In the next two days, Chen Feng helped the Dalu family and began to cap the Dalu family's house.

It takes one day to cap, then wait for solidification, and then remove the formwork, which will take several days.

However, Master Awen's work is not heavy, so he doesn't spend much money.

By the time the big furnace is finished, Chen Feng will have experience.

However, Chen Feng's house needs to wait until the second season of food is planted before work can be completed.

After Dalu's house was topped off, he fixed the stove and installed the doors and windows, and it was basically done.

In rural areas, they don't pay much attention to whitewashing the walls and decorating them. The floorboards are smoothed with cement and gray sand, so that there are no longer pits in the dirt, and that's pretty much it.

However, Chen Feng saw it and said, "Why don't you paint the walls of your house to make them whiter, which will look better and brighter."

Dalu scratched his head and said with a smile: "Do you still...do you still want to do this?"

He is reluctant to spend money, after all, he thinks there will be many places to spend money in the future.

But Chen Feng thought, "Since you have grown out of your head, you don't need this little putty powder. Go find some and apply it on all sides. It doesn't matter whether you apply it on the outside or not. You should apply some on the inside."

Even Chen De persuaded him the same way when he saw it, "Just listen to Afeng. You have spent so much money to build a house, so it's not bad. If you don't have money, I have it here and I can lend it to you. You can pay me back when you have money in the future."

Daluo waved his hand quickly, "No, no, I still have money."

Although he had given a lot of money to his family before the family was separated, he kept most of it himself. Since he participated in it so many times later, he earned a lot, so he naturally had enough money to buy the materials.

"That's fine. Then go buy it, apply it, and then move in."

Da Lu smiled and nodded.

I'm not in a hurry to live in his house, the most important thing is the stove and bathing area.

Now that it was done and he could cook, he wasn't so worried.

Later, Dalu asked Chen Feng, "Brother Feng, when do you plan to start construction on your house? I will be free after I finish working at home."

Chen Feng waved his hand, "Don't worry, wait until I finish the work in the field."

He also asked Daluo to finish the work in his own field first.

Regarding the field, the Dalu family belongs to the three brothers and sisters. The land belonging to the parents is placed in the homes of the two brothers and sister-in-law.

Daluo doesn't care about this, since they have to take it if they don't want it, so it's better to give it to them. This way, my brother and sister-in-law have nothing to say.

Although his younger brothers and sisters are not as old as him, they are already sensible, so they are very active in working in the fields, cutting pig grass, lighting fires and boiling water, and will not make Daluo tired alone.

This is why Dalu would rather have his younger brothers and sisters follow him, not only so that they would no longer be oppressed like him, but they could also work well.

"You work hard and study hard. After you study in high school or college, you will be successful, and you won't have to be so tired in the farmland in the future." When farming, this is what Daluo said the most.

Although everyone is proud of their identity as farmers, they know more clearly that only by studying can they escape poverty.

The younger siblings were also obedient and promised their elder brother, "Third brother, we will work hard."

His younger brother even said: "Third brother, if I don't study anymore, I can just stay busy with you at home. Our family is divided, and life will be better in the future."

The younger brother and sister are young, but they are not stupid either. The family has been exploiting the third brother for many years, and they know it.

When the family was separated, he also wanted to follow his parents and let the third brother separate, but the third brother said that it might be difficult to separate the family without them.

So when they separated, he and his sister didn't speak, letting the third brother speak.

Dalu said with a smile: "What nonsense are you talking about? I want you to study hard. Only when you become knowledgeable in studying will your brother and I enjoy your blessings."

……

The construction of the Dalu family's house has come to an end. Chen Feng first planted the peanuts and then raised the sweet potatoes.

After the sweet potato seedlings are planted, only the seedlings in the rice field will grow up, and then they can be transplanted to the field.

However, while he was busy, Chen Feng thought of something and looked at Chen's mother who was also ridged.

"Mom, do you remember that when we were hoeing sweet potatoes, Tangtang pulled the sweet potatoes from the sweet potato seedlings before, and they seemed to grow better?"

Mother Chen looked up, but without waiting for her to speak, Tangtang, who was playing with ants next to her, heard the sound and said quickly: "Yes, it's good, it's good."

The two adults looked at Tangtang, and Chen Feng laughed, "Do you know what we are talking about?"

Tangtang tilted her head, "I know, talking about sweet potato, Tangtang knows."

She also pointed to her ears, "Tangtang's ears moved, she heard her."

Mother Chen also said: "It seems that it is like this. The sweet potato seedlings that were pulled out at that time were more uniform, and they were not like the others. They were big, small, and uneven."

As she spoke, she added, "I have heard people say before that cutting off the longer sweet potato seedlings is good for the sweet potatoes. Is it possible that this is really possible?"

Chen Feng nodded, "Well, at first I was worried that the sweet potatoes without seedlings would not grow well. Now it seems that maybe what you said before is right."

He looked at Tangtang on the side again, "In that case, how about we leave a few rows this year to try this method? If they can grow more evenly, that would be good."

Usually, the sweet potatoes they grow usually have three to five roots, some are large and some are small, the big ones weigh several kilograms, and the small ones are only as big as a finger.

If you are unlucky, you may only grow one big one.

In this way, there are large and small sweet potatoes, which are not so convenient to cook. The big ones are still raw, while the small ones are already ripe, and more firewood is consumed.

"If it were more uniform, it would be much easier to cook the sweet potatoes." Chen Feng smiled and imagined the wonderful things.

Mother Chen nodded, "You can do this. It may have unexpected effects. I have heard before that if you cut off some sweet potato seedlings, the sweet potatoes will not grow only seedlings but no roots. Let's try it. If it works well , we can do this every year in the future, and the sweet potato seedlings that grow can be fed to pigs."

In the past, they also cut sweet potato seedlings, but they usually cut less for fear of affecting the growth of sweet potatoes. Only when harvesting sweet potatoes, they would keep all the sweet potato seedlings. Some of them would be cooked fresh for the pigs to eat, and some would be dried in the sun. When there is nothing left to eat later, give it to the pigs.

However, they have a southern climate and are evergreen all year round, so they don't have to worry about the lack of pigweed.

After making the decision, Chen Feng planned to leave a few rows so that when the seedlings grow long, he can experiment.

Tangtang was on the side, listening to the adults' discussion, and finally said after a while, "Okay, okay, sweet potatoes can grow a lot."

Chen Feng laughed and said, "Okay, maybe what we Tangtang said is right. It will be a blessing in disguise when the time comes. We can still use a lot of sweet potato seedlings and grow more sweet potato cubs."

"Uh-huh."
