I traveled through time, this is unscientific

Chapter 195: Original Farmer

195 Original Farmer

"They can't do anything, but we can!" Ge Meili became more and more excited as she spoke.

"Or we can get a high-powered pump and equip it with water pipes to pump water from the pond on the mountain down here."

Zhou Xiaozhou interrupted her: "You're dreaming! Where can we get those things?"

"Buy it! You're taking care of your father, so why worry about not being able to get this little thing?"

Ge Meili pursed her lips towards Wu Sanmei, then whispered into Zhou Xiaozhou's ear, "Besides, the working group may also take action! This can help us build a good relationship with the indigenous people. It's a great thing, and the higher-ups don't support it."

Zhou Xiaozhou thought about it carefully and realized that this was indeed the case.

"Let's try again. What if we don't find water in the mountains?"

This kind of thing happens all the time! Even if you try to find water, you may not be able to find it right away.

Zhou Xiaozhou didn't dare to say anything too definite, so he decided to wait and see the situation!

Wu Sanmei saw that the water issue was about to be settled, but she only heard these words. She was secretly anxious, but she didn't dare to say anything to persuade him anymore.

Zhou Xiaozhou, however, noticed the anxiety in her eyes and comforted her: "Don't worry, Third sister. The adults should figure out a way to deal with these things. And I'm here, so you won't starve."

This statement did come true, but that is all in the future.

The young man from the Hua family worked efficiently. He moved ten bags of rice into the cave under the ancestral hall by himself.

This time, without the annoying Chen Dashan, Zhou Xiaozhou had the leisure to take a good look.

The courtyard of this ancestral hall is larger than that of an ordinary family. There is only one main room in the courtyard, which is lonely. The tunnel leading to the underground cave is just under the table for offering sacrifices in the ancestral hall. The incense and candles placed on the table are quite old and very simple.

There were two tribute plates on top, with dried fruits on them.

There was a clay idol on the platform behind the table. Zhou Xiaozhou tried to identify it for a long time but couldn't figure out which one of the gods and Buddhas it was.

Of course, as a staunch atheist, she has limited knowledge of the gods, so please forgive her for being short-sighted. Sorry, sorry.

Zhou Xiaozhou's look around finally caught Wu Sanmei's attention.

"Sister Zhou, what are you looking at?"

"Nothing, just curious, why is the courtyard of the ancestral hall so big?"

"Sometimes my grandfather would ask uncles from the village to come here to discuss matters. The county would also come here to pay taxes, so the place was bigger."

"Is the village still holding a meeting? A general meeting? All the people in the village?"

"Even if everyone in the village comes, there won't be enough space in the yard!"

Wu Sanmei recalled the stories her grandfather told her.

"That kind of situation rarely happens. I have never seen it before."

Zhou Xiaozhou understood that if the whole village was really gathered together, it would be a big deal! Didn’t the last group that was wiped out clamor for the whole village to gather together?

The villagers haven't arrived yet! I'm dead.

It was so pitiful that Zhou Xiaozhou shed crocodile tears for it.

"Which deity are you worshipping here? I don't have any impression of him, Chen Dahe. Little Ge, have you ever seen a deity like this?"

Zhou Xiaozhou couldn't point fingers at the idol on the stage, so he could only speak vaguely.

They both shook their heads. Wu Sanmei knew: "This is the Great God of Agriculture, who can bless our crops to grow abundantly and well."

This is confusing. How can it bless good weather and good harvests and also bless the growth of crops? What kind of god is this Yuannong God? How can he not only call the wind and rain but also increase crop yields?

And the plaid shirt he's wearing is so eye-catching!

Zhou Xiaozhou is almost bald.

Chen Dahe looked for a long time and found something wrong. He didn't pay attention to this situation when he came here before, but he did now.

Well! Which programmer is sitting on top?

Ge Meili laughed out loud as she watched, and covered her mouth with her hands.

What is this thing called?

Zhou Xiaozhou felt like a cat scratching a thorn in her heart. She decided to continue asking: "What else do you know about this Yuannong God?"

Wu Sanmei: "What else do you know? He is the great god Yuannong!"

Zhou Xiaozhou: "I'm asking, where did this deity come from? When did you start worshipping him? What did you offer him? Fruits or animals?"

Wu Sanmei didn't know why Sister Zhou wanted to know these things, but she still told her everything she knew.

"The Great God Yuannong has always been in the temple. He was sitting here before I was born."

Zhou Xiaozhou was anxious and said, "Kid, that's not what I wanted to ask."

Wu Sanmei continued, "When my grandfather was born, he was also here. He was very old, and he always sat there."

Zhou Xiaozhou gave up. The child didn't understand what she meant, but what he said still revealed some information.

"Then what do you usually offer to him? I saw some dried fruits on the offering plate."

"I know this. My mother and I picked fruits from the mountains during the New Year and put them on display. We usually offer fruits and vegetables to the God of Agriculture. My grandfather said that the God of Agriculture likes to eat fruits and rice. One year, my grandfather brought a bowl of white rice, and the villagers said that the God of Agriculture was very happy."

Zhou Xiaozhou and the other two looked at each other. Why did this seem a little wrong?

Combining the rice with the kind-looking clay sculpture sitting on top, Zhou Xiaozhou's answer is obvious.

But when did Grandpa Yuan become the great agricultural god?

Oh oh oh, they heard it wrong, Master Yuan Long!

What on earth is going on?

Before the three of them had time to start a discussion, the young man from the Hua family finished moving the last bag of rice and came out of the tunnel.

"Third sister, I have already put the things in the warehouse. You should take them and leave quickly! The ancestral hall is a sacred place, outsiders cannot stay here."

This is also a case of destroying the bridge after crossing it. Zhou Xiaozhou was so angry.

How many times has she been backstabbed today?

Reciting "Don't be angry" silently in his heart, Zhou Xiaozhou turned around and left.

Chen Dahe and Ge Meili followed immediately.

Wu Sanmei hurriedly followed: "Sister Zhou, don't be angry, Brother Hua is not targeting you, it's just that outsiders are not allowed to enter the village ancestral hall."

Zhou Xiaozhou would not argue with the child from the Hua family. She knew that the child was just following orders.

She was just angry because she had no influence and no power, so she was bullied everywhere.

Zhou Xiaozhou decided to set up a company when he returned, sell everything he had, make some money first, get some initial capital, and then expand and strengthen his business in both worlds.

Thinking that the group of children who were picking up stones would probably be back soon, the three of them took Wu Sanmei back.

When passing through the alley in the village, Ge Meili poked Zhou Xiaozhou on the back, and Zhou Xiaozhou looked at her in confusion.

"Just ask!"

Ge Meili whispered in her ear.

"what?"

Ge Meili is so disappointed with you that you have forgotten what I just mentioned.

"Ask about the real thing!"

Zhou Xiaozhou suddenly realized and quickly flipped through her encyclopedia.

"Third sister! Let me ask you, when those uniformed men came that time, didn't we follow the children from the village into the tunnel? Does every household in the village have this tunnel?"
