Whose farming family has the male protagonist giving three piglets as a gift at the beginning?

Chapter 569: The chicken is not in good spirits and needs fennel root to heal it

Looking at Su Ziling's leaving back, the family was stunned for a moment, but soon they perked up.

After a long while, the woman asked weakly, "Dad, are we really going to listen to her? We have been planting in holes for so many years. We have never heard of ridge planting before. Can it work? How old is this girl from the Su family..."

Before she could finish her words, the old woman coughed heavily, interrupting her.

The old man over there didn't say anything, but the man next to him frowned, stopped what he was doing, and put his hands on the hoe handle.

With an unhappy look on his face, "You are a woman, what do you know?"

"You still can't see the situation clearly, right? I told you to hang out with them more often, but your feet seem to be stuck with nails and you just can't move forward. You're getting closer to Zhu Yu, but you can't see what kind of bird she is?"

"Don't spend as much time with her in the future. She's always causing trouble. She hasn't learned anything else, but she has definitely learned to be short-sighted."

The man scolded the woman so much that she dared not say a word and could only work silently.

Seeing that she had calmed down, the man continued to work, digging furrows while talking to the old man.

"Dad, digging furrows is indeed much faster than digging nests. What did my uncle say when you asked him?"

"What can your uncle say? He couldn't explain it clearly. It was Xiaoqing who came over and said a lot. In short, making ridges and furrows is a new way of planting. It will produce a better harvest. It is said that this method will increase the yield by about 20% compared to our original method. Another thing is that it is more drought-resistant."

The old man thought about it for a long time, but that's all he remembered.

The man was stunned. "No more?"

The old man frowned and began to glare, "How much more do you want? You just need to remember that it can increase production, why do you need to remember so much else?"

The man muttered, "I guess you didn't remember it?"

His voice was too soft and the old man didn't hear it, otherwise he would have been hit twice.

"This niece knows so much!" Her tone was full of envy. "It would be great if I had a daughter like her."

The old man rolled his eyes at him and said, "Why are you daydreaming before it gets dark?"

The man was choked, "..."

"Dad! Can't I think about it? Just think about it, if you have such a capable granddaughter..."

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by the old man, "I dare not think about it, I dare not think about it, I dare not think about it."

As he spoke, he lowered his voice, "With your wife's character, you still want to have such a capable daughter? You are dreaming, hurry up, dig faster!"

"Uh..." The man choked again.

Resigned to his fate, he began to dig furrows. "Dad, can't you just let me dream? But you're right. Don't worry. I'll talk to her after this wave of work is over. If she's still naive,

He paused, then said, "If we can't teach her, then let's send her back and let her parents teach her well!"

Thinking of her terrible family background, the old man sighed, but did not stop her.

He is already old, but still doesn't understand things. At present, the life in their village is getting better and better, but I'm afraid it will be even worse in the future. If this person is still not sensible, I'm afraid he will cause other troubles.

He would not allow anyone to ruin this hard-earned good life.

"You're right. This girl is capable. Life in the village changes every month. We never dared to imagine it before. Didn't she always ask those kids for help? Let Erya run around her more often. It's not about making money or anything like that. The main purpose is to let her see more and learn more."

"If I could learn even a little bit of that girl's skills in dealing with people, it would be amazing."

"Oh, I know. I told Erya the same thing. She got along well with Xiu and Xiaoqing knew her. Even when Xiu went to school, Erya would go with Xiaoqing whenever she needed help."

"This girl also worships her elder sister to no end."

Su Ziling is the oldest girl in her generation, and the children in the village call her Big Sister.

No matter how old they are, two years younger than her or as young as when they could just walk, they all chased after her and called her "big sister".

Su Ziling had no idea that this family was talking about her. They had a large family and the ridges had been dug in advance, so they could naturally work very quickly.

In just one hour, the several plots of land here were planted. Seeing that there were still a lot of seeds, everyone began to move to another location.

"Xiao Qing, why don't you go back and cook, and bring it to us when it's done? Let's stay a little longer today while the sun isn't out and it's not too hot. We won't have to go back. Going back and forth will take up quite a bit of time."

Su's mother said this while cleaning the mud off her shoes.

"Okay, I just planted some sunflower seeds and beans. I'll go back and cook after I finish planting."

"Ah? Did you bring sunflower seeds?" Su's mother turned her head to look at her, obviously she didn't know.

Su Ziling nodded, "I brought it with me. I went back to get it before I left. I also took a little bit."

The spacing between the corn rows is so wide that it cannot be wasted. It can be used to plant red beans, yellow beans, etc.

A nest of sunflower seeds can be poked in the middle of the ridge at the edge of the field, so that not only corn can be harvested, but also beans and sunflower seeds.

"Can you do it alone? How about I go with you?" Su's mother asked worriedly.

Before Su Ziling could answer, Old Master Su spoke up, "Then you two can order the beans here, and then go back to cook. Otherwise, Qing can't carry so many things by herself."

"I think the seeds are only enough for one morning. She will have to carry not only the food but also the seeds. The road is slippery and difficult to walk on. You should go with her."

After hearing what Grandpa Su said, Su's mother nodded in agreement. She was originally worried about whether she could finish planting, but now she was worried that she couldn't carry it anymore.

"Okay, then I'll order with her here, and you guys go to Pingzidi."

After Su's father and others left, Su Ziling and Su's mother had a clear division of labor. One planted the beans, while the other walked around the field and was responsible for planting sunflower seeds.

After finishing ordering the sunflower seeds, the two of them can order the beans together.

An hour later, the mother and daughter stood at the edge of the field, looking at the footprints all over the ground. Mother Su breathed a sigh of relief, "Fortunately I ordered with you, otherwise one person really couldn't finish it. Let's go back and cook, your father and the others must be hungry."

As soon as she finished speaking, Su Ziling's stomach growled. She chuckled, "I've worked all morning, I'm hungry too."

Walking along the stalks of the ground, Su Ziling saw some fennel seedlings and pulled a handful. Thinking of the chickens at home, she licked her lips.

"Mother, let's dig up some fennel roots."

"Fennel roots? Why dig them up? Fennel seedlings are enough." Su's mother was confused.

"When I woke up this morning, I saw a chicken in our chicken coop that seemed a little listless. I wanted to dig up some fennel roots and take it back to treat its illness."

Mother Su: "..."

If you are greedy, then you are greedy. It's no use talking in such a grandiose way.

"When did you go to the chicken coop this morning? Why didn't I see you? I don't remember you getting up late and coming out to work without even having time to wash your face?"

Su Ziling: "..."

If Su's mother hadn't mentioned it, she would have really forgotten about it. It seemed like she really didn't have time to wash her face.
