When Su Yan returned to her parents' home, she also brought baskets of rice dumplings. Su Qingshan would send the ones he couldn't finish to the countryside to give to his parents and brothers.
Su Qingshan couldn't bear it any longer, so he asked Su Yan to leave all the rice dumplings to him, and he helped to deal with them. In the end, the rice dumplings turned into money.
If she wants to eat rice dumplings again during the Dragon Boat Festival next year, she can just make them herself. There are still thousands of kilograms of glutinous rice in the kitchen. She doesn't want to eat the zombie rice dumplings from the previous year.
Su Yan plans to clear out twenty acres of medicinal fields and plant ten acres of rice, five acres of wheat, two acres of glutinous rice, and three acres of cotton next spring to achieve self-sufficiency.
All the acres of cotton planted on the hillside were harvested, and only about 1,000 kilograms of seed cotton were obtained. After removing the seeds with a machine, only 406 kilograms of lint cotton were left.
She kept 106 kilograms for herself and asked her father to help sell the remaining 300 kilograms.
Su Yan gave 30 kilograms of the 106 kilograms of lint to her mother-in-law and her own mother, asking them to use them to make quilts and cotton-padded clothes.
She kept 46 kilograms for herself, used 20 kilograms of cotton to make sofa cushions, and made two thick quilts with the remaining 20 kilograms. The heaviest quilt in her dowry was only 6 kilograms, so this time she made two large quilts weighing 10 kilograms.
The remaining six pounds of cotton were used to make a cotton jacket for Lu Ting and two for himself.
Lu Ting said it was cold in winter and asked her to make a new pair of cotton pants. Su Yan refused to listen and disliked the cotton pants because they were ugly and heavy.
Anyway, her little villa has warm underwear and cotton-padded stretch pants, so she doesn't have to be afraid of heavy snow, right?
Su Yan didn't know how cold the winter was in this era. In her previous life, she was from the south, so she naturally couldn't understand how cold the winter was in the north. Now it was October in the Gregorian calendar, and she didn't feel anything at all.
