The little ancestor of the family

Zhuangzi is some distance away from the capital, and people in Zhuangzi usually don't have the opportunity to go into the city.

So they heard a lot about the eldest lady, but even the village head had never seen what the eldest lady looked like.

As soon as we saw her today, everyone understood clearly. No wonder everyone said that this young lady had outstanding appearance.

At first glance, he is truly incomparable to ordinary people.

Not to mention anything else, just the skin color as tender as scallion white is something that people like them cannot have.

Ye Xinran ignored everyone's gaze and followed the village head inside.

When the village head was about to invite her into the house, he said, "We don't have much time, so forget about having tea or anything like that. Just take me directly to the field."

"well!"

Head of Zhaozhuang did not dare to delay and immediately led his men to the end of the field.

At the same time, all the workers were concentrated in the fields.

By the time Ye Xinran arrived at the edge of the field, everyone else had also arrived.

There were eight men and two women, ten people in total.

The village head asked very respectfully: "Miss, do you think these people are enough? If not, I will send more people over."

"enough."

Ye Xinran looked at the cultivated area, which was about seven or eight acres. Once these people became familiar with the process, it would probably take three or four days to finish planting.

"What are we going to plant this time? Is it a rare and precious species?"

The village head rubbed his hands, feeling a little unsure.

The eldest lady came here in person, this thing must be very important. If he can't grow it well, he doesn't know whether he can keep his position as the head of the village.

“Rare but not expensive.”

Ye Xinran said.

The climate in the capital is much better than that in northern Xinjiang.

According to the era in which I lived, the temperature in northern Xinjiang was equivalent to that in northeast China, and the temperature in Beijing was similar to that in Hebei.

It should be very suitable for growing corn.

Hearing that it was not that precious, Zhuangtou finally felt relieved.

"Then please ask Miss to teach us how to plant!"

Ye Xinran turned around and asked Ding Qiao to take out the corn seeds to show everyone.

"This is corn. This is what we want to plant."

Everyone looked at the golden corn and was very curious, "Is this food? How do you eat it?"

"After grinding it, you can cook porridge or make flatbreads, both are delicious." Ye Xinran said, "But there are too few seeds now, so we can't cook them. When the autumn harvest comes, I guarantee that the people in our village will be the first to eat them."

"Okay!"

"We can try something new."

The servants on the farm looked at each other.

All showed happy expressions,

In Beijing, working for the Leng family is better paid than working for any other family.

Not only is the pay high, the owner is also generous and gives everyone some good things from time to time.

So everyone worked extra hard, for fear that the owner would find fault with them.

The land had been plowed over and was very flat and soft. Ye Xinran then taught them step by step how to measure the width of the ridges and asked them to prepare the ridges according to the specified width.

After seven or eight ridges of land were plowed, Ye Xinran asked them to stop and everyone learned from her how to dig holes and sow seeds.

"Starting from the edge of the field, each tree is about two feet apart."

As Ye Xinran spoke, Xiao Huaian used a pickaxe to dig two holes on the ridge of the field.

He followed Ye Xinran's instruction of two feet and the distance between each pit was about two feet.

Everyone watched Xiao Huaian work, and no one dared to say a word.

According to their guess, the person digging the ground now should be the eldest daughter's husband.

This guy looked like someone who was not easy to deal with, and no one even dared to persuade him not to work.

Xiao Huaian was very proud looking at the hole he had dug.

Since she did such a good job of digging, Ye Xinran should praise herself.

However, Ye Xinran did not receive his look of seeking praise, but pointed at the pit and said to everyone: "The depth of the pit can be as deep as it is now."

As she spoke, she took out two corn seeds from the bag and threw them into the pit. She spread the soil under her feet, covered the pit, and stepped on it to make it firm.

"To ensure the germination rate, put two seeds in each hole."

Ye Xinran said as she looked at the few seeds.

Normally, three seeds should be planted to be safe, but considering the area of ​​the land, three seeds are obviously not enough to fill the plantation.

After the seedlings emerge, the extra ones can be transplanted, but that is another story.
