Chapter 18
After listening to Bai Susu's explanation, Zhou Ximing suddenly realized.

No wonder she herded cattle every day for a month, but she never took care of the field affairs, so it was because of this.

"Aren't you stupid?" Bai Susu frowned, her expression quite arrogant.

"I'm not stupid, okay?" Zhou Ximing rolled his eyes.

During this period of time, he has gotten used to Bai Susu's poisonous tongue.

"However, it's too early to be happy. We'll have to wait until February to see if we can sow the seeds." Bai Susu suddenly became serious.

"Isn't the soil the most important thing for growing crops? Since you have trimmed it now, there is nothing to worry about." Zhou Ximing didn't care.

He remembered the first time he came here, the land in front of him was still full of ravines and flying yellow sand, not to mention crops, not even a single grass could be seen.The soil is now fertile, and although the seeds have not been formally sown, many weeds have already grown.

Such an obvious contrast made Zhou Ximing believe in Bai Susu's ability even more.

"Farming is not as easy as you think." Bai Susu shook her head. "Returning straw to the field has a great effect on improving the soil condition, but correspondingly, it will also bring troubles to my land."

"What trouble?" Zhou Ximing was startled.

"Ants and insects are easy to grow on the straw. If I don't pay attention, my field will be invaded by these pests, eating and destroying my crops." Bai Susu replied.

But these are just small problems for her, as long as she is careful.

Most importantly, she has a magical system comparable to a treasure chest, and a few bottles of insecticide should be no problem.

Thinking of this, the corners of Bai Susu's mouth curled up, revealing a smug smile.

"Anyway, you don't need to worry about these things, you just need to take care of the children."

She waved her hand and turned around to go home to rest.

"I want to take care of it!" Zhou Ximing was very excited.

He stayed here just to learn the skills of farming, how could he ignore it.

Bai Susu frowned and looked Zhou Ximing up and down.

"Why do you care so much about my fields?" she demanded. "Say! What are your intentions!"

Zhou Ximing was inexplicably guilty, and turned his head to one side awkwardly.

"What intentions can I have? You have no money and no power, and I am not from this village. Is it possible that I will take your fifty acres of land with me when I leave in the future?"

Yes, that seems to be the case.

Bai Susu was persuaded by Zhou Ximing.

"Let me tell you, don't try to fight Jing Shan and Jing Yun's idea, or I will fight you hard."

"...Please, I'm not married yet, and having two children will only drag me down. I'm not crazy."

As soon as the words fell, Bai Susu glared at Zhou Ximing vigorously.

"I don't mean that the two of them are a burden...don't get me wrong. I mean..."

"Stop! You better stop talking, I'm afraid I can't help but beat you up."

Zhou Ximing lived with her for so many days, if Bai Susu didn't trust him, she wouldn't trust Bai Jingyun and Bai Jingshan to his care.Just used to make fun of him.

But there is one thing to say, Zhou Ximing's mouth is really annoying.

As the sun set, the two walked side by side on the field path, staggering towards home.

For the next five or six days, Bai Susu was still the same as before, taking the cow to the straw field every meal, and letting it stay in the field for the rest of the time.Seeing that her field had been dug up with new soil, and there was a tendency to grow crops, some people in the village couldn't sit still, and wanted to ask Bai Susu for advice.

Ever since, Lizheng found her and asked her to help give everyone the method of farming.

Unexpectedly, Bai Susu accepted it readily, and immediately asked Li Zheng to inform the villagers to gather in a wasteland not far from her home the next day.

In the evening, Bai Susu was going to make dumplings.

"what!"

She was concentrating on kneading the dough, and when she turned her head to scoop up water, she met Zhou Ximing face to face, which made her cry out in fright.

"You walk without sound?!"

Bai Susu patted her chest.

Fortunately, the kitchen is on the outside, separated from the living room by a corridor, otherwise the two little guys would be worried if they heard it.

"I've been standing here for a long time, and you haven't found me."

Zhou Ximing folded his arms and looked at Bai Susu with great interest.

"Then you don't talk? Are you going to find an opportunity to plot against me?" Bai Susu cut.

"I said, can you think of me for a day? It's either thinking about your land or plotting against you. I haven't done anything harmful."

Zhou Ximing was very dissatisfied with Bai Susu's behavior of always thinking of him as a villain, and expressed his protest.

"You, a strange man, suddenly appeared in my backyard with injuries. I don't know anything about you, I don't even know your name. If it were someone else, the morning newspaper officer would arrest you. It is my kindness to agree to keep you here, so I probably won't allow me to doubt you. What's the point?" Bai Susu curled her lips.

Zhou Ximing was speechless.

With such a calculation, I really look like a bad person.

"I live in your house because I have an injury and need to recuperate. I will leave when my injury is fully healed. As for my name and identity, I will tell you in the future." He said solemnly Susu promised.

After all, he will most likely need Bai Susu's help to manage the famine year.

"It doesn't matter if you tell me or not, and I don't care." Bai Susu's face was full of disdain, and she only focused on the movements of her hands.

In the blink of an eye, a swollen dumpling jumped into my hand.

"Okay, go back to the living room and take care of Jingshan Jingyun and the others." She urged repeatedly, waving Zhou Ximing away.

Zhou Ximing was afraid that the flour might get on his clothes, so he jumped out of the kitchen.

Looking at the back of him fleeing in a hurry, Bai Susu found it interesting, and couldn't help laughing out loud.

Thinking instead of the conversation with Zhou Ximing just now, her eyes flickered slightly, the smile on her face faded, she lowered her head and continued making dumplings.

How could she not be curious about the identity of a real person after spending a month or two together day and night.But Zhou Ximing deliberately concealed it, and Bai Susu didn't want to ask more.

We are all adults, and there are some truths that we can understand without saying anything.Zhou Ximing didn't even want to tell her his name, he could only explain that he didn't want to have too much contact with her.Bai Susu also thought it was okay.It's just a chance encounter, her only thought is to hope that Zhou Ximing won't cause trouble for her.

She just wanted to bring Bai Jingyun and Bai Jingshan to live in peace.

Yangliu Village is not too big, especially in the past two years when the harvest has been bad, young people have gone out to work, and most of the people who stay are old people and women.Bai Susu originally thought that if the class started, she might score a few more classes, but as a result, everyone got together, and there were only about forty people in total.

Naturally, Mrs. Zhou, who used to look down on Bai Susu, and her sister group did not follow her.

But seeing that everyone under the leadership of Bai Susu started the action of governing the old land, and the few of them who didn't listen to the lecture were still indifferent.Chen Shufen finally couldn't sit still.

"I said Sister Zhou, you refused to let me and Chunhua go to Bai Susu's class at the beginning, but now everyone is doing things in the field, and we are still watching. If this continues, we may not be able to wait." By February the seeds were planted."
