He Zhilan nodded, but then quickly shook her head: "It's not as fast as you say, the soil underneath will still be a bit wet."
"It will take some time to dry completely, especially in areas near the mountains. That's why, while the situation is so severe in Qishan County next door, most of the crops near our Xiahe Village are not in such bad shape."
