NovelEnglishChapter 155: Teaching
Yang Maozhong happened to be in Zhao Zhan’s group. When he saw Zhao Zhan walking over, he said with an honest expression, “My wife has been talking about this matter all day. I’ll teach her when I get home later. You don’t know this, but she’s already set up a trap for me.”
Yang Maozhong lived in the back row of Zhao Eryou’s house.
When Zhao Zhan’s parents passed away, Yang Maozhong married Gu Xiaoyu. At that time, when they heard her scolding Zhao Zhan at home and even chasing him out for dinner, they would occasionally secretly stuff a grain cake into his mouth.
It was not easy for them to make a living, and they had already done their best by giving him these.

“Good boy.”
Yang Maozhong punched Zhao Zhan’s shoulder and grinned. “You’ve been in this town for a long time, so you’re no longer the same as us. You’re just like your father back then!”
“I’m not as good as my father. He was the one who taught me these words.”
Zhao Zhan’s dejected expression was instantly replaced by one of excitement. He led them directly to his own manure pit and explained in detail how to dig the pit and what was special about it. He also explained what to use for the manure and things to pay attention to. It took him more than two hours to complete the session.
All of them were used to doing farm work, so they basically understood what to do after hearing Zhao Zhan’s explanation.
“Zhao Zhan, since we’ve already learned how to use the retting fertilizer, and Master Sun said that he won’t be working today, why don’t we use this time to go to the field and plant the seedlings?”
Yang Maozhong looked at everyone and shouted, “Isn’t that right, everyone? It’s only half an acre of land and it’s not even as big as ours at home. Wouldn’t it take a short while?”
“Hasn’t my wife been at the village entrance all day telling your women to plow the land? You guys can go to your own fields to take a look. If there’s someone as capable as my wife, they must have already handled the fields. Otherwise, if we don’t do anything and they still pay us for an entire day, we won’t be able to justify ourselves!”
Yang Dashan, who had just finished teaching the guys, heard this and shouted, “That’s right! Maozhong is right, if there’s anyone whose land is not easy to turn over, I’ll go home and get a hoe to help.”
“Good idea. Since everyone’s almost done learning, it’s better to go to the fields now. Yang Lizheng was stroking his beard and nodding. Otherwise, it’ll be cold every day. Since we’ve already planted it, we should get more harvest and exchange it for copper to celebrate the New Year.
“Willow Village might be able to rely on this half an acre of land to add more meat to our family this year.

The group of people went home one by one, with Yang Maozhong at the back. “Zhao Zhan, you should move the seedlings to the other side and wait for them there. Don’t wait for the seedlings to arrive before we’re done with the work.”
“I’ll move it with Dashan.”
Yang Lizheng followed them with a happy face. Zhao Zhan and Yang Dashan carefully picked the seedlings in batches. Li Miao, who had just sent Liu Xiaowan away, also helped.
“I don’t know how long it’ll take today. I just told Lizheng to send you, can you come to my house to accompany Jiaojiao? I’m a little worried about her being alone at home.”
“Oh no, it’s not a big deal. I can just walk there. Why would I take the ox cart? What a waste of that copper coin.”
As a woman, Li Miao could only be envious of Yue Jiaojiao.
After all, even though they were looking for trouble with her, they had given her copper coins and called for a ride. She was also well-mannered and did not find it troublesome. Just based on how well Zhao Zhan and Yue Jiaojiao treated their family, it would be unreasonable if she did not help them.
