Chapter 662: My Hands Are Stained with Blood
Zhou Guo laughed, "I'm not afraid. It's not me who shamelessly goes to someone else's house and forces them to marry their daughter. It's not me who takes advantage of others' power to show off and bully their orphans and widows. Even if God wants to strike me, it won't strike me. You, the rest of you, are the ones who deserve it the most."
She stood up and stuck the stick into the ground.
Everyone stared in amazement as they saw that the ten-foot-long wooden stick still had half a foot left exposed.
She said: "Maybe everyone thinks that my uncle is not at home, and that we are easy to bully as an orphan and a widow. But everyone is wrong. Without some skills, how can an orphan and a widow live a better life?
My mother is easy to talk to and treats you well, but that doesn't mean I am easy to talk to. If I get angry, I can do anything. You know, everyone who has escaped here has seen a few dead bodies, and everyone has blood on their hands. "
She has taken the lives of at least dozens of people, and the aura of anyone who has killed someone is more or less different from that of an ordinary person.
At this moment, the murderous intent was aroused and the aura was released. Every one in the group of people was frightened and they could even smell a faint smell of blood.
The old lady holding her tooth on the ground didn't dare to say a word.
"Well, well, that's them, come on, beat them out!"
Zhou Guo looked over and saw Wang Fugui leading a group of villagers running towards their house. It was really a group of people, a huge crowd.
Everyone was holding a hoe or a stick, looking aggressive.
The group of people retreated back in fear.
A group of people ran up to him. After taking a few breaths, Wang Fugui put his hands behind his back and said coldly, "It's you. You come to my house every now and then to force me to get married, right? You come every day even though I don't want to? Bah, don't you look at your own character? You want to be the most promising son of someone else's family and marry a general? If there is no mirror at home, don't you pee?"
"That's right. Even if you line up to be the general's wife, your family can't get in. We are still lining up in our own village, and you have to line up behind us. Get out of here. You have no chance to be the general's wife. You are just a pheasant and want to become a phoenix. What a wishful thinking!!"
There was an elderly person in the crowd opposite, who was angry and embarrassed, but seeing so many people, he still plucked up the courage to say: "You, you, you, you are all pheasants, you are all pheasants, who is laughing at you?"
"Humph, we are wild chickens, but we are not so shameless. Look at what you have done. Later, we will beat gongs and drums and go around the villages to see who dares to marry your daughter. No one can afford to be embarrassed! ”
Wang Fugui said, "Don't waste your time talking to them. Are you going to leave or not? If not, we will not be polite to you."
"Why are you saying so much to them, folks? The bullies have come to your doorstep, go ahead and beat them up!!"
The people on the other side scattered in a panic, even the old lady with missing teeth stumbled away.
Zhou Guo's ears were finally at peace.
Li, Zhou Xing and the old man were originally watching the situation behind the door, but now that everyone they met had left, they all came out.
Wang Fugui was surprised and asked, "You are all here?"
Zhou Guo smiled and said, "Yes, I told them not to come out. Uncle Fugui, what are you doing?"
Pointed at the villagers.
Wang Fugui said, "Hey, I originally wanted to discuss something with you, but I didn't expect to see a lot of people gathered at the door of my house from a distance. I could tell at a glance that they were not good people, so I went to the village to look for them. It happened that everyone was working in the fields, so they all came when I called them."
Li said, "Thank you so much for today, everyone. Sorry for bothering you."
"Hey, why are you thanking me when we're from the same village? I've long been fed up with these people. They seem to have nothing to do all day. They come to people's homes every day to force them to get married. It's not decent."
"If they come again next time, just shout across the river and we will come over. Who is afraid of whom? There are more than 60 or 70 households and hundreds of people in our village. Are we afraid of them?"
After talking for a while, everyone went back. After all, there was still work to do in the fields and they couldn't delay any longer.
Wang Fugui and a few others stayed.
Ask Li, "What are you thinking? Should you find a wife for Da Cang? It would be embarrassing if you don't. Zhou Gu and Zhou Xing are both settled, but he, as your uncle, hasn't even sent a letter. How do you want outsiders to see him?"
Li said, "How could I not know? But the child has to be willing. If he is not willing, I can still find him a wife on my own initiative. Who will bear his anger then? Me or you?"
Zhou Sanyuan and the others shook their heads repeatedly, "No, no, we can't do that."
Who can withstand Zhou Dacang's anger? That guy was powerful before, and now he is a general. I don't know how many people he has killed. They can't afford to offend him.
Li said, "That's it, let him decide on his own. He is a general, so how can he not find a wife? I don't know how many people are willing to throw themselves at him. We don't need to worry."
After thinking about this, everyone felt relieved. Zhou Dacang is no longer a village man now. He is different from them.
Not long after, Wang Fugui and his group also left.
There were only one family member left in the house. Zhou Guo took a ladle and watered the strawberry plants in the corridor. They would bloom and bear fruit in more than a month. It seemed that he might be able to eat the strawberries he grew himself before winter.
The old man stood with his hands behind his back and looked at them one by one, "I don't know when those cherry loquat trees will bear fruit."
Zhou Guo said: "That will take more than ten years."
After the strawberries have borne fruit, the wheat in the fields has begun to be harvested.
The Zhou family had only more than ten acres of wheat and a large labor force, so they harvested all the grain from the fields in less than a day.
This year's wheat is better than in previous years, mainly because of sufficient fertilizer, deep plowing, enough manpower, enough watering, and proper care. More than ten acres of land yielded more than 4,700 kilograms, with a grain yield of almost three stone and eight dou per acre!
You know, even the most skilled farmer in the village can only produce 3.2 stones of grain per mu of the best land, and that's because more fertilizer was applied this year.
In previous years, the amount was less than three shi, and the most was two shi and eight dou.
As soon as the Zhou family’s grain production came out, villagers came to their door to ask for a change of grain seeds.
In the past two years, more than 20 families in the village have started to grow rice. They all got the seeds from his house. Since they didn't know how to grow them, they didn't plant much, but last year the family with the highest yield harvested nearly 2.7 shi (100 g) of rice from more than one acre of land!
That land was not the best in the family, there was no fertilizer, and it was not suitable for growing crops. However, it was much more profitable than growing wheat because the Zhou family's seeds were good.
The same is true for rice seeds, and wheat seeds are also being watched by the villagers.
Zhou Guo did not refuse. Although there was not much food, it could still be exchanged for seeds.
These wheat varieties were also carefully selected and bred by her over the past two years.
But it is still not as good as rice. If you want wheat to grow well, you need good seeds. She decided to do the same as rice and select two acres of land next year for breeding.
