The hot wife of the champion

Chapter 81: Being Despised (2)
Although soybeans are horse feed, they are better than grass roots!It turned out that it wasn't them who were stupid, but themselves!
And the whole village, regardless of men, women and children, all those who could go to the fields went to the fields, especially on the first day of harvesting, when they ate the delicious white rice prepared by Xie's family, everyone in the village was full of energy, raised their arms and worked hard, Work hard, the soybean harvest is bumper!
"Wen Bao, if you don't want to study, you can also harvest soybeans with the villagers. Many boys like you in the village have gone to the fields to help harvest beans!"

Xie Wenjing saw that Wen Bao was in a daze for a long time, so she interrupted Wen Bao's daze.

"There are many girls who are the same age as you in the village. Why didn't you go?" Xie Wenbao replied to Xie Wenjing.

Xie Wenjing was speechless, her brother was right, she could indeed work in the fields, but she never thought about this at all, all she thought about was how to hire farmers.

It seems that I am still the eldest daughter of the aristocratic family in my bones, and I can't bear the hardship of working in the fields!

"That's fine. I'll go down to see them harvesting soybeans. Do you want to go with me? We just happen to give them afternoon snacks at this time?"

Xie Wenjing felt that the people in the village were honest and simple. Although they had rice for them, they had a hard life these days, so she took this opportunity to let them eat well.

The whole village is served with rice porridge and two steamed buns every morning, two bowls of rice at noon, and two bowls of rice at night. However, they do physical work, and the afternoon is long, so it is better to add one or two steamed buns.

"I don't want to go, I don't want to be a farmer! You want to be a village woman and do it yourself! I want to study, and I want to be the number one scholar!"

Xie Wenbao deliberately angered this elder sister, why did she like to stare at her and restrain herself?Parents are not as cruel as she is!snort!
Ambitious!brat!If you really think so, I'm not in a hurry!

Okay, as long as you are willing to study and make progress, I will admit it even if I am a village woman!

"Qin Yu, accompany the young master to study well, and urge him not to be lazy, he will be the number one scholar in the future!"

Xie Wenjing also stimulated her brother with what she said.

Qin Yu stared blankly at the eldest lady, and then at the young master, feeling a little silly.Will the young master really be the champion?
After Xie Wenjing had seen her younger brother, she brought Mama Du, Zhihua, Mei Lan, Nanny Wu, and Du Yue, and together they brought the freshly steamed white flour steamed buns.And Uncle Li carried a load of cold boiled water ahead, and walked towards the villagers who were taking turns harvesting soybeans next door.

"Village Chief Li, Uncle Li, Uncle Li, you all rest for a while, and work after you finish your snacks!"

Xie Wenjing yelled at these simple villagers with a smile.

I have never experienced such happiness in my previous life, and I feel the pride of being convinced from the bottom of my heart.In the eyes they looked at themselves, there was no greed, no calculation, only conviction.

"Wow! Dad, mother, it's a big white steamed bun!" The children from Uncle Li's house next door were very happy. This white and fat big steamed bun really makes people drool!
"Grandpa, I saw it too! It's big steamed buns! Grandpa, let's eat steamed buns!" Uncle Li's granddaughter also shouted happily.

The children in the village didn't want to be told by adults, they dropped the beans they were picking, and ran together, causing the villagers to smile shyly towards Xie Wenjing.

"Don't run, you fell!" Xie Wenjing heard the voices of the adults, showing joy, and her heart couldn't help but follow.

The villagers in the village are divided into three parts, young girls, old women, all picking soybeans in the village.The soybeans at this time are still on the bean stalk.

The strong and strong men in the village are responsible for picking and transporting the bundled bean stalks in the field.

Another part of the villagers bent over and pulled the soybean roots together to tie them up.Originally, the villagers planned to use a sickle to cut off the bean stalks. Then someone said, would cutting off the soybean roots in this way affect the planting of rice?

To be on the safe side, the villagers decided that it would be better to uproot them.It's more work, but worth it.

The soybeans in the village have all been harvested. Many villagers are very moved. In this difficult day, they are really satisfied to have soybeans as food.

Xie Wenjing harvested a full [-] catties of soybeans from [-] acres of soybeans.

Other villagers also obtained a lot of soybeans, almost [-] catties per mu, which no one in the villagers expected.

After the villagers had soybeans, they were able to save grain.

The next step is to plow the land with cattle, plant seedlings, and prepare to plant rice for the second half of the year.

Fortunately, the villagers in the Li Clan Temple have saved some of the grain, and Xie Wenjing and Fajing Temple exchanged some of the grain for soybeans to make up for the grain in the village.

This made the villagers of the Li Family Ancestral Hall even more convinced Xie Wenjing, the eldest lady of the Xie family.

At this time, Xie Wenjing's grandfather also hired villagers to plant rice in the paddy field of Fajing Temple for the second half of the year.

Villagers in several villages around Fajing Temple can get employment from Xie Wenjing's family and Du's family, which can be regarded as a little way of life, which is better than farmers in other places.

As for the entire Jiangnan area, because the government government distributed too much grain, there was a lack of grain when it was actually cultivated, and because many tenants did not dare to rent more land, they would rather wander and work than rent. field.

As a result, more arable land in the south of the Yangtze River was abandoned.

"Your Majesty, in such a rich place in the south of the Yangtze River, because of an order from the crown prince, the grain reserves in the government office have been exhausted, and they have fallen into such a situation. So many fertile fields have been abandoned, and the soldiers in front cannot feed themselves. This is all due to the crown prince's mishandling. Caused!"

General Sima Yi, 40 years old, although he did not participate in the battle for the heir apparent, he still has a heart for the suffering of the soldiers in front.

At that time, the snow disaster in the south of the Yangtze River was severe, and it was not unheard of more than ten years ago. But at that time, the current emperor sent by the former emperor to help the disaster was to encourage them to be self-reliant, to raise money from wealthy businessmen, and to open warehouses symbolically. Food, to appease the hearts of the people, although not enough, caused nearly [-] people starved to death in the south of the Yangtze River, but it did not affect the livelihood of the next year, nor did it affect the food and salaries of the soldiers who were resisting the enemy.

This time, however, the Jiangnan region had no crops, but the prince who went to relieve the disaster ordered the local governments to open up all the stored grains. As a result, when it was time for farming, there was no official grain distribution.If this continues, the number of people in Jiangnan who starved to death this year may be tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands!

Isn't this the prince's dereliction of duty?And it is a serious dereliction of duty!
"Veteran disagrees with General Sima's views! The people in the south of the Yangtze River, when a catastrophe strikes, can only place their hope on the imperial court. If the imperial court ignores it, the people's hearts will be unstable, and if the people's hearts are unstable, troubles will easily occur. Although the prince knows what to do However, we have to do it. Only by winning the hearts of the people can we win the world. My Great Zhou Dynasty is the world that wins the hearts of the people. Although the people in Jiangnan have abandoned a lot of fields at this time, the people in Jiangnan all respect our royal family of Great Zhou. Keep it in mind. The reason why the prince did this is because he wants all the people of the Great Zhou to trust and be loyal to the Great Zhou Dynasty. Besides, the prince is not letting go of this matter anymore, but after distributing all the grain, actively Contact various places to find alternative grains, so that the people in the south of the Yangtze River can tide over the difficulties."
