Chapter 1336: Chapter 1362: Livestock and Breeding Work
In early April, everyone continued to engage in farming work and awaited the seeds in the greenhouse fields to sprout.
The blueprint Nianyang presented was so beautiful that although some people found it unrealistic, others held on to hope.
If in the end it could indeed be achieved, everyone’s standard of living would rise to unimaginable heights.
Everyone put their full effort into work, not for the wages, but to prove themselves. As the famous saying goes, effort may not lead to a good result, but without effort, there will definitely be nothing.
Not only did the men have strong career ambitions, but women actually had even stronger ambitions, suppressed by the feudal thoughts passed down from ancestors, which made them want to achieve results even more.
In a little over a month, the construction team hired by Li Tingyan had already laid the foundations for a series of earthen guesthouses and began deep-level construction.
In the final stages, Nianyang changed the interior to a homestay style. Unlike traditional hotels and inns, it might lack luxurious facilities, but it lets people experience the local customs. Although the construction process was a bit troublesome, the end result would be very satisfactory.
Time flowed like water, and with her due date at the end of May, Nianyang finally found some leisure amidst busyness, starting to prepare the necessary items for childbirth in advance.
Although family members would send things over, since it would be the only time she would have a child in this life, Nianyang still wanted to prepare herself, making it more meaningful.
Even though it was her first time being a mom, Nianyang was very meticulous. She predicted she would have twins, so all the supplies for the children were prepared in double.
From small clothes and trousers to socks and diapers, all were chosen with Li Tingyan at the city mall.
Of course, there were also sheets for the newborns, which had to be made from the softest cotton to ensure comfort and avoid injuring their skin.
Afraid of missing something, Nianyang consulted with Saozi from the family compound who had experienced childbirth, and they told her everything a child would need.
Even a single diaper had to be washed clean, boiled in hot water, dried, and stored in a separate cabinet to ensure cleanliness without bacteria.
Besides preparing special items for the children, Nianyang also needed to prepare many things for herself.
During postpartum confinement, the body occasionally expels lochia, demanding changes of underwear and clothes multiple times a day, so she simply bought a box full.
Li Tingyan accompanied his wife throughout the buying and selecting process. The closer it got to the due date, the more nervous he became, fearing any accidents and keeping a close eye on his wife at all times.
Meanwhile, as Nianyang got busier, Kang Quan grew more anxious, even though he initially thought their efforts were in vain.
However, seeing how committed they were made him somewhat uneasy.
Kang Quan was very aware that if Li Tingyan’s plan succeeded, he certainly wouldn’t stand a chance.
He wanted to make some compensations, and Ni Jia advised him,
"Kang Quan, don’t let them fool you. I specifically went to their greenhouses at night to check.
Their seeds mostly aren’t suited for the current season, let alone considering the poor soil quality here.
Even seasonal crops struggle to grow, let alone off-season ones.
If nothing grows, they’ll suffer a huge loss; we’ll just wait and watch the show."
These words were deliberately spread, and the initially joyous crowd suddenly fell into unease and apprehension.
They were so focused on planting that they hadn’t noticed most of the seeds Nianyang planted were out-of-season.
