Opening her eyes, Chen Hong was reborn. She was reborn just before she was about to take her children back to her parents' home. Not wanting to live a life of looking at others' faces for a...

Chapter 330 Farmers Have It Hard

It seems that reading more books and interacting with more people has many benefits. Yu Yang now has a much larger vocabulary than before.

His vivid and lifelike descriptions suggest that he will be able to write compositions even in higher grades.

Bringing her child to Jinan for school brought many relatives and troubles, but also many benefits, and Chen Hong has no regrets at all.

Yu Yang is making rapid progress in guitar playing, and his calligraphy is also quite good. According to his teachers, he is not only very hardworking and serious in his studies, but also very talented.

If you can persevere in this long term, you should be able to achieve considerable success.

Yu Yang's learning progress has far surpassed that of his peers, and his teachers are already developing a new learning plan for him.

The teachers valued their son's studies and devoted themselves wholeheartedly to his courses, putting in more effort than expected. They treated Yu Yang as their last disciple and provided him with education and guidance.

Although they acted out of love for talent and gave their care without considering personal gain.

However, as a parent, Chen Hong could not pretend to be ignorant and ignore the teachers' sincere intentions.

Every week when Chen Hong takes Yu Yang to class, she prepares small gifts for the two teachers.

Sometimes it's a bag of various fresh fruits, and sometimes it's a variety of seafood, river fish, and shrimp.

They may not look worth much, but they are all quite valuable. The key is that even if you have the money, there's nowhere to buy them.

Moreover, all the food was fresh, making it hard for the teachers to refuse, and they couldn't bear to refuse it.

After tasting the fruits, fish, and shrimp that Chen Hong gave them, they realized that there were such delicious and fresh fruits and ingredients in the world.

The two teachers had also spent a lot of money to buy imported fruits and seafood from abroad at the supermarket, but when they ate them at home, they were very disappointed.

They believe that imported and exported high-end goods are just a case of false advertising; in their view, it's simply a business tactic used by foreigners and domestic merchants to inflate prices.

In reality, it's all about deceiving those who have a foreign-worshipping mentality. They're just naive and rich, and they love to compare themselves to others, show off, and save face.

These so-called imported foreign gadgets are nowhere near as delicious and flavorful as our local specialties.

In their view, people who frequently consume imported food are just wasting money.

Our country has a vast territory and a complex and diverse climate, which is suitable for the growth and survival of most animals and plants in the world.

What are some agricultural products that China doesn't have? Instead of spending money abroad, it's better to spend it domestically—it's more practical and cheaper.

Hearing the two teachers complaining behind her back, Chen Hong couldn't help but chuckle to herself. She couldn't say it, nor dared she say it, but the ingredients she had given as a gift were not ordinary domestic ingredients.

They don't read Tomato's novels, so they probably don't know the popular saying in the online literature world: "Anything produced by Space is bound to be a masterpiece!"

Chen Hong has been very busy lately. The village chief called to say that the autumn harvest has already begun at her home.

Peanuts were dug up, millet was harvested, soybeans were cut, mung bean vines were pulled up, and sweet potatoes were dug up. All the crops that were due for harvest were brought home one after another when the season arrived.

They plowed the land again, and in addition to planting less winter wheat, they cleared out all of Chen Hong's land, built small greenhouses, and planted a lot of vegetables.

This autumn, the village chief and Uncle Erhu planted another batch of Laiyang pear seedlings that were dug up from Chen Hong's land.

Moreover, without her having to worry or give any instructions, they pressed another batch of new branches, and by the year after next at the latest, Xiao Hao and Wang Xin's family will also be able to get Laiyang pear seedlings to plant.

By then, the Laiyang pear trees belonging to the village chief and Uncle Erhu should also be able to bear a small amount of fruit.

Within five years, Laiyang pears will become a relatively stable source of income for these families.

Chen Hong didn't have any free time either. She found a large agricultural machinery company in Jinan and finally bought a multi-functional thresher that satisfied her.

Since autumn began, Chen Hong has been going to the Yellow River in the mornings to catch turtles and chat with the anglers to exchange fishing experiences.

In the afternoon, I went to the villa to tend the vegetable garden, and went into the space to harvest millet, rice, corn, soybeans, mung beans, and peanuts.

After harvesting, the grain is laid out in the field to dry. At night, the power lines are pulled into the space and connected to the threshing machine for threshing.

After working for about ten days, Chen Hong harvested a total of over 1,500 jin of peanuts, 1,000 jin of soybeans, and over 500 jin of mung beans.

In addition, she harvested more than 3,000 jin of corn and more than 900 jin of millet. What pleased Chen Hong the most was that she harvested more than 2,000 jin of rice.

This was her first time planting rice in the space, and she hadn't even prepared a paddy field yet; she had only planted two acres of dry rice.

Judging from the fullness of the ears of dryland rice, there was a good harvest of rice, which can be considered a bumper harvest.

She also picked up a few grains of rice, chewed them, and tasted them. The rice aroma was quite good, but she didn't know how the cooked rice would taste.

Good rice is characterized not only by its aroma, but also by its ability to absorb water and its chewy texture after cooking.

Chen Hong used the method of breaking down large quantities into smaller ones, driving her Mercedes-Benz and carrying only fifty or sixty kilograms of each type of grain each time, traveling to more than a dozen villages on the outskirts of the city.

Finally, in the grain processing workshops in these villages, the harvested grain, except for the seeds, was processed into cornmeal, rice, and millet.

On the very night the grain was processed into finished products, Chen Hong's family was able to eat the grain they had grown themselves.

She steamed a pot of cornbread made from a mixture of soybean flour and cornmeal, cooked a pot of millet and mung bean porridge, boiled six salted duck eggs, and stir-fried a cabbage stew with pork.

The mother and son ate a simple farm-style meal, which Yu Yang praised repeatedly: "Mom, isn't corn supposed to be a coarse grain, used as feed for pigs, chickens and ducks?"

These cornbread buns are delicious! They get more and more fragrant the more you chew them. Even with just some dried vegetables, I can eat two of them. They're much more fragrant than white flour steamed buns.
