After the pond was dug, they started digging a ditch from the trench down to the pond.

In order to avoid taking a detour, Jiang Xue specially found some straw ropes to straighten the route, and everyone dug down along the ropes.

This ditch is very long and there are many stones underground, so it is quite difficult to dig.

Fortunately, they now use iron hoes instead of poking with wooden sticks as before.

The ditch was dug for four days, a total of nine days, and a brand new ditch appeared in front of everyone, with only the final finishing work left.

Watching the river water flow through the fields along the ditch and into the pond, Jiang Xue's face was full of smiles.

It's a pity for the rice.

The water comes down from the ditch, passes through the rice fields and then flows into the pond.

Although it is only half a meter wide, it can still affect rice.

Jiang Xue is very open-minded about this.

Even if we have two fewer rice plants this year, it will bring us good harvests every year in the future. All the hard work and effort will be worth it.

"Everyone has worked hard these past two days. Tonight when we get home, we'll cook a big pot of rice for everyone. Just eat to your heart's content!"

In fact, everyone has been eating rice these days.

But with so many mouths to feed, she only harvested a few baskets of early rice. Even when cooking it with fresh sweet potatoes, she almost counted the rice as she put it into the pot.

It was impossible to feed everyone, she could only make sure that everyone had enough to eat.

Today's work is finally done. In order to reward everyone and let everyone have a big meal, it is actually possible to do so.

The big guy suddenly let out a deafening shout.

"Everyone, hurry up and work. Once you're done, go back and pound the rice!"

I don't know who made such a loud noise, but everyone was so motivated.

After finishing the work, Aunt Cao was shocked when she saw her clansmen rushing into the warehouse like Japanese invaders entering a village.

Especially when she saw them carrying out two baskets of rice, her eyes widened: "What are you going to do? That's for food in the cold season!"

Jiang Xue said to her with a smile, "Madam Cao, I asked them to do this." Then she looked at them and said, "Pound the rice with all your strength. We'll cook as much as you can today. If you can finish pounding all the rice in this basket, we'll cook it all today."

Jiang Xue was still too naive.

"good!"

Then, under Jiang Xue's astonished gaze, they brought out three more rice pounding machines...

The four rice pounding machines made a pleasant yet slightly dull thumping sound under everyone's feet.

"I really underestimated you."

Jiang Xue swore that she really didn't know that they had made three more rice pounding machines. If she knew, she would definitely not say that.

But it's too late now. I am a snow witch, and I must do what I say.

Otherwise, she would have no prestige in the tribe.
