I Was Called a Poor Widow, But I Relied on My Supernatural Powers To Fight Back In Ancient Times

Chapter 335 Spring Sowing

Although she didn’t put in much effort, her sons could appreciate her hard work and it was all worth it.

"Plowing is hard enough. Mom can handle this little thing by herself. Doesn't it also bring the seeds back? Okay, don't worry about this. Go to your grandpa's house and borrow a three-legged columbine. Hurry up. sowing."

Bai Anyan listened to his mother's instructions, opened his mouth, turned around and went out.

 In the final analysis, their sons are still careless and have to let their mothers worry about everything. Otherwise, their mothers are already old, so why bother?

When sowing, manpower was needed to pull the three-legged columbine. Baiyunxi directly mobilized the whole family, and even Yaya took Ruanruan with her to the fields.

Although she couldn't help much, she carried a small basket and a small shovel to dig wild vegetables by the ditch.

 Breakfast was made by Du Shi and Bai Jingjing who got up early and took it directly to the fields. They could eat it after it was hot at noon.

 Because of the physical labor these days, the food at their house has also skyrocketed. The soup is all made with big bones, and contains sweet potatoes, fried fish, and eggs. It is paired with white flour steamed buns, which makes you appetite.

 Eighteen acres of land, it took two and a half days just to sow.

Three hundred kilograms of spring wheat seeds were used by Bai Anyan, leaving not a single grain left.

Looking at the sown terraces, everyone could not hide the joy on their faces. According to the local climate, their spring wheat was sown one month earlier than in the north, and they would also be harvested earlier.

Baiyunxi calculated the time and found that it should be harvested in mid-June, half a month earlier than the rice. It was just right to stagger the time.

Looking at the fruits of his labor in front of him, Bai Anyan rubbed his hands excitedly.

 “Our family will have endless food this year.”

Bai Yunxi looked at him and nodded in agreement,

“You are right. After sowing, as long as there is proper irrigation and weeding so that the fields are not short of water, there will basically be no problem with a bumper harvest.”

Comparing spring wheat with winter wheat, the growth cycle of spring wheat is shorter, but the taste of spring wheat is not as good as winter wheat.

 But given the current situation of their family, the taste is not important, filling their stomachs is the most important choice.

Furthermore, rice is planted on the western slopes, plus the two acres of winter wheat on the other side of the Qingshui River. If the weather is good, their family will not have to worry about rice and noodles.

If there is a surplus of grain, spring wheat can be sold for money, and it will still be very fragrant.

After sowing on the east hillside, the family moved to the west hillside. After a series of busy processes of watering, fertilizing, and harrowing the fields, the seedlings in the backyard also grew.

 When he started transplanting rice seedlings, Bai Yunxi and Lao Er squatted in the backyard and read through the rice chapter in Shennong's planting manual again, and then went to the field for a field test.

In order to make the seedlings look horizontal and vertical, Baiyunxi also specially made two lines to mark them. They tried it on a terraced field and both of them learned a lot.

Bai Anyan straightened up, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and looked at Baiyun River with interest.

 “Mom, I seem to have figured out the trick.”

Looking at his excited expression, Baiyunxi took a breath silently,

 “If it works, just implement it according to this standard.”

Once the children have learned it, she can let go. It is really tiring to bend down and plant rice.

At this time, she had to admit that she really couldn't hold on for long with her old bones.

Of course, even if she could persist, she didn’t want to do it. At the end of the day, her back and legs ached, and her eyes were filled with stars. She came here to transform her children, not to exhaust herself to death.
