311 Hand Over the Secret Technique
After Little Ah Yu fell asleep, the Wang family was not idle. Wang Dalang quickly sought Old Madam Wang’s opinion.
Wang Dalang was a little surprised to find that his Grandma was dissatisfied with both of the girls.
He remembered that his mother had said that when the other aunts married into the family, his Grandma did not raise any objections. It was as if as long as they were willing to marry into the family, it was fine.
“Dalang, there are many girls from good families. Everything your Grandma does and says are backed with good reason. She’s never wrong about people.” Wang Chuanfu was afraid that Wang Dalang would have thoughts, so he went to comfort him.
Wang Dalang was only 16 years old. He only had a slight favorable impression of the girl from the Liang family. He did not have to marry her.
There was no need to mention any feelings of love.
Wang Dalang said, “Father, I know. The family has been busy recently, and I don’t want to think about this. It’s going to snow soon, and we don’t know if the fields will be affected. Why don’t we harvest the crops as soon as possible?”
“That’s true, but don’t worry about the fields. I’ll bring people to do it. First, get your house ready. With a house, it’ll be easier to find a wife in the future.”
In Wang Chuanfu’s opinion, even if their family had a house and shop in town, they still had land in the neighboring Great River Village.
However, those were all his parents’. There was also land reserved for his Fourth Brother and Ah Yu. Whether there was a share for his family, he did not need to think about it.
But Dalang’s house was a tangible asset that truly belonged to him. It was given to him by his Mother, so there was nothing to feel guilty about.
Wang Dalang had the same thoughts when he heard Wang Chuanfu tell him this from time to time.
“Father, I’ll go get busy first. Call me when Ah Yu wakes up.” After Wang Chuanfu finished speaking, he went to the construction area of the new house. Everyone was busy.
Old Madam Wang sold the grain seeds to the villagers at a higher price and then imparted the secret farming technique to everyone.
However, Old Madam Wang did not give the secret techniques to every family directly. Instead, she found Old Master Hu and Village Chief Hu and went straight to the point. “The things our Wang family grows are better than the other families’. I think you know that.”
Old Master Hu and Village Chief Hu looked at each other, not knowing what Old Madam Wang was up to.
Village Chief Hu said hesitantly, “Madam Wang, what do you want to say?”
“Our village depends on the heavens for food. In the past, before our Wang family became rich, we could only face the yellow soil with our backs to the sky.” At this point, Old Madam Wang changed the topic. “I won’t say anything else. We’ve all been together for 16 years. Farming techniques are directly related to everyone’s food, so I won’t hide it.”
Under Old Master Hu and Village Chief Hu’s attentive expressions, Old Madam Wang explained her conditions. “Our farming technique was actually passed down from my ancestors. We also lost most of it during those years when we fled the famine. We didn’t dare to use the farming techniques casually, afraid that we would be targeted by our former enemies. Now that we have Ah Yu, it’s equivalent to another layer of weakness. However, I also know that our Hu Family Village is filled with honest people. I don’t think they will do anything ungrateful.”
No wonder the Wang family had been so poor all these years, but Old Madam Wang was always calm and composed. It turned out that they really had the confidence to not starve to death.
Now that she saw that there was no threat and had seen the culture of Hu Family Village, she was willing to slowly reveal her secrets.
Had she been pretending all these years?
This old woman was indeed extraordinarily scheming.
Old Master Hu even felt that Old Madam Wang was definitely not an ordinary person!
Village Chief Hu’s mouth twitched. “Madam Wang, are you going to hand over your ancestral skills to the villagers?”
“Not to the villagers, but to you. The fewer people who know about these things, the better. It’s also good for them.”
