Chapter 246 The Seeder is a Good Thing
"that's all."
"Xuanxuan, do you still want me to remain silent now?"
"If you still think I'm too noisy, then I'm willing to cooperate with this method of silencing you. I'm willing to keep my mouth shut for as long as you want."
Gu Yuexuan's lips were hit hard and trembled. A strange uneasiness surged in her heart, and she always felt that this matter was seriously inappropriate.
However, Tu Subo's face was filled with sincerity, which made her feel uneasy, as if she was under a magical power.
It turns out her alcohol tolerance isn't as strong as she thought?
So, after getting drunk, would she stick her lips to a man's and bite him passionately without any scruples?
At such a young age, how could he harbor such strong desires in his heart?
Gu Yuexuan's consciousness was blurred and scattered, and Tu Subo seized the opportunity and greedily bit the corner of her lips.
She raised her hand tremblingly, trying to push away the approaching face. Just as she was trying to struggle hard and try to save some dignity, Tu Subo, who had already taken advantage of her, couldn't help it after all. He gently rested his forehead on her weak shoulder and let out a smug laugh.
That laughter was full of teasing and pride!
A flash of lightning flashed through Gu Yuexuan's mind, and she suddenly realized something. She reached out and grabbed the tip of Tu Subo's ear, her eyes sharp and her teeth gnashing as she asked, "Are you teasing me for fun?"
"Check your conscience. Did I really say those lies you just said?!"
"Hahaha……"
Tu Subo laughed so hard that he could hardly straighten his back. He took the opportunity to hug Gu Yuexuan, rested his head on her shoulder, and kissed her ear frivolously.
"To tease you, of course."
"You were sleeping so soundly, how could I bear to wake you up?"
Gu Yuexuan gasped, her eyes wide open in anger. At this moment, Xi Lanfang's voice came from outside the door: "Bo'er, is Xuanxuan awake?"
Before the two people in the room responded, Xi Lanfang added warningly, "If she hasn't woken up yet, don't disturb her. Xuanxuan rarely gets a day off, so don't disturb her peace."
Tu Subo just laughed softly without answering, while Gu Yuexuan glared at him helplessly.
“You are…”
After mumbling, she raised her voice and responded: "Mother-in-law, I'm already up and will be out soon."
When Xi Lanfang heard her voice, she felt relieved. She gave her a few more instructions before slowly leaving.
Gu Yuexuan gently brushed away Tu Subo's entanglement with her, tidied up her messy hair, then jumped off the bed, grabbed a soft handkerchief soaked in hot water, and applied it to her face. Her voice was slightly low, "Although the waterwheel has been assembled, the irrigation ditch at home has not yet been completely cleared. This cannot be delayed."
"That newly cleared land has already been plowed, so turning it over this time won't be so difficult. We'll plant the selected seeds today, and within ten days we'll be able to sow the seeds in the ground."
As she spoke, Gu Yuexuan recalled the scene of herself sowing seeds alone with a winnowing basket, and she couldn't help but frown. "Sowing seeds with just my hands is too slow. It may seem insignificant on the surface, but our land is vast. If we delay for a few days, the seeds we've cultivated may rot. We must come up with an efficient solution."
Due to the lack of iron tools and sophisticated forging technology, these huge gaps could only be filled by manpower.
However, there is no need to be so stubborn all the time.
Gu Yuexuan absentmindedly slid the back of her hand across the water. Suddenly, she turned her head and looked at Tu Subo with a determined gaze: "Are you free? Can you help me draw some designs?"
Although Gu Yuexuan herself is not good at drawing, Tu Subo can master it easily.
Not only is he extremely intelligent and quick to grasp things, but no matter how crude Gu Yuexuan's original design drawings are, he can skillfully transform them into exquisite works of art.
The two of them spent the entire day discussing the design sketch, which was finally handed to Tu Suting. When Tu Suting saw it, he didn't even bother to eat. He rolled up his sleeves and headed straight for the backyard.
This time we are going to make a relatively simple tool.
A device that can automatically sow seeds.
After Tu Suting finished, he excitedly carried it to the field and called out to Tu Subo who was plowing from a distance: "Come quickly! Come and try this!" His voice was full of anticipation and joy.
Ingenuity and ingenuity are poured into the detailed design of the seed spreader.
A seed storage box sits on top, its bottom lined with vertical rows of holes to evenly distribute the rice seeds. The box's sides cleverly connect to the raised portion of the plow's front end. As the plow slowly moves forward, the operator grips the wind lever on the box and gently pushes it. The rice seeds stored in the box are evenly distributed along the holes, falling onto the soft soil like a drizzle.
Tu Subo steadily advanced along the ridges of the field, holding the plow rake. Tu Suting followed intently, watching as rows of rice seeds were embedded in the soil. After crossing half an acre of fertile land, he sat down excitedly, clapping his hands and shouting, "It's done!"
"This time it really worked!" Tu Subo looked up at the sky, his eyes full of joy, and said with a smile: "Plowing the land and sowing seeds kill two birds with one stone. It saves both labor and time. This seed spreader is really a good thing."
Tu Suting responded proudly: "Of course!"
"This is Xuanxuan's special innovation, how could it be bad?" He grabbed a handful of soil and stood up, unable to contain his joy. He continued, "With this seed spreader, sowing is greatly simplified. I have to go back and make a few more to avoid delaying your farming progress!"
Tu Suting, extremely excited, ran away quickly. Tu Subo looked at his back, shook his head and smiled, without saying much.
The spring breeze gradually blew stronger, and the villagers were busy working in the fields.
The Tu Su family is no exception.
The family had reclaimed and purchased nearly 200 mu of land, and cultivating such a vast expanse was no easy task. Therefore, the family had hired numerous skilled farmers to assist with the spring plowing. They were incredibly busy, working without rest for two weeks straight.
Gu Yuexuan is also a busy member, but what she is busy with is difficult for others to interfere with.
After much searching, she found the spot where the wild rice had grown the previous year and searched there for several days. Finally, among the dead grass and rotten leaves on the riverbed, she found the precious rice seeds she had been looking for for a long time.
The old grandfather took a look and found that her handwriting was much better now, and nodded with satisfaction.
There are so many things to do in the fields and at home, and I am busy with chores.
But Gu Yuexuan did not delay the task he had assigned to her before. No matter how busy she was every day, she would find time to do it. She did not do it perfunctorily or make excuses. Her handwriting, which was awful before, now has some style and she has made great progress.
The old grandfather liked Gu Yuexuan's steadiness and was about to praise her and ask her to take a break, but before he could open his mouth, he coughed violently a few times.
Upon hearing the sound, Gu Yuexuan quickly put down what she was holding and ran to pour a glass of water.
