Chapter 306: Helping with Farming

Shen Hongjun took people to live in the village like this, and the villagers knew that this was a person sent by the imperial court to protect the big guy, so they treated these soldiers very enthusiastically. Village Chief Zhao has already instructed the people in the village that the eldest girl and the little daughter-in-law in the family should not move outside.

Shen Hongjun's side also ordered the soldiers not to disturb the people, especially those young women, to stay away. With such precautions, nothing came out of it.

At night, Shen Hongjun divided the people he brought into several squads and took turns patrolling. As soon as something happens, blow the horn used in the army to warn you. In this way, when other teams hear it, they will come to the aid in time.

On the night of the third day where these people stayed, someone from across the river ran over. There were about 30 people in total, coming from a narrow part of the river, wanting to go into the village and get something to eat. But I didn't expect that there were forty or fifty people patrolling back and forth here.

Gao Li's traces were soon discovered, and the soldiers here reacted very quickly, and immediately exchanged hands with those people. In the end, a few of the tall Li people were caught, and the rest ran away. Shen Hongjun meant, everyone can defend, but it's best not to kill people, after all, those people are also too hungry.

During the day, twenty or so men were left to patrol, and some of the rest went to a place two miles from the village to clear the wasteland. On the side of the road, there is a low shrub, the terrain is very flat, the soil is quite thick, and there is also a distance from the villagers' land, which is just more suitable for the sergeants to cultivate. They were all young and strong young men, and they were naturally quick to work, and within a few days they were all cleared out. The land in the Northeast, especially the land along the Yalu River, is still quite fertile, and as long as you are diligent, you can harvest a lot of things.

The sergeants sowed all kinds of seeds sent by the villagers into the fields, and they were all originally farmers and had planted the land at home.

Because Shen Hongjun said, it is good to only open forty or fifty acres, and there is no need to get too much for the time being. There are not enough seeds, and the time is not followed, even if there are more seeds, it is still in vain if they cannot be planted. Naturally, there are not too many people in these lands, and the remaining ones are distributed to those families with less labor in the village to help.

There are some families in the village, when the men go out to put out the rows, there are no more people, and only the old and weak women and children are left in the family, and farming has become a problem. Under the guidance of the village chief, Shen Hongjun assigned these soldiers under his command, and with the help of these people, he naturally worked much faster.

Shen Hongjun took Shen Zhong and Yun Zhen to help out at the Han family. With Shen Hongjun taking the lead, those soldiers naturally had nothing to say, and everyone was full of enthusiasm.

The Han family has a lot of land, Yunxue and her sisters and brothers have worked for three or four days, but they have only planted a small half of the good land, sorghum and other crops have not been planted, and corn has not been planted at all. In addition, the twenty acres of wasteland is the most labor-intensive. Sweet potato seedlings have to be planted in the ground, and potatoes are cut into small pieces, each with buds on them, and they all have to be planted in the ground, which is the most tedious and tiring.

"Xue'er, you and Yunni are at home, I'll just bring someone over to work." Shen Hongjun felt sorry for Yun Xue, it had only been a few days, and Yun Xue's hands had become a lot thicker.

Yunxue shook her head, "No, it's the time to grab spring, plant it early, and you can harvest it early in autumn." Autumn frost falls early in our place, and if the crops ripen too late, I am afraid that the harvest will not be good. It's okay, I'm not tired, I'm waiting for the spring ploughing, and it won't take a few days to slow down. ”

"You, as soon as you come up, it's really a headache." Shen Hongjun had no choice but to let her work in the field together.

It took another five or six days for everyone to plant all the land of the Han family. When all the land was planted, Yun Xue looked at the large piece of land in her house, imagining the harvest scene during the autumn harvest, and couldn't help but smile.

"What do you think, so happy?" Shen Hongjun stood beside Yun Xue, looking at the smile on Yun Xue's face, and felt very satisfied. He asked softly.

"I'm wondering what it's going to be like here in the fall. As long as I think about the golden corn, the purple sorghum, and the heavy ears of grain, I feel very satisfied. We never dreamed that we could have so much land at home. I didn't expect to have it now, only to find out that this is just the beginning. In the future, I will buy more land, and I will become a small landowner. Yun Xue smiled as she spoke, her big eyes were shining, full of expectations for the future.

"It's not a small landlord, it's a landlord's wife. In the future, we will live here, buy a large piece of land, I am the landlord, you are the landlord's wife. How about our family, just here to stay together? Shen Hongjun looked at Yun Xue with a smile, and his deep voice described a beautiful life in the future.

Yun Xue looked up at the people around her, fascinated by the scene he described, but Yun Xue also understood that this could only be a beautiful fantasy. The person in front of him is simply impossible to let go of everything and accompany himself to farm here. However, Yun Xue was still happy for Shen Hongjun's words. "Thank you, Zhiyuan, no matter what happens in the future, and no matter whether we can come back here or not, I am willing to accompany you." Yunxue whispered.

