After the New Year, we have to plow the fields. In the first month of the new year, all the vegetables in the vegetable fields are eaten up. Even if they are not eaten up, because of the rainy weather for half a month, the vegetables in the fields are all rotten.
Taking advantage of the sun coming out in the past two days, every household took out their quilts and clothes to dry them, and then went to plow the ground and plant vegetables.
Many villagers felt envious when they saw the green rice fields of several households including Ruoxuan and the village chief!
When everyone went to the fields with hoes, they couldn't help but go to Ruoxuan's family's fields to see how the rice was growing. The more they looked at it, the more envious they became.
"The weather has been warm these days, and the rice is growing much faster! It looks like it's about to ear!"
"Not only does it grow faster! Don't you think these rice plants grow better than early rice and late rice?"
"No, oh, if it grows like this in a month or so, we should be able to harvest before transplanting! If I had known, my family would follow suit at that time!"
"I'm also regretting it. At the end of this year, I will also plant along with you. How much more food will be harvested after one season of planting? I'm afraid there won't be enough food for everyone, so it can be used to feed livestock!"
"Oh, you made me regret it even more! No, I'm going to the weak family to ask Mrs. Lei how to grow rice in the third season." What the man didn't say was that he had to go to Mrs. Lei to order some rice seeds. , so as not to say it out loud, too many people would go there, and there wouldn’t be enough rice seeds for Mrs. Lei to leave for herself.
When the others heard this, they also hurriedly said: "Wait a minute, I'll go too!"
Some people are envious, while others are jealous. Although Mrs. Tan's injuries are not completely healed, she has sold several of her daughters and the edible vegetables at home are gone. She can only endure the pain and go out to dig the land to grow vegetables.
Granny Tan suddenly regretted selling Zhen Yi, now all the household chores fell on her!
Even though her injuries were not fully healed, she had to do this and that. How could she do it if she was used to being served by several daughters?
At this moment, Mrs. Tan heard everyone's words and couldn't help spitting at the weak rice seedlings: "Bah, growing well does not mean there is a harvest. Even if the ears are heading, there may be empty shells!"
If it weren't for a weak family that didn't want to marry Zhen Yi, why would she go to the ground with injuries and just lie down at home and wait for Zhen Yi to serve her.
In addition, the only half of the house left in the house was leaking. Huzi spent all the money to buy books and had no money to collect.
It has been rainy weather a while ago, it was wet outside, and it was also wet at home. The injuries on her body were getting better, but recently she felt heavier again.
It's all the weak family's fault.
Others couldn't bear to see her doing this. After all, crops are the life of the villagers. Everyone hates people who curse bad crops. Now they all hope that the weak families can grow rice this season and have a good harvest. This means that , they can also harvest one more crop of grain next year.
Therefore, many people couldn't help but say: "Mrs. Tan, this is wrong. You dare to curse the crops. You deserve to be poor!"
"That's right! If you say such ugly things, you don't want to follow me at the end of the year!"
"It's true that a dog's mouth can't spit out ivory. Good luck and a bumper harvest!"
"Mr. Tan, you'd better not follow the weak family to grow third-season rice! People like you are not worthy of growing third-season rice!"
"Don't let this evil-hearted woman break her up. She deserves to live like this. Let's go, let's go find Mrs. Lei and ask her how to grow the rice in the third season."
When Granny Tan saw that everyone was leaving, she muttered and followed with difficulty, "Bah, when my Huzi wins the top prize in high school, let alone the third crop of rice, I won't even have to plant the fields!"
At this time, a gust of wind blew by, and the spit of water she spat in the rice field flew up without anyone seeing it. With a "pop" sound, Granny Tan's face was confused.
Mrs. Tan reached out and touched it, then looked up at the sky: "Is it raining?"
The sky is blue and the sun is shining brightly.
But there happened to be a black bird flying overhead.
Mrs. Tan smelled it, and it was so stinky that she said with a dark face: "Damn it, isn't this crow's urine? That damn crow, I curse her to sit on a cow or a horse in the next life, and be ridden every day."
She didn't know whether the crow had peed, but since there was only one big bird flying in the sky and it wasn't raining, she could only doubt it.

Ruoxuan was taking Mr. Han and other children down the mountain to see how the rice was growing.
The wind sent everyone's words over, and Ruoxuan didn't pay much attention, except for casting a small spell to return the object to its original owner.
After casting the small spell, she glanced at Xuanyuan Que subconsciously.
Xuanyuan Que: Is this flower afraid of him or the way of heaven?
Elder Han and others could not hear the voices of the villagers in the distance. He took the children to the edge of the field, squatted down and took a look at the rice seedlings, and asked: "Xuanbao, has this rice started to ear?"
Ruoxuan squatted down with her small body next to Mr. Han, nodded, and pointed to the middle of the rice seedlings: "Yes! If you see it is a little bulging here, it means the earing has begun."
"The ears have already started to bear, so we will definitely be able to harvest, right?"
Ruoxuan nodded affirmatively: "It must be possible, the yield per mu will not be less than 800 catties."
Ruoxuan said conservatively. After all, her family's yield per mu was more than 1,000 kilograms, but other people's yields were uneven.
Mr. Han was so excited that he fell down on the ridge of the field. The yield per mu was no less than 800 kilograms.
If this is true, instead of growing one season of rice, this yield represents two crops of rice!
Ruoxuan quickly helped him up: "Sir, are you okay?"
"It's okay! It's okay!" Mr. Han smiled from ear to ear.
He is just excited!
After getting along for a while, Mr. Han also knew that 99% of Xiuxuan's words were true.
If only this were true!
The people of Shaxi County are blessed!
The people of Xuanyuan Kingdom are blessed!
He must take good note of the growth of the rice in this third season.
Mr. Han did not forget to ask the other children to come over and take a look, "You should all listen carefully to what Xuan Bao said and make good records. In the future, when will the rice be sown, when will it be transplanted, and when will it be eared? These old men will have to take exams!" "
The few children who were frightened by being punished for copying books had already taken notes in their notebooks!
Alas, it would be great if they were as smart as Xuan Bao and Xuanyuan Que. They would never be punished for copying books, and they would be exempted from homework. They could be late, leave early, or be absent from class without being punished!
My parents asked me why they had only left their brains behind?
After Ruoxuan told them about the rice situation, Mr. Han saw Mrs. Lei working on the other side of the vegetable field and asked, "Xuanbao, is your grandmother planting vegetables in the vegetable field?"
Ruoxuan nodded: "Yes! During the Chinese New Year, we eat all the vegetables in the fields."
Mr. Han didn't know what kind of vegetables could be grown in Shaxi County at this time, and was very interested: "Let's go and see how to grow vegetables. Remember it, this is also a test!"
Yan Jiaojiao and others stared at Xiuxuan.
Xuan Bao, can't you say no?
They had agreed to go up to the mountains to hunt and pick mushrooms after seeing the rice!
Ruoxuan: She didn’t know that grandma would come to plant vegetables today.
