In March, except for the cool mornings and evenings, the temperature was warmer at noon, and all the plastic films that had previously covered the rice fields were lifted up.

The weather was warm, and the seedlings grew fast. Ten days later, the seedlings had grown to about ten centimeters.

It rained several times in the past two days and the weather has turned cold again. While there is water in the fields, everyone is busy plowing the soil, hoping to plant the seedlings before Qingming Festival.

Many villagers do not dare to plant all high-yield rice varieties and only plant a small part. The rest are still traditional low-yield rice varieties.

All the seedlings were planted in the same field, and soon the advantages of the high-yield rice varieties became apparent. It is true that there is no harm without comparison.

Everyone was surprised to find that the high-yield seedlings were surprisingly good. When the two kinds of rice were planted at the same time, the superiority and inferiority could be seen at a glance.

This high-yield rice variety looks green at first glance, and the seedlings have thick roots and many branches. In contrast, the seedlings grown from traditional rice varieties have yellow leaves, are wilted, small, and sickly.

Everyone rushed to tell each other, and many villagers who had bought too little rice seeds beat their chests and stamped their feet. They now began to believe what Shen Ping said.

Now the villagers are starting to worry about one thing again, that is, they are afraid that the seedlings will be stolen.

For this reason, many villagers would come to guard the fields after nightfall, for fear that someone would come to steal the seedlings when it was dark and windy.

Everyone was busy plowing the soil, wanting to plant the seedlings as soon as possible. After another week, most of the villagers had plowed the soil and planted the seedlings one after another.

Shen Ping told the villagers that the seedlings branched very quickly, so only one seedling was needed when planting, and the spacing between plants should be about 30 centimeters.

Don't plant too many, let alone too densely, otherwise the rice yield will be reduced. Everyone believed Shen Ping's words and followed her instructions.

Shen Ping has a total of 20 acres of land, and in the rest of the fields she grows vegetables and some grains.

Some villagers bought less high-yield rice seeds at the time, and they all asked around to see who had extra seeds. But now everyone knows that this stuff is good, so how could they let it go? The villagers who bought less could only regret it secretly.

After all, these rice seeds come from space. They are high-yield rice seeds. After being improved by the black soil in space, their advantages are quickly apparent.

On the third day after being planted, the seedlings had taken root and stood up. Ten days later, the villagers were pleasantly surprised to find that this high-yield rice seed was growing well. The plants had tillered and had grown into more than ten plants, forming a full bunch.

At first glance, traditional seedlings grow slowly and have few tillers.

For a time, everyone was discussing the rice seedlings after dinner. The villagers would go to the fields every day and take good care of the rice seedlings.

Shen Ping's mother-in-law, Mrs. Li, had been grinning from ear to ear during this period. Fortunately, she listened to the advice of the second son's wife and planted all the high-yield rice seeds.

Previously, the third son had told her not to trust the second son's wife completely, so as not to miss the spring ploughing. In the end, it was the old man who spoke up and they finally planted all the high-yield rice.

To be honest, most people in the village planted a lot of high-yield rice seeds, and some even planted all of their own fields.

As for the village chief, he also chose to believe Shen Ping. Regardless of anything else, just because Shen Ping planted all the rice seeds himself, he felt there was hope.

Now, Shen Ping has prestige in the hearts of the villagers. No matter what, she is a widow who has successfully turned this bad hand into the richest woman in the village. This alone makes her much stronger.

Seeing that her granddaughter would be one month old in a few days, Mrs. Dong came over early.

She had also made preparations in the provincial capital, waiting to take Mo Ru back.

After repeated consideration, Mr. and Mrs. Mo decided to let Mo Ru leave Zhang's house directly and go straight to the provincial capital to avoid unnecessary trouble.

When you pass by the Moral Education Academy, you can go back and pay your respects to your ancestors. At the same time, a banquet will also be held at the Moral Education Academy.

In the past few days, Shen Ping has also been making arrangements. Her goddaughter is getting married, which is of course a big event, not to mention that the man she is marrying is the son of the prefect and the wife of a scholar.

If this matter was handled well, it would also give Lord Xu and his men enough face. So Shen Ping decided to handle it vigorously as well.

One day in advance, Shen Ping spread the word and invited all the villagers to come. The temporary kitchen was put to use again, and Shen Ping put the ingredients in the kitchen in advance.

Everyone was now familiar with the job and had taken their positions. The next morning, everyone came with their tables and spontaneously looked for work to do.

Some villagers felt a little unfamiliar with the bride. Although they knew about this person, they did not have a particularly deep impression of Mo Ru.

Moreover, Mo Ru was pregnant at the time and rarely appeared in public, so many villagers did not know that Mo Ru was pregnant and had a child.

In addition, Shen Ping asked Dadong and Honggu to tell the servants to keep their mouths shut. If anyone leaked the news, don't blame her for being rude.

Everyone knew the importance of this matter and did not dare to speak out against it. After all, the lady was very good to them and it was hard to find a master like her.

If I offend the lady and make her angry, and then sell them to a pawnbroker, I don’t know what kind of owner I will meet in the future.

Many servants were sold by wealthy families. They knew the feeling best and understood that they should talk less and do more in order to protect themselves.

Mrs. Xu sent five carriages this time. The couple would ride in one, and their son and daughter-in-law would ride in one, as well as the wet nurse and the baby.

The other carriages carried the betrothal gifts to the Moral Education Academy, and when they returned, they could also carry the dowry.

Because the provincial capital was quite far away, Magistrate Zhang suggested that the county government office vacate two rooms for the Xu family. Xu Hao, wearing a bright red groom's robe, set out from the county government office to meet the bride.

After picking up the bride, they would return to the county government office to hold the wedding ceremony. This would complete the process, and after a short rest, they would set out back to the provincial capital on the third day.

Passing by the Mo Family Academy, this trip would be considered a return visit to her parents' home. She would stay for a while at her mother's house before the whole family set out back to the provincial capital.

This method is good, saving time and effort, and has been unanimously agreed by everyone.

It’s better to just come out of confinement, because the food is provided, all aspects are well taken care of, and the body has almost recovered.

Erya helped Moru design a bright red wedding dress a few days in advance. The dress was embroidered with lilies, lotus flowers, and mandarin ducks, symbolizing a happy marriage and a long life together.

As for the phoenix crown, Shen Ping bought it in the mall. This phoenix crown uses the latest 4D printing. In terms of craftsmanship, it is comparable to the traditional heavy phoenix crown without being bulky.

Just after finishing her confinement, Mo Ru looked much rounder, her oval face became an oval one, and her skin looked whiter and tenderer.

First, the matchmaker helped her to twist her hair with a thread, and then Erya helped her to put on makeup.

Erya applied a thin layer of makeup-free cream on Mo Ru's face, put on some blush, drew eyebrows, applied lipstick, and did her fingernails.
