After fleeing famine, I have thousands of acres of fertile land

Spring has come, with grass growing and birds flying. People in the village and on the hills are busy.

Doctor Lin took his second grandson to the clinic to practice medicine, and Lin You took his eldest son to open a pharmacy in the village.

People from the nearby villages, which are a little far from Wu'an City, come to see Doctor Kobayashi when they have a headache or fever.

Doctor Kobayashi was a skilled doctor and his consultation fees were not high, so his reputation soon spread.

The riverside land that Ye Lao Da's family cultivated belonged to Doctor Lin's family. After harvesting the last batch, they returned it to the Lin family.

He also distributed some vegetables to the Lin family, solving Wang's urgent problem.

Ye Dalang took Lin Wenzhi to the mountains to grow herbs.

The village has gained some experience in the past two years. At this time of year every year, the mountains and fields are filled with people.

In the woods on the mountain, weed first, pick out any wild vegetables we find, and take them home to add to your dishes.

Ye Qing took Wangcai and Heizi to look after the fruit trees at home.

There are a few grapes that taste very good and are particularly suitable for making wine.

Ye Qing found an experienced fruit farmer, cut some first, then broke off the leaves that sprouted below, leaving only the leaves on the top for planting by cuttings.

The branches of several grape vines on the mountain were cut and planted on more than half an acre of land.

Others used grape seeds for planting. First soak the grape seeds for half a day, then wrap them in wet cloth, and wait for them to germinate before planting them in the ground.

I started saving grape seeds last year. I gave them to other people and promised to return the seeds.

When the shopkeeper who sold the saplings came, Ye Qing asked him to help bring some other varieties of grapes.

More than 500 mulberry seedlings were also ordered, and the villagers are now following Ye Qing.

Seeing Ye Qing bought so many mulberry seedlings, I bought some too.

"Qingya, what are you buying so many mulberry seedlings for?" Aunt Lihua asked while registering twenty mulberry seedlings.

Ye Qing did not hide it, "We will plant them now, and we may raise silkworms in the future."

Lihua knew that mulberry leaves were needed to raise silkworms, but she didn't know what to do with it.

She didn't ask any further questions, knowing that it must be a job that could make money.

"Boss, add another thirty trees, and we can plant them on the fields and hills."

Other families also quietly doubled their income. Following Ye Qing for the past few years, their wallets have become fatter.

Ye Qing asked his eldest brother to say hello to Ji Cun and ask them to plant some as well, as a way of repaying Ji Cun for saving his life.

A large amount of mulberry leaves will be needed in the future, and what the two villages grow may not be enough.

The new winery was not completed before the New Year, and everyone in the village was busy making charcoal.

In winter, the weather was cold and the ground was frozen. Now that the ground has thawed, the winery's house is changing every day.

Master Li came over at night to help look after the new workshop, worried that people from other villages would come and steal materials.

Master Li is not cold here, so he built a small wooden house for him to live in first.

In the backyard of the meeting hall, Wangcai and Heizi watch over the two dogs at night. Now the two dogs are becoming more and more ferocious, and people who don’t know them will be scared.

Wangcai and Heizi's children were born, six puppies.

Ye Qing hugged the soft puppy and loved it so much that he didn't let go.

We kept several dogs at home so that they could be used to keep watch at night when we were planting melons.

There is plenty of food at home now, so it is still possible to feed six puppies.

Ping'an has grown a little bit and can already sit for a while leaning on something. Every time he sees Ye Qing holding the puppies, he cries out beside them.

"Ping'an, don't you want your aunt to hold it?" Ye Qing kissed the little fat baby's face. His skin was so tender and so cute.

"Ah." Ping'an responded, but his little body had no strength, and to make the sound, he had to use all his strength.

Ye Qing continued to tease him, "I'll just hug you."

He pretended to bend down to hug the puppy, but his eyes were fixed on the little fat baby.

"Ahhh." The little fat baby stretched out his hands forward anxiously.

Ye Qing stood up, and the little fat kid stopped screaming and stared at her movements.

Ye Qing reached his hand down, and sure enough, the "ah ah" sound rang out again.

"Ping An is so smart. He knows that his aunt wants to hold a puppy. When you grow up, the puppy will be able to play with you."

Ye Qing had just held the puppy and was worried about the dog hair on his body, so he only dared to tease him from the side.

Li watched the two of them having fun and didn't care about them. She was picking wild vegetables from the mountain beside them, and only said something to Ye Qing when she was teasing her too much.

Wei Xin went to feed the ducks. She and Ye Dalang bought a piece of land by the river to build a farm.

It's close to the river and convenient for getting water.

Ye Dalang and Ye Qing agreed that once the winery was built, they would send someone to help them build it.

They pay for their own wages, and after deducting wages and money for buying chicks and ducklings from their earnings, they give some of the money to their families.

Wei Xin is a capable person. Now the breeding farm has not been built yet and the ducklings at home have not grown up yet, but she can still feed them.

Once the venue is built, hire two people to help feed the fish.

On the mountain near the village, bamboo is the most common tree, apart from the trees they planted.

During this period, after the spring rain, the villagers’ favorite thing to do is to go to the mountains to pick mushrooms and dig spring bamboo shoots.

Xiufen followed the villagers to the mountain to dig bamboo shoots several times. Looking at the mountain full of bamboos, an idea came to her mind.

She wanted to try bamboo leaf wine. Once it was brewed, the price of the wine could be lowered, and their winery would be able to sell more wine.

Xiufen is too busy to look after the children, and Tian San's family has no elderly people to help, so Tian San has to stop his work and look after the children at home.

Tian San used to be a ragtag guy, but after getting married, he has become much more reliable, and he has raised his child to be plump.

Once the mosquito coil workshop opened, all the women in the village went to work, and the housework was left to the men.

Now no one laughs at Tian San for taking care of the baby. The men in the village are all taking care of the baby while busying themselves in the fields and mountains.

Now they still compete to see who cooks the best meals and who raises the most obedient children.

The women in the village liked Ye Qing more. They used to clean the house, cook and take care of the children. The men in their families said that they enjoyed themselves at home.

Let them try it now and know how hard they worked in the past.

Both adults and children in the family earn money, and the living conditions are much better than before. We eat stewed meat every few days. This is probably what a landlord's family should be like.

It turned out that some families in the village favored boys over girls and did not treat their granddaughters as human beings. They made them do more work but received less food.

Ever since Ye Qing taught them a few words every day outside Yipinxiang and recruited them to work in the workshop, families with many girls have become envied.

Boys are not as nimble as girls and earn less money.

Working the same job, the girl brought home 500 wen every month, while the boy only brought home 300 wen. After a long time, every time she saw the clumsy boy, she wanted to scold him.

Some girls got married, and Ye Qing asked them to come back to work.

I stay in the village all day, and after a break at noon, I can go home for a walk and help my parents wash clothes.

Their husbands' families are even happier. They marry a daughter-in-law who is literate and earns more than the men in the family. She is respected by her husband's family.

When they returned home at night, Ye Qing found a few ox carts and selected a few brothers from the tribe to take them home. The journey was safe.
