Make a fortune by farming in another world

Chapter 42

It was Yu Zhou who was carrying the basket of waterweeds, but the aunts looked at Chen Feng and asked, "Are you going to the river to pull waterweeds?"

"Yes." Chen Feng replied calmly.

There was nothing to hide about them pulling waterweeds. Not to mention that they had to carry all the soil from the back mountain to dig the pond. If the villagers were a little more careful, they would know that Yu Zhou's family had dug a pond in the backyard. It is estimated that everyone in the village has known about it by now.

And they had to carry the waterweeds back after pulling them, and everyone could see it.

Little did they know that the aunt who asked this question was just trying to stir up trouble. Most of the villagers lived in poverty, and it was good to see meat once a month. However, Yu Zhou's family went to the village with a fish pond to buy fish every three or five days. It is conceivable that if they went to the town, they would definitely buy a lot of meat.

If it was someone else in the village who had such good food, it would be better, but it happened to Yu Zhou, who was the poorest in the village and could hardly even afford to eat. Everyone would easily feel jealous and wonder why.

But no one dared to do anything to Yu Zhou. As early as when a woman in the village pointed fingers at Jinchuan for buying fish, the wife of the head of the village had warned everyone that Yu Zhou would take the county exam in the future to bring honor to his family. If anyone disturbed his studies, the head of the village would not let him go easily.

Few people in the village thought that Yu Zhou could really pass the exam to become a student or a scholar, but no one dared to disobey the head of the village.

So they pointed the spearhead at Chen Feng, who often went with Yu Zhou.

After getting Chen Feng's affirmative answer, the aunt laughed contemptuously again: "You are so clinging to others like a tail, will they give you a fish if they raise fish?"

"Aunt, what you said is unreasonable," Chen Feng sneered, "They raise fish themselves, they can give it to you if they want, and they won't give it to you if they don't want to. But aunt, you care about me so much, is it because you see that I have no fish to eat, and you plan to give me a few?"

The woman rolled her eyes, "Why should I give you fish?"

"Then why should Yu Zhou give me fish?" Chen Fenglu curled her lips, turned back and called Yu Zhou and Jinchuan, "Let's go, you go pull water plants, I'll go swimming."

Yu Zhou saw that his fighting power did not need help, so he nodded.

The three of them walked a few steps, and Chen Feng turned around and said to the aunt who had just spoken: "By the way, I don't know if I can get fish to eat, but you definitely won't get a share, aunt."

After saying that, he bared his teeth like a prank.

Yu Zhou laughed: "Your mother will see you like this, be careful of being scolded."

"Don't worry, my mother will never say anything to me about dealing with these people." Chen Feng shrugged.

Yu Zhou also didn't like the aunt who just spoke. He often got together with Aunt Gui, and the two of them were not easy to get along with.

After the three of them walked to the river, Chen Feng continued to walk downstream, while Yu Zhou took off his shoes and went to the river to pull water plants.

Jinchuan was guarding Yu Zhou's shoes and the basket used to hold water plants on the shore.

In addition to the two of them, there were more than ten children swimming in this section of the river. They were all between seven or eight years old and eleven or twelve years old. The older ones would go downstream like Chen Feng to avoid suspicion because the aunts would come here to fetch water for the vegetables.
