Chapter 214 The epidemic is under control



The handkerchief in Tong Wenyao's hand is decorated with platycodon. It is light green and looks very nice. It is embroidered very beautifully, which shows that a lot of effort was put into it.

The handkerchief in Xing'er's hand was light yellow, with a yellow apricot flower embroidered on it.

"Sister Qiuxia, it's obvious that this handkerchief of yours took a long time to embroider. You can sell it in the county for a lot of money. You should take them back quickly." After saying that, Tong Wenyao was about to stuff the handkerchief into her hand.

Even Xing Er followed closely behind.

Qiuxia quickly declined, saying, "Wenyao, Xing'er, please accept it. This is a token of my love."

The last time she was at the door, it was Wen Yao who rescued her, so when she was lying in bed, she kept embroidering this handkerchief. Sometimes if she didn't embroider it well, she would take it apart and embroider it again, just to give the handkerchief to them.

"Wen Yao, Xing Er, this is a gift from my heart. I hope you can accept it. You've saved me time and time again, and I have no way to repay you. I can only embroider handkerchiefs in my free time. This is the only way I can think of to repay you."

There was sincerity in her eyes. Tong Wenyao originally wanted to say that she saved him without expecting anything in return, but after seeing her, she said, "Thank you. The handkerchief is beautifully embroidered. I like it very much."

When Qiuxia heard this, her face was no longer so sad. She smiled brightly and said, "I asked my mother-in-law to take this handkerchief to the temple to be blessed. It can bless peace."

She continued, "Then I'll go back today. Thank you Wen Yao and Xing Er." After saying that, she walked towards the door. When her mother-in-law saw her, she helped to support her.

Tong Wen Yao couldn't help but feel happy for her when she saw how well her mother-in-law treated her. It could be said that she seldom saw such a harmonious relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. Even in modern times, it was rare to see such a harmonious relationship. She didn't expect to see it here. When she first came here, Qiuxia had been married here for three years and had not been pregnant in these three years. Even so, Aunt Fang still treated her as well as her own daughter.

Just like last time, when Qiuxia was framed by Mrs. Sun at the spicy snack workshop, Aunt Fang rushed up and scolded Mrs. Sun without hesitation. She had always believed that her daughter-in-law had not cheated.

After a while, Dongzi came in from outside with a smile on his face and said, "Boss, Boss, the epidemic has been brought under control in Yuguan County. The city gates can be opened now, but people entering and leaving still need to be checked for fever, and only people from our side are allowed in and out."

After hearing this, Tong Wen Yao said, "You go find the village chief and ask him to take people to the county to pull over the cement and bricks stored at the cement building. Then the people from the cement building will go to Changzhen Village to get them." Because Changzhen Village had not been unsealed yet, Tong Wen Yao told Dongzi to go directly to the county to get the goods.

Finally, she continued, "Don't bother with the goods from the county magistrate. Build Mr. Ji's house first."

Dongzi nodded, went out again, mounted his horse and rode away.

Tong Wen Yao stood on the roof and saw that the foundation next to the big elm tree was almost ready. Once the materials arrived, they could build the house.

The weather is getting warmer now, and I don’t know how the compost made in Changzhen Village is doing.

With the ringing of the bell, the village school in Dayushu was over. Tong Wenyao could see Xin'er and Wen Jiang coming back hand in hand. Wen Jiang's matter could not be delayed any longer. She would go to the south after the spring!

Wen Jiang coughed from time to time, and Xin'er supported him. Seeing this, Tong Wen Yao's eyes felt a little sore and tears welled up in her eyes. It was too easy for her to die like that.

Just as she was about to go check on the composting, Wu Qing came over and said, "Wen Yao, I went to check on the composting pit you mentioned. It's full of rotting leaves. The smell is a bit pungent, and it makes me feel a little dizzy after smelling it for a long time. I don't know if it's working."

When Tong Wen Yao arrived at the composting area, two people had already fainted. The village chief asked someone to cover their mouths and noses and drag the two people out.

Tong Wen Yao immediately gave him an acupuncture, and he slowly woke up.

"Village chief, I'm composting, why are you here?" Wu Qing knocked the ground with his cane and said, "If I had come a step later, you would have met your father."

Tong Wenyao looked around before speaking, "When composting, try to avoid standing under the wind, or you'll faint from the smell."

She walked around to the top of the vent, flipped the soil a few times with a wooden stick, and said, "This fertilizer can be spread on the ground or in the fields in a few days. Spring is almost here, so it's a good time to apply fertilizer before spring."

Most of the compost here is made from chicken manure, and some are even mixed with cow manure. Since there are many sheep in Changzhen Village, sheep manure is used for composting.

Tong Wenyao stood up and clapped her hands, then walked over to Wu Qing and said, "Village Chief, I have two kinds of grain seeds. Do you want to find someone to plant them first? Then, when there are enough seeds, you can distribute them to the villagers to plant?"

In addition to the corn and potatoes she had previously given to Changzhen Village, she also planted several crops in the space during this period, so she had some seeds.

After hearing this, Wu Qing hurriedly asked, "What kind of seeds are these? Do we know how to plant them? Or, Wen Yao, you should leave it to a professional. I'm worried they might spoil it."

She smiled and said, "Don't worry, Village Chief. I have asked them to plant some in other places. This is the leftover."

Wu Qing finally felt relieved after hearing this and said, "In that case, I'll thank Wen Yao on their behalf." Tong Wen Yao quickly said, "Why bother thanking me? When we first came here, it was you, the village chief, who came to pick us up and even sent people to help repair our house. We remember all of that."

When they reached the door, Tong Wenyao said, "Village Chief, I'll have someone bring the things over to you later. You can then arrange for people to plant them. For potatoes, you can cut them into small pieces for planting. For corn, you can plant about three or four kernels in one hole."

"Okay, okay, thank you Wen Yao." If they can really grow the crops, it will be easier for them to pay taxes. Wen Yao said that the yield of corn per acre is 600 to 700 kilograms, and the yield of potatoes is about 1,000 kilograms.

If Wen Yao had not been here, he would have hugged his wife and cried bitterly. The wheat they planted produced about 400 kilograms per acre, and this was under normal circumstances of good weather. However, the two kinds of wheat given by Wen Yao could produce 600 to 700 kilograms per acre. In addition, they applied fertilizer before planting this time, so the yield would probably be greatly increased.

Tong Wen Yao returned to the warehouse in the backyard. She took out potatoes and corn from the space, then went out and called Xiao Hua.

"Take this to the village chief and others." Xiaohua looked at the two baskets of potatoes and corn and thought to himself, weren't we giving them these in Changzhen Village? How come there are still some here?
