Chapter 358 Sisters Meet
"Yes, I will take your orders."
It wasn't a sudden idea on Shen Li's part. An Wu had been with her for so long, and he always got double the monthly allowance. Now she felt a little embarrassed to take the one hundred taels of silver.
“What crops are being grown on these lands now?”
"They are all sorghum, corn, peanuts, soybeans and so on."
So this is it. These are late-maturing crops. But since they have already been planted, Shen Li can't do anything to destroy the food.
In today's cruel apocalypse, food is undoubtedly the most precious thing, so she would not do that.
It seems that only after this crop is harvested can the land be left idle.
But it doesn't matter. Let's find a place to grow some seeds first. Then when we have more seeds, we can plant more.
In addition, she needed to find a place to hide. The seeds given by Lu Jing were limited, and if she took out too many, she would not be able to explain it.
Thinking of this, he stood up and went to find Shen Changshan, "Dad, I need two pieces of idle dry land."
Shen Changshan thought about it in his mind. There was no vacant land at home. If he wanted it, he would have to go to the foot of the mountain and open up some wasteland.
After all, food is such a precious thing nowadays, no one would leave land vacant.
"Ali, there is no vacant dry land. If you want it, I will call a few people to open up wasteland. No matter how big you want, I can get it for you quickly."
"Don't make it too big, two plots of one acre will be fine, I'll go with you."
Now Shen Changshan could hear her urgency, but he didn't want his smart and beautiful daughter to do such rough work.
"No need, just wait at home. It will be ready in two days. Don't worry."
"Okay, I'm not in a hurry, Dad, take your time."
Anyway, it's already so late no matter how hard we try, so there's no need to rush in these two days.
Shen Li came to the front yard and had people move five large water jars back to her yard. She filled them with soil, planted potatoes in two jars and corn in three jars.
She wanted to observe what was the difference between these things and those of later generations?
Of course, you can also observe what is in the space, but you also have to display some of it on the surface.
After sowing the seeds, there won't be many left. You want more. Potato seeds are relatively less.
A few days later, when Shen Li was teaching Shen Mochi to recite the Three Character Classic, she heard someone outside reporting that the young master and young lady of the Lu family had arrived.
When Shen Li heard this, she knew that it was brother and sister Lu Jing and Lu Nian who came.
In the reception room, Shen Changshan and Lin Cuicui were entertaining the brother and sister.
Shen Changshan said cheerfully, "Ah Jing, Ah Nian, you two siblings haven't been here for a long time, especially Ah Nian, you have grown into a big girl."
Lu Nian looked well behaved, "Uncle and aunt, I want to come too, but my brother won't bring me."
"Yeah, it's all your brother's fault."
"Yes, yes, I think so too."
When Shen Li arrived, she saw the brother and sister chatting happily with Shen Changshan and his wife.
"Grandpa and grandma."
Shen Mochi rushed into Shen Changshan's arms like a small cannonball, and I looked at Lu Nian with curiosity.
"Sister Ali, you are here."
"Dad, Mom, A Jing, A Nian."
Lu Nian pointed at the fat boy in his arms and asked, "Uncle Shen, this is..."
"This is Ali's eldest brother's child, the one that was in her belly back then."
Lu Nian poked his fair and tender cheek and said, "Brother is so cute."
After chatting for a while, Lu Nian couldn't sit still. She was holding a small box in her arms, which should be a gift for Shen Xiaoya.
"Sister Ali, I want to go play with the duckling, brother, can I?"
Shen Li nodded: "As long as your eldest brother agrees, I will have someone take you there."
Lu Jing nodded, "Go ahead, remember to bring Ying with you."
"Okay, then I'm leaving."
Yingxiang immediately followed her pace. Yingxiang was specially found by Lu Jing. She had learned martial arts and had been a bodyguard before. She had pretty good martial arts skills.
Shen Changshan talked to Lu Jing for a while, and then the couple left. Lu Jing came to see Ali, probably for something, so it was better not to waste their time.
"Come with me, I have some planted in my yard, and they have sprouted."
"So fast."
"Well, it's warm now, so it grows fast."
The two of them soon arrived at Shen Li's yard. Lu Jing saw the conspicuous large vat in the yard at a glance. After taking a few quick steps, he saw some green sprouts growing in it.
He still couldn't believe it. It was incredible that such a fragile seedling could grow so much food.
"There are more in the backyard. I'll take you to see them."
"Ah."
He couldn't wait any longer.
"I have also opened up two acres of wasteland on the hillside far away to grow corn and potatoes. If you want to see it, I'll take you there later."
"No need, they are all the same, just watch it here."
There was a bamboo forest behind Shen Li's yard, and a small pavilion was built inside. She watched the bamboo forest with him for a while, and then sat in the pavilion waiting for him.
Lu Jing's expression was as if a pervert saw a beautiful woman. If he had put his willpower on a girl, he wouldn't be single now.
"Duckling!"
Lu Nian was reserved at first, until he saw Shen Xiaoya practicing calligraphy in the yard. He stuffed the box into Yingxiang's hands and trotted over while holding up her skirt, calling out.
Shen Xiaoya put down the brush in her hand and took two steps forward, bumping into Lu Nian who was running towards her. She took two steps back and steadied herself.
"Little duck, I missed you so much!"
Although the two girls are about two years old, perhaps because of her martial arts training, Shen Xiaoya is half a head taller than Lu Nian. She is also more mature, so when they stand together, she looks like her older sister.
Lu Nian took the box from Yingxiang, "Little Duck, these are all what I like, so I prepared one for you as well."
Shen Xiaoya saw the passing villagers looking towards her house, so she walked over to close the gate, pulled Lu Nian into the house, and saw her stuffing a box into her arms, so she hugged her.
"Little Duck, where are your parents?"
"They went to the fields."
"Oh."
Lu Nian looked at the surrounding environment. For her, it was indeed a bit too shabby, but she did not show any disgust, because she had experienced it before, and it was even worse than this.
My brother said that you should not try to hide what happened to you, as it will eventually become a sharp blade that can hurt people. Only by exposing it can you become strong and others cannot use it to hurt you.
"Little duck, look quickly."
"it is good."
Shen Xiaoya opened the wooden box, revealing the jewelry inside. Each one was exquisite and unique, and one of them was the same as the one on Lu Nian's head.
Shen Xiaoya took a closer look and a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. These jewelries were not very expensive and were within her acceptable range.
"Thank you, Anian."
Lu Nian looked at her, wrinkled his nose and asked, "Why are you thanking me? Do you like it?"
"like."
Lu Nian smiled, his curved eyebrows and eyes made people happy, "I'm glad you like it. I'll bring it to you next time."
