Before Old Lady Feng left the house today, Jiaojiao told her that the extra sweet potato seedlings could be given to the members of Wangjia Village who were in need. Hearing what Grandpa Goudan said, Old Lady Feng understood why Jiaojiao said that.
"We have some at home. I've been looking for them a while now, and I've cultivated quite a few recently. If any of you want any, come to my house and get them."
Grandma Dashan's eyes lit up: "Give me some! I'll come to your house to exchange later!"
After they talked for a while, Grandma Dashan followed Grandma Feng directly to their home.
The peach trees at Old Lady Feng's house were in bloom, as if overnight the two trees were covered in blossoms. The blossoms swayed in the wind, looking incredibly beautiful.
"Your yard is really nice." Grandma Dashan praised it as soon as she came in. When she saw Jiaojiao playing under the tree, she was even more impressed: "It's really nice."
Old Mrs. Feng also thought it was really good. She went out for half a day and when she came back and saw Jiaojiao, her eyes were full of love.
Before going out in the morning, Old Lady Feng asked Shuixiu and Lianhua to prepare the seedlings, ten in a bundle, and the backyard was filled with them.
Lianhua took out 30 sweet potato seedlings, 20 potato seedlings and a dozen pumpkin seedlings from the backyard.
"Your seedlings are so energetic!"
Grandma Dashan looked at the seedlings and said: "These seedlings will definitely have a high survival rate if they are planted."
"The fruits are good too!" Lotus couldn't help showing off.
"Of course, otherwise I would rush here to get it because I was afraid that people would find out and snatch it away!" Grandma Dashan said with a smile. She had a plan in mind and would get Miaomiao first.
Grandma Dashan said a few more words to Old Lady Feng, and then someone from the Feng family came.
"Grandma Feng, I heard from my father-in-law that you still have sweet potato seedlings at home?" Goudan's mother came over with a small basket.
The basket contained a handful of red dates and some fried peanuts.
Soon, someone else came to the door carrying a basket. One afternoon, everyone in Wangjia Village rushed to Old Lady Feng's house.
Regardless of whether there are potatoes or sweet potatoes stored at home, the things at Grandma Feng’s house must be exchanged!
Fortunately, Jiaojiao prepared a lot, otherwise there wouldn’t be enough to share.
The village chief of Wangjia Village, Old Lady Feng, the Dashan family, the Goudan family, the Xiaoya family, and several other families have recently been reclaiming land. The men wield hoes and hammer down hard into the hard earth, while the women rake behind them, breaking up the upturned soil. They mix wood ash, compost, and other household materials into the soil.
More and more people joined the team to open up the wasteland. Everyone has the habit of following the crowd. The remaining people saw others opening up the wasteland and planting sweet potatoes and potatoes, and they couldn't help but fall behind.
Strangely enough, the Zhoujia Village, which had always been at odds with them, also followed suit. Not only did they plant sweet potatoes and potatoes on the wasteland in and outside the village, but some people also followed Wangjia Village, looking for land everywhere to open up wasteland and plant sweet potatoes and potatoes.
