Overworked employee Su Ying died from continuous overtime and transmigrated to the second year of Zhenguan in the Great Tang dynasty. She became Su Ying, the eldest daughter of Su Buchang, the Chan...
Chapter 104: Just Strangle This Stupid Ass to Death
After seeing Hu Erlang off, Su Ying devoted herself to sowing winter wheat.
Three days later, the Su family had plowed nearly 20 acres of land and half of it was covered with rotten soil.
Su Bucheng and Su Laoer took oxen and plows to help Zheng Niangzi, Yang Chunhua and other women who had lost their husbands.
Su Laosan and Su Ying soaked the seeds at home, and then took their family to sow them, planting half of each type of wheat and soybeans in two fields for a comparative experiment.
Keep detailed records of each item.
Su Laosan was originally the eighth-rank official in the Taicang Office of the Sinong Temple, in charge of the state's grain storage and cellar affairs.
The collected rented rice is placed in the state granary, and each granary must be engraved with the position, name, time, and amount of rice in and out of the warehouse of the person in charge.
It is not the one who is in charge of farming season and harvest.
When it comes to the person who is most familiar with farming seasons and cropping, it must be the elder brother Su Bucheng. The most important and basic duty of a county magistrate is agricultural harvest.
All work such as water conservancy construction, dam construction, slope protection, etc., are centered around improving and ensuring agricultural harvests.
Su Laosan has been immersed in the Sinong Temple for many years and has dealt with various departments. Even if he has not eaten pork, he has seen pigs run. Although he has not done anything specifically, he has heard a lot.
Su Ying's planting philosophy was somewhat similar to what he had seen at Sinong Temple, but also different, and he had never even heard of it before.
So when sowing, he asked to be in a group with Su Ying to find out more.
In fact, it is normal to have similarities and differences. Farming time and harvesting have been continuously summarized and improved by generations of farmers.
Since Su Ying came from thousands of years ago, the planting concept has been improved a lot, and the row spacing, plant spacing, and care of each crop are very particular.
"Winter wheat planting plots require meticulous land preparation, with even and fine ploughing to remove any visible clods and debris. Plow the land to a depth of at least eight inches to increase the thickness of the tillage layer and improve the soil's ability to retain moisture..."
Su Laosan, Su Ying, Su Boyan and others were chatting while sowing.
"Aying, where did you read all this?" Su Laosan listened to the man's clear and logical explanation. He couldn't find an official in the Sinong Temple who could explain it so clearly.
"Some of these I learned from books, and some I learned from farmers in the fields." Su Ying's words were a mixture of truth and falsehood.
The original body often followed Su Bucheng to the countryside, so no one present thought there was anything wrong with this statement.
It is a well-known fact that crops that are carefully cultivated grow better than those that are haphazardly cultivated.
But there is a way to understand what constitutes intensive cultivation and how to do it.
Just like what Su Ying mentioned just now, there are clear data on the depth, thickness, row spacing, plants, etc., as well as its reasons and purpose, which makes people convinced.
"Look, you bunch of self-proclaimed scholars are not as good as Aying, a girl in the boudoir!" Seeing that his nephews and nieces were happy to hear what he heard, Su Laosan pretended to be disgusted and laughed and scolded.
"Uncle San is right. When it comes to farming, we are really not as good as Aying." Su Boyan said frankly.
"Learn more, do more research. We have to thrive here in the future. If we can't leave, then we should learn how to farm. We want to be the best farmers in Lingnan.
You can't just know the results without knowing the reasons behind them; you won't get far if you do that."
Su Laosan has a very good mentality. He can take things as they come, but he also has the perseverance to try to change the status quo in the face of adversity.
"That's a relief!" the nephews and nieces said in unison.
A group of people learned while working, and the work of nearly 20 acres of land did not seem so unbearable.
Even Xiaotao followed Su Ying with a small bamboo basket, placing a few seeds in each hole. Behind her, Du used a hoe to dig the soil to cover the hole. They did everything in a tacit and orderly manner.
Old Mrs. Su did not go to the fields. She sat by the edge of the field, looking at the large piece of newly reclaimed land and watching her children and grandchildren working together to sow seeds, her heart filled with emotion.
In the past, our family was poor and we had never cultivated the land so carefully. It was true that people feed the land and the land feeds their stomachs.
