If the answerers answer incorrectly, they will answer in turn. The best one wins. Alright, let's get back to business, please Everyone, please listen to the first question 'How to prevent pests and diseases?' Please answer." The host explained the rules of the competition with emotion.

"Please answer from the first brother on the left." The host replied to a young man in an indigo robe who raised his hand.

Wheat species: you can harvest them when they are ripe, choose the ones with big ears; Rotting wheat, peas, lentils, broad beans, mustard, green onions, Chrysanthemum chrysanthemum, white radishes, juicy and juiceless, rapeseed, round-leaf amaranth, etc. These crops have acrid and smelly odors, and pests avoid them.

"The indigo robed boy replied in one breath.

"It's amazing!" Qin Lan listened to the long list in a daze. Although she didn't understand it, she felt that it was amazing!

"Yes!" Mu Xuefei agreed.

Qin Shuyu heard Mu Xuefei's words, looked down at her and didn't say anything, but suddenly became a little alienated.

Mu Xuefei next to her was still watching the competition on stage with relish, only Qin Lan on the side glanced at her brother strangely, why did she suddenly get angry?But then his eyes were attracted by the speech of the host on the stage.

"...Okay, do you have any other opinions?" The host said in a daze after listening to the long list.

After hearing the host's words, the other contestants shook their heads.

"Okay then, I'll announce that the little brother won the first question." The host replied after looking down at the answer carefully.

"Okay, now please listen to the second question 'How to harvest?' Please answer." The host threw out the second question.

"Please answer the fifth contestant from the left." The host shouted.

"I only know that it is good to keep the good ones during the autumn harvest." The hunched middle-aged man said awkwardly.

"Okay, I don't know if anyone else has any other answers?" The host asked again.

"It is said in "Qi Min Yao Shu Volume [-] Harvesting Seeds [-]" that wheat seeds can be harvested when they are ripe, and those who choose ears with strong ears will be chopped off, and the dry places in the beam position will be exposed to extreme dryness. There is no order If there is white fish, there is noir to treat it." The young man in indigo robe just now continued to reply.

"Okay, I declare that both of them answered correctly, and now I will start the third question, 'How do I know which crops are suitable for planting?'"

"Eating depends on the sky, according to last year's reference."

"What do you want to grow?"

"How can there be such a topic? It's strange! It's getting trickier every year." No. 15 scholars on the left complained.

"It's all passed down from generation to generation."

"There is a saying in "Qi Min Yao Shu Volume [-] Harvesting Seeds [-]" that if you want to know the appropriate age, use cloth bags to hold millet and other species, measure them evenly, and bury them in the shade. Fifty days after the winter solstice, the Take the amount, the one with the most breath is suitable for the age." The indigo-robed boy replied.

"Congratulations to the first brother on the left for the correct answer." The host wiped his sweat after hearing the various answers, thinking that it was finally over.

"Okay, I'm announcing that the first guy on the left of this farming competition has all answered correctly, please stand in the middle to receive the award." The host said excitedly.

"It's amazing, you can answer this correctly." Mu Xuefei not only admired this young man, but also felt that the ancient sages could sum up such a truth, and she was sincerely in awe.

Qin Lan, who was about to agree, felt her brother's cold gaze, and shut her mouth in a sensible manner. Suddenly, she thought that her brother was angry because his sister-in-law praised other people just now!

The boy in the indigo robe came to the host with steady steps.

"I don't know what to call this little brother?" The host asked enthusiastically.

"My surname is Zhang Minghui." The indigo-robed boy saluted and replied.

"Congratulations, congratulations, I became the only contestant who answered all the questions correctly for three consecutive years, except for a set of farm tools, which is a special reward of 30 taels of silver, please keep it." The host smiled happily as if he had won the award.

"Thank you." Zhang Hui replied calmly.

"Okay, let's congratulate this little brother Zhang again." The host waited for Zhang Hui to receive the prize and said again.

"I declare that this farming conference has come to a successful conclusion. Please continue to enjoy the performance." The host said the concluding remarks enthusiastically.

"Is this the end? It's too hasty!" Mu Xuefei sighed and felt that it had just begun.

"Okay, we should go back when we go for a walk." Qin Shuyu said first.

"Sister-in-law, let's continue shopping." Qin Lan said hastily.

"Then let's go." Mu Xuefei replied.

The three of them walked slowly along the way, and bought all kinds of interesting food at the food stalls on the side of the road.Mu Xuefei and Qin Lan ate while shopping, and when they walked to the street unknowingly, they found that they were full.

"Shu Yu, let's go back! It's already very late." Mu Xuefei quietly touched her stuffed stomach and said.

"Sister-in-law, I'm so full!" said Qin Lan who was also full.

"Okay, let's go back, and you can digest food by the way." Qin Shuyu looked at the two who were eating happily along the way and said helplessly.

The three of them slowly moved away from the bustling county center, and the number of people on the street gradually decreased. Mu Xuefei looked at the rows of lit lanterns, and felt that she had a really happy day today because of the two of them. Accompanied, and I have become fettered and have a sense of belonging, and everything is developing in a good direction.

Mu Xuefei, who was thinking wildly, was called by Qin Shuyu, "Xuefei, why did you stop suddenly?"

"Shu Yu, Lan'er, I'm really happy today." Mu Xuefei asked inappropriately.

"Just be happy." Qin Shuyu didn't continue to ask.

"Sister-in-law, I had a great time too." Qin Lan said excitedly.

"Okay, let's go back to the inn!" Mu Xuefei shouted.

For the rest of the journey, the three returned to the inn silently, but the brisk footsteps of the three said everything.
