Traveling through time with a house, I teach people all over the country how to farm

Chapter 182 Candy

After Zheng Sisi had arranged all her matters, she planned to go out for a walk and take a look at the layout of the farm. She came late yesterday and was delayed by the Fang family's affairs, so she didn't do anything.

When they heard that Zheng Sisi was going out, several people followed her quickly. Rose and Lily were very smart and went to find two backpacks and a few small shovels that were left behind.

A group of more than a dozen people walked out of the compound. Zheng Sisi looked at the three girls' clothes and kindly reminded them, "Why don't you change your clothes? It's not convenient to go out like this. I'm afraid your clothes will be dirty when you come back."

The three looked at the short coat Zheng Sisi was wearing and said awkwardly, "Sister Sisi, our clothes are all like this, it doesn't matter if we change."

Zheng Sisi had no choice but to say, "You guys better be careful."

The three of them nodded in unison.

The group walked towards the houses and could see that the manor was built in the middle of the fields, with a large threshing ground at the back. The fields were very flat and water should be easily accessible. It was not spring plowing yet, so the fields were full of small grasses and wild vegetables, not very tall and very tender.

It's just that the road is not good, with some potholes, not as wide and flat as the road in Wohushan Farm. It seems that the father and son of the Fang family only know how to show off their power and do good things here, but have not made any contribution.

Zheng Sisi will remember everything she saw and will slowly change herself.

The villagers live in concentrated thatched houses with bamboo fences or stone walls.

There were children playing on the road, all of them were three or four years old, and were running and jumping together under the supervision of the elderly at home. The elderly were holding small baskets filled with needles and thread, some were making shoes, and some were mending clothes.

Zheng Sisi noticed that these villagers were all thin, and they were probably short of food. Thinking about how they harvested so much food every year, but could only keep a little for themselves, and the rest had to be given to the Fang family father and son, Zheng Sisi felt that it was not worth it for them.

Zheng Sisi went over and asked a few elderly people: "Old people, may I ask which road you take to enter the mountain?"

Seeing that they were wealthy young men and ladies from the city, the few people guessed that they were from the compound.

Everyone in the family said last night that the owner of the farm who came this time was a county lady appointed by the emperor, an official like a county magistrate. The county lady was very nice and could make decisions for them. She even sent the Fang father and son to the county jail.

Several people were also very grateful to the county lady. An old man pointed to the road ahead and said kindly: "Girl, follow this road. There is a fork in the road ahead. Go left and you will go up the mountain. Don't go too deep into the mountain. There are large wild animals in it that can hurt people. Villagers only dare to collect firewood and dig wild vegetables on the outskirts."

Zheng Sisi thanked the old man, took out a few handfuls of candy from her backpack, and distributed some to everyone, saying that they were for the children to sweeten their mouths.

When the old men saw the candies the girl had given them, which were precious to them, and some of them had no money to buy them in their entire lives, they quickly stood up. The old man who had just spoken asked, "Girl, are you the county lady?"

Zheng Sisi: "Hey, I'm the county lady, but not an adult."

Several people knelt down quickly: "This humble woman greets the county lady."

Zheng Sisi quickly pulled them up: "Don't kneel anymore, I don't like this."

Several elderly people responded, and someone else said, "The county lady is a very kind person. She can make decisions for us and give us candy. I have only eaten candy once since I was a child, and it was so sweet. I will save it for my grandchildren."

Zheng Sisi said goodbye to a few people and led the team forward.

Zhong Ruiyu came close to Zheng Sisi and said, "Sister Sisi, do you have any candy? Give me one too."

Zheng Sisi rolled her eyes at her: "How old are you? Have you never eaten candy?"

Zhong Ruiyu chuckled: "I've eaten candy before, but the one you're holding seems different."

Zheng Sisi couldn't persuade him, so she took out a handful of candies from her backpack and gave two to each of them.
