Running with the ball in the lean years, the evil mother-in-law and the whole family regretted it

Chapter 65 Not one, but two

In order to verify whether it was really possible, Bai Taotao bought a professional book on rice cultivation in the mall.

I didn’t expect that there was actually a record of regenerated rice in the book.

Regeneration rice needs to set aside six to eight inches of rice piles when harvesting the rice. After the rice harvest is completed, the rice fields are then filled with river water. The rice piles can quickly turn green. After the rice piles turn green, new tillers will grow. .

The new tillers will soon begin to ear and mature under the sunlight.

And this is regenerated rice.

Although the yield of the second crop is not as high as that of the first crop, it is still almost half the yield.

Calculating the time, it is now mid-September. After the rice harvest, the ratoon rice will not be harvested until the end of November or early December.

It's already winter at this time, and it's already the Chinese New Year as soon as December passes. There is no difference between the New Calendar and the Gregorian Calendar in the North, there is only one calendar.

From this point of view, it will definitely not be implemented this year.

Unless the planting of rice is pushed back one month or more from next year, otherwise regeneration rice will not be implemented.

In the south of the North, crops are planted very late, and there is still a gap between the sowing time in today's world.

People here start plowing the ground to raise seedlings from the end of March to early April, transplant the rice in May, and harvest in mid-September or early October.

The harvesting time will last for more than half a month, because at this time, agricultural tools can only be purely manual.

Peanuts are also sown in April and harvested from early to mid-September.

If the rice sowing time is pushed forward one month, it is completely possible to start plowing the ground to raise seedlings in late February and early March. By then, spring will have already warmed up.

But before that, she can experiment once on her own, and then report it if it is really feasible. Then she can try it in all suitable areas.

After overturning the implementation of regeneration rice this year, Baitaotao stopped caring about these matters and continued to be busy with his own affairs.

The workshop is still under construction, so she can reserve the workers first and prepare everything needed for the workshop, so that when the workshop is built, she can start work directly.

In the blink of an eye, it was early October, and Bai Taotao's food processing workshop was finally completed after a month. The main work was to clear the land and build the workshop at the same time, so it took a lot of time. Moreover, it was different from building the house where she lived. The foundation had to be dug. The foundation time also takes a lot of time.

The workshop started working directly the next day after completion.

Fortunately, with Aunt Tan here, Baitaotao doesn't have to worry about anything when the workshop starts. Now she just needs to wait for the birth.

According to time calculation, her due date of this pregnancy should be around mid-October.

So in order to facilitate delivery, Bai Taotao bought someone from the mall, an uncle in his thirties who knew martial arts. In addition to delivering goods, he is also responsible for patrolling the workshop, and he also lives there at night.

Nowadays, the delivery of Baitaotao is handed over to Uncle Yan, and the workshop is handed over to Grandma Tan.

Her own activity area is limited to the small yard in front of the house.

Because she was worried that she might give birth at any time, Mrs. Bai Zhou gave her many warnings not to go anywhere before giving birth.

Aunt Jin’s job now is to keep an eye on Baitaotao.

Bai Taotao was walking in front of the house after lunch that day, when she saw Chen Daya and her husband Li Gou walking towards her house from a distance.

After a while, the two of them walked up to Bai Taotao.

Chen Daya looked at Bai Taotao's belly and asked with concern: "It's almost time for you to give birth, right?"

Bai Taotao nodded: "It's almost just the past few days. How about it? Why do you think of coming here at this time, when all the work at home is done?" Chen Daya smiled sheepishly, and then said: "Yes, just now I finished the autumn harvest. Then... then I thought you were about to give birth, so... I came over to take a look."

Seeing Chen Daya's hesitant expression, Bai Taotao guessed that it was definitely not as simple as coming to see her, so he asked, "Yes?"

"Probably...probably not."

"What's wrong?" Bai Taotao asked.

"Last time I took the medicine you prescribed, my menstrual period came again. I don't know if it's because I was too tired during the autumn harvest. I always have back pain, and my menstrual period has not come yet."

What else could Bai Taotao not understand? She stretched out her hand and said, "Show me your hand."

Then Chen Daya stretched out her hand to Bai Taotao and asked her to take her pulse.

During the pulse check, Chen Daya kept staring at Bai Taotao nervously, hoping to observe some news from Bai Taotao's expression.

But during the whole process of taking the pulse, Bai Taotao remained expressionless.

Chen Daya couldn't tell from Bai Taotao's face how her body was doing until she finished checking her pulse.

Bai Taotao looked at Chen Daya, and then said meaningfully: "Maybe you won't have menstruation in the next few months."

"Ah!?" Chen Daya was so nervous that she almost shed tears.

Seeing that Chen Daya was about to cry, Aunt Jin, who came over with frosted peanuts and milk tea, smiled and said, "Mrs. Li, you are pregnant. Congratulations."

Listening to what Aunt Jin said, Chen Daya looked at Bai Taotao in disbelief.

Bai Taotao smiled and nodded.

Chen Daya still couldn't believe it and asked: "Really? Didn't you just say that I might not have menstruation in the next few months?"

Li Gou on the side was stunned for a while because of the excitement. Then he came to his senses and said with a smile: "Silly wife, you are pregnant, but you won't be here in the next few months."

After Li Gou said this, Chen Daya finally understood, "Yes, yes, look at how confused I am. Haha~~~, sir, I am finally pregnant, and we are finally going to have a child."

Bai Taotao smiled and said: "Not one, but two. It's either you don't have a baby, or you have two in your lifetime. It will save you trouble."

After hearing Bai Taotao's words, Chen Daya's face suddenly darkened.

Aunt Jin asked with concern: "What's wrong with Madam Li? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"

Before Chen Daya could speak, Li Gou guessed why his wife was unhappy, so he comforted him: "Daughter-in-law, don't worry, whether I have one child or two, I will work hard to make money for your mother in the future." Those of you who live a good life will never let you go hungry."

"But...but we have just paid off the money we owe, and suddenly we have two children. The situation at home..."

"It's okay. I'll rent a few more acres of land from the villagers next year, and I'll just grow more food then."

"No, I've already planted a lot of them at home, and I won't be able to grow more if I plant more."

"It's okay, I can do it. We finally had a child, but it's just a little hard work. It's okay, it's okay." When Li Gou comforted Chen Daya, he was actually comforting himself.

There is a big difference between my thoughts before I had children and now after I actually have children.

Now that he has a child, no matter how poor his family's conditions are, he will still work hard to keep his wife and children from going hungry.
