After the New Year passed, it was time to till the fields. For a whole month, all the vegetables in the gardens had been eaten, and even those that hadn't been eaten had rotted away due to the continuous half-month of plum rain.
Taking advantage of these two sunny days, every household took out their quilts and clothes to air them. Afterwards, they all went to turn the soil and plant vegetables.
Many villagers saw the lush, green rice paddies of Ruo Xuan, the village head, and a few other families and felt such envy!
As everyone carried their hoes to the fields, they couldn't help but look at the rice growth in those few families' fields, and the more they looked, the more envious they became.
"The weather's warmed up these last few days, and the rice is growing so much faster! Looks like it's about to head out!"
"Not only is it growing fast! Don't you think these rice plants are growing better than both the early and late rice varieties?"
