After the cannon fodder father and daughter married into the family, the whole family regretted it

"There are many children at home, and the candy was eaten up early."

What does Fang Tong mean? Why does he have to follow him home to grab food?

This guy is a scoundrel, how could he do such a thing!

When he thought of that scene, Cheng Dafu panicked. He looked back and saw that the man was almost close to him, so he immediately quickened his pace.

Fang Tong also quickened his pace, sticking close to him and staring at him closely: "Really?"

"Really, really not."

Cheng Dafu felt inexplicably frightened and almost ran away.

Fang Tong chased after him, stretching out his hands to grab him: "I don't believe it!"

Cheng Dafu was so scared that he ran away, screaming and squeaking. Fang Tong chased him like a hungry ghost: "Let me go to your house and take a look, let me take a look! Why are you running? Don't run!"

Cheng Dafu swore that he had never run so fast before. As soon as he got home, he locked the door without stopping and lay on the door stealthily to listen for any movement.

Little did he know that Fang Tong only scared him for a distance before he stopped and came back to take his daughter home.

What happened on the road made Fang Tong think about it all the way, and he frowned all the way home.

He has been too careless these days. Right now, every household is not getting enough to eat and is very sensitive to food. They still boil milk at home every day, which is really a bit too ostentatious.

But we can’t just leave good things unused, right?

He thought, why not close the doors and windows tightly next time when boiling milk, and also find a few more people to share the risk?

My mind never stops thinking about things.

Dinner was still dry food, big pancakes and hot water.

Qian Fengping just looked at Fang Tong with a frown, as if he was distracted. He dipped the pancake in water and dropped it on the table. He didn't notice anything wrong until he put it in his mouth, so he couldn't help but ask.

"Aren't you choking?"

Fang Tong finally came back to his senses and realized his mouth was dry, so he quickly drank some water to relieve it.

Qian Fengping was amused, then said softly, "Did something happen in the fields? What are you thinking about? You're so engrossed."

Fang Tong swallowed it before speaking: "I'm thinking, why don't we try growing some yams at home?"

"Ah? Planting yams?" Qian Fengping was startled for a moment, then asked, "How do you plant yams? Doesn't it grow wild?"

If my family hadn't discovered it a while ago, I wouldn't have known it was edible.

"Give it a try. You should always give it a try." Fang Tong already had a general idea, but he couldn't say it. He beat around the bush: "I see that the yams in the mountains all grow in the ground. Don't potatoes also grow in the ground? Why don't we try it the same way we grow potatoes?"

Qian Fengping was skeptical: "Will this really work?"

When planting potatoes, you have to wait for them to sprout, then cut the sprouts into pieces and bury them in the soil. Do you also have to cut yams into pieces? If they don't sprout, it will be a waste.

Qian Fengping was a little reluctant.

During this period of time together, Fang Tong had come to understand the woman in front of him quite well. He guessed that she must be worried about the food again, so he advised her, "If it doesn't work once, try twice. Let's try more. If it works, the gains will far outweigh the losses."

Qian Fengping was persuaded and began to think about other things: "That's fine, but where should we plant the yams?"

"We've planted winter wheat on all our dry land, leaving us with no room to grow yams."

In fact, the main reason is that I am reluctant to use dry land to try to grow yam. After all, if I plant one more wheat seedling this year, I will have an extra harvest next year!

As for the best paddy fields, they were even more reluctant to give them up.

"How about we try to open up new land after we finish this?"

Yams grow in the mountains, so there is no problem planting them there.

Qian Fengping frowned: "Second brother still needs to be taken care of for a while, I have to stay at home to take care of him, you are tired enough working alone, and you still have to go to open up wasteland, how can you handle it?"

"Don't exhaust yourself."

Fang Tong thought about this and laughed out loud: "It's okay, Qian Niang, don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

When his two "good nephews" come over tomorrow, we will have labor force at home.

"Mom, I think we can give it a try." Qin Yan said, "It will only take half an acre of land. It won't take much time."

He thought of the reward that the system had not given him today, the method of growing yam. If he could get it, growing yam at home would be more assured.

It was quite a coincidence. He just drew the method of planting yam at noon, and when he came back in the evening, his uncle said he wanted to plant yam.

Qian Fengping approved of this method: "Do we also need to cut the yams into pieces and plant them?"

"Yes, I'll cut it when the time comes." Fang Tong responded.

After all, yam is not like potato. You can just cut it and plant it as soon as it sprouts. But yam needs to be cut from the top.

Qian Fengping thought about this question: "Does the yam also need to sprout? I will try tomorrow to see if I can make the yam sprout by covering it."

Fang Nanzhi was tired from working in the fields, but now she felt a little more energetic. Upon hearing this, she joined in: "Okay, okay, then we should put a whole potato in and try it. That's how you cover it too!"

Anyway, the yam won’t go bad if you cover it with soil for two days without cutting it.

The three of them were discussing heatedly, and the young man didn't think much about it. Soon, he joined the discussion.

After dinner, the family decided on several preliminary plans.

Qian Fengping went to milk the cows as usual. This time, when she was cooking the milk, Fang Tong had learned his lesson and closed the kitchen doors and windows tightly. He also relayed what Cheng Dafu said on the way to the mother and son.

Now it was Qian Fengping's turn to feel uneasy. With a look of fear on her face, she checked again and made sure it was tightly closed before she started to boil the milk.

The woman stirred the bottom of the pot from time to time, and the aroma of milk gradually wafted out.

Fang Nanzhi took a small stool and sat in a corner of the kitchen where she was not in the way, waiting obediently, sniffing from time to time with her little nose, occasionally helping out, waiting for her daily milk.

After the milk boiled and the fire was turned off, Fang Tong took out a few clean bamboo tubes and started pouring milk into them.

After packing up, he said goodbye and went out.

Fang Nanzhi stared longingly at her father's back as he walked away... No, to be precise, her father had a few bamboo tubes full of milk hanging around his waist, his eyes full of reluctance and heartache.

If Qian Fengping saw this, she would definitely sigh.

The father and daughter are exactly the same, one is very stingy and the other is a little stingy.

The stingy guy quickly walked to the village chief's house and knocked on the door rudely.

The village chief had also worked on the farm all day and was so tired that he had just laid down on the kang. Before he could relax, he was interrupted by a knock on the door.

The old man got up impatiently and went to open the door, his mind full of thoughts.

This noise sounds like Fang Tong. It shouldn't be like this. Why would he come home so late at night?

As he was thinking, he opened the door and what came into his sight was Fang Tong's smiling face.

The gangster is smiling and is bound to make trouble!

The village chief felt a headache as soon as he saw him and wanted to close the door immediately.

"Hey hey hey, you old man?"

Fang Tong was quick-witted and quick-handed. He blocked the wooden door, and then immediately pushed over the old man and squeezed in through the gap in the door.

The old village chief was disgusted by the big man getting so close to him, and he immediately moved away: "Hey, what are you doing here?"