Shen Hongjun couldn't help himself, and reached out to hold Yun Xue's hand, "Believe me, there will be such a day." Maybe by then, we will both be old, but I will definitely accompany you back. He said with a firm expression.

Yun Xue nodded, "Okay, I'll wait, no matter how long it takes, I'll wait for this day." ”

Under the sunset, a pair of lovers stared at each other, and the orange light reflected the world of lovers' happiness.

Shen Zhong, Yun Zhen and the others had already packed up all kinds of farm tools and were resting in the field at this time. They all saw the affectionate gaze of Shen Hongjun and Yun Xue, and all the big guys who were aspiring to be together turned their heads and stopped looking at them.

Shen Zhong glanced at Yun Zhen, and everyone quietly took the farm tools and left here. Leave this piece of the world to that pair of lovers with deep affection.

Yun Ting and Yun Lei looked back and peeked as they walked, but they were slapped by Yun Zhen, "Hurry up, what's there to see?" He reprimanded his two younger brothers softly.

Yun Lei stuck out his tongue and smiled embarrassedly, "I'm just curious, the eldest sister didn't even notice that we were leaving." ”

Shen Hongjun heard Yun Lei's movement, turned his head to look, and found that these people had quietly walked away. "Let's go, let's go back too, these boys have all run away." He couldn't help but laugh.

Yun Xue also turned around, and saw that her younger brothers had already walked quite far, and Yun Lei was still turning back as she walked, not to mention how ridiculous that looked. "Okay, go home, I'll make you something good."

"Don't bother, at this time, where can you get something delicious? It's good to have some wild vegetables. I can eat anything, I don't have to do anything. When marching and fighting, it is good to have a full stomach, and we have long been accustomed to having no vegetables and only rice. Shen Hongjun didn't let go of Yun Xue's hand, just kept pulling, and the two of them walked towards home side by side.

This year, with the help of these people, all the families in the village quickly finished planting, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief when the spring plowing was over.

At this time, it was only the first few days of April, and everyone had finished planting the land, and the villagers were all very happy. On the night of the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, it rained, and this timely rain simply made everyone's hearts beautiful. With this rain, the seeds in the ground are full of water and will soon germinate. The spring rain is as expensive as oil, and the old farmers are so happy that they can't close their mouths, "Okay, God seems to take care of us." ”

A spring rain moistened the earth and brought the entire mountain forest to life. The trees in the mountains are stretching their tender branches and leaves, blooming with a touch of new green that belongs to spring. The weeds in the forest also grew wildly at this time, and almost overnight, they seemed to grow taller.

At this time, the wild vegetables in the forest can also be eaten, such as large-leaved celery, swallows, ploughshares, etc., all of which are delicious wild vegetables. The idle women, carrying baskets and baskets, all went into the mountains to pick wild vegetables.

The Han family is no exception, the two sisters Yun Xue and Yun Ni, led Yushu and Baozhu Mingzhu, as well as Xiuyu, and several girls into the mountains together.

At this time, the leaves of the mountains and forests have not yet grown very large, so the line of sight is quite open. A group of girls, dressed in a variety of colorful clothes, walked in the forest, but formed a beautiful scenery. The crisp laughter of the girls like silver bells echoed in the mountains and forests, adding a touch of smart music to the mountains and fields in spring.

"Sister Yunxue, there are a lot of big leaves and celery here, come here." Xiuyu shouted loudly. She is a girl from the Li family, the daughter of the third aunt of Hanyu, she is only twelve years old this year, and she looks very delicate, somewhat similar to Meiyu.

"There are a lot of them here, you can just pick them at will, beware of the soles of your feet, there are a lot of fallen trees in the forest, you must be careful, don't trip. Also, pay attention to it, it's only been raining for a while, and snakes are easy to have in the woods, so don't scare you anymore. Orbs, pearls, you two need to pay special attention, you know? Yun Xue shouted loudly.

Baozhu and Mingzhu rarely go into the mountains, and they are not familiar with the mountains, and Yunxue is most worried about the two of them.

"Hey, we got it." The orb replied like that.

Among the wild vegetables in the mountains, her favorite is the large-leaved celery. Because you can eat it back, you can eat it with mixing, you can fry it, and you can also make steamed buns and dumplings, which taste better than other dishes, and everyone likes to eat them. Yun Xue thought in her heart, it would be good to pick back the big leaf celery today and eat steamed buns at night. There is still some meat at home, and the dumplings are not enough, but the buns are okay, and you can put less meat in them. The big guys are tired a lot these days, so they should get some delicious treats.

Shen Hongjun took people to live in the village like this, and the villagers knew that this was a person sent by the imperial court to protect the big guy, so they treated these soldiers very enthusiastically. Village Chief Zhao has already instructed the people in the village that the eldest girl and the little daughter-in-law in the family should not move outside.