It is true that hard work makes the land fertile. Look at this land. It is worth the hard work of the whole family these days. It is much more fertile than the surrounding cultivated land.
In order to have a good harvest next year, in addition to good weather, hard work is also indispensable.
"Ahe, how come you have finished planting!" Su Shiyan turned around and saw his sister and mother got up and left, and the bamboo basket was empty.
Xiaotao, Sulu, Zhaoyan and Bingyan still had nearly half of the seeds in their bamboo baskets.
"How would I know!" Su He rolled his eyes.
Sowing is the easiest job, but you have to bend over and over again, and your waist will become sore after a while.
Su He didn't like working, and he was very unhappy about being forced to work in the fields.
Su Ying and Su Lao San were talking in front, as if they were giving orders. How could Su He watch them?
He is obviously lazy and doesn't know the difference between grains, but he pretends to be more capable than the Minister of Agriculture. He preaches a lot but doesn't do anything practical.
Su Ying said that she would plant four or five wheat seeds in each classroom. She was not that stupid!
Not only does it tire herself out, but it also makes Su Ying look very capable!
Want a good harvest next year? I'll make sure you have a good harvest, a good harvest! I'll let you boast, I'll let you boast!
Su He angrily grabbed handfuls of winter wheat and threw them into the snow. How could Xiao Qinshi, who was covering the snow behind her, not understand? Cover it up quickly.
Xiao Qinshi originally thought that she could form a team with Su Laoer, and as long as Su Laoer was there, he would never let her suffer.
But she didn't expect that Su Laoer would go to help those widows plow the fields. Xiao Qin was so angry that she wanted to scratch those widows' faces.
The land of every household was connected together. In public, the group of widows surrounded the two brothers of the Su family, calling them "Mr. Su" left and right.
Looking at Su Laoer's carefree smile, Xiao Qin was so angry that she wanted to vomit blood and felt extremely bitter in her heart.
The seemingly honest Su Lao Er is so philandering and so eager to find a widow! Pah!
Xiao Qin was feeling indignant and had no way to vent her anger, so Su He's action just pleased her.
The mother and daughter smiled at each other, feeling secretly proud of themselves, thinking they were the smartest people in the world.
After throwing all the seeds in a few seconds, the mother and daughter were freed and got up to rest.
Su Shiyan's shout exposed the truth!
Su Ying thought of something and walked over to dig open the acupoint to take a look. She felt a chill all over her body and her blood rushed to her head. "Su He, come here!"
Su Laosan, Su Boyan and others hurried over, took a handful of wheat seeds from the hole, and shouted angrily, "Su He!"
"What? I've finished my work. I'm tired and need to rest!" Su He sat on the ground, picked up the bowl and drank water comfortably.
Su Ying strode over. Su He raised his head and looked at the furious Su Ying provocatively.
"Pa!" Su Ying raised her hand and hit Su He in the face without hesitation.
"Ah! Su Ying, you bitch! How dare you hit me!" Su He jumped up and tried to grab Su Ying.
"Pa!" Before he could touch the other person, he was slapped again.
Then she was pushed to the ground. Su Ying rode on Su He, grabbed Su He's hair and pressed him to the ground, slapping him several times.
He slapped her and cursed, "You idiot! If you want to die, don't drag your whole family with you! I've never seen anyone as stupid as you!"
I knew Su He was a bad person, but I never thought he was so bad and stupid. Burying handfuls of winter wheat in the ground, this is not planting crops, it is obvious that he doesn't want anyone to live!
If the Su family has no harvest, won’t she starve to death?
Without the skin, where will the hair be attached? Without the Su family, can Su He survive?
I have never seen such a stupid person. Just strangle this idiot to death!
Su Ying's eyes were bloodshot, and she was pinching Su He's neck tightly. Su He's face turned red, and he stuck out his tongue and rolled his eyes.
"Aying, let go, let go!" Su Laosan pried Su Ying's hands apart and pulled her away.
If you really kill Su He, you will have to pay with your life. It's not worth it to sacrifice your life for such a rotten person!
"Aying, calm down! Calm down!" Su Laosan patted his niece's trembling shoulders.
"Cough cough cough..." Su He, who was freed, covered his neck and breathed heavily, coughing continuously, staring at Su Ying with hatred.
