Chapter 17 Harvest
Not long after Yin Zhao was born, the harvest season of wheat came.

Most of Ziyang County grows winter wheat. Harvesting begins one after another around June. After harvesting the wheat, it is necessary to plant corn non-stop, followed by rice harvesting, and then continue to plant winter wheat. Potato crops that were introduced in the previous dynasty.

As the season of harvesting wheat was approaching, Mrs. Jiang often went to the fields to look around. Seeing the ears of wheat getting fuller little by little, she felt a sense of accomplishment.

Looking at Mrs. Jiang, she found something was wrong.

On land with similar fertility, the time of sowing and fertilization are all the same, but the ears of wheat in my own field are almost twice as large as those in the other fields.Not only that, but as soon as the ears of wheat were pushed out with their hands, they knew that they were full and none of them were empty.

When the patriarch passed by the old Jiang's field, he always asked if the old Jiang's family bought new seeds from other places this year. Why is the same land, the old Jiang's looks a lot better.

"I don't know what's going on." Mrs. Jiang waved her hand, but she already had a guess in her heart. It must be because of Yubao that her crops grew so well.

It's just that she won't say anything to anyone.

When the grain was harvested, the grains were threshed, and the superior said that the yield of wheat in the field in previous years was no more than two and a half stones per mu, but this year it was six stones, and the output of two acres of land alone was enough to feed the Jiang family for a year up.

Many people in the village heard about the Jiang family's wheat production, and they exchanged grain for seeds.

In previous years, there were many such things, three buckets of grain for one bucket of grain.This year, everyone knew the real output of Lao Jiang's family, and consciously increased the proportion of seeds replaced.

They are all from fellow villagers, and the Jiangjia Village is famous for its harmony. The old lady Jiang in his own village has basically been replaced, and this is only the output of an acre of land.The amount of ordinary wheat that the villagers exchanged for seeds was enough to feed the Jiang family for a year.

In addition, some wheat seeds were given to the natal families of several daughter-in-laws, and the rest were sold to the grain merchants who came to collect the grain according to the highest quality grain.

A bucket of grain was 150 renminbi, and the remaining [-] mu of wheat was sold for [-] taels of silver.

This was the first time for the Jiang family to touch genuine bank notes, and it directly brought the Jiang family's savings to a new high.

In exchange for the previous arrears, there is still 91 taels of silver left. Mrs. Jiang has been groping around the house for a long time but has not figured out where to hide the silver.

She thought for a moment, and then asked Jiang Yuan, "Yubao, can you help grandma hide the money?"

Jiang Yu'an was a little dazed, she was so nice, why did she suddenly ask her to hide money?

But looking into old lady Jiang's eyes, Jiang Yu'an still nodded, and then put his hands on the silver and bank notes that old lady Jiang brought over. The next second, the silver and bank notes in old lady Jiang's hand disappeared.

Jiang Yu'an checked the things in the space, and there were hundreds of taels of silver notes and gold and silver ingots that she signed out every now and then, and the silver and silver notes brought by Mrs. Jiang were put on another shelf by her.

Mrs. Jiang was a little pleasantly surprised. She touched Jiang Yu'an's head with a smile, and felt much more at ease.

She only kept some scraps of money by her side, and handed over the rest to Jiang Yuan for Jiang Yuan to keep.

Now that the Jiang family has money, they don't have to worry about debts. Everyone's mood has improved a lot. Thinking that the children in the family have not eaten well in the past two years, and they are still a little thin, they decided to go home in the future. Everyone should eat an egg every day, especially children.

Jiang Yu'an is almost ten months old now, and she can also eat some other foods in small amounts. Mrs. Jiang occasionally makes her some egg custard to eat, and gives her a few mouthfuls to satisfy her cravings.

Summer and autumn are the feast of wild fruits. Many wild fruits in the mountains ripen at this time. The children in the family will run all over the mountains and plains to pick wild fruits to eat after finishing homework or school.

Jiang Yu'an could see many wild fruits every day, yes, they were all picked for her by her dear brothers.

Although the brothers already knew that Jiang Yu'an couldn't eat these things, they firmly believed that if their sister couldn't eat them, they would let her take a look to satisfy her hunger. They didn't know that their sister became more and more hungry.

When Jiang Jiuren dangled in front of Jiang Yuan again with a bunch of red unknown berries, Jiang Yuan finally couldn't help it.

The fruit was so red that it was almost purple, exuding a strong sweet smell, but Jiang Jiuren kept describing how delicious the fruit was in front of Jiang Yu'an.

Jiang Yu'an said that she was autistic.

Why let her see so many delicious food every day, just smelling and looking at it is not enough, someone will "intimately" tell her what it tastes like!

After seeing An Shuhui coming in, Jiang Yu'an seemed to see a savior, his eyes were bubbling.

Ever since, Jiang Yuan uttered the first word in her life: "Mother!"

The whole room fell silent, An Shuhui turned her head to look at Jiang Yuan in surprise, "Yubao, did you call your mother just now?"

Looking at her expectant and excited eyes, Jiang Yuan called out a few more times, "Mother, mother."

"Hey." An Shuhui's joy almost overflowed, picked up Jiang Yuan and left the room, "Mother, sister-in-law and sister-in-law, Yubao can talk now, she called me just now!"

Everyone in the Jiang family soon knew that Jiang Yuan had spoken, and there was unprecedented excitement around Jiang Yuan.

Almost everyone who saw her would come forward to teach her to call someone, especially her brothers, who gathered around Jiang Yuan's crib every day when they had nothing to do, waiting for her to call her brother.

"Yubao, I'm Brother Nine, follow me, 'Brother Nine'."

Jiang Jiuren was still a little short.He tried his best to stand on tiptoe to see Jiang Yuan in the cradle, but this did not prevent him from playing with his sister for a while in front of her cradle every day.

As soon as he finished speaking, several other elder brothers followed suit, quarreling over who the younger sister's first elder brother would be.

When Jiang Yuan opened her eyes, she could see pairs of eager eyes. She tentatively asked, "Yes?"

After figuring out his own pronunciation, Jiang Yu'an wished he could find a tunnel to get in.

It seems that her body is still not fully developed, so she can't speak clearly.

After hearing Jiang Yuan's non-standard "brother", the boys all felt that the younger sister must be calling them, and in the following time, they brought all kinds of things that they thought were good to Jiang Yuan, just for Jiang Yuan Can call "Brother X".

When Jiang Yuan called out other elders one after another, and she was able to say some simple words such as "hungry, sleepy", she was almost one year old, and the Jiang family began to prepare for Jiang Yuan to catch Zhou in full swing. something.
