Parents are busy farming

"You said you'd just run up the mountain day and night, but you still come back so late. Aren't you sincerely making us mothers worried?"

Fang Huzi listened to his wife's accusation. Not only was he not angry, he quickly apologized.

"I didn't think carefully. I should go home and tell you. Brother Gao Yi from the caravan is here today. We will go up to the mountain to dig saplings tomorrow. In order to dig faster, I just went to find someone to help."

After hearing his explanation, the family felt relieved, and then became excited again.

"The people from the caravan are here? But they are here. If these saplings are not transported for a day, I will not be able to live in peace for a day. This is not a small amount of money. I am worried all day long."

So why not Fang Huzi! Also, his younger brother and his family are still working under Miss Ye! He is worried about him too!

"That's right! You will have to work hard for our meals tomorrow at noon. Go get some money to buy some meat, and don't make it too shabby. As for the other money, the caravan will pay for it, so we don't have to worry."

Fang Huzi's wife immediately agreed upon hearing this. As long as she could get the saplings out, buying some meat was nothing! This is a sign of her man's ability.

Haven't you noticed that your man has become more energetic after returning from the mainland? Maybe better days are yet to come!

The family returned home and fetched water to wash their hands. Fang Huzi's wife took care of the children and fed them. Fang Huzi helped from time to time.

Go to bed after you're done.

Early the next morning, when Zhang Gaoyi drove two carriages to the village, he happened to see a lot of people gathered at the entrance of the village, as well as many bullock carts.

After seeing Zhang Gaoyi, Fang Huzi said: "Brother Gaoyi, we don't have horses here, so we can only use ox carts. Regardless of the ox cart, it is relatively powerful. Although it walks slowly, it should not be slow." too much!"

Zhang Gaoyi had already guessed this result, and he could accept it. Although the road was a little slower, it would take less time to pull over in one go than to run again.

However, he had to leave a few people behind to follow the ox cart, and the cart in front still had to rush back as quickly as possible.

But there is no rush for this. He will discuss it with everyone after he returns to the caravan tonight and make a decision.

"Okay, there's no problem with that."

Fang Huzi felt relieved again after hearing what Zhang Gaoyi said.

The people in the village were surprised when they saw two carriages approaching. They did not dare to look directly at Zhang Gaoyi, pretending to chat, but their eyes seemed to glance towards the two of them.

Zhang Gaoyi is also a villager, how could he not understand what they are thinking! I didn't take it to heart. Anyway, once you get to know them, you won't be cautious.

Fang Huzi called to the people at the entrance of the village and said, "Let's go up the mountain. Which sapling on the mountain needs to be dug has been marked by me a long time ago. I have removed the grass next to its roots. All you have to do is look around. Just dig out the grass, then put it on the bullock cart."

However, before setting off, Fang Huzi still reminded: "When digging, try to dig out all the roots. It is best to bring some soil on top, so that the transplanted saplings can survive more easily."

Everyone understood, and they started walking towards the back mountain.

Then Fang Huzi said to Zhang Gaoyi: "Because we stay on the road for a long time, I'm afraid that these saplings are short of water, so we'd better spray some water on the tree roots from time to time while on the road."

Zhang Gaoyi didn't understand this at all. Since Fang Huzi said this, he nodded.

After thinking for a while, he said: "Don't worry, you have followed the caravan and you know that the caravan will definitely rest near a water source every time it takes a rest, so spraying water should not be a big problem. Is spraying once a day enough?"

Fang Huzi thought for a moment and said: "It is best to spray twice a day, so as to ensure that there is no shortage of water!"

"Okay! Then twice a day. We have a lot of buckets on the caravan's carriage, so this won't be a problem at all."

The two of them did not stop while discussing.

The mountains here are not high, but they are just suitable for growing fruit trees. The plants on the mountains have not sprouted yet, so from a distance, the vegetation looks like withered trees.

But it also feels like it's starting to turn green.

Fang Huzi pointed to two of the hilltops and said to Zhang Gaoyi: "Did you see those two hills next to each other? Those are my family's. My father used to think that food could not be grown on the mountains, so he gave them to the two hills. Me. Thinking about how I felt at the time, I was quite desperate. Not only were they not given food, but they were also given two mountains that did not produce food."

Speaking of this, he smiled bitterly, obviously the old man was also dissatisfied with him.

"But there was nothing I could do. In the end, I finally tried my best and came up with a way to plant fruit trees on the mountain. I didn't know if it would work at the time, so I just planted it with the attitude of giving it a try. In the end, I was actually allowed to plant it. It’s done!”

At this time, his face looked a little complacent and lucky for the rest of his life.

Zhang Gaoyi didn't speak and kept listening quietly. He knew that Fang Huzi was also suffering.

"Later, when my stepmother saw it, she wanted to take it back. If she didn't give it, she would make trouble all day long, and then she directly exchanged it for the fields! Unfortunately, they didn't know how to plant fruit trees, and all the fruit trees on the mountain died in the first year. I eagerly want to replace them again. Looking at those dead fruit trees, you don’t know how distressed I am!”

These are all Fang Huzi's past, and he has never told anyone about them.

I don’t know what happened today, but I actually started talking to Zhang Gaoyi.

Seeing that Fang Huzi was silent, Zhang Gaoyi finally couldn't help but ask him: "Who did you learn this method of making fruit trees from?"

Fang Huzi shook his head: "I didn't learn from anyone, it was all accumulated through experience bit by bit. At the beginning, there was no harvest, but then I gradually gained a little bit, and then I encountered more things. The more experience I have accumulated, the better I will be.”

In fact, Zhang Gaoyi admired Fang Huzi very much. He was able to find a way out for himself in a desperate situation, which not everyone could do.

Many people just follow the elders or masters of the previous generation and do not know how to innovate on their own. At most, they can only meet the standards of their masters.

Only those who know how to innovate can reach a higher level. Innovation may take time, energy, and money, but you must always have a spirit of adventure.

This is also the secret why he and Ye Zifen are always attracted to each other.

When everyone came to the mountain, they saw that just as Fang Huzi said, the bottoms of some small trees had been cleaned up, and they only needed to dig out the saplings.

We didn’t need to worry about it anymore, and started to get started with shovels and hoes.

The people in the village are very simple and there is no lazy or slippery person.

Fang Huzi took advantage of this time and started weaving straw ropes from the wild grass nearby, because he felt that the soil probably needed to be fixed to the roots of the tree with straw ropes.

This is what he thought after seeing the roots of the tree.
