Chapter 114: CH 73.1

Two days from now, it will be New Year’s Eve, and by that time, it will be Shiyi’s second year of living in this world. 

Last year, she married Yang Shifeng and became his wife. This time, there was another important man in her life— their family’s Little Fatty.

Last year, the family didn’t have a lively life, but this year, it became completely lively because of Little Fatty. 

Little Fatty is the happy pill for the whole family. With only his cheerful cries, the family was full of joy and unspeakable excitement.

Grandpa Yang gave Little Fatty a big red envelope and stuffed it in front of Little Fatty’s chest. 

Little Fatty liked the present his Grandpa Yang gave him. He held the red envelope so tightly, and laughed excitedly, exposing his toothless mouth. 

For this New Year, Uncle Yang came to Yang Shifeng’s together with his family to celebrate the New Year. Like Grandpa Yang, he also gave Tuanzi a red envelope and followed by Xiao Shitou, who gave Little Fatty 300 wen he got his red envelope. With this, Little Fatty suddenly became a rich man…

On the other hand, Yang Shifeng, Little Fatty’s father, didn’t want to fall behind. 

He took out the red envelope he had prepared for a long time from his pocket and kissed Little Fatty: “Tuanzi, you have to grow up healthy.”

“Wah…” Little Fatty danced in Shiyi’s arms.

Shiyi stuffed the four red envelopes into him and pinched his face. “Little Fatty, just hold it for a while and enjoy this happiness. It will be handed in tomorrow.”

Little Fatty couldn’t understand what his mother meant. For him, playing with the red envelopes was fun.

The Yang family has no relatives, and they don’t need to walk around and greet them. They only exchanged New Year greetings and ate meals with people who were familiar with them in the village. In their spare time, their main pleasure is to tease Little Fatty, and from that—a year has passed so quickly.

Spring began not long after the end of the new year, and the weather gradually became hot. The village finally ushered in the planting season, and the winter famine was about to pass.

Yang Shifeng remembered Shiyi’s words and ran to the village head to buy the land behind their home. 

The land was large, but it was close to the mountain. No one would buy it to build a house, so it was useless. But now that Yang Shifeng wanted to buy it, the village head naturally wouldn’t disagree, so he discussed it with the elders in the village, and finally sold it to him for five taels of silver.

After getting the land deed, Yang Shifeng finally asked the question he was curious about. “Shiyi, what do you plan to do with such a large land?”

Shiyi looked at the size of the field and was very satisfied. Such a huge land was just suitable for her to grow herbs. 

Shiyi plans to turn the land behind their house into a medicine field, where she can grow herbs. Planting medicinal herbs is her specialty. 

At the “end of the world”, unnatural medicinal herbs cannot be grown on natural land. She cultivated herbs in the experimental field by herself. But here, there are natural medicinal herbs. 

Whenever she needs them, she goes to the mountain with Yang Shifeng to pick them up. This is the reason why she didn’t bother to cultivate them by herself.

However, the disadvantage of picking medicinal herbs on the mountain is not only the distance and difficulty of picking them up from there but also the quantity of the herbs was also limited. The number of some herbs is very small, and the precious medicinal materials are even rarer. Whether you can pick them depends on luck. However, if she can cultivate them in the experimental field, she can have as many as she wants.

In the past, she didn’t need many herbs for her treatments, so she didn’t want to cultivate them by herself, but now, she has a plan in her heart, and to implement that plan, she needs a large number of medicinal materials to realize it. Going up the mountain was not enough, and she still needed a lot of manpower to do so.

Yang Shifeng was a little surprised, “Do you want to cultivate medicinal herbs yourself? Can you cultivate them?” 

In Yang Shifeng’s understanding, herbs grow in deep mountains and need to be picked by hand. He didn’t know that medicinal herbs could also be cultivated by them. He’s used to seeing many doctors and apprentices in the town, going into the mountains to collect herbs.

“Of course, you can plant herbs by yourself. Just like how vegetables can grow in the wilderness or in the fields with the help of humans, cultivating medicinal herbs is just the same. As long as the method is appropriate, it’s better to plant them by yourself. At least, it’s convenient to harvest, and we will also have a large number of medicinal herbs. “

“But I used to see famous doctors in the town go into the mountains to collect herbs. How come they don’t cultivate the herbs by themselves? “

“That’s because medicinal herbs are not easy to cultivate. The method of cultivating is very important. If the method is wrong, nothing can be planted. If everyone could plant them like growing grain, medicinal materials will not be so precious, and there would be no need for so many doctors to go to the mountains to find them. ” 

In this era, the technology for growing medicinal herbs is not very good, and few doctors cultivate them themselves.

Yang Shifeng realized that it was difficult to cultivate medicinal materials here, and it was not as simple as growing food and vegetables.

Shiyi looked at the land and said, “Brother Shifeng, go find some people who can help you. You have to enclose the land with a fence and connect it with our family’s yard. It’s enough to make a back door, and then cultivate the land for me. Divide it into different sections. I want to plant different herbs.”

Yang Shifeng has always unconditionally agreed to Shiyi’s requests, just like in the past, he agreed. “OK, I’ll find some people who can help and can start working tomorrow. I think it will be finished in a month or so.

“When you start working, you can give the people who helped you 30 wen a day, and aside from that, we will cook their lunch. By the way, if you don’t have time to cook, go to Grandma Wang’s house and ask her to help us cook for a few days. The salary will be the same as for the laborers. The dishes that Grandma Wang’s family made were delicious, and they were also hygienic when it comes to cooking. 

Yang Shifeng nodded and immediately began to wonder who should be called to do the work.

The village has just spent a cold and hungry winter, and everyone’s pockets are cleaner than their faces. It was the time when everyone needed money. And at the same time, Yang Shifeng was looking for people to work for them, with a daily wage of 30 wens. Of course, no one in the village would not want this job. However, Yang Shifeng doesn’t plan to hire everyone. He only wants to hire a dozen reliable people who know how to work hard, and this includes Uncle Yang and Dazhu.

Yang Shifeng gave the responsibility of taking care of the shop to Grandpa Yang, and he led the villagers to build fences and cultivate the land every day. With this, Yang Shifeng could only be very busy and focus his attention on his work every day.

Shiyi would carry Little Fatty to the back of their house every day to watch the people working. 

Little Fatty watched them with relish. He would always point at those people who were working and shout at them. Sometimes he would keep giggling. 

He was in full swing. A discordant voice just blended into the workplace, but everyone really liked Little Fatty. Just by looking at his white and tender face, everyone wanted to pinch and tease him or say a few words to him when drinking water. He said a few words to the workers, and Little Fatty would not refuse anyone who came to him. He had a lot of fun talking to others. If they didn’t know Little Fatty couldn’t understand what they were saying, they would have really thought that he understood what they said.

Sometimes Shiyi has a patient, so, she can’t take Little Fatty to the backyard to watch people work. He would point in the back direction and shout at Shiyi. 

Shiyi would ignore him, and he would slap the bedboard angrily, shouting angrily in response to his mother, which made the patients who came to see the doctor glance at him, thinking that the child was too smart.

Little Fatty now seems to be a little Fatty loved by the whole village.
