I traveled through time and space to hunt and support my family in ancient times

On a sunny day, the men in the village swarmed to the threshing ground as if they were going to do something important.

"Hurry, let's go. Youshan has to harvest rice today!"

All the paddy fields in the village have harvested the rice and piled it on the threshing floor to dry. Jiang Yue's one acre of experimental rice has also been harvested and piled separately on the threshing floor. The harvest of this one acre of land is obviously more than that of other families, and the increase in production is certain. They just need to wait for the rice to be weighed to get the specific yield.

The threshing bed has been set up now. Since it is a big matter related to farming, naturally a lot of people gathered around.

The threshing bed is used to thresh rice. It is made of bamboo and wood, and several sparse and parallel bamboo poles are placed on the bed frame. The operator holds a small bundle of rice ears with both hands and beats it hard on the bed, and the rice grains will fall between the bamboo poles.

After the rice was threshed, there was no need to remove the husk, and the men in the village helped weigh it.

The acre of experimental rice planted by Jiang Yue yielded 540 kilograms!

The village head twisted his beard, his eyes narrowed into slits as he smiled, and said excitedly: "You are so kind, I said you are a capable girl, you can think of that breeding method at such a young age, the rice harvest has doubled. What do we farmers want in our lives is to have enough food and clothes, this is a great thing!"

After saying this, he looked at the sun and said, "The heavens are looking down on us. The weather is good this year, and the rice is growing well and the crops are good."

Grandpa Cai nodded and said, "With God's blessing, this year will definitely be a bumper harvest. This year's New Year will be a good one."

The villagers talked about this topic for a while. Those who had paddy fields asked Jiang Yue for advice on the planting method of her experimental field. They decided to follow her example and do a big job next year.

Someone with a curious mind asked Jiang Youtian: "What is the yield per mu of your rice field? Will you continue to grow rice like this in the future?"

Jiang Youtian knew that this person had bad intentions and wanted to stir up a conflict between his family and Jiang Youshan. He was not fooled and replied, "My family's yield is 280 kilograms per mu, which is better than the previous harvest. They are generous in sharing their planting methods for us to learn. If you don't want to learn, don't stand in my way. I will learn their method to grow rice next year."

The man felt humiliated and gave Jiang Youtian a cold look without saying anything.

Jiang Yue just laughed in her heart when she heard this: Jiang Youtian has brains and knows how to deal with things. He doesn't say sarcastic words, and he doesn't try to get close to others. What a pity... What a pity that the family married another troublemaker.

Jiang Zhier had lived a good life for a few months since the separation. Li loved her so much that she sent her and Jiang Changhe to Mr. Cui's academy. They didn't have to read much, just study for a year and learn some words.

But when Chen got sick with a fever, Jiang Zhi had to go to school during the day, and after school she became busy again, going into the kitchen, feeding the chickens and washing clothes.

During the farm leave, Mr. Cui helped the Li family do more things.

Li looked at her only daughter, whose face, which she had managed to whiten, had turned dark again. She felt so distressed that she said to Jiang Youtian in front of the whole family, "Our daughter is sensible. Tell her where to go in the village. Don't marry far away and get bullied. Look at this hand."

Li held up Jiang Zhi's hand, which had a few red spots on it from being burned by oil, and a few red cuts from being scratched in the ground.

Jiang Zhi had been with Jiang Xue for a long time, and spoke without restraint. She smiled at Li and said, "Then I will listen to my mother and stay in the village. I can still take care of my parents."

Li patted her and said, "Shame on you." She felt even more distressed.

Jiang Youtian glanced at Jiang Zhier's face, which was tanned as a potato, and nodded: "Just ask around in the future."

Jiang Changli looked at Jiang Zhier, then glanced at Jiang Changshun, and lowered his head to eat.

Jiang Changhe also stretched out his hand and looked at it: "Sister, do you have the ointment that Jiang Xue gave you? Give me some."

His hands were black as if they had been dug out of the earth, and there was a wound on them, which was caused by him cutting himself while learning how to cut grass.

Li was very angry because there was only one person in the family who was eating for free, and Chen, whom she married, was idle and did nothing.

"Eat your meal, man, why do you need to apply ointment?"

Jiang Changhe muttered, "It doesn't look good when my hand is exposed when I write."

Jiang Zhi said, "The ointment is on my desk. You can apply it if you want. But it will only last for a while. Once you sweat, it will disappear."

"Forget it, I don't need it."

The family stopped talking.

Chen held the bowl in her hand and felt that everyone's eyes were on her hands. She took good care of her hands. Her mother taught her to take good care of her hands since she was a child. If her hands were damaged, she would suffer for the rest of her life.

When she thought about how she had just married into the family, she felt wronged. How could a bride be asked to work right after entering the house? It wasn't like she hadn't done anything. She had only washed dishes and cooked, swept the floor and fed chickens for a few months. Working in the fields? That would cost her life. It was so hard for her to maintain good skin. How could she do the same as this yellow-haired sister-in-law? Besides, who did Changshun do less?

No, we have to find a way to let Jiang Changshun continue his studies. The mother-in-law is simply taking the wrong medicine. Her husband can't go to school after getting married? She even withdrew her husband's school and let her sister-in-law go to start education? She doesn't want to suffer this kind of pain.

Afterwards, Jiang Changshun repeatedly explained that he was not good at studying, but Chen refused to listen and did not dare to challenge Li. She privately tortured Jiang Changshun for several months before giving up. Jiang Yue's attitude towards this was: watching the show. The restlessness in Chen's eyes was too obvious.

For example, now, she was following the crowd with fire in her eyes, letting a girl like Jiang Yue steal the spotlight, which really made her uncomfortable.

However, no one paid attention to her; everyone was chatting excitedly.

The head of the village suddenly slapped his forehead and said, "Jiang Yue, this method of planting benefits the country and the people. I will go to the county town and report it. I will spread it throughout our Daqian country. Do you think it's okay?"

"Of course it's possible. When the village head reported it, he said it was planted by my father. Without his careful care, the rice wouldn't have produced this much."

The head of the village nodded, patted Jiang Youshan on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Youshan, you are blessed."

The next day, Zhai Qingya came suddenly.

The case of cheating in the imperial examination was finally solved. All the officials in Hedong County, from the prefect to the township officials, were thoroughly investigated. The principal offender was beheaded, and the accomplices were imprisoned or exiled according to their crimes.

Shen was sentenced to three years of exile in Nanling, and all his property was confiscated. His descendants were not allowed to enter the officialdom.

All the scholars and juren who passed the examination by bribing the chief examiner were stripped of their official positions and forced to pay double taxes.

His purpose of coming this time was, first, to visit, and second, to lobby.

Just when he was worrying about how to quickly improve the status of Jiang Yue's family, Meng Lizheng brought good news that seedling cultivation could double the yield. It was like someone bringing a pillow when you are sleepy. He immediately picked up his pen and wrote a memorial, emphasizing Jiang Youshan and praising his future father-in-law.

Yes, Zhai Qingya secretly made plans to conquer himself, and considered Jiang Yue's family his own, just waiting for Jiang Yue to grow up and marry her.

Jiang Yue: Have you asked the person involved?

Hedong County was without a ruler, and he was promoted from a fifth-rank official to a fourth-rank governor. Once the remaining matters here were dealt with, he would take up his post. If he left, it would not be easy to convince Jiang Yue's family to move with him.

"I'm afraid your scholar uncle is about to come back. Do you want me to take care of him for you?"
