Fortunate Life of the Rural Beauty

Although Sa Sa looks fierce and looks like adults should not get close to her, she especially likes children and her eyes are much gentler when she sees them. Gradually, the children are no longer afraid of it. Especially Chu Hanyan likes it more because its fur is white, soft and beautiful. She hugs its fat body and rubs its back with her little face when she has nothing to do.

At the end of July, golden swallows are still flying out every day, and they must seize the time to play in the woods. But he comes back almost every day and plays with Dabao and Chu Hanyan because they can't bear to part with it.

Because it had to come back every day, it only took Qiqi and Huihui out, but not Zhui Feng and Sa Sa. Although dogs can run fast, it is still too hard to travel back and forth such a long distance.

Chu Lingxuan didn't even come back from Xiu Mu these days. He went out of town on business.

Chen Ming is also busy. The rice harvest is about to begin. He and Old Man Zeng are going to Laohuai Village in Zhongning County. The seeds used in the two hundred acres of fields there were all high-quality seeds that had been released in the space, but the old farmers did not listen to Chen Afu's instructions at that time - soak the seeds. Despite this, the rice there is still growing well. I heard that the empty rice rate is very low, there are very few empty husks, and the rice grains are full and the rice stalks are bent, which makes the tenant farmers smile with joy.

Before Chen Ming left, Chen Afu still reminded him that Chen Shiying was the parent official of this side, and the rice there grew much better than other rice fields. He, the county magistrate, and the agricultural officials would definitely go to inspect.

When Chen Ming heard that he would not only see Chen Shiying, but also the county magistrate and other officials, he became a little scared. Chen Afu told him not to be afraid, and asked Old Man Zeng to just answer those people's words.

On August 2, old man Lin and his son from Wangshan Village came, bringing a basket of tender corn cobs. He was so happy that his mouth reached behind his ears and said, "Girl, these are the corn cobs grown from the seeds you brought. My God, the cobs are long and big, and some even have two branches. I guess, that one One hundred acres of land can yield more than 400 kilograms per acre.”

Here, the average corn yield per mu is more than 200 kilograms in many cases, while the poor land in the mountainous areas is less than 200 kilograms. If we can really produce more than 400 kilograms per acre, it will be considered a blessing to the people.

Chen Afu was also very happy and asked Aunt Zeng to cook the corn, wondering how it would taste.

After the corn was cooked, it was not as delicious as Chen Afu expected. It was not too sweet and not too moist. Chen Afu was a little disappointed and wondered whether the corn seeds should be kept for a few more days. I didn't leave it for enough time, so the taste was a bit off.

After thinking about it for a while, I figured it out. In this era when many people don't even have enough to eat, the most important thing is to fill their stomachs, not the taste. As long as the output is high, the expected goal is achieved.

I figured it out and became happy again. I asked people to invite Wang and A Lu to come here for lunch, and also sent some to Steward Luo's family.

In ancient times, young corn was also considered a rare food. Except for very wealthy people, they rarely eat young corn because they think it is a waste of food. Old farmers have to wait until the corn is old before breaking it off. What grain shops sell are cornmeal ground from old corn.

Chen Afu also left a few corns, thinking that the birds like Golden Swallow, Qiqi, and Huihui would definitely like to eat them.

August 5th is here, and it’s time for Golden Swallow to enter the space again. It didn't go to play in the forest. It hung on Miss Chu's clothes during the day, and when Chen Dabao came back at night, it hung on him again.

Chu Hanyan was so happy and proud that she said to Chen Afu, "Auntie, Jinbao is so good today. He has been playing with sister and didn't go to the woods."

Dabao was much smarter. When he saw that Jin Yanzi was languid and his eyes seemed sad, he became worried and asked Chen Afu, "Mother, is Jin Bao going to the south soon? That must be the case. You can see that it can't bear to leave me." "

Chen Afu sighed and said nothing. Whether she wanted to let him go or not was secondary. With Jinbao outside, she would be much more confident in whatever she did. As soon as Jinbao entered, she was a little worried. Especially after knowing Dabao's true identity, he was even more afraid of what might happen.

At night, when the golden swallow was fast, it entered the space, and Chen Afu also accompanied it. Jin Yanzi was a little sad at first, but as soon as she hugged Jin Bei, she started to smile.

Suddenly, it said to Chen Afu, "Mommy, look, is there any change in the baby? I think its color is not as transparent as before."

"Really?" Chen Afu also leaned over and took a closer look. It seemed that the color was a little darker and not so crystal clear. It had a tendency to change into old beeswax. Incredulously, he said, "Yes."

Golden Swallow is beaming and can't get enough of holding it. Chen Afu then left the space.

Early the next morning, as soon as Chen Dabao got up, he walked out on crutches. He didn't bother to put on a coat, only wearing a bellyband and shorts. Qiuyue was so frightened that Qiuyue chased him out with his clothes.

He first went to the penthouse to look around and saw that only Qiqi and Huihui were in the basket. He exited again and looked at the birdcages on the porch one by one. There was nothing there. He went under the tree and looked up again, but there was still no sign of the golden swallow. He knew that Golden Swallow had gone to the south.

He returned to the upper room with his head hanging down and said to Chen Afu, "Mother, Jinbao is gone and he has gone back to the south."

Chen Afu said in surprise, "Really? It left today?" He then hugged Chen Dabao and said, "Don't be sad, son, it will fly back next spring."

"We are tens of thousands of miles away from the south, not as close as the mountains. What should we do if we can't find it?" This is Dabao's biggest worry.

"No, Jinbao is so smart. Won't he be found back this spring?" Chen Afu said.

After dinner, send the depressed Dabao out.

Chu Hanyan reacted much slower. She waited for a long time and was disappointed that Jin Yanzi didn't wait. When Dabao came over for dinner at noon, she burst into tears when she heard that Jin Yanzi might have gone to the south.

The little girl moaned and fussed for a long time, but Chen Afu did nothing and kept coaxing her. In the evening, the little girl felt better.

In mid-August, the rice harvest was finished, and Chen Ming and Old Man Zeng returned from Laohuai Village. Judging from their glowing faces and happy faces, you can tell that they have had a bumper rice harvest.

I heard from them that this time the amount of rice per acre reached more than 500 kilograms, and the rice grains were slender and greasy, and the taste was better than ordinary rice and only worse than bijing rice.

The prefect, the agricultural officials of the prefectural city, as well as the county magistrate and county magistrate all went there. They were very happy to see such good rice and praised Chen Ming and the tenant farmers who planted the rice. Let them save the seeds and vigorously promote this kind of rice in this area in the future. If it is planted in this area, it will be promoted nationwide...

Because of the direct involvement of the prefect and the strong backing of the Chu family, the rice merchants and major grain merchants who knew the news were unable to intervene, while the businessmen with more backing did not know the news. Therefore, these rice, including seeds, were sold directly by Fuyunlai Trading Company and Chen Erliang Store.
