The whole family traveled through ancient times with their house
Chapter 189 Abnormality
After listening to Zhang Xiaoqi, Captain Dong came to a conclusion. Regarding the seed drill, he should just keep the matter to himself for the time being and not tell others about it, as it would affect the spring sowing of the Thirteen Banners.
Thinking about the proportion of grain produced by the Thirteen Banners in the entire Qianhu Division, Captain Dong instantly had a new place to go. "Let's go and check on Uncle Zhou Er."
"okay."
"Hey, you guys..." Zhang Xiaoqi wanted to say, "You're so mean." But those guys were urging their horses to gallop so fast that they were already two miles away. He only saw a few horse tails swaying behind him.
"Across the river is Madam Jiang's territory."
“This just looks different.”
"How can they be the same? Looking at the paddy field, it looks different from the one Lao Zhang and his friends have."
"Don't let Lao Zhang and his wife hear you say this, or they will fight you to death."
"I'm telling the truth. Look at the land that Madam Jiang has cultivated. It's straight and level, and looks beautiful no matter how you look at it."
"General Ming once said when he came here that the fields cultivated by Madam Jiang are more beautiful than other people's gardens."
"I think so too. Those flowers are red and cracked, and they are not as beautiful as the neat green crops planted by Madam Jiang. Besides, the food grown by Madam Jiang can fill their stomachs, and those people can eat flowers when they are hungry."
"Pfft~ I say, Old Zhou, that's elegant."
"You dare to say that Madam Jiang is not elegant? I will tell Madam Jiang that I will not give you any delicious food in the future, not even the rice and corn she grows."
"Tsk, don't make up stories about me. I didn't say that."
Captain Dong didn't want to listen to their quarrels, so he looked at the paddy fields flowing down the Yan River and said casually, "I wonder how many acres of paddy fields Madam Jiang has planted this year."
"There are at least ten acres here, and I don't know how many acres there are downstream."
"I saw them tidying up the paddy fields before, and they said it looked like there were thirty acres over there."
"Doesn't Madam Jiang have forty acres of paddy fields? My dear, we must try the white rice grown by Madam Jiang this year."
"I wanted to try it last year, but the boss wouldn't let me, saying there weren't enough to go around for rice seeds."
“That was certainly the case last year.”
"Boss, look at the rice fields in the Thirteen Banners this year. They're all connected. We should be able to have a taste of them."
"If there are any extra this year, I want to sell them to the capital."
"Boss, why do you want to sell everything?"
"Yeah. As long as it's grown and brewed by Madam Jiang, the boss wants to sell it to others."
"I only sell what Madam Jiang grows because it's good. If it weren't good, I wouldn't sell it either."
"That is."
A few people chatted all the way before they reached the downstream.
"Ouch!"
Looking out over the fields, all he saw was paddy fields. Captain Dong's expression changed. He urged his horse forward, and after a while, he gradually slowed down.
Guo Xiucai and Zhou Dasheng followed closely behind. Zhou Dasheng looked at the endless paddy fields and shouted, "It looks like they are sowing seeds in these paddy fields. Otherwise, I would definitely take off my shoes and run a few laps in there."
"You can't come in now. Come when the harvest is coming, and we'll all let you cut the rice."
"Hahaha~"
"Hahaha…"
Everyone burst into laughter, but Zhou Dasheng replied nonchalantly, "Just cut it, as if no one has ever cut it before. Besides, since we're doing the same work, everyone should have the same idea as me, willing to come to Madam Jiang's house to work."
"hold head high."
"I'm just thinking about the delicious food at Madam Jiang's house."
"Of course. We're doing the same job, so why not choose the better one when we have a choice?"
"I said there was something in Lao Zhou's head."
"of course."
Uncle Zhou Er was picking vegetables at the kitchen door. When he looked up, he saw several figures coming towards him on the dirt road opposite.
Uncle Zhou knew who these figures were without even looking closely. He stood up and greeted them, "You're here. Come and sit down."
"Yes, Second Uncle, we're walking around with the eldest brother to see how the spring sowing is going."
"Haha, there's nothing wrong with the Thirteen Banners' spring sowing."
"Well, we just looked along the way. The fields of the Thirteen Banners, whether they are paddy fields or dry land, are all very well maintained. They are the best among our thousand-household units."
"With Madam Jiang leading the way, the good days of the Thirteen Banners are yet to come."
"Yes."
Zhuang Dahai and others who were working in the fields came over to greet the captain when they saw him coming.
"Master Qianhu."
"Lord Senhu!"
"Hey, hey, how are you guys doing here?"
"Thank you, Captain, for your concern. We brothers are doing well."
Uncle Zhou Er pointed to the chicken coop he had just built in front and said, "Mrs. Jiang even asked Jiang Zhan to buy us thirty chicks. She said we can eat their eggs as we want so we don't have to be reluctant to eat them."
"That's a good idea."
"It's very good. Madam Jiang even asked Jiang Zhan to ask us if we want to raise a piglet. We have the final say on when to slaughter the pigs in winter or during the New Year, and the pork will belong to us."
"Second Uncle, you have to agree to this, and then we will come over to eat meat."
"Okay, I'll tell Jiang Zhan when he comes over tonight. But I want to raise two more. We can keep one and give the rest to Madam Jiang. After all, Madam Jiang is our boss."
"Second uncle is right. We have no shortage of pig grass and wild vegetables here." Zhuang Dahai took the lead in agreeing, and the other brothers followed suit.
They have to thank Lord Qianhu and Madam Jiang for their good life today.
At night, Jiang Yan, who slept like a pig after becoming pregnant, was awakened by the sound of dripping rain.
Just as she was about to turn over, Ye Zhan pulled her into his arms. "Wife, the weather is still cold, don't kick off the quilt."
"Husband, you misunderstood me. I just want to turn over." Jiang Yan said and broke free from Ye Zhan's arms. She found a position that she thought was most comfortable and prepared to continue sleeping.
only…
Maybe the sound of rain outside was a little loud, Jiang Yan's mind became clearer and she no longer felt sleepy.
"daughter in law?"
"I'm not sleepy anymore."
"Is the rain too loud and keeping you awake?"
"Maybe!"
"Or, I'll go home with you and get some sleep."
"Row."
When the couple returned home, Ye Zhan was no longer sleepy. Seeing that his wife was still awake, he said to her, "Why don't we go outside to take a look? We haven't been outside much recently because of the planting."
"..." Jiang Yan nodded, and Ye Zhan picked up his wife without saying anything and walked outside.
Soon, they arrived outside the courtyard.
"Wife, look?"
"what happened?"
"Wife, why do I feel that the white mist is like a living thing, gathering around you." This phenomenon was too abnormal, and Ye Zhan wanted to carry his wife back to the house.
