Chapter 446 Before Departure (Part 1)
The farm is now on track and can be taken care of by Master Shang alone.
Before Shang Ruoting and Tan Chen left, they only needed to prepare enough feed with spiritual spring water.
These things continue to be wholesaled to Nanjie Food Store, and Zhou Ergu will naturally send someone to pick up the goods when the time comes.
What people can't let go of the most is the artificially cultivated oyster mushrooms. Although Wang Xigui knows how to take care of them, only Shang Ruoting knows how to cultivate mushrooms, and she has no intention of revealing this method for the time being.
After all, this is currently the project with the highest income in the family. They will definitely have a lot of places to spend money in the capital in the future, especially Shang Ruoting who understands the future development. It is understandable to make some necessary investments, which requires a lot of funds.
The only way to solve this problem is for Shang Ruoting to find time to cultivate mushrooms in Beijing, and then find a way to send them to Sihe Village regularly.
There is also the winter wheat planted in the fields, which will not mature until the end of the year at the earliest. By then, late corn will have to be planted in those lands. The timing connection is also a technical job.
Fortunately, Shang Ruoting and Tan Chen had not left Sihe Village at that time. As long as they taught one person, it would be easier next year.
High-yield rice was planted once last year, and Yang Mei has a good grasp of planting techniques, so with her help, it shouldn't be a big problem.
Li Jiasheng has already settled in Sihe Village. Although his household registration is still in Beijing, he has now identified himself as a farmer. With him here, they can also help take care of things, so Shang Ruoting and Tan Chen are much more relieved.
Six months later...
It is the height of summer.
Each adult in Shang Ruoting's family was holding a little one in their arms and enjoying the cool air in the yard.
"Tingting, my little grandchildren are getting prettier and prettier. They're all white and plump."
Jiang Ping looked at the four treasures in her arms and smiled happily.
Mr. Tan did the same, holding Dabao in his arms.
"Haha... Look at our Dabao, he acts like a big brother and never fights with his younger brothers and sisters when eating."
Dabao really acts like an older brother. As the little ones grow older day by day, their appetites also increase a lot. Shang Ruoting’s milk can only feed one child now, and the other three children have to drink milk powder.
Every time Jiang Ping went to prepare milk powder, the second, third and fourth babies would babble, hoping to eat soon.
But Dabao is different. He will stare with his big eyes like black grapes, as if saying: Let my younger brothers and sisters eat first.
Old Mrs. Shang is holding her second baby in her arms. He is the most lively of the four little ones and also the first baby to learn to sit.
"I like our second child's personality. Boys should be more active."
Tan Chen looked at the third baby he was holding. He had thick black hair, fair skin, and a chubby baby face.
"Sanbao is also cute. She will definitely be a pretty girl in the future."
Praising these treasures is something that adults in the family must do every day.
Now, there are only a few days left before the start of school at Peking University. Even if Shang Ruoting and Tan Chen are reluctant to leave Sihe Village, they can't delay any longer.
What's more, Tan Shaowen has already sent a telegram, saying that he will send a car to pick them up for moving tomorrow.
"Grandpa, Grandma, Mom, we're moving to the capital tomorrow. Ruoting and I have packed everything. Can you guys see if there's anything else we need to bring?"
After hearing what Tan Chen said, Mrs. Shang looked lonely.
"When you go to the capital, you must take good care of yourselves and the children. Grandma will also help you look after the house and wait for you to come back during the holidays."
Shang Ruoting did not tell Old Lady Shang that they were going to the capital together, but she thought in her heart that Old Lady Shang would move there with them. Unexpectedly, the old lady did not go.
"Grandma, you have to move with us."
Old Mrs. Shang shook her head: "Grandma won't go. There's been no news from your parents. What if they come back and we're not here?"
Shang Ruoting wondered why: "Grandma, if we leave, the farmland and the house are still here. At worst, we still have my uncle and cousin. Even if my parents come back, they will know our whereabouts."
Old Mrs. Shang still shook her head. She felt inferior in her heart and was sensitive about her identity. She thought her granddaughter and grandson-in-law were both promising people and didn't want their future to be ruined because of her, an old lady.
What's more, the old man is rather conservative. Considering that his granddaughter is going to live with her husband's family, it would be a joke if he brought her along her grandmother.
"Grandma has lived in Sihe Village for most of her life. She's used to it and doesn't want to leave."
Shang Ruoting said that no matter what she said, it was impossible to leave Old Lady Shang alone in Sihe Village.
