Chapter 22 Sowing Seeds
If it is a square field, the side length is about 25 meters.
If it is a rectangle, the length and width are thirty-two and twenty respectively.
It's similar to a slightly larger basketball court.
However, when he arrived at the river, Jiang Fubao looked at the farmland opposite.
She then realized that she had overthought.
What rectangle square.
These fields have no rules at all and are of strange shapes. Some look like rabbits, some look like benches. I don't know how the government measured them.
"Fubao, let grandma hold you. We need to cross the bridge." The granddaughter fell into the water.
Worried that she was scared.
Zhang Jinlan prepared to carry Jiang Fubao across the bridge.
"It's okay, grandma. I can walk by myself." After traveling through time for several days, Jiang Fubao no longer felt the nervousness he had when he first arrived.
Although she still speaks like a child.
But in other matters, Jiang Fubao is very independent.
After all, she is an adult at heart, and she feels uncomfortable being held in the arms of her family all the time.
"Okay, then walk slowly and don't fall." Zhang Jinlan didn't force it.
"Got it." Jiang Fubao responded and climbed onto the bridge.
This wooden bridge has been there for decades.
It was built by a partnership in the village.
Not a penny was spent, but every family contributed.
The bridge is neither wide nor long.
Three adults can pass through it at the same time, and it only takes a dozen steps to walk from one end to the other.
According to memory, after getting off the bridge.
Jiang Fubao turned a corner and came to the innermost position on the right hand side.
The Jiang family farmland is here.
"Fubao, just sit here obediently. Your mom and dad are going to work. Don't run around, and don't go to the river to play."
Zhang Yanzi put the small chair she brought from home on the road.
Let Jiang Fubao sit down.
He also told her not to go to the river.
The day her daughter fell into the water, she was so frightened that she almost lost her soul.
Just as it is said.
Once bitten by a snake, one will be afraid of the rope for ten years.
This is exactly what Zhang Yanzi was feeling at the moment.
"Got it. Go to work, Mom." Jiang Fubao sat down, raised his head and agreed obediently.
Only then did Zhang Yanzi feel relieved.
At this time, the Jiang family had only three little kids, Jiang Fubao, Jiang Tongji and Jiang Tongxiang, who did not have to work because they were too young.
Of the remaining thirteen people, two were responsible for one acre of land.
One digs and the other plants the seeds.
The extra Jiang Tongjin fetched water by himself.
Fuck for a while.
The villagers came one after another.
Farmers depend on the weather for their livelihood.
Since Zhang Jinlan could tell that it would not rain again, other families would naturally know it as well.
Therefore, every household carried a hoe and a dung bucket and went to the fields to sow seeds.
Just like the Jiang family.
The whole family went out.
"Auntie Lan, you guys are here to plant seeds too? Oh, Fubao is here too? Come on, let Auntie hold you. Look, you look like a Fuwawa. If you don't know, you would think you are a fairy from heaven. Fubao, do you think Auntie is carrying a boy or a girl?"
Just as Jiang Fubao was watching her family working in the fields, a clear sound came from far away and gradually approached until it echoed right next to her ears.
Jiang Fubao turned around and saw the woman who was talking picked her up and asked her to guess the gender of her baby with a smile. Jiang Fubao was confused.
She quickly searched her memory and realized that the woman holding her was called Xu Zhaoer.
The original owner's grandfather, Jiang Shoujia, and Xu Zhaoer's father-in-law are related by blood.
Although two servers have been released.
But the two families have similar personalities, and their fields happen to be adjacent, so they get along quite well.
Jiang Fubao looked down.
I noticed that Xu Zhaoer's belly was slightly bulging.
I estimate I am four months pregnant.
It’s true, Xu Zhaoer really asked the right person.
Jiang Fubao graduated from a Chinese Medical University. Before she traveled through time, she worked in a clinic every day and had never made a mistake in taking pulses. Naturally, she had the confidence to take Xu Zhaoer's pulse.
Jiang Fubao just raised the corners of his mouth and smiled slightly.
She pretended to grab Xu Zhaoer's arm.
In fact, his fingertips were placed on Xu Zhaoer's wrist.
[It's only the beginning of March? Why is my belly bulging so early? My pulse is really weird. Could it be...]
Jiang Fubao began to feel doubtful.
She frowned.
Continue taking pulse.
[Both wrists are stable and strong, like beads bouncing, the left wrist is solid, the right wrist is thin, she is actually pregnant with two babies! And one boy and one girl are dragon and phoenix twins, no wonder her belly is so big. ]
Jiang Fubao solved the doubt.
At this time, a long time had passed, and just when Xu Zhaoer thought that Jiang Fubao didn't want to talk and was about to put her down.
Jiang Fubao then spoke slowly: "Auntie's belly has a brother and a sister."
"What? Hahaha, Fubao, don't make fun of Auntie. How could you have brothers and sisters? Could it be that Auntie is pregnant with twins? Child, Auntie is not that lucky. Okay, Fubao, play by yourself. Auntie has to go to work."
Xu Zhaoer was stunned for a moment.
Then he burst into laughter.
She was just teasing Jiang Fubao.
Naturally, I didn't take this seriously.
She has been married to Jiangjia Village for six years.
This is the second pregnancy.
The first was a girl. She was born with insufficient fetuses and caught a cold last spring. She died before she was three years old.
She cried for half a year before she came out of the haze.
It just so happened that Jiang Fubao was about the same age as her deceased daughter, so Xu Zhaoer liked Jiang Fubao very much and would hug her whenever she saw her.
"They say babies can see things we can't. Who knows, maybe they are really embroiled in a dragon-and-phoenix relationship. Madam Xu, your pregnancy looks good. I see that you are in good health. The baby you give birth to will be healthy. If it is really an embroiled dragon-and-phoenix relationship, you must give our Fubao a gift."
Zhang Jinlan didn't take her granddaughter's words seriously.
I said so much just because poor Xu Zhaoer's daughter died young and I wanted to make her happy.
"It seems that no one in our village has ever been pregnant with twins. No, more than 20 years ago, the daughter-in-law of Sanzhuzi's family at the entrance of the village gave birth to twins. The two girls looked exactly the same. I couldn't tell which one was which.
Later, when they grew up, they were spotted by a wealthy old man in Chang'an Town, who bought them back and made them concubines. Sanzhuzi's family received a full 100 taels of silver, and then moved to Chang'an Town and never came back. I don't know how their family is doing now."
Xu Zhaoer's mother-in-law Wang Taohua recalled the past and spoke in a low voice.
"Humph, he actually dared to come back! Just look at how the clan leader will punish him. This beast deserves a miserable death. Even if he is greedy for money, he cannot sell his daughter to be a concubine. My Sanhe has been criticized by others every time she looks for a boyfriend.
If it weren't for them, I would have married Sanhe to Zhangjia Village instead of Sunjia Village! Fortunately, time has passed and no one mentioned this matter anymore, otherwise all the girls in our village would have been implicated by him."
Zhang Jinlan got angry when she mentioned this.
Originally, she wanted to marry her daughter to her parents' village so that she would be looked after by acquaintances and would not go to a strange place and be bullied by her husband's family.
Moreover, Zhangjia Village is much richer than Jiangjia Village.
At least every family can have enough food to eat and warm clothes to wear.
A daughter enjoys more happiness after she gets married than at home.
