After dying early, I traveled to ancient times and became a boy

The next morning, Ye Xunqing woke up at dawn. He left a note for Mo Yuyan, asking him and Ye Xunbai to go find the Third Grandma together, and then went to the fields with Feng Jingheng.

Farmers are accustomed to eating two meals a day, especially during the busy farming season.

Ye Xunqing must eat three meals a day without fail, and each meal must be nutritionally balanced, otherwise an imbalance will shorten his life.

Under his influence, Feng Jingheng also got used to eating three meals a day.

They didn't have time to eat at home this morning, so Ye Xunqing brought the food to the field. After working for a while, the two of them sat on the edge of the field to eat breakfast.

Food provides energy, especially meat. So even in the morning, Ye Xunqing prepared a meat dish. It wasn't a fancy dish, just the meat patties he'd baked the night before. They were baked dry and easy to chew, making them perfect for a quick energy boost.

"The environment is so nice!" Ye Xunqing breathed in the fresh air. He felt that the air was really sweet, and seemed to have a strange smell, which was very pleasant.

In fact, it is the smell of rice straw. There is water inside the rice straw. After it is cut, the water soaked in the fragrance of rice straw flows out and emits a special smell.

However, Ye Xunqing only knew how to eat rice and didn't know how to study these things.

Sometimes, Ye Xunqing also regretted that he did not read more books on agriculture in his previous life, otherwise he might be able to find hybrid rice to increase rice yield.

His thoughts drifted away, and Ye Xunqing pulled them back together, saying, "Only when you're well fed and well-drinking can you have the strength to work."

Feng Jingheng nodded and stuffed the steamed bun into his mouth.

"Are you here so early?" Feng Jinghua came over, carrying a rope and a sickle. He also had one mu of land, one piece worth four cents and one piece worth six cents, next to Feng Jing's.

"Brother, have you had breakfast?" Ye Xunqing called him over. "Take some of the steamed buns and meat patties I made."

Feng Jinghua walked over and said, "Not yet. I'll go back and eat at noon."

"We brought a lot, you can take some and you don't have to go back for lunch." Feng Jingheng valued time very much. He didn't want Ye Xunqing to accompany him to work in the fields, so he even saved the time to go home for lunch.

"That's fine." Feng Jinghua stood there chewing on a steamed bun. "Xiaoqing, pour me a bowl of water. My steamed bun is a bit too chewy."

Ye Xunqing asked him to sit down and eat. "No hurry, take your time." Then he poured him a bowl of porridge and said, "Drink it. If you don't finish it, it will go bad soon."

Feng Jinghua was not picky and drank a big bowl of it in one gulp.

While they were having breakfast, people started coming to the fields one after another.

"Hey, Brother Hua, why are you eating here?" A man in a linen open vest came over, carrying a fork. "Oh my god, you're eating so well so early in the morning. Steamed buns, porridge, and two side dishes. What's that? It looks like meat."

"It's a burnt cake." Ye Xunqing lied calmly, "Hey, food is precious. Even if this cake is burnt, I can't bear to throw it away."

Not to mention burnt, even if it turns into charcoal, farmers are reluctant to throw it away.

Feng Jinghua glanced at Ye Xunqing and said nothing.

The visitor paused, "Really? Really?" He didn't quite believe it, so he said, "Brother Heng, you've been having a good time lately! I heard you made a lot of money some time ago, a full ten taels of silver!"

"Ten taels of silver?" Ye Xunqing chuckled, "Are you kidding? If we had ten taels of silver, would we still be sitting here to eat?"

The man touched his nose and said, "I just heard it from others."

Ye Xunqing thought to himself: These people are really gossipy. Haha, gossiping about everything will only hurt you.

"Don't listen to their nonsense, it's not true." Feng Jingheng said, "If we had that kind of money, we would have built our own house long ago."

The man thought about it and felt that it made sense. He heard that Feng Jingheng's wife did not get along with her parents-in-law and would fight eight times a day. If Feng Jingheng really had money, she would have moved out long ago.

"Oh, I misheard then." The man had other things to do, so he didn't stay any longer. "I'm leaving first."

After he left, Feng Jinghua said to them, "Don't show off your wealth. You two should be more careful in the future."

Ye Xunqing said, "I understand, big brother."

It was unbearable. He had only made a small fortune, hadn't he? Why was everyone so obsessed with his little money? Was it really that much? The money he had earned so far wasn't even a fraction of his old pocket money.

After dinner, Ye Xunqing and Feng Jingheng packed up their things, then rested for a while to digest the food before going to work in the fields.

Only when you are full can you have the energy to work. Feng Jingheng already has plenty of energy, so he carried the rice very quickly today.

Ye Xunqing was harvesting rice while Feng Jingheng was sending it home. They worked together very well and had almost finished harvesting all the rice in the field in half a day.

It was hot at noon, so Ye Xunqing found a place with a big tree to cool down for a while, while Feng Jingheng went to deliver the last batch of rice in the morning and brought some water with him.

Ye Xunqing picked some half-green and half-yellow dogtail grass, used it in his hand to weave a bracelet, and planned to give it to Feng Jingheng later.

But the bracelet was not woven, and trouble came.

Chen Jinhua stood in front of Ye Xunqing without saying a word. Ye Xunqing looked up at her and said calmly, "Second Mother, you are blocking my light. Please move aside."

Chen Jinhua glared at Ye Xunqing, "You're living a good life!"

Ye Xunqing smiled slightly, "Yes, having food and drink and being able to lie down and rest, I say one thing and no one dares to say another, this kind of life is indeed not bad."

"You, you don't care about your father and your brother anymore?" Chen Jinhua asked loudly.

Her voice attracted other people. They all knew about the things happening in Ye Laosi's family. They also knew that Ye Laosi and Ye Xunqing had severed their relationship, but even if the bones were broken, the tendons were still connected, and Ye Xunqing could not erase this relationship.

"Who?" Ye Xunqing said without any regard for his relatives. "My father, who? Didn't my father die a long time ago? Oh, you are blaming me for not visiting his grave, right? Okay, I'll go tomorrow."

You don't have to choose a good day to visit the graves, you can go any day.

"Your father, I'm talking about your father!" Chen Jinhua almost jumped up.

"Then I didn't." Ye Xunqing grinned, "I was born from a crack in the rock, so I have a heart of stone. I won't listen to anything you say."

Chen Jinhua saw that Ye Xunqing would not cherish their old friendship, so she changed her attitude, "Qing'er, please consider this as Second Mother's plea to you, okay? Dayong is already fifteen, and it's time for him to get married. The girl asked for six taels of silver, but we don't have that much money. Look, as your brother..."

"How can you get married if you haven't even come up with six taels of silver?" Ye Xunqing interrupted, "Second Mother, this is your fault. How can you, as a mother, not even come up with six taels of silver? How can your son get married if you're like this?"
