After Zhao Yuan walked away, Su Xiaoxue patted Xiaofang on the shoulder and comforted her, "Don't let him affect your mood."

Xiaofang shook her head, "I won't, don't worry."

Looking at the expression on Xiaofang's face, Su Xiaoxue found that she was indeed not too angry.

After calming down a little, Xiaofang said, "I know why he came to me. He just wanted to go back to me after dating a few people who were not as good as me."

Although they are not in the same village, they are not far away from each other. Everyone knows what is going on in this area.

Recently, the matchmaker introduced several girls to Zhao Yuan, but none of them wanted him. He vowed at the beginning that he could find someone better than Xiaofang, but now, each one he found is worse than the last, and they still don't like Zhao Yuan.

Seeing that it was almost the end of the year, Zhao Yuan, who was neither old nor young, was naturally anxious to find a wife and start a family.

So, seeing that Xiaofang was still single, he wanted to flirt with her and see if they could still be together. After all, no matter what, Xiaofang had a job now, her father was the village chief, and her brother and sister-in-law were not doing badly.

But Zhao Yuan had a good plan, and Xiaofang was not stupid either.

Because of the little bit of affection between them, Xiaofang always felt that the relationship should not end hastily.

Now it seems that it didn't end early enough.

Su Xiaoxue responded: "That can only mean you are good. Zhao Yuan couldn't find a good woman, so he thought of you again."

Xiaofang nodded, "Yeah, I know, so I don't like him anymore. This kind of behavior is disgusting."

Especially after Zhao Yuan and Xiaofang broke up, he went out to slander Xiaofang.

Although Xiaofang said she didn't care, her parents would still have an impact on her. She is still angry about this.

The two talked about Zhao Yuan, Su Xiaoxue comforted him with a few words, and Xiaofang felt better.

After a while, the two of them arrived at the field.

Su Xiaoxue waved to her parents in the distance. When they saw Su Xiaoxue, they hurried forward.

"Are you back?" Su's mother said with a smile, holding a peanut seedling in her hand.

Seeing this, Su Xiaoxue asked, "These peanuts are not ripe yet, why are you picking them?"

Mother Su said helplessly: "This seedling is wilting and dying, so I pulled it out to see what it looks like."

Su Xiaoxue looked at the peanut seedlings and found that the leaves were indeed a little wilted.

She quickly asked, "Does this happen a lot?"

Mother Su sighed, "This year it's considered a lot, but ours is not as many as other families'. There are only three or five trees that wilt every day. Your uncle Ming has more."

"Oh okay!"

She looked at her own field and saw that there were several empty spots in the peanut field. The peanut seedlings had all been pulled out.

This is how it works when growing crops. During the growth period, there are always some that do not survive to the end, wilt, or go bad for other reasons.

Su Xiaoxue also grew up in the fields, so she naturally knew this situation.

However, it is rare to see so many peanut seedlings get into trouble.

"Do you know what happened?" Su Xiaoxue asked.

Mother Su shook her head. "I don't know. Anyway, if you see a wilted one every day, just pluck it out. I'm afraid it will infect the peanuts next to it."

Su Xiaoxue didn’t understand these things, so she was worried that there was nothing she could do.

Xiaofang also talked about the situation in her family, which was the same.

"Won't that mean the peanut production will decrease this year?" Su Xiaoxue said.

Father Su also came over and heard their discussion. He responded, "The yield will definitely decrease. When we planted the crops this year, there wasn't much rain and the drought was severe. The crops didn't grow evenly and the seedlings were weak. They finally grew up, but that's it. We can only hope that the yield will decrease so that we can still get something when we harvest them."

Although Su Xiaoxue grew up in the countryside, there were still many things she didn't understand about food.

Even the oldest person in the village, the one who knows best about farming, cannot solve all the food crop problems.

Farmers rely on the weather for their livelihood. In addition to the influence of rain, sun and climate, they may also get sick and suffer from insect pests.

Seeing this, Su Xiaoxue comforted her parents, "Don't worry too much. We don't have many peanuts, so it shouldn't be a big deal. Rice and sweet potatoes won't be affected either, right?"

Father Su replied, "It's better than peanuts, but the lack of rain during planting has had some impact, so the yield is definitely going to be reduced."

Now the grains are in the stage of taking root, sprouting and growing rapidly, and we can see what the situation is.

Su Xiaoxue smiled and said, "It's okay. I make money to honor you. Don't feel too stressed."

Mother Su laughed, but her tone was also much more relaxed, "Xiaoxue is right, don't put too much pressure on yourself."

Father Su nodded.

-

The group returned home from the fields, and Su Xiaoxue told them about her visit to see the shelves.

Their shelves were made with the help of an uncle from the village.

After washing his hands and feet at home, Su's father took Su Xiaoxue there.

Those shelves were made according to Su Xiaoxue's arrangements and there were almost no problems with them.

After looking at it, Su Xiaoxue confirmed that it was suitable and said that she would call a tractor to tow the rack out tomorrow.

"Don't bother with that. How about I use a cart to help you transport it out?" said Su's father.

Su Xiaoxue waved her hand, "No, it's more convenient to use a tractor. You haven't recovered completely yet, so you should be more careful. The doctor said that it would be bad if the disease relapses."

Father Su had no choice but to nod, "Then...if there's anything, just call me."

"it is good."

……

After Su Xiaoxue went back and Qin Chi came back from get off work, she told him about the situation at home.

Qin Chi said: "I know someone in Tractor, do you need my help?"

Su Xiaoxue shook her head, “No, I’ve already found someone good and spent some money.”

She counted the money she had to spend recently with her fingers and sighed, "We've spent a lot of money recently, and I don't know if we can make it back."

Seeing her frowning, Qin Chi reached out and stroked her brow with his thumb, "Don't worry, you work so hard, how can you not make money?"

"Yeah, too."

Having said that, Su Xiaoxue was still somewhat worried.

Seeing this, Qin Chi found a topic and brought this up.

When it comes to eating and drinking, Su Xiaoxue thought of the things happening in the fields at home.

"I don't know why my peanuts always die."

Su Xiaoxue told her everything she saw and heard today.

Seeing this, Qin Chi asked her, "Is the peanut field located at a relatively low position so that water can flow through it easily?"

Su Xiaoxue nodded. "Yes, the place over there is lower, but it shouldn't be flooded. It was fine before, but not this year."

"The climate is different every year. This year it's hot and rainy, plus all kinds of factors, which have led to the impact of bacteria and fungi, causing diseases."

Hearing Qin Chi's words, Su Xiaoxue's eyes lit up and she looked at Qin Chi straight in the eye. "Then do you know how to solve this problem? These peanut seedlings keep dying. By the time they mature, I'm afraid there won't be many left."

In a peanut field, three or five trees die here and three or five trees die there. In a month, hundreds of them will die.

Moreover, it will take another month or so for the peanuts to mature.

Thinking of this, Su Xiaoxue became worried.
