After everything was ready, Xiao Xian began planting the rice. Once the topsoil was spread, the dry nursery bed for the seedlings was preliminarily completed.
At that time, Zhu Shijun hadn't yet sown his rice.
Xiao Xian didn't say anything, but she was somewhat annoyed that Zhu Shijun didn't take her farm seriously. Upon learning that her grandfather was going to use the water method to cultivate rice seedlings, she, as if to act in opposition, adopted the dryland method. The different cultivation methods also meant different sowing times; by her calculations, she was a whole week ahead of Zhu Shijun's water-cultivated seedlings.
By mid-February, the seedlings that had been sown were ready to be transplanted at the beginning of March. From sowing to growing seedlings, there was someone even more anxious than Xiao Xian.
