After a busy day, Su Cheng went to bed and slept until dawn.
At three o'clock in the morning, the sun shone in from outside the window and fell on Su Cheng's body.
As soon as Su Cheng opened his eyes, he saw the dazzling sunlight and couldn't help but stretched out his hand to block it.
But as soon as he raised his hand, his elbow touched Shen Youwei beside him.
Shen Youwei, who was sleeping soundly, turned her body around due to conditioned reflex, holding Su Cheng's hand with both hands and trying to twist it in the opposite direction.
"Madam...it's me!" Su Cheng shouted quickly.
Only then did the sleepy Shen Youwei react.
Realizing that she was actually holding Su Cheng's arm and about to twist it behind her, a blush appeared on her face.
But then, Shen Youwei threw Su Cheng's hand away and pretended to be vicious: "Humph, who told you to move!"
Su Cheng is like a man who wants to cry but has no tears.
I obviously just wanted to block the sun.
However, this reminded him not to provoke his wife, otherwise he might be injured by conditioned reflexes if he was not careful.
"I understand. From now on, I will try not to touch you, madam, when I sleep."
Su Cheng stood up, shook his shoulders and said, "It's getting late. I'll wash up first and go to the fields to take a look later."
"Going to the fields? Aren't you going to Buzhuang today?" Shen Youwei was a little surprised.
It stands to reason that the sales volume of Xia Customer Service is so good now, and he will have to work overtime in the next few days to complete the orders. Su Cheng should go to Buzhuang to keep an eye on it.
"No, Shen Xiangyang and Shen Xiangxing will keep an eye on it. I have to go see the growth of the hybrid rice."
Su Cheng put on his clothes and said with a serious face: "The weather is not quite right. If it continues like this, I suspect there will be a drought this year."
"Once a drought occurs, if this food cannot be saved, we will all go hungry."
He has no ability to care about the life and death of others, he just wants to let himself survive.
He, Su Cheng, is not a saint, and he doesn't have the heart to meddle in too many other things. The most important thing is to ensure his own safety first.
Shen Youwei raised her eyebrows, and a solemn look flashed in her eyes.
It was okay that Su Cheng didn't talk about it. When she mentioned the drought, she thought that it had not rained for two months.
Moreover, the weather has been getting hotter and hotter these days. It is only mid-May and the weather is already similar to July.
If this continues, there is a high possibility of drought!
"It's true, it seems like it hasn't rained a single time since March!"
Shen Youwei quickly said: "Well, I will go out with you today to take a look."
This is no small matter. If there is a drought, the Shen family will definitely not be able to escape.
"Then I'll go outside and wash up first. You can change your clothes and meet me at the door of the house."
After Su Cheng finished speaking, he walked out and closed the door behind him.
Shen Youwei looked at Su Cheng's fleeing look and couldn't help but pout.
Are you so terrible?
She wanted to go home, but she felt a little happy when she thought that Su Cheng was in such a hurry to leave just so that she could change her clothes.
There is such a considerate husband.
very nice!
With a little sweetness, Shen Youwei immediately changed into clothes and then went out to wash up.
After doing this, she came to the door of Shen's mansion.
At this moment, a carriage was ready at the door of Shen's mansion, and Chunhua Qiuyue was also carrying some desserts to the carriage.
However, Su Cheng was nowhere to be seen.
"Where has my uncle gone?"
Shen Youwei asked pretending to be nonchalant.
Of course Chunhua and Qiuyue knew their young lady's character, and being able to take the initiative to ask about it already showed that the young lady cared about their uncle.
"My uncle went to find the two young masters from the second room and asked them to go to Buzhuang to watch today and come over soon." Chunhua explained with a smile.
As she said this, she picked up a plate of snacks and said, "Well, my uncle specially told me to eat this on the way out of the city."
"Miss, do you think my uncle is very considerate and worried that you will be hungry if you don't have breakfast?"
These words made Shen Youwei feel happy.
Of course, Su Cheng is worried that this lady will be hungry if she doesn’t have breakfast!
I really didn’t expect that this guy Su Cheng is quite attentive!
However, on the surface, Shen Youwei still pretended not to care: "What are you talking about? Didn't he eat it himself? This is for him, right?"
While talking, Su Cheng had already come out of the yard beyond the second room.
When the guard at the door saw Su Cheng, he quickly bowed and saluted: "I've met my uncle!"
After what happened in the Shen family during this period, Su Cheng's status in the Shen family has undergone earth-shaking changes.
In the past, when entering and leaving Shen's mansion, these guards were not even willing to look at him.
Of course, Su Cheng didn't care about this, nodded to them and walked to the carriage.
"Madam, get in the car. Let's go see the Shen family's fields first, and then go see other fields in the county."
"Um."
Shen Youwei didn't say much this time. She followed Su Cheng's outstretched hand and jumped directly onto the carriage.
Su Cheng shook his head and then got on the carriage, followed closely by Chunhua and Qiuyue.
The car is large enough to accommodate four people, and they even had breakfast in the car.
After breakfast, the carriage stopped in a large field outside the city.
As soon as Su Cheng got out of the car, a tenant farmer recognized him.
"Uncle, it's my uncle who is here!"
"Lady behind you!"
"My uncle came with the young lady!"
The tenant farmers immediately surrounded him and saluted him one after another.
The Shen family is their master family, so of course they need to have a good relationship.
Su Cheng looked at the people in front of him with a smile on his face: "You don't have to be polite, I'm here today to see how the crops are growing."
As soon as he finished speaking, an older man wearing a bamboo hat immediately took over: "Uncle, the hybrid rice you made is really amazing. It grows much better than previous years' crops!"
"but……"
"But what?"
"Uncle, there is something you don't want to hear. Based on my many years of experience, the weather this year is a bit abnormal, and a drought may occur."
The old tenant farmer looked sad: "Although the crops are growing well now, once a drought occurs, they will all die immediately!"
"If we hadn't made preparations early, I'm afraid this year would be...sigh..."
After all, he is a tenant farmer who has been farming for many years and is much more sensitive to weather than the average person.
Just because people speak softly, no one believes what the tenant farmers say, and even if they say it, no one will care.
However, Su Cheng was different. He believed in the old tenant farmers and his own judgment.
Looking at the helpless old tenant farmer, Su Cheng comforted him: "Don't worry, I'm here just to confirm this."
"It has not rained for two months this year, and you are also an experienced old tenant farmer. I trust your judgment."
Su Cheng's face suddenly brightened: "In order to prevent drought, I decided to dig more channels so that the water from Liuhe River can flow directly."
"In addition, after digging the channel, immediately dig some reservoirs around the field to prepare in advance."
"Don't worry, you will be paid for digging channels. In addition, if you have family members who want to participate, my Shen family will also pay the wages."
Through many observations and the judgment of many people, Su Cheng is 90% sure that a drought will occur this year, and he must prepare in advance.
He even wanted to hire more people to work in order to dig channels and reservoirs in advance.
Shen Youwei on the side saw Su Cheng looking so serious for the first time.
At this moment, Su Cheng was like a high emperor, giving orders to his ministers below.
At this moment, Su Cheng had an irresistible momentum!
At this moment, Shen Youwei suddenly felt as if she was addicted to Su Cheng's state.
To this end, Shen Youwei added: "Yes, my Shen family pays for the wages!"
Chunhua Qiuyue on the side couldn't help covering her mouth and snickering when she heard this.
My young lady was worried that her uncle's words would not be a deterrent, so she added this sentence specifically.
It seemed that the young lady really fell in love with her uncle.
I need to talk to the master about this when I get back. Maybe a young master from the Shen family will show up soon!
