Chapter 345: Weather Forecast

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Autumn harvest differed from spring plowing. It required good timing.

Taking advantage of the good weather and the bright sun, they needed to quickly harvest the mature rice and dry it in the sun, otherwise, if it rained, especially for several days in a row, it would be a complete waste.

Qiao Xuan was a bit sorry about not having been able to develop her abilities of forecasting the weather. By sensing the sensitive changes of plants to the weather and the amount of moisture in the air, she could predict whether there would be rain or not. Now she could only predict the weather changes half a day ahead.

But that was already good enough for this time of the year.

She was able to know the future weather conditions half a day in advance, and that could help everyone perfectly avoid showers and ensure that the recovered food would not be wet by the rain.

When the grains were recovered, the rain came down the following afternoon.

Qiao Xuan hurriedly told her family more than half an hour in advance that it might rain in a while, and the rice had to be quickly gathered and covered with something, or carried to the house or under the eaves.

Ms. Fang was a bit skeptical, but Shao Yunduan stressed that Qiao Xuan knew a bit about weather forecasts, and Ms. Fang was used to trusting Qiao Xuan. Thus she followed what she was told.

Qiao Xuan thought about the other families, and told Ms. Fang asked Shao Dalang to inform the others.

It was a very important thing for them to harvest since rain would ruin everything.

Shao Dalang was honest and when he passed on the message, people tended to believe him.

Hearing what Shao Dalang said, the villagers looked up and saw the shining sun, laughing at him.

“Yunlian, you must be confused. Look at the fine weather, how can it start to rain soon?”

“Yeah, don’t joke about it at this time.”

“What about your own home? You can’t have put the rice away!”

Shao Dalang found the message a bit confusing too. He laughed as he scratched his head. “Yeah we have, but the weather changes a lot and we need to be very careful.”

When Shao Dalang was gone, everyone started to get very confused and hesitant too.

“Is it real?”

“I don’t think Yunlian likes joking about…” “But what does he know? He is kind but he is not so capable.”

“Yeah, let’s just watch out for the weather.”

Soon the wind blasted, and the sunlight faded away.

Someone’s heart skipped a beat, and he started to put away the rice.

“We need to be careful about everything.”

“Yeah, it seems that Yunlian is right. I think the weather is changing too.”

“But isn’t it a normal change, it won’t rain, will it?”

So those who put away the rice had no problem with their crops because soon the rain poured down.

Those hesitant ones did not make it, and some rice was unfortunately wet.

They just hoped that the rain would not last for too long.

From that time on, some families, who had been in a good relationship with the first section of the family, kept their eyes on how the first section of the family moved. They would follow suit seeing when the first section of the family started to put away rice.

Therefore, after a while, the first section of the family became the indicator of weather.

Qiao Xuan did not stand out to say so, and when they were asked, they all said that it was Shao Yunduan who had learned that from books, and gained some knowledge about it..
