Chapter 168 Will He Like Her?
When Shen Qingqian heard that new soil had been dug up, she quickly ran towards Shen Yong.
That’s great! As long as we can dig it up, it means that this place can still be cultivated.
When she ran closer, she saw Shen Yong squatting on the ground happily, holding a handful of soil and grinning foolishly.
"Sixth sister, look, it's loess!" Shen Yong smiled proudly.
During this period, their family began to get involved in farming and gained a basic understanding of the land.
Loess is suitable for growing crops such as radish, barley, peanuts, sorghum, etc., which are mainly food and vegetables; red soil is suitable for growing sugarcane, fruit trees, rice, tea, etc., which are more economic crops.
If the land in the valley was all loess, then the tasks assigned to them by the court could basically be completed.
Shen Qingqian also squatted down, pinched a handful of soil and looked at it carefully, then looked at the depth of the loess that Shen Yong had dug, and he already had an idea in his mind.
"Fourth brother, keep turning and see how deep we can dig to get the loess. Then we can level the land." Shen Qingqian thought for a while and said to Shen Yong.
At this time, the depth of the soil that Chen Yong had turned over was about two feet. If the entire valley was in a similar situation, it would be more convenient to make a unified plan later.
But if the soil quality of some plots is not good, or if you need to dig more than three feet underground, it will be too troublesome and tiring.
The reason why Shen Yong was able to dig up the loess so quickly was entirely thanks to the heavy rain a few days ago and the drizzle that followed. If they had started digging two days later, it would have taken more effort.
"Okay, I have endless energy now. Just wait and see, Fourth Brother will definitely turn over every corner of our house!" Shen Yong said with great enthusiasm.
Ling Yun tsk- ...
"You! Humph," Shen Yong had just been teased by him this morning, so he couldn't help but feel unconvinced when he heard this. "Then just wait, I'll show you today..."
He didn't finish what he said, because he thought of the previous lesson, and only dared to mutter in a low voice: "If this young master finishes, I will definitely make a big fool of myself in return!"
Ling Yun shrugged, winked at Shen Shan who was watching the fun on the side, and made a mouth shape of "waiting to see the fun".
Shen Shan almost laughed out loud, but he was a kind person. After all, Shen Yong was his brother, so how could he really laugh?
Shen Qingqian simply couldn't stand Shen Yong. As soon as she met Cheng Yun, her fourth brother turned into a living treasure.
When the other families saw that the Shen family had actually dug up loess, they became even more eager to follow the Shen family in doing this. A large group of people rushed back to their own fields and hurriedly cleared the stones from the ground.
Seeing that it was getting later and later, Shen Yong looked at the land that was less than half turned over, and finally went to ask Ling Yun for help in a dejected manner.
But this time Ling Yun did not laugh at him. He took the improved moldboard plow and started to turn the soil madly.
Shen Qingqian was stunned. People with skills are just different! Look at Cheng Yun's posture. Tsk tsk, it's not that she looks down on others, it's just that the contrast is too obvious. They are not on the same level at all.
When Sheng Ze saw that Shen Qingqian's eyes were fixed on Ling Yun, his face immediately turned cold, and Shen Qingxiao, who had mustered up the courage to offer him water, retreated in fear.
"Go ahead, it's just delivering some water, what are you afraid of?" Shen Qingman said with amusement looking at Shen Qingxiao's lost expression.
Shen Qingxiao sighed, "Forget it, let's do it next time."
His face was so cold that even if she sent him some water, there would be no good result. It would be better to wait until he was in a better mood so that she could at least have a few words with him.
But will he like her?
