Transmigrated as a Stepmother: Time to Bring the Family to Prosper!-Chapter 352 - 351: My Eyes Are the Ruler

Liu Ji and his group proved with facts that the efficiency of farming doesn’t have much to do with the number of people.

Liu Ji took over ten guards and drivers to plant for a whole day, but couldn’t finish sowing all ten acres of wheat.

In the evening, Ah Wang brought the children home and checked the quality of the field on the way back, and returned home with a dark face.

Over a dozen people planted five acres, but at least two and a half acres needed reworking!

Ah Wang was very angry, and the consequences were serious.

But the eel tonight was really fragrant!

After the meal, everyone returned to their respective courtyards and fell asleep immediately. Qi Xian was so tired that he didn’t have the extra energy to think about other trivial matters, and he slept till dawn, with greatly improved sleep quality.

Liu Ji was already outside the Lotus Courtyard with farm tools early, and unable to resist his thick-skinned request, Qi Xian took Shi Tou and others with him to the fields, starting a busy day.

At this time, the two brothers didn’t know the seriousness of the situation, and they had fun digging in the field with hoes, you dig a pit and I plant seeds. The originally monotonous and boring repetitive actions surprisingly had some fun.

As they saw that the ten acres were about to be planted, the two brothers looked at each other and smiled, ready to clap their hands in celebration, when Ah Wang, who had returned to the village after sending the children to school, arrived on the scene.

Before Liu Ji could excitedly greet, Ah Wang approached Shi Tou with a stern face, and under Shi Tou’s shocked gaze, snatched the hoe from his hand, then dug open the crooked furrows in front of him.

The wheat seeds that had just been painstakingly buried were all dug out.

Ah Wang was very fast, really extremely fast, the hoe in his hand swung with afterimages, and in less than a quarter of an hour, he had smoothed out half an acre of land.

It was only then that Liu Ji reacted, angry as he rushed in front of Ah Wang and shouted, "Ah Wang, have you been cursed? We worked hard to plant those seeds, why are you digging them up?"

Ah Wang ignored him and continued digging. Liu Ji anxiously tried to snatch the hoe from him.

Ah Wang raised his eyebrows slightly, used a bit of force to pull, and Liu Ji fell flat on the ground, sitting there stunned, staring at him in shock.

Ah Wang glanced back casually, and Liu Ji felt as if he was stared at by the god of death, shivering all over, his lips trembling, squeezing out a sentence: "How dare you!"

He didn’t want to admit it, but he was startled by Ah Wang.

But in the blink of an eye, Ah Wang was the same seemingly silly Ah Wang again.

He reached out his hand, pulled Liu Ji up from the ground, and, without much emotion, said, "Replant."

"What?" Liu Ji couldn’t believe his ears.

Ah Wang repeated, concisely: "Plant again according to my way."

With that said, he immediately cleared out a demonstration patch for Liu Ji and others, pointing to the neat furrows and saying: "Plant like this, only then it’s qualified."

Shi Tou took a glance; it was neat and tidy, each row and line was straight, with identical spacing. He instinctively retorted: "How can this be possible..."

"Possible!" Ah Wang gave him a glance, his eyes persistent and sincere.

Shi Tou, rubbing his nose in frustration, looked at Liu Ji, "Mr. Liu, if your servant keeps making trouble like this, we’re leaving alright!"

Liu Ji patted Ah Wang on the arm, "I say, don’t be too serious, you can’t plant like that. No one in the village has ever planted the fields so neatly."

Ah Wang: "I am a person."

Liu Ji spread his hands, "Alright, you plant it yourself then."

He called Shi Tou and the others, let’s withdraw, just in time for a break, anyway, if Qin Yao asked, it wasn’t his fault.

"No one leaves." Ah Wang said with a serious expression.

Liu Ji didn’t take it seriously, thinking I’m your great master, and grabbed the hesitant junior brother, "Come on, let’s find the teacher to play chess."

"This might not be a good idea..." Qi Xian had just said the word "might" when Ah Wang suddenly appeared in front of them, the hoe in his hand horizontal, blocking their way.

Liu Ji raised an eyebrow, "You’ve turned against me!"

He reached out to grab the hoe handle, intending to move it aside, but as soon as his hand touched it, Ah Wang caught him, the horizontal hoe turned vertical, perfectly fitted into his palm.

Ah Wang’s broad iron palm caught his hand, taking both man and hoe straight to the field.

The furrowed field caused Liu Ji to stumble several times, about to fall, but Ah Wang held him so that his feet left the ground, and he didn’t fall.

Liu Ji stared in disbelief, "Didn’t you say you don’t know martial arts?"

Ah Wang, with innocent eyes wide open, replied simply: "No, I don’t."

Liu Ji looked at his feet in the air, are you joking when you call that not knowing?

Before, when he saw Qin Yao entrusting Da Lang to Ah Wang, Liu Ji thought it was just for Ah Wang to watch over Da Lang’s martial arts practice, thinking all the moves were pre-taught by Qin Yao.

Plus, every morning he only thought about memorizing books, and by the time he finished, Da Lang’s martial arts session was also over. Even though they lived under the same roof, he never witnessed Ah Wang practicing martial arts.

Coincidentally, everyone around knew that Ah Wang knew martial arts, but Qi Xian and others assumed that he, the master, knew as well, yet no one informed him.

It wasn’t until this moment, when his feet left the ground, that Liu Ji realized that everyone knew, except him!

Whether it was too shocking or too furious, Liu Ji momentarily forgot to resist.

Ah Wang placed him back onto his assigned plot of land, quickly returned, grabbing one guard at a time, distributing them across various regions in the field. Shoving a hoe and wheat seeds into their hands, directing them to follow his lead, managing everyone perfectly, including Qi Xian.

Liu Ji, unexpectedly feeling a pang of conscience, weakly reminded: "Ah Wang, he’s still a child."

Ah Wang responded with an "oh," picked Qi Xian out from the field, and placed him on the field ridge, "Then go play."

Qi Xian, overwhelmed, paused for a moment to process it, then sympathetically glanced at Liu Ji and the others in the field.

Grabbing the hoe, while picking out the previously sown wheat seeds, Liu Ji shamelessly said: "Ah Wang, what if I claimed I’m also a child, can you pick me out from the field?"

Ah Wang mercilessly answered: "No."

"Alright then." Boohoo, if I knew we had to start over, I would have planted properly from the start! Liu Ji wanted to cry but had no tears.

Shi Tou felt even more miserable, from a proper guard, he was now a farmer, forced by a certain someone’s threat of force, could only honestly follow his instructions to turn over the planted field and plant again.

But honestly, the professional touch was indeed different. The re-planted field was neat and tidy, perfectly square. Every line was one line; from a distance, it was pleasing to the eye.

Not sure which villager discovered it first, but by mid-afternoon, nearby villagers came specifically to watch, admiring the neat and beautiful fields, amazed that someone could plant a field like this.

Unfazed and steady, Ah Wang directed Liu Ji and the others meticulously, not tolerating even a slight deviation.

He said: "My eyes are the ruler, so don’t try to sloppily get through."

Liu Ji didn’t believe it and deliberately planted slightly askew. After waiting for a quarter of an hour, seeing that Ah Wang hadn’t appeared in front of him to correct it, just as he was about to smugly speak up in sarcasm,

the next second, a hoe appeared in front of him, gently straightening out the deliberate curve he made.

Liu Ji: Really speechless, family!
