"Yes, I will obey your orders."
Chen Li's idea was not sudden. An Wu had been with her for so long, and he always received double the monthly allowance. Now she felt a little embarrassed to take the one hundred taels of silver.
“What crops are grown on these lands now?”
"They're all sorghum, corn, peanuts, soybeans, etc."
So these are late-maturing crops, but since they have already been planted, Chenli can't do anything to destroy the crops.
In today's cruel apocalypse, food is undoubtedly the most precious thing, so she would not do that.
It seems that only after this harvest can the land be left idle.
But that’s okay. I’ll find a place to grow some seeds first. When there are more seeds, I can plant more.
In addition, she needed to find a place to hide. The seeds Lu Jing gave her were limited, and if she took out too many, she would not be able to explain it.
Thinking of this, he got up and went to find Shen Changshan, “Dad, I need two pieces of idle dry land.”
Shen Changshan thought in his mind that there was no vacant land at home, so if he wanted it, he would have to go to the foot of the mountain to open up wasteland.
After all, food is such a precious thing nowadays that no one would leave land vacant.
"Ali, there's no vacant dry land. If you want it, I'll call a few people to go and open up some wasteland. No matter how big you want, we can get it for you quickly."
"Not too big, two plots of one acre will be fine. I'll go with you."
Shen Changshan could always hear her urgency, but he didn't want his smart and beautiful daughter to do such rough work.
"No need, just wait at home. It will be ready in two days. Don't worry."
"Okay, I'm not in a hurry. Take your time, Dad."
Anyway, it's already so late no matter how hard we try, so there's no need to rush in these two days.
Chen Li came to the front yard and had five large water jars moved back to his yard. He filled them with soil, planted potatoes in two jars and corn in three jars.
She wanted to observe what was the difference between these things and those in later generations?
Of course, you can also observe what’s in space, but you also have to display some of it openly.
After sowing the seeds, there won't be many left. You need more, as potato seeds are relatively less.
A few days later, when Shen Li was teaching Shen Mochi to recite the Three Character Classic, she heard someone outside reporting that the young master and young lady of the Lu family had arrived.
When Chen Li heard it, she knew that it was Lu Jing and Lu Nian, brother and sister, who had come.
In the reception room, Shen Changshan and Lin Cuicui were entertaining the brother and sister.
Shen Changshan said cheerfully, "Ajing, A'nian, you two brothers and sisters haven't been here for a long time, especially A'nian, you have grown into a big girl."
Lu Nian said with a well-behaved face, "Uncle and aunt, I want to come too, but my brother won't take me."
"Yeah, that's all your brother's fault."
"Yes, yes, that's what I think."
When Shen Li arrived, she saw the brother and sister chatting happily with Shen Changshan and his wife.
"Grandpa and grandma."
Shen Mochi rushed into Shen Changshan's arms like a small cannonball, and I looked at Lu Nian with curiosity.
"Sister Ali, you're here."
"Dad, Mom, A Jing, A Nian."
Lu Nian pointed at the little fat boy in his arms and asked, "Uncle Shen, this is..."
"This is Ali's eldest brother's child, the one in my belly."
Lu Nian poked his fair and tender cheek and said, "Brother is so cute."
After they chatted for a while, Lu Nian couldn't sit still anymore. She kept holding a small box in her arms, which should be a gift for Shen Xiaoya.
"Sister Ali, I want to go play with the duckling, brother, is that okay?"
Chen Li nodded: "As long as your eldest brother agrees, I will have someone take you there."
Lu Jing nodded, "Go ahead, remember to bring Ying with you."
"Okay, I'm leaving now."
Yingxiang immediately followed her pace. Yingxiang was specially found by Lu Jing. She had learned martial arts and had been a bodyguard before. She had very good martial arts skills.
Shen Changshan talked to Lu Jing for a while, and then the couple left. Lu Jing came to see A Li, so he must have something to do, so it would be better not to waste their time.
"Come with me, I've planted some in my yard, and they've already sprouted."
“So fast.”
"Well, it's warm now, so it grows fast."
The two of them quickly arrived at Chen Li's yard. Lu Jing saw the conspicuous large vat in the yard at a glance. After taking a few quick steps, he saw some green sprouts growing in it.
He still couldn't believe it. It was incredible that such a fragile seedling could grow so much food in the end.
"There's more in the backyard. I'll take you to see it."
"Um."
He couldn't wait any longer.
"I've also opened up two acres of wasteland on the hillside far away to grow corn and potatoes. If you want to see it, I'll take you there later."
"No need, it's all the same, just look at it here."
There was a bamboo forest behind Chen Li's yard, and there was a small pavilion built inside. She accompanied him to watch the bamboo forest for a while, and then sat in the pavilion waiting for him.
Lu Jing's expression was as if a pervert saw a beautiful woman. If he had put this willpower on a girl, he wouldn't still be single now.
"Duckling!"
Lu Nian was reserved at first, until he saw Shen Xiaoya practicing calligraphy in the yard. He stuffed the box into Yingxiang's hands and trotted over while holding up her skirt and shouting.
Shen Xiaoya put down the brush in his hand and took two steps forward, bumping into Lu Nian who was running towards him. He took two steps back and steadied himself.
"Little Duck, I missed you so much!"
Although the two girls are about the same age, perhaps because of her martial arts training, Shen Xiaoya is half a head taller than Lu Nian. In addition, she is more mature, so when they stand together, she looks like her older sister.
Lu Nian took the box from Yingxiang and said, "Little Duck, these are all things I like, so I prepared some for you as well."
Shen Xiaoya saw the passing villagers looking at her house, walked over to close the gate, pulled Lu Nian into the house, and saw her stuffing a box into her arms, so she hugged her.
"Little Duck, where are your parents?"
"They went to the fields."
"oh."
Lu Nian looked at the surrounding environment. It was indeed a bit too shabby for her, but she did not show any disgust, because she had experienced it before, and it was even worse than this.
My brother said that you should not try to hide what happened to you, because if you hide it, it will eventually become a sharp blade that hurts people. Only by exposing it can you become strong and others cannot use it to hurt you.
"Little duck, come and take a look."
"good."
Shen Xiaoya opened the wooden box, revealing the jewelry inside. Each one was exquisite and unique, and one of them was the same as the one on Lu Nian's head.
Shen Xiaoya took a closer look, a faint smile appearing on the corner of her mouth. These jewelries were not very expensive and were within her acceptable range.
"Thank you, Anian."
Lu Nian looked at her, wrinkled his nose and asked, "Why are you thanking me? Do you like it?"
"like."
Lu Nian smiled, his eyes curved and his eyebrows made people happy. "I'm glad you like it. I'll bring it to you next time."
