Wang Xuejian was still a child after all. When Ruixue pointed to a table of toys and told him that they were all given to him by her, the little innocent child was immediately bribed by Ruixue, which strengthened Ruixue's sister's status, so Li Jinhua

When Qiao Zi and Qiao Zi sorted out the things Wang Xuejian brought back, they entered the house and saw the two children already playing happily together.

Dinner is as simple as lunch. The weather in the north is cool in the morning and evening, and it gets dark relatively early. After washing the dishes, Li Jinhua asked Xuejian and Ruixue to stay at home, while he took Qiao Zi to the village chief's house.

Bringing ten taels of silver and a bolt of fine cloth, the two of them came back soon with faces full of joy. Qiao Zi got the foundation next to Li Jinhua, and just wanted to hire someone to build the house. Then she and her daughter would have a home.

.

Li Jinhua enthusiastically helped Qiao Zi with her ideas, while Ruixue listened silently. She was not very good at anything other than farming. Besides, she was still a child and didn't have much say in order to avoid attracting attention.

Late at night, Li Jinhua was going to lay the floor in her son's room, but Qiao Zi pulled her and refused to let her go. They were both women, so why separate them? Besides, mother and daughter were guests, how could they drive away the master?

Helpless, Li Jinhua had no choice but to sleep on the same kang as Qiao Zi and her daughter. Fortunately, the kang at home was big enough, so even three more people wouldn't feel crowded.

The next day when Ruixue woke up, Li Jinhua and Qiao Zi had disappeared. Xuejian was sorting herbs and reading in the yard. Ruixue walked over and said, "Xuejian."

"Sister, you're awake. There's porridge in the kitchen. I'll bring it to you."

"Wait a minute, where are your mother and my mother?" Ruixue saw that the horses in the yard and the carriage at the door were gone, so she pulled Xuejian and asked.

"My mother and Aunt Qiao went to the city before dawn. They were going to hire someone to build a house. Mother said it was inconvenient to take us with her, so she asked us to stay at home and look after the house." With yesterday's exchange, today's snow meeting

It seems that Ruixue has become a lot more generous, maybe because calling her sister subconsciously treats her as a family member, so she feels so comfortable.

"That's it." Ruixue nodded. They went to the city to do errands. It would definitely be inconvenient to bring the children. She felt her stomach and found that she was indeed a little hungry. Before she could say anything, Ruixue had already rushed into the kitchen and took out the food reserved for her.

Breakfast was brought out. After breakfast, Rui Xue felt bored. Qiao Zi and the others would definitely not be able to come back for a while, so they might as well find something to do.

Thinking about this journey, it was extremely difficult to see crops since entering the Northern Territory. Even if she occasionally saw them, it was only from a distance. She was in a hurry and didn't look carefully. She wanted to take a look at this Northern Territory.

Thinking about how barren the land is, Ruixue called Xuejian, "Take me to see the crop fields in your village."

"Sister, why are you going to the crop field?" Xuejian asked curiously.

"You don't have to worry about it, just take me there."

"okay."

Along the way through the village, except for a few children playing, no adults were seen. Ruixue was a little surprised. When she reached the crop field, she suddenly realized that everyone was in the fields. After just watching for a while, what made her a little confused was that except the old man, everyone was in the fields.

It was a woman. Everyone was busy with their heads down, but they didn't see a young man. She told Xuejian her doubts, and Xuejian answered her doubts.

"It's not the busy farming season now. All the men in the village have gone to the city to work to support their families."

"That's it." Ruixue nodded, "Xuejian, where is your home?"

"Over there, I'll take you there."

"Okay." A crop field was planted entirely with corn. Ruixue followed Xue to see his family's crop field. At a glance, she discovered the problem. The output value of these corns was too low. Looking more closely, most of the corns were

There are insects stuck to the leaves.

When Xue Jian walked into his family's crop field, he got busy. Although he was shorter than Ruixue, his movements were extremely skillful. He quickly took away a bug on a leaf and threw it to the ground to crush it to death, and then went there again.

Picking up bugs on another corn leaf, "The harvest here is very low, but every year at this time, corns get bugs, and then the already low harvest of grain becomes even lower. I don't know what happened this year."

, there are more bugs than in previous years, and this year’s harvest is not enough for me and my mother to eat.”

Li Jinhua is an orphan and a widowed mother. There is no man in the family. Li Jinhua does all the farm work by herself. It has been very difficult for her to raise her son alone for so many years. If she hadn't seen some minor problems and relied on the crop fields, she would have starved to death.

But even so, the family is still very poor.

Ruixue looked at the bugs on the corn leaves. They should be armyworms. In modern times, if you buy a pack of pesticides and a dozen of them, all the pests would be wiped out. But in ancient times, the problem would be huge. Look at the soil on the ground again.

There are cracks and dry spots. No wonder the harvest in the north is so low. The land here is too barren. However, these are not problems for Ruixue. The land is barren and she has ways to make it fertile. Corn

Changchong, although there are no ready-made pesticides here, she is a graduate student at the Agricultural University after all. She has a lot of home-made methods, and she knows the main ingredients of pesticides. As long as the raw materials can be found, it will only be a matter of time before she can prepare them.

"Xuejian, under normal circumstances, besides eating it as a family, can the food grown in your crop fields be sold for money? In other words, how much money can you make in a year if you just rely on the crop fields?"

"Our family has never made money from the crops." Xuejian shook his head, "But I heard my mother mention it. In previous years, it was amazing that our village could make a small fortune from the crops. Our main income was

During the slack period, men go to work in the city to earn money. In two years, I will be able to work in the city to help my mother earn money to support the family."

"You don't have to go to the city to work to support your family. Didn't sister say that if you have sister's share, you will have your share." Ruixue smiled and patted Xuejian on the shoulder, then asked her own question, "This crop land is all

It’s corn, why didn’t I see anything else? It seems I didn’t see any land for growing vegetables.”

"The vegetable growing field is by the river. We only have Chinese cabbage here and no other vegetables."

"Why?"

"Because other vegetables either cannot grow or are difficult to grow, only Chinese cabbage is the best to grow, so we only grow Chinese cabbage here. Other vegetables here are more expensive than meat, and ordinary people cannot eat them at home.

Only the rich men in the city can afford it." Xuejian said, "Sister, do you want to go and have a look?"

"Okay." Anyway, nothing happened, just take a look.

After almost walking around the village, Ruixue got to know more about the situation in Jinxiu Village. From Xuejian's words, she learned that in addition to growing Chinese cabbage, Ruixue also went to the mountains to dig wild vegetables in autumn.

After being made into pickles, they are one of the main sources of food in winter. Wang Xuejian is still a child after all. When Ruixue pointed to a table of toys and told him that they were all given to him by her, the little innocent child immediately

Being bribed by Ruixue strengthened her position as sister Ruixue, so when Li Jinhua and Qiao Zi packed up the things Wang Xuejian brought back, they entered the house and saw the two children already playing together happily.
