She transmigrated into a widow and farmed to raise vests.
Chapter 50 Cousin
In the end, everyone agreed to use manure to irrigate the ground.
Qin Yu seized the opportunity and had Li Yang retrieve the rice seeds that were soaking in the river.
As people's living conditions improved in later generations, many things were replaced.
Previously, less than 20 kilograms of rice seeds were needed per mu (unit of land area) for transplanting rice seedlings.
After leveling the land, water was pumped into the fields, and then rice seedlings were planted row by row.
The water in the rice paddy can be kept fully infiltrated for three to five days, reducing the need for watering and replanting later on.
Later, machines replaced manual tilling, so they used the method of sowing rice seeds.
It saves you the hard work of bending over and planting rice seedlings on an acre of land.
However, the amount of rice seeds used per acre more than doubled.
Later, it will be necessary to replant seedlings. If the rice seedlings are not planted evenly, the sparse areas will need to be replanted.
And fetching water didn't save much trouble either.
These were all taught to her by her relatives before they died.
Children from poor families mature early; she even helped with rice planting and farming during holidays, and she was adept at all of these tasks.
Qin Yu took out the rice seeds and laid them out one by one for everyone to see.
"After these seeds sprout, find an open space and some dry grass."
Scatter the seeds on the open ground and cover them with plenty of hay.
His movements were skillful; he didn't look like someone who couldn't do farm work.
Everyone saw it.
He silently took back what he had said.
As he sowed the seeds, he was explaining things to everyone.
"The rice seeds will sprout well in just ten days, and they can grow to the length of your forearm in a month, at which point you can start transplanting them!"
"It looks simple, nothing difficult!"
Liu Zheng watched from the side, his eyes full of admiration as he looked at Qin Yu.
Because of the close proximity, it's possible to get close to him almost anywhere.
As I was speaking, I looked up and saw his profile.
His face was fair and rosy, and his delicate skin was covered with a light sheen of sweat.
It is crystal clear and looks very beautiful.
Get closer, and you'll notice a faint fragrance emanating from her.
It has a refreshing and pleasant taste.
Liu Zheng had previously only thought the man was very handsome, but now he had a strange feeling.
While I was lost in thought, I heard him speak.
"It's really not a difficult thing. We're all farmers, so this won't stump you. I just need to tell you how to do it, and you'll all understand!"
This wasn't flattery; it was stating the facts.
Farmers may not be able to win political games, but that doesn't mean they know nothing.
In fact, they know quite a lot, especially about farming.
So they will understand after a little explanation.
"This is enough to grow an acre of land!"
"Young Master Qin, I didn't expect that someone as refined as you could speak so eloquently."
Zhao De, who had previously been clamoring that he was incompetent, no longer held the same attitude.
Qin Yu explained slowly, but since there were no seedlings to transplant, he could only explain verbally and couldn't demonstrate for them.
"In a month, the rice seedlings here can be transplanted. At that time, I will lead everyone to do it once, just like now. After you go back today, you will cultivate the seeds. In three to five days, scatter the seeds in the soil and cover them with straw. You will be able to finish learning and go back to transplant the seedlings in time!"
"If anyone has any questions, I'll be waiting for you here at the county government office!"
Qin Yu finished speaking, word by word, without any arrogance or sense of superiority.
Their words bridged the gap between them.
So when she finished speaking, everyone present nodded in agreement.
This time, no one raised any objections.
Seeing Qin Yu's explanation and techniques, I felt that he was very skilled.
Therefore, they were free from prejudice.
"Alright, now that everyone knows, let's go home and start breeding, and do some preparations for irrigating the fields with manure. There are many people in the village, and we need to teach everyone how to do these things."
Liu Zheng gave the order and dismissed the crowd.
The village chief led his villagers back home, and they were still discussing how the trip had been worthwhile.
After everyone had left, Liu Zheng finally asked the question that had been bothering him.
"Young Master Qin, you really don't look like someone who knows how to farm. Can you really guarantee that you can grow anything?"
"Lord Liu, please don't underestimate me!"
A hint of indifference appeared on Qin Yu's lips.
"Lord Li, if you have nothing else to attend to, I'll head back now!"
Qin Yu had already decided to go invisible. The matter here was now settled.
They were waiting for Li Yang to fulfill his promise and give them that mountain.
So she can focus on her own things now and won't need to travel back and forth anymore!
"Young Master Qin, don't be in such a hurry!" Liu Zheng stopped Qin Yu from leaving.
Having witnessed his abilities, they wanted him to visit Yuzhou so that the people of Yuzhou could learn to grow rice.
"Is there anything else, Lord Liu?" Qin Yu asked, somewhat puzzled.
Just as Liu Zheng was about to speak, a sweet, cloying voice rang out from outside the door.
"Cousin...cousin!"
The group looked towards the door and saw a chubby girl run in.
The long red dress flowed gracefully as she ran.
It's just that they are relatively heavy, so they move relatively slowly.
She ran excitedly towards the group, her eyes fixed on Liu Zheng.
"Wang Jiaojiao?" Liu Zheng gave her a forced smile.
He was clearly not happy to see her arrive.
"Cousin, you've been here for days! Why haven't you come to visit me? If my father hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known you were here!"
As Wang Jiaojiao spoke, her chubby cheeks with two dimples made her look incredibly cute.
Liu Zheng looked at her with some resistance, after all, they were separated by several collateral branches.
If I remember correctly, this family visited when I was ten years old.
She wasn't this fat back then.
"It's been so many years! You still recognize me? I didn't recognize you at all!"
Liu Zheng's words were pointed, but Wang Jiaojiao didn't take them to heart.
"Cousin, are you done with your work? Father asked me to invite you back for dinner and to stay at our Prince's Mansion for a few days!"
Wang Jiaojiao pulled Liu Zheng and tried to walk outside.
Liu Zheng felt a chill and didn't want to go to the Wang family.
This girl said she wanted to marry him when she was little, but I don't know if she's given up on that idea now. How could she dare to go?
"Young Master Qin, Lord Li, I've been away for a while now. With so many matters to attend to as the prefect, I must return now. In a month, I will personally learn rice planting from Young Master Qin. I'll head back to my residence now!"
After Liu Zheng finished speaking, he turned and walked outside.
Seeing this, Wang Jiaojiao immediately followed him outside.
Even taking two steps at a time, he couldn't keep up with Liu Zheng.
As she ran, she called out, "Cousin, don't rush, cousin... wait for me!"
Qin Yu and Li Yang were still a little confused.
Seeing Qin Yu's puzzled look, Li Yang then began to explain.
"This is Wang Jiaojiao, the daughter of the wealthy Wang family!"
Qin Yu nodded, watching Liu Zheng flee in panic, and only then did he realize that Liu Zheng was so afraid of seeing his cousin.
She remembered that if Liu Zheng tried to test her again, she would just go to Wang Jiaojiao!
"Lord Li, our agreement must stand!"
