“Alright, alright.” Xue Dafu didn’t have any objections. He was just asking. “But you two are just kids. I don’t know how long it’ll take for you to dig up the seedlings of the raspberries. Wufu, tomorrow, go and help Xue Yan and Jiang Yue dig.”

Xue Wufu naturally agreed immediately.

Xue Yan continued to cooperate, “There will be three acres of land left after planting the raspberries. I will look around with Jiang Yue to see if there are any other wild plants. We can dig them up and plant them ourselves.”

“You guys can do as you see fit.” Xue Dafu and the others said. They were really just asking casually. However, if they could help, they would definitely help.

No matter what, the two precious children of their family were still young. If they were to really let these two children plant five acres of land by themselves, who knew how tired they would be?

The next day, after breakfast, Xue Yan carried a bamboo basket and a small shovel. He then held Jiang Yue’s hand with the other hand. They went to the river behind the house to dig for raspberries.

At this time, the seeds were still small and had not yet bloomed and borne fruit.

The riverside was a wild land, so there were many raspberries growing there.

The riverside was about ten meters away from their house.

There were many large rocks along the river, and the villagers went to the river to wash their clothes. On the other side of the river, there were also many big stones suitable for washing clothes, which were from the neighboring village.

Xue Wufu also carried a bamboo basket on his back, but it was much bigger than Xue Yan’s, and he also had a shovel in his hand. This shovel was also a bit bigger than the one in Xue Yan’s hand.

Jiang Yue didn’t carry a bamboo basket, and her family didn’t allow her to do so either, saying that she was too small. She was only allowed to carry a small shovel.

“Xue Yan, look after Jiang Yue. Don’t let her get too close to the river. I’ll go over there to dig around.” With that, Xue Wufu ran off in another direction like a monkey, carrying the bamboo basket.

Jiang Yue squatted down and dug around while whispering to Xue Yan, “These raspberry seeds and strawberry seeds are both from the rose family, so they look very similar.”

Xue Yan nodded, indicating that he understood.

He had already guessed that they looked similar, otherwise, she wouldn’t have asked him to dig for some raspberries.

“Then how many seeds do we have to dig out?” Xue Yan asked in a low voice.

“You have to plant them more densely. Usually, we’ll have to find about eight thousand sprouts to get the seeds,” Jiang Yue replied.

8000?

“Then we’ll have to dig for a few days,” Xue Yan said after a moment of silence.

It wasn’t like there was a large area. If they were to start now, they won’t be able to find that many. Fortunately, these things were everywhere, such as in the fields, on the mountains, on the fields, on the slopes, and so on. There were even many on both sides of the road to town.

As long as he spent some time digging, he could still dig up 8000 sprouts.

“With just the three of us, we’ll have to dig for a few days,” Jiang Yue nodded. Even if she didn’t dig like a child, she would have to dig for a few days.

“Let’s tell the others in the family to help dig as well, hurry up.”

“If they’re fine with it, we can ask them for help.”

“It’s not that busy at home now. Other than Yifuand Yu Hongyan, everyone else can help dig.”

“Yes, we’ll tell them later.”

“Okay.”
