Chapter 155 No One Knows
Xie Qifen’s words revealed a relaxed familiarity, and Su Yu admired her aunt’s resilience and spontaneity in coexisting harmoniously with nature.
"The rain last night was really heavy. I need to hurry and check if my family’s rice fields got flooded."
There was a hint of worry in Xie Qifen’s tone, indicating that the rice field, carrying her family’s hopes, was of great concern to her.
Su Yu gently patted her shoulder and responded with confidence, "Don’t worry, it should be fine."
In her view, plants in nature have an amazing capacity to adapt. Unless they encounter extremely harsh weather, they usually manage to survive the toughest conditions.
Following Xie Qifen’s steps, Su Yu arrived at a vast expanse of paddy fields, greeted by a delightful spread of greenery. Each plot of rice field looked like a meticulously painted green scroll, separated by narrow mud paths, orderly yet beautifully natural.
They walked along the winding field paths. After several twists and turns, Xie Qifen stopped, pointed at two lush, closely situated paddies, and said, "Look, those are yours, and they are growing strong."
Upon hearing this, Su Yu nodded appreciatively, taking in her surroundings with care, imprinting the geographical details in her heart.
Afterward, Xie Qifen also turned to walk towards her own rice field. For her, it was more than just land; it was the foundation of her family’s livelihood, and she could not afford to overlook any detail.
Su Yu scrutinized the rice plants. It was the initial phase of panicle initiation, and each seedling shone with a vibrant green, brimming with life and the promise of a bountiful harvest.
Several families came by one after another to check on their own rice’s growth. After a careful inspection and confirming everything was fine, they finally relaxed and began chatting casually.
