“Of course, let’s go in.” Yu Hongyan responded and quickly carried Xue Shi into the house.

“Let’s go.” Xue Erfu called out to the children to go in as well.

Jiang Yue did not go in but glanced at Xue Yan.

Xue Yan understood and said to Xue Erfu, “Erfu, Jiang Yue and I want to go to the fields to take a look at the situation of the land. Aren’t Father and Mother preparing the soil to raise the seedlings of tomatoes and so on?

“At the same time, we can plan on the landscaping and how we will plant them. Jiang Yue and 1 have some time right now. Master Gu said that he would only come to our village at noon. He told Jiang Yue and me yesterday that Jiang Yue and I will go to the old house to practice martial arts with him in the afternoon.’

“Sure.” Xue Erfu had no objections. “Make sure to hold Jiang Yue’s hand.”

“Yes.” As usual, Xue Yan held Jiang Yue’s small hand. The older children took care of the younger ones. In the future, when Xue Shi could walk, she would definitely be the one to take care of him.

Now, they were only sowing and raising seedlings, not planting them for harvest. For the time being, there was no need to clear out all the land at home. They would only use the entire few acres of land to grow the seedlings. If it was not enough, they would clear more land again.

At this moment, Xue Dafu was plowing a large piece of land with the help of a plow and a cow.

It was good to have cows at home. It was much more convenient than using manual labor.

Liu Guixia followed behind. When she saw that there were roots and other sundries in the soil, she used an iron rake to clean them up. Those that could be picked home to be used as firewood would be taken. Those that could not be used as firewood would be thrown aside as fertilizer.

The surrounding land was planted with rapeseed. In fact, their family also planted rapeseed, but the land they were cultivating now did not have rapeseed.

The rapeseed was planted last year. In the second half of last year, the rapeseed planted in the villages were bought from the seed shops in the town. Because of that, the growth of the rapeseed was naturally very gratifying. It had grown very tall. In a few days, it would bloom.

Even though there were still a few days before it bloomed, based on the way it was growing, it was certain that the harvest this year would be bountiful.

Wild greens grew sporadically on the road. They were also quite tall, but they were much thinner than the rapeseed planted.

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan went straight through the path, walked through the rapeseed field, and came to the large piece of land that Xue Dafu and Liu Guixia were tidying.

Xue Dafu and Liu Guixia were naturally happy to see them back.

Because Xue Dafu was still plowing the ground, he couldn’t stand up to help them come in, so Jiang Yue and Xue Yan could only stand on the edge of the land to speak.

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan looked at each other before Jiang Yue spoke, “Didn’t Xue Yan and I successfully dig up wild things last year and plant them? This year, we want to dig up other wild things and plant them to see if we could grow anything new.

“Master Gu Jin said that he knows many people who traveled all over the world and could help us dig wild things in the wild in many places. As long as we pay them, they said that they would do it. Xue Yan and I asked Master Gu if we could get those people to help us dig up some new wild things for us to plant.

“I reckon that next month, our house will have more than enough wild things to grow for the year.”

“That sounds good!” Xue Dafu immediately smiled. “I was just talking to your aunt. Although we left a lot of tomatoes, strawberries, watermelons, potatoes, and corn seeds at home last year, it doesn’t seem like we can grow all of them in the hundred acres we have. We were just thinking about planting some sorghum, cotton, yellow corn, and other things. Since you have that idea, we can use some of the land to plant other wild things here..”
