Chapter 289 The vicious female partner escapes to farm (39)

 Late autumn has arrived.

 The victims of the disaster in Hope Village have finally arrived—the first crop of grain planted after land reclamation has matured.

In addition to Xu Yin, there are many people who follow her to grow sweet potatoes and potatoes.

 Looking at the big, round and plump potatoes being dug out of the ground, everyone’s faces were filled with the joy of harvest.

“I didn’t expect that such big potatoes could be grown in the wasteland!”

“The yield per acre is higher than that of fertile farmland!”

 “It’s estimated that one acre is worth five or six stones!”

 “Hahaha! God sees us in pity and gives us a way to survive!”

Xu Yin sighed inwardly after hearing this. She was so happy for one acre of five to six hundred kilograms of potatoes.

  If there were not enough potatoes for sowing seeds at that time, the yield per acre would be small.

【Ding! Crack the inferior land and reward random skills—water avoidance]

 Xu Yin: Take back the complaint you just made! Today is such a good day! Not only was there a bumper harvest of food, but he also gained a new skill.

 He took a quick glance at the function of the new skill, and his beautiful eyes suddenly lit up.

You can actually go deep into the water and breathe freely without any equipment? Isn't this just like the water-repellent beads in the game?

nice one!

 Xu Yin click to use.

 She will also be a good swimmer in the future!

Who dares to call her a landlubber anymore? Come on, let’s have a competition!

 “Village Chief! What should our family do?”

 At this time, several village women came to her crying.

None of them planted potatoes. They planted three-thirds of the land with sweet potatoes and the rest with rice. But it is an inferior land after all, and no matter how carefully it is managed, the yield of rice is still very low.

 When I saw the harvested rice, I knew it was not enough without weighing it, and I immediately became a headless fly.

“Village chief, you are smart, think of a way for us, how can this little food be enough?”

“The rice seeds were brought from home when I was fleeing famine. I would rather starve than eat them along the way. As a result, the yield per acre is less than 30% of the fertile land. How will I live in the future?”

"The same goes for our family! People fled in panic and forgot a lot of things. Only grain seeds were the treasure. My father remembered them before he died. After arriving here, he worked hard for half a year and finally managed to plant only one stone. We have to set aside grain seeds, and the whole family is still waiting to eat them, but what should we do..."

Hearing this, Xu Yin sighed deeply.

　　At first, she refused to advise them to plant sweet potatoes and potatoes according to local conditions, but now they came to her for help.

If the soil quality here is good, will it still become wasteland?

 They say that the land here is of inferior quality even if it is reclaimed, and it is still necessary to grow rice that is suitable for paddy fields.

 What can she do? She is not a fairy, she can increase the yield per acre with a wave of her hand.

"Just take it as a lesson learned. Different lands have their own crops suitable for growing. It does not mean that good land will be able to grow high yields, but poor land will definitely not be able to grow crops... Fortunately, the Chinese New Year will be here soon, and we can survive the winter. Next spring I will lend you some grain seeds and let’s grow sweet potatoes and potatoes together!”

 She has taught many villagers how to grind sweet potatoes and potatoes to make sweet potato flour and potato flour.

There are so many ways to eat them. When the time comes, you can take some to the market and sell them in exchange for rice and noodles. Wouldn’t the dining table be as colorful?

 The villagers wiped away their tears after hearing what she said, and that was all they had to do.

From this incident, they came to the conclusion: Anyone who listens to the village chief is right!

Hearing that the family would be harvesting grain in the near future, Erlang took a leave of absence from his wife and took the old man's carriage back.

The old coachman has become a frequent visitor to Hope Village since he helped Xu Yin pull tea saplings several times and helped her carry things to Erlang a few times. From time to time I bring goods here to sell them, and I can make a lot of money.

The people in the village also welcomed him, and he no longer had to get up early in the morning and walk for half a day to the next town to attend the market. Moreover, the old coachman sometimes went to the county town, and the groceries he brought were much richer than those in the town.

Xu Yin is happy to see this win-win situation.

She even thought about building a small tile-roofed house at the foot of the mountain and opening a grocery store when the demand was greater. Ask the coachman to buy goods and put them in the shop to sell.

 In this way, the villagers no longer have to wait impatiently for the driver to arrive with goods.

However, there is no rush in this matter. The problem of food and clothing should be solved first. When Erlang came back for the autumn harvest, Xu Yin saw that he had lost a lot of weight. Although there was a reason for the withdrawal, studying was really hard. He said that he studied at least six hours a day.

Xu Yin couldn't help but feel distressed after hearing this. Do you have to learn like this when you are only seven years old? Wouldn't it be more miserable in the future?

  No wonder there are rumors that he fainted and fell ill halfway through the scientific examination and was carried out.

“Erlang, it’s important to study, but you also need to exercise regularly.”

Xu Yin cooked him a medicinal diet to recuperate his body, and also taught him how to do radio gymnastics for later generations.

“Sister-in-law, what kind of martial arts is this? It’s so strange! Hahahaha!”

Xu Yin glanced at him faintly: "Do you still want to have a healthy body?"

 “Think about it!”

"Then study hard! Third sister, come too, and learn with your brother! And you little guys, if you are willing, come together, it will be good for your health! If you learn, you won't suffer! If you learn, don't be fooled!"

In this way, Xu Yin led the bunch of carrot heads in the village to do radio gymnastics every morning.

She shouted the command and demonstrated at the same time.

 The children followed her example below.

On the first day, I stumbled around like I was playing with a machete, and I couldn’t tell that I was doing exercises at all.

 After a few days, it finally took shape.

 Xu Yin selected a few children who learned quickly and did well, asked them to stand in the front row and led the exercises, and gave them candy after they finished.

 The children practiced more enthusiastically when they saw that they were given candy bars to eat if they did well.

The villagers gathered around to look at it curiously, and after watching it, they couldn't help but follow suit.

“Don’t tell me, it’s really comfortable to twist your neck and turn your waist.”

“I had a harvest a few days ago and I was so tired that I couldn’t straighten my back. I practiced with the rabbit for two days and I feel much better!”

“So whatever the village chief teaches, she must have a reason for it!”

“No! If you learn, you won’t suffer! If you learn, you won’t be fooled!”

 “Yes! Let’s come together too!”

More and more villagers are joining the queue of broadcasting gymnastics.

 This was something Xu Yin never expected, and she unknowingly created the ancient square dance.

 But it would be a good thing if it could be popularized.

  Get up in the morning and do a round of radio exercises together. After each exercise, everyone starts a new day. The cohesion is much higher.

So, Li Yuanjin, who personally drove the mule cart all night to haul bricks and tiles, was shocked when he saw the empty village. He thought that bandits were attacking the village, so he abandoned the mule cart and ran home. Guess what he saw? ?

His wife led the whole village to dance and dance.

 “What do you think we are dancing about?”

 Xu Yin finished a round of broadcast exercises and was still out of breath. She paused while wiping her face with a sweat towel, thinking she heard wrongly.

“You are a great dancer, aren’t you?” The surprise on Li Yuanjin’s face was no less than hers, “Is the autumn harvest not ideal?”

 Otherwise, why would you lead the villagers to dance and pray so early in the morning?

　　　…”

After being silent for a few seconds, Xu Yin couldn't help it anymore and burst out laughing so hard that tears came out of her eyes. She pointed at him and said, "You are really..."

Li Yuanjin was confused.

Until Erlang ran up and said, "Brother, you misunderstood. My sister-in-law is teaching us to do exercises and exercise!"

　　　…”
