The red sun hung high in the sky, and the scorching temperature made everyone sweat profusely, but it still couldn't stop everyone's enthusiasm for the autumn harvest.

The people of the village craned their necks and waited for the harvest of the crescent moon fields.

Tang Mian knew what they were thinking and didn't care.

"Dad, when you cut the rice stalks, you should leave a grain stake, about four and a half inches." Before going down to the field, Tang Mian told Lu Zheng.

Lu Zheng was stunned, "What are you doing with so much?" ”

"If there are more grain stakes, there will be less grain grass."

You know, there are many uses for grain grass. It is used to feed cattle, to be used as firewood, and to build a roof.

Therefore, when rice is harvested in the past, the rice stalks are cut against the surface of the water, just to harvest more grain and grass.

Tang Mian guessed that Lu Zheng would have questions, and explained: "Dad, if the grain stump is about four and a half inches, it is possible to grow regenerative rice." ”

"Regenerative rice?" Lu Zheng was puzzled.

Tang Mian, "It's just that you can grow another crop of rice." ”

"One more stubble?" Lu Zheng shouted, his eyes widening in disbelief.

Tang Mian chuckled and nodded, "That's what the book says, whether you can achieve it or not will be known after trying it." ”

Lu Zheng paused, looked at Tang Mian, and then looked at the rice stalks in the field, and finally nodded, "Okay, leave four and a half inches." ”

When the words fell, he picked up the sickle and bent down to start cutting the rice.

Tang Mian raised his lips and bent over to work.

People passing by all looked at the two of them with strange expressions.

"What are they doing here, leaving the stump so long, don't you want the grass?"

"Who knows! It's all weird, and in the end, the ears of rice don't look good! ”

The sound of muttering did not affect the speed at which Tang Mian and Lu Zheng were harvesting rice.

"Mianniang, did you tell your uncle about the regeneration of rice?" Lu Zheng asked while cutting rice.

Tang Mian didn't rest, and replied without raising his head: "Not yet." They haven't started harvesting yet, and I'm going to tell them two days later. ”

"Maybe they won't have to say it, they'll come and ask me later."

Lu Zheng nodded, "Okay." You just have to look at it. ”

"Don't force this, you told them, it's their business to stay or not."

"Dad, I know."

As Tang Mian expected, the matter of leaving grain stakes soon spread throughout Qingyuan Village, and Lu Guang and others came over to inquire.

Tang Mian didn't hide it, and told them about the regeneration of rice.

However, it is also clear that the matter has not yet been decided, whether it can be her unpacked.

Lu Zheng and the others didn't say anything, they were all people who followed the rice planting, so they naturally knew it in their hearts.

This time, although they have not yet harvested back, with years of experience, they can only say that there is no loss.

Sure enough, when the harvest came back and weighed, the harvest was about the same as usual.

Tang Mian's crescent moon field is also the same.

The harvest of several other fields is about 340 catties, and the harvest of the crescent moon field is only 360 catties.

"It's done." Lu Zheng looked at the results after weighing, wiped his sweat, and said with a smile: "No matter how you say it, there are twenty catties of extra harvest, and you can eat for several more days." ”

"That's right." Li also nodded, "Isn't there still regenerative rice!" If there is also a harvest of regenerative rice, it will be even more. ”

"Oh, yes, yes, yes." Lu Zheng reacted and responded with a smile.

Thinking about it this way, Mianniang's new method of growing rice is indeed more useful than the old method. However, other fields can also keep the grain stumps, so that they can harvest a few fewer bundles of grain and grass, so you can give it a try.

Within two days, everyone in the village knew about the regeneration of rice, some wanted to give it a try and follow what they had learned, and some scoffed at it and insisted on harvesting more grain and grass.

Tang Mian didn't have time to pay attention to their reactions and practices, she was now busy turning over the soil and trying to plant wheat in a different way than before.
