Chapter 198 Remedy
It was almost ten minutes after dinner that day, and Yunxia picked up her mother at the gate.

The mother who went to the farm for a day was exhausted, and when she got home, she was so tired that she leaned on the soft chair to rest.

Yunxia directed Xiuzhu to bring a pot of hot water for her mother to wash her face, and Ziman went to prepare a cup of lukewarm water and handed it over. After washing her face, her mother drank the water and felt relieved.

"Xia'er, it's a good thing Mother brought Qingxi there, otherwise we would have missed the opportunity to plant corn this year, and we would have suffered a lot." Putting down the water glass, her mother told Yunxia about the important event.

Yunxia, ​​who was helping her mother squeeze her shoulders and back, hurriedly asked what was going on.

My mother started from the beginning and told her exactly what happened.

It turned out that the last time the wheat was sick and the seedlings fell in the farm, all the wheat was removed and corn was replanted.

When dealing with wheat seedlings, the seedlings have grown up and are gratifyingly green.It was about to enter a period of rapid growth, but suffered from wheat blast again.

Speaking of this, Zhuangtou kept sighing in front of his mother.He said that he just went out for a long trip, and he never thought that when he came back, he would lose sight of the hard-planted wheat seedlings, and he was very depressed.

Yunxia interjected in surprise: "Mother, you mean Zhuangtou wasn't around when this happened?"

"Yes, Zhuangtou has gone out."

"Then who said that the wheat was infected? And who ordered to cut off all the wheat seedlings?"

No, with her keen intuition, Yunxia realized that there was a problem, and the problem was not small.

"Zhuangtou said that it was discovered by an old man in the farm. He is an expert in this field. Thanks to him discovering it in time, Zhuangtou's wife organized everyone to clean it up in time and replanted corn." mother answered.

Frowning Yunxia felt a little bit in her heart, Zhuangtou's wife?Although her contact time is very short, Yunxia doesn't have a good impression of her.The man spoke harshly and looked at people with uncomfortable eyes. Coupled with Zhuangtou's nephew's evaluation of her, Yunxia disliked her very much.

While Zhuangtou was out, she jumped out and instructed everyone to change the species, which always felt a little weird.Thinking of this, Yunxia asked her mother: "That is to say, Zhuangtou didn't participate in this whole process?"

Mother nodded.

"Mother, go on, what did Qingxi find?" Touching her chin, Yunxia anxiously asked.

It is necessary to clarify the cause and effect of this matter as soon as possible.

"Qingxi said that there might be something wrong with the corn seeds."

This sentence suddenly awakened Yunxia, ​​it turned out that Zhuangtou's wife did this.

"Mother, I'll ask Xiuzhu to call Qingxi here, and I'll ask him in person." Yunxia got up and said to her mother, walking towards the door.

"Xiuzhu, Xiuzhu." She called out.

Xiu Zhu, who was helping in the kitchen, came cheerfully, saluted Mrs. and Miss one by one, and asked, "Miss, what do you want the servant to do?"

"Hurry up and call Qingxi over here."

"Yes, miss, you wait, the servant will call him as quickly as possible." Xiu Zhu turned around like a rabbit and ran towards the Yanxia courtyard.

Seeing her daughter's resolute behavior, the mother was very pleased. She smiled and said, "Xia'er, you also think there is a big problem here, don't you?"

"Yeah, mother, didn't Zhuangtou find out that there is something wrong with this kind of seed?" Yunxia was a little annoyed, and logically said that Zhuangtou should have found out first, even though Zhuangtou is not very good at farming, but he has stayed in the village for so many years , I won't see it too.

"The head of the village said that he felt that these seeds should germinate, but they never did. He also invited the old man in the village to look at them, and the man said that there was no problem, and some seeds might germinate a little later. Besides, It’s not that there are no seedlings at all, there are seedlings in some places, but there are no large quantities of seedlings.”

"Did this batch of seeds be bought or not?"

"Mother was about to talk about this issue, but Zhuangtou said that he believed in the quality of this batch of seeds, because these were their own seeds, and they were all selected and stored with high-quality corn."

Yunxia already had a bit of a clue in her heart, and it was most likely the fault of Butler Ding.

At this time, Xiuzhu had already entered the yard with Qingxi.

As soon as Qingxi entered, Yunxia caught him and asked him away.

"Qingxi, what's the matter with the corn seeds? Please tell me in detail."

"If you go back to the eldest lady, most of these seeds will not germinate." Qingxi was obviously a little anxious. Such a large fertile field has been delayed like this.

"Tell me why it can't sprout?" Yunxia asked anxiously.

"The little one dug up the soil and looked, and those seeds didn't move at all, just like the seeds that the young father planted that didn't germinate. Speaking of which, I blame the little one, when I was young, mischievous, The little one accidentally poured boiling water on the seeds, and was afraid that his parents would scold him, so he decided to dry the seeds secretly without telling his parents."

"It turned out that your father used that kind of seed and it was a tragedy." Yunxia said.

"Missy is right. The little one's father found that the old ones didn't germinate after planting the seeds. At that time, he wondered what happened to the seeds this time. Could it be that they were so unlucky that they stored bad seeds? That would be miserable. Originally Life at home is tight, and they are still counting on it to produce a harvest.

At that time, my parents were very worried, and I felt my conscience was disturbed, so I confessed to my parents.Later, the father beat the younger one up, saying that the younger one delayed the good time of planting and ruined the big event.

Then I took the little one to the field to look, dug up the soil, and let the little one see a lot of seeds. From then on, the little one deeply remembered what the seeds soaked in boiling water looked like, and they really couldn't sprout. "

Mother pointed to Qingxi and said, You are too naughty.

"Madam taught me that since then, the younger one has followed his father to the fields, so he has learned a lot of farm work."

"Wait, let me sort out my thoughts. This batch of corn seeds is probably soaked in boiling water. Zhuangtou is not around. It should be the hands and feet of Zhuangtou's wife and the old man. Zhuangtou is too confident. seeds, that’s why today’s situation is created.”

"Miss, it's as if you saw it with your own eyes!" Qingxi expressed his admiration.

Yunxia thought, why don't you follow what you saw with your own eyes?This girl also has the ability to see through, so there is no doubt that the man behind this scene must be Ding.

She turned to look at her mother: "Mother, has Zhuangtou taken remedial measures?"

Mother nodded and said: "He immediately summoned people to prepare for replanting, and sent people to follow Qingxi to buy seeds. Now it can catch up with the planting, and it will be too late. That's why mother is lucky today. Take Qingxi away, Qingxi has done a great job!"

After being praised repeatedly by the eldest lady, Qingxi felt very embarrassed.He waved his hands and said: "Madam, you are so polite. You don't need to thank me, this is what I should do. You are such a good master, even if I spend my heart and soul, I can't repay you. What will happen to you in the future? Although command the little one."

The mother smiled and said, "You child, your mouth is so sweet."

"The young ones are sweet-talking only in front of the eldest lady and eldest lady." Qingxi said again.

This made both mother and Yunxia laugh.
