Traveling through time and space to meet a replacement bride? But I’m a man!

Taxes are collected half a month later.

As the temperature warms up, snow is no longer visible in most areas and the ground is covered with snow and water.

The muddy ground fills the air with the unique fragrance of soil.

Xu Wenyan had also seen Chen Sanlin’s land before. It was less than one acre in total, but it was big enough, at least about 500 square meters.

The villagers have the habit of keeping a calendar, and Xu Wenyan admires that very much. He cannot remember the rotation time of the 24 solar terms because he has to calculate it.

Hearing that it would rain tomorrow, Xu Wenyan prepared to plow the little land at home before the Waking of Insects.

Actually, Chen Sanlin's family has hoes, one big and one small. But when Chen Sanlin lived here, he seldom farmed. He only planted a little in the spring and then prepared to hunt in the fall. But this year was really special and he didn't catch anything in the winter.

In the past winters, he could earn enough money to survive in the county by hunting, and he didn't even farm in the spring.

He put on suede clothes, picked up a hoe, and went to the fields with Chen Sanlin and Rong Xiaoliu, and left the housework to the younger ones.

Since the passing of Mrs. Zhang, there has been no one to take care of his children.

Go out of the yard and turn two corners, and you will find Chen Sanlin’s land, probably on the right side of Zhou’s gate.

Xu Wenyan was also worried when he looked at the land. He just dug a hole with a hoe, but it was full of weed roots, not much better than a wasteland. Moreover, the land was muddy, and he didn't have rain boots at that time, so the mud on the soles of his feet was getting heavier and heavier.

"Brother Chen, you go and weed. Xiaoliu and I will dig the ground." There was no sickle at home, and Chen Sanlin was the only one who could use the machete smoothly, so he could deal with the slightly longer dry weeds more quickly.

When he dug a hoe into the ground, he could see a lot of white buds about to sprout out. Xu Wenyan estimated that in a few days the mountain would be full of life again.

After only half an hour, Xu Wenyan put his hands on his hips and felt exhausted. He had farmed when he was at his uncle's house, so it wasn't necessarily that he would be exhausted in just an hour. It seemed that he still needed to replenish his body.

But it was much better than the first day he came here.

Just think about it, at that time I would start coughing and gasping for breath after just walking a few steps. It was really not easy to survive.

"Brother Xu, you take a rest, I'll do it." Rong Xiaoliu quickened the pace of hoeing the ground. As long as he did more, Brother Xu would have to do less.

Xu Wenyan always adheres to his good virtues and listens to advice.

Rest if you can without tiring yourself out.

He sat down on the edge of the field, looking at the mountains and forests in the distance, feeling sad that he had finally gotten out of the mountains, but now he had to return to the mountains after traveling through time.

It's all fate.

After returning home and having a good meal at noon, Xu Wenyan still asked them to take a half-hour nap. If they didn't rest well after doing physical work, they would not be able to go to the fields again the next day.

As soon as Xu Wenyan lay down, he heard someone calling him outside.

After he went out, he saw that it was the village chief's son: "Brother Xingjie, what's wrong?"

Chen Xingjie looked at Xu Wenyan who was unhappy and thought he had quarreled with Chen Sanlin: "It's nothing, we just cleaned out Wang Deshun's house, and there are some herbs in it. My father asked me to send them to you.

Ever since Wang Deshun left, Xu Wenyan was tacitly appointed as the next barefoot doctor in the village. No one knew how to make the medicine, so they all were sent to Xu Wenyan.

Xu Wenyan took a careful look and found that there were not many varieties. The most expensive ones were a few roots of Codonopsis pilosula that could replenish qi and blood. There was half a piece of Gastrodia elata and he didn't know who the other half was given to. Could people in this village afford Gastrodia elata?

There are some wolfberries, dried mulberries, mulberry leaves, dandelions and Atractylodes macrocephala. It seems that Wang Deshun knows a lot.

"By the way, Brother Xingjie, what seeds do you have at home? Can I buy some?" When Xu Wenyan went to the county to sell his house before, he looked at the prices of those seeds and said he couldn't afford them.

"There should be more, but we won't know until we sow them in a few days. Don't hesitate to buy them. We will give you all the extra ones we have." Chen Xingjie was also generous, probably learned from Wang Dongmei.

Xu Wenyan smiled and thanked Chen Xingjie before going back into the house.

"Who is it?" Chen Sanlin asked lazily.

"Chen Xingjie, come and bring me some medicinal herbs."

The two of them slept for a while and then went to the fields with the whole family in the afternoon.

"Attention, Team Potato," Xu Wenyan called out to the three younger kids in the family.

"Team Potato received it! Captain Xu, please treat us to cheese." Chen Dong babbled. Although his pronunciation was unclear, his expression showed that he attached great importance to this operation.

Xu Wenyan pointed to the ground: "The goal is to clear the stones in the ground, no problem!"

"We will ensure that we complete the task!" the three children said in unison.

Watching Xu Wenyan taking care of the child, Chen Sanlin just stood aside and watched and laughed. Why is his wife so interesting?

Xu Wenyan did this to prevent the children from being too bored. If they just focused on picking up stones and tree roots, their body and mind would be extremely tired, so Xu Wenyan came up with this method to increase the fun.

......Actually, I just wanted to entertain the kids.

It is not common to see families like them coming here with their children. Boys in most farmers' families are kept under close watch and are not allowed to work in the fields until they are at least ten years old. Girls have to do housework and cook at home.

Their whole family was talking and laughing in the field, and others were really envious of them.

Those unruly sons in my family would throw tantrums as soon as they got to the fields and would refuse to work after a while. Why are the children in Chen Sanlin's family so obedient?

With the help of the children, Xu Wenyan felt a lot more relaxed. Today, he had to cultivate a small part of the half acre of land except for the grass. There was no way he could do anything here.

Xu Wenyan said that he really couldn't swing such a big hoe more than a few times.

The family returned home. The two adults and the children's faces were covered in dirt. Xu Wenyan just shook his head, saying that the children could wash their own clothes anyway.

But I can't avoid taking a shower and washing my hair today.

Xu Wenyan first put the wood ash into water to filter it and then poured it into the rice washing water to cook together. A large basin was filled with boiled water. As the person with the highest status in the family, of course he was the first to wash.

After Chen Sanlin and Rong Xiaoliu finished washing, Xu Wenyan boiled another pot of water, and then pressed them one by one against the fireplace to wait for them to dry.

As for taking a bath, it is simpler. Since I haven’t found the soapberry yet, I can only wipe it simply.

After taking a refreshing shower, I feel much more comfortable lying in bed.

Feeling the warm touch on his waist, Xu Wenyan slapped the big hands away.

"I just washed it, and I'm sweating again if I get close to it." Xu Wenyan said as he slowly kicked Chen Sanlin to the edge of the bed.

Chen Sanlin felt bitter, but he didn't say it.

Why doesn’t he let me hug his wife after she takes a nice bath?

Wronged.
