small flower, there was nothing carved on it. The jade color was not good. It could only be sold for three to five taels of silver in town.
If it was 300 to 500 taels, people might still be tempted.
Old man Wang did not know what to say. Old Madam Wang appeared out of nowhere and snatched it over, holding it in her hand.
“This should belong to our Ah Yu!” Old Madam Wang knocked on the jade and said lightly, “Is this all that’s worth saving his life? That person’s life is really cheap!”
Village Chief Hu repeated that person’s words and only said that he treated it as a token.
“Alright, alright, what token? We don’t even know his name, and where he is, where can we go to find him? What can we do even if he wants to break his promise!” Old Madam Wang rolled her eyes. “Who is he fooling!”
Village Chief Hu: “…” That seemed to make sense.
Old man Wang was about to say something when he saw Wang Wulang running over in a hurry. Behind him was Little Ah Yu. Her arms and legs were swinging quickly as she imitated her brother and ran with her legs wide open.
“Grandpa, Grandma! Little Sister has grown beans. There are so many beans!” Wang Silang shouted when he saw Old man Wang and the others.
Village Chief Hu was still in a daze when Old Madam Wang rushed over and picked up Little Ah Yu, who had run over and could not stop.
Little Ah Yu pulled her head out of her arms and chuckled at Old Madam Wang. Her face was red from running and she was panting.
“Grandma!” Little Ah Yu shouted sweetly.
“Hey!” Old Madam Wang took out a handkerchief and wiped her sweat. “Slow down.”
Beside her, Wang Chuanman had just wiped his hands clean and wanted to hug Little Ah Yu. But Old Madam Wang had already picked her up and turned around to walk towards Wang Wulang.
“What are you making a fuss about every day? If you want to scare your grandma to death, let your grandpa find you a new grandma! Don’t run around like a wild boar every day. The Monkey King should give up his position for you!”
Wang Wulang pointed at Little Ah Yu. “Sister Ah Yu was running too!”
“It must be you who led her astray!” Old Madam Wang kicked Wang Wulang’s butt lightly and asked with her chin raised, “What did you say just now? What beans did she plant?”
“It’s at the back of the house. Sister Ah Yu planted it. Let’s go take a look. There are so many of them!”
Village Chief Hu originally wanted to go back after delivering the item. When he heard this, he felt that it was a child’s joke. It was probably some wild fruit.
It was spring, and the plants looked different every day. Some of them secretly grew in the snow, but it was not like there were none.
However, he could not help but follow them to the back of Old man Wang’s house.
Old man Wang walked in front with a hoe in his hand. Wang Wulang jumped and pushed aside the grass in front.
He pulled them to a relatively hidden corner and they saw a large row of soybean vines on the ground.
The soybean plant was actually not a vine, but a small tree. However, this soybean plant looked different. Every branch was very long and meandered like a vine. When pulled apart, it was probably more than half a foot long.
It was filled with green pods. From the looks of it, there was probably a lot of harvest on each vine.
Such a thing actually grew beside the back of the house. They did not even notice it!
Everyone was a farmer. When they saw this scene, how could they stand still? Old man Wang and Village Chief Hu stepped forward together and each picked a bean pod. When they peeled it open, green soybeans rolled out.
All of them were round and plump, comparable to broad beans!
On one stalk, there were countless bean pods like this.
Cough, it was because he couldn’t count.
“Heavens, this stalk alone probably has 10 catties of soybeans!” Village Chief Hu’s hands were trembling.
At this moment, Wang Chuanman said faintly, “Soybeans? Aren’t they supposed to only turn yellow in October?”
It was only early spring now, but the soybean stalks had already grown so well.
There were still ten months before October!
Everyone subconsciously looked at the ignorant Little Ah Yu.
Ah Yu blinked and tilted her head. “Daddy, Grandpa, don’t you like to eat beans?”
The elf said that this bean was delicious and could be used to make many things.
—The soybeans started growing at this time because of her?
Was she really a godsend?
A child picked up from the snow…
Old Madam Wang looked at Village Chief Hu faintly, making him tremble.
Village Chief Hu’s face twitched. “…De, De Wang’s wife, why are you looking at me like that?”
Why did it look like she wanted to silence him?
