Mo Yuan was taken aback at first, then said, "That's good news. Why do you look like that? You let your family know you're safe so they won't worry. What did you say in your letter to your parents?"
It seems to have touched on Lin Xue's painful memories.
Lin Xue, her face streaked with tears, threw herself into Mo Yuan's arms, and it took her a long time to calm down.
"Waaaaah, I told them I'm doing great now, and I'm even married, but they...they don't seem to believe me. And in their reply, they said they couldn't help me much, that life isn't easy for them in the city either, and that I should take care of myself. They even told me not to go back..."
Mo Yuan immediately understood what was going on. He guessed that Lin Xue's parents didn't believe what Lin Xue was thinking either. Indeed, without seeing it with their own eyes, they would definitely think Lin Xue's current situation was somewhat unbelievable.
A young woman who had been sent to the city during the Cultural Revolution didn't return. Instead, she married a poor man from the countryside and suddenly her life changed dramatically. Not only did she receive a dowry of over two hundred yuan, but she also got a job with three turns and one radio.
They even started a business and made a lot of money every day. It all sounds like a fairy tale!
It's likely that Lin Xue's parents also felt that Lin Xue was just making up a lie to put their minds at ease, and that's why they wouldn't let Lin Xue go back.
He must have felt it wasn't right to explain to his aunt, since they had agreed before that he would let Lin Xue marry into the family and settle the score between the two families!
This is a complex and multifaceted issue. It can't be explained in just a few words!
Mo Yuan could only gently pat Lin Xue's back to soothe her.
"Alright, alright, it's alright now. At least let your parents know you're safe and sound. They're just looking out for you, worried that you might cause trouble when you get back. But don't worry, I'll go back with you, and everything will be fine. After all, we're married now, so it's only right that we go to Shanghai, but we can't right now. Let's wait a bit longer! Don't be discouraged. If they don't believe your explanation, so be it. Just keep in touch with your family and let them know you're safe. Send them some money back to help with household expenses; that'll be fulfilling your filial duty as a daughter! Okay, don't be sad!"
Hearing Mo Yuan say that, Lin Xue finally calmed down a bit.
"At this point, this is the only way! Mo Yuan, thank you! I... I don't even know how to thank you enough..."
"What are you saying? We're husband and wife, why are you saying these things? Besides, if you want to express your gratitude, isn't it easy to say so? Hehe."
After saying that, Mo Yuan was about to turn off the light when he groped his way towards Lin Xue.
Soon, the couple's joyful duet filled the bed.
Newlyweds, naturally, want more than enough.
Nothing more was said that night...
...
Days passed by, and before we knew it, half a month had gone by.
Although there were still some rumors in the village at that time that were not optimistic about raising pigs,
But whenever they encountered this kind of person, the team wouldn't argue; instead, they would listen attentively, their hands clasped together.
After listening, they would often remain silent, exchange glances, and give each other a disdainful smile, as if looking at fools.
He turned and left, seemingly too lazy to even open his mouth to explain!
Seeing this, those who try to pour cold water on the idea always end up making a fool of themselves, and then they'll just say to themselves, "See? They're feeling guilty now. I told you so! I knew that thing was unreliable!"
Little did they know, in the eyes of everyone on the first team, they were preparing to pull off something big and thoroughly humiliate these people.
Now, everything is back on track, the pig farm has become the top priority, and it is guarded every day.
Unrelated persons are absolutely not allowed to approach.
Those who weren't involved naturally didn't know the specifics, and everyone else was very tight-lipped, as Mo Yuan had previously instructed them.
This matter should be handled discreetly, and we should try not to cause too much of a stir.
What others say is irrelevant; the truth will emerge naturally by the time of the New Year.
Let's all make our fortune quietly, so that no one gets jealous and tries to cause trouble!
Everyone believed Mo Yuan's words without a doubt, watching the piglets change every day.
In just half a month, it's already noticeably grown a lot, and it feels quite heavy in your hand.
From then on, she believed Mo Yuan's words without a doubt. These big white pigs were indeed unlike the black domestic pigs that everyone had raised before.
It's growing really fast. If it keeps growing like this, it will really weigh over 200 pounds by the end of the year!
All of this is partly due to the superior variety; after all, this variety was an improved version adapted to the local conditions.
The original Berkshire Large White pig was known for its fast growth and high meat yield.
Another important reason, which is unclear to everyone,
Mo Yuan did indeed know, and it was related to his newly developed fermented feed!
After the villagers brought back the soybean cake and soybean residue, Mo Yuan, following the methods he had learned before, specially made a fermented feed suitable for piglets!
Currently, everything in this field is still in its early stages, and research in this area is not yet in-depth. Ordinary roughage, including that provided by Professor Yan and his colleagues, although rich in crude fiber and protein such as cellulose, hemicellulose, pectin, and lignin, is difficult for piglets to digest and absorb directly.
Moreover, consuming it will increase the burden on the animal's intestines and easily cause intestinal diseases.
However, the feed made by fermenting roughage with microorganisms is called fermented feed. It can not only make up for the amino acids that are easily lacking in conventional feed, but also enable the nutrients of other roughage raw materials to be rapidly converted, thereby enhancing the digestibility and utilization of nutrients.
This is why the piglets change every day and grow so fast. Even Teacher Yan would be astonished when she saw them!
When the scale is expanded, it can be used not only to feed pigs, but also to raise chickens.
Mo Yuan has even made plans to build a feed mill!
With just this patented technology, they can make a fortune!
However, everyone's focus isn't entirely on that right now. Besides the daily trips to the oil mill to pick up raw materials, there aren't many people needed to take care of the piglets.
Right now, everyone in Xiaomozhuang is truly focused on only one thing!
The wheat is ripe!
Early that morning, the village party secretary began his mobilization over the loudspeaker.
After all the laborers have had breakfast, they should all gather on the hillside behind the village.
There are no harvesters now; everything has to be harvested by hand. A few days prior to this...
The drying and threshing grounds have been cleared, and preparations are underway to receive this year's harvest.
Every able-bodied person in each household carried a sickle and had towels wrapped around their heads.
Everyone is in position, ready to wait for the team leader to assign production tasks.
Before this, the annual sickle-pulling ceremony was still indispensable.
The village's most respected former Party Secretary, Mo Youxian, wearing a white towel on his head and holding a sickle, was the first to cut the first sheaf of wheat.
Then, facing the densely packed villagers, he used all his strength...
He roared out an inspiring sound.
"Let's start harvesting!"
With this shout, the villagers went to find their respective production team leaders.
Prepare to accept your next task.
The annual wheat harvest season has begun.
