After wearing it: I traded a pig for a man.
Chapter 31 Guaranteeing Production
Jiang Yun Ning deliberately rested her head on Jiang Che's shoulder, a gesture that made Jiang Che stiffen.
"Oh, my Jiang Che is not only handsome, but also very caring. He washes all my clothes." She said, deliberately turning her head, "Right, husband?"
The deliberately drawn-out sound tickled Jiang Che's ears.
"Hmm." He nodded.
He did wash it, but he lost a bet.
At the same time, Jiang Che also began to reflect on himself. As a husband, should he help his wife wash clothes?
He saw that Jiang Yuntian did just that, often washing clothes for Liu Yuzhi.
Even though they're a fake couple, they should at least act convincingly.
"You!" Song Mingzhen blushed. "Shameless!"
She turned and ran away, and the group laughed and joked for a few moments before continuing.
Jiang Yun Ning let go of Jiang Che's hand: "You smell so strongly of a pigsty? Did you roll around in a pigsty?"
Jiang Che was speechless.
Sometimes, I really want to pry open Jiang Yun Ning's head and see what's inside.
One second they're all sweet and affectionate, the next they're saying things that make you want to hit them.
"I just went to feed the pigs, and their bellies are getting bigger and bigger." He has now completely integrated into the Jiang family's life.
Even if I accidentally step in pig manure now, I'll just frown and not gag like crazy.
Moreover, he cleans the pigsty every day, at least twice a day.
The pigsty is very clean now.
"Oh, just kidding." Jiang Yun Ning liked his inability to take a joke.
I wanted to hit her, but I couldn't bring myself to do it.
After a rain, the corn seedlings in the Jiang family's field were already more than ten centimeters taller than those of other people.
"Third brother," the village head had no choice but to shamelessly approach, "what's the method Yun Ning mentioned last time? Could you tell everyone in the village about it?"
Jiang Laosan nodded happily: "Why not?"
"Then, this afternoon I'll have Yun Ning go to my field, and I'll call everyone over so they can all learn something." The village head was relieved.
Otherwise, with the corn yield being the same as last year, and the land tax being so high this year, I'm afraid the village will have a tough winter.
At noon, Jiang Laosan mentioned this matter to Jiang Yunning.
"Okay." Jiang Yun Ning nodded.
The villagers' production has increased, so there's no need to worry about anyone stealing their grain.
If survival is an option, who would willingly risk being the villain?
In the afternoon, the whole family went to the fields.
Wang Cuihua and Jiang Laosan, an elderly couple, walked with a brisk pace.
Jiang Yunning felt somewhat ashamed.
The village head's land was by the river, and when the group arrived, it was already crowded with people.
Jiang Yuning glanced around and even spotted Song Mingzhen, dressed up in a new outfit. Her shy, timid gaze gave Jiang Yuning goosebumps.
"Your romantic entanglements are back," Jiang Yun Ning muttered to Jiang Che in a low voice.
Jiang Che had no idea what she was talking about, and just looked at her with a puzzled expression.
"Yun Ning, my little girl." The village head smiled when he saw her. "I was trying to stop you a few days ago, but I apologize to you today."
Jiang Yunning quickly waved her hand: "Uncle, what are you doing? I know you're doing this for my own good."
She always thought the village head was a good person, approachable and without any ill intentions. He was wholeheartedly devoted to the good of the village.
Moreover, the village head did indeed help her a lot on many occasions.
"Village head, what exactly is this method you're talking about to increase production?" someone couldn't hold back any longer.
It was a rather hot day, late in the afternoon, and with so many people gathered here, the air felt stuffy.
"Listen up, everyone." The village head raised his hand: "I don't know if you've seen it, but Jiang Laosan's corn has already grown to his knees, much taller than ours."
"I saw it. Third brother, how do you grow them?"
"Yes, I saw it too. How come it's so much taller than ours?"
Jiang Laosan smiled and said, "My daughter taught me all of that. She learned it from other people in town."
Amidst a cacophony of chatter, Jiang Yun Ning stepped forward and demonstrated a few moves.
"Corn needs space to grow, unlike wheat which can be planted so densely." She said, pointing to a few corn plants in front of her. "For those that grow in pairs, we just pull out the smaller one."
"For those that are too close together, pull them out from the middle."
As she spoke, she plucked a few more seeds.
"Ouch, why did you pull them all out?"
"These things don't grow very big to begin with, and you're going to pull out so many of them?"
"Village head. Are you just going to watch her run wild?" Jiang Youfu squeezed in.
When the village head went to his house to inform him in the morning, he thought the village head had gone mad.
They actually believed Jiang Yun Ning's crazy talk.
Jiang Yun Ning glanced at him but didn't say anything.
Anyway, she's already taught me the method; whether I believe it or not is up to me.
"Uncle, that's all." Jiang Yun Ning patted the dirt off his hands.
"Alright." The village head nodded, then addressed the villagers, "Everyone saw that, right? Is there anyone who hasn't learned it yet?"
The group hesitated.
"Third brother, aren't you even taking care of your daughter?" Jiang Youfu said, somewhat displeased at being ignored. "Jiang Yunning, can you guarantee that doing what you say will increase production?"
The village head looked at him and said, "Jiang Youfu! If you don't want to learn, then leave. No one is forcing you."
But the people around them had already been stirred up.
"Village head, Jiang Youfu is right. What if the output isn't even as high as before?"
"Who can argue with that? But the corn at the third brother's house is definitely much taller."
"The land tax is so high this year. What if we try and fail? How will we survive? How can Jiang Yun Ning, a mere girl, know more than us?"
Jiang Laosan was a little angry. His daughter was just trying to be kind, so why was she being talked about like that?
Just as he was about to speak, Jiang Yun Ning stopped him.
"Dear uncles and aunts, I'm just relaying what I've seen outside. Whether you believe it or not is up to you."
Nonsense, who can guarantee that? What if there's a drought or flood? Wouldn't these people eat her alive?
Doing good deeds is fine, the method has been explained, whether she believes it or not is none of her business. You can't expect her to bear responsibility for doing a good deed, right? That doesn't make sense.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Youfu became even more self-righteous: "See, I told you she doesn't know anything. A mere young girl dares to show off in front of people who have been farming for decades?"
This made those who were already skeptical even more uneasy.
"Bullshit." Jiang Yuntian couldn't help but say, "My sister pulled up the seedlings on our land herself. You all saw how tall and strong they grew."
"Exactly." Liu Yuzhi knew Jiang Yuntian had a straightforward temper, but if Jiang Youfu said that about Jiang Yunning, not to mention Jiang Yuntian, she couldn't stand it either.
"When we used to grow corn, only one out of ten kernels would survive, and even fewer would grow to bear fruit. But ours are all alive now, and they're growing strong and healthy."
Jiang Yun Ning felt a little embarrassed. But seeing how her family was defending her, she could only explain in more detail.
But how could she explain photosynthesis and pollination in a way that these people could understand?
Got it!
