Chapter 629 Persistent Drought

There was no joy on the faces of the people in the village, all of them were frowning, and looked up at the sky from time to time, hoping that the clear sky and scorching sun would be covered with dark clouds in an instant, and there would be a heavy rain.

Imagination is beautiful, but it is only imagination after all.

The weather doesn't look like it's going to rain at all, the sun is shining brightly every day, and there are no clouds in the sky.

Going out and turning around, I feel like I'm going to be roasted dry.

The pond has indeed been dug, but there is no way to plant lotus roots.

Because the water level in the river is also dropping continuously, diverting water to raise fish and flowers at this time, it is estimated that they will be drowned by the spittle of the village.

So it can only be postponed until next year.

Although the sun is scorching and the ground is as hard as a rock, people still cannot sit idle.

If it is idle, there will really be no harvest in the second half of the year.

Every household wore straw hats and the most convenient bunts, and went down to the ground with hoes and shovels in their hands.

Always dig out the stubble in the ground first, then turn the soil over a little and plant the seeds.

Even if you pick water to irrigate the land, you can't let the land go to waste.

Ye Damao and Jin Jiu brought Ye Ping'an too busy all day long to go home. With so much land in their house, it was more troublesome to tidy up than other houses.

Even if there is no shortage of money, you can't really let it go.

It took nearly ten days of hard work to tidy up the field, and it was time to plant seeds. Ye Qingqing gave a suggestion.

In her previous life, she did not hear that there would be a drought later, but looking at the current situation, it is obvious that it will not be relieved in a short while.

In this kind of weather, other species must not work, and some cold-resistant food must be planted.

Therefore, Ye Qingqing suggested that they simply grow corn and sweet potatoes.

Both of these are extremely cold-resistant, and they receive more goods than other varieties, making it easier to fill up.

Ye Damao agreed after thinking about it after hearing the words. Anyway, their family still has a lot of food, so they are not afraid to eat it for another two or three years.

But listening to my daughter's planting sweet potatoes and corn may also come in handy.

Seeing Ye Damao taking people to work in the field again, Ye Qingqing couldn't tell what it was like in her heart.

Looking at Jin Xueqing who was sitting on the kang, looking around, Ye Qingqing's mood became more complicated.

If it was just doubts before, then after these few months, Ye Qingqing has already confirmed that the heavy rain was definitely caused by Jin Xueqing.

Otherwise, how can I explain that the rain came so suddenly and left so suddenly.

Since then, not a single drop of rain has fallen, and the sun hangs high in the sky, wishing to roast everyone to their flesh.

But even knowing this, Ye Qingqing didn't want her daughter to do anything.

This was her daughter, and she could not risk her.

Fortunately, everyone is just living a more difficult life now, not that they can't live anymore.

Let's talk later.

Jin Xueqing couldn't feel her mother's entanglement at all. Since she was able to sit firmly by herself, her favorite thing was to sit on the kang and look at the room.

With those eyes and that expression, it was as if he was looking at his country with pride.

Especially, when Jin Xueqing found out that there was a fluffy Liubao at home, her expression was so pleasantly surprised.

When Jin Xueqing was young, Ye Qingqing didn't let Liubao play with Jin Xueqing.

I'm afraid that Jin Xueqing doesn't know the severity of her hands, and if she grabs Liubao urgently, Liubao will give her a paw.
