When Yang Zhangshi came back, it was almost noon, and Da Ni was tidying up the weeds next to the pigsty.
As the weather warms up, snakes, insects, mice, and ants will start to become active. Clearing the weeds and then cleaning the ditch under the eaves will make summer much safer and reduce the number of mosquitoes.
Just like Yang Zhangshi said, Da Ni is very capable; she's not afraid of dirt and hardship, almost like an adult.
Seven Happiness returned a bit earlier than Yang Zhangshi. He not only handled all his own affairs but also bought a cart of grain.
This food is for the family's long-term laborers. Although some grain was saved earlier, it wasn't much, and this year's harvest hasn't been reaped yet, so they can only buy it for now.
The Jiang family mainly grows fine grains now, but they also plant quite a bit of coarse grains like sorghum, buckwheat, and corn. After the harvest, they'll have enough for the laborers to eat.
