231 The Liu Family Comes to Help
Meatball tried its best to return to Little Ah Yu’s side as soon as possible.
Little Ah Yu was also working hard to train her ability. On the one hand, she was a little afraid of being abandoned by the elf, and on the other hand, she was looking forward to the elf’s return.
“I want to grow up quickly. I want to do many things.” When the elf returned, it would definitely be very happy to see her grow up again, right?
Ah Yu was not lazy!
Before midnight could come, the villagers woke up one after another and went to work in the fields.
Fortunately, it did not rain at night. The stars filled the night sky, and the moon at the beginning of the month was almost invisible. They could only vaguely see the roads in the village.
As usual, Old Madam Wang made arrangements for the family and went to the village chief’s house alone.
The village chief also had to take to the fields. As soon as he went out, he met Old Madam Wang.
“Madam Wang, what’s the matter?” Village Chief Hu handed the shoulder pole in his hand to his son beside him and hurriedly went forward to greet Old Madam Wang.
Old Madam Wang: “Village Chief, don’t neglect your land at home. Let the others do the work first. It’s not an important matter.”
The others did not think too much about it and immediately left with the farming tools.
After everyone left, Old Madam Wang told him about the waterfall.
Village Chief Hu: “What?! There’s-”
Wasn’t this a big deal?!!
Their village had once produced a great general. This was also what Village Chief Hu had heard from the older generation. However, it was only passed down by word of mouth. There were no clear records in the village’s books.
It was mainly because they did not find anything related to the general.
Village Chief Hu only treated it as a gimmick in the village. For example, when people of Shanyang Village came to cause trouble previously, the mentioning of the Great General helped to boost their confidence.
Old Madam Wang said, “In any case, the tomb is there. It’s not like it can just disappear. Let’s hurry up and harvest the crops in the next few days. It won’t be too late to take a look when we’re free.”
Village Chief Hu thought about it and felt that it made sense.
The most important thing now was to harvest the crops in the village.
They could not delay any longer.
Otherwise, once this rain became regular, it would continue for more than half a month. If their crops were not stored in time, they would suffer a huge loss.
“That’s what happened. In the end, our family doesn’t have much to do with that tomb. You don’t have to ask for our opinion on how to deal with it in the future. Just pretend that we don’t know.” After Old Madam Wang finished speaking, she didn’t intend to exchange any more pleasantries with Village Chief Hu.
Village Chief Hu went to look for Old Master Hu, Elder Ma, and the others and roughly explained this matter.
Old Master Hu felt that they should hurry up and take a look.
“Regardless of whether it’s true or not, we have to verify it. I’m worried that complications might arise if we delay.”
Elder Ma and Old Madam Wang had the same opinion.
“In any case, no one else knows about this tomb. After so many years, we didn’t know anything about it but didn’t we manage to live just fine? It’s the busy harvest season now. It’s better to take things slow first. Even if there’s anything there, it won’t be too late to talk about it after the harvest is done.”
Harvesting crops was the most important thing.
In the end, they decided to harvest the crops as soon as possible before slowly dealing with this matter.
Old Master Hu and the others were old and did not have to do anything in the fields. Hence, they could calm down and discuss how to deal with everything later.
As expected, Chi Tu and the others kept their promise. They arrived at Hu Family Village at dawn the next day and actually came together with Old Liu.
This time, not only were Old Liu and his two sons here, but his two daughters-in-law were also here.
His two daughters-in-law were good at working as they worked in the fields all year round and were especially agile.
Madam Yang, the eldest daughter-in-law, smiled brightly and said to the uneasy Liu Shi, “We’ve finished harvesting all the crops at home, so we wanted to help you.”
Because they had been briefed by Old Liu already, the two daughters-in-law did not have any abnormal thoughts about the Wang family’s land.
The harvested crops had to be completely stored in the granary before it could be considered complete.
With the help of more people, the Wang Family, despite having the most land, was actually the first family to finish harvesting their crops.
After Old man Wang’s family finished harvesting, they rushed to help the other villagers.
After everyone was done, Old man Wang’s family held a banquet. It was mainly to officially thank and introduce Old Liu’s family.
On the day Old man Wang’s family invited the guests, Murong Run, who was far away in Tonghua County, suddenly received a gilded invitation.
