Chapter 43 How did you grow corn?

In Kangqiao Village Primary School, the students have gone home for vacation these days, and Wu Xingyun is the only one inside and outside the campus.

Without the parents of the students coming, Wu Xingyun didn't come out of the campus very often. It was difficult for Wu Xingyun to know what was going on in Kangqiao Village.

Even in the village, there was a lot of rumors about Han Ruowei and the Lu family, as well as the matter of the second-hand son. Wu Xingyun only heard some discussions when he went out of the school.

"Teacher Ruowei fought with members of the Lu family, and even cut Lu Shaojie's arm. How is this possible?"

Wu Xingyun touched his chin and thought about it, but he couldn't figure out that Han Ruowei would do such a thing.

Suddenly Wu Xingyun stood up and hurriedly walked outside to the school gate, but he still couldn't get out and returned to the office.

"It's been two days. I just went to see Teacher Ruowei now. It's somewhat inappropriate. Let's talk about it when I meet her when I have a chance!"

"Ugh!"

Wu Xingyun let out a long sigh, shook his head, and started writing his lesson plan for next semester.

At the north end of the village, after Han Ruowei took the wheat back home, he has been busy threshing the wheat, and the field has never cared about it.

"Ruowei, you're still busy threshing, and you don't want to tidy up the field anymore?"

"What are you going to clean up? Just plant some corn and there's nothing to clean up. When the wheat is all in the warehouse, just plant some corn."

Aunt Liu, who was passing by, had seen Han Ruowei beating the wheat for the past two days, fearing that she might miss the sowing of the summer grain.

"Don't just talk about it, this is already awn seeds, and if you miss the solar terms and the summer grain, it will not be easy to survive.

And the Northland, isn't it not suitable for growing corn?Why do you still grow corn?How about planting some sorghum, so that the harvest is guaranteed. "

"Ah? I've already bought all my corn seeds, which are new seeds cultivated by the seed station. But I see that there is nothing wrong with growing corn in this field. Why do we have to grow sorghum?"

Han Ruowei also watered the field once, but he didn't find out what kind of saline-alkali land the North Land is used to grow corn, and it should have a higher yield than sorghum.

"This sorghum has been planted for so many years, and it can produce about 200 catties per mu of land every year. Look at the corn that Lao Chen's family planted in the past few years, and it was more than [-] catties.

There is also Wu Laoer's family, which grows corn every year, and if it is not two hundred catties a year, it is all good seeds picked out by him, otherwise how can he be called Wu Laoer. "

Only now did Han Ruowei understand that the reason why Beidi didn't get corn was not just a problem with this field.

"Aunt Liu, you can't keep these corn seeds for yourself. Mr. Wu uses his own corn to save seeds every year. No wonder his yield is not high. The seeds I bought at the seed station are different."

"What's the difference? They're all corn seeds, and they all grow the same. The seed stations are all deceiving people. Look at the corn seeds, how many times more expensive than corn, if you buy them Aren’t the corn seeds from China cheap?”

"One catty is two eighths."

Seeing that Mrs. Liu was so determined, Han Ruowei couldn't explain why she couldn't keep her own corn. Even if she explained, she still couldn't explain it, but Nuonuo replied.

"Look, Ruowei, you are easy to be fooled, eight cents a catty, which is more than the price of eggs, even if you plant a lot of chickens, they will grow into big chickens in half a year. "

"Ha ha……"

Han Ruowei smiled awkwardly. Facing Aunt Liu's reasoning, she really didn't know how to answer.

"Ugh!"

Aunt Liu asked Han Ruowei for a long time before walking to her own field, and Han Ruowei finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Looking at the small pile of wheat with ears in front of the door, Han Ruowei took a bundle of wheat and started beating again, reckoning that today, all the wheat would be finished and put into the warehouse.

Early the next morning, the sky was just slightly bright, and there was still a layer of steaming water vapor everywhere in the field.

Han Ruowei was carrying a shovel and a small bag on her shoulder, which contained the corn seeds she bought.

Behind her, Xiaoying was also holding a shovel and a little blue, and followed Han Ruowei closely.

"Sha~"

Han Ruowei stepped on the shovel, picked up a piece of soil, and took out two corn seeds from the small bag he was carrying, and threw them in.

Pull out the shovel again, and step on it lightly to prevent the soil on it from running away without covering, and let the newly germinated seeds dry.

"Ruowei, why are you planting corn in these two acres of your field? The yield of corn in Beidi is not high."

"Ms. Guo, how do you know what I hit is corn?"

Han Ruowei was also very curious. She never told Aunt Guo that she wanted to grow corn. Aunt Guo said it with such certainty, as if she knew it all along.

"Hehe... Auntie is so old and has been farming for decades. How can you not tell if you plant some sorghum and some corn? Why don't you plant some sorghum?"

"The harvest of sorghum is finished, only three to five hundred catties. The harvest of corn is much higher than that of sorghum. I am at the seed station. The seeds I bought are not kept by myself."

"Hey! You are just a stubborn person. The corn is not as good as you said. The harvest is so high. It is just like what you said. It is not all corn. You will know what it will be like when the autumn harvest comes.

Now that you have planted corn, you still need to manage it well. Don’t let it go if you feel that the harvest is low. No matter how low the harvest is, it is still a harvest. In winter, you must rely on these autumn grains. "

Han Ruowei nodded without explaining, and continued to plant his own corn. In the winter in this rural area, he must rely on autumn grain to survive.

"Sister-in-law Ruowei, you're busy alone! Look at this kind of thing, you don't call me, wouldn't it be faster if more people help!"

After a few days, the bruises on Er Laizi's face were no longer visible, and only then did he start running towards Han Ruowei again.

"Secret, have you planted your own fields? It only takes me a while to plant these two acres of land, and I still need your help!"

"My two acres of sorghum have been planted a long time ago. You are not alone, sister-in-law, and you have Xiaoying with you. I'll come over to have a look.

Ruowei sister-in-law, where are your sorghum seeds? "

"I grow corn, so where do I get sorghum!"

Erlaizi was taken aback for a moment, thinking he had heard it wrong, and looked at Han Ruowei in disbelief.

"Sister-in-law Ruowei, do you grow corn?"

"if not?"

"The corn in the north doesn't have much yield. How can you just plant corn on you? I still have some sorghum seeds at home. I'll get them and you should plant sorghum instead!"

Erlai said that he was about to go home. Anyone who saw Han Ruowei planting corn had to say a few words, and Han Ruowei didn't bother to explain.

"You don't have to go home, you bastard. I'll plant sorghum this year. I'll plant corn this year. I'll know how the yield is in autumn."

"Sister-in-law Ruowei, how could you not listen..."

Erlaizi was nagging, talking non-stop, which annoyed Han Ruo a little, and really wanted to slap him to death with a shovel.

"Are you here to nag? Or to help? You don't want to see me plant corn, you can go home now!"

Han Ruowei scolded, the second-timer didn't dare to say anything, and honestly took the shovel, asked Han Ruowei for some seeds, and started planting.
