The whole family travels through time and space, and the three of them struggle together

Zhou Dajiang had no idea what the villagers in the neighboring village thought, and he was worried and angry at the moment.

The reason was simple: it was time to plant crops in the next two days. Yu Quan, however, told him that it was time to transplant the peach saplings in the greenhouse.

The temperature in the greenhouse is high. Although the stove is no longer burning and there is still some ventilation during the day, the average temperature is still several degrees higher than outside. If the peach seedlings are not moved out, they will bloom in the greenhouse.

This doesn't work!

But he was so busy that he couldn't take care of anything else. His teeth were all swollen from the inflammation.

Chen Xiuying also knew why he was angry, and she had been thinking about this for the past two days.

Finally, Chen Xiuying made the decision, "Well, you ask Uncle Zhang to find someone to transplant the saplings. I'll ask my sister-in-law, my brother-in-law, and the others, along with Qing'er and Dadezi, to plant the land."

Zhou Dajiang: "I also want to plant my mother's land as well."

Chen Xiuying nodded in agreement, "Don't worry! He can't run away."

So Zhou Dajiang hurried to find Village Chief Zhang again.

"Uncle Zhang, please help me gather some more people. The peach saplings in my shed are about to bloom if they're not moved. The wages are the same as before, and the more people the better."

Village head Zhang has been studying the spring planting these days. Although his family has rented out all the land, he still has to take time to check it out. Just as he was thinking about it, Zhou Dajiang came unexpectedly.

Village head Zhang: "Okay! Prepare the money and go home and wait. Someone will be there tomorrow." It's just looking for someone, no big deal.

Then he thought for a moment and reminded, "It's time to plant the land. Are you still planting wheat this year?"

Zhou Dajiang nodded and said, "Plant! Xiuying will take care of this. She plans to plant it together with her sister-in-law and brother-in-law."

"That's fine, as long as you keep it in mind. If you're too busy, I have a farmhand at home who can help you out for a day or two."

"Okay, thank you, Uncle Zhang. I'll go back and ask my wife. If I need anything, I'll come back to you."

Zhou Dajiang thanked the head of the village, Zhang, and then he and Yu Fuan quickly went to the money shop to exchange silver and money. This time, the two of them did not wander around the town anymore. They did not have the time for that, so they went home to plant as many trees as possible.

Chen Xiuying also went to the workshop to find her sister-in-law and brother's wife to discuss farming together.

Zhou's mother was also in the workshop. After hearing Chen Xiuying's proposal to cultivate her plot of land as well, she refused, saying, "That won't do. I'd better stay with you!"

After that, he said to Chen's mother: "My dear, why don't we hire two more people? It's busy in spring and the family is short of manpower. We can hire two more people from outside the family. When someone is too busy, they can ask for leave."

Mother Chen: "Okay, I'll listen to you." Anyway, they are paid by the piece, and hiring a few people will cover the cost, so it's not a loss. As long as Wang is in charge of the key parts, it will be fine.

So, Zhou's mother led her three daughters-in-law, plus Dadezi and Qing'er, and they began to study how to cultivate the twenty acres of land.

Although Zhou Dajiang's family originally bought seven acres of land, they planned to plant some saplings and various beans on this seven acres. Therefore, they planned to plant wheat on the five acres they bought later, so that each family would have five acres of land, a total of twenty acres.

The next morning, just as Village Chief Zhang said, there was another group of people standing outside Zhou Dajiang's house. Everyone knew that his family was going to plant trees, so they all came with their own shovels.

Although the land had been cultivated, some families had less land and could plant it a few days later. Others had more laborers and could spare one or two people from working to earn money, which was enough to keep them busy.

Zhou Dajiang thanked everyone. This time he divided them into groups. One group followed him to dig holes on the mountain first, another group followed Yu Quan to the shed to dig saplings, and Yu Fuan was left behind to drive the car back and forth to transport the saplings.

Zhou Dahai and Zhou Dahe also had a day off today, so they came over to help. They had originally wanted to help with the farming, but Zhou's mother didn't want them to, so she told them to help the second son plant trees, as they had enough manpower.

Seeing that Zhou Dajiang had left Yu Fuan behind, Zhou Dahai hurriedly said, "I'll drive the ox cart." He was worried about someone else driving the cart, as they had to make many trips a day, and he didn't want his calf to get tired out again.

It turned out that before the Lunar New Year, Zhou Dajiang noticed the cow's belly had grown larger. He thought it had fattened her up, so he told Zhou Dahai about it when he got home. Zhou Dahai was concerned and went to town after the Lunar New Year to see a livestock expert. The expert said the cow was pregnant. It was likely because the cow had only recently calved when Zhou Dajiang bought it, so it wasn't noticeable. Seeing the belly getting bigger day by day, he estimated that the baby would be born in three or two months.

Therefore, Zhou Dahai was more nervous than anyone else. This calf was his! His family was going to have a cow too!

Seeing his brother's nervousness, Zhou Dajiang agreed to his brother's wishes, having him drive the oxcart to transport the seedlings back and forth. He also asked Yu Fuan to lead two people to transplant the sour peach seedlings on the slope.

Zhou Dajiang was worried that if the two kinds of peach saplings were mixed together, the sweet ones would no longer be sweet, so he planted all the sweet peach saplings on Xiaomao Mountain and all the sour peach saplings on the slope.

Therefore, the villagers of Yangliu Village would watch the fun in their own yards when they had free time.

The people who bought Xiaomao Mountain are really busy. Look, they've got a whole bunch of people here. Some are digging holes, some are planting saplings, and some are burying the soil. Oh my! And there's even a truck hauling saplings up the mountain!

Also, don't you think he's stupid? The saplings aren't very big yet, yet he's leaving such a big gap. Wouldn't it be better to plant some crops on the land he dug out with such great effort? It's a waste to leave so much space!

Zhou Dajiang, who was said to be stupid, led everyone to plant the saplings in the front. Yu Quan then led the people who were digging up the saplings to stack tree trays for the saplings. Zhou Dahai also drove the ox cart to pull the saplings and then to pull water. After the saplings were planted, they had to be watered thoroughly.

In this way, fortunately there were many people and few peach seedlings, a large group of people took a whole day to transplant the peach seedlings.

The remaining fruit tree seedlings can be planted slowly the next day.

Therefore, Zhou Dajiang asked those who were in a hurry to farm to go back and farm first, and those who could handle it continued to help him plant fruit saplings.

Before planting the trees, he divided the area for peach trees and fruit trees. Although they were all on the south side of the mountain, peach trees were planted on the east side and fruit trees were planted on the west side. Because of the mountain's terrain, saplings of the same height were planted on a platform to prevent the soil from being washed away by watering when it rained.

On Chen Xiuying's side, because the ox cart could not be turned back, she went to the village head Zhang's house to rent an ox. Dadezi plowed the field in the front, and the four people, including the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, plus Qing'er, a total of five people, sowed seeds and cultivated the soil in the back.

Mrs. Yu takes care of the children at home and is responsible for three meals a day.

In this way, the five people worked hard for three or four days and planted all the land.

Next is the vegetable garden. This year, the vegetable garden of the old house belongs to Zhou Dahai and his mother. Zhou Dajiang and Zhou Dahe's families use their backyards as vegetable gardens. This time, Da Dezi is not needed, so Zhou's mother brings her three daughters-in-law and Qing'er to plant vegetables in their own vegetable gardens.

After Jinmanniang and the others finished sowing, Zhou Dajiang was almost done with his work.

All that remains is to plant potatoes and some beans.
