Stepmother in charge: Making a fortune through farming and raising her children to fight back

Seeing that Chen hadn't said anything, Old Lady Qin patted her lightly and said, "Don't just stand there. Tell me, do you know this girl? What's she like?"

Chen was disdainful in her heart, but she wore a smile on her face: "This girl is so pretty and clever. Many young men in the village like her. If my sister-in-law's family could marry her, our home would be bustling with activity every day."

When Yun Zhenzhen saw how enthusiastic Chen was, she knew there was something fishy going on.

It seems that I can't find out anything from her. I'd better go back and deal with the things on the farm first, and then ask the other aunts in a couple of days.

If you really can't find out, you have to go to Chenjia Village to see for yourself. Don't just listen to one side of the story, what if the girl's character is good enough?

She stood up and said, "It's getting late now. The results of the field tests should be out by now. Do you want to come with me to take a look?"

When Old Lady Qin heard this, the smile on her face became even wider: "You're coming out already? Come on! Let's go and take a look. It's something new. I haven't seen it before."

The two of them rushed to the field.

It was almost evening.

Yun Zhenzhen took the data and took a look. After confirming that there was a significant inhibitory effect, she asked the village chief to come over.

"Mr. Shuze, which one is which? How do you tell if the potion is effective?" asked the village chief while looking at the wheat in the experimental area.

Qin Wen handed over a piece of paper in his hand.

The village chief took a quick glance and recognized most of the words, but he didn't quite understand how they were put together. He had never heard of things like diameter, lesion level... and area.

If it were said out of thin air, he might not believe it, but now it is written in black and white, and the words on paper are more convincing than empty words.

"Xanthium sibiricum can inhibit wheat stripe rust, and the inhibition rate reaches 70%. Wheat treated with Xanthium sibiricum extract almost did not continue to get sick, which means we can use this method to inhibit the spread of the disease." Yun Zhenzhen said in a loud voice. Her voice was not loud, but it was clearly heard by everyone.

People around gathered around to look at the wheat plants being used for the experiment.

"It's true. The disease hasn't spread."

"Look at the diseased spots here, they are obviously much smaller, while the ones that haven't been sprayed with medicine have grown wildly."

"That means it really works, doesn't it?"

"Isn't it obvious? It's more useful than anything else."

Everyone was discussing it one after another, and no one left after watching it. They took turns watching it.

The village chief stood in the center and saw the most clearly. The wheat spots did not obviously increase in size after being treated with the medicine.

An old face looked at it again and again, his face full of disbelief: "This, this really can cure diseases! Oh my God, God, God bless my Qinjia Village."

No one knew how excited he was at the moment. As the head of the village, he had witnessed with his own eyes the great losses caused by the disease many years ago, and now a cure had finally been found.

If there weren't so many people present, he would have wanted to hug Qin Yun and cry.

Yun Zhenzhen looked at the excited village chief and said calmly, "This herb can inhibit the spread of the disease, but the previous losses are irreversible. Everyone needs to go up the mountain as soon as possible to find herbs, extract the juice, and spray it."

"Of course." The village chief nodded repeatedly. "No matter how good the medicine is, it can't bring the dead back to life. If there really is such a thing, it would be a miracle drug."

Aunt Fugui was listening on the side and suddenly said, "I remember that cockleburs are poisonous. Someone once ate it as a wild vegetable and got poisoned. We wasted a lot of money to save him."

When everyone heard this, they all looked at Yun Zhenzhen who was standing in the middle.

"Yes, Xanthium sibiricum is indeed slightly poisonous." Qin Li stood in front of everyone.

During the time he was away, he often heard the doctor talk about the basic medicinal properties of herbs. Over time, he also memorized a lot of them.

After receiving a positive answer, Aunt Fugui immediately found the breaking point: "You let us pick the poisonous ones, are you trying to kill us? You are such a vicious family, what on earth are you planning?"

Some villagers who were unfamiliar with Xanthium sibiricum were hesitant when they heard this.

It is good to be able to suppress diseases, but if it is harmful to the body, you should think twice.

"Don't worry, it won't harm your health." Qin Li raised his hand and signaled everyone to be quiet. Unknowingly, the eldest brother had grown into an adult who could stand on his own.

Qin Li continued to explain: "When extracting the juice, everyone should be careful not to get it on their bodies or skin. Wash any pots, knives, and other utensils that come into contact with it before using them. This will prevent any harm to your body."

"Qin Li has a point." The village chief also stood up at this moment. "Besides, Xanthium sibiricum is only slightly poisonous. Even if accidentally ingested, it will only cause diarrhea for a few days. Some people should stop exaggerating and scaring everyone."

After saying that, the village chief glanced at her coldly.

Qin Li took out a piece of paper and placed it in front of everyone: "Write down the method and time for brewing it here. If you trust me, hurry up and go up the mountain to collect cockleburs, come to my house and learn how to do it, then go home and brew it right away."

The disease has not yet spread completely, and most of the wheat can be saved after treatment.

After saying that, a group of people hurriedly surrounded Yun Zhenzhen and the village chief and left. Joking sounds could be heard from the crowd from time to time.

"Qin Li, you've matured a lot in the past few days."

"That's right, now you can even stand up and speak, you're really brave."

"You've grown up to be quite promising."

"Oh, right, Qin Li, is he old enough to get married? Is there anyone you like? I'll introduce you to one..."

"..."

Only Aunt Fugui's family was left there, and she was so angry that she clenched her teeth.

It was obvious that her whole family was disliked before, but now they are admired by the whole village. What's more, the village chief trusts her very much and asks for her opinion on everything. What does she, a woman, know? It's just like a blind cat catching a dead mouse.

But her son Qin Li is a handsome man, and now he is making money, so he is a good young man.

It just so happened that there was a cousin in my mother's family who was still unmarried. If we could get them together, I could marry her and drive this stepmother out. Then all the money in her family would become mine.

A gleam of light flashed in Aunt Fugui's eyes, and a plan immediately came to her mind.

……

The moonlight is strong.

At this moment, Yun Zhenzhen's house was extremely lively.

A group of people gathered around a pot to learn. The aunts in the village took turns to learn the cooking techniques, for fear that if they missed even a little, their own wheat would not survive.

The people who came were not empty-handed. Some brought a bag of brown rice, some brought a basket of wild vegetables, and at the very least, they brought two bundles of firewood.

After everyone learned how to make the juice, they said thank you and hurried home to make it themselves. Under the cover of night, they poured buckets of medicine on the wheat in the field.

The entire Qinjia Village was busy all night. Some families planted more wheat and had to wait until dawn to water every field.

People say that this medicine needs to be applied every few days so that the prevention and control effect will be better.

So, everyone in the village rushed up the mountain to pick Xanthium strumarium, and Qinjia Village spent every day in busyness.
