Chapter 382 The joy of harvest
Chapter 382 The joy of harvest
Shen Li lay on Pei Yu, gasping for breath. Her clothes were still intact, but Pei Yu under her was a little pitiful. His clothes had been torn apart, revealing his strong chest and abdominal muscles.
Pei Yu held her slender waist, his lips rubbing the delicate skin on her neck, trying his best to endure the dryness in his body.
Not long after, Shen Li pushed his head away, "Pei Yu, you spit all over my neck!"
Pei Yu held her up, picked up her handkerchief, and said in a good-tempered manner: "It's my fault, I'll clean it for you."
"Don't."
Shen Li took the handkerchief from his hand and said, "Let me do it myself. I need to rest. You should go back quickly."
Both of them were covered in the smell of smoke and barbecue, which had not yet dissipated.
After taking a look at the sky outside, Pei Yu stood up and slowly put his clothes in order. Noticing the expression of Shen Li opposite him, the corners of his lips curled up.
It seems that Ali likes it very much, as she kept touching it and didn't let go.
Shen Li noticed the smile on his face but was not annoyed. It was a matter of time and nature, and it was all human nature. She had figured it out by now, so there was no need to be shy.
"I thought Ali couldn't bear to leave me!"
Hearing this, Shen Li curled her lips and revealed a bewitching smile, "I'm reluctant to leave, why don't you stay tonight~"
Pei Yu paused for a moment after hearing this, then quickened his pace to put on his clothes, "I don't want to leave either, I'm just afraid that Uncle Shen will chase me and beat me tomorrow morning."
Shen Li chuckled, "Good night."
"Good night."
Pei Yu walked out of the study. If he stayed a little longer, he would really not be able to leave tonight.
Ali is still deliberately teasing me. Humph, I'll just keep this in mind for now. There will be plenty of time to pay her back in the future.
……
Pei Yu stood with Shen Li, with the Shen family and Lu Jing beside them. As for Lu Nian, Lu Jing didn't want him to get involved in this matter, so he sent him away to play with Shen Xiaoya.
They are now at the back of Shen Li's yard. Except for Shen Li, everyone else is holding a hoe in their hands and there is a basket at their feet.
Shen Li looked at this scene with amusement, "I say, do you really have to collect it yourself?"
Shen Changshan: "Ali, you don't understand. I want to harvest such high-yield crops myself and take a look."
Lu Jing: "Well, uncle is right. For such an important matter, I still have to try it myself."
The others nodded, obviously agreeing with what they said. Shen Li looked at Pei Yu, "You want to do it yourself too?"
"Well, I also want to see if it is as productive as you said. I want to dig it out myself so I can tell the emperor later."
"Okay, okay, then you guys start. It's not enough here. There's more halfway up the mountain so you can experience enough."
Shen Li sat under the eaves at the back, where there was a table and chairs, with tea and snacks on the table. She sat there, eating and drinking while watching them busy themselves.
Shen Mochi was there too. He thought it was fun at first, but then he looked up inadvertently and saw Shen Li eating. Her movements were getting slower and slower, so he simply gave up, threw away the small bamboo basket in his hand, and ran under the eaves.
"Aunt, I want to eat too."
"You are aware of this." Shen Li reached out and touched the small hair on his head. She could only point to the basin beside her and said, "Wash your hands over there and come over here."
“Okay!”
The aunt and nephew sat there leisurely watching them busy. Tianqing stood aside. He originally wanted to go down, but was stopped by his master.
Now seeing this scene, his hands were itching and he stared at it carefully, trying to remember every scene in his mind and draw it for his brothers later.
He hasn't realized that he seems to be getting bolder and bolder. At the beginning, he didn't dare to do this when facing the unpredictable Pei Yu, but now he dares to touch the tiger's butt.
The open space at the back was not very big and it was harvested in a short time. Shen Li’s planting method was to plant potatoes at the bottom and corn at the top.
The group first used sickles to harvest the corn, and then picked up hoes to dig out all the potatoes.
When they put everything together, looking at the corn and potatoes in the baskets, everyone's faces were full of surprise and they couldn't hide their smiles.
Pei Yu's eyes sparkled with light, and he thought of many things at once, and even a smile appeared on his face, which he didn't usually have.
Lu Jing was also very happy. He didn't expect that the grain brought back by the caravan by accident was so high in yield. The credit for this must go to Ali and himself.
Then he thought about how to maximize the benefits of these things.
Seeing their surprised expressions, Shen Li stood up, patted the wrinkles on her clothes, and cleared her throat, "Everyone, have you had a good rest? The next place is waiting for you!"
"Okay, okay, we'll come over after we pack these things up."
"Come on, give me a hand and carry these inside and put them away."
Looking at the people who were busy again, Shen Li sat down and continued to wait. Not long after, a figure appeared in front of her.
Looking up, he immediately caught Pei Yu's strong and powerful forearms. He was putting down his sleeves with such graceful movements.
"Have you washed your hands? You won't do it later?"
Pei Yu brushed off the dirt on his body and said, "No, I already know. Let them have their fun later."
That being said, he has already arranged for ten guards to come over and help collect the things, to make sure that all of them are collected in the shortest possible time.
Not long after, they were moved to the fields halfway up the mountain. It was already late autumn and it would rain in a few days, so they had to take advantage of this time to harvest them.
Shen Changshan, Shen Jingyuan, Tianqing and others worked hard to harvest these two new things. They were working so hard that they didn't look tired at all.
Pei Yu stood beside Shen Li, looking at the scene in the distance and asked, "Ah Li, is there a big difference in the crops grown?"
He noticed it when it was dug out, but seeing that other people had no impression of it, he didn't say anything until they were alone, then he asked about it.
Shen Li shook her head. "I don't know either. They are all planted in the same way, but..."
"Just what, Ari."
"When I was selecting seeds, the seeds planted in those large jars were all large and plump seeds that I carefully selected. I don't know if this is the reason."
Pei Yu lowered his eyes for a few breaths, then looked up at her, "I think so."
After looking at him for a few seconds, Shen Li looked away. His eyes were too bright, as if he saw through everything.
"What do you plan to do with those seeds?"
"I will start by promoting these seeds next year. As for the excellent varieties I have, I will wait until I have more seeds before sending them to various states and counties."
Pei Yu held her hand and said nothing more. He already had the answer in his heart.
