Forced to marry a disabled man in the countryside? I'll repay you tenfold!

Su Wanqing nodded with a smile and said, "It's true that we should raise some pigs. If they grow fast, we might be able to slaughter them for the New Year!"

Just thinking about braised pork ribs, braised pork hock, braised pork intestines, and even some extra smoked cured meat... made her mouth water.

The only headache is the feed problem. The sheep and chickens outside are fine, but the 27 pigs in her space are growing at 10 times the normal rate, which means they need to consume hundreds of kilograms of feed every day.

Su Wanqing's consciousness sank into the space and saw that the first crop of the enhanced alfalfa planted on one acre of land was almost ready to be harvested (it can be harvested repeatedly). After thinking for a moment, she used her consciousness to plant corn, sweet potatoes, and wheat next to it, leaving only one acre of land blank.

I initially thought the planting capacity would be enough, but now that I've only raised a few dozen pigs, it's already starting to feel insufficient... I hope the enhanced alfalfa supply will be more effective and provide enough food for the pigs!

Su Wanqing was already quite adept at feeding pigs and mixing feed during the autumn harvest. She took some wheat bran, cornmeal, and sweet potato chunks from her spatial storage, sprinkled them with salt and spiritual spring water, mixed them together, and fed them to the piglets.

The 27 little pigs ate until their bellies were round, and then they fell asleep as soon as they finished eating.

Su Wanqing: "..." What a heartless pig.

When the oxcart finally swayed back to the 65th Regiment, it happened to pass by the threshing ground where grain was being distributed. The bleating of ewes and the chicks chirping on the cart immediately attracted everyone's attention.

"Oh dear! Comrade Su, Comrade Zhou! Where did you get so many kids?"

"My goodness, a ewe with lambs? These are the farm's precious darlings! I had to wait in line for ages just a few days ago to apply for two chicks, and you guys..."

"Of course, it must be because Dr. Su has done another good deed, and the regiment must have specially approved this reward!"

Listening to the discussion, Su Wanqing was also a little curious. She looked at Zhou Yanshen, wondering what her man had been doing in secret. It seemed like whatever he wanted to apply for, the higher-ups would approve it.

Zhou Yanshen caught her gaze, coughed lightly, and said evasively:

"You wait at the threshing ground to receive your share of the grain and sign the papers. I'll take the sheep and chickens home and settle them in first, then I'll come pick you up in a bit."

He had to get these animals back quickly to avoid attracting too much attention. Luckily, the sheepfold and chicken coop had already been built, otherwise it would have taken him a lot of effort.

The threshing ground was bustling with people. The autumn harvest settlement meeting had already begun, and soon they would have to sign for their grain. Moreover... Sister Zhao's bet of three months' worth of work points had to come to an end.

So Su Wanqing suppressed her curiosity for the time being and nodded: "Okay, then you go ahead and get busy. I'll go back and take a good shower after I've finished distributing the grain." She was still wearing Zhou Yanshen's coat.

After Zhou Yanshen left, Chen Xiuer, carrying her bundled-up baby, arrived with her mother, Aunt Wang. The weather was still hot, but Chen Xiuer was recovering well. A group of women and aunties gathered around, chattering amongst themselves:

"Xiuer, did Dr. Su really make an incision in your stomach to take the baby out? Didn't it hurt?"

"Tsk tsk, you're really lucky to be alive!"

"Dr. Su's skills are truly amazing! Now we women can finally have some hope when it comes to having children!"

"Xiuer, quickly show us what the scar on your stomach looks like!"

Chen Xiuer was thoroughly annoyed by the questions. If it weren't for the requirement to be present during the autumn harvest settlement (based on a headcount), she really wouldn't have wanted to come out. Seeing Su Wanqing now was like seeing a savior; she immediately grabbed her child, pulled her mother along, and squeezed through the crowd.

"Dr. Su! You've finally arrived! My breasts have been so swollen and painful for the past two days, like two stones!"

Su Wanqing nodded, first looking at the little dumpling in her arms, whose face was rosy. "The little one is growing well. Your breasts are probably swollen because you have too much milk."

A few days ago, Xiuer didn't have enough breast milk, so she let the baby suckle more. If that didn't work, she asked the baby's father to help by suckling.

It's only been a few days, and you already have too much breast milk?

Chen Xiuer blushed and didn't dare to reply.

Her husband, Zhao Shupi, scratched his head, saying, "Dr. Su, I've been doing what you said these past two days, helping to clear the blockage every day... but it seems like there's too much now. I drink my fill every day, but I can't not drink it, it's all a waste!"

At first he was hesitant, but after these few days, he found it to be heavenly. The only problem was his wife's incredible fertility; he was almost at his limit. He drank whenever she was pregnant, and he drank whenever the baby drank...

Su Wanqing: "..."

She gently pressed Chen Xiuer's chest through her clothes; it was indeed hard as a rock. She covered her forehead.

"Your swelling is caused by blocked milk ducts! The more you suckle, the more irritation you create, forming a vicious cycle. From now on, you shouldn't suckle anymore; just let the baby drink. If there's any left, express a little, but don't empty the breast completely. I'll give you a couple of acupuncture points later to clear the milk ducts."

She glared at Zhao Shupi. "You damned man, how many times has he been taking drugs today? Are all men like this?"

Then I thought of Zhou Yanshen again.

Zhou Yanshen was very well-behaved last night and didn't even think about touching this or that.

Wait, you're getting the wrong idea!

As they were talking, Liu Shuqing, holding a tin megaphone, finally finished reading out this year's inspiring harvest summary, which exceeded expectations by nearly 20%! Then came the most exciting part—calculating work points and distributing the grain!

Liu Shuqing's voice boomed: "...Thanks to the efforts of all comrades, our 65th Regiment has achieved a bumper harvest this year! Now, let's announce the work points and distribution list! Comrades whose names are called, come up and sign and leave your fingerprints. Receive your wheat and corn first; sweet potatoes will be distributed according to the quantities on the list later!"

"Zhang Sanwa, 2850 work points for the whole year, allocated: 150 jin of wheat, 200 jin of corn, 300 jin of sweet potatoes, 20 jin of soybeans, and a cash subsidy of 18.5 yuan!"

A buzz of discussion immediately erupted below.

"Good heavens! This year's drought was severe; I thought the harvest was doomed, but unexpectedly, we received even more than last year!"

"This is all thanks to that miraculous well that Dr. Su dug! The wheat irrigated by it is fuller than in previous years!"

"Exactly! Otherwise, we wouldn't even be able to get food, let alone distribute it!"

Sister Zhao felt uneasy in the crowd. Why hadn't it been her turn yet, even though everyone else had finished reading? The bet she made earlier wasn't valid, so would they really deduct her work points?

Could it be that Director Liu still remembers this incident?

Soon they read out the names of the people from the educated youth settlement.

"Tian Dahua, 3120 work points for the whole year, allocated as follows: 180 jin of wheat, 230 jin of corn, 350 jin of sweet potatoes, 25 jin of soybeans, 5 jin of peanut oil as a bonus, and a cash subsidy of 22 yuan and 8 jiao!"

Tian Dahua had the highest work points among the educated youth. She worked hard and was the team leader, so she received the most grain and money.

She walked forward with her back straight, a look of pride on her face.

"As expected of Captain Tian, ​​she's the most capable! Even the man she married is... hehe, I heard he was up half the night last night, he's quite capable too!"
