[System, is there anyone around? 】
Yesterday, Meiberry belatedly discovered that someone was spying secretly, and the system did not say anything. Now, after Meiberry sensed it on the spot, she immediately asked the system.
[Yes, but I won’t tell you, host. 】
[I know where it is without you telling me. 】
Meiberry turned around and faced fields on three sides, with dense woods in only one direction.
If someone needs to hide, the only place they can hide is in the woods over there.
However, in the moment when Mei Bei suddenly turned around and looked over, not to mention the system, even Jia Wu, who was watching secretly, was almost startled by the little girl who suddenly burst into view.
Although Meiberry had never been to her own field and didn't know its specific location, the mound was not high. What kind of fields and how many people were on it became clear to Meiberry after she stood still for a while and looked at it.
In particular, Mei Berry caught the eye of Meiyu who was standing on a high place and looking down.
"Sister!" Meiberry waved her hand when she saw her. When she waved her hand, she felt the eyes from behind her.
Why!
This would be a ghost if he wasn't here to keep an eye on the heroine!
Mei Berry complained secretly in her heart, and walked up the mountain with small steps. Upon seeing this, Mei You came down and took two steps to greet her, and brought Mei Berry near their two fields.
"What did Uncle Third grow?"
Mei Qian knew that rice was not grown on Mei You's family's land. Unlike her father, who did not grow any staple food, but instead planted peanuts. The buds growing in her third uncle's field looked different from her father's. .
"Millet."
"Eh?"
"It seems to be millet?" Mei You actually didn't know what Mei Sanma meant by millet, but Mei Bei asked in hindsight: "Is it yellow rice?"
"Not Xiaomi?"
Seeing that Mei You really didn't know what yellow rice was, Mei Peisi organized her words and said: "Yellow rice is one of the five grains. Have you ever eaten that kind of yellow rice glutinous rice balls? Yellow rice is ground into powder, which is similar to glutinous rice flour. Like, sticky, but yellow rice can also be used to make zongzi.”
"No, the glutinous rice balls and rice dumplings we eat at home are all made from glutinous rice."
Meiyou shook her head, she really didn't know this.
"In addition to this yellow rice, dad also planted some beans."
"Oh, that's pretty good too."
Although her father had planted peanuts in the paddy field at home, the wheat had also been harvested, and the next thing to be planted, plumberries, could also remind her father.
Taking her third uncle's house as a reference, grains and grains still need to be grown.
Seeing that Mei Bei was thinking about something in a daze, Mei You glanced at the bottom of the slope again and suddenly asked: "When you came over, what were you doing standing down there and looking back?"
"Ah, I feel like there's someone over there."
Mayberry, who was thinking about other things, answered quite quickly.
"right?"
Meiyou heard a chuckle. Meiberry realized what she had just answered and immediately looked at Meiyou.
At this moment, Mei You didn't have any doubts about what Mei Bei said just now, and just asked: "You seem to be very sensitive to people's eyes?"
"Okay?"
Meiberry was actually not sure whether it was the original body's specialty, but as her body became better and better, she discovered that the original body's five senses seemed to be a little better than ordinary people.
Not wanting to bring the topic to herself, Meiberry looked up and asked tentatively: "Sister, did you also discover something?"
Meiyou lowered her eyes. She never thought that Meiberry would be so sensitive and notice something unusual.
Just thinking about the previous things again, Mei You felt that things seemed a little tricky.
"As you said, there is someone, I don't know the specifics."
Mei You spoke half-truths and half-false words. If you want to know how the current situation developed like this, Mei You would definitely take the initiative to take all the blame on himself.
The more Mei Berry asked her this, the more she could only say she didn't know.
"Okay, why are we being targeted? We can't be enemies, right?"
While Meiberry seemed to be complaining unintentionally, she glanced at Meiyou secretly and saw that she was silent. When she really didn't want to tell herself what happened, Meiberry said nothing more.
Even if Meiyou didn't say anything, Meiberry knew that Meiyou would never sit still and wait for death.
"Sister, if you need my cooperation if you need anything, just ask."
Realizing that Mei You had indeed noticed in advance that someone around her was staring at her, Mei Berry simply took advantage of Mei You's current hesitation and volunteered.
She couldn't miss this check-in thing. What could be better than participating in it personally?
Shaking his head, he raised his hand to touch Mayberry's head and said, "I'll tell you if I need anything."
Mayberry: "..."
Could it be that her sister didn't want to get involved with her this time?
On the other side, Mei Sanma and Mei Youqian were very happy to see that there was no water in the field due to rain this time.
“I’ve been focusing on the wheat these days, and I almost forgot about the mountain.”
Mei Youqian wiped the sweat on his forehead with his sleeve, turned to look at the little water in the reservoir over there because of the rain, and said, "I thought it was raining hard this time, but it turned out The reservoir only has so much water."
Mei Sanma also hummed, and any thoughts of regretting planting millet disappeared long ago.
"The paddy fields on the slopes are not very good to begin with..."
Mei Sanma, who had been bored for a long time, suddenly said something like this. On the surface, he said that the location was not good, but on the inside, he was complaining that it was unbalanced that Old Man Mei had given them the only two bad paddy fields in his family.
Mei Youqian discovered the meaning of his words, so he didn't express any opinion.
However, he just felt that Mei Sanma didn't express this until now. He didn't know whether it was only now that he realized it and complained, or whether he knew it all along and just held back.
If it were the former, Mei Youqian would have to say that this reflex arc is too outrageous.
The sun is rising and the scorching sun is high.
After the two of them finished the work, they quickly invited Meiberry and Meiyou to go down the mountain and go home.
After going down the mountain, I don't know what happened, but Mei Berry and the others happened to meet an old man Mei who was coming here alone.
It was lunch time, and I didn’t know what Old Man Mei was doing here at this time.
Although they were confused in their hearts, the four of them still said hello obediently.
"Dad (Grandpa)."
Old Man Mei didn't expect to meet the four of them, so he just nodded in agreement, and then left alone with a hoe.
Looking at the back of Old Man Mei leaving alone, Mei Sanma saw that her previous resentment towards Old Man Mei had turned into sympathy, and sighed: "There are so many fields at home, how can dad get you to come here alone?"
"Are you feeling distressed?" After Mei Youqian asked, he glanced at Mei Sanma and stretched out his hand, "Lend me ten taels."
"Oh, okay...eh? Brother, why did you ask me to borrow money?"
"I'll borrow it while you're nice. Brother, if you have time to feel sorry for your father, then you should also feel sorry for me, brother~"
Looking at her father who was stunned by his second uncle's sudden and strange attitude, Mei You couldn't help it, turned his face and burst into laughter.
Mayberry was also laughing so hard that she covered her mouth with her hands and twitched.
How can her third uncle still have the time to worry about Old Man Mei after her father's genius?
Just feel sorry for yourself!
After realizing it, Mei Sanma blushed suddenly and started to stutter her words, saying: "Brother, that, that's our father, I..."
Mei Youqian didn't feel pity for the lonely appearance of old man Mei. He only asked: "Sister-in-law and mother are both at home. Dad came here alone at noon. If he hadn't been willing, do you think there would be anyone here?" Is it possible to force him?
Our father is not like us, who dares to really control him? "
The four of them, Mei Bei, were walking back and talking. No one saw that old Mei Mei was walking towards his own field. At the same time, he inadvertently glanced towards the woods under the slope...
Meiberry: The initiative to ask for a job failed, please ask the system for convenience!
System: He’s calling the system again, and he doesn’t even say anything about it, hum!
