Shen Zheng cried wildly.
Cheng Wanwan used her sleeves to help him wipe away his tears.
"You should grow up after crying once. You can no longer hide your anger and hide from people." She said softly, "Master Shen, let's go. Go out and tell your father clearly."
Shen Zheng pursed his lips: "Auntie, don't call me young master. Just call me by my name."
Cheng Wanwan laughed: "Okay, then I'll call you Xiaozheng."
A smile appeared on Shen Zheng's pursed lips.
He stood up and followed Cheng Wanwan out obediently.
Magistrate Shen had been waiting uneasily at the door. He just heard Shen Zheng crying. His old father's heart felt like it had been thrown into a frying pan, and he felt so uncomfortable.
Seeing Shen Zheng's eyes as red as rabbits, Magistrate Shen rushed over in one stride.
He pressed his son's shoulder and spoke word by word: "Zheng'er, dad misunderstood you. Dad solemnly apologizes to you. Can you forgive dad?"
"snort!"
Shen Zheng turned his head proudly.
He groaned and said, "When I apologized before, you were not so quick to forgive me, hum!"
Magistrate Shen was very troubled: "Well, Zheng'er, what do you want me to do so that I can forgive my father?"
Shen Zheng touched his chin and thought for a while before speaking: "I heard that little girl said that her mother was seriously ill and was about to die. If you really care about the people, send a doctor with better medical skills to diagnose and treat her. By the way, I also helped pay for the medical expenses.”
Naturally, County Magistrate Shen would not refuse this trivial matter and asked Master Yuan to handle it immediately.
"Zheng'er, you have really grown up!"
Magistrate Shen patted his son's shoulder with comfort.
In the past, Zheng'er never had this kind heart to care about the people. After staying in Dahe Village for half a month, his son has really improved. This is probably the most correct decision he has made.
He calmed down and turned to look at Cheng Wanwan: "Ms. Zhao Cheng, I've made you laugh. Let's get down to business quickly."
Cheng Wanwan nodded, led the way, took Magistrate Shen to the fields, and carefully explained the specific situation of regenerated rice to Magistrate Shen.
"Regenerated rice..." Magistrate Shen pondered, "When I went to the south for inspection many years ago, I saw similar records in local chronicles. There is rice in the south. It is harvested twice a year. After harvesting for more than a month, the ears will bear rice. The grains are small but the ears are many, and the yield per mu is more than a hundred catties... But this abnormality only appeared once, and it was recorded as a vision and then nothing happened..."
Cheng Wanwan laughed. As long as it had appeared here before, it would not be too difficult to promote it. The book she bought said that basically all southern regions can grow regenerated rice. In years with good weather, it is easy to grow regenerated rice. Cultivation, and the growth cycle is extremely short, and a bumper harvest can be achieved in fifty or sixty days... However, modern society is harvested by machines, and rice harvested by machines will not leave any stubble. Moreover, hybrid rice can produce thousands of grains per mu, which is not enough for this amount of food, so In modern times, there are few areas dedicated to cultivating regenerated rice.
She and Magistrate Shen were talking in the field.
Shen Zheng stood on the stone roller in the yard and looked at the two people in the field.
His father was tall and tall in official uniform, and Aunt Zhao was standing next to his father in a khaki coarse cloth. This scene was inexplicably harmonious.
Ever since he could remember, Ah Nai had been looking for brides for his father. At first, they were young girls, and then gradually, they turned into older women who had not gotten married for some reason... But he was old Dad was not very cooperative, and he always made things difficult for her. For so many years, no woman had been able to enter the Shen family.
if...if...
"Hahaha, Master Shen, you are such a crybaby!" Zhao Sidan, who was hiding by the courtyard wall, suddenly jumped out, "You are such a big man and you still cry, you are worse than me!"
"You little bastard, how dare you eavesdrop!" Shen Zheng grabbed his collar, "If you dare to tell others, I will kill you!"
"Ouch——!"
Xiaodian rushed out and shouted at Shen Zheng.
Shen Zheng angrily let go of Zhao Sidan, stared at Xiaodian and cursed: "You heartless beast, every time I have something delicious to eat, I give it to you, and you still want to bite me, hum, I will never ignore you again!"
He sat on the stone roller angrily.
Zhao Sidan came over: "Hey, Master Shen, don't be angry, look what good things I brought you, prickly pear, it's delicious!"
He took out a prickly fruit from his clothes and handed it to Shen Zheng.
Shen Zheng took it and took a bite. It was very sour and he didn't like it very much, but Zhao Sidan was staring at him and swallowing, so he ate it in one bite.
He pressed Zhao Sidan's shoulders and snorted: "For the sake of helping me pick wild fruits, I won't argue with you. In the future, don't call me Master Shen. Just call me." Brother Zheng."
Zhao Sidan shook his head: "How can this be done? My mother will scold me if she hears this!"
"No, your mother also calls me Xiaozheng." Shen Zheng's eyebrows were filled with smiles, "Sidan, look over there, what do you see?"
Zhao Sidan stood on his feet and looked around: "It's just a field, there is water in the field, and there are ducks... Oops, we have to drive the ducks back quickly!"
He has long legs and wants to go.
Shen Zheng grabbed him: "Ahem, Sidan, look carefully. The two people standing on the ridge of the field are my father and your mother."
Zhao Sidan added: "There are also Grandpa Li Zheng and Master Yuan."
"Can you just pretend you can't see these two people?" Shen Zheng glared at him and continued, "Does your mother and my father stand together, do you find it particularly pleasing to the eye?"
Zhao Sidan frowned: "Master Shen...Brother Zheng, what exactly do you want to say?"
"Um, Sidan, that's right, I just want to..." The dignified young master Shen rarely showed a troubled expression. He struggled for a while and finally said, "I heard someone say that you are born with no Having met your father, don’t you want a father?”
Zhao Sidan blinked: "I was born without a father, and I lived a good life. It doesn't matter if I have him or not."
Shen Zheng pointed at himself: "Don't you envy me? Don't you envy me for having a father who is an official?"
"I don't envy you. My grandma said that she would rather be a beggar than an official father. If your father likes you, why would he leave you in our house?" Zhao Sidan suddenly approached him and stared at him with a pair of big eyes. He looked at Shen Zheng and spoke slowly, "Master Shen, are you jealous that I have a mother? Do you want to take my mother away?"
After being exposed, Shen Zheng became a little angry and snorted: "Yes, I just want a mother. I want a mother to love me in my dreams. I want your mother to be my stepmother!"
Zhao Sidan was stunned.
"You're dreaming!" Zhao Ergou rushed into the yard, "Shen Zheng, your father is the county magistrate. There are many people willing to be your stepmother. Don't worry about our mother!"
Shen Zheng tensed his chin: "What if your mother is also willing to be my stepmother?"
He looked up toward the fields.
Zhao Ergou and Zhao Sidan also looked over.
From their perspective, Magistrate Shen and Cheng Wanwan were walking on the field ridge one after another. The sun fell on their shoulders, and the ducks played in the field. The waves were shallow and surprisingly beautiful.
Zhao Sidan froze: "Second brother..."
Zhao Ergou covered his mouth: "Don't speak, let me calm down first."
