After saving the pig god, I counterattacked and became the richest man in the village

Chapter 251 251 Digging Potatoes

After dinner, the family went back to their respective rooms to sleep.

He Ju lay on the bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.

Zhao Sancheng glanced at Yao'er who was sleeping soundly, and asked He Ju, "What's wrong?"

He Ju sighed.

"Oh, this is a falling out with their family."

Zhao Sancheng was still a little angry when he mentioned Wang Hai's family.

"If you fall out, you will fall out. They will not talk about friendship first."

He Ju's eyes wandered to Yao'er.

"I don't care about their family, I'm just afraid of what bad things they will do in the future."

Zhao Sancheng covered He Ju with a quilt.

"Don't be afraid, what are you doing badly? It's not enough, they don't have the guts."

He Ju: "It's better to..."

If any of them dared to do anything to the children in the family, she would have to fight those people desperately.

At the beginning, she was forced by these people's various gossips to threaten people by hanging herself, but now that she has finally survived, she wants to come again?Hmph, dreaming, she is not the pissed daughter-in-law before.

On the second day, Zhao Yuanle woke up with the sound of a rooster crowing.

As usual, she had breakfast and went to graze the pigs, told stories to the children over there, and then brought back some pigweed.

At noon, Zhao Yuanle was full of energy and did not sleep to prepare courseware for Yao'er.

He Ju found her with a sling on his back and a hoe.

"Lele, after finishing this, go out with me."

Zhao Yuanle put down the pen in his hand: "Why are you going?"

He Ju: "Go dig potatoes. I want to dig up a piece of soil. I'm afraid I won't be able to carry them back. Come with me."

Zhao Yuanle nodded.

"immediately."

She speeded up the preparation of courseware.

When she finished preparing, He Ju was already waiting for her with an extra hoe.

Zhao Yuanle picked up the hoe, and turned around to go back to get the sling.

He Ju stopped her and gave her a hemp bag.

"Use this, pretend more, and you can memorize it easily."

Zhao Yuanle picked up the bag with a smile, picked up the hoe, and went out with He Ju.

Passing by the cherry tree at the entrance of the village, a few women here are doing things and chatting as usual.

After seeing Zhao Yuanle this time, they all shut up without saying hello, asking too many questions, let alone gossiping.

Zhao Yuanle only felt that his ears were clear.

He Ju and Zhao Yuanle walked together, and after passing here, they looked back to make sure that the women did not continue to say anything.

She was a little puzzled.

"They didn't say anything this time."

Zhao Yuanle: "I went out to herd pigs this morning, and I didn't see anyone making sarcastic remarks. Hmph, I must have been scared."

These people are really hard-nosed, and they know how to be honest after being scared once.

He Ju: "It's okay, I feel upset when I hear them talking. It seems that Wang Hai's family didn't call anyone. I thought they were fierce."

Zhao Yuanle sneered.

"It is estimated that after returning home, Wang Hai and his wife will have a fight first."

He Ju also smiled, she thought it was very possible.

Zhao Yuanle thought of Wang Lili's bad breath, Wang Hainiang's musty smell, Wang Hai's and his wife's dirty clothes, and the old stains on their necks when they met Wang Hai's family yesterday, and she couldn't help but get goosebumps.

Zhao Yuanle was puzzled.

"Sanniang, it's getting warmer now, don't the whole family still take a bath?"

He Ju pursed her mouth: "They are reluctant to part with firewood, and want to wait until the weather is hotter and wash in the sun.

In fact, to put it bluntly, I am lazy. When cooking, put a pot of water in the back and it will be hot?
They may find it bothersome to fetch water, and it takes a lot of water to wash their feet, so they often don't wash. "

Zhao Yuanle: "It's really not clean and there is nothing wrong with it."

He Ju: "Forget it, I'd rather be clean."

The two of them talked and went to their own field.

He Ju took Zhao Yuanle in, and showed Zhao Yuanle a demonstration with a hoe.

"When you see this, you need to dig lightly with the hoe first. When you see the roots, dig deeper, and the yams will be turned out in one go."

Zhao Yuanle followed He Ju's example, aimed at a nest, and went down with two hoes, and really dug out a lot of yams.

These yams are small, mostly the size of egg yolks, and the largest ones are no bigger than eggs.

Zhao Yuanle: "Is anyone planting big yams?"

He Ju shook his head and said, "I haven't heard of any big yams, but this kind of yams are all planted, just this size."

She picked up the yams she had just dug, shook off the soil on them, and threw them into the sling.

"We dug a little later, and it was a little bigger than in previous years.

In fact, it was possible to dig it last month, but I haven’t come to dig it all the time. Now I have to plant other vegetables, so I have to dig this. "

Zhao Yuanle: "What kind of vegetables should be planted in this soil?"

He Ju: "Plant more cabbage this year, Xi'er loves it."

Zhao Yuanle remembered the wheat from before, and asked again: "When will the wheat be harvested?"

He Ju looked up at the sun.

"Let's heat it up for another two days, and wait for the wheat to turn yellow."

Zhao Yuanle went down with two hoes again, and dug out a lot of potatoes.

He Ju picked it up and disposed of the soil by the way.

Seeing the yams Zhao Yuanle dug, she couldn't help sighing.

"Strength is good. Sometimes when I dig shallow, I have to dig up potatoes. You can dig them out with a hoe."

Zhao Yuanle chuckled.

She is slightly swollen.

"Call me when you're cutting the wheat, I'm sure I'll cut it well too!"

He Ju nodded with a smile.

"Okay, we'll keep all the wheat this year for ourselves."

Zhao Yuanle: "Where's the millet?"

He Ju: "This year, we will keep enough millet for our family, and we will sell the excess."

The two chatted about household matters, Zhao Yuanle dug quickly, and He Ju simply followed behind and picked it up.

In the end, the two dug up the yams in this piece of soil at twice the speed than usual.

He Ju was exhausted from picking up by the side.

She looked at Zhao Yuanle, saw that Zhao Yuanle was not panting, and even picked it up after sitting there.

she couldn't help asking.

"Aren't you tired?"

Zhao Yuanle shook his head: "Not tired, and effortless."

For her, wielding a hoe is like playing with a mobile phone for ordinary people, and it doesn't consume any energy at all.

He Ju was a little envious.

"The young man is in good health."

When she was young, although her strength was not so strong, she was not afraid of being tired when working.

In the end, the linen bag was filled with a bag, and He Ju's back was half filled, and the two of them went home together with the hoe on their shoulders.

Zhao Yuanle carried the linen bag on his back, thinking that it was a good thing, and it would be very convenient to use it to hold pigweed in the future.

When passing by the river, He Ju called Zhao Yuanle to stop.

"Let's wash in the river first, and then go back after washing."

Zhao Yuanle also went down the river together, took off his shoes and socks, rolled up his trousers and sleeves, and washed with He Ju.

The water in the river is cold and clear.

He Ju put the yams in the back sling, stepped on them with his feet, then shook them up and down in the water a few times with his hands, and finally rinsed them in the running water, which was considered finished.

The muddy water used to wash the yams was quickly washed away, and clean water came again.

Zhao Yuanle read it once, wrote down the process in his mind, and after He Ju washed his back, he proposed to give it a try.
