Chapter 214: Coming Out Empty Handed

There were quite a few varieties, but not all of them were planted. Some plants were only planted on one acre, while others were only half an acre.

Not much was harvested in this hot weather.

Ji Jianyun came down from the mountain with two big watermelons, which grew from watermelon seedlings. The watermelons were not bad. He made it cold with water.

With the two watermelons, this group of tough guys were full of happiness.

Hurry up and work quickly, there is not much work left to do, Ji Jianyun said.

It was too hot and stuffy today, he believed it was going to rain. It also rained heavily at this time last year, but he was not in a hurry. He basically had almost everything harvested . With the current weather, this harvest only needed to be dried under the sun for a couple of days and it was done.

After they finished working, Yang Aisen and the others went back to work on their own fields. Ji Jianyun gave them a break and told them to harvest their fields early. He estimated that it would rain in a few days.

His guess was indeed correct. Everyone drying food had to put it away. Rain fell down that day, and there was thunder and lightning.

Su Danhong was startled awake, and Ji Jianyun quickly comforted her. It's okay, it's okay.

Where's Renren and Qiqi? Su Danhong went to look at Renren and Qiqi, and the two brothers slept like piglets. They showed no signs of waking up.

Seeing the two brothers like this, Su Danhong was relieved. She and Ji Jianyun carried them back to their room to sleep.

So when they woke up the next day, Renren and Qiqi were in a great mood. Their parents had carried them over to sleep together.

It's raining so much.

After playing for a while, the two brothers sat on a stool to enjoy the rain.

Da Hei had already come to shelter from the rain by being under the eaves, but he did not enter the house. As for the puppies with him, they were sent to the reservoir by Ji Jianyun after growing up for a month.

Boom.

At this moment, a huge thunder erupted above the sky.

Su Danhong was taken aback. She quickly went out to see her two sons. She knew that these two boys were very brave , especially the young one, who was still learning.

Ji Jianyun smiled and said, My sons are not that timid.

Su Danhong gave him a look, and asked her sons, What do you want to eat this morning?

I want to eat lotus seed congee! Renren said.

Eggy! Qiqi added.

This meant adding eggs to lotus seed congee.

Su Danhong agreed. She told them to wait, and went to cook porridge. The rice they used was home-grown, and it was really delicious.

After the congee was cooked, the whole family had a meal together. The congee was good, and a spoonful of stewed broth was added to it.

During the meal, Su Danhong said, The rain will last for a while, it won't stop.

Ji Jianyun nodded. He guessed that the rain would last for a few days. Fortunately, all the things in his field were harvested.

Are there any problems with the reservoir? Su Danhong asked worriedly.

Ji Jianyun smiled. Although the rain is heavy, it's not that big of a storm.

If it was really big enough to hurt the fish, then it was too late to worry. However, he was not worried, he was happy. It was too hot, and the rain was needed to cool things down, otherwise he would lose a lot of fish in the reservoir.

This rain could be regarded as timely rain.

It rained for four or five days in a row. During the four or five days, some people were really worried because their grain harvest was late. The grain they were drying was sprouting too.

As soon as the rain stopped, Ji Jianyun went to the hospital in the county to buy a lot of disinfectant and came back. The chicken shed, sheep shed, and pig pen were all disinfected.

When it was feeding time, Su Danhong used some medicinal ingredients, including a lot of indigo woad roots, which she planted on the mountain, and then dried and stored. She boiled it many times.

There was still a lot left, so she asked Ji Jianyun to take it to the mountain, and asked Uncle Ji and the others to cook it together and feed it to pigs and chickens.

In addition to that, they used a lot of spiritual spring water, and they also paid attention to hygiene issues. They cleaned every day and disinfected every other day. After the heavy rain, the chickens on the two mountains did not have any incidents.

As for the workers and their families livestock, Ji Jianyun gave them the leftover disinfectant and told them to take it back for their own use.

They had to make sure everything was sanitized.

Uncle Ji also got some, so he took it home when he had the time.

However, Aunt Li didn't take it seriously, and the bottle of disinfectant was not used. Within a few days, the two big fat pigs lost their appetite, then they slowly fell down, and within a day, they died.

Not only the pigs, but seven or eight chickens died.

The news could not be concealed, especially when Aunt Li came out crying. The whole village knew about it.

What is she doing? Su Juan trembled with anger when she saw Aunt Li running out to cry like this.

Mom is sad that the pigs are dead, Ji Jianhe said.

Aunt Li cried outside, They are dead, they are all dead. The two pigs and the eight chickens that laid eggs all got sick and died!

Su Juan wanted to go out and shut her mother-in-law's mouth. She yelled at Ji Jianhe, Why are you still standing there? Go and bring your mother back!

How can you talk to me like that? Ji Jianhe exclaimed.

Talk like what? You should go to your mother. If no one knows that the pigs and chickens are dead, then we can secretly sell them. But now who can we sell it to? Who will buy it from us? Su Juan gritted her teeth.

Ji Jianhe said in confusion, You can't eat dead pork, you'll get sick if you eat it!

That was the plan before. Now that your mother is making such a fuss, I cant go out and sell them. As if I want to go to prison! Su Juan gritted her teeth.

Forget about those chickens. The two big fat pigs were supposed to be slaughtered, but her mother-in-law said that they would continue to raise them, and they would be slaughtered at the end of the year.

Thus, she continued to raise them, but she didn't expect to come out empty handed now. The old woman outside was still yelling and the whole village knew about it. She was so mad at her!

Don't be angry

Ji Jianhe hadn't finished talking, but was interrupted by Su Juan, My father-in-law gave us the disinfectant, but she didn't take it seriously and didn't use it. Now it's all over. How can I live like this? I cant anymore, I'm going back to my mother's house! You two can go clean up the mess yourself!
