The Sickly General’s Spoiled Wife Has Space

   Chapter 101 Crops and Food

  Su Binglan listened and looked up at the sky.

   seems to be a little dry indeed, she didn't notice that it hasn't rained in the village for months.

  In the backward era of ancient times, productivity was low, and everyone depended on heaven for food.

  When the weather is good, you can produce more crops and grains.

   But in a drought year, the villagers are not only more tired than in previous years, but the crops may also dry out.

  The villagers all rely on the harvest of food in autumn to provide for a year of living.

   They have been busy with work from the beginning of spring until autumn, waiting for the harvest of food.

Very not easy.

   So you can imagine how important food is to everyone.

   Su Binglan's neighbor, Aunt Yang, also sighed.

  Su Binglan looked into the field next to her. The crops were all sloppy, and the grains of wheat were not big.

  The ground is cracked.

  Although the villagers are very diligent, they often go to the distant river to fetch water to irrigate the land, but it is useless.

  The weather was so dry that the water evaporated very quickly.

   "If it doesn't rain, how will this day go?"

   "No, the crops are going to die, and a year of busy work will be in vain."

   "If you don't harvest crops, what will you do next year?"

   "Yes, don't starve to death."

   "No way to get some work in town."

   "It's not that easy. It wasn't that no one went to the town to find work before, and they couldn't earn a few coins after working so hard."

   "And if you go to work in another mansion, you won't be able to go home at all, maybe you will die of exhaustion. That's not the case with the Su family, Su Wenzhe."

   Everyone sighed as they said these words, and when they were carrying hoes and barrels, they were all listless.

   Seeing the villagers like this, Su Binglan was thoughtful.

   When Aunt Yang was walking back from the field, she happened to see Su Binglan, and she immediately put on a smile and said, "Is Binglan going to help in the field?"

   Aunt Yang saw that she was carrying a backpack and thought she was helping out in the field.

  Su Binglan smiled and said, "Aunt Yang, I went to the back mountain to have a look."

   "Oh, why did you go to the back mountain again, it's very dangerous, and there are wild beasts, you must pay attention."

  The villagers did not dare to go deep into the back mountain, they were all busy at the foot of the back mountain.

  Because there are wild beasts and wolves in the back mountain, villagers used to go to the back mountain, but after being bitten by the prey accidentally, everyone stopped going to the back mountain.

  There are too many dangers in the back mountain, and you can't come back if you accidentally drop something while walking.

  Aunt Yang's face changed when she mentioned Houshan, mainly because Su Binglan almost lost her life when she went to Houshan before.

  Su Binglan said: "Thank you Aunt Yang, I will pay attention."

   "Aunt Yang knows that you are a good boy, and she has been going to the town to set up a stall to sell things these days, and she is also paying attention to her body."

   Mrs. Yang is kind-hearted. As Su Binglan's neighbor, she used to help Su Binglan often, and she also sent some delicious food to her.

   All these Su Binglan remember.

   "Aunt Yang, what are you doing in the fields?"

   Speaking of this, Mrs Yang sighed and said, "We ordinary people rely on the sky to eat, and life is better when the weather is good. There's really no way to do this."

  After Yang left, Shen Qiuhua and the others followed, "Lan Lan, why are you standing here?"

  Su Binglan walked fast and said to go home to cook first, but after they came out, they saw Su Binglan still standing here.

  Su Binglan was looking up at the sky and said, "Mother, is it raining, everyone's life will be better."

  Shen Qiuhua said: "If it rains, everyone can relax and feel good."

  Liu Yinyin also nodded and said, "It's okay for our family to hire people to work. The villagers have to fetch water from far away every day and water the land over and over again, but the water in the river is almost gone."
