The younger sister-in-law falsely accused the sickly uncle and ran away with the baby

Yu Ruyue also squatted down and touched the seedlings. She was extremely happy. Then everyone worked together to transport the seedlings out.

First, divide the seedlings equally in each piece of land, then insert a wooden stick tied with a string at one end of the ridge, straighten the string, tie it to the wooden stick and insert it at the other end of the ridge, and do this for ten times.

Then everyone took off their shoes and rolled up their trouser legs to their knees. Each of them carried a basket in their hands, put the rice seedlings in the basket, and planted them backwards from front to back according to the drawn lines!

Yu Ruyue also took off her shoes and socks and joined them in planting rice. After carrying the basket for a while, she felt her left hand extremely sore. As she stepped back step by step along the line, the mud under her feet tightly wrapped around her calves, making each step back very difficult. Suddenly, she couldn't pull herself out and fell directly into the paddy field.

When everyone heard the noise, they panicked and wanted to come over to help.

Liang Shulan, who was also planting rice with her daughter, walked over to her beloved daughter with a smile and pulled her up.

"Mom has already told me that most people can't do this job, but you still don't believe me."

"Back then, your mother and I were in the fields and we fell down a lot."

Yu Ruyue immediately thought of the past. Her mother had always been in poor health. She had even contracted polio due to a wrong injection when she was a child. Her left leg had atrophied, and she walked with a limp. It was with that disabled leg that Yu Ruyue walked through the muddy fields, bending over with every step, that she paid for her mother's college education and provided her with food and clothing...

She was a healthy, normal person, but she couldn't even walk in this completely soaked mud. How difficult it must have been for her mother...

She held her mother's hand tightly and stood up from the field. "Mom! Go sit by the edge of the field for a while and give me some guidance!"

Liang Shulan was helpless with Yu Ruyue and could only sit by the edge of the field and teach her daughter how to plant rice seedlings with less effort. The farmers nearby also tried it after hearing this and shared their experiences on how to plant rice seedlings faster.

For a while, the conversation became very lively.

Yu Ruyue and Liang Shulan recalled the feeling when Yu Dehou worked in the brick kiln and they, mother and daughter, depended on each other and farmed together.

But at that time, Yu Ruyue was still young and could only stand on the edge of the field and watch Liang Shulan farming, transplanting rice seedlings, weeding, and catching insects.

But now, it was Yu Ruyue working in the fields, and Liang Shulan standing on the ridge...

Yang Danniu and Sinong Shaoqing also took off their shoes and socks and joined the rice planting team.

For a moment, all that could be seen in the rice fields were the figures of people bending over to work.

Yang Jiaojiao had been observing secretly, watching Yu Ruyue take off her shoes and socks and mingle with those peasants. She felt more and more contempt for her, and more confident in herself...

After Yu Ruyue had done four rounds, she was so tired that she could hardly lift her legs.

She walked to the edge of the field with a basket and sat down. The Minister of Agriculture was a little better than her. After working for eight days, his legs became weak from exhaustion and he just sat down in the field!

When he finally climbed up to the edge of the field, he sighed, "I've studied farming for so long, but I've never put it into practice. What a shame!"

“After experiencing it now, I feel even more that these farmers are really working so hard!”

"I work so hard every day, but I can't even afford to eat and sleep."

"Oh! I really hope these seeds can grow more food so that everyone can have enough to eat."

Yu Ruyue looked at the farmers who were sweating profusely, their legs also weak, but they dared not rest for a moment, and echoed: "Don't worry! We will definitely have enough to eat."

That's it! Everyone worked from dawn to dusk, and it took seven days to plant all the paddy fields!

The seedlings were just the right size, neither too many nor too few.

Everyone was tired after so many days and wanted to have a good rest tonight. However, as soon as they lay down, the rumbling thunder outside woke everyone up from their dreams.

Everyone prayed in their hearts that the rain would not be too heavy, otherwise the seedlings they had just planted would be washed away. Even if they were not washed away, the water would submerge the seedlings and it would be difficult for them to survive.

Yu Ruyue listened to the sound of rain outside and always felt that the sound was similar to hail, hitting the roof with a crackling sound.

Yu Ruyue and Liang Shulan put on their clothes, opened the door, walked across the corridor, and hurried to An An and Ning Ning's room.

The two children were frightened by the rumbling thunder outside and the lightning that occasionally illuminated the house, and they burst into tears. The six wet nurses and four maids who were brought over surrounded the two children, but no matter how they tried to comfort them, it was no use.

Yu Ruyue looked at the two children's tiny bodies, which were trembling with fear from the huge thunder outside, and felt so distressed. So she and Liang Shulan quickly carried the children back to their room, locked the door, and brought the two children into the space.

The space was silent. Yu Ruyue and Liang Shulan placed the children in the cribs they had bought long ago. They rocked the cribs while comforting them, and the two little cuties gradually calmed down.

However, because he was frightened, he couldn't sleep well even when he was sleeping. His little body was shaking and his face was red from crying.

Yu Ruyue and Liang Shulan quickly patted the two children gently to comfort them.

After the two children fell asleep, Yu Ruyue thought about it and was still a little worried about the rice outside, so she asked her mother to stay in the space. She put on a straw raincoat and ran out in the heavy rain. As a result, as soon as she opened the gate, the rain soaked the straw raincoat completely, and there was not much difference between wearing it and not wearing it.

Many people gathered in the rice fields outside. They took shovels and pickaxes and dug a hole in the ridge of the field next to the canal to drain the water in the field to avoid too much water accumulating and submerging the rice.

Seeing everyone working so enthusiastically, Yu Ruyue remembered the bamboo pipe that was still pumping water out of the river. She braved the rain to find Wu Chang and shouted, "Wu Chang! Pull out the bamboo pipe from the river!"

The rain was pouring down, and Wu Chang shouted back, "Good!"

He quickly found someone to run towards the river, and Yu Ruyue followed closely behind. Originally, they wanted to take a shortcut by walking on the ridge of the field, but the heavy rain made the ridge muddy and slippery, blocking everyone's vision. As soon as they stepped on it, they fell down.

Yu Ruyue felt that her butt had been very hard these past two days, and she must have fallen at least five or six times.

Wu Chang quickly helped the man up, and the few of them could only go around it obediently. When they ran to the river, they found that the water level had risen, and the bamboo tube that led the water was floating down with the river. If it had not been hooked on the other side of the small raised mound, the bamboo tube would have floated down with the current!

Yu Ruyue wiped the rain from her face and quickly called out, "Everyone, stay away from the river. We're here to stop the bamboo pipe from diverting water. If it floats away, it can float away. There are so many bamboos in the nearby bamboo forest. If it floats away, we can find it again. Don't risk your life chasing it! Do you understand?"
